John Hunt Morgan led 2,400 Confederate soldiers who pushed through Tennessee, Kentucky, lndiana.aoid Ohio in 1862 and 1863, stealing.Jivestock. silverware . and other valuables. They were captured by Union. troops 111 Salineville in Columbiana County in eastern Ohio in July 1863. His 26-day ride came to be known as Morgan's Raid. At sites· around Meigs County in southeast Ohio, new bronze historic markers show the path Morgan and his troops took after they clashed with Union troop8 at Buffington Island in the Ohio River on July 19, 1863. . . Civil War buffs and state officials hope the rest of Morgan's palh · across Ohio, from the Indiana border near Cincinnati and north 'toward ·Canton, will gain new markers and visibility as part of a four-state John Hunt Morgan Heritage Trail. "ll's a wondert'\11 idea. ll'\1 definitely draw tourists in the state," said Margaret Parker, president of the Meigs County Historical Society. Her grolJP raised $11,000 and received a matching grant of $10,000 from the Ohio Office of Travel and Tourism. The money is ~elping with placement of new markers and signs across lhe county. - Parker said lhe society installed two new markers in April, and five more imi planned for lhis year. Dr. G.

' gearing up for Noah mania " By JIM FREEMAN · Tlmee-Sentlnel Staff POMEROY - Members o.f the Hillside Baptist Church are. gearing up for Noah mania. Last year, church members construct· cd an approximate Ill 0-scalc model of the ark .as recorded in the Biblical account of Noah. The chur<:h's Power in the Blood Ministry will use the mock-up to perform lhe story of Noah later this year. In addition, Noah is the subject of an upooming NBC movie. In the story of Noah, wriuen by Mosc:s, God told_Noah to b¥ild a large, llhip-like ark. to protect ~ii1amily from a great flood. He was, told to build the ark 300 cubits long. 50 cubits wide and 30 cubits high; large enough lo · contain two of every animal including seven of every clean animal. God then shul Noah and his family inlo· the ark, and caused it to rain for 40 days and nights, flOOding the world and killing those outside. _ The Rev. Dr: James Acree, pasto~ of ihe church, said the ark held 45,000 animals and was 547 feel long, 91 feel wide and 54 feel high. Friday afternoon, 5ome of the congre" galion were on hand portraying the account of Noah in advance of the NBC movie. Those present will be shown locally on WSAZ Channel 3 which wu on hand to film the portrayal. In ·Friday's portrayal, Noah and his wife, played by Bretl and Laura Russell of Lelarl, W. Va, go into the ark just as God closes the door, shutting out the sinners. Too late, the sinners realize lheir error and unsuCCessfully try to enler inlo the ark. Acree said the lessons taught by Noah •• one of the most popular stories in the Old Teshjment book of Genesis -- remain valuable today. "Noah and his family did exactly what God had _commanded of them," he said. "They were obedient to the word of God and being Jed by God built the ark in its entirety and on the day of the calling went in and the door was shut by God," "God delivered them from the flood NOAH AND H18 WIFE, portrayed by ar.tl •ncl Lllu,.

The obvious wisdom·is that you· do not engage in war without reasoned debate, which is done in . Congress, and you do not run a war by committee but by a Commander in Chief.

Sen. Mike De Wine, R-Ohio, also said he would ask the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to review its safety standards for the handling of beryllium. "We are not only concerned about people who have been injured in the past, but we're concemed about potential injuries in the future · and people who are in the workplace today," De Wine said in a story published Saturday by The Blade.

When the airstrikes began March 24, NATO pinpointed targets such as anti-aircraft batteries, radar and com munication sites, fue l depots and factories. , But hitting inside tiny hamlets in Connecticut-sized Kosovo, where Serb forces are setting fire to ethnic Albanian homes, has increased the danger to :Civilian's. · · . . ·: 'In most 20th century ·wars, civilian casualties have matched or exceeded :rpilitary combat deaths. : • More than 500,000 of Kosovo's approximately 1.8 million ethnic Alba- . :iiians have been driven out by Yugoslav Presidant Slobodan Milosevic's ·Glrces while 700,000 more were ousted from their homes but remain in the :i!rovince.

