Changed His Location.

It is not safe to help baby in distress
if the baby happens to be a Spanish king.
A short time ago King Alfonso XIII re-
ceived present of a new swinging era
die, and was put into it. He didn't
like it and cried. Only the nurse and Il
few special attendants are permitted by
law TO touch his majesty, but man
servant, who was near at the time, see
ing that his king was trying to roll out
of the cradle and threatened to hurt him
self by screaming, lifted him out. For
zeal and kind -heartedness he was imme-
diately dismissed by the court marshal.
Luckily the queen regent was willing, in
view of the extenuating circumstances,
to mitigate the mans punishment, and
gave him something else to do in one Of
the royal castles, where he could not
have any possible opportunity of lifting
the king and breaking the law.

HORSE THIEVES DONE For.
Kansas Farmers Dispose OF Seven
Desperate Characters.

Ever since last fall farmers in the
counties of Texas and Kansas, adjoining
tho Indian Territory, had been sorely
annoyed by horse thieves who had been
unusually bold in their periodical raids.
Visits from the marauders at last became
so frequent chat the farmers formed a
vigilance committee for the purpose Of
DISCRIMINATING the thieves. Some time
ago the vigilantes, armed with Winchcs-
tiers. six-shooters, and lariats, started on
the trail of the marauders, but not until
they had been two weeks In the saddle
did they find any tangible trace Of the
robbers camp. While they were travel
ing through the western part OF the
Territory ten days ago they suddenly
ran across the thieves in deep ravine.
The outlaws were in their blankets,
but not asleep, and when the vigilantes
rode up to the mouth of the ravIne, the
thieves, who were in the command of
Bill Higgins, alias Oscar Face" sprang
to their horses, but in mounting one of
their number was shot dead. The
others put spurs to their animals, and
were soon throwing dust and bullets into
the eyes of their pursuers. The horses
ridden by the vigilantes were fatigued,
and were in no condition to give the
outlaws horses any kind of race, but
the chase WAS begun and the trial of the
thieves followed. After q furious ride,
lasting all day, the vigilantes succeeded
i'll driving the gang upon buttee near
small creek, where preparations were
made for desperate resistance.
AS the vigilantes approached they
We're met by volley which brought
down one of their number-Peter Acker-
man of Medicine Lodge, Kan. The
thieves were surrounded as well as pos
sible and the fight continued. One by
one the rifles of the outlaws were silenced
until but few flashes answered the vigil
lantes' rifles. About dusk white rag
was hoisted on the summit of the butte.
The vigilantes greeted it with another
volley and charged up the hill. Three
of the outlaws escaped, but "Scar- Face, -
Hank Window and "Curly Bill'' were
captured. "Curly Bill and Window
were riddled with bullets, but Oscar
Face, although nearly dead from 1ss
blood, was dragged to death, suspended
by lariat to the pommel of saddle.
-Four other members of the gang were
found dead behind their stone bariers.-

Where Is LIZ

What Napoleon Bonaparte did with
the enormous fortune he left somewhere
when sent to st. Helena, has since re-
manned mystery. In 1912 he told
Marshal Berthier, and also Bourrienne,
his private secretary, that he had nearly
100, 600, 600 francs, or $50, 900, 900 in our
money, for HIS personal fortune That
he did not expend it is certain, for
there was no occasion to do so. Then,
as emperor, the national exchequer re-
ceived and honored his drafts. In 1906,
Napoleon, after having enriched all his
family, had SIS, 900, 600 of his own. The
money received from the United States
for the Louisiana purchase he used in re-
@equipping the army that fought and won
at Austcritz and Wagram. At least S.,
000,0 600 Of that money was never ac-
counted for by the emperor. He was by
far the richest man in Europe in 1914,
and not trace of the money was left be-
hind him. The French government
thinks it has q clew.

Fish. DESTROYING Policnns.

Washoe Lake is covered with peli-
cans and seagulls. Ely Downs was III
town Saturday, and informed us that he
had been watching the pelicans through
powerful field glass and saw them
start along the edge of the tules and
catch thousands of catfish and perch.
Edward Harris was down to the little
lake last week and killed five in oae
shot. He opened them and found the
sack under the bill full of fish, the
bones of some Of the catfish being four
teen inches long. The seagulls catch
the small fsh along tho eastern shore.
With this combination, if the sporting
men don't attend to it soon, the lake
will in short time be clear of fish.
The pelicans live in the tules from the
old windmill to Franktown and can be
easily got. A person can crawl up
nearly close enough to kill them with a
fishing pole. Hy says that there are
about five thousand of them, and that
they feed about tive times day and
catch from five to eight every time they
feed. At this rate it won't be long be-
fore the lake will have no fish in it.
These birds can be easily driven off.
Let the Carson spOrtsmen go to the
south end Of the lake with their shot
guns and the Storey County sportsmen
to the north end. and Franktown and
Washoe City to the west side and kill
as many as they can and in few days
they will disappear. It is too bad to
see about the only sport we have in the
way OF fishing, and so near home, so to
ruin by these birds --[CarsOn (Neb)

Money Mndn Konninr Hens.

Hundreds Of farmers who never kept an ac-
count, would kill every "pesky hen" on the
farm, If it was not for the women folks" The
women intuitively know that the hens do not
"eat their headssoff every six months" but
properly kept pay better than any other farm
animals
This is true. A record, simple to keep. so it
would be used and show the facts in detail,
would prove that every hen paid profit. They
could be made to pay, from one to three dollars
each. Mr.. James l.. Burgess, Nashua, n. H..
reported to the Nashau telegraph that his
wife made a clean net profit last year, of $sS659
for eggs alone, from only sixteen hens. He
thinks her success was largely due to using
Sherldan's Condition Powder, a much adver-
tised preparation to make hens lay.
