A chicagoan Who Got Into Trouble
with the Japanese Jargon.

Five Chicagoans arrived at Albu-
querque. n NJ, one day late in
August. They were taken in charge
by Frank Blake, Chicago boy, who
has lived in the West for some years,
and were soon shown all the sights of
the quaint old town. AS they walked
along the principal street Mr. Jani-
son looked up at building and re.
marked

Funny custom. What $ this church

Jamison looked panied but accepted
the correction. A moment later he
broke out again. Whats this: la

mentor by his side. and Jamison's
eyes began to roll. So it went
through the whole town. Blake
corrected Jamison at every turn.
When they all got back to the hotel
Jamison had strange. drawn ex-
preston on his face, but nobody paid
much attention to him. He went
into the dining room and called
waiter.
Bring me. said Mr.. Jamison, in
slow. measured accents, "some fricas-
seed hack rabbit, with apple belly.
and let me have mint huiep before
the meat, please
The waiter stared at him, and some
body at the next table snickered.
That was the last straw. The Chicago
man sprang to his feet. ablaze with
indignation. by hingol' he

electricity Not Dangerous.

The figures recently published by
the city OF Boston show how unfair
this cry has been and the fact that the
trolley is not half SO black as it is
painted, for in one year the West End
electric cars carried II9, 900, 900 people,
which is many more than all the rail
road lines in and out of Boston carry.
In one year the number of deaths on
suburban railways was twenty. In
the same year five people were killed
by horse cars in Boston, and only three

Twenty-Five Pound pineappIes.

The pineapple growers of Florida
are doing good work. Few people
know what pine at its best really is.
Instead Of the wooden hearted things
that pass for pineapples commonly,
they are going to popularize the most
delicious species OF the tropics. They
are experimenting now with pines
from all over the world to discover
those best adapted to cultivation in
Florida. One English gentleman,
established on the shores of Lake
Worth has some twenty-five species
growing, and there is as much differ
ence among them as among so many

C. j. ROSEN DYING.
Operated On to "see What Was the
Matter With Him"

c. J. Rosen, the we'll known Topeka
contractor, is dying at the Stormont
hospital in this city. The attending
physicians say that he will not live
through the day.
Mr.. Rosen was removed to the hospi-
tai from his home last week. He has
been troubled with a liver affection for
several years, and it was with the hope
of affording him a chance of recovery
that he was operated on at the hoSpi-
tai Saturday. Several physicians dag
nosed Mr.. Rosens trouble as cancer of
the liver, while others held different
views. All of the physicians knew
that an operation would be of no avail
if the diagnosis of cancer OF the liver
was correct, but with the idea of de-
termining the diagnosis and the hope
of giving him chance of recovery if
the affection was not of a cancerous
nature, the operation was performed.
C. J. Rosen has resided in Topeka for
the past % years, and during that time
has been engaged in the business of
contractor and builder. His home is
at 306 Topeka avenue.
Later-C. J. Rossen, the well known
contractor and builder who has been
suffering with cancer several weeks,
died at noon today at his home, 306 To-
peka avenue.

OLIvER'S TODAY.
Hearing of the Veteran
Charged With Blowing Up
Smiths Home.

Ieavenworth, June 15.-The prelimi-
nary trial of Joseph w. Oliver, the vet
eran who is accused of trying to blow
up Governor Smiths house with bomb
last Friday morning, will take place be
fore United States Commissioner Moore
today. Oliver has secured an attorney
to conduct the preliminary examination
and ii is given out that the defense VIII
ask for a postpOnement to afford them
time to prepare their side of the case.
oliver has been restless since he was
identified by J. W Hillner Of Atchlson,
as the man who purchased dynamite
from him last Wednesday. He told Mr..
Hillner he wanted to use the dynamite
to blow up den of wolves.
He sent for reporter to take down
a statement for him and afterwards de
clined to give it. When the reporter
called Oliver was wild with excitement
and could not be Gained down. He took
a bundle of paper to write a statement
himself, and worked four hours on it
He burned considerable of his manu-
script, but prepared six pages, which
was taken charge of by his attorneys,
who refused to give it to the press for
publication.
In talking to the reporter in the pres
ence of ex-City Marshal Joseph Wal
ters, Oliver said, among other things,
during his wild talk:
They VIII hang me. They will hang
me when they know it all. I'll die like
a sheep. 1 am ready to die any time.
Smith has got them all to swear against
me and there are traitors around"
At one stage of the cOnVerSati ton he
became excited and said: III be hung.
It's no use trying to prevent it. I have
been told all my life that I would die
on the gallows, and it's to be so. Yes,
I feel my time has come, but they will
hang an innocent man"
Later on, in response to a question,
oliver said: THE man who bought me
a ticket to go to AtchisOn was Frank
Russell He lives in a brick house back
of the Washington house. CO and see
him and come back and tell me what
he says and then I'll tell you some
thing"
It was late before the reporter. met
Mr.. Russell. who was told of divers
statement and was asked what truth
there was in it. Mr.. Russell replied:
IF Mr.. Oliver says that I bought his
ticket he must know I never told any
detective that I did So They must
have found it out by other parties"
The reason Mr.. Russell bought a tick
ct for Oliver was to give him the ad-
vantage of the half rate granted to vet
Grams on furlough. Oliver had Jumped
the gate a the home and could not Sc
cure this rate. Mr. Russell says there
is no secret about his procuring the
ticket for Oliver and. he knew nothing
about his mission tC Atchison.

communication from Eugene V. Debs. re-

scheme in Utah. The proposition must

Debs desires a large concession of land.

railroad company has plenty of land in
that country, yet the kind Debs wants,
suitable for agricultural community
as well as commercial enterprises. is
valuable and on the market at good fig

the members of Debs' company viii be
arranged as with any other colony desiring
rates, but with the land donation propo-
sition it is different. It is and always
has been the policy of the Union Pacific
company to donate lands for colonies to
a limited extent, and to encourage immi-
grafton by such means along its line,
but the Debs scheme is much more elab-
crate than the company has ever been
called upon to deal with before.

Atchison, June 15.-The Atchison ball
club will play at Parsons on Wednesday
and Thursday of this week, and at Pa
ola on Friday and Saturday, returning
home next Sunday.
Stricklett, of Mound City, Mo, has
been signed to play third base with
Atchison. This will cause a roar, as
the fans are satisfied with Dick Brown.
Manager Mitchell says St. Paul will
not play in Atchison; that Comisl1y
wants the earth.
The state league is almost a certainty
now. Atchison, Topeka, Junction City
and Emporia are ready to begin at any
time, but the trouble is that Emporia
will not play on Sunday, either at home
or elsewhere For this reason, a fifth
club is necessary, and Abilene will
probably come in Junction City and
Atchison will be the Sunday towns.
Eyler may sign with Atchison yet,
although he wants more money than
the local management can afford to
pay.
Topeka will play in Atchison next
Sunday; Topeka Will play in Atchison
on the Fourth of July.
