and suggest that it be proven false or
true, right now.
We have been told that during the
Legislative session, through the inau-
ence Of a republican state official, a
pure young girl from a country town
secured a place as enrolling clerk. She
felt grateful to her benefactOr and
called on him to express her thanks
and the brute told her that he wasn't
in the habit of receiving that sort Of
pay for his services.
The girl replied that she had not yet
received her wages, but when she did
she would pay him whatever commiss-
ion he deemed proper.
The cur then turned upon her and
told her that she could pay him by COM
ing to his room that night.
Words failed the shocked young
woman. but when he started towards
her she ran from the Office in terror
Holding her hands to her face to hide
her shame and crying as if her heart
would break, she told her story to an
other officer. Where was the man.

shameful story was heard? Is there
no father therein who dares to defent
a stranger even as he would his OWL
child?
Was there no brother within the
walls Of the state house of Kansas
manly enough to resent such conduct?
We do not at this time know the
name or position of this officer, but we
are told that Governor Morrill, knows
Of the 0f1icers's misconduct and this in
stance or others of similar character
caused him to recommend and work
for the adjustment Of the enrolling
clerk system. IL this story be untrue

POPLAR BLUFF, Mo-, May S.-There
is considerable excitement in this city
over the appearance of smallpox at
Poplin, a small station on the Cairo
branch of the st. Louis, Iron Mountain
& Southern railway, ii miles east of
this city. DIR. G. D. Adams has been
sent by the city authorities to investi-
gate, and he reports nine unmistak-
able cases OF smallpox. Three new
cases were reported at Poplin yester-
day. This city is now quarantined
against Poplin, and it is hoped the
disease may be stamped out without
spreading. An investigation of the
matter proves that the disease has pre-
vailed in that town since about March
20, but not until this week has it been
pronounced smallpox. Only one death
has occurred. Most of the cases are Of
q mild type.

Miss Johnson is from Fort Smith, Ark,

Mrs. Collins provided herself with a re-

the street, deliberately shot her. The
ball struck just below the lower rib on

correspondent OF ---- who
spoke to him, saying:
what are you doing here on tbs
street drunk like 'this?"
The state official was able to explain
that he was trying to get to the santa
Fe depot TO catch train for Kansas
City, and the newspaper man at
tempted to help him get on passing
street car.
The good Samaritan's efforts were in
vain, however, as the state official vas
too drunk to get on the car.
He was then started in the direction
of the depot, and finally got there on
foot, but too late to catch his train,
which had gone ten minutes before he
he arrived.
Now that Chairman Cyrus Leland,
of the republican state central COM
mittee, has been so successful in inyes-
tigating the charges of drunkenness
against State Senator Rogers, it would
be well for him to turn his attention
to one of the state officers, a member
Of the executive council, who makes a
drunken spectacle of himself in public
places.
Under the Kansas laws, drunken.
ness is sufficient cause for the removal
of any state or county officer, either
elective or appointive, if it is positive
ly proven that the officer was drunk.
Appointive officers can be removed
on the findings Of an investigation
committee, such as the Rogers inYes-
tigation committee, while elective
officers must be tried by court and
impeached.
Last Sundays performance invites
investigation.

A Chance to Repeat the Rogers
Investigation.
State journal tRep.,

State Journal Rep)
A disgraceful scene occurred on the
main street Of the capital city Of Kan
sas last Sunday, which throws dis
credit on one Of the most important
offices of the administration.
The facts have been whispered about
for some days, but today the truth
came to light in such a way that it ad-
mitS of no question.
The republican party Of Kansas is
being disgraced by one Of the state
officers elected last fall on the same
ticket with Governor Merrill. This
state officer only last Sunday made a
shocking spectacle of himself in Tope-
ka, on Kansas avenue, in broad day
light.
Last Sunday afternoon this state Off
Ger was in Topeka, and it had been pre-
yiously arranged that he was to go to
meet other members of the executive
council. and they were to go out Kan
sas City over the Missouri Pacific rail
way.
At 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon the
officer in question was seen at the
Copeland, and his acq laintance who
saw him and talked with him knew,
from his appearance and actions, that
he had been drinking.
He told a Topeka newspaper man
that he was going to Kansas City, but,
as it was too late for the Rock Island,
he would take the Santa Fe train at 6
O'Clock.
A few minutea before O'Clock he
started for the Santa Fe depot to catch
his train. He staggered from one side
of the walk to the other, utterly un-
able to regulate his course, his shame
full condition visible to scores OF people
along the street, some of whom knew
him, and some did not.
To those who knew that he occupied
one of the highest positions in the gift
of the people, il was notifying exhi-
btiOn.
A short distance north of the Cope
land, on Kansas avenue, he was, while
sWayirg almost from one side of the
broad walk to the other, met by the

