KICK OF FRIENDS

Place

The Friends university faculty, stu
Gents and patrons are protesting against
the establishment of Payne's geological
garden and poultry and wild animal
farm on the Dorsey property located at
the northeast corner of the university

tail in the Eagle some days ago.

ance as viii seriously interfere with the

school has been started and the matter
will be brought before the city council

AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant,

A physician puts the query: Have you
never noticed in any large restaurant at
lunch or dinner time the large number of
hearty, vigorous old men at the tables;
men whose ages run from 60 to 50 years;
many of them bald and all perhaps gray,
! but none of them feeble or senile?
| Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
to have escaped your observation or
comment but nevertheless it is an object
! lesson which means something.
If you Will notice what these hearty
old fellows are eating you will observe
that they are not munching bran crack
| ers nor gingerly picking their way
through a menu card OF new tangled
health foods; on the contrary they seem
to prefer juicy roast OF beef, a properly
turned loin OF mutton. and even the
deadly oroiled lobster is not altogether
ignored.
The point Of all this is that vigorous
old age depends upon good digestion and
plenty Of wholesome food and not upon
dieting and an endeavor to live upon
bran crackers.
There is certain class of food cranks
who seem 10 believe that meat, coffee
and many other good rnings are rank
poisons, but these cadaverous, sickly
looking individuals are a walking cen
demnation Of their own theories.

on the santa Fe in Vice President Paul
MortOn's private car. The stops be-

very brief, and the governor refrained
from any extended addresses.
The applause was without limit, and
appeared to come from people of all
degrees Of politics. 1t was not so much
for Roosevelt as a candidate for vice
president as for Teddy the Rough
Rider" and the man.
A number of the most prominent citi-
Zens of Kansas accompanied the gov

were Governor William E Stanley,
United States Senator Lucien Baker,
Congressman Chester l. Long, Charles

Another alleged attempt at kidnap-
ing was made in the vicinity of Fourth
West and Fifth South streets about
dark Sunday evening. The attempt is
said to have been made upon little
Walter Brown. the Uncomfortable
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. D..
Brown, who live at SIS South Fourth
West
Little Walter, it appears, had, in
company with his grandmother, Mrs.
Bert, gone over to a neighbor's, and
while the grandmother went into the
house the child was left on the side
walk to play. While the two women
were sitting on the porch talking they
noticed a youth, who appeared to be
Is or II years old, come by and pick
the child up and walk down the street
with him.
Mrs. Watson called Mrs. Bert's at
tentiOn TO the incident, but the latter
supposed it was one of the boys of
the neighbOrhOod. and no more atten-
ton was paid to the matter until n
few minutes later, when their atten-
ton was attracted by screams from

from a vacant lot in the direction of
the Rio Grande depot. and when Mrs.
Bert ran toward the place she saw the
boy walking rapidly across the lot
with the child in his arms.
She called to him. but failing to get
any response, she started on the run
after him. The boy saw her coming
and dropped the child, but evidently
not fearing that he would be caught.
he continued in a rapid walk towards
the depot. There were no men in the
vicinity at the time, and the women
were too excited to try to follow him.
Mr. Brown, the father of the child,
was away from home at the time of
the occurrence, and when he returned
he made an effort to get some trace
of. the supposed kidnaper. but without
success
This is the second case of the kind
which has happened in that vicinity
lately. the former being that of little

ment prevails in the neighborhOod and

Jul " = ppO4AIA1CnI.
William H. Clark, a stock broker of
this city, who was at the Philadelphia
convention as an alternate, returned
yesterday from his trip, having visited
New York and other parts of the east
in company with others of the Utah
delegation after helping Mr.. Hanna
through with his business at the Qua
ker City.
Mr.. Clark was one of those who op-
posed the Salisbury appointment. but
he has got over that now He thinks
Orange is about the proper thing since
Mr. Hanna's committee has seen fit to
make him it, for this district. Mr.
Clark does not want to talk on his ad-
ventures at Philadelphia, showing a re-
markable antipathy for discussion
when seen by a reporter last evening.
Mr.. Clark admitted that he had come
home, but further than that he had no
personal knowledge"
1T is a strong ticket he said. final
ly, at the same time urging the reporter
not to make any sensation of his re-
marks. He added with due caution that
it was a popular ticket in the east.
When asked how the two factions
stood by this time on the appointment
and if they finally buried the Ratchet,
the alternate threw up his hands in sur
prise.
Why" said he, 1--WE had nothing to
do with it. Of course. The national
committee fixed that. But now that Mr.
Salisbury has been appointed 1 guess
it is all right. though he was not my
choice
Mr.. Clark is very glad to be home
