CASE TURNED DOWN.
Mr.. Calderhead Selects Senator
Fulton For Chairman.

Congressman Calderhead has turned
down J. B. Case for. chairman of the Fifth
district Republican congressional commit
tee, and has selected State Senator E. r.
Fulton, of Marshall county, instead 1t is
customary for the committee to elect as
chairman the choice of the congressional
candidate.
Mr.. Case was elected two years ago on
Mr. Calderhead's request In the Dickin-
son county primaries last spring a fight
was led by S. G. Smith to depose Case
from the congressional committee, and it
was so successful that Mr. Case was
even left off his ward delegation to the
county convention, and he only went to
the congressional convention as a Specta-
tor, although chairman of the congress
sional committee.
Then Senator Burton appeared on the
scene and made a personal plea with the
Dickinson county delegation to re-elect
Case a member of the congressional
committee. After a long session he was
successful, and Smith was charged with
making a deal of some kind with Senator
Burton.
After Case won the Dickinson county
fight his friends thought there was little
doubt that he be again named as chair
man of the committee. but Congressman
Calderhead has decreed otherwise.

GRASSHOPPERS APPEAR.
Farmers Are Turning Poulty Into
the Fields to Destroy Them.

Oberlin, Kan, July 24.-Grasshoppers
are appearing in considerable numbers.
Many farmers claim that no damage
will be done and others say they will
materially injure corn. If the plan
adopted by some farmers was allowed
it would not take long to exterminate
the pests. They raise large numbers of
chickens and turkeys and turn them
into the alfalfa fields to feed on the in
sects. 1t is surprising the quantity of
'hoppers a good healthy turkey will
stow away in day. 1t is easier for the
farmers than running hopperdozer.
Instead of being dreaded and feared the
grasshopper becomes valuable asset

fowls.

turkeys and about 300 chickens have
kept my alfalfa field clean of 'hoppers

Hanged at Nome.

Nome. Sept. 10, via Seattle, Wash.
Oct. Fired Hardy. convicted of the
killing of Con and Rooney Sullivan on
Unimak island, June Z. 1901, has paid
the extreme penalty. He was hanged
at $40 this morning. The execution
took place in an addition built to the
ice house on the lot opposite the jail.
There was no hitch in the proceedings,
no bungling of the job. Hardys neck
was broken and in exactly nine min
utes and forty-eight seconds the pulse
ceased to beat and the physicians pres
ent declared life extinct. He died
without a display of cowardice, assert
ing his innocence.
The execution was under the super
vision of Deputy Marshal Estabrook
and the arrangements were complete.
Father Caraldo administrated the last
sacrament. The death warrant was
read to Hardy in his cell by Marshal
Richards and a few minutes later the
procession started for the gallows.
Hardy showed wonderful composure.
