day Morning and the Funeral VIII
Occur ut Lees summit.

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 22.-The body
of James Younger, who committed
suicide here Sunday, was shipped to
Lees Summit, Mo-, at 10 o'clock Tues.
day morning, at the telegraphed re-
quest of Mrs. Ella Rollins, of Dallas,
Tex, sister of the deceased. C. Hull.
nephew of Younger, who lives in Kan.
sas, accompanied the body. No serv.
ices were held in st. Paul. Cole
Younger was not able to go with the
body for two reasons. He is con.
fined to bed by illness and the terms
of his parole do not permit him to
go outside of this state. When alive
Younger frequently expressed the
wish that his body be cremated when
he died. This plan will be carried out.
The parents Of the Youngers and
other deceased members of the fam
lily, including Bob Younger, who died
in the state penitentiary, are buried
in a cemetery near Lees Summit.
Ultimately Jim Younger's mortal re-
mains will undoubtedly rest in the
family burial lot.

Ing Him.

Knoxville, Tenn, Oct. 21.-Just as
the case of Clarence Peake, charged
with the murder of Silas Hulin at
Clinton, Tenn, was about to be called
in the supreme court here yester-
day a man entered the court room
unannounced and, addressing Chief
Justice Beard, said: II am Silas

ence Peake." Peake, who is the son
Of a prominent family, had been sem

in the penitentiary, but is now in the
insane asylum near here, a raving

other man, whose name is now I'M

on the first train and went to Colo
RADIO, from which state he came back
here to prove that he was not dead.

Want the Bible Road In Schools.

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 22.-The
question of putting the Bible back
into the public schools came up for
q short time before the afternoon
session of the Woman's Home Mis-
sionary society, which closed its ma
tional convention here yesterday.
Had it not been that the conven-
ton is quite little behind in its
work the matter would have received
much more attention than it did. AS
it was, resolutions were adopted to
use every endeavor to secure moral
instruction and the responsive read
ing of Scripture selections in our pub
lie schools.

President Roosevelt will write when
he retires from the presidency, is to
be confined to the story of the Texan
revolution. It is said that the presi-

Tex, as the guest of DR.. Alexander
Dienst, who has the largest and most
complete collection of papers and
data bearing upon the early history
Of Texas, particularly the revolu-
tionary period, in existence.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 22.-With u
shout that fairly shook the conven-
ton building the representatives Of
the 147,000 mine workers who have
been on strike since last May Off
cially declared off, at noon yester-
day, the greatest contest ever waged
between capital and labor, and placed
all the questions involved in the
struggle into the hands of the arbi-
tration commission appointed by the
president of the United States. When
the news was flashed to the towns
and villages down in the valleys and
on the mountains of the coal regions
the strike-affected inhabitants heaved
sigh of relief. Many days have
gone by since more welcome news
was received. Everywhere there
was rejoicing and in many places the
end of the strike was the signal for
impromptu town celebrations. The
anthracite coal region from its larg-
est city, Scranton, down to the lowli-
est coal patch has suffered by the
conflict, and everyone now looks for
better times. While the large army
of mine workers and their families
numbering approximately 100000
persons, are grateful that work is
to be resumed on Thursday, the strik-
ers have still to learn what their re-
ward will be. President Roosevelt
having taken prompt action in call
ing the arbitrators together for their
first meeting on Friday, the miners
hope they will know by Thanksgiv-
ing day what practical gain they
have made. The vote to resume coal
mining was a unanimous one and
was reached only after warm de-
bate. The principal objection to &C
cepting the arbitration proposition
was that no provision was contained
in the scheme to take care of those
men who would fail to get back their
old positions or would be unable to
get any work at all.

Lo.ses Through Fluctuation q, Silver.

Manila, Oct. 22.-The depreciation
in the value of silver has cost the in
sular government approximately ST.
100000 in gold, as the government is
carrying $40, 900 in silver. Further
depreciation will increase the loss.
The official rate now is $40 silver for
ST. gold. The prospective surplus
which the government planned to de-
vote to needed public improvements
has vanished and a small deficit
seems inevitable. Discomfort owing
to the fiuctuating currency is gen
eral.

Gov. Odell, of New York, has signed
. bill which provides that married
woman may work for and receive
wages in that state. About a year
ago a woman sued street railway
company ON account of injuries re-
reived. The courts decided that she
could not recover in such a case, be-
rause, according to an old law still
on the statute books, woman was
the servant of her husband and was
not entitled to her own wages.

What the irrigation act means to
the great west may be illustrated by
o single example. On one side of
fence in Arizona stand orange groves
worth $1,000 an acre. On the other
side is bare, cactus desert. Both
lands have the same soil, the same
exposure; one has water, the other
has none. Accepting Maj. Powell's
authoritative statement that there
are more than 1000. 100000 acres of
arid lands in the United States. one
can foresee the immense profits
which irrigation makes possible.

The most of the Filipino people
do not wear shoes, and the conse-
quence is their feet have soles on
them that protect them from injury
1t is not an unusual thing to find
natives with the skin on the bottom

thick. Nature makes provision in
cases of that kind, and they can
walk all day long and they are never
troubled with corns.
