Of the Accident by Which Mir. Bennett Lt --- His Life E-- V. :.

Of the Accident 9{ H,, Whtsh 1,ta Mr. Bennett Lost
 The following extract of a letter sent to Mrs; Philo S, Bennett at her home. 1s7 told of the manner in which Mir. Bennett and q party were touring the western coun- rty when the accident happened. The let ter was written by Dr. R.. M. Cramer, one of the members of the party, and said:
 ''The accident occurred on Sunday at noon as we started down the hill. about one. quarter of mile long. Mir. Perkins, who did the driving, and MT. Gaige.. sat on the the second seat, and MT. Whitlock on the third seat The valley was on the drivers right side, and MT. Bennett was immediate ly behind the driver" ..... .--.-.
 how the accident took place. Near the top of the hill the horses began to trot briskly, and Mir. Perkins put his full weight on the brake, which suddenly broke. The loss of and he would have fallen under the heels or the horses had not Mir. Gaige caught him and pulled him back. The horses were running, at the, top of their speed,and at a
 MT. Gaige jumped and was practically un- injured Mir. Whitlock had already climbed over the back seat and was thrown to the ground and sustained some contusions and bruises. Dr. Cramer was thrown ten feet, landing on his left side and stfiking against a log, which broke rib. .wrenched his spine and produced compound dislocation of one of his fingers. MT. Bennett had been standing, and when the wagon was overturned 1t threw him against a tree and pinned him there.

 ably the projection which has just been

 to the received explanation of similar observations made four or five times
 within the last generation. But if the Martians are really so far advanced in engineering as to be able to carry out irrigation works on the vast scale that

THE MOTHERS UNION REBELS

Emporia Women Make Rules on Vari-
 ous Subjects, Especially the Girl Wis
 itor.
 The Emporia mothers union met Sat urday and transacted some important business. It was decided that hereafter radical change will be made in enter taining girls visiting Emporia. Here tofore mothers have had to do washing and ironing not only for their own girls, but for visiting girls, and visiting girls often bring. highly ruffled petticoats which require more attention than the petticoats of the home girls. The moth CTS union decided that anything more than two gauge skirts week and pair of black stockings week will be sent to the laundry and the bill stuck in the mirror of the visiting girls room every morning till it Is paid
 f The mothers also decided that it will be considered proper for visiting girls to 'do the dishes" Heretofore, because a home girl has company, she has con- .sidered it proper to get up and entertain her company after meals, but the moth CTS union demands that the fiction that the dishes will wash themselves be abandoned. In the matter of cooking for .picnics the mothers union made this rule: All chickens bought for lunches shall be charged to the visiting girl, and if she has any new ways of making potato salad she shall put on an apron and make it herself instead of giving the mother the recipe.
 There was a long debate at the meet ing yesterday over the matter of par ties. Many mothