APPLES AS FOOD.
Doctors Disagree but Majority Speak
 Well of This Fruit.

well or ms Fruits
 The theory has been advanced by some learned authorities that the ap- pie is not wholesome article of food. Doubtless in individual cases this has proven to be the case. put it is hard to believe that fruit that almost every one likes. and one which can be grown freely and in practically unlimited quantities in all temperate climates, was not intended for the use of man. There are other authorities, however, who come to the rescue and so highly recommend the apple that we conclude that where doctors disagree we must depend upon our own judgn' ent and experience. To quote from we'll known American authorities, the apple is composed of vegetable fiber, albu- men, sugar acid, gum, chlorophyl, nla- lie and galic acids, lime and water. and contains as well a larger percent age of phosphorus than any other fruit or vegetable. This analysis would tn- dicate that there must be considerable food value in apples, and on account of the phosphorus they are well adapt ed for renewing the essential nervous matter There is all old Scandinavian legend to the effect that whai was represented in their traditions 3s the food for t1e gods vas =reseese9 ta by them when they felt themselves grow ing feeble and Infrm to renew their powers of mind and body.

WILL USE WICHITA LABOR
DOId Looking Around for stone
fraSOns and Brick LAYERS

Fred Dold thinks he is under obligations
to employ Wichita mechanics in the re-
building of his big packing house, be-
cause the people of this city gave the
Dolds help. He said yesterday that the
people in all the towns in Southern Kan
sas and Oklahoma traded with him, and
he would never think of combining him
self to Wichita if it were not for the fact
that he would be paying a large portion
Of Wichita money.
Superintendent Charles Darrigrand was
around yesterday locating the stone
masons in the city and he found twenty
two of them who will be offered a job
when work is commenced on the new
building. There will be no men employed
until after the election. but they will be
located. It is the intention of Fred Dold
to pursue the same policy in regard to
vorkmen in other lines. Wichita men
will be given the work are there is enough
of them to do it.
The force of men are still employed re-
moving the debris OF the burned build
ings and clearing up for the new build
ing. They are making great piles Of brick
and mortar on the grounds When the
new buildings are constructed the main
entrance TO the packing houses from the
streets will be about the center. instead
Of on the west side as now. There will
be 50 many changes that there viii be
but little to remind the people Of the old

seem to have 4 good time. There are sew
eral men handling the same line but for
different houses. These men have a
great scheme. Those OF the same line
stopping at the same hotel get together
and make out list of the business men
handling their lines, ard then each one
takes a certain part of the town and sells
all he can TO those stores IN that section.
The others do the same and the next day
they take a different route. A great

have traded with the same firm for a

MISTAKE WAS QUEER
George w. May Came Near
Losing His Farm.
HE GOT THE WRONG CARD
But Later Nord Corrects the
Error Made.

George ". May of this city viii get
his farm in the Kiowa land This was de-
cided yesterday. little later than other
fortunate ones in the Fl Reno drawing
heard the news. Mr.. May has had a live
ly time finding out whether he won or
not. He knows now for the first time
that ne did The mix up came about
through a peculiar mistake.
Mr.. Nay went to II Reno with the
expectant throng and registered. Then
he waited for the wheels to revolve.
One day the Eagle announced TO him the
glad item under 'I.awton district" No.
5.S5s. George ". May. Wichita. Kansas.
Mr.. May was also shown a similar line
in all the other papers. His friends flock
ed to him and offered their congratula-
tons and told him to put in corn and
alfalfa and turnips and other things that
happened TO come to their agricultural
minds.
But Mr. May received no card aDnounc-
ing his number. Supposedly all the win
ners had been notified. He went and took
another look at the Eagle. 1t sure had
him numbered at 5.S5S.
Then the real shock came. He got lit
tie old green card one day announcing
coldly that he had drawn number IS. 463
AS there were only 1900 farms to give
out this left him high and dry. His
friends who had been so eager to con-
graduate him began to sypathize. The
case was a mystery 70 those TO whom Mr..
May referred it. II he had not drawn No.
5.S5S how in the world was It ever an
nounced that he had drawn it? The pos
sibility of hoax was out Of the ques-
ton.
Finally Mr.. May wrote to Governor
Richards at FL Reno and the mystery
was cleared away in a letter received yes
terday. The letter read as follows:
Replying to your letter of the Bird
viii state that No IS .463 was drawn by
Arthur T. Burgess. by George W. May,
agent while No. 5.S5S was drawn by Geo.
". May OF Wichita, Kansas. If you
are the party referred to you should ap-
pear at the Lawton Office on September
% TO make your filing. Yours truly. ".
A. Richards"
In other words Mr.. May had filed for a
Spanish war veteran named Burgess. In
some way the clerks had mixed his name
with Burgess and sent him the notihca-
ton card for Burgess number. His own
card never arrived. It was probably mis-
sent.
The event IS notable, because it is so
far as known the only case Of an error
in the drawing at FL Reno yet to appear.

WORK LOCK SCHEME
Ed johnson rs swindIed Ont Of Ten
Dollars

Dollars.
Monday evening Ed Johnson landed In
| this city He is from AIvareta. O., and
! came here to get work. He had hardly
struck town when two young men came
| along and said that they had a lock game
that he could not unlock. He thought
he could ana bet ten dollars and lost it.
He had not been off the train but a few
hours and was loafng around down near
the Santa Fe roundhouse when these men
came up. The were trying hard to get
the lock open and one of them could IN
lock it some times but the other could not
get the key TO turn. They showed the
lock TO the boy and he unlocked it the
first time he tried it. This surprised the
others and they offered to bet ten dollars
he could not do it again. He tried it and
worked with the lock for an hour but
could not turn the key. He finally gave
it up and the others went off with his
ten dollars.
After the men went away he thought
that probably this was a skin game so
reported it to the police. lie was told to
look out for the men and if he found them
to have them arrested. Yesterday about
noon he was Ioaffng around the railroad
yards and saw one Of the men. He
watched him for some time and finally the
other came along and the two started off
down the tracks. The boy called officer
Bemspear and the two men were caught
and locked up. They are Claude Barnes
and Charles Brown. The were taken to
the station and locked up. Yesterday
each was fined fifteen dollars IN police
court. When captured the lock was
was found on them. It was a very pecul-
lar piece of mechanism. There were two
holes in it. One of them was the com
mon keyhole and the other was used to
put something into and prevent the key
from turning. It was a common fat
paddock. one that is seen every day in the
year and the boy thought that it would
be an easy way to earn ten dollars.
The boy is only seventeen years old and
lived on farm all his life. He came to
this city monday to see If he could get
work on a farm. He had such a good
description of the men and nearly all the
off GERS knew who the fellows were and
only waited TO see them before picking
them up. They had a very short time
to enjoy their money.
