Washington. May 9-In view of the published statement to the contrary, 1t can be said on authority that cannot be questioned that Commissioner Evans de- sire to sever his connection with the pen sion bureau was not prompted by any President or any one speaking for him.

Notorious Jim Tarney.

Under the above headline the WILLIAMS NEWS has the following to say of our Jim Tarney, who was one of the delegates to the Knights of Pythias grand lodge meeting held last week:
 "The past few years Jim's mind has been failing fast, and this trip Judge Langston was painfully forced to appoint a guardian to take care of him. Langston's action was caused by Jim not being able to take care of his baggage (his grip). and also being unable to se- cure food to sustain him along the road The K Ks are sparing no expense in bringing about his re- lief"
 All of which islander regarding Mir Tarney, we are reliably in formed, is entirely due to the envy of Knight Mauk, whose front name is George. Knight Mauk's offense is being investigated in secret ses- sion, and he will be fined about s3,OOO, unless he apologies to MT. Tarney, and also confesses where he got the fried chickenl Doubtless he imagined that by attracting at tention to a brother member his crime would not come to light. But there is no escape for the guilty Mesa Free Press.

A man recently employed at Bass camp in the Canyon took it into his head to get rich without working. He proceeded to rife the contents of a valise while the owner was absent and taking something over $100, a grip and shotgun, pro ceeded to hit the trail for town. He had about A hours start before the robbery was discovered, then MT. Bass started out on his trail. His tracks led to the railroad line and here MT. Bass waited till the train came along. which he boarded. When out about 17 miles from town a man Jagged the train and asked for water He then got on and rode into town. By this time the robbery was known to the crew and it was soon discovered that he was the man wanted. When the train arrived here an officer was sum- moned, and when the man found there was no escape, he produced S103, which he said was all he had taken. He had wearied of carry ing the gun and valise and cached them two miles from where he had Jagged the train. Upon the return of the money he was allowed to go free. Moral-Whenever you steal anything in this country it is a good idea to also steal a horse and some water to facilitate matters.

RUIN AT JOPLIN
WROUGHT BY TORNADO
Three Were Killed Eight Probably
Fatally Hurt Loss 100000

Joplin, Mo. April 26.-Today it is
known that three persons We're killed
and about thirty Injured in the tor
nado that swept through Joplin lat
yesterday. OF the injured perhaps
eight are fatally hurt. y conservative
estimate places the total loss a $100,GGG.
The casualties were caused by flying
debris or falling walls. Two OF those
killed lived on Moonstone Hill, the out
skirts of Joplin. That district was
swept by the tornado about four blocks
wide, commencing at the western linn
its of the city at Seventeenth street
and ending at Seventh street, on the
east side Of the city.
Perhaps two dozen houses in the
southern end of the city were either
wholly or partially demolished. while
in the mining district heavy loss was
caused il the wrecking of mine houses.
Scarcely a building in the course of
the storm escaped damage. About
fifty families are homeless. In the
residence district the loss was prin-
cipally among the poorer classes.
Many lost everything they owned and
are destitute. Plans to care for these
were arranged this afternoon at Il
mass meeting called by the prOclama-
ton of Mayor Trigie.
