TViffre will be no flights of the air I hip today, but the weather man is promising a different brand of atmos pheric conditions for tomorrow and bun day. The management of the meet an ounces .that Mars will fly both Satur day and Sunday at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon. Repairs on the wrecked biplane, the "Kkvlark." have been completed Mara is feeling as "fit aa a fiddle," so all is in readiness to give the crowds ex citing exhibitions of the -work of a heavier-than-air machine, provided that xne weainer mau miuwa w uti u w talking about. J. C. Mars came into the office of the Kansas State Fair association this r.voming with a smiling face, and told of the style he is going to put on in the future. "I have now," said Mars, "special trunks at the station which will carry my machine, or machines, and the spare parts. I expect to have a special car in which my party will travel, or perhaps two cais. I will probably get a combination baggage, 4tnd passenger coach. Uniforms for Assistants. "For my employes I have ordered special uniforms, which of course pleases them. You might mention that five of the militiamen from Clay Cen ter have been helping me with the re pairing of the 'Skylark.' Without their assistance the repairs would not have been completed by this time. They are hard workers and excellent me chanics." These men belong to Company A, First infantry, and hail from Clay Cen ter. They are under the command of Captain G. K. Martin. It was fortunate, indeed, that there ware five skilled me chanics in the bunch. An electric light superintendent, telephone superintend ent, two auto agents, a tinner and plumber, make up the five men. They Plan Airship. The two auto men are known as the Longren Brothers and according to Captain Martin are contemplating making a flying machine for the use of the military company in carrying out war ideas. It is probable that the machine will be somewhat on the Curtiss type, but the Longren brothers have it figured out that they can improve upon the original. Captain Martin will imme diately organize an association to study aerial navigation. It now looks as though there would be no Topeka-Kansas City flight, but instead as though Lawrence would be the starting place for the cross coun try flight which will have its ending in Overland park, located on Kansas soil near Kansas City. Form State Bodies. "W. B. Strang, owner of the big park which is five miles square, was in To peka today. He is interested in the formation of state and local associa tions which will co-operate with the national organization, which now in cludes eleven state associations. Geo. M. Myers of Kansas City has been chosen as president. "What we want is that Kansas should have the first official cross country flight under the auspices of the national association," said Mr. Strang, this morning. "On Monday there will be a meeting at Jefferson City of a contest committee for the purpose of deciding upon regulations and rules. This committee will be chosen today or tomorrow." Many Visitors. Thursday afternoon Kansas avenue was crowded with people who had come to Topeka to see Mars fly. Tele phones at the State Journal office and the office of the State Fair association were kept busy bv Topeka people who had heard of the Wednesday evening and Thursday morning flights, and were eager to see the biplane in ac tion. Now the people have no doubt in re gard to the ability of Mars to fly and If the weather is fine Saturday and Sunday afternoons, there will un doubtedly be great crowds on hand for the flights. NEW MILK RECORD. Chief Josephine Makes an Average of 96.4 Pounds Per Day. Columbia, Mo., June 10. The world's record for milk production has been broken by Missouri Chief Jose phine, the prize cow of the college of agriculture of Missouri university. In the four months' contest, which ended yesterday, the total exceeds the past world's recond 10 per cent. Chief Josephine gave 11,536 pounds of milk in the four months. The production averaged 96.4 pounds a day for the 120 days. The cow that previously held the record was Colantha Fourth Johanna.

Kansas City Business Men Not Inter ested In Identification. Kansas City, June 10. The police and the bankers who lost large amounts when J. E.

While here he was photographed and measured by Lieut. H. E. Stege for police records. The two photographs show a smooth shav en young man whose age is recorded as 29 years. Marcell is ten years older and when he disappeared he wore a mustache. W. H. Winants of the Mercantile bank, one of the institutions that Mar cell swindled, said last night that the total amount obtained from all of the banks did not exceed $10,000. Reports of a year ago place it at $25,000. Mr. Winants said that as far as he knew there would be no attempt to prove the assertions of the Los Angeles po lice that Woodbury is Marcell. W. B. Williams, credit man for the Bunting-Stone Hardware company. representative of the Kansas City creditors said last night that nothing had been done to find Marcell since he left the city a year ago. Mr. Wil liams was sure that a detective would not be sent to Los Angeles to Identify Woodbury. Wife Hasn't Heard. Highland, Kan., June 9. Mrs. J. E. Marcell, the wife of the former bank er, said tonight she had heard nothing from Marcell since he left Kansas City. She has never been divorced from Marcell and lives here with her three children. "I do not care to discuss the subr ject,'" Mrs. Marcell said. "I know ab solutely nothing of the whereabouts of Mr. Marcell and, of course, I have no means of knowing who the man arrested at Los Angeles is." The Measurements Are Same. Los Angeles, Cal., June 10. Stead fastly denying that he is J. E. Mar cell, looter of the state bank of High land, Kan., who Is wanted in Kansas City on a charge of defrauding busi ness men of $10,000 James Andrew Woodbury was granted a continuance of his preliminary examination until next Tuesday. "Yes. you know they are trying to prove that I am Marcell, but I will prove that I am not," Woodbury said. Tedford Adams, who is In charge of the Identification bureau of the po lice department, asserts that the Ber tillon measurements of Marcell and Woodbury are identical. Woodbury's wife was in court today and manifest ed considerable interest In the pro ceedings. She married Woodbury here three months ago. EVIDENCE VOLUNTEERED.

