FEAR HE MAJ 81 RESCUED
Great PrecautiOn WIZ be Taken in
Removing Eackett.

For fear that an attempt VIII be made
to rescue "BII" Tackett by some Of his
pals, Sheriff Simmons stated yesterday
that he win not announce the day on
which the notorious outlaw viii be trans
ferred to the state penitendary.
Tackett at present is confined in the
rotary. from which he made his escape
two years ago. He is now being mora
closely watched, however and a special
guard closely examines the bars and sees
that all is well every half hour
Tackett frankly acknowledged yester-
day that he VIII utilize the first opp0r-
tunity TO escape that presents itself
Word was received from Kansas city
by Sheriff simmons that the equally no
torious pal of Taclett Sol Temple, has
been arrested In that city. Temple for
some months has been going about with
price set on his head Of $500 dead or
alive
When arrested he was leisurely driv-
ing team attached TO a covered wagon
into the city and with him was woman
said to be his daughter.
The Kansas City authorities are conf
dent that he is the man wanted and they
win lay claim to the reward offered by
the sheriff Of Woodward. O. r.
The names of Tackett and Temple are
synonymous In southwest Kansas and
Oklahoma Territory for outawry. Most
Of their lives have been spent behind
prison bars or in evadiug officers sent to
arrest them.
The days of Tackett. however. are num-
bered. He is fast ging into consumption
and VIII never live to serve the ten years
sentence imposed upon him by Judge
Dale last Monday.

I
Wichita PreDareS to Welcome
the New Century
ON NEW YEARS. NIGHT
viii be a Scene of Gayety
and Notification.

If the plans which are now being form
ed are carried out, Wichita viii see one
Of The grandest times in her history on
the night Of New Years DAY. It viii
be Wichitars welcome to new century
and the entire city VIII be lighted up
and the thousands Of people who are
interested in the welfare OF their home
town viii be out to attend.
The plan is for fete. a New Years
fete and from indications no plan for a
demonstration win prove as popular as
this one.
The idea is now in Kansas. It IS new
IN Wichita. but with Mr. George Berg-
man at The head of it the fete is bound
TO be a splendid success.
Illumination viii be the chief feature.
Wichita people are familiar with the
common plans Of illumination, but it is
proposed to have something entirely dif-
ferent to show on New Years night
Tt is proposed to illuminate the tower
Of the city building. To light the streets
and to have a monster parade. The idea
to make It ridiculous has also been sug-
gested and for these people q big parade
has been suggested. Search lights could
be used on that night and it would give
the city a brillanCy that would not soon
be forgotten.
There are a number Of steam whistles
in the city and on New Years night at
the midnight hour, these could 5e turned
lose TO welcome the new century.
Suu another idea has beeen originated
an dthat is to have red lights burning
over the city for half an hour nears4he
p o'clock period. This would give a
splendid effect and would make a display
that the city has not seen
Mr.. Bergman in talking to a reporter
for the Eagle about the matter said:
The project is entirely new Such a
thing has never been agitated ia the
west and as Wichita is taking the lead,
there is no reason why we can not get
to the front. New Years in Wichita this
year should be a splendid affair We
should welcome the new century and in
addition to the things which have been
mentioned. people can illuminate the up
per stories of their business house and
this would add largely to the effect
"Of course the thing is new here and
it takes time to work the matter up but
from the Indications, T am confident that
we VIII give the people Of Wichita
splendid thing.
THE chances are that the EIks lodge
who IS always to the front in every thing
win take hold Of the matter and viii as
sist in bringing the thing to a focus. If
they do this it viii mean that Wichita
win out do any city In the west in the
manner in which the new century IS
welcomed"

when Warden Tomlinson was IN the
city yesterday he was asked a number
Of times by people who were interested
about sam smith, who was confined in
The county Jail for q number Of months
In reply 10 a question asked by q report
er for the Eagle, Mr.. Tomlinson said:
smith is dead with a shot through
his back and another through his head,
he lived for some hours. but finally ex-
erred Smith was one Of the most desper-
ate criminals that we had in the peniten-
tiary. He was considered among the
convicts as being the best gun man
there And there IS one thing certain
he knew how 70 use a gun
while smith was IN the penitenuary
he had no marks against his department
He knew perhaps that 4 he acted up IN
any way we would watch him more
closely, and that was what he did rot
want
More than one officer in southern
Kansas and Okiahoma breathed more
freely when they knew that sam Smith
was dead. I have had a number Of LET

Crop Rotation In palouse.