"This is only the beginning," said retired Air Force Col.' John Warden; who helped plan the allied air campaign during the Gulf War.

FilS!, Duke's Elton Brand declared himself eligible for the NBA draft. Brand is another in an increasing list of college athletes to go professional before they have had enough seasoning. Does the name Jimmy Jackson ring a bell? Yes. Brand is the college player of the year. He averaged 17.8 points and 9.8 'rebounds a game. He's big, physical and has great potential, but in the pros, play· · ers like Brand are a dime a dozen. Brand is no Tim Duncan or Keith Van Hom. He reminds me of Sacramen· to's Corliss Williamson, another former player of the year who left college early only to discover that at the next level the players are bigger, f~ter and stronger , than he. Brand may have been able to dominate the college court, but now he' ll have to contend with the Duncans, O' Neals and Ewings of the world. In this ,arena Brand will be dominated. Brand will get some playing time, however, with the new collecti~e bargain· . ing agreement it makes no sense for him to make the leap. Another year under Coach Krzyzewski would h.ave given him more playing time and made him a better player. Now he'll be sitting on the pine instead of playing on the court. The second major eyent in college basketball last Wednesday was Luke Recker announcing he was transferring from Indiana. Recker's announcement is just another case in point of why Indiana Coach Bob Knight should retire.. In th.e past two y,ears Neil Reed, Jason Collier and Recker, all starters, have left Knight's program early. For all its eXcitement, co llege ba,ketball is still just a game. It should ile fun. As I watched the Hoosiers play over the past few years I have noticed that : the players had been deprived of their enthusiasm for playing the game. It took . the "Generyll" only a year and a half to humiliate and destroy Collier's desire to ,play the game. This past year he led the ACC in scoring for Georgia Tech. Neil Reed complained about physical and verbal abuse before he transferred :to Southern Mississippi. Three yealll under Knight seemed like and eternity for . Reed. He was the only one of the three to address Knight as bein!lthe real prob· lem at Indiana. Recker is a different case. He grew up and dreamed of coming to Indiana and . .playing for Knight. He declared himself for Indiana two years before he arrived :=;on campus. He was Knight's earliest recruit and Mr. Basketball in Indiana in .; -1997. Like CoUier, Recker may not have told the primary reason he was leaving _. :Knight's program after only two years. · ·:: Recker said, "I blame no one but my~lf for this (not being satisfied with his :'development as a player) and believe my d~velopment will be best served in ::another program." Tell me. don't you see a tell all book by ,these ,players some •;time in the near future? Monica where are you? .;:. Let's not kid ourselves, Recker and Collier left because they couldn't take :: :anymore of Knight's abuse. During last season peOple asked me what was ;. ;wrong with the Hoosiers. My response was always, "Nothing Jason Collier :: ·couldn't have cured had be been treated like a person instead of an animal ." ·: Even pl~yers like Andre Patterson, who stayed four yealll under Knight and : now displays his talents for the Minnesota limberwolves, showed signs of stress : and defeat while playing at lndi~na. Only the great "General" can take a happy, : enthusiastic and talented player and destroy his confidence in less than six :: months. Look at the faces of the IU players. None of them show signs like .they ;. are having fun: ;: The game has past Knight by. The player.! today are not the same as those ·: who played for Knight in the 70's. It's time for him to face facts and go fishi ng. :. Maybe than the fun will return to Indiana basketball. · . ~OllT!tlA~T IJIII'UIIT~ Raiders rally to gain 8-6 softball victory vs. Point Pleasant CHES HIR E - Scqring in eath of the first three innings of Friday 's Southeastern Oh1o AthletiC League so ftball game at the Cheslure rail road track field s, the Ri ver Valley Raoders erased two Point Pleasant leads and rec~rded an 8-6 vJCtory over the Lady Kmghts.

