ing rather large salaries for their serv-
ices. Many Kansas farmers have sold
their farms at a sacrifice to avoid be-
ing foreclosed.
Representative Brown of Kansas teS-
titled that the cost of raising corn in
Kansas is from 16 to 25 cents, the sell
ing price from 10 to 13 cents. Wheat
raiserS in his county had all failed.
Kansas grain raisers had a little to eat
and a little to wear, and that was about
all. There were no foreclosures in his
county during the past year. as nearly
everybody had been previously sold
out. No statistics are in existence that
he knew of by which the earning ca
pacity of a Kansas railroad can be
gagged. About One-third of the mile
age of Kansas should never have been
built especially that of the Missouri
Pacific.
Other witnesses were introduced by
Mr.. Crane from different points in Tex
as to SHOW that at least 70 per cent of the
flour consumed in Texas comes from
Kansas and the hearing closed and the
meeting adjourned until today, when
the complaint of the st. Louis Business
Mems league viii be taken up.

SIMPLE HEALTH HINTS.
Hygfenic Facts with which Every
body Should Be Familiar.

HyEienic Facts with Which Every
body Should BE Familiar.
A simple hygienic fact for many Peo-
pie yet to learn is, that the skin of a
fruit is no part of the fruit itself,
dietically considered. The bloom of
the peach is luxuriant growth of mi
crobes, and unwashed grapes, eaten
skins and all, viii show 100000 mi
crobes for each fluid ounce of stomach
fluid. These facts are proof positive
of the necessity for thoroughly washing
all raw fruit before it is eaten.
The nape of the neck, the lower part
of the back of the head, the front of the
abdomen and the shins are the chief
regions of the body susceptible to cold.
A chill, however. may be carried to the
nervous system from other parts.
The following rules for avoiding a
cold cannot be too often formulated:
Never let cold air blow on the back of
the neck or head.
Keep the abdomen warmly clad.
Cover the shins when riding.
Change wet shoes and stockings with
cut delay.
Never sit on a stone or on damp grass.
It is not generally known that roasted
The best mode is to dry the raw bean,
pound it in a mortar and then roast the
powder on a moderately heated iron
plate until it is of a, dark brown tint.
Sprinkle it in sinks, or expose it on a
plate in any room to be purified

CHILD SCARED TO DEATH.
Four Year Old Child Thrown Into
Spasms by Dream.

Kansas City, April 19-Carl w.
Theme, the 2-year-old son of J. w
Theme, a barber working in Bales hail.
corner of Twelfth and Porter road, died
suddenly yesterday morning of spasms.
The family home is at 1926 Cleveland
avenue. Saturday evening Mrs. Theme
took the child, who was an unusually
healthy and rugged appearing boy to
the home of her sister, Mrs. NJ. J. RAJ
mey. 1916 East Sixteenth street. where
she intended to spend Easter Sunday.
Saturday evening the boy ate a
hearty supper, including many sweet
meats, and played about his auntS
home as if in the best of health. Mrs.
Theme put the child to bed at his
usual hour, but about midnight she was
awakened by his cries He was Strik-
ing about with his little hands and
crying as if in terror. She thought he
was dreaming and the mother attempt
ed to awaken him. She succeeded in
partly arousing him, but as he opened
his eyes he apparently imagined he
saw something which intended to harm
him, and went into a spasm. DR.. S. A
Durham was hastily summoned, but
the child died without regaining con-
seriousness. The doctor gave it as his
opinion that the child had eaten too
much for his supper, and the condition
of his stomach had brought about his
horrible dream, which frightened the
child into a spasm.

ABILENE
GOES DRY.
Six Joints Pulled on Bench
Warrants Issued.
County Attorney Kane Says the
Law is Plain.
MUST GO.
Some Prominent Citizens in the
Deal.
Complaint Made BY Ex-MayOr
A. w. Rice.
SALOONS MUST GO

Abilene, April 19.-The expected has
happened again and Abilene is in the
throes of a war on the joints, with Gen.
A w. Rice leading the prohibition
forces on information filed by Mr..
Rice Saturday bench warrants were is
sued against Chas. T. Estes, in two
cases. G. W. c. Rohrer, Vim. Matthews.
Alfred Moman, J. H. Dean and one
other who has not yet been arrested
All but the latter We're seen by the
sheriff or one of his deputies and placed
under arrest, bond being given in the
sum of 5000 in each case except that of
Matthews, who has not been able to
secure bail and is in prison.
The list of witnesses subpoenaed in
cludes Richard Waring and Charles
Harger.
A. w. Rice assumes all responsibility
for the raid and said that during the
race he recently made for member of
the council from the Second ward that
it was repeatedly charged by women
who profess to be temperance workers
and who We're opposing him merely in
the interests of Mr.. Ellison that he had
sold out to the whisky element and had
thrown to one side all his prohibition
ideas.
Some of those arrested denounce the
move as a political scheme. Mr.. Estes
SO regards it and charges it to County
Attorney Kane. The latter, however,
says he is doing his plain duty in is
suing warrants on sworn information
and the law leaves no other course of
action open to him. Matthews. one of
the accused men, is a POpulist, and
another, Dean, was against the RepUb-
hcan ticket at the late election. The
claim that it is a political deal is due no
doubt to the fact that all the joint
keepers were not pulled. but Mr.. Rice
says the war is but just opened and if
these cases stick there is more to fol-
low.
There are six joints running in the
town by consent of the powers that be
and have been for several wears.

