peighbor whom he had robbed refused
To prosecute him. This so aroused
his shame that he decided to return
the pig. In doing so he had the old
experience of the man with the I'M
ruiv animal. 1t ran forty ways at once,
tangled up the legs of the old man,
who was finally so battered and
bruised that he was obliged to let 60
and call in the services of a surgeon.
The pig thus liberated went on a for
aging tour of the neighborhood and
was finally killed in the midst of a
flower bed on the lawn of an over
wrought citizen. The newspapers
the next day devoted considerab BILE
space to the ludicrous incident, in
which Mr.. Pig was spoken of as the
central figure in a neighborhood
drama, in which an old fool with less
sense than the pig. but whose name
was omitted out of consideration, was
mentioned casually. When the as
had the accounts of the affair
the next day, with a word of con-
graduation that the papers had
thoughtfully eliminated mention of
u
EN- barrassing incident, in which a pig
had figured so conspicuously but so
lamentably, he turned over on his
pillow and exclaimed with a sigh,
well the pig got his name in the
paper, anyway Toward the end of
last falls campaign, in his zeal to be
identified with what was going on Mr..
Andrews entertained himself by writ
ing anonymous communications to the
Union, one dGy over one signature
and commenting the same the next
under another nom de plume. The
caper must have amused even the
Union, but as Franks performance
was harmless, and he was INDUCED,
and when election was over he was
given the satisfaction of havinga COM
ment which he handed in with his
own name mentioned, on the
result published. He thus Jared
better than the man with the
pig. Still Frank was not satisfied.
He was anxious as ever to be busy,
and to have all know of his Affections
in his struggle for fame. The conse
quence was that when The ARGUS re-
ferred to his distress a few days ago
it gave him his long cherished oppor.

In it is recited how the election OF
lastfall was, after all. intended by tn,
people as Il vindication of Andrews
and how his appointment as deputy
sheriff was a tribute to organize
labor. And he speaks, too, of TIL

WIEN THE ARGrs accnrded Frank

WHEN The ARGUS accorded Frank
Andrews the distinction of mentioning
his name in connection with politics,
even though in the light of ridicule.
it realized that it was affording that
individual great source of satisfac-
ton. The chronic vino is new to
politics and is desperately anxious for
recognition. no matter how. fairly
delights in any attention that may be
shown him, and the paper that honors
him with mention of his name is very
apt to repose under his pillow at night
The story has been told of a notoriety-
craving individual who had laboretl
vainly for years To have a respectable
paper take note of him. He did not
care how, so his name appeared in
print One day, driven TO despera-
ton. all other efforts having failed,
he stole a pig from his neigbbor. That
would lead TO his arrest, he thought,
and then the papers would all have to
record the circumstance. What was
his dismay, therefore, when the

The ear marks of more than one
familiar campaign busy body who
cannot restrain the temptation to
take up pen when an election is on,
and whose observations were passed
in as original, were discernible in yes
terday mornings Union. The anony-
nous correspondent having lost his
grip in the face of public condemna-
ton, these worthless who run the
Union in election time are permitted
TO enjoy the privileges of the editorial
chair. The Union should be ashamed
of having so little self respect.

The remains of Sanford Grosvenor
Powell, who died in Cuba while serving
his country with Company B 10th Unit
ed States Infantry, were inferred in the
national cemetry at Rock Island
arsenal yesterday afternoon. The
body came from New York in an her
metically sealed casket, around which
was wrapped the stars and stripes, ar
irving here on the fast mail. 1t was
met by detachment of soldiers fur
nished by Commandment Blunt, and
taken to the government island, where
it was guarded until the hour for the
funeral services, when it was taken to
the First Baptist church, in Moline,
where Rev. c. r. Bryant officiated,
paying fitting tribute to the noble deeds
performed by so young a life, which
was sacrificed in the cause of flag and
country. There was an immense out
pouring of people, those who could
not find room in the church lining up
on the sidewalks to get a glimpse of
the casket that bore all that was
mortal of the youthful soldier.
The soldiers acted as pallbearers
and escort. Graham post, G.. \. r
also attended in body The process
sion that made its way over the Mo-
line bridge to the arsenal cemetery
was large and imposing one. There

by Rev. Bryant. A salute for the

DYER excerpts.
Wichita Man Takes Issue With At
torneY General

F. r. Dyer of Wichita, superintendent
of the city schools and president of the
State Teachers association and an ap-
pIicant for the presidency of the state
agricultural college has taken excep-
lions to the judgment of the states le-
gal department in the decision to the
effect that old school books cannot be
exchanged.
The attorney generals opinion is by
Mr.. Dyer declared to be wrong and IN
just in that it will cost the state many
thousand dollars because the old books
cannot be exchanged. Dyer, in sense,
arraigns Mr.. GODDARD for the opinion.
and suggests that the views of the de-
partment should be changed. To this,
Judge West replied by saying:
1.-THE suggestion of Mr.. Dyer that this
version will cost the state many thous-
ands of dollars might well have been
made to the legislature but is no war
rant for me to add new provisions to a
law already enacted. Had the legisla-
ture intended an exchange under the act
of 1899 It would have been an easy mat
ter to say so and it's utter silence on
this point is the obstacle which Mr..
Dyer must surmOunt in order to get his
views enforced in court. Very likely
when he tests the point, he will be call
ed upon to show what provision of the
act requires an exchange. and, if he can
point it out he can do more than
can"