Ye~ each year, throughout the United States budget restrictions have led to the reduction and elimination of music programs in classroomsincluding our own. , According to South Gallia High School Principal 11m Scarberry, his band program receives a very small amount of the yearly budget "On average they are allotted a couple hundred dollaJS a year." Scarberry wd . With this two hundred dollaJS the school must provide for th.f Marching Band, the Concert Band and the Choir. · River Valley Principal Pat Stout allots his music department $1,000 a year. "Thai may sound like a lo~ " Stout said, "but, after you buy sheet music, instruments, choir robes and so forth, it doesn't go a long way. We rely on the support of our band boosters to fi II in the gaps." The value of music in school is being ,questioned like never before; but, many people are still surprised to learn that children in band programs are learning more than just music. They are also learning the critical thinking skills needed in tod~y·s workforce. The majority of school children nationwide are w'lthout access to musical instruments that slimuiate the imagination, even though the benefits of music . and learning to play an ·instrument have proven positive effects on children's emotional, intellectual, and social growth. Over the past decade, educators, arts professionals, business and government leaders have questioned the traditional assumption that the arts serve primarily as a supplemental activity in schools. Mowand more, the arts are seen as a basic component in the education of all studen!S, helping young people to mas· ter important critical and creative thinking skills; and, to gain confidence in their ability to express themselves. In the late 19705 and 80s, music education in American public schools was at a low point. Instruction in music was thought of as a "frill," unworthy of seri· ous investment in educational time or money. Schools dropped their orchestras .or bands, stopped handing out instruments, eliminated classroom singing .and never exposed their pupils to the pleasures of hearing music, let alone perform- · ing it Fortunately, this allitude is now showing signs of change, with more and more schools reviving or stepping up their music and arts programs. Parents, too, seem tO be realizing that the arts are a part of a well-rounded education and are showing their support. · Case histories on file with the National Commission on Music Education uncover a link between the study of music and such critical work-plaa: perfor· mance factols .as self-estee'!l, ~·~·discip!ine, the ability to' work in groups_'!I'd higher cognitive and analytical sliin.They also show that stu<*tts w)to partici· pate in arts education courses score higher on the SAT's than those who do not Students with course work or experience in music performance scored 51 points higher on the verbal portion of the SAT and .39 points higher .on the math portion of the SAT than students with no course work experience in the arts. South Galli a Band Director, Travis Pierce, .knows the relationship is real. "Learning to play an instrument improves learning in other subjects." Pierce wd. "The small number of students I have gives me the opportunity to work with them individually, and make sure they're improving and becoming the best they can become- not only with the band, but with other subjects as well" Parents and music teachers are found to have important direct supportive · roles for students. In a recent study by the National COmmission for Music Education, students viewed their roles as band participants as a positive part of their identity. Students liked the recognition from both peers and adults for the outward trappings of band, like carrying an instrument and performing in con· certs. River Valley Band Director; Dave Colvin, is optimistic that enthusiasm and interest in band at River Valley will increase. He is 1=011vinced that the research linking band and academic performance speaks for itself and ~opes thai parents · will sland up and take notice. . , · "Participating in a music group alerts many of'the senses at once, while it ~aches the individual to think logically and creatively at the same time." Colvin wd. "It teaches self-control ... physically, mentally, and emotionally. 0\ildren learn commitment, dedication, teamwork, dependability, and respon.si· bility." ~ H ere mouth bass.

