The garden is always better FOR he
ing fall plowed, and 1t can often be
done with best advantage when the
surface soil Is frozen an inch or 10 in
depth. This will not interfere with the
plowlng. The frozen soil, turned TO the
bottom OF the furrow late In the ca
son, will often remain In that condition
all winter. This will insure more
thorough pulverlzatlOn OF he OIL than
can be got in any other way. OF course
after blowing the garden, the surface
should be left ns rough as possible.
Dragging will compact 1t TOO much,
and make the freezing less effective.
There is some waste Of 'ertility IN fall
plowing, but gardens are Usually very
rich, and can afford to lose some fer
tillty II what remains IL put In more
available condition as plant food.

NOT IF ON A GOLD PLATTER.
Quay will Not have the Presidency Under
ANY Circumstances.


Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 14.-Reports
have recently been set af1oat, coming
from Washington, connecting Senator
Quay's name with the Republican nomi
nation for the presidency. Mr.. Quay
was asked today about the alleged
movement to name him and he replied:
81 would not take III on a gold plate"
When pressed for his reasons he re-
piled:
well. for two reasons. The first is
that / am not fit for 1T, and, the second
is that I would not live thirty days in
the office. My only ambition is to
take a rest and enjoy life after COM
plete my duties
Does this mean that you will not
seek a reelection to the senatorship?"
That" he answered, depends on
circumstances"
In reply TO questions as to a current
rumor to the effect that he would be
in the next cabinet, he said: There
Is not a word of truth in it
There has been more or less quiet talk
connecting Senator Quay's ambitions
with the presidency and the chairman
ship of the Republican national COM
mittee during the campaign next year.
Regarding these matters he talked re-
Gently with a national commi tteeman,
who lives in New York. These are mis-
words, in substance:
Il am not a candidate for president,
and would not accept a nomination
even If 1 could get it. 1 have abso-
lutely no ambition in that direction. I
cannot imagine the circumstance which
would induce me TO accept the chair
manship of the national committee. IT
ds place have no desire again to fill.
At my age the duties of it would be
death to me-

WESTERN LINES FEEL SAVAGE.
Ready to Turn Against Any Line that
Threatens the Association.

Chicago, Dec. IA meeting of the
trans Missouri lines of the Western Pas
senger association will be called next
week to consider the troubles between
the Denver and Rio Grande and the
Union Pacific over the tickets in Colo
RADIO and Utah There is a strong dis
position among many Of the lines TO
take sides with the Denver and Rio
Grande in the matter. although no op-
portunity has yet been given the Tn
ion Pacific to present its side of the
question. The majority of the lines
have worked SO hard TO put the Western
Passenger association on its feet once
more that they are prone TO feel strong
ly angainst any line whose actions may
in any way tend to disrupt the asso-
ciauon, and it is a sure thing that I'M
less the present matter is speedily set
tied, the trans-Missouri portion of the
agreement will be knocked into moth
ing in very short order.

Guthrie. o. T, Dec. 14.-(SpeciaL)-
One of the most astounding things in
the entire range of Jurisprudence, from
the time Of Scion down to that OF Jerry
Simpson, has just taken place in Okla
homa. This marvellous and unprece-
dented legal ruling was none other in
fact than The confession Of the judge
that he did not knew how ito decide be
tween the Htigating parties and as only
way out insisted on paying all the costs
and money involved himself
The Saltwater Gazette has the follow
ing on This singular case: Matthias
Chosen, prosperous farmer and justice
OF the peace of Clear Creek township,
has been spending a few days in this
city. He has had some queer expert
ences in the dispensation Of justice in
his locality One of these peculiar
cases came up a few days ago when he
got tangled up in a repleVin case in
which Jack Green and the Orlando bank
or were the principal actors. The JUS
tice being a German and not well versed
in law phrases and terms found after it
was too late that grievous error had
been made in the proceedings and that,
to an extent, he was to blame for the
mistakes. 1t was too late then to back
I'D and take a fresh start and as the
litigants saw they had him in a box
they were determined to hold him there.
Finally he hit upon an idea to extri-
cate himself from the difficulty, and
that was to pay the litigants the
amount each claimed out of his own
pocket. The matter was finally ad-
justed in this way, the htigants made
happy and Mr.. Chosen is $25 in hard cash
out Of pocket. His plan may be good
one 30 settle difficulties, but If he con-
tinues the practice ne will soon have
more business than he can attend to.

TENDERLo1N GIRL sUIcI DIES.
Poor Thing, She was "Not Cut Out for q
Sport"

sport.
New York. Dec. 1.-THE Tenderloin
added another chapter to its grim his
tory on Tuesday night, when Blanche
Edwards" committed suicide by TAX
ing poison on Sixth avenue. She was
but 10, yet she had made the rounds OF
gaiety-whdch is sometimes called by
a jharsher name-and sick of ill-luck
dissipation and the tinsel of the half
world she drank the burning carbolic
acid gladly.
During the evening she visited num-
Der of saloons, and after all these plac-
es had been closed, she walked TO
Tween ty-nint tn street and Sixth avenue
where she killed herself. She had pre-
viously hidden a number of friends
goodbye saying that they would not
see her around again.
Policeman Oates saw the girl fall
and hurriedly called an ambulance.
Her lips, burned and blackened by the
cruel drink she had taken, mutely told
their own story. Before the hospital
was reached she was dead.
Blanche Edwards as the young wo-
man was known, had but a short and
disappointing career in vice. She has
been in this city only few months.
Two months ago she figured in another
suicide.
1t was from her that Wilson Morris,
a young photographer, obtained the poi
son with which he ended his life The
young woman's proper name was Tillie
Lorrison. Her only known rela tive is
an aunt named De King. who is said
to be an artists model and lived at
lbs Canal street, Princeton, ". ].
This information was given by a wo-
man who has gained considerable no
toriety on her account. She is no less
a parsonage than Grace Mansfield, a
Tenderloin frequenter, whose escapasies
in New Haven with young Elliot Shep-
ard was the means of having that young
man expelled from Yale. She lives at
401s West Twenty-Ninth street, on the
floor above where the dead girl had her
room.
She said that Blanche had been be-
trayed by wealthy married man. By
him she had a child. Shortly after II
was born her betrayer deserted her.
Then the child died and the young wo-
man began wayward life. But Il
did not prove as gilded as she fancied-
AS Grace Mansfield expressed II. the
girl was not cut out for a sport
Blanche often threatened to kill her
self, according TO the Mansfield girls
story. The latter said that she and
Blanche and a number OF women We're
drinking together at midnight in the
rear room of Paddy the Pigs" saloon
at Thirieth street and Sixth avenue
Blanche was downhearted because she
was broke
Il spit the best part Of s. with her
said Grace. land told her TO cheer up"
After leaving the place she met a
young man named Eddie Smith and
bade him goodbye She also babe fare
we'll to several cabmen who joked with
her about her respondent mood. at
IS the last you VIII see OF me, boys" she
said seriously.

OKLAHOMA OUTLINES.

Thirty bales Of cotton were marketed
In Guthrie last Thursday.
1t costs just $3.50 a day to keep Okla

The Choctaw road is still advertising

and a quarter day.
1t never was solved what became Of
that deputy marshal from Texas who
killed Slaughter Kid
There is said to be a scheme on to
create supreme court in Oklahoma that
does not sit on cases below.
Like the Kansas farmers most of the
Oklahoma farmers who are able are hold

There has been rush at county treas