Roosevelt and His Family Sail From Southampton On the SteamerKaiserin Auguste Tictoria for America. DUE TO ARRI VE JUNE 1 7 He Will Not Land Until the Fol lowing Morning. Last Day in England Spent in the Country. Southampton, June 10. Theodore Roosevelt is homeward bound today. Accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt, Ker mit and Ethel and Mrs. Nicholas Long worth, he sailed on the Hamburg American line steamship Kaiserin Au guste "Victoria shortly after noon. The steamer is due at quarantine on the night of June 17, but the former presi dent will not land in New York until the following morning. In company with Sir Edward Grey, the foreign secretary, Mr. Roosevelt spent the last night of his visit in Eng land at the Brockenhurst, a hotel in the vicinity of New Forest, Hampshire. He had been the guest of the foreign sec retary since yesterday morning and this lorenoon the two motored to South ampton. Here Mr. Roosevelt was Joined by the ethers .-.f his family who had remained ir London coming down on the boat train this morning. When the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria turned her prow westward this after noon, Mr. Roosevelt found hdmsaelf on the final lap of what in many respects has been the most remarkable trip ac complished by a private citizen. His Great Trip. At the head of the Smithsonian Af rican Scientific expedition, the former chief executive of the United States tailed on the steamier Hamburg from New York on March 23, 1909. Arriving at Naples he transferred to the steam er Admiral ad continued his journey, stopping at Metslr.a, where he met King Victor Emmanuel of Italy. The arrival at Mombasa was made on schedule time April 21. and soon after ward the hunting and educational ex pedition was begun and resulted in a great collection of African trophies. On March 14, Mr. Roosevelt emerged from the Jungle, arriving at Khartum where he met Mrs. Roosevelt and their daughter Ethel. The expedition had been disbanded late in the preceding r-.on.th. Throughout his African journey Mr. Roosevelt was accompanied by his son Kermit who went along as the official photographer of the party, but turned out to be a splendid shot. Following the hunt Mr. Roosevelt was ccupied with a series of speeches that have excited lively interest throughout the world. Also at this time was be gan a program of entertainments in his, honor, such as perhaps had nevii btea arranged for one who had retired to private life. At Cairo, he approved of the British rule and talked plainly to the nationalists. The Vatican Incident. Then foliowed tha exchanges with the Vatican which resulted in his aban donment of the requested aud'ience with the pope. Ait Pans he delivered an ad dress at the Sorbonne. At Chnstiania he addressed the Nobel prize commit tee on the subject of international peace. He spoke before royalty at Ber lin and was a guest of Emperor Will iam. Mr. Roosevelt's visit to Great Britain was marred by the death of King Ed ward. Unusual honors had been planned for him. As It was he went to London e.3 special American ambassador to the royal funeral. In nplte of tho curtail ment of his program at the British cap ital it was at Guild hall in the city of London, proper that (he made the speech that attracted more attention or at least more discussion, than any of the others of his addresses abroad. Here again he touched on British rule in Egypt and mildly criticized what he conceived to be a tendency to leniency not justified by the present political conddtio.is of the African dependency. His final day in England was one of seclusion and rest. He was the guest of Sir Edward Grey at the letter's home in Hampshire and together the two tramped for hours through New Forest, the ancient royal hunting grounds, rich in its fauna and flora. Farewell to England. Today Mr. Roosevelt said he had been refreshed by his trip in the country. He had been thoroughly worn out by his exertions since his arrival here. After joining his family, Mr. Roose velt proceeded to the steamship dock where he was greeted by the mayor and the sheriff of Southampton. To the mayor the former president said: "I would like to express through you, Mr. Mayor, my thanks to the reople of this country for the way in which I have been received and to say what pleasant memories I shall always re tain of the last portion of my sojourn in England. Of course it was begun under the saddest of circumstances. When I came as the representative of my people to express their sympathy for your country In its hour of afflic tion, I was glad to have the chance of being the American representative at such a time; and since then your people have received me with such -cordial and courteous hospitality that I can not sufficiently express my appreciation in words." After cordial farewells to Sir Edward Grey, Lieutenant Colonel Arthur H. Lee. formerly military attache of the British embassy at Washington, and other friends who had come to say good bye, the Roosevelts embarked on a tender and were carried out to the liner. The vessel sailed soon after they had gone aboard. Passengers on the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria gave Mr. Roosevelt a cordial reception wehn he went aboard. As the tender came alongside the band on steamer played "The Star Spangled Banner" and there was much cheer ing. Many of those on the steamer carried miniature American flags and the vessel itself was in holiday attire with colors flying from stem to stern. Family Leaves London. London, June 10. Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Mrs. Nicholas Longworth. Miss Ethel and Kermit Roosevelt left London on the boat train this morning to Join Mr. Roosevelt at Southampton, TOPEKA. KANSAS, JUNE 10, where they will take the steamer thl3 afternoon for New York. The Roose velt party will be carried home by the Hamburg-American liner Kaiserin Au guste Victoria. Mr. Roosevelt spent the night at tha New Forest home of Sir Edward Grey, foreign secretary. The departure of the others of the family from the rail way station here attracted a big crowd of friends who came to say good bye. These included American Ambassador and Mrs. Reid and others of the em bassy staff; Consul General Griffiths and Mrs. Griffiths and many American and English acquaintances of the fam ily. Theodore Roosevelt's visit to Eng land, though unfortunately coinciding with the period of national mourning, and for that reason shorn of much of the splendor which would have accom panied it under happier circumstances nevertheless has been one of the most noteworthy foreign visits paid to Great Britain's shores in recent years. In charateristic fashion. Colonel Roosevelt deprived Londoners of the option of giving him a send off. Be fore the people were aware of his in tention he had quietly left the city, not half a dozen persons knowing the time or the manner of his departure. It appears the 'colonel complained he had not had time to see a hundredth part of the country. He particularly wanted to walk through a typical Eng lish countryside. Accordingly Sir Ed ward Grey, the foreign secretary, gave him a friendly challenge to tramp through New Forest, a picturesque and romantic spot, near Southampton, full of geological and antiquary interest. Sir Edward is a keen angler and deeply interested in ornithology, and the two started yesterday on a long tramp through the woods. AGREEMENT IS REACHED Railroads Will Await Action of the Oomraerco Commission. Washington, June 10. At a con ference today between Chairman Knapp and Commissioner Clark of the interstate commerce commission, and representatives of railway lines in eastern classification territory an agreement was reached regarding rate Increases. The agreement provides that the railroads shall file with the commis sion supplementary tariffs in post ponement of the tariffs which they filed last week. This arrangement is made in compliance with the verbal agreement between the eastern rail way presidents and President Taft and to conform to the provisions In the pending railroad bill that the inter state commerce commission shall have authority to suspend general ad vances in rates, pending a determina tion by the commissioners of reason ableness of the proposed increases. The railroad officials expressed a desire to expedite consideration of the rate increases in every way pos sible. While no agreement was made on behalf of the commission, it was in timated that a final determination of the reasonableness of the rates filed necessarily would consume many months. It is certalrttat the com mission will be unable to begin the ac tive consideration of the advances be fore September, and it is deemed prob able that it will require the -greater part of next fall and winter to pass upon all phases of the rates now on file. The understanding Is that prior to the enactment of the pending railroad bill no additional freight rates will be filed by the eastern railroads. What they may be subsequently it is Impos sible to foresee, as they will be gov erned entirely by conditions as they are after August 1st. BOTH CLAIM CONTROL. Result of Iowa Factional Fight Is Still Undetermined. Des Moines, la.. June 10. With semi-official returns in from every county in the state, both the progres sives and the standpatters are claim ing control of the state convention, August 3. Frank D. Jackson in a statement declared that the stand patters would have a majority of at least 150. The progressive managers of the Garst-Dolllver-Cummins head quarters scoff at the claim and declare they will have a lead of 100. The convention will be made up of 1,383 delegates and it will take 692 to con trol it. The progressives declare thev have carried enough counties to warrant their claim of 650 delegates, and they believe the total will be increased to 800. Ex-Governor Jackson, when asked if the standpatters would pass reso lutions condemning the senators and insurgent congressmen replied: "There Is no disposition on our part to humble any one or to stir up any more trouble. I believe the conven tion will be satisfied to say nothing about Iowa and confine Its action to an endorsement of President Taft" Carroll's majority will reach almost 4,000. BODY IN A TRUNK Fishermen Discover Dead Woman in an Italian Lake. Como. Italy, June 10 Fishermen today discovered submerged in a lake near the vilage of Moltrasio, a trunk, which was found to contain the body of a woman believed by the-police to be an American. The woman's head Indicated that she had been murdered. The body was wrapped In a piece of cloth which bore the initials "C. L." The trunk also contained letters written In Eng lish and the photograph of a young woman, evidently the victim. It is re called that a young couple recently occupied a villa on the shore of the lake. Three days ago the two disap peared. The woman, snoke English. Her companion attempted French, but obviously it was not his native tongue. Mrs. Stevens Re-elected. Glasgow, June 10. At the closing meeting of the World's Women's Christian Temperance union today one hundred one-minute speeches were made, twenty-five of them by American delegates. The queen moth er, Alexandra, sent a telegram of sym pathy with the movement. The Countess of Carlisle and Mrs. Stevens, president of the American W. C. T. U., were re-elected president and vice president, respectively, of the union. 1910. TURNS HIM DOWN President Taft Eefuses to Re ceive Congressman Harrison. New Yorker Calls at White House With a Party. OTHERS ARE LET IN. Chief Executive Action Is Based on a Resolution. Criticising His Course in the Pinchot-Ballinger Matter. Washington, June 10. President Taft has declined to receive Repre sentative Francis Burton Harrison, Democrat of New York, who called at the White House in company with two other representatives to introduce a number of Jewish rabbis who took up with the president the question of expulsion of Jews from Russia. The president received the delega tl onnad chatted fifteen minutes or more. Representative Gold f ogle of New York acted as spokesman for the party, and so adroitly had the situa tion been handled by Secretary Nor ton that not one of the callers knew of the incident until Representative Harrison returned to the capltol and there announced he had been rebuff ed by the president. Mr. Taft based his refusal to see Mr. Harrison on statements attributed by newspapers to the representative in connection with his resolution in the house calling upon Attorney Gen eral Wickersham for full information as to the connection of his office with the Ballinger-Pinchot episode. Mr. Harrison, according to the White House version of the matter, charged the president and the attorney general with having wilfully attempted to mislead congress in the back-dating of the attorney general's summary of the Glavis charges against the secre tary of the interior. Mr. Harrison was first quoted as having said he could assign no reason for the president's action. He had made the engagement with the presi dent some ten days ago and had re ceived no intimation that his presence at the White House was undesirable. Norton's Version of It. Secretary Norton said the president had no purpose of publicly humiliat ing the congressman, as had been charged, and that nothing would have been said regarding the affair if Mr. Harrison himself had not made the matter public. Mr. Norton said it was indeed his understanding that Mr. Harrison expressly desired that noth ing be said. Mr. Norton said that during the con gressional receiving hour he noticed Representatives Harrison and Goldfogle of New York, and Representative Kehlleher of Massachusetts with the party of rabbis at the head of the line awaiting admission to the president's office. He spoke to all of the members of the party and a few moments later informed the president of the presence of the delegation. Mr. Taft announced that he would be glad to receive every member of the delegation but Mr. Har rison. He declared that because of the statements made by Mr. Harrison he did not desire to speak with him. Sec retary Norton thereupon invited Mr. Harrison into his office, saying he had some affairs to discuss with him. Mean time he had the party shown into the president's office at the appointed hour and asked Mr. Goldfogle to Introduce the callers in Mr. Harrison's absence. Mr. Norton asserted the president himself had not previous knowledgo that Mr. Harrison was to be one of his callers. The engagement had been made in the routine way, some ten days ago through the secretary's office. Harrison's Statement. Representative Harrison made the following statement: "It is unfortunate for the president that he can not stand criticism; it ia unfortunate for the country that he can not stand the truth. My news paper statement at which he takes of fense was merely an exposition of the scandalous fact that the president had sent to the senate of the United States an official document in the Ballinger Pinchot controversy of which the date had been wilfully falsified by being pre-dated. My resolution of inquiry drew out this information in a written confession by the attorney general. "It is of no concern to me that I am not welcome at the White House, but it is of concern to every American citizen that a statement of the truth about the president may make it Im possible for a representative to dis charge his duties. "I went to the White House today not as a matter of a pleasure, but in the execution of a public duty. I went by appointment made by the presi dential office on May 31, to present a delegation of distinguished Hebrews on an Important public mission. After a delay of 40 minutes, at the very door of the president's office, I was told that the president would not receive me. It is not surprising that he dil not care to face any one who was instrumental In bringing to light the desperate at tempt to bolster the administration case in the Ballinger-Pinchot matter by manipulating public documents. If every one who is justly criticizing the Taft administration is to be barred from the White House It will become a lonely place." Genera Biddle Is Dead. Berkley Springs, W. Va. June 10. Brigadier General James Biddle, U. S. A., retired, is dead at his home here today. General Biddle was born in Philadelphia, December 11, 1832. He served throughout the civil war and was brevetted brigadier general for gallant services. General Biddle spent most of his time in active, ser vice in the west and was distinguished as an Indian fighter, having partici pated In most or the Important cam paigns. Bride of a Day Killed. Arcon, Ia., June 10. Mrs. Marv Sherwood, a bride of a day, was run down and killed by an Illinois Central train in the yards here. The Sher woods were on their honeymoon trip. Sherwood was checking their baggage when his wife decided to take a stroll. She was run down while on her way back to the station. FRIDAY EVENING. WHERE IS W1LLARD? Aviator Can Not Bo Located Not In Topeka. "Where is Wlllard?" This is a question that has been asked time after time in Topeka dur ing the past few days. Well, nobody seems to know. Willard arrived in Topeka Thurs day morning of last week, and was interviewed Immediately by a State Journal reporter. The same day his four-cylinder biplane which he used in the Joplin meet arrived at the of fice of the Wells Fargo company, and that night, without consulting the management of the aviation meet, he ordered the aeroplane sent to Kansas City. Friday morning Wlllard was miss ing from the city, and he has failed to show up, notwithstanding the fact that Curtiss wired twice to the effect that he would be in the city in time to make flights. There are said to be a number of reasons for the peculiar move on the part of the aviator. He was- booked to fly In an eight-cylinder machine, but It seems that there was some de lay in getting the big aeroplane head ed in the direction of Topeka, and as it had not reached the city when Wil lard arrived he blamed Curtiss for the delay. Another story is that on account of the daring Mars having had the lion's share of the praise for the work done at the Joplin meet, Wlllard became jealous and consequently when the event came to an end the two were not on speaking terms. Mars has done the square thing In every particular and has proven him self to be a thorough gentleman. "I have never had dealings with a show man," said Secretary H. L. Cook of the Kansas State Fair association. In speaking of the aviator, "who seemed so eager to satisfy everybody concerned." Mars made the statement that he will get in three days of flying if it should take all summer. BAKERS ARE CALLED. They Testify for the Government In Bleached Flour Case. Kansas City, Mo.. June 10. Bakers occupied the stand as government wit nesses during the morning session of the bleached flour case in the federal court here today. Frank Westerman of Chicago on cross examination said he filed a com plaint with the secretary of agricul ture at Washington, D. C, when he decided that bleached flour gave his biscuits and crackers an undesirable flavor. He said he could not detect the dif ference in the odor of bleached and unbleached flour, but that he noticed a distinct difference in the odor of crackers made from the bleached and unbleached product. He said he sometimes stores his flour four or five weeks at a time and admitted that a "natural bleach" was discernible In flour that has not been bleached previously, after It had been stored. Alexander Taggart of Indianapolis testified that bread made from bleached flour did not have the rich flavor of bread made from unbleached flour. He said that crackers made from bleached flour were not brittle and did not dissolve In water readily. LETTER FROM ROOSEVELT Tells David Leahy He Anticipates Good Time in Kansas. David Leahy, secretary to Governor Stubbs, has just received an autograph letter from Theodore Roosevelt, of which he has a right to be Droud. as the colonel wrote it from London in the midst of his round of entertain ment in the English capital. Roose velt was born on tha same day and year that Leahy was, October 27, 1858, and makes mention of the fact in his letter, though Mr. Leahy had apprised him of the fact ten years ago.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOTTRNAS-FRIP AY EVENING, JUNE 10, 1910. AND THELASTJOO Topeka Is Nearly Shut Out by Wichita. Boles, Home Run Only Counter of Session. HIT JACKSON HARD. Handsome Charley Suffered From the Onslaught. Witches Registered Sixteen Hits Off His Delivery. Wichita, June 10. The Jobbers need ed that game yesterday very badly. With the Soos going against a double header at Des Moines the chances were two to one in favor of our going to the top if we won. Otherwise they were a million to nothing against us. So it was up to us to win, and this is the way we did it. Aitchison walked Thomason for a starter and Boles sent him to second with a sacrifice. Beilly grounded out to Westerzil and Landreth fanned. Koerner, Middleton and Claire went out in order on grounders to Reiliy, Kahl and Kunkle respectively. Aitchison threw Kerns out at first himself to open the second. Kunkle flew to Koerner and Kahl failed to con nect. Hughes waited for a. walk, went to third on Isbell's blow to center and home on Westerzil's drive to the samo place. Pettigrew bunted for a sacrifice but drew a popup to Jackson which made Izzy and "Tex" do some tail scratching to save a double. Shaw sent one bounding at Kunkle which caused both himself and Izzy to bite the dust, ending the session. The Sox had no better luck in the third, Harris whiffing, Jackson ground ing out to Hughes and Thomason being thrown out at second trying to steal after he had drawn his second pas.s. Aitchison hit to center to open for the Witches, but Koerner popped up a bunt and caused a double from Kerns to Landreth. Middleton hit to left, how. ever, and Claire, Hughes and Isbell fol lowed suit, bringing in two more to add to the collection. Westerzil ended it by forcing Izzy at second. Boles got the first hit of the gamo for the Sox to open the fourth, and made it count for their only score by shoving it past the scoreboard in right field for a homer. Reilly walked but Landreth flew to Pettigrew and Kerns sent one to lughes for a double, Claire and Isbell getting in on the fun. After Pettigrew had grounded a short and Shaw had whiffed, Aitchison drew a pass and Koerner got on through Jack son's error. Middleton ended it, how ever, by flying out to Landreth. Kunkle got the second hit off Aitch ison to open the fifth, but was out trying to pilfer the second bag. Kahl fanned and Harris grounded to West erzil. Claire opened the round for Wichita by flying to Boles, but Hughes singled and Izzy and Westerzil each hit for two, resulting in two more scratches on the mahogany. Pettigrew and Shaw grounded out to Reilly and Kahl. Topeka's last blow was furnished by Jackson to open the sixth, but he died at first, Thomason fanning. Boles fly ing to Middleton and Reilly to Hughe3. Aitchison struck out to start the frame for the locals, but Koerner walked and stole, Middleton singled and Claire hit for three bags. Hughes and Isbell each followed with singles. Westerzil forced Hughes at third, Pettigrew walked an! Phaw finished it by grounding to Reilly. Four hits, four scores. Landreth furnished Hughes an assist snd Izzy a putout in the seventh, Koerner grabbed Kerns' fly and Aitch ison handled Kunkle's bounder. Aitch ison flew to left. Koener grounded to first, Middleton hit to left and Claire. Aitchison was the whole show in the eighth, throwing Kahl out at first and whiffing Harris and Jackson. Hughes ITCHING OF SCALP INTOLERABLE Nearly Wild with PainM, Burning Eruption Half Her Hair Fell Out and Combing It Was Torture Feared Sha Would be Bald. IN DESPAIR UNTIL CURED BY CUTICURA Just about two years ago, some form f humor appeared on toy scalp. The beginning was a slight itching but it grew steadily wore until, when I combed my hair, the scalp became raw and the ends of the comb-tooth would be wet with blood. Moat of the time there was sn intolerable itching. In a painful, burning way, err much as a bad, raw burn, if deep, will itch and smart when first beginning to heal. Combing my hair was positive torture. My hair was long and tangled terribly because of the blood and scabs. This continued grow ing worse and over half my hair fell out. I was in despair, really afraid of becoming totally bald. Sometimes the pain was so great that, when parti ally awake, I would scratch the worst plaoes so that my finger-tips would be bloody. I could not sleep well and, after being asleep a short time, that awful stinging pain would commence and then I would wake up nearly wild with the torture. A nei ghbor said It must be salt rheum. Haying used Cuticura Soap merely as a tollei soap before, I now decided to order a set of the Cuticura Remedies Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills. I used them according to directions for perhaps six weeks, then left off, as the disease seemed to be eradicated. But toward spring, eighteen months ago, there was a slight return of the scalp humor. I com menced the Cuticura treatment at once, o bad very little trouble. On my scalp I used about one half a cake of Cuticura Soap and half a box of Cuticura Oint ment in all.- The first time I took six -or seven bottle of Cuticura Pills and, the last time three bottles neither an expensive or tedious treatment. Sinoe then I hair had no scalp trouble of any kind. Standing up, with my hair un bound, it comes to my knees and had It not been for Cuticura I should doubt less be wholly bald. This is a voluntary, unsolicited testi monial and I take pleasure in writing It, hoping bit experience may help some one else, iuss Lillian Brown, B.F. D. 1, Liberty, Me., Oct. 29, 1909."