' Socialite who took vow of poverty poised to become saint BENSALEM, Pa. •(AP ) - A socialite and heiress to one of Philadelphia's largest fortunes, Kathartne Drexel could have had or done anything. What she chose instead as her life's work shocked high soctety but has her pmsed to become the second Amencan-bom • saint. The woman who lived a storybook youth of mansions, world travel and private tutors took a vow of poverty, entered the convent and uSC)! all of her $20 million inhentance to establish a miSsiOnary order dedicated to helping those treated the worst and regarded the least. . Supporters began touung her cause almost immediately after her death in 1955 at age 96. And a patr of mystenous healings - one confirmed, the other sttll bemg investigated - are drawtng her closer to satnthood. She would be the only Amencan-born saint besides Sisters of Chanty founder Ehzabeth Ann Seton, canonized in 1975. Four other people with U.S. tie's have reached beatification, whtch is the last step before satnthood: Mohawk Indian convert Katen Tekakwitha; Belgian-born pnest Damien de Veuster, who cared for lepers tn·Hawau; Sp~nish - born pnest Junipero Serra, who founded ntne Califorma mtssions, and Frenchborn nun Theodme Guerin, who founded the Ststers of Provtdence of St Mary of the Woods tn lnd1ana. Mother Drexel ts the closest to canonization of Amenca's 29 candidates , most of wlwm are decades away from samthood. "There's no wh1te ~mokc yet," sa1d Monsignor Alexander Palmien, vice postulator, or ol1icial advocate, for Mother Drexel's ca u~e for sainthood, refemng to the pl{;me that stgnals when a new pope ts chosen. He said he hoped canontzauon could come by the end ofthts year. She was beatt fied in 1988. Katharine Drexel was born in 1858 to a family of great wealth. Her father, Francts Drexel, was a banking magnate and business partner of J.P. Morgan Her uncle, Anthony Drexel, founded Drexel University. Young Katharine was a world traveler and a debutante but also was taught the importance of charity. The Drexels , devout Roman Cathohcs, belteved thetr wealth belonged to God, who entrusted it to them to care for the poor. In addition to monetary donations, the f~mily food, clothing and money three Urnes a week from their mansion in Phtladelphta's Rtttenhouse Square.neighborhood. When Francis Drexel died tn 1885, the family fortune was wonh $15 mtllion, the equivalent of about $250 milhon today. Though she and her two sisters were pursued by many suitors, Kath~rine was drawn to religious life. After she Joined the Ststers of Mercy in Pittsburgh in 1889 at the age of 30, The Ph!ladelphta Publtc Ledger ran the headline, " Miss Drexel Enters a Catholic ConventGives up Seven Mtlhon " The woman who once dre>sed tn the finest fashions now stitched her torn shoelaces back together. In 1891 , she founded what was then called Blessed Sacrament Stslers for Indians and Colored People The order's work was unpopular tn the early years; undeterred, Mother Drexel urged the nuns to pray for those who opposed them. The Ku Klux Klan on.ce threatened to burn one of the order's Southern schools and its church if the sisters didn't leave "Ltghtning .struck the (KKK) headquarters and burned 11 to the ground."

The look on Johnny Cash's face told you tbis is true. Ncar the end of TNT's tribute concert for the veteran singer at New :Yorli's Hammersfein Ballroom, the crowd stood and cheered Cash's per· formance of "Folsom Prison Blues." It wasn't clear beforehand whether Cash, hobbled by a nerve disorder, would sing publicly for the first· time in nearly a year. As the cheers washed over him, Cash stood with his eyes closed, as if ooaking in the warm rays of the sun. He's heard cheers thousands of times but this was clearly special. It seemed he wanted to bottle them for painful days when he's far from a stage. It was one of many memorable moments on "An All-Star Tribute to Johnny Cash," which was taped earlier this month and first airs on TNT Sunday at 8 p.m. ET/PT. · "It really inspired him," Cas~·s singer-song· writer daughter, Rosanne, said after the concert. " He said he felt like his feet never touched the ground. The crowd kind of lifted him up, the energy was so great." TNT has .hit upon a fi ne idea in the crowded world of music televisi n, tglllhc:ri,,g artists to pay tribute to some of the industry ~s veterans. e . ....;,.