Chas. Smith, the man who was
brought up from Humboldt on the 10th
with 500 fine and 80 days imprison-
ment for disturbing the peace, was re-
leased Tuesday by habeas corpus pro-
ceedings before the Probate Judge,
the writ being granted on the ground
that the punishment didn't fit the
crime, being heavier than the law
provides for Offenses of the nature of
that he had committed. He then
went before Justice Duncan, pleaded
guilty, and was fined S1.O0 and costs.
Union: Under Sheriff Hobart was
here Friday afternoon of last week
and arrested Ed. VOght on a charge
of violating the prohibitory liquor
law. He gave bond in the sum of 800
for his appearance at the next term of
the district court. The warrant was
of the search and seizure kind and the
officer confiscated the bar, ice chest
and other paraphernalia located on
the lower floor of the corner building
formerly know as the dining room of
the old Monroe House. But very
little liquor was captured.
Heretofore comparatively little men,
tion has been made of the rock crush
er that the city bought some time ago.
We did not want to crow until we
saw how it was going to pan out as
an experiment. But we want to COM
mend it as one of the best steps taken
by any council for years. The ma
chine is success and the road that
has Just been finished near the Santa
Fe depot is the finest in town. This
| is good work and should be kept up.
The proper authorities should see to
it that this kind of a road be laid the
entire distance to jones' lake. 1t
would bring hundreds of dollars to
lola.
The most coveted honor that comes
to any student at the State University
is election to the Phi Beta Kappa So
ciety. 1t is purely honorary socie-
ty and only those who have maintain
ed the highest standard of scholar
ship during their whole four years
course are eligible to membership,
the selection being made from the
Senior class each year by the Faculty
and the graduate members of the
society. For all these reasons the
REGISTER is proud to note that of the
seven students out of this years class
of more than seventy upon whom the
highly priced honor was conferred
two are from IOla,-Miss Grace Brew
ster and Mr.. John Henderson.

DIR. Jackson, a distinguished physi-
clan of Kansas City, was summoned
last Tuesday to attend Mr.. L. l.. Nor
thrup, in the bare hope that he might
be able to suggest a treatment that
had not been thought of by the fami-
ly physician, DR.. Boulson. After a
careful examination he gave it as his
opinion that the patient was suffering
from softeniDg of the brain, together
with enlargement of the heart, from
either of which causes he might pass
away at any moment, although he
might survive for weeks and possibly
months, but from which it was not
to be hoped that he might ultimately
recover. The diagnosis agreed in all
essential particulars with that al
ready made by DIR. BoulsOn and
the other physicians that have made
a study of the case, and DR.. Jackson
was of the opinion that the remedies
that have been used were the best
that could be suggested. The sympa-
