d. K. Vowel has worms,

d. K. Yowell has worms,
worms to spare, by the peck or
car load. He sowed a field of
oat stubble to grass and did not
get good set. Sunday while
looking at the grass from his
horse he noticed the entire sur
face of the ground working. He
got down and to his surprise
found an untold quantity OF
worms working in the surface
of the earth. They were brown
almost black in color, from one
eighth to three. eighths of an
inch long, small in circnmfer-
ence and would average six to
the square inch of earth. He
sent sample of them to the
worm ologist at Columbia, Mo-,
Monday.

TEXAS FLOOD.

The reports from the food at
Austin, Texas, grows more hor-
rible. The breaking of the
great dam is compared with the
Johnstown flood. Fifty lives
are known to have been lost.
The fine electric light plant and
fire department were destroyed.
The city is in darkness and
though there is a raging flood
at it's feet it is without water or
fire protection. The financial
loss will exceed three million
of dollars. Taken all in all 1t
is more disastrous than the
flood of one year ago.

all expenses for everything.
They draw on the people just
as corporation does on a sink
ing with this difference, the
corporation creates it's own
sinking fund and the trusts use
the people as one.

A LOVING WORD.

II had rather have a loving
word said about me behind my
back than any other gift or fav-
or on EARTH" said a woman
whose pathway in life had been
made difficult by a cruel SANDER
which had its origin in the
thoughtless criticism of a
friend. The careless speech,
having unusual power, as COM
ing from such a source, had
been repeated and garbled un.
til it assumed a form which the
speaker never intended. IF
you can say nothing good of an
other, keep silence" is a gold
en- adage. Another as excellent
is: IF you say a good word
for another, say it" generously,
freely. A genial influence fol-
lows the mao or woman of kind
and prudent speech; and a very
uncertain one follows the ma
llcious or careless talkcr.-

BECKHAM IS A GOVERNOR.
Frankfort, KY, April g.
The court of appeals today
handed down a decision in the
governorship case in favor of
the Democrats. The opinion is
by six judges-four Democrats
and two Republicans. One Re-
publican, Druelle, dissented.
The opinion holds that the ac-
ton of the legislature in seating
Beckham is final and the courts
have no power to review it;
that Governor Taylor exceeded
his authority in adjourning the
legislature to London and that
the journals of the two houses
of the legislature, being regular
can not be impeached. The Re-
publicans will now try to get a
hearing before the United States
supreme court. Thirty days
must elapse before the mandate
of the court of appeals, in ac-
cordance with today's decision
will be issued.