• began with Burt Bacharach last year, and is due to continue with the late Bob Marley next winter. . · Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, U2, Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow, Dave Matthews and Trisha Yearwood were oome of the artists who agreed to give musical tributes to Cash. Before his stark version of "Give My Love to Rose," Springsteen said he admired Cash for the way he blended the social consciousness of folk music, the humor and tragedy of country and the rebellion of rock ' n' roll . Dylan recalled the words of support he received when he unexpected· ly veered into country three decades ago and dueted with Cash on his " Nashville Skyline" album. " I want to ·thank you for standing up for me way back when,'' Dylan said. The tribute was instructive as well as respectful. Segments explained Cash's gospel roots, how he tried to stick up for society's downtrodden and how he rejuvenated his career in the 1990s with the help of a-former rap producer. . For all the big names, two of the most memorable performances were wholly unexpected. His wife, June Carter Cash, strummed an autoharp and sang "Ring of Fire," the song she wrote with Merle Kilgore when she was falling in love with Johnny. It's one of those signature oongs that has lost meaning with repetition. She emphasized the words and brought forth the foreboding that went along with the exhilaration. · " He was kind of scary at that time,'' she said. · Wyclef Jean of the Fugees donned on oversized black cowboy hat and strummed an acoustic guitar. He sang Cash's frightening song from the early 1990s, "Delia's Gone,'' about ·a man pacing ~n his prison cell, tor· mented by the mem\)ry of the wife he killed. Jean even added a rap inter.' . . . Though it wasn 't much of a fashion stretch in Manhattan, all of the per· formers paid a sartorial tribute to "the man in black" by wearing black. • Rosanne Cash wanted to sing " I Still Miss Someone,'' but throat prob· lems limited her to a short speaking role. Instead, Willie Nelson and £mmylou Harris both wa~ted to sing the song. The honor fell to Nelson. The concert taping brought together all seven of Cash's children for the time in a decade, which Rosanne said made for a "weepy" backstage scene. . As young anists in the 1980s, Ms. Cash and her sister, Carlene Carter, found it difficult to be Johnny 's daughter. " It 's like any young person in their 20s," Ms. Cash said. " You want to get as far away from your parents as you can to differentiate youiself. It was particularly hard with my dad because he was so public and we were April 11, 1111111 By SHANA McNALLY Aa.ocl•t.cl Preu Writer SE.AJTI.E (AP)- The term "ya· ya," for those unfamiliar with Louisiana, comes from the Creole term "gumbo ya·ya." which means everybody talking at the same time. These days, since Rebeclla Wells' book "Divine Secrets of the . Ya-Ya Sisterhood " hir the best-sellt!r lists, " ya-y a" also refers to a certain kind of woman. "A person who is afraid and still drinks of life very deeply, who climbs on the back of the elephant and rides,'' Wells says. "A ya-ya is perfectly imperfect and their biggest secret is their sense of humor." A ya-ya is also a little bit mischie· vous and a very supportive friend. "They 've quit holding in their stomachs and realized that life itself is a big banquet. They know that you can be happy while going through the sufferings that are an inseparable part of life,'' Wells said in an interview at her Seattle home overlooking Puget Sound: Her book, drawing heavily on her Louisiana upbringing, has inspired women around tile country. "Someone asked me once what a ya-ya was, and all I could answer was ... if you are one or know one, you wouldn't need to ask,'' says Liz Jack· son of Puyallup, who, like many oth· ers, started her own "ya-ya sister· hood" after reading Wells' book. 1 "When you meet one, you know you've met her, " Jackson says. The book's central theme is bond· ing ;md the support friends give to each other. "I think that I was very lonely for sisterhood when I was writing this book,'' says the elfin, auburn-haired Wells, who is in her 40s. "I wrote it because I wanted a group like the ya· yas. "It takes a really conscious deci· sion to make friendship a priority. You have to say, ~This is important to me. I'm going to give il time and love.' The book really taught me that, and my ya-y as began to emerge." "Divine Secrets,'' a tale of love and laughter set in Wells' native Louisiana tvrf, was published iq 1996 to so-so reviews and sales. Soon, though, there was a gmundsweU of interest. 