In recent interview with Spokane
newspaper man T.. A. Mcdonald. state
dairy and food commissioner discussed
matters of interest to the Palonse sec
tion and placed himself on record as
strongly in favor of the system Of rota-
ton crops, which practically necessiLa-
ties the raising of cattle for the DISPOSE
ton of the fodder crop grown alternately
with the wheat. Touching upon the
dairy industry in this connection lie said {:
1.-The PaEouse country is undoubtedly
not SO good for dairying as the kittitas
and Yakima valleys, and the region
west of the Cascades, as these sections
have a longer time for grazing and a
greater rainfall. The difficulty with the
Palouse is that it is not natural grass
country. 80 that instead Of feeding the
COWS timothy, clover and alfalfa, they
have wheat and oat straw. Nevertheless
the only salvation of the ralouse coun-
try is diversified farming. The question
is far more serious than many of the
farmers realize, as they will find TO their
cost before many years unless they stop
the impoverishment of the soil by con
tinual wheat crops. By judicious 70,
tation OF crops the fertility can not only
be kept up, but increased; but as it is
now the farmers are planting wheat year
after year until very soon the grain will
be found to be deteriorating and the soil
will eventually give out altogether.
"Some most successful and import
ant experiments have been made for
some years with Russian forage grass
(Bromus InermusI by Mr.. Amos of Col
fax. and these experiments have demon
strated that the new grass can be used
with the greatest success for this pur-
pose, and also that it will grow with lit
tie moisture and on places where wheat
will not, such as the scab lands of the
Palouse, large areas of which can thus
be made Of use.
Thus believe that dairy farming can
be successfully combined with wheat
farming by practical farmers ali through
the Palouse, and that it will improve the
country and establish feeling OF greater
security among the farmers and the
merchants"

THE MODERN woMAN's OPPORTUNITY.

At the present day there is no need for
any woman in this country to be weighed
down and overburdened with physical
weakness or disease. A woman suffering
from any delicate ailment peculiar to her
sex, no matter what the circumstances may
be, may obtain such eminent professional
advice and assistance as a queen could
hardly command generation ago. She
can have all the advantages of that splendid
American Institution, the Worlds Dispen-
sary Medical Association of Buffalo, n. Y,
with its staff of nearly twenty eminent
specialists in the different branches of
medical practice. At their head as chief
consulting physician is DR.. K. V. Pierce,
one of the most widely experienced ply
scians living. Any woman consulting him
by mail and giving a careful statement of
her case will receive sound professional
advice and suggestion for home-treatment
free of charge
1t is impossible to estimate the immense
amount of suffering that weak and ailing
women have been saved by DR.. Pierce's
suggestions for home-treatment and the
use of his matchless prescriptions His
Favortte Prescription - has done more to
promote the health and strength of women
Of Our land than all other remedies COM
bf1ed. 1t is recognized throughout the
world as the one greatest supportive tonic
and special strengthened that has ever been
QeVlSeu tO1 women.
1t gives healing and power and endur-
ance to the delicate special organism of
women; imparts natural vitality and vigor
to their entire nerve structure. 1t banishes
abnormal and irregular conditions stops
unnatural drains; creates healthful capacity
and stamina.
1t prepares women for motherhood, car
hes them safely and comfortably through
the ordeal; takes away all its dangers and
nearly all its pain; promotes abundant, nat
ural nourishment for the child and, through
the favorable influence upon the mother,
increases the little ones natural strength
and hardihood.
Mrs. Betsey NJ. White, of Stoneycreek, Warren
Co. N Y, in letter to DIR. Pierce says " Your
Favorite Prescription has done wonders i'll our
house. My sons wife had been for years a great
sufferer all broken down and very weak and
nervous. She was troubled with all the pains
and aches one slender could endure. She
took everything she heard Of hoping to get
help, but in vain so she tried DR.. Pierce s
Favorite Prescription and ii did wonders for
her The doctors said she could not live to have
another child as she came near dying so many
times. This spring she had nice boy weigh
ing eleven pounds; she got through before we
could get any one there. was afraid she would
not live We cried for joy when we saw how
nicely she got along. May God bless you Ton
the good you have done"

facetiously eff this sort of thing keeps on
we'll all be Anericanized "
There is something ABOUT the air of this
country which inclines our women to act
independently. A girl may try to wrap up
her womanly instincts beneath a cloak of
fashionable vanity, but the little love gods
find out the weak spots in her armor and
pelt her numerically. If she is true
American the chances are after all that
nine times in ten she will marry the man
she cares for. The vast majority of our
young women seek no greater blessing
than to be well-loved wives of strong
hearted men and mothers of healthy,
happy children,
The natural burdens of wifehood and
motherhood have been amazingly lightened
in the last thirty years. Advanced science
has found way to overcome the physical
weakness of women and make them strong
and capable of performing their wifely and
motherly duties.