In the ninth, Claire captured Thom- ason's popup, Middleton got the fancy catch of the day on Boles' low one to right and Hughes ended it by throw ing Reilly out at first. The Topeka team played the loosest game of the series, their three bobbles being costly, and two or three plays being rather freakish where errors could not be charged. Boles made a noble effort to-reach Westerzil's short liner to center in the fifth and got a inn as ine result or a daring dive for it, but was able to continue in the game. The score: WICHITA.

Sioux City at Lincoln. Des Moines at Omaha. Coaley's rainmakers arrived home this morning and If the weather mam permits aie probably playing this af ternoon with the Denver Bears. Cooley has been chased completely around the circuit by rain and on his first away from home trip it cost hdm some mon ey to have the dust layed for him on every diamond upon which he played but Omaha. But the Cooley tea.m is home, rain or shine, and the team has done well. After a disastrous start the team left home only a few games be low the .500 mark. The team has gone against every one of the seven other te&ms, on foreign grounds, is home again and only a few games below the .500 mark now. The team has some road games left for this month but will fight hard for an equal -share of the wins. Meanwhile help them tight en up a little closer to that .500 mark by stittend'ir.'g the games, making a noise and watching that the umpire does not give us the worst of it. Tppeka is de clared to be the "easiest" town in the league as far as poor umpiring goes. Games are called at 3:30 o'clock.. Sioux Cdty Tribune: The services of "Chick" Hartman are much in demand.

Des Moines Capital: The hammers pre out in St. Joseph. The papers there are aemandicg in their editorial col umns that Jack Holland ret some more pitchers. Here is what was said in on or the editorials; "The St. Joseph baseball team haa been slaughtered so frequently of late that it is time to arise and demand of Manager Holland that he atrengthen nis sxan at pawners. That the Drum mere have fallen from first to fourth place in the Western League standing Is humillaiUng to every local fan. Man ager Holland -canrot afford to ignore the sentiment tiere and should lose no time m strengthenine his weak daces. Isn't it to laugh? Boosters turn to KnocKers m one day In St. Joserh. It has been iredicted a! along that St. Jcseph would begin to fall and now that the elide hus begun St. Joe cannot stand the 'humiliation. At ihe start of the reason a, first division place was all that v.as desired. Now the fans there are demanding something better than fourth place. Denver Republican Denver lost the game to St. Joseph in one inning and as a result Pitcher Hagerman, who was in the box when the run-getting was Started, was indefinitely suspended by Manager Hendricks for failure to get into condition. "Scrappy Jack" is thoroughly out of humor with the way in which his slab artists have been working and Hager man's sentence is only a preliminary to what may be expected unless other members of the staff begin to use their arms as their past records warrant Hendricks in believing they should. Des Moines Register and Leader: "Ducky" Holmes has gone back to Sioux City and expects to remain there during the rest of the summer. Holms talked freely there concerning his re cent retirement from the position of manager of the Toledo team. Holmes says that Mrs. Armour, the wife of the owner of the club, interfered with the management so frequently that it made his position unbearable. A Des Moines business man telegraphed to "Ducky" iioimes a few days-ago, asking the former manager of the Sioux City team if he wanted the Des Moines franchise. If he did, the Des Moines man, whose name has not been divulged, intimated that he would buy it for him. Holmes, however, said that he didn't want the place. Bradbury of the Champions was left at home on this trip. He is said to be too good a catcher to be released so that Des Moines will have strings on mm until the end of the year all right. Stowers. a pitcher from Milwaukee, has Joined the Omaha team. Pa Rourke is trying to build up a team that will get out of the second division. He is having a hard time of it as his pitchers are not exactly dependable. Sioux City News: "Peaceful Bill" Dwyer is playing his usual steady game for Des Moines.;; Clyde Williams, tho Ames coach, is once more in the lineup of the Des Moines Ohamps. Da Alder man has been called to Tekemah, Neb., on account-of, h illness of his father. "Lincoln Jofr5nalt "The Lincoln -club played to. something like 2.800 naid admissions, a Sunday included, in the four darys at Des Moines. Only a week prior the Boosters had their whack at 6.000 admissions .for four Karnes in Lincoln and on three of the days the weather could not have been more abominable for baseball. The Iowa capital appears to glory in its reputation for being a dead ball town. Otherwise the business men would get together and work out a plan to give the Boosters something like decent support. Lincoln Journal: President Des pa In came down from Omaha yesterday evening and does not figure on rejoin ing the team during the remainder of its stay in Rourkeville. The prexy of the Antelopes relates that Lefty Davis is a finished ball player and, unquestionably, has. strengthened the team Ten vWiedeasaul has batted his way into the leadership of the -Antelopes' hitting department and has topped the .300 mark by a comfortable mar gin. A' silver nhower at Des Moines last Sunday netted Jack Dalton $16 in payment for' his home run smash in the ninth Inning. Battling Welch has been moved up to the fourth position in the Sioux City batting orders while First Baseman Stem has "been shoved down to sev enth. The battler was hitting poorly during the first i month of the cam paign, but of late he has been wallop ing after the fashion of Ty Cobb. Lincoln Journal: Billy Fox was missing from "the Omaha lineup and Grand Island Graham played second. thumping the, ball for two hits and making one error in four chances at second. If Graham's weak knee can stand up, ft 'is presumed that Pa will soon put Foi on the market. That 1400-per is more nan tne uraana magnate can stand. The humiliation of such- a fine ball player and splen did gentleman as Billy Fox is one of the tragedies of the year in the year In the Western league. Topeka in the tailend-position. Is less- than four and ft half games, behind the Packers. And Topeka is no snap for any club in the league to beat. In fact the Cooleyeox are apt to break loose any day with a winning streak and climb to the peak of the pile. The Western has the tightest pennant race of any professional organization in the land. The teams are evenly matched and every game-Js a battle. Des Moines Capital: if Owens and. gage keep iro to the form they have displayed so far-this year we think the time-worn talk about Miller and Lange will be forgotten. -With all due respect to the great -pair- of twirlers who did so much to win-the pennant for the Champs last year, .we think that Sage and Owens re -at least in their class. Now if Cates gets to going well, where Is there a trio of pitchers on any team In the league that has it on these three? i Des Moines Capital: Good-bye, Mr. j spencer. we nope wnen lhb icam comes home that you are in Halifax, Antos Kill Four In One Day.

TO CLOSE PARK THEATRE Vinewood House Dark Until Weather Changes Park Open. General Representative C. C. Math ews of Vinewood park, announced this morning that the park theater would close Saturday night and that the theater would remain dark for a week or more until weather conditions- Im proved. "The rain is hurting- every amuse ment enterprise in this section of thg country.'" said Mr. Mathews, "and it is useless for us to keep our theater open until the weather changes for the better. We are therefore going to close Vinewood theater. The play house will be re-opened Just as soon ns the weather allows. "The closing of the theater does not mean that the park gates will be shut. Vinewood park will be open every day rain or shine." Must Pay Government $10,000. New York, June 10.

El Paso, Tex., June 10. An exten sive forest fire is ravaging Curtiss can yon in the Sacramento mountains, de stroying much valuable timber. Saw mills and homes in the district are in danger. There has been no rain for many months and the fire is spreading rapidly. A force of men under Forest T'.n"-er Anderson is fighting the flames. Free Sample Aids Old Men The sudden change from years of activity of both body and mind to the quiet of later years causes the human system to undergo many changes, chief of which is in the digestive organs. It becomes harder and harder to get th bowls to move promptly and regularly and in consequence many elderly men suf fer not only from the basic trouble, con stipation, but from indigestion, headache, belching, sour stomach, drowsiness after eating and similar annoyances. It is first of all necessary to keep the bowels open and then to tone the digestive muscles so as to get them to again do their work naturally. A violent cathartic or purga tive is not only unnecessary but harm ful, and something mild will do the work Just &s well. After you have got through experiment ing with salts and pills and water of various kinds and have become convinced that they do only temporary good at best, then try Ir. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, a mild, pleasant, gentle-tasting laxative tonic that is especially adapted to the requirements of old people, women and children, and yet is effective enough for anybody. Your druggist, who has handled It successfully for a quarter of a cen tury, will sell you a bottle for fifty cents or one dollar, but if you want to make a test of it before spending any money send your name and address to Dr. Cald well and he will gladly send you a sample bottle free of charge. This remedy Is rapidly displacing- all other forms of medication for the cure of stomach, liver and bowel trouble, and families like Mr. O. F. Wisher's of Syca more, 111., and Mrs. Carrie Culler's of ?5 N.' Notre Dame street. South Bend. nd., are now never without It In the house. They have tested it and know Its grand value to every member of the family. Dr. Caldwell personally will be pleased to give you any medical advice you may desire for yourself or family pertaining to the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely free of charge. Explain your case in a letter and he will reply to you In detail. For the free sample simply send your tame and address on a postal card or otherwise. For either request the doctor's address Is Dr. W. B. Caldwell, S06, Caidwell building, MontlceUo. Ill, The aeroplane is repaired. Mr. Mars is scheduled to fly Satur day afternoon and Sunday and he wilt do it. The next thing on the program should be to take down the faded and wet colored bunting used in decorat ing for Merchants' week. Small boys In Topeka are already beginning to count the time until the Fourth of July. A number of stores already have fireworks on display. And Mars is no piker. If the weath er man would Just "come through" with a little decent weather. Mars would hang a reputation on the town. On account of the threatening weather the Y. W. C. A. automobile ride which was scheduled for this evening has been postponed for a week. There will probatly be no regular director of the Y. W. C. A. gymnasium appointed until the move Is made into the -new home sometime during the first of next year. July 2 is the date set for the open ing of the Y. W. C. A. summer camp at Wakarusa. There will be three sleeping tents of large size, a. dining pavilion, and a cook shack. A new commission house will be erect ed at the corner of Crane and Kansas avenue at a cost of about $20,000. It will contain storage rooms, banana room, -ind other modern facilities. The people living on Pine street be tween Tenth avenue and Fifteenth street have asked that this stretch be named Botwell street to conform with the streets on both sides of Elmhurst On account of the mistake made by' the assessors, the city commissioners have found it necessary to rescind their aetion on the Kenwood curb and gutter improvement and ao it a.11 over again. What will the disappointed mer chants say? They have nearly all gone home rainsoaked, but Topeka did all she could to keep them dry and spent a barrel of money for their entertainment. In spite of the date and the sche duled time the straw hats are still in he background. There hasn't been any good straw hat weather this year but there is a lot promised by the weather bureau. Although the militiamen did some effective work in policing the aviation field a few of the fellows were mere boys and hardly knew how to conduct themselves in the performance of ac tual duty. The Wolff Packing company has been granted permission from the city to close up Quincy street In preparation to the erection of their new iieven story reinforced concrete structure which will cost about $125,000. With a $4,000 deficit staring the big week" management in the face. twenty special deputies at $2 per day were withdrawn from duty on the aviation field last night. Three mount ed police .and the militia remain. The people on the Rock Island trains running past the aviation field were able to see both flights made by Avia tor Mars. People coming through from the east will think that the Kansas farmers do this on every alfalfa field. And now the Cooleysox tramp home in rubber boots to fret and fume about the weather. The wrath of the god of, rain hath surely wrought against the fair capital and the glory she sought to obtain seems to have re ceived the ha ha. Those who happened to drop in and witness the biplane flights Thursday morning may consider themselves lucky. From the recent weather ex hibited by the weather observer. Avi ator Mars will save money by renting a home and living here. Commissioner Bone Is a pessimist for the time being. This morning he said: "This weather proposition is a hard nut to crack. I bet that if To peka had avertised a motor boat race there wouldn't have been enough water in the river to water a horse." A certain newspaper chap, and a daring young woman also inclined in a literary way, who had planned to soar together in a flying machine are now Indulging in mutual lamentations over the fact of the poor prospects for the fulfillment of their ambition. The main question in Topeka at this time is "Did that Rock Island train create a vacuum and wreck the airship or were the air currents natural?" It s agreed, however, that tJie Rock Is and has broken the wreck record it has succeeded in wrecking a biplane. There is a sign in Garfield park which fays that free city band con certs will be gven there every Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening. The bend concerts in the city park a few blocks hls side of Garfield park are to be given en Monday evening. North Topeka s-hould be full of music this summer. Miss Lettia Hall of Franklin, Ind., has been chosen to act as associate Y. W. C. A. secretary, her work to com mence September 15. She will fill the vacancy made by the resignation of Miss Ella Cowglll. Miss Hall is a graduate of Franklin college, and the Y. W. C. A. training center at In dianapolis, Ind. Thirteen hundred was the total registration of merchants, who at tended the Merchants' week enter tainment, under the auspices of the Topeka Jobbers' and Manufacturers' association, although the officials of the organization estimate that there were at least 1,650 guests present. It was considered the most successful af fair of the kind yet given, and great praise is due President Geo. P. Mc Entire and his force of able assistants. THANKS TO THE W OMEN. Mrs. James Speyer Txoks After Horses Too Old for Duty. New York. June 10. Henceforth New York's veteran fire horses when hey arrive at an age which unfits them for active duty at the engines and trucks will be pensioned in easy berths in other city departments in stead of being auctioned off into a life of hard labor. This change has been brought about through the efforts of Mrs. James Speyer, president of the woman s auxiliary of the S. P. C. A. She decided a year ago to do some thing toward pensioning fire horses and cone jived the plan of a rest farm. She interested Mrs. Russell Sage and put the -case before Commissioner Waldo. He promptly decided, as a temporary method, at least, to turn superannuated animals over to certain city departments, where only light work would be required of them. The new regime went into force this week. Stewart M. Brlce Dead. New York, June 10. Stewart M. Brice of New York, son of the late Calvin S.