1 The book has sold 2 million copies ' ; and has sat on the New York Times best-seller list for 56 weeks as word about it passes from mother to daugh· ter, from girlfrie~d to girlfriend. "That's what it's all about,'' Wells says as she moves from one plush sofa to another with seemingly..,boundless energy in a living room filled with photos by her husband, photographer Tom Schworer. "It's really girlfriends. It's girlfriends telling girlfriends." The book is about four friends who met as 6-year-olds when they are kicked out of a 1932 Shirley Temple look-alike contest for unladylike behavior. We follow them into their 60s as they live, learn, love and give birth to a new generation- the petite ya-yas. They give themselves nicknames - Vivi, Teensy, Caro and Neecie and look out for each other, sharing good times and bad. Their motto " Smoke, drink, never think" - is taken from a Billie Holiday oong. While she 'de11ies the book is autobiographical, Wells concedes some parts do reflect her upbringin~ on a plantation in Rapides Parish, popula· lion 17,000, where her family has lived since 1795. Wells doesn't share the vices of her four ya·yas, she notes in her Southern drawl. She drinks tea, not coffee, doesn't smoke and only drinks the occasional microbrew. "If I were to write my personal memoir it 'I!(Ould be totally different,'' ,')Vel!s says. . " I like to write fiction because it's like a country you can open and step into. When you are writing a pc;~nal memoir · you have to be fact\Jally true." , Jackton, her fan, prefers to believe Wells' ya-yas are based on real people. "I understand Rebeclla says this is a work of fiction, but having lived in the deep South, I tend to believe she met the true tribe of ya·YlJS and formed her own composite of them,'' she said. Movie rights to the book have been snapped up by Bette Midler 's All Girl Productions. Wells, who is not writing the screenplay, is open-minded about casting. . · "We all have our own pictures of these characters in our mind. The reader might have one picture while I might have a totally different one," . she said. "I write, but it's really your imagination meeting mine on the page that creates the picture." Wells' first book, "Uttle' Altars Everywhere,'' has enjoyed increased readership as a result of the succeso; of "Divine. Secret." Originally published in 1996 with 20,000 sales, the reissued paperback of "Uttle Altars Everywhere" has sold 800,000 copies. "Uttle Altars Everywhere," which won the 1992 Western States Book Award for fiction, focuses on petite ya-ya Siddalee Walker's 1960s effort to figure out the mysteries of Catbolicism and the cult of popularity in Louisiana. Wells considers it a companion book to "Divine Secrets." " Both teac~ that even if we don 't necessarily understand each other we do · have to love and accept each other," she says. "We have to learn to forgive the tiny murders of the soul that OCQir in every family. "Yes, Vivi hit her kids a couple of times, but she also instilled in them a sense of rapture and a joy for life," she says of one of the petite ya-yas, Walker's daughter. "We need to replace blame for what our parents didn't do with grati· tude for wharthey did do." Wells has · been commuting between Seattle and the town on which fictional Thornton, La., is based, gathering infonnation for her third book - whiJ:h is not about yayas, though she promises more on that theme. "It's the same world but a different culture in that world," Wells said. "It's easier to write about the cui· lure wl)en you're living in that world - eating that · gumbo, listening to swamp pop on the radio, hearing that little Cajun sound ia people's voices. Louisiana is just not like any other place." · Wells gradilated from Louisiana By HAL KNEEN POMEROY -Are you seei ng little white tcrits popping up ·in your trees?

(AP) - · Wisconsin's rural landscape is dominat· ed by corn fields , silos and dairy farms·. But experts say the fastest growing sector of the agriculture industiy uses tanks, ponds and nets. Sales of fish raised on Wisconsin farms are expected to grow nearly 60 percent within five years, 'in pan because the state's tradition of Friday fish fries has created a demand for perch fillets. . ' " It is an industry bulgin g at the seams to grow. The e~isring farm s now are not going to be able"to keep up with the demand," said David Gallon. president of the Wi sconsin Aquaculture Association. "Five years ago, people didn't know where to sell trout in Wisconsin. Five years later, they can' t produce enough." . A decade ago, Wisconsin had about 150 fish farms. Today. the state has about 265 that produce fis h for fopd, batt and restocking, said Bud .Sholts, director of aquaculture devel· opment for. the stare Agriculture Department.
