CITIZENS ARE TAKING PART
In the Anti-SaIOOn League agitation
in Oklahoma.

Guthrie, o. T.. Jan. AT Hennessey,
where there is a good deal of interest in
the anti-saloon leagues work, the gen
eral public is taking a hand. R. H. Ad-
ans, a citizen. writes the following COM
munication to the Kicker:
III. L. Swan, territorial organizer of
the anti-saloon league and supporter of
the joint and bootlegging society, has in
formed his congregation that all persons
names appearing on liquor licenses would
be published in order that all might know
just who the supporters of the liquor
traffic are. Then l am one that will ap-
pear on the list. There are but few in
Hennessey that know who I am, so 1
will tell you that l am a common every
day Kansas prohibitionist If liquor
comes in my road 1 will see that it goes
no further. l am informed of a remedy
that will end the manufacture of liquor,
but am not in favor of exchanging a
licensed saloon for secretive joints or to
make saloons out of your drug stores.

is NOT THE MOTHER COUNTRY
England Isn't, Because Chic2gO's
BOARD of Education SAYS so.

Chicago, Jan. 4.-HiStorieS of England,
furnished as supplementary reading to
the Seventh and Eighth grades in Chi
cago public schools. were thrown out by
the school management committee of the
board of education today and district
superintendent ordered TO recommend
other books on England's history which
would not contain any reference to Eng
land as the mother country" When
the matter came in a motion TO adopt
the books for supplementary reading,
Trustee Keapting, who is president Of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians, said:
Every book in this list is good with the
exception of the histories of England. I
think it is time the schools of Chicago
should have histories which show the
rapacity and tyranny of England in
their true light. The history of England
is worth studying but our children do
not want to be reminded that England
is the only country on the globe. What
We want in the school is a history of
England which is liberal enough to allow
credit to other countries"

"ME AND DE WOLF HOPPER"
Tod SlOan's Extra Coin Goes Into
theatrical Enterprises

Chicago, Jan Tod Sloan arrived in
Chicago today in company with Skeets
Martin and J. De Mum Smith, the St.
Louis billiard player Sloan will visit his
foster parents at Kokomo, Ind, and leave
for California early next week with Mar
tin, where they will remain month in
attendance at the coast races. Sloan
says he has contracted TO ride again for
Lord Beresford and that the Prince of
Wales has second call upon his services.
Sloan does not think he will lever again
ride in America. He considered Lord
Beresford the greatest man in the world,
both in his judgment of thoroughbreds
and in his manner of handling them. ''I
am going back to England the first of
March" said Sloan. Il have interests
there besides racing I am interested in
the Shaftesbury theatre of London and
DeWolf Hopper is with me in the enter
prise. He is a hit with the English and
we expect big run when he starts in
business. That will be only on the side
with me, however. I cannot expect to
ride always and want something to turn
my attention to when 1 quit the turf. I
think good boy from this country can
show them the road for long time to
come"

Kenosha, Wis, Jan. 4.-Much excite
ment was created in Kenosha this morn
ing when it was announced that Sister
Augusta, one of the Episcopal sisterhood
of St, Mary, in charge of the home for

chapel. She attended the services during
Monday evening and on Tuesday. On
Tuesday afternoon she attended spe-
cial service and knelt for a long time be-
fore the altar. At the close of the service
she went to the community room over the
cloisters and started to read. Later she
took off her veil and went to her room
This was the last seen of her. A mes
sage was sent to the Henderson family III

ceiyed that she had not been heard from

The case is said to be Que to eating the
flesh OF animals which have died from

doubt that a species of plague exists in
which most cases prove fatal, it is said
that the carries off its victims within IS
hours from its attack and in the country
towns medical aid or supplies are not TO
be had readily, and then only in a limited
way Not only this put burial Of the
corpses Of those who have died from this
disease is carelessly conducted and abso-
lutely no precautions are taken. Natives

The Public Demands Realism Even

Embraces and kisses are rehearsed

must look sufficiently fervid. 1t is a

Shakespeare has written for his 'Ro-

clumsiness. Romeo is not permitted to
decide whether to throw both arms
around his sweetheart or only one or
which, nor may Juliet be shy or for
ward, yielding or resisting, as she
chooses. The director will place their
arms for them if they do not them
selves make a picturesque exhibit of
tenderness.
"And the kiss? Shall it be delivered
by the wooer on the lips of the won
or on the brow or cheek? That ques-
tion is considered and settled. Are
kisses on the stage genuine? Well, not
at rchcarsals, except, maybe, once or
twice. in order to show the effect fully.
An actress would resent n real kiss at

What Tealu Selected.

Thomas Edison used to have Nikola
Tesla working for him in his studio
near Paris. Tesla came to him one
day asking for work, and Edison. who
needed !clp. referred him to the fore
man, naE.h Fulton. The latter took
the young foreigner on condition that
he would work. This Tesla did. For
three days and nights he never closed
his eyes. AT the end Of the first fort
night he had not had 4S hours sleep all
together. and Fulton. the foreman
made him take a rest. He also said to
the young man that on account of the
strain they had both been under they
had better have Il good meal
Accordingly the foreman and the
student went to well known cafe
on one of the boulevards and got one
of the biggest and thickcst steaks pos
sible. 1t was whopper and seemed
to be overwhelming for two. Besides
the furnishings were liberal. and there
was enough good wine. Between them
however they managed to make cv
crything disappear. and then Fulton
turning to Tesla. asked him II there
was anything else he would like
You're out with me. you know. an;

Tesla looked vaguely around for Il

COnsumDtiOn,

Pulmonary tuberculosis Is not con-
tagious, but only communicable dis
ease. The contact per Sc Of the con-
sumptive individual does not convey
the disease 1t is now we'll known that
1t is mainly the tuberculosis cxpectora-
ton, which, when dried and pulverized
to dust, constitutes the main danger of
Infection. The means to prevent infec-
ton from tuberculosis eXpectoration or
salivn-eXpcctorating only in proper
vessels, spittoons and pocket TASKS,
proper use Of handkerchicfs during
coughing, etc.-are now also universal
ly taught.
1t is absolutely demonstrated that a
tuberculosis patient, if he takes proper
care Of his cXpectoration, does not con-
stitutc any danger to his fellow men.
In sanatoria and hospitals exclusively
devoted to the care Of consumptives it
Is of the rarest occurrence for an at
tendant to contract the disease, the
hygienic precautions being so thor
ough. 1t may indeed be said that in
these houses for consumptives one is
less liable to contract consumption than
outside Of them.-Dr. S. A. Knopf in
Forum.