The news Is received In The Slate Jour nal bulldlne; over wires fov this sola otuv HOME NEWS WHILE AWAY. Subscribers of the State Journal nvtay during the summer may have the paper mailed regularly each clay to any address at the rate of ten cents ft week or thirty cents a month (by mail only.)

Advance payment Is requested on these short time subscriptions, to save bookkeeping expenses. Tropical blood is beginning to boil again in another locality. A revolt of the Indians in Yucatan Is now In progress. If the people of China would Investi gate the way in which most of the leg islatures in the world work out, per haps they would not be so desirous to have one established. Oxford students are a mightv smart lot if they were able to follow with complete understanding all that Col- j onel Roosevelt had to tell them about the "Biological Analogies in History." A movement has been launched by the North Carolina Press association to erect a substantial memorial to the late "Bill" Nye. All the other press associations In the country should lend their aid. Government reports show the condi tion of winter wheat on June 1 to com pare most favorably with the average condition for the past ten years. Sure ly the "crop killers" made a worse mess of it this year than usual. A Minnesota woman is suing for di vorce because her husband persists in flirting with an imaginary affinity in the spirit world. She ought to change her petition and ask for a div6rce on the grounds that her husband is insane. The oldest inhabitants are relating from hearsay that the year 1816 was a year without a summer, and they think 1910 is starting out to duplicate this feat. They should remember, though, that a fine summer, a brief one to be sure, occurred in March of this year. Some of the medals that have been pinned on Kansas as being the place where more or less freak legislation is suggested, properly belong on the bosom of Louisiana where a legislator has come to the front with a bill which seeks to suppress absolutely the play of bridge whist. From the reports now being brought into Topeka on the political conditions that exist in various sections of th2 state, it is evident that if there is not a decided change in one direclon or the other both Tom Wagstaff and Governor Stubbs are going to win the Republican nomination for governor by large ma jorities. Apparently there is never going to be an end to the North Polar controversy between Dr. Cook and Commander iPaary. Cook is reported to have brought a suit in Berlin to recover $10,000 from Peary in payment for bear skins and other polar products alleged to have been delivered to the com mander. South Dakota appears to have ail other localities bested In the number of brands of Republicanism that pre vails in its midst. The "independent" Republican candidate for governor was nominated at the recent primaries there. He defeated a "progressive" Republican candidate as well as a "stalwart" Republican candidate. Aviators have been barred from the privilege of taking out life insurance. This won't be much of a hardship on the successful ones. Every time they make a trip of any account they win small fortunes, that, will be able to keep the wolves from the doors of those who may 'be dependent upon them when the seemingly inevitable accident comes along. Taken singly a meat skewer is a rather insignificant splinter of wood and does not amount to much. But taken collectively, in such numbers, for Instance, as they are used in tha meat handled in New York city in a year, the skewers aggregate a weight of 587,602 pounds and are paid for by the con sumers at the average retail price of beef of 16 cents a pound, or about 1100, 000, not aw inconsiderable sum. Joe Mercer, the popular state live stock commissioner, is keen for that singing contest which has been sug gested between him and Billy Morgan, of Hutchinson, for a settlement of their oolitlcal differences. -Although, Joe is 3ijaed to be modest, he Is willing to admit that he was some singer when he was a boy and he does not think he has lost all the tricks of the art. As for Brother Morgan, he shines in any and every field. Let's have this con test .of song by all means. It will re lieve the monotony engendered by the furious letter-writing test whiph has been 'in progress since the campaign started. 1 LEGISLATIVE PAY. A penny wise and pound foolish at titude on the part of Kansans in the matter of paying salaries to their rep resentatives in the state legislature is undoubtedly responsible for the paucity of candidates for these important places in the public service. The pay that is given to members of the Kansas legis lature has been something of a sorry joke for years. It is scarcely suffi cient to cover the bare expanses of even the most frugal of them during their sojourn In Topeka. It is hardly as much per diem as a good mechanic can make with a hammer or a saw. Yet the people of Kansas expect men of the highest caliber and integrity in their communities to go to the trouble and expense of conducting campaigns for legislative office, take their seats and transact the vital affairs of state, maintain their establishments at home and pay their expenses in Topeka for a salary of $3 a day for 60 days and car fare to and from their homes. In other words the highest of public ser vice is demanded for ridiculously poor pay. That the time has come wihen such expectations are not going to be realiz ed to any great extent is being made apparent by the lack of interest which is being shown in many parts of the state in the matter of securing nomi nations for election to membership in the legislature. Few men are taking the trouble to seek them. They are not worth going after. It is impossible for a man to conduct a campaign for one of these offices, serve the required time it takes to discharge the duties faith fully, and come near breaking even on his expenses, unless he is of that type, of which, fortunately there do not seem to be many :n Kansas, who is willing to prostitute his honor and the in terests of his constituents by serving such interests in his legislative work as are willing to pay for the favors received. One of the propositions to be subnet ted to the voters at the coming elec tion concerns an increase In the pay of the state legislators. It is not a large increase nor will it turn legisla- live service into a money-making ven ture, or an employment that is desir able because it is lucrative. Similar 1 repositions have been submitted to the voters before, but always to be turned down. It would appear to be about time that favorable action, was taken in the3e premises. Certainly the -voters of Kansas can not rightly expect the men of large abilities in their neighborhoods. v.-ho could serve the state with distinc tion, to drop their work, enter on an expensive campaign for office and then devote much time and hard work to the service of the state, for a beggarly stipend that will not come near paying their expenses. It's a fine th'eory that rie-n should be willing- to serve their communities and their state for glory but it doesn't work out very, well in practice, nor should it. A WARNING. "History tells us," writes Professor Cyril G. Hopkins of the University of Illinois in the Popular Science Month ly for June, "that Roman agriculture declined until a bushel of seed brought only four bushels in the harvest de clined until the high civilization of the Mediterranean countries passed into the dark ases. which covered the face of the earth for a thousand years, un til the discovery of a new world brought new supplies of food, renewed prosperity, and new life and light to western Europe: but the dark ages still exist for most of our own Aryan race in Russia and in India, where, as an average, day by day, and year by year, more people are hungry than live in the United States,- where the average wage of a man is fifty cents a month, wnere iamine rages always, and where the price of wheat some times rises to a point where six months' wages of a working man are required to buy one bushel. This is the condition where the absolute needs of the population exceed the food sup ply; and just so sure as the intelligent and influential men and women of America continue to ignore the ma, terial foundation upon which national prosperity depends, just so sure will future dark ages blot out American civilization." TO REFORM CALENDAR. Fritz Reininghaus. of Zurich, Switzerland, has joined the ever in creasing ranks of reformers. A world wide custom is the object of "his solic itude. He wants to reform the cal endar as it now exists among all civi lized nations. He is just out with a circular letter telling of his plans. It occurs to him "that the present cal endar is a complex and perplexing af fair and that it oujthi to be simplified. So he proposes that the year be di vided into twelve entire months and two half-months; all entire months to consist of 28 days, and the half months of 14 days. The first of the two half-months will be placed at the end of the first half year and will be known as the "summer half month." The 365th and the leap year's day will be placed at the end of the year, and will be quite inde pendent of the week or month, so that these days will neither have the name nor the date of a week day. According to Mr. Reininghaus the advantages of such a calendar would be in its fixed and unchangeable place in the future. Each month would be gin on the same week-day, this also applying to each year, each half year and each quarter of the year. This division would make the week and month measures of time, because the units "year" and "month" would, by this means, become with an insigni ficant difference, complete multiples, always equal, of the time-unit "week," which is not the case at presents This is only a preliminary explanation of the expediency of the proposition. A more complete explanation is prom ised later on by Mr. Reinlnghaus. Perhaps it would be just as well if he did not take the trouble to make it. There may be merit to his sugges tions, but it is rather difficult to figure out why the present calendar should be changed, and the good old year divided up by, the insertion of the couple of half months without any distinctive names, and the ignoring en tirely of the: last day of each year and the rather mystic leap year day which comes around every four years. The present division of the year has nerved very satisfactorily for a long time. Of course that is no good ex cuse for maintaining it if a better sys tem can be worked, out, but Mr. Reininghaus does not appear to have delivered the goods in' this particular. JOURNAL, ENTRIES Anybody who Is inclined to consider the uses of adversity sweet has that Piivilege. In the game of love, many girls seem to prefer diamonds instead of hearts for trumps. To hear some people talk over the telephone you'd get an idea that they are real brave. The man who never complains is go ii;g to get more than his share of the worst of It. As a matter of fact, the silver lining to every cloud is generally on the wrong side of it. J A YHA WKER JOTS According to head writer on an es teemed contemporary, the officer in command of a U. S. gunboat is prop erly styled as a "general." "A Soldier of Fortune" is soon to be presented by the Thayer Dramatic club and the local paper is thoughtful enough to add the information that "eggs ar now 18 cents a dozen." In all probability, the most unpopu lar man in Salina these davs is, the assessor who has produced some fig ures to show that that town has lost in population during the past year. The Ottawa Herald is particular to point out that the flat rate of five cents which the Lawrence railway has made for a trip around the University Loop does not include going "through the university." Evidently that black bass which Professor Dyche says Mayor Davidson of Wichita says caught a bluejay and swallowed it whole, did net catch the bird in the accepted fashion which calls for the use of salt. The fish, is reported to have swallowed the bird head first. The Winfield Courier repeats for the bt nefit of the forgetful ones, Artemus Ward's story of the spinster who re quested a local magistrate to pronih'.t bathing in a certain cove near her home. "But ma'am," expostulated the aston ished mayor, "that is really quite a distance from your home." "Well," said the complainant, "I can see them with my opera glasses." A suggestion from the editor of the Herlngton Sun that he would like to get news when it is news is contained in the following: "The friends of this paper will please hand us in news items when they are fresh. We prefer not to publish a birth after the child is weaned, a marriage after the honey moon is over or the death of a man after his widow is married again." Over in Sedan the attorneys for the defense in a murder trial tried to get a new trial for their client on the ground that the jury which had sat on the case was influenced by a phono graph which- they heard w hile passing a jewelry store on the way to supper. Personally, we can't helD believing that they were influenced. After listen ing to the average talking machine a man would naturally want to send somebodv to the penitentiary. Coffey ville Earth. One of the latest contributions from the Spring Hill New Era's correspond ent at Snake Hill follows: "One day last week a lokle preecher kolled on Si Hooper and stopt fer dinner. While saddlin his horce after dinner the preecher axidentally diskovered a duz en long necked bottles in the manger and his susnichens were aroused im- mejutly.