Major Alyord says the udder Of the
COW is neither II vessel, a bag nor a
sponge. 1t does not hold any appreciate
quantity Of completed milk at any one
time. The milk cisterns, in which alone
the completed milk is to be found in the
udder are quite small, the four to-
gether not containing more than a pint.
The glands between the milkngs bring
together the materials, store up a con
siderable quantity of the serum or fluid
portion and prepare to make the milk.
The globules of fat are formed in the
cells of the udder and are part of the
anatomy of the COW, like the fat of any
other part of the animal. They are
formed by the building process, ripen,
loosen or drop off and are then moved
along, fOated by the serum through the
ducts and channels to the cisterns. This
final process the mixing of fats and
serum in due proportion to make milk,
occurs almost wholly during the active
operation of milking The distended
udder may indicate that the COW is
ready for milking, but it is not true
that the udder is full of mix Milk
making of nature is coincident with the
act of milking

FERMENTATlON STARTER.
Professor Robertson Gives Directions For
Making II.

The following is a way in which a
cultare Of Tactic ferment was made at
the Central Experimental Farm dairy.
from which fermentation starters
were prepared
A quantity Of about two quarts Of
skimmilk was heated at 205 degrees +
The temperature Was maintained at that
point for ten minutes, after which, and
while exposed to the atmosphere Of the
butter making room, it was cooled to 50
degrees +. 1t was left in q closed glass
stoppered bottle at the ordinary temper
allure Of the dairy room, from 60 TO 10
degrees f, for five days. 1t was then
found to be coagulatcd and to possess a
mild, pure Tactic acid flavor, which be.
came more distinct after it had been
kept in cold water at temperature Of
30 degrees +. for three days. This was
the culture. The flavor Of It was such as
was characteristic Of cream from which

the ripeniDg of cream were prepared
from it.
A fermentation starter may be pre-
pared from skimmilk which is pure,

heated to 100 degrees +. and left at that
temperature for ten minutes. 1t may
then be cooled 10 temperature Of 50
degrees F., when portion Of the cul-
ture, as described above, at the rate If
10 per cent Of the quantity of the skim
milk, should be added to it. That be
comes the fermentation starter -
The fermentation starter should be
left to ripen at temperature not ex-
ceeding so degrees f. for 90 hours
| When the flavor and odor are distinctly
acid, it should be placed in cold water
at q temperature of 40 degrees f. in or
der to arrest further development Of
the ferment
The bacteria cultures for the making
of fermentation starters" may now be
obtained also in the market from firms
who deal in dairy supplies.
Where no undesirable flavor exists
and no difficulty has been experienced
| in churniug, some buttermilk of pure,
nice flavor may be used as a "fermenta-
! ton starter for the cream. If at any
time the flavor of the butter seems to

cured, as described above
The fermentation starter" may be
added to the cream at the rate of from
3 to 10 per cent of the quantity of
cream.
In any case where the cream has be-

Noeleker, says has IAN extremely deli
cate flavor and all the agreeable smell
which characterizes good meadow hay.
He says further that "a hot infusion of
the new feed could hardly be distin-
guished from hay tea. The new feed
seems to take the place partly of hay
and partly Of ensilage, and it should be
remembered i'll seasons when the hay

Since its organization the Red Cross
has been foremost in doing good works.
Wherever there has been human want
and suffering-in the orm swept islands
of the South Atlantic coast, in famine
stricken Russia, in the military hospi-
tails during the China-Japauese val
the flag of the Red Cross has gone and
it has always been respected. An Off
eial announcement has just been made
that "Owing to the unanimous and ur-
gent appeals from friends of humanity
representing nearly all the people of this
country, the American National Red
Cross has decided it must accept the
sacred trust of eudeavoring to relieve
the starving Armenians in Asia Minor
As soon as sufficient funds are placed at
it's disI osal, or guaranteed the Red
Cross " i'll start for Turkey. This is a
most heroic resolve for never has the
organization faced greater dangers.
The very emblem of the society, the
Red Cross badge, though it means only
peace and good will, is of a nature to
excite the fanaticism of the followers of
the Mohammedan faith. Other dangers
are the prevailing lawlessness, lack of
roads and the probable opposition of the
Turkish officials Bnt the association
has considered all these difficulties and
still feels it duty to make the attempt,
The help is terribly needed and the
American people Will doubtless respond
with their usual generosity to the APP
peal for funds, Miss Clara Barton, the
president, will herself take charge of
their distribution.

exile to this country, and it is a moving
story of wrongs and oppression. Senior
Yarona accuses Spain of having denied
to Cubans all effective powers in their
own country; of having condemned
them to political inferiority; of having
confscated the product of their labor
without giving them in return ,afety,
prosperity or education; of having ex-
plotted, demoralized and impoverished
