1--WE must hurry, or we won't get a
chance at the nuts. The Ninth grade
boys are going over to the grove in
body, and if they get there first
we might as we'll stay away" This
from George Brandon, VINO was get.
ting over the ground as fast as her
short legs would carry him, while his
cousin kept pace with him without
any effort.
AS they swung along the street in
the outskirts of the village, talking of
the days promise of a good time, and
wondering if the Ninth grade boys
had started yet, they came to a sud
den halt. They were opposite queer
little house, old and weather-beat-
en-; windows placed irregularly for
convenience rather than outside ap-
pearance; wooden eavestrough; a
lean-to and scraggy grape vine clam
bering up towards the roof; a tangled
mass of weeds and flowers that had
escaped the early frost grew along
the fence.
AS the boys came opposite win
dow was hastily thrown up, a mans
head and shoulders were pushed out,
and voice called out:
Halo! Say, you young fellows,
are you going to the village?"
mol" replied George, moving for
ward. But Jack said:
Hold on; let's see what's wanted
1--WE haven't time!" persisted
George.
We'll take time!" Turning to the
man, he said: Can we do anything
for you, sir?"
well, I'm that stiff with rheuma-
tics that 1 couldn't hobble to the vii
lage and back in half a day. Miss
Green wants her shoes for Sunday,
and I've run out O. thread and can't
finish them no how, 'thout I get some.
1 thought mebbe you'd just as soon
get me some; boys like to run about.
My! 1 wish 1 was a boy!"
George demurred, and explained
that they were in haste, and were not
going to the business street of the
town, and, anyway, did not expect to
return before two o'clock. 1--WE could
bring the thread then, if that would
do" he said.
The old man shook his head.
There wouldn't be time to finish the
work after that, and Miss Green,
she don't like to be kept waiting. Be
sides, promised her, and 1 never
broke promise yet" and the old
voice faltered as the head drew back;
he was about to shut the window,
when Jack spoke up:
"I1l do the errand, sir, if you'll tell
me just what you want and where to
get it."
The old face frightened. BLESS
you. You'll save an old mans repu-
tation for keeping his word, and Miss
Green yon't be kept from church to-
morrow"
In spite of his cousins protest, Jack
waited for his orders, and cheerfully
undertook one or two additional com
missions. 1t is true that he was late
at the grove and the Ninth Grade
had been before him, so that the nuts
were scarce, and George, with his own
bag full, said, tauntingly:
eff you hadn't been such a greeny
as to turn an errand boy for old Snitz
you might have had as many. You
got nothing for it, and lost your
chance here"
"You are mistaken; 1 did get some
thing"
you did! What?"
Thanks, and a promise to do me a
good turn" returned Jack, quietly.
THAT was good pay! Likely you'll
get into the Presidents cabinet on the
strength of his influence" exclaimed
George, ironically.

A few days ago Jack Brandon was
admitted to the bar, taken into part
nership with Judge Cary. Looking
over some old papers, in view of the
new arrangement, the Judge came
across one over which he smiled, then
handed it over to his new partner, say
ing:
Il think 1 never showed you this.
Perhaps it may interest you"
Jack read it with a puzzled express
sion, then, as light broke, he said,
with feeling:

Comfort can be enjoyed only by
those whose money affairs cause no
worry To be comfortably rich" is
an ideal condition, enjoyed by few,
and yet within the reach of all. A
steady income from money invested
in safe securities is a source of COM
fort and pleasure. When that income
is sufficient to live on, the possessor
is as rich as any one can possibly
be- There is no need then to work
or worry and there is time for the
higher aims and pleasures of life.
Happily, too, such investments are in
the long run more profitable than
speculations. Our first mortgage Sc
curities, netting per cent per an
mum, are the safest and best paying
investments in the world. The inves-
tor holds the security and we do the
work. McGurrin & Co., investment

Dear Aunt Busy.-I said would tell
YOU about Brownie, but if l told you
all l have to tell about him, 1 would
have very little space left for that
guess, SO l viii have to wait until 1
see you this summer when go to
Salt Lake, and tell you many things
about him. Now, about your age. The
Ogden boys ought to know, as they saw
you, at least some of them did, that
evening you got to laughing, and
shocked that old lady, and l don't be-
neve you are old like you say you are.
III say you are "a, and if the picture
you sent through the paper last year
was a recent one, L know 1 am nearly
right.

WALTER COUGHLIN.
Aunt Busy is glad indeed that the
dear Park City nephew does not forget
her Oh, about her agei Dear fellow,
she is not a. The poor old soul! The
Ogden boys are really too polite to
guess Aunt Busy's age. They are kind
hearted little fellows, and they do not
want Aunt Busy to find out that she
looks as old as she is. Love to Brownie
and bushels to yourself, Walter.

KANSAS FERTILIZER LAW.
Agricultural Department Is Taking
Preparations to Enforce It.

