Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1899-01-20

TIE World has never shared the Republican
opinion of Gov. Leedy He is not a bad man as
many tar away from him have been lead to be-
lieve. Gov. Leedy is an honest man and he
has given the state better administration than
several of his predecessors. If the Republicans
are going to get the idea that any old thing
will do after Leedy they will be mistaken.
Gov Leedy has been wrong in many things
but his integrity is unquestioned He has tried
his best to be good governor and he has sue
ceeded as far as his party would let him. The
World has never denied to any official the
need of credit to which he is entitled aud in
this case it feels that in the years to come
Leedy will not stand higher than others who
have gone before. The Republicans cannot
hoye to gain anything by attacking Lsedy.
They must win their own laurels and the OPP
portunity never could be more proplious. -

Curious but dangerous freaks of ma
ture frequently found In the deserts of
Arizona are called Sumideros by the
Mexicans and Indians. They are
masked pitfalls OF quicksand that oc-
cur in the dry plains and are covered
with a treaeherous crust Of clay that
has been spread over them in fine par
ticles by the wind and baked dry by
the sun. The peculiar properties of the
soil retain all the moisture drained into
them after the infrequent rains, and
allow 1t to be filtered to unknown
depths, so that man or horse or a
COW or a sheep that once steps upon
that deceptive crust instantly sinks out
of sight beyond hope of rescue. The
Sumideros are on level with the sur
face Of the desert. There is no danger
signal to mark them and their surface
can not be distinguished by the or
binary eye from the hard clay that
surrounds them. They occur most fire.
quently in the alkali-eovered flats, and
are often fifteen or twenty feet in
diameter Sometimes they are only
little pockets or wells that man can
leap across, but the longest pole has
never found their bottom. A stone
thrown through the crust sinks to I'M
known depths and no man who ever
fell into one of them was rescued.
They account for the mysterious dis
appearance of many men and cattle.

RINGS ARE ALWAYS THE SAME.


Women Wear the Same Ornaments
They Did in Biblical Days.
Although many jewelers. advertise
something new in rings" the fact re-
mains that they are but slight varia-
tions Of the styles in vogue at the time
Moses piloted the children of Israel out
of the bondage of Egypt. Rings are
alluded to in the Bible, in the books OF
Genesis and Exodus. They have been
found among the relics of prehistoric
races, the stone age, the bronze age and
sle age Of the mound builders. Hero
'sdtus mentions that the Babylonians
wore them, and from Asia they prob
ably were introduced into Greece. The
rings worn in early times were not
purely ornamental, but had their sig
nificance as signet rings. A kings
messenger delivering message and
exhibiting the kings signet as author
ity was obeyed implicitly. The Ro-
mans had marriage ring Of iron with
a jewel Of adamant, signifying eternity
and constancy. History mentions
magic ring possessed by King Solomon
of which the Jews and Mohammedans
have abundant traditions. 1t was by
means of this ring as talisman of
wisdom and power that Solomon was
enabled to perform those wonderful
acts and accomplish those vast enter
prises that have made his name so cele-
brated as the wisest monarch OF the
earth. The later Romans wore a PRE-
fusion of rings, and the more effemi-
nate had rings for summer and winter.

ORIGIN OF THE TERM cAppiE



Term by Frank Bovd.
To some, at least, OF the unnum5ered
l and innumerable host OF golfers the
question may have occurred at one
time or another-W Whence came' the
word "caddle"? Frank Boyd, in his
+, Omitted Chapters in the History of
Monifeth," which he contributes to
The Book Of Monlfeth Golf Links Ba-
gar" offers an ingenious as well as
highly amusing explanation OF the
term. There was, he says, a Culdee,
or "Keledei,7 establishment at Mont
feth at one time, till the monks OF Ar
breath dispossessed the Culdees OF
their lands and made them their serv-
ants. One day 1t occurred to monk.
while having a game OF golf. to make
the Keledei carry his clubs. He found
this contributed greatly to his comfort.
The plan was adopted by the rest of
the monks, and henceforth they never
went out without being accompanied
by their Keledei. Now you know"
continues Mr.. Boyd, that in these
parts the practice is to cut short words
in which the letter 4 Is used. A ma
tive, for instance, never says 'Balgray.
1t is always 'Baigrie.' Thus it was
natural that in the course OF time the
I should drop out OF the Keledei, and
1t should come to sound like 'caydee,
and to this day this is how the word is
pronounced by superfine Scotch youths.
In the strong Forfarshire vernaeular
it was. however, broadened out to cad
die. +" AS a matter of fact, the origin
of the term "eaddie" does not appear to
have ever been satisfactorily explained
Jameson, who defines caddie as one
who earns a livelihood by running er
rands, delivering messages, and so on.
expresses the opinion that the term
was originally the same with the
French cadet, which, as he remarks. is
sometimes used to denote young per-
son In general. Or. Murray, in his
colossal work, holds the same view,
but how the word came to be employed
to denote the lad who carries play
er's golf clubs has still to be elucidated.

POISONING FROM CANNED FOODS.

The subject of food poisoning is
discussed in the November nu,n-
Der of Appleton's Popular Scienc"
Monthly. by Prof. Victor c. Vaughan,
who declares that while in some
cases the Illness is due To metallic
poisoning, in a majority of instances
the poisonous substances are formed
by putrefactive changes. The putre-
faction sometimes begins IN the cans.
owing to imperfection in the sealing,
and sometimes diseased meat or fish
which should have been rejected il
permitted to pass into the caHs.
These dangers cannot be guarded
against by consumers, but happily
they are more remote than the dan
ger OF putrefaction after the cans are
opened, a change which can be pre-
vented by care on the part Of the con-
sumer. The fact is that the consum-
er seems to assume that canned foods
are imperishable simply because
they have been subjected to heat and
Theoretically sealed. They carefully
put fresh meats and fish into the ice
box, and leave canned fish and
meats in the outer atmosphere with
out even removing them from the
can. Prof. Vaughan says that this
is decidedly unsafe, and several ca-cs
of meat poisoning which have come
under his observation were traced to
carelessness with opened cuuned
foods.
The policy recommended by Mr..
Vaughan's observation is the prompt
removal Of canned articles to china
ware, and the keeping of the food in
II cool place. The removal from the
tin will prevent metallic poisoning
and cool atmosphere will delay
putrefactive changes, and prevent
poisoning by ptomaines. These pre-
cautions are so simple that house
holders who neglect to take them
pay the penalty OF laziness when
they incur Illness from canned foods
which have been permitted to take
their chances in open tins.

and corporations, excepting chart
table institutions. AS all of the cor
porate heirs are of this characterand
the great bulk of the estate goes to
lineal heirs it is computed that the
state tax will approximate 100000 or
100000. The federal war revenue
tax is 1926 for each 800 of requests
of over $l0O00O0 to lneal descend
ants and Sl5 to every 800 bequeathed
to strangers in blood or corpora
ton, The early estimates made by
those close to Mr. Vanderbilt, fixed
the total cost of transferring the es-
tate at about 100000. 1t seems
that that tax is likely to be exceeded
and that the war tax alone will run
about 100000. The state got about
100000 from the Gould fortune,
which escaped federal taxation, the
war revenue measure being legisla-
ton enacted subsequent to the death
of the Wall street wizard.
