When the hand touches anything, It

resentation of that part which came in
contact with the object. This impress

from the skin. II you place the palm
of your hand fiat on sheet Of blank
paper, you may not see the faintest
trace Of the hand, and many people
will be angry at the suggestion that
there Is any exudation-thcir hands are

GAMBLING BYcoNeRessMEN
Very Little Now Compared with
Olden Times.

Oldcn Times.
As a matter Of fact. there is little
or no gambling now in the capitol com.
pared with the conditions of years ago.
There used 10 be a time when certain
committee rooms were the rendezvous
for poker players. and the games were
generally without limit.
Many senators and representatives
do not object TO little game now, but
they play IN the evening and not ut the
capitol. There were poker stories ga
lore around the capitol in the olden
days. one incident became classic.
There was a party IN the room OF u
southern congressman, and the game
ran high. A western member opened
n jack pot, and the Southcrner, who
was upon his LETT. came In, together
with two other congressman. The west
erner stood pat. whercupon the south
erner discarded two cards. The bet
ting began and soon became so swift
that only the southcrNcr and the west
erner remained. Finally the latter
called his colleague, and the hands
were shown.
The westerner had opened the pot on
four kings. AS soon ms he stood pat
the southcrner broke pair of skies
and held the four, five and six Of
spades In his hand, hoping against hope
TO make a spade flush. He was dealt
the seven and eight Of spades, making
straight flush.
The western member didn't say n
word when he learned what had hap
penel. but Il was noticeable that he
didn't touch a card again during that
session. Washington Post.

LET'S THE WATER CONTRACT

Some time ago LaHarpe voted Sl4, =
900 bonds for the construction of u
municipal water plant and last night
she opened the bids called for and let
the contract to the lowest bidder, w.
w. Cook, of Junction City, the same
man who built the lola plant. The X.
G. Plumbing Co. and w. II. Root, OF
lola, bid on the work, but put their
figures on rock excavating little high
and lost by S2l. Mr.. Cooks bid was
about $12, 500
The plant contemplated is an S-inch
main a little over a mile long, tapping
a damned pond in Elm Creek south of
town. A pumping plant will force the
water up town and into steel tank
on a steel tower right in town. Pres
sure in the city mains will be secured
from this tower and it is believed there
will be general demand for city
water as most Of the population have
to depend on cisterns for their water
supply. Furthermore the city will Sc.
cure fire protection which is very i'm
portant as the frame buildings would
burn like tinder If a fire should get
started in high wind. 1t is believed
the bond fund will lay the feed pipe
and that no trouble will be found in
getting time warrants carried sufficient
to build the tower estimated at $3, 500
This spring the town gets new assess.

property and each will show great

District court is doing some un-

taking some cases Off the docket that
have been carried along for years.
In the suit OF J.:B. Charles VS. N.

pointed were allowed to report. The
land is ordered sold and the proceeds
brought into court Plaintiff is to
pay half, L. A. Barber fourth and
Mrs. Fisher a fourth ot.the costs.

The suit of Jas. .IHarclerode VS. J. T.
Harclerode ended much the same way
The commissioners withdrew the old
report, filed a new one. 1t was ac-
cepted. They report partition of the
land impracticable. Plaintiff elects to
buy property at appraisedIvalue. Tn
less others object he! may do so. If
any others wish to bid it.in the land is
to be sold in regular way and proceeds
brought into court.
The suit of A. f. Craig against the
M. f. church was continued.
The suit of Jas. Davenport VS. lola
Cement Co. was continued, the service
being set aside.
This afternoon the old league case
OF Geo. A. Fry.vs Alvin Boman was
called. Boman has lived on the farm
in Elm township 1S years. He took
it as M. K. & T. league land. When
ordered off he tried to homestead
repeatedly, and his sons leased
the land. Geo. A. Fry claims
title and the case has been through
all the courts. Fry thought his title
made good by the Federal court and
got Boman to sign papers withdraw
ing claim. Now new ruling seems
to have bobbed up and the case is
again being threshed out.

ANOTHER SNOW SLIDE,
Seven Men Believed TO be Buried Near
Telluride.

Telluride. Col, March "a rescue
party has been organized here TO at
tempt to go TO Ingram basin, where
seven men were known to be working
when the storm cut off all communica-
tion. Ingram basin is one of the
most dangerous places in winter in
the San Juan country. 1t is above
timber line and the peaks are high
and precipitous, while the valley is
narrow. Many believe that all the
men have perished in slide or that
while they were at work in the tunnel
their bunkhouse, filed with provis-
ions, has been buried beneath tons OF
snow and ice. With their snow shoes
lost it would be impossible for them
to get down, as the snow is from six
to eight feet deep. If this is the case
then they are perishing for lack oi
food and shelter.
The body of John r. Powell, who
died in the slide last Friday, has beer
found. Parties of men are at work