TFrom the, Atchison Globe Idle men "often get up a row simply to have something to do. Farmers will finally quit trying to raise fruit and melons, the boys are so bad. Every man is disappointed at the smallness of the object a ministering friend pokes out of his eve. Airships will never be popular as a means of getting about until they can fly in wet weather. Railroad trains can do it. If a man has a pond cn his place in which he does not want the boys to swim, it causes him as much trouble as a watermelon tatch-. Mighty few people will keep up a correspondence on the strength of friendship: love and business are what make a postal system necessary. One- nice thing about the German carp (and perhaps ifis the only one) is that when you fish for them you are lucky if you don't catch them. Perhaps if the singers paid as much heed to the way the musical director swings his hands as the engineer does to the brakeman's motions, there would be fewer vocal wrecks and col lisions. Shortly after the girl sets the date her voung man begins to give a signal of distress to her father. He doesn't want a procession wedding, and will the father object? But the father knows the strength of the enemies guns, and responds that it is no use. Benjamin Franklin once said that want of care does us more damage than want of knowledge. This rule ap olies with particular force to human health. Not one man in a hundred, or woman either, but knows how to take care of himself better than he does.

KANSAS COMMENT EDWIN GOULD. JR. Because young Edwin Gould, jr., had some spunk, and set out to walk s miles, with only 75 cents in his pocket, the fact is brought to the at tention of the community that there is one branch of the Gould family, be sides Helen Gould, which has not gpne entirely to tha bad on account of its money. Edwin Gould, sr.. seems to be a man of sense. He sent his boy to school and did not load him down with money. The cash assets of young Edwin Gould, it appears, were limited to six bits. But ne wanted to go home. He possibly was not satisfied with the wav things were going at school. So he started out to walk home a distance of 75 miles. A boy that will do that has some gumption. If his millionaire daddy had kept his pockets full of money all the time, the chances are he would not have been able to raise, a, boy of so much spirit and backbone. Too much money makes a very joy ful time for a boy, but nine times out oi ten, it spoils him for real use. It is not merely the millionaire fath ers who give their sons too much money. Kind and loving parents are making tne same mistake right' here In Saline county. The amount of money which a boy can safely stand is a relative quantity. When the boy has more money given him than most of the other boys of his crowd, he is in danger. Boys ought to have money to spend but they ought to 'earn it. Then they will appreciate it. The system of subsidizing a boy with an "allowance" is likely to prove disastrous. And- evidently the Edwin Gould system of raising boys is to elimin ate the allowance. A boy with only 75 cents in his pocket and spunk enough to set out to walk 75 miles, gives promise of future greatness for the Gould family. Salina Journal. THE COMMON SENSE OF IT. Don't forget that the railroads are useful, and that they are doing much for the country. Don't forget that the people must be fair with the railroads, or business will be injured: you can't afford to save ten dollars a year in re duced freight rates, and lose a hundred dollars a year because of dull business and dull times. The candidates for office have car ried abuse of railroads too far. But as a fair man, you should remember that the railroads have done much to de velop the country; that the prosperity of the country largely depends on the railroads, because they are the largest employers of labor; that good times depend upon the railroads, because they are the largest purchasers of sup plies. Therefore don't assist in pushing the railroads to a point where they will be compelled to adopt a retrenchment policy, and precipitate a period of hard times. Two years ago, the corporations were pushed so hard by the politicians that there was A pane, r You may recall that during this panic, every bank in the United States practically suspended payment for a few weeks. Another election Is approaching,, and the politicians are again in full cry at the heels of the railroads. The politi cians are not as useful to the country as the railroads are. We own no railroad stocks: we have very little railroad advertising, bu we believe we can .see- that the great cor porations which are so important to the prosperity of the Globe and the coun try, are being unfairly obtained and hampered by the candidates, and news papers pryited in the interest of candi dates. The "Square Deal which we talk so much about is not being given the rail roads here lately. Atchison Globe. FROM OTHER PENS THE HUCKLEBERRY. We are of the impression that it will gratify some thousands of readers of sound taste to learn that, by all ac counts, and from -many points of ob servation, this is likely to prove a rec ord year for the admirable blue, or whortle. or as we know it best huckleberry. Whatever may have happened to the wheat in the west it is certain the small fruits in the east --and the huckleberry foremost of all flourish amazingly this season, for the delight of a people tired of high prices. There is a berry which Is too proud to ask for cultivation; It just grows, like Topsy, and like the dispensation of salt, as asseverated by Proctor Knott in the house of representatives, it "is one of the grandest free gifts vouchsafed by God to man." The modest huckleberry, plucked on the mountain side, in the lonely woods of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, sells (or shall, it is probable this summer) at a ridiculous rate a pail; and yet when treated by the artist hand it makes a pudding that puts the haughty plum to the blush. Moreover, judicious ly mixed with rich cream and sugar, it swallows bravely, as nature made it. Philadelphia Press. PROSPECTS FOR ARBITRATION. The public sentiment upon no sub ject has grown with such strength and rapidity as the sentiment for arbitra tion and the consequent disarmament of nations. The war crowd seems to be In full retreat, though they are making a desperate stand at Washing ton, where the red blossom of war is always in bloom. The secretary of state believes that the international tribunal for the set tlement of all disputes between na tions will be agreed upon in the near future. The whole world is getting ready for the great event, when civili zation will come to its own. It is quite probable that this nation has made its last great appropriation for a navy. In his prediction. Secretary Knox doesn't limit the subjects for adjust ment before an international tribunal by excluding questions of honor. It was a great piece of flamboyant self exploitation that threw out points of honor from arbitral adjudication, but if there are any issues that, more than others, should be disposed of by arbi tration, it is just such disputes that seem to Involve a cuetion of honor. Yet this honor matter was the worst obstacle arbitration had to encounter. Ohio State Journal.

(By Dorothy Blackmore.) Faith Airless stood over .the minia ture gas stove behind the screen in her studio. She hummed to herself as she turned over the fast-browning mushrooms in the pan before her and kept a watchful eye on the steak broiling so evenly beneath the flame on the other side. Suddenly her song stopped and the gentle sizzling of the juices and the bubbling of the butter stopped with it. The gas had gone. 3he turn ed in dismay to her little purse hang, ing on a chair nearby. It was as she thought there was not a quarter there for the gas meter. She had nothing but a $5 bill nothing larger nor smaller. She looked about helplessly, and then her eyes fell on the half-cooked food on the tiny table so crowdedly laid for three. It was a gala day for Faith or it was to have been a gala day! For the first time since she had left her home back in the country town her father and mother were coming to visit .her and her studio. They were to arrive In time for din ner and now! All at once an idea flashed through her mind. She caught up the dainty dotted Swiss apron with its dainty blue bows and ran across the hall, holding it to one side. She felt conscious in this sort of domestic apron, whereas she was entirely at home in the big enveloping apron in which she work ed at her easel all day.. Timidly she shook the antique brass knocker on the door across the hall. "Come in," called a deep masculine voice. Faith opened the door and looked about. She could see nothing but the lower extremities of a man be neath a large canvas on an easel. She stood for a moment, hesitating to enter. "Come in." called the voice again, then a head peered around the side of the canvas. "Oh, please forgive me," the young man hastened to say, coming toward Faith. "I thought it was one of the fellows. Do come in," he added hospitably. "Oh. I can't stay a moment, Mr. Melville. I I'm in such a predica ment," she explained, extending, at the same time, a $5 bill. "Could you change this?" she asked. If young Guy Melville's eyes looked large and hungrily at the unfamiliar greenback he tried to conceal it. "I'm afraid I can't." He felt in his pockets, searched in all parts of his work' jack et, but could find only a quarter. This he extracted. "I have only a quarter in small change," he said. "That's just what I want what I need," Faith cried, looing eagerly at the coveted silver bit. "My meter is out and I have mushrooms and steak on the fire cooking. Mother and fath er are coming." "Then by all means take this," Mel ville insisted, "and let me come to collect it some other time. No no, keep the bill. It would be lonely here," he laughed. "If it weren't absolutely necessary that I have It Immediately I should not take it," Faith went on; "but by the time I could get on my things and go out for change the little dinner would be ruined. I must run as it it. It's a queer- introduction, and I'm afraid you'll have a bad opinion of me," she said as she crossed the hall. "Manv. many thanks."- Melville, deep in study over the charm of his neighbor, forgot to close his studio door, and when two elderly person wandered strangely into the great dark hall of the studio building in search of Faith Airless and her room they were sure the open door was hers. They hesitated a moment before entering. Then, held by a voice inside, they stood on the thresh old. "That you. Tommy? a masculine voice was saying In loud tones, as if talking over a telephone. "Sure! It's Guy. And I want you to blow me to dinner. Haven't a cent No no just loaned my last quarter. WTell. I guess I can starve for one night, then. Sorry you have a date. So long, old man. So long." Then some one hung up a receiver and the two old persons looked at each other. "Must be the wrong room," said the man. "Oh, here we are," cried Mrs. Ar liss. opening the opposite door in which she had discovered a tiny brass name plate bearing- her daughter's name. "Here we are and here is Faith!" "Well, bless your heart, daughter, we've found you at last," said the fath er, taking Faith in his arms and giv ing her a generous paternal hug. "We mighty near got into the wrong room." "Yes the poor young man across the hall was telephoning to some one that he had just given away his last quarter and hadn't a bite to eat. Faith, dearie, I hope you never get that way. I've read about this studio life in New York and of how -young artists often go hungry," the elder woman was saying. "Never fear. mother," said Faith, from the stove where she was taking up the now thoroughly cooked repast. But, the joy had gone from her eyes she had taken the poor man's last quarter! She did not want to explain, right away, to her mother and father that she had been compelled to go to a strange man across the hall to bor row a quarter with which to have gas enough to finish cooking the dinner. They might not understand at first and it really naa not Deen ner m tention to borrow the money. By the time the little meal was on the table the thought weighed so heavily upon her that she could not sit down to enjoy it. At last, she summoned courage to explain the wnoie matter to ner parents and it was with difficulty that she re strained her father from running im mediately to the door of Melville to drag him boldly to the table to join them. "It will be far better for me to go," she expostulated. "I can be tactful. He may feel a delicacy about it." "Yes let Faith cn the mAther added. "She's used to city ways." This time it was without an apron that Faith knocked at the opposite aoor. it took her fullv ten minutes to persuade, the young man to Join the little party and eat a portion of the meal he had been influential in saving. But, at last he was induced to go, and Faith waited while he changed his studio coat and Dut a touch or two to his toilet. The merry little party sat about the studio until the logs In the old fire place had crumpled to ashes and the roiks rrom the country had begun to wonder what the hour might be. When Melville rose to eo Faith's father shook his hand warmly. "I snau leave my little girl a stack of quarters when I go back to Home town," he said, "so you needn't be afraid she'll be borrowing any more." jso. indeed, she mustn t." Mrs. Ar liss interjected. "She mustn't get Into the borrowing habit, even If she does live in a studio." Faith'' blushed and turned toward young Melville. "You see they are all in sympathy with you." she laughed. "If they were," the young man said, pointedly, "they would never leave you a stack of quarters, for how In mat case can I ever expect to be come acquainted?" I still have this one to pay back; Faith reminded him, as she stood in the studio door while he unlocked his own. "No" he held up his hand in re monstrance. "Please don't mention that. Just let me come to see you and we'll say I bought my meal with the quarter." But Faith did return the money. She said afterward, that she always would .have felt that he sought her studio so frequently because he hoped to get back his quarter and she ore ferred to have a better understanding or his intentions. (Copyrighted 1910 by Associated taterary Press.) Squally Weather Imminent. On one occasion Profr- Willis Luther Moore, head of the United States weather bureau, traveled from Wash ington to New York in a smoking com partment with three men who, when he encountered them, were busilv engaged in roasting the very bureau of which Moore was the chief. Why, that fellow Moore," said one of the strangers, "ought to be run out of the government service. He always predicts, but he's generally wrong." "He's a dub. like all the rest of those fellows," said the second, apparently indicating with a sweep of his hand the whole government service. "Look what he did last inauguration day!" chimed in the third. "Said it would be clear, and we had enough snow to tie up every railroad system in the pftnntrv Moore, who has a sense of humor,' got into the roasting bee at this moment. "Rotten!" he said, emphatically. "I'd like to meet that fellow and tell him what I reallf think of him." "But he's got the" farmers bluffed, conceded the second speaker. And so the abuse was heaped on the professor for more than- 100 miles, Moore himself helping In' the tirade. Before it was over the weather bureau and all connected with it had been put in the pan and roasted to a rich dark brown. When the party left the train Moore called a taxicab, and so did the other three. Just as the professor stepped into his vehicle and left his compan ions standing on the sidewalk he hand ed them his card, on which was en graved: '"Willis L. Moore, chief of the weather bureau, U. S. A." Popular Magazine. Becoming Latinized. No comment on race suicide as ap plied to Americans could be more striking than the figures recently pub lished by the Italian department of immigration. Colonel Roosevelt's warning to American mothers is ac centuated by the amazing revelations made by the bureau. The figures show that during the past year there were only 21 children born to every 1,000 American moth ers, 175 to every 1,000 Italian, and 123 to every thousand Spanish mothers. There were, according to the census of 1900, about three-quarters of a mil lion Italians In this country, and at the present time it is calculated there are a million more. Moreover, it is in this state that the greatest population of Italians is found. They now num ber more than 606000, an Increase of 400,000 in the past ten years. Only one conclusion can be reached from these figures. Inside of a century,- at the present ratio, the United States will be Latinized. Of all the races, the Americans come last in the number of children born. Even the French here boast 75 per 1,000, the English 92, and the Ger mans 96. The American father and mother may well consider these things. New Tork American. QUAKER MEDITATIONS. From the Philadelphia Record.

As soon as harvest is over, so Auerbach f Guettel Costs Millions to Raise Wages of mat the wheat fields need not be torn up, the work will be pushed with all Employes. speed toward the west. While Mr. Tubbs does not care to predict, he ex pects to finish the work to this point One Reason Railways Would In oy September ana hopes to help move tne Dig wheat crop now In the fields. crease Freight Rates. It looks at last as though the men wno nung on like grim death to this railroad proposition had really done a IS OYER $100,000,000. service to Kinsley. As usual, the knocker is cutting a sorry figure. mw-i ft Pi AW Ifei y yI m J. khiMll il)flJ CiJ This Amount Estimated by Com pany Officials. Other Items of General Interest in Railroad World. Aitnough the increases In freight rates promulgated by the roads in vari ous BeMoTiS of the country probably will not go into effect for several months, if at all, it is interesting to note some or the reasons advanced by the roads as to whv an increase was necessary. The main reason advanced was the advance in wages which the different roads have been compelled to make their employes during the past two or three months. These advances have t-een estimated by W. C. Brown, presi dent of the New York Central, and ether railroad executives as being close to $100,000,000 per annum. These in creases in wages will bring the total paid for the year to approximately $1, 227.233,000. The iatter figure is reached -by Mr. Brown by taking statistics of the in terstate commerce commission as a basis and estimating the operating ex panses of the year from the monthly reports now available. Appflving the percentage of labor cost to the total operating expenses and adding the in creased wages gives this enormous to tal. The advance in wages paid rail road employes during the last three years is shown by the fact that dur ing 1907 the railroads paid a total of $1,072,386,000 for labor, which was an in crease of 10 per cent over 1906. Wages were not reduced in 1907 when business fell off, so that this year's advances will be on top of those made in 1906. which added fully $100,000,000 to the la bor bill of the railroads. The tariffs which' were filed with the interstate commerce commission called for an average increase in freight rates of 18 per cent. This would increase the ft tight revenues of the railroads ap proximately $100,000,000, which virtual ly wouid just about make up for the in creases in wages of employes. OPKN ROAI WITH BARBECUE. Kiowa, Hardtner Pacific Treats Its Patrons. Hardtner, Kan., June 10. The opening of the Kiowa, Hardtner Pacific railway will be celebrated to day with a barbecue.

Word comes from St. Louis to the effect that it will be Impossible to build the Frisco road into town. It seems prob able that this company, while getting a good deal of the freight business here, fails to appreciate this fact. It Is known that a good many of the shippers believe that no freight should go to this road unless it should think enough of Hutchinson to come this way with its line. There is considerable talk that a company should be formed here and a road -built to Burrton. to connect with the Frisco line and by that means get the connection made, but the club did not take kindly to the matter last night.

Swayze Is Going After the Votes .Vi (4)i I V, Vn i i v 4 i 4 V DIAZ IS DENOUNCED Sensational Charges Made Against Mexican President Before Boles Committee of the Honse of Representatives. POLITICAL REFUGEE On the theory that God helps those who help themselves, Oscar K. Swayze, candidate for county clerk on the Re publican ticket, is making a clean, earnest campaign for the nomination, and asking the voters to lend their support, not because he has an idea that it is due him, or that he has a mortgage on the Job, but because he has had experience and can, if elect ed, do the work. He has it learned. Those who know of Swayze's work at the court house do not pretend to question his competency, but he is asking those who do not konw to ask and post themselves. He has been an ardent supporter of the party ticket in Shawnee county for twenty-nine years, having served as a member and secre tary of the Republican Flambeau club for nineteen years, and an active booster for the party.; He is not a perennial candidate, has not asked for much at the hands of the people, and believes that until civil service rules ara applied any honorable effort to aspire to a political office is legitimate. Swayze is not waiting for votes to come to him. He is going after them, as earnestly as he knows how. COOLEY GETS A FIELDER Cocash, Formerly With Kansas City, Joins Team.

The Prix La Mor- inere of $1,000, distance 11 furlongs, run at Maissons Laffitte today was won by W. K. Vanderbilt'a San Pietro. Marriage License. Robert S. Pond, aged 34, Topeka, and Ethel McMichael, aged 22, TO' peka. Washington, June 10. A tale of en forced flight from, Mexico and of al leged prosecution by American and Mexican officers In this country was related to the rules committee of the house today by L. De Lara, a political refugee. After recounting his experiences in Los Angeles, Cal., where he said he was arrested five times on "trumped up" charges at the instance of the Mexican government and served more than 100 days in jail, De Lara ex claimed: "I have been in jail five times since I came to the United States 'and have been subjected to 'third degree' at the hands of the officers; I have been thrown into a dungeon and kept for days with nothing to eat but a rotten potato and neither my attorneys nor friends allowed to see me. I am liable to be arrested again at any time and unless you gentlemen help me, they may get me and hang me." The committee was considering a resolution offered by Representative Wilson, Dem., Pennsylvania, who asks congress to name an investigating com mittee to inquire into the treatment of Mexican political refugees and of the alleged acceptance of money from the Diaz government by American cus toms and peace officers along the bor der to act as secret service agents for Mexico. Calls Him a Despot. De Lara denounced President Diaz as "a dirty despot" who had destroy ed free speech, free press and the right of the ballot in that country. "More than 40,000 people have met violent deaths for political reasons since Diaz took the reins of govern ment In Mexico," said DeLara. "He never was elected president. He never was chosen president by votes of the people, but has maintained himself by force. The Mexican government has caused thousands of persons to be killed because they resisted the ex isting order of things in that country and sought to restore to the poor people the rights that were taken from them by force." DeLara was accompanied to the cap ltol by his wife, an American woman, and two or three Mexican. DeLara related incidents tending to support the charge that the govern ment of Mexico was using a system of espionage in the United States over political refugees. Delara told how he himself, in order to learn what his government was doing in that di rection, had accepted employment as a "sdv" in Los Angeles tc. trace the movements of otfler refugees. He said he resigned after four days. Wras Paid $3 a Day. "How much pay did you receive for your work as a spy?" asked Repre sentative Fassett of New York. 'I was paid $3 a day and gave the money to poor Mexican women of Los Angeles the day I received It," answer ed the witness. "How did you earn this money?" in quired Mr. Fassett. 'I did nothing but stay in the office and think of my degradation In being insr the employ of a dirty despot.," De Lara replied. 'I earned a million dol lars as far as conscience was concerned." De Lara said there were orders in Mexico to shoot him because of his political -activities. He said he had been thrown into jail in Mexico, but had been released as a result of a mis understanding. He said he had escaped to this country through the assistance of friends. In Los Angeles he had been charged with robbery three times. the warrant for which was made out in blank as to date, time, place and amount of the alleged robbery. Once the charge was for stealing wood in Cananea, Mexico, seven years previous ly, he said. The last time he was arrested was while speaking on the street in Los Angeles to a number of his country men, he asserted. He declared that h'.s attorneys secured his release on a writ of habeas corpus and that the charges against him were dismissed on orders of the secretary of commerce and labor. RECOUNT IS HELD UP.

Cus ter Unveileu ouue 4 at Monroe, MicfjL, in Presence of President Taft. JOHNSOMJS WILD. Young Forger Is Closely Guard ed in Cell at Jail. Attempts Escape by Climbing Airshaft to Roof. ABUSED BY PKISONEKS In Delirinm Talks of Whipping by Kangaroo Court. Authorities Want Him Sent to Missouri Asylum. Having completely lost his mind as a result of worry over how to plan and execute his escape from the coun ty jail, and his abuse by his fellow prisoners, Everett Johnson, the young forger, now talks about nothing else. He nearly lost his life Thursday before he could be extricated from the air shaft, into which he had wedged him self In trying to climb to the top of the Jail and leap to freedom. Today Johnson is stark naked in his cell and two prisoners watch him con stantly, being relieved when they grow tired by other prisoners. Thus Is a constant guard kept upon him. John son tore his clothing into shreds and from his body. He cries and whim pers, moving constantly about in his cell talking all the time of escape. The severe disciplining of the pris oners in the second etory cell house has had its effect on Johnson. He is now in the lower cell house and the prisoners are good to htm. But he remembers, even In his insanity, his experience in the upper cell house when he was given 350 lashes at the order of the kangaroo court, and obeys like a child. The action was an outrage and should never have been tolerated in the county jail. Mind Is Failing. Johnson has been growing worse, mentally, since his first attempts to escape from the county Jail failed. Thursday he was missed by the pris oners. A search was made for him and after an hour he was found In the airshaft, wedged In so tightly that he could not move either forward or backward, but wedging himself stil! more solidly by trying to climb furth er up the shaft. Two men worked an hour to get him out. Johnson tells great stories of his at tempts to escape and shows plainly that he fear3 ho would be shot If he did try to leave the jail. The airshaft i large at the place where it opened into the cells but no larger than an ordinary stove pipe on the top of the Jail. John son tells of having climbed to the top of the 'ail through the shaft and sev eral times, he claims to have been ready to make his escape when men appeared in the street and shot ait him, forcing him to descend Into the ceil again. This morning he claims there was a man on the roof of the jail who shot ait him. Probably with the delusion he must Implicate the other prisoners to protect fcimself, Johnson always promises that as quickly as toe is safely on the roof he will lower a rope to the other pris oners and thus assist them all in, mak ing their escape. Would Send Htm to Asylum. A letter has been written to John son's Drother Who resides in Omaha, urging him to come and get his broth er and have him placed in the Mis souri asylum. Johnson's home is in Missouri and he would not be accept ed by the Kansas board of control for a local asylum. Johnson's brother de clared the young forger insane when he visited the jail a few weeks ago end suggested a lunacy commission at that time. Now there is little doubt that lunacy will be the only charge against Johnson. He will likely never come to trial on the charge of forgery upon which he has been held. It is useless to furnish Johnson with clothing and it will not be given him until time for his trial. Then he will be equipped with a suit of overall stuff I'm an effort will be made to keep him from destroying it. SUIT OVER FEE. St. Joseph Lawyers Seek $1,000 In District Court. A sharp legal battle between attorneys for fees is being waged in the district court this afternoon in the case of Brown Dolman, lawyers of St. Joseph, Mo., against Mary K. Qulnton, administrator of the estate of her father, L. B. Ken dall. A fee of J1.000 is under controversy. When the affairs of the estate involving a mortgage on the Topeka Grand opera house, once owned by C. F. Kendall, brother of L. B. Kendall, came up in a suit before the federal court at St. Joseph, Qulnton Qulnton, lawyers for Mrs. Quinton. engaged the services of the plaintiffs in this suit to aslsst them, it is claimed. The case was then settled by E. S. Quinton, husband of the defend antN for 260 which satisfied the St. Joseph attorneys who now ask $1,000 as their fee. The question of whether Mrs. Quinton employed the Missouri lawyers forms the contention of E. S. Quinton and Z T. Hasen against J. B. Troutman and Ed McKeever for Brown Dolman. LET'STT GO AT THAT.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL- FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 10, 1910. HAIL T0SH AVERS Barbers Will Be Mobbitts Guests at Picnic Maybe. Man Said to Be Crazy About Entertaining Them. TO SHOOT SOME FISII. Wandered Along Creek Armed With a Rifle. Threatened the Officers But Hurt No One. All the barbers of Topeka were com ing out to his big barbers' picnic. They were all coming in automobiles with plenty of style. And they were going to have the time of their lives and he showed a stack of 24 Ashing poles they were to use In the little creek. But the neighbors and family said he was crazy so Samuel Lafayette Mobbltt, of Waka rusa, is being tried for his sanity today end the barbers will get no picnic. "Lafe," as the barbers' friend is known to his many acquaintances around Wakarusa, sat beside his at torney today in the probate court clean shaven and shampooed. He has had two terms in asylums before, one at Topeka and one at St. Joseph, Mo. He is nDuui .so years oia. ns been married or.d divorced and has three daughters, the second of whom, Nettie Myvana, was married Thursday evening to W. K. Parker. He was sane enough to demand a Jury trial rather than trial by a commission of physicians and Dr. O. P. Davis. H. S. Alien, J. M. Evans and J. D. McMichael compose that body. Big Crowd Present. The court room was crowded with residents of tho Wakarusa neighbor hood who have known Lafe and his father and their families for many years. Most of them were witnesses. The testimony they bear to ehow the insanity of Lafe Mabbitt is, beside the barbers' picnic fantasy, his idea that his father Is insane and his threat to kill several people of the community. "To Shoot Fish." Formerly, witnesses said, he had helped his father in a general store, but later has worked on the farm. They say. however, that his work is "scattered and erratic" and that he spends his hours wandering leisurely through the woods along the creek with a little .22 caliber rifle in his arms. Sometimes he runs, sometimes he stops to listen, but usually he is walking slowly, carefully, through the trees. When asked where he is going, his answer is said to be "to shoot fish." The incident directly responsible for his arrest happened Sunday morning, May 29, when Lafe telephoned wildly for a doctor to see his father who was ill. He became so excited the people thought he had gone crazy again and Sheriff Norton at Topeka was notified. Somehow Mobbitt seemed to learn what waa in the air and, remarking that the sheriff in stead of the doctor was coming, start ed up a road near the town, saying he would kill the first one who tried to take, him. Ah! Judkins Was There. Under Sheriff Bayliss and Deputy Judkins made the trip from Topeka and when they approached Lafe he was armed with a brick in one hand and a buggy whip in the other, daring them to come closer. He has been kept in the county jail ever since. The principal reason his family and his brother, who signed the complaint, have for wanting him confined is that they are afraid of him. Another wit ness. J. N. Robinson, said he, too, was in deadly fear of the man with the rifle. Some of the items gleaned from the witnesses Include Mobbitt's claim that he has five trades; that he boasts how he "cleaned up" with the people over at St. Joe when he was taken to the hospital; that he harasses another man's wife, and that he threatened to kill anyone who chose to come over his fence. But the great ground for the dis play of his lunacy is considered to be in connection with his barbers' picnic.

David Leahy, secretary to the gov ernor, is a happy man this day. He has turned the Joke on the other fel low, and that Is better than meat and drink to an Irishman. It came about through this letter writing contest which is now at its height in Kansas, and Joe Kramer, secretary of the Wagstaff committee, is the victim. When the State Journal man en tered the governor's office last even ing Leahy was reading for the third time the Kramer letter published that evening, in which the Wagstaff secre tary Jumped on the Stubbs secretary with both feet for the reason that Leahy had proclaimed Dumont Smith as the author of the. Wagstaff letters. Leahy read the Kramer article with serious brow, and then finally he smiled. "This is the best yet," said Dave. "Wait a moment while I talk over the 'phone and you will hear something interesting," and he picked up the phone and called for the Wag staff headquarters. "I will convict Kramer this time out of his own mouth. That word 'veri similitude' used here in this article of Kramer's is one of Dumont Smith's favorite words. Now wouldn't it be fun if I could prove that Dumont wrote this Kramer letter also?" Leahy is a stranger to Kramer, so when he got the Wagstaff headquar ters on the phone he asked without hesitation, "Is that you, Joe?" "Sure," came the answer over the wire. "How are you?" "Just been reading that fine roast on Leahy in the State Journal, but I don't Just catch what that word veri similitude,' means what is it?" "I don't know," said the honest, in nocent, childlike Joseph, falling into the Leahy trap kerplunk. "In what sense is it used?" "That's exactly what I want to find out," said Leahy in his own full and natural voice. "I'll inquire about it and let you know," said Kramer, falling deeper into the pit. "By the way, who is this?" "This is Leahy himself said the son of the Emerald isle with a hearty laugh. At the bther end of the line there was heard only hard breathing In response to the laughter. "I told you," said the secretary to the newspaper man, who had sat by and enjoyed the conversation. "I told you," repeated Dave, "that Dumont wrote that Kramer piece, too." Richard J. Hopkins, who is cam paigning with the governor in the First district, in referring to the control of public utilities in a -eech at Troy Wednesday night, said, among other things: "The great problem for solu tion that today confronts the American people is the regulation and control of public utilities.

DUMBFOUNDED AT POSLAM'S RESULTS Effectiveness of a New llealinsr Agent occasions ueneral surprise. "I was perfectly dumfounded at its results," says Mr. C. E. Thornton Philadelphia, Pa., who had suffered for ten years from eczema, tried all kinds of remedies and waj cured in one month after a few applications of poslam, the new skin remedy. The rapidity and effectiveness with which poslam works is a source of surprise and gratification to sufferers from every surface skin disease; ec zema, acne, tetter, scabies, rash. etc. This wonderful healing asreni is active from the first application, when all ltcntng is stopped, until a complete cure is effected. And Its ranee or use fulness includes every variety of skin affection, from pimples, rash, red noses, inflamed complexion, etc., to those virulent and chronic troubles which cause such great distress. To -fully appreciate what poslam will do, obtain one of the free samples by writing to the Emergency Labora tories, 32 West Twenty-fifth street. New Tork City. This alone is suffi cient to cure a small eczema surface, clear the complexion and remove pim pies. The Rosser Drug Co. and Fred A. hnow s, as well as all good drug gists everywhere, always carry poslam in two sizes, at 60 cents and f 2. NEW FEATURE AT CLUB. Pool and Billiard Room to Open at commercial Quarters. Formal opening of the new pool and billiard room at the Commercial club Willi be held Saturday noon, all mem bers of the organization having been notified to this effect. However, there will be no particular ceremony. "Not even an invocation," said one of the of ficials of the club this afternoon.

A raised platform has been built around the room where chairs have been placed for the convenience of the onlookers. Ten cents for each bil liard game played is asked for the use of the table, and 5 cents for each game of pool. These are not the prices for each individual who participates in a game, but the fees for the use of the tables during the playing of a match. Members will be placed on their honor and will be asked to drop the coin in a box. This noon the new amusement room proved most popular, and it is expected that a number of business men can be induced to join the commercial organ ization on account of the new feature who have not previously been members. A sketch of an exceedingly smart little blouse of white voile, lined with black is given here. The simple fulled blouse shows two inch-wide pleats on the shoulders and a center panel of pin tucks.

By the over whelming: majority of 195 to 101. the house passed the postal savings bank bill as recently agreed upon by the Re publican caucus of the house, not a ngle Republican voted against the measure on the final roll call. Prior to this action, the house by 13 to 196 rejected the Democratic substitute for the bill proposed by the majority. rue voting on the several motions involved In the disposition of the measure followed six hours of debate, which many Republicans and Democrats recorded their views upon the bill of the majority and the substi tute supported by a large portion of the minority. The large deflection among the Democrats was shown when the Demo cratic substitute was voted upon, 21 of them Joining the Republicans In voting gainst the measure, most of whom were opposed to a postal saving sys tem of any kind. On the Republican side Norris of Nebraska, "insurgent," wa,. the only member who voted with Democrats for their substitute. On agreeing to the bill as proposed by the majority of the house as a sub stitute for the senate measure the vote was 175 to 105. On this vote 26 Democrats Joined the Republicans. six Republicans joined the Demo crats in voting against the proposed bill of the majority, as follows: Gronna of North Dakota, Hubbard of Iowa, Lenroot of Wisconsin, Nelson of Wis consin, Norris of Nebraska and Wood of Iowa. After a motion of Mr. Wood of Tennessee to recommit the bill to the committee which reported It had been defeated, the house voted on the final passage, the vote being 195 to 101, 24 Democrats voting with the Republicans. Provisions of the Bill. Under the terms of the bill a board of trustees is created, consisting of the postmaster general, the secretary of the treasury and the attorney general, who shall declare what postofnces shall become postal savings banks. De posits In these banks made by any one person shall not be more than $100 a month or exceeding a total of $500. The account may be opened with $1, but stamps of ten cents each will be issued for those desiring to accumu late money to be deposited. On de posits 2 per cent interest per annum is to be paid. Any depositor so de- lring can exchange his deposits for government bonds to be issued In de nominations of $20, $40, $60," $80. $100 or $500, to bear interest at 2 per cent annum.

The Paper Supply Is Resting Narrow Margin. Washington, June 10. That the supply of news print paper in the American mills has still further de pleted since March 30, that on April 30 there was less than five days' sup ply on hand, is the purport of a state ment made public by Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations. The last statement, as of April 1, showed but 19,907 tons on hand- since then there has been a decrease of 1,847 tons. The decrease since April 30, 1909. has been more than 18,000 tons. The normal consumption per day is said to be about 4.000 tons: .the pro duction capacity about 4.125. Following is the commissioner's statement: "Statistics of news print paper for April, 1910, as compiled by the Ameri can Paper and Pulp association and filed with the commissioner of corpor ations, show a sharp decline In produc tion and a further drain upon stocks. The total supply on hand on April 30, 1910, was only 18.060 tons, a reduc tion of 1.847 tons since April 1. On April 30, 1909, the stocks were 36,183 tons. Stocks have been steadily de creasing ever since the end of last August, when they exceeded 53,000 tons. "As late as Jan. 1, 1910, there were In excess of 26.600 tons. This contin ued decrease has. as is well known. been accompanied by a considerable Increase in prices. "This reduction in stocks is chiefly due to the reduction of the output, which fell from S4.219 tons in March 1910, to 80,489 tons in April, a net de cline of 3,730 tons. In April. 1909, the production was 89,4 78 tons. The statis tics for 1910 show a decrease in pro duction in April as compared with January of 4.058 tons, whereas the same comparison in 1909 shows an in crease of over 7.700 tons. The nor mal output for the month of April, 1910, as computed by the association. it may be noted, is 96,538 tons; the actual output, therefore, was only 83 per cent of this normal. The decrease is chiefly attributed to a strike in some of the large mills. The production at the end of May is said to be close to normal. "In this general connection it is real ly remakable to note upon how nar row a margin of supply this industry The money accumulated in the pos-1 manufacturers in the nast vear and a half would not exceed at best tnree weeks' consumption, while the manu facturers' stock on April 30, 1910, would not give more than a week's tal savings banks bank is to be depos ited in both national and state banks' in the vicinity of the postofnces in which the money is deposited by the people, such banks to pay 24 per cent interest. Five per cent of the total deposits is to be retained by the secretary of the treasury as a cash reserve. Not more than 30 per cent of these deposts may be withdrawn by the government at any one time for investment in bonds of the United States, the '-emaining 65 per cent to remain on deposits in the banks. The banks are required to give as se curity for the deposits they receive Public bonds or other security sup ported by the taxing power," which re stricts such securities to some form of national, state, money or other such bonds approved by the board of trus tees In charge of the postal savings banks. The bill passed by the house as a substitute for the senate bill dif fers from the senate measure in many particulars, chiefly in respect to the nature of securities that may be given by banks for the deposits of postal savings funds received by them. In addition to government, state and money bonds, various other classes of securities, such as mortgages, etc., may be received. supply. This situation necessarily tends toward excessive nuctuations in prices." ALASAKA LABOR PROBLEM. Workers From Southern Kurope Can't Stand the Climate. GOOD FRUIT PROSPECTS. For Once It Seems the Peaches Have Not 'Been Killed. Washington, June 10. Splendid pros pects for fruit in New England and th-2 Pacific coast states almost counter balance the poor showing of the central states, where- early frost got in telling work, according to a report made pub lic by the department of agriculture on general crop growth. The condition oi me appie crop is reported to be more man s points below last year or 53.0 as compared with a normal condition. The ten year average for apples Is 69.8. In New Kngland and on the Pacific coa.st the crop promises to be immense but in such big apple states as Ohio and Mississippi there will be only about one-third of a crop. On the other hand,- the peach crop. due to the excellent prospects in such states as Georgia and Delaware, prom ises to be larger than last year, the condition on June 1 being 62.0 as com pared with 54.1 last year and a ten year average of 65.0. The central states will produce a poor crop, it appears now. Frost evidently nipped the brier blos soms, for the condition of blackberries was estimated at 80.0 as compared with 90.0 last year and for the last four years. Raspberries were estimated at 79.2 as compared with 88.4 last year and 82.1, the four years average. The watermelon and the canteloupe crops will be slightly off, it appears, as the former was estimated at 70.4 as compared with 81.5 a year ago and the latter 77.8 as compared with 81.8 a year ago. Sugar cane was reported at 84.7 compared with 90.6 and sugar beets at 90.5 as compared with 89.0. souri field were said to be practically failures.

Charges Ex-PoIIoeman With Securing Her Property hy BYand. Walter B. Bryant, a negro ex-policeman, is made defendant in a suit filed in the district court by Jane Davis, a colored woman 82 years old, to cancel a deed to four and a half lots at the cor ner of Crane and Madison streets which she alleges he procured from her by fraud. Placing before her a paper which he represented to be a will, she alleges she was fraudulently induced to sign a warranty deed to her property in his favor. The signature was merely a mark, for the old woman can neither read nor write. That she was Induced to sign anything, she lays to the fact that Bryant was constantly kind and considerate of her when she was ill and feeble. She alleges she thought she was making him a will in return for his promise to pay all her expenses until her death and then to pay her funeral expenses. Now she seeks to re cover her property but states she is willing to pay the ex-noliceman for whatever improvements or expenditures he has made. Sept. Dec. CO H NT July Sept. Dec. OATS July Sept,.

It Is Rapidly Returning to Figures of Most Prosperous Period. Washington, June 10. Internation al commerce according to statistics procured by the department of com merce and labor, showed a marked improvement in all the principal coun tries of the world for the year ending in April, 1910. A report of the bureau Just issued stated: "International trade as is well known, fell off in the period following the financial depression of 1907-8 and as a consequence, the import and ex port figures of nearly all countries were smaller in 1908, than In the Im mediately preceding year. The in crease shown by the figures of the current year is therefore in most cases more distinctly a return to nor mal conditions than an actual advance over those which existed prior to the financial depression of 1907-08. In many cases, however, the fig ures of the current year are material ly larger than ever before and It is probable that the total of internation al trade in the calendar year. 1910, will surpass that of any former year." In the United States exports during the ten months of the current fiscal year averaged 145.8 million dollars per month against 140.3 millions per month last year and 161 millions per month two years ago. Imports for the same period averaged 131.8 millions per month as against 107.1 last year 101.8 two years ago and 119.5 three years ago. COURT HOUSE ALONE IS LEFT. Seattle. June 10. The distress son: the laborers from Montenegro stranded in Cordove, Alaska, is due to the ina bility of men from southern Europe to compete with the hardier northern la borers in the climate or Alaska. Last year a large number of southern European laborers were used on the Copper Northwestern railroad but their wrk was found to be so unsat isfactory that instructions were issued this spring to discontinue their employ ment. The men were not only unsulted to the climate, but afraid of it. This af fected their working ability. One man from the northern countries was lounu able to do more work than two from Eouhern Europe. Accordingly this year the wage rate was raised to Jo cents an hour to attract good men, and the fact that only men suited to conditions would be accepted was made Known. In spite of this, the high wages at tracted many Italians and Montene grins.

STOCKS The opening movement of prices of stocks today was very listless. There were more issue quoted unchanged from last night than those showing either gains or losses. Such changes as there were very narrow and mixed. The most active speculative issues showed small fractional gains. Weakness in the metal groups and liqui dation in some of the Hawley stocks had a depressing effect on the market and prices declined sharply on small offerings. Chicago and Alton lost 6, Amalgamated Copper 2, Toledo, St. Louis and Western 1, American Locomotive 1, Anaconda lat and St. Paul. American Smeltine and Sloss Sheffield Steel 1. The low prices attracted some purchasers and the market rallied but the recovery was not main tained, prices falling back again to the lowest.

VISITORS NOTICE. jf' Remark About Blockades and Congested Traffic Conditions. Other Items of Interest in First Ward. A great many visitors here for the aviation meet have remarked about the need for better crossing facilities at the Kansas avenue and the Union Pa cific tracks. These statements were made when the street cars carrying out of town people would be held up by the passing of trains at the cross ing. Sometimes it happened that a car load of people on their way from Gar field park would be stopped several minutes, not to say more than ths time limit of five minutes, on the north side of the tracks while a train stood on the crossing, blockading traffic. Very often among the passengers on the street car would be some who were in a hurry to catch a train at the Rock' Island arid Santa Fe depots, and had not allowed for this kind of a delay. These circumstances would call at tention to the fact that traffic is block ed and that occasionally the Are de partment from station No. 1 is held up by trains standing on the crossinsj. Under the existing conditions the blame is not attached to the trainmen. How ever, as the passenger and freight busi ness increases the congestion will likely become worse, unless something is done to relieve the situation. This congestion and blockading will likely become especially noticeable when the Onaga cutoff which in to con nect Kansas City with the coast via Cheyenne has been completed, as it in that much more freight and passenger business will pass through, the North s' le. Just what can be done to. better af fairs has not been worked out, and a street car tunnel or viaduct at this point may not be practicable, but it 13 hoped that some steps may be taken In the future to improve the. situation. The Intermediate society of the B. Y. P. U. of the North Side Baptist church gave a farewell party for Mr. Elwtn Peterson who will leave this evening for his new home in Stockton. The af fair was held at the home of Miss Pearl Head of US West Curtis street. Those present were: Miss Ruth McKinley, Miss Elsie Luke, Miss Tressa Luke, Miss Margaret Sturgls, Miss Laura Sturgis, Miss Hazel Boast, Miss Mollie Sipes, Miss Lois Segar, Miss Helen Stevic, Miss Margery Cole, Mr. Duane Elmore, Mr. Merle Segar, Mr. Chester Thomas, Mr. Elwin Peterson, Mr. Paul Van Ness, Mr. John Williams.

His career is unique. He was born in Norway and spent the early years of his life as a sailor, visit ing nearly every important foreign port in the world. Then he studied for the ministry. His sermons are wonder fully interesting and very practical. It is rumored that a theatrical syn dicate has been contemplating the erec. tion of a summer theater .on the .Taylor tract north of Garfield park, so as to be outside of the city limits and thus run Sunday shows without violating the ordinances. However, the Craw fords deny they are concerned in the suspected deal. The members of the stock company controlling -the ground say that they have heard or no sucn intentions mentioned. Miss May McAdams of Severy, who has been visiting at the home of her cousin, Mrs. Wm. Boast, of 909 Jackson street, left today for a short visit in Kansas City. She had been here to at tend the graduating exercises of Wash burn college.

Timely Quotations. "What is so rare as a day in June?" Besides flyers in wheat there has been a flyer in alfalfa. Not being a member of the congre gation.

"I must confess," said John Jones today, "that my idea of a tiresome Job would be to attend a meeting of the Merry Matrons' club. What has become of the old fash ioned "soft June air?" In after years some children will be saying: "My papa was a soldier at the first airship meet held in Kansas." W. U. IS INDICTED. Telecranh Company Charged With Violating Bucket Shop Law.

An additional indictment charging the conduct of a bucket shop m the district was filed today against Will iam B. Price, Virgil P. Randolph, Henry M. Randolph. Charles T. Moore- head, Edward Weldon, James A. An derson, all of Baltimore: Thomas H Campbell of Philadelphia; Joseph F. Gatins of New York; Edward Everett Taylor. and John P. Altberger of Philadelphia. THE BIGGESTTVER. G. W. Watson Reports Great Wheat Crop in Edwards. George W. Watson of Kinsley, for merly of Topeka. came here to see the flying machine. He said: "Our community is prosperous. Automo biles are common. We are looking into these flying machines now. Edwards county wheat is fine. We will harvest the biggest wheat crop in our history." If the present plans of the city com missioners are carried out. the original fccheme of giving every section of To peka free open air band concerts this summer, will be revived and the entire concert schedule fought over and dis cussed for the past few weeks will be ironed out and presented to the peo ple for their approval. The recent trouble at Central park has aroused considerable indignation among the people in the city (not that they thought the people living in the Central park district were wrong in protesting against the erection of a bandstand on the island in the south lake, but that the petition against the bandstand being erected in any part of the park was granted.; A reactionary petition has been cir culated among the people in the south western district of the city the past few days as mentioned in the State Journal last evening and this petition has been presented to the city officials. I; contains 305 names. The petition asks that a bandstand be erected in Chesney park just two blocks south of Central park. The sentiment of the people in this part of the city has aroused the com missioners to action and they will pre pare a complete city band concert schedule which will give to almost ev ery section at least one free open air concert this year. The City park, Garfield park. Chesney park, and the state house grounds have been mentioned and will undoubtedly toe included in the schedule. The way the concert question stands now the City park and Garfield park have all of the concerts for the summer. Garfield park is in North Topeka and the City park is just this side of the Kansas river. This gives to the people living north of First street all of the band concerts of the summer. To be to partial as to give to -this one section ell of the summer's entertainment has caused no little adverse criticism all over the city and it is planned to pre vail upon the city commissioners es pecially M. C. Holman to distribute he schedule in a better manner. Commissioner Bone is in favor of making the state house grounds the leading center for -these concerts. "There is ample room for carriages, for people to be seated and for the good effects of the music," said Mr. Bone. "I believe that this should be ii;ade the main concert .site this Sum mer." Commissioner Tatidy Is- in favor of the state house grounds as a concert piace but believes that aH of the con certs should be equally divided. Com ariissioners Holman and Miller believe ihat the entire city should be treated fiUrly although Mr. Holman favors Garfield park as a permanent center. In behalf of the erection of a band stand In Chesney park, Cyrus Corning, an old time political leader and a resi dent of the southwest city district said tcd-ay: "We people in the southern pant of the city love music just as much as the people of the North side do. Music has the same charms for us as it dfces for them. The people of North To-I-eka can come over to the South side lust as easily as the South side people are able to come over -the river, we pay our taxes as they do and we pay cur share of the park fund. We should have some of the music every bit of It at this time is given to North Topeka. "There has been nothing done at Chesney rark it-he city pays little at tention to. it.

EVENING CHAT BY RUTH CAMERON. There is one weakness that it seems to me if I were' training a child, I should try to help him to grow up without and that is the weakness of Inaccurate statement. The famous Dr. Johnson is reported to have said: "If the child says he looked out of this window when he looked out of that whip him." I certainly should not advise any such strenuous measures as that, but I do think it is a good thing to make a decided effort to teach a child the habit of accurate and exact statement. Teach him not to be specific unless he can be accurate; not to say, "I walked four miles," or "I came homo at 5 o'clock," unless it was exactly four miles or 5 o'clock. Teach him if he is only speaking broadly to say "about," or "somewhere near," or any word or expression that denotes apprbximately. And, above all things, try to keep him from acquiring that painfully pre-, valent, slipshod habit of exaggeration. The famous boy who told his father he had seen "about "a hundred cats scrapping down in our cellar," and then admitted, after a few searching ques tions, that after all, he was only sure of "our cat and another one," has al together too many prototypes not only in boy life, but also among grown-ups. How many people's statements you take with a grain of salt! "She told me she cleaned every closet and every drawer and cupboard in the house, and changed the paper on all the shelves, and washed all the china yesterday, but I don't believe her." "He says he Is getting Just twice aa much money as he was last year at this time, but I guess if you take ten dollars off of that you will get nearer to the truth." I hate exaggeration. It is so bootless. If you have the habit of exaggeration people will soon find you out, and then in self-defense will acquire a compensatory habit of deducting from your statements. Often they will deduct more than they ought. So everyone loses. "It is vinegar to the eyes," says Em erson, "to deal with men of loose and imperfect perceptions.". That means exaggeration and inac curacy, among other things. Train your children to accuracy of thought and observation and statement, and you will have given them an equip ment that will prove most valuable in all the relations of Iife womMIn'thTracl Alice Potter Would make New Tork to Chicago Flight.

For the past week society has con centrated its attention, for the most part, on the affairs of the closing days of the school year. Commencement ex ercises, receptions, and picnics, the purchase of gifts for graduates, the en tertainment of commencement visitors, and then the exodus of teachers and students, have made It a busy week. A slight hiatus in the social gaiety while the people rest, is the natural result. .While the closing of the schools means the loss of a good many socially prominent people among the younger set, this is made up to us In the return of a good many of our own young peo ple who are away to school and are now returning to spend the summer at home. Then later will come the sea son of picnics, camping parties, and lawn fetes to preserve the public from the distress of ennui and idleness. Mrs. S. A.

Editor Theodore Roosevelt and Editor William Jen nings Bryan were criticised in a speech by former Congressman James Hamil ton Lewis before the Illinois Press association today, both being described as the causes of a movement which he said will lead to a disruption of par ties Into bands flying the flag of their own special privileges. He called upon the country editors to bring about co hesion and thus counteract the Influ ence of the movement he described. "Bv legislation we are being con verted into a nation of legalized brigands against legalized bandits. The policy now is to destroy any opponent by the sword of some privately di rected act of the legislature or con gress. "Unless this frenzied mania for leg islation which forces Under penalty obedience to that which Justice and conscience are against- shall -subside Into a citizenship regulated by the measure of individual welfare, the United States of America will' break up into bands and parties under the flag of their own special legislative privilege will pit themselves against the others as were the houses of Ital ian nobles, English lords and German barons, .which destroyed all democracy of human nature in that day. '.'If I am correct In my fear of the surrounding danger, I must charge much of its existence to Editor Bryan and Editor Roosevelt.- each of whom la his sincere desire to promote a re form, in the injustice of local institu tions has inaugurated In his political following a greater danger in the spirit of legislation! against a neighbor or opponent for retaliation or venge ance."

Thus the skin is kept healthy. and free from all eruption or disease, by pure blood. But when impurities and xiumors miect tne circulation us nourishing properties are diminished and in- stead of supplying the skin with healthful properties it constantly Irritates and diseases the delicate fibres, pores and glands with sharp nratic matter. Then the skin tissues inflame, swell and ulcerate and some form of skin disease appears on the surface. Applying soothing lotions, salves, etc, to the outer eruptions does not purify the blood and therefore the skin trouble can not be cured in this manner. S. S.