He Has Been in the Hands of the Po-
lice Before.

Last night about 10 o'clock the police
were called to a. house on Monroe street

The charge of drunkenness was put

engage in many drunken braWls Some
time ago he lived at Maple Hill, and
was supposed to have considerable
money, which he spent freely.
Yesterday in the city jail Pollnecci
came near having delirium tremens,
and it was necessary to call in ply

counties, Kansas will meet next
Thursday at Perry, Jefferson county, to

cept a very unsatisfactory ferry. which
is not running more than half the time.

SANTA FFs NEW SYSTEM
The Hall System Adopted for Use II
the Argentine Yards.

Kansas City, April 19.-The Santa Fe
Railway company is installing system
of automatic signals in its yards be-
tween Turkey creek and the western
limits in Argentine to guard against
wrecks.
The signals are what is known as the
Hall system and they are in use in
many large railroad yards in the east.
They consist of blocks in the tracks a
certain distance apart which, when an
engine or car passes over them, will
light a switch lamp a distance of an or
binary trains length behind. If another
train is following, it must not pass the
signal indicating that a train is on the
block in front OF it.
The company decided to install the
system after the wreck in the yards
last fall when five trains collided in a
dense fog. The. material for the con-
struction of the signals has arrived

OTHER PEOPLES MONEY
Causes Trouble to Mrs. 1EcCarrall O
North Topeka.

Saturday afternoon at 5 O'Clock as
Mrs. K U. Whitfield and her sister went
into Miss KeeneF's millinery store at
721 Kansas avenue, she left a pocket
book containing about S11 in the baby
carriage which she had brought down
with her. Her sister was visiting her
from Carbonate and the pOcketDook
was her property. It contained a re-
turn ticket to Carbonate. The ladies
made some purchases and went to get
the pocketbOOk- The baby carriage was
inside the store. Mrs. Whitfield could not
find it and she Immediately suspected
a woman who WaS in the store at the time
and had left shortly before. The ladies
followed her and saw her enter the To-
peka Cash Dry Goods store where she
purchased a yard and a half of silk
paying for it $3.50 with a ten dollar bill
Which afterWard proved to be the one
which was taken from the pOcketbOOk.
Patrolman Fowkes was notified and
he followed the woman. She was rath-
er small and well dressed, having a
black beaded cape, skirt of novelty
cloth, fancy waist and a spring hat
trimmed in purple flowers. With her
were her three little girls. all dressed in
red satin dresses and caps.
The officer followed the woman, who
was no other than Mrs. David McCar-
roll who lives in North Topeka near
ParamOre and Madison streets. She
saw him and tried to hurry away. She
had made a purchase at Warren NJ.
CrOsbyS and turned east on Sixth
was much agitated and denied any
knowledge of the money. She was ia
ken into custody by the officer and ia
ken to Police Matron ThOrpe'S office
where she was searched by the matrOn.
Part of the missing money and goods to
make up for the deficiency were found
on her. She denied having taken the
money, but Mrs. Whitfield and her sister
were positive that she had taken it.
Chief Steele tried to get her to confess
the theft, but she was stubborn. Mrs.
Thorpe all but. secured a confession.
The pocket book was not found. 1t had
probably been thrown away hurriedly
to prevent suspicion.
Owing to Mrs. Carroll having three
small children and the fact that Mrs.
Whitfield and her sister did not wish to
figure in the prosecution of a criminal
action, the case was dropped and Mrs.
McCarrolI was released.
Police MatrOn Thorpe said: Mrs.
McCarron had to be helped when her
husband was in the county jail for
stealing rugs from Chief Wilkerson.
Last year she went about wearing
white dress and a white hat and car
ried a Bible with her. [ don't know
that her husband has done anything to
make living and lately she has dress
ed very well and her children wear silks
and satins."
PatrOlman F'OwkeS said: LAS soon as
I followed that woman and she saw me
she had a guilty look. When I stopped
her she was very much ratified. She is
a sister-in-laW to that Cruger whom
Gaines killed"

school Dresses for Girls.

The head of well-known school for
girls in speaking of appropriate school
dresses advised the use of lightweight
materials. Light garments of serge
or cashmere should be worn," she said,
''and clothes of extra warmth for out
doors. Children dressed too warmly
complain of the heat of the schoolrOom
and ask to have windows opened, which
is impossible. White aprons for little
girls keep them always fresh nddainty.
If it be incuIcated that d soied apron or
hair ribbon shows a lack of refinement,
they soon acquire habits of daintiness
in the care of their clothes One thing
should like to emphasize is that it is
unfortunate that children are obliged to
wear out clothes which were made for
best in the schoolroOm. It would
seem to be much better to give them
away to poorer relatives and keep al
ways simple gowns for everyday wear -
