BROWNS STRUGGLE
To Keep From Falling Under the
Blasts of Scandal.

Blasts of Scandal.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 8. = Rev. c.
O. Brown, the Congregational minister
who accused Mrs. Davidson of black
mail, is making a determined and bitter
fight to preserve his reputation. There
has been serious split in his church
ever since the exposure of Mrs. David
son and her charges against Mr.
Brown, and the latter, in asking his con-
gregation not to judge him hastily, re-
ferred to his spotless reputation.
The bulletin which has been printing
sensational charges against Mr.. Brown,
yesterday showed that he had once be-
fore been in trouble and had been tried
by council at Rochester, Michigan.
This was seventeen years ago, and Dr.
Brown. who says he himself demanded the
investigation, was aquitted. Today Dr.
Brown relates the history of
his trial in Rochester He says
that Rev. John Armstrong, a
Methodist minister ia a neighboring
town, actuated by Jealousy wrote anony-
nous letters accusing Brown of indecent
acts. DR.. Brown says he was triumphant
ly acquitted and that the person who was
exposed as the author of the letters was
later caught in the act of stealing money
from a merchant who was his intimate
friend,

KANSAS CITY, Feb 8.-The new water
works system constructed by the Stock
Yards company recently at big expense
for the purpose of supplying water at
the yards. has not proved the success
that was expected. The machinery
works charmingly and the supply of
water is sufficient The difficulty, is.
however, that the water has a peculiar
taste and smell.
The works were completed a short
time ago and the company thought that
it would not be required to patronize the
Metropolitan Water Works company any
longer Before the water company was
ordered to turn off the water at the
yards the Stock Yards company made
test of its own plant 1t found that the
cattle would not drink the well water on
account of it being impregnated with
solution of mineral deposits, principally
iron and sulphur. A chemist has been
employed and is at work trying TO devise
some method of filtering the water which
will do away with the Objectionable odor
and taste.

Ell PAso, Tex, Feb. 8.-Bob Fitzsim-
mons rode out TO the camp of the Texas
rangers at Ysleta this afternoon on his
bicycle, and the reception given him by
the Lone Star state rifemen was some
thing of a surprise to the New Zealand
fighter. All of the rangers, or major
ity of them, happen to fancy Fitzsim-
mons chances, and when they saw him
riding towards their camp, the soldiers
gave him a reception that sounded
like a Fourth of July celebration in a
small town.
Fitz was surprised at the sound of fire.

He was royalty treated in camp and de-
clared that he might decide to join the
rangers if Maher fell before him and he
succeeded in getting out his final citizen
ship papers.

upturn occurred. On the advance
a good deal of long wheat came out, in
fact each time the market has reached
GO lately there has been a great deal Of
wheat for sale. There was a sudden
drop at the close caused by selling of
an important line of long wheat
which the pit traders have
been watching for some time.
Liverpool reported freer offerings of
Argentine and Russian wheat, though
English statistical writer's again gave
prominence to the shortage of sup
plies there and the probability
of America being able to dictate

close which may induce some selling

which would indicate any serious de-
cline in prices,
Corn and oats acted without special
features and shared the fluctuations in
wheat. Receipts of corn continue very
light.
Provisions are being sold and talked
down by packers and should the roads
clear, receipts of hogs may increase SO
as to give them the cheaper hogs they
are looking for.

jointist named Smith at Horton a few

Smith that if he would go before q lug
tice of the peace and make affidavit that
the bill was correct, and for whisky. he
would see abo ut the matter. The Joint

turned the whole thing over to the

vsntion Talking of Chinch Bugs.
HUTCHINSON, Feb. 9.-The principal
event of the farmers institute sessions
was the speech of Chancellor Snows
Chancellor Snow spoke in defense of
his chinch bug exterminator. He. said
that between the newspaper reporters on
one hand, who overestimated the ex-
terminator, and the people on the other,
who underestimated it, the chinch bug
killer ha d been grossly misrepresented
One of the greatest problems con-
fronting the Kansas farmer is that of
getting rid of the chinch bug. ChanceI-
lor Snow claims that it can be done, but
1t must be done by all at once and not in
desultory way with a field here and
there.
The discussions have developed the
fact that almost every farmer of the
county has one or more wind mills on his
place, and is experimenting in the matter
of irrigation.