The big Missouri and Kansas
companies which have been manu-
featuring and selling fertilizer to
the Kansas farmers will hereafter
be under the control of the state
board of agriculture and cannot
transact business in this state until
they pay a license fee of $25 and
comply with law enacted by the
last Legislature. twas not gener-
ally known that the law enacted
last winter required the board to
assume the responsibility of it's en-
forcement, but the author of the
law evidently thought THE board
would be ia better position to pro-
tect the farmers than any other. A
failure to comply with the law is
punishable by fine of from 5000 to
$500.
The law has been in effect for
nearly two months and the manu-
facturers have failed to comply
with it. One of it's provisions re-
quires the manufacturer to print
on the outside of each package of
fertilizer the name of the firm max.
ing it, the trade mark under which
it is sold and the formula for it's
manufacture. Samples of all of the
fertilizer must be submitted to the
board of agriculture before it is
placed on the market. The follow
ing are two of the important Sec
tons of the law:
Section 1. Any person or compa-
ny who shall offer, sell or expose
for sale in this state any CONNER
cial fertilizer shall affix to every
package, in conspicuous place on
the outside thereof, a printed certi-
ficate stating the number of pounds
in the package sold or offered for
sale, the name of the trade mark
under which the article is sold, the
name of the manufacturer and the
place of manufacturer, and chem
ical analysis stating the percentage
of nitrogen, or it's equivalent in
ammonia, in an available form, of
potash soluble in water, and of
phosphoric acid in an available
form Soluble or reverted), as we'll
as the total phosphoric acid.
Sec. 2. Before any commercial
fertilizer is sold or offered for sale,
the manufacturer, importer or par.
ty who causes it to be sold or offer
ed for sale within the state of Kan
sas shah file with the secretary of
the state board of agriculture GER
titled copy of the certificate refer
red to in section l of this act, and
shall deposit with said secretary
sealed glass jar containing not less
than one pound of the fertilizer, &C.
companied with an affidavit that il
is fair average sample.

Cleveland, Ohio. August 1s.-A mysteri- ous shooting which has plotted out two lives occurred in the southern portion of the city at late hour tonight Shortly after 10 o'clock a patrolman walking on Broadway heard two revolver shots in the direction of Ashbel street, following ths sound he stumbled over the body of well dressed man about twenty four years old with a revolver lying near him. Close by lay the body of an attractive apparently young woman. Both were dead The woman was shot through the right temple, the man with a bullet hole behind the left ear.
 No enc in the neighborhood knew either of the dead people, The police incline to the theory that 1t was a case of murder and suicide Up to a late hour the bodi.s lad net been identified.

N0AKES CROSS QUESTIONED
Tells a Conflicting Story of Statement Made at DanVille, lll.-Taylor's Pri- vate Secretary Says He
 Saw Youtsey Armed.

Georgetown. Ky, August 1s. Caleb his own defense this morning on the con- vening of court at 9 o'clock. He drifted into argument in his answers, as on yes- terday forenoon, and was reprimanded by the court for doing so. He continued in his denial of all discriminating converse tions told by the commonwealth witnesses, and adhered closely to the story he first told three years ago. He denied that he ever suggested to Frank Cecil that he (CeciD secure some one to Kill Goebel or that he ever introduced Cecil to Taylor for any such purpose. He denied that at the time he left Frankfort on the moln- ing of the shooting, he knew that Goebel was to be assassinated. He said he never conlpired with any one to kill Goebci.
 Noakes Examined.
 The direct and cross examination of Caleb Powers, on the stnnd in hts avn defense, was concluded this afternoon and the defense had an inning with Robert Noakes, the comonwealth witness of yes- terday. They called him for the p'rp1se of laying the foundation for contradicti )n.
 
 by him at Danville, H., on December 19, 1900, to Max Lewis of Louisville, and Att torney W. R. Jewell of that place. In that statement Noakes charged Attorney Campbell with trying to secure him to swear falsely to secure the conviction of Jim Howard and Finley and Powers and told him of buying witnesses. He made the statement but said that after making it, he told Lewis and Jewell that he re- fused to swear to 1t, or ever to sign it.
 He explained his peculiar conduct by saving that at the time he made the statement he was willing to help Caleb Powers out of his trouble for he, Noakes, was preparing to go to Breathitt to stay for good. The defense produced. and had Noalees identify, letters which he had written Powers, soliciting him to send some one to Danville, Ills, to get the statement referred to above.
 Sticks to His Story.
 The cross examination of Powers today developed little that was new. He ad- hered to his story told on direct exami nation pretty we'll He admitted bringing several companies of soldiers in citizens clothes to Frankfort with the mountain army on January 20, 1900, but said he had beforehand had an understanding with Governor Taylor that If the legislature did not heed the petitioners, he would then call the militia into service and he (Powers) wanted to have the militia on hand
 Mckenzie Todd of Frankfort, private secretary to Governor Taylor testified to- day. He told of seeing Youtsey about the legislative department and the pri- vate office of Caleb Powers a few days before the shooting, armed with a gun and looking at the windows. Youtsey admitted this while on the stand.
 Former United States Senator w. J. Deboe of Marion is to testify for the de- fense.
