NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. HOME
Ben Pagan, of Ellsworth, Comes in
Collision With Women Managers.

Collision With w omen managers.
Ben Pagan of Ellsworth, it is charged
attempted TO throw the first obstacle
in the way OF the progress Of the work
towards the completion of the new w
r. c. home and hospital at the reunion
grounds near Ellsworth.
These grounds have been in the con-
troll of the G. A. r. of Kansas for sew
eral years but were leased to the W. r.
c. for the purposes to which they viii
be dedicated Aug. Z, under the name
Mother Bickerdyke, W. r. G Home
and Hospital"
The board of managers of the insti-
tuition is composed of the head officers
OF the C. A R., ". R. c. and Sons of
Veterans and trustees OF the w. R c.
The first official meeting of the board
was held a t Ellsworth last week.
When the managers arrived at Els
worth they found 13 of the Is cottages
occupied and men at work farming the
land which is a part of the home The
arrival of the managers created cOnster-
nation among the renters who were,
however, by the board given permits
sion to remain upon the land until in
October, but the manage reserved the
privilege of going ahead with improve
ments and remOdeling the buildings
and cottages.
1t was with some degree of surprise
that the managers We're informed by
the renters that they had been told that
the management of the grounds had not
changed and that those who occupied
the cottages and rented the land would
not be disturbed. The extension of time
was granted, however, and all of the
managers except Mrs. Julia Chase, past
department president OF the w. r. c.,
left Ellsworth
Monday morning Ben Pagan of Ellis
worth called upon Mrs. Chase and in
formed her that he had a lease for the
grounds and that the managers had
nothing whatever to do with it. Mrs.
Chase said:
win you let me see the lease2''
why, certainly" said Pagan
Mrs Chase examined the document
and said;
"Of what value is this? There are no
signatures here except yours and that
of your son Why do you not have the
Signatures of the officers of the grand
army who have the power to lease
those grounds ?"
THAT isn't necessary exclaimed Fa-
gan.
We'll, I think it is. and what is more
Mr.. Pagan, We will continue our work
and will brook no Interference
II seems that Mr. Pagan has been
renting out the land to tenants and
prOhting thereby The records of the
G. A r. show that the board of trustees
first placed in charge of the grounds
made no lease TO Pagan as he claimed
and the first official action of that char
Rcter was taken when the grounds were
leased to the w r. c. through the
agency OF Mrs. Chase, who was then
department commander
The hospital will be dedicated August
and will be followed by a three davs'
reunion.
The institution will be dedicated in
honor OF Mother Bickerdyke. On July

The YerascOpe Shows a Foul
Blow
FitZ Struck COrbett When He
Was Down.
RESULT NOT AFFECTED
As the Californian Was Already
Knocked Out.
Was Swift Uppercut on Cor
belts Jaw.

New York, May 1.-THE verascope
pictures of the Corbett- FitzsimmOns
fight are to be exhibited in public for
the first time this week. The reports of
a foul blow struck by Fitzsimmons will
then be confirmed. The completed pic
lures set the question at rest. But as to
the effect of the blow on the result of
the fight there is only one thing to be
said-Corbett would have been knocked
out any way. 1t was the sOlar-plexus
punch that did the business, not the
foul rap on the jaw.
The pictures are in long strips of
films" two inches in width and about
an inch in depth During the fight they
were run off at the rate of about 20 a
second. There can be no doubt, there
fore, as to the character of the foul
The pictures show that as Corbett
sinks to the floor with FitzSimmOnS
looming above him, the long left arm Of
the Australian swings back, then comes
forward in a swift upper-cut for the
left point of COrbett's jaw. As the blow
starts it seems that FitzslmmOnS real
ICES what he is doing. He appears to
try with all his might to hold the blow
back, but it lands, nevertheless.
Corbett's right glove is on the floor
when he catches it. FitzsimmOns' back
is turned to the spectators, but the pic
lures show the sweep of the glove
plainly. The referee stands beyond
both men, at a distance of about six
feet. There is an agreement between
the fighters that when one of them is
knocked down the other shall retire to
a distance of 10 feet. Corbett is down.
FitzsimmOns does not retire until he
has given the Californian a wallOp on
the jaw while the latters glove is
touching the floor.
1t does not seem to do much harm.
It knocks the CalifOrnian's head to one
side about two feet. Then FitzsimmOns
apparently realizes what he has done.
He steps away to the required distance
and the fight comes to an end.

Possibly local showers this after
noon; fair tonight and Thursday"
This mild announcement by the
weather bureau in its 10 o'clock bulletin
today lily prepared people for the por-
tentious, cross-whirIing bank of clouds
that came up over the northwest While
everybody was at dinner.
The hour just before noon had been
sultry, with wind from the southwark;
the sudden appearance of the storm
from the opposite direction naturally
aroused Observation-Disclosures were the
conditions for the formation of the
dreaded WhirlWind. In an incredibly
short time after the first knots Of pc
deStrianS gathered at the corners, the
streets were filled with anxious and
frightened people, who watched the bat
tie above them with direst expectation.
The black cohorts, lightning Ve1ned,
cOurSed like race horses down from the
northwest, and SQuarely over the city
met the hot wind that came from the
south. Instantly a mad storm was
created in mid air; masses of clouds,
black blue and pale gray heaved and
tossed and were torn into fragments,
until the detached portions began to
circle, at a point about the Welsh resi-
dence-and the awful Cyclone" was a
thing created before the eyes of the be-
holders.
HappiI-- the disturbance was high in
air. and went whirling off on a tangent
to the southeast, where it was apparent

FOUR OF A KIND.
And All Brainy.

Four business men sat talking in an
office, when the subject of food and
drink came up.
One said that he had suffered for some
six months from a peculiar sensation in
the head and had been under the care of
a physician until he happened to read an
article on the coffee topers of Paris, in
which the testimony of a number of ply
sicians was given. to the effect that cof-
fee contained the same poisonous ele-
nents as strychnine, morphine. tobacco
and whiskey but in smaller quantities.
This set him to thinking, with a result
that coffee was left out of his diet. and
in less than a week the head trouble was
gone Each of the other three gentlemen
coffee had proved a sly and insiduous
enemy instead of a friend, as in each
case some stomach, liver or nervous
trouble had been produced by even mod
crate coffee drinking
One added the remark that 1T was
hard to give over coffee, but 1 got some
Postum coffee, made of grains at Battle
Creek, Mich. and it is so perfect in color
and taste that am enjoying my coffee
now daily, as are also my wife and child
rem, for Postum is made of pure grains,
(wheat etc.) and is nourishing and fat
tening, pure -food-drink and another
feature not to be despised is the fact
that it goes about three times as far as
coffee, although, of course. the economy
is not nearly so great a question as that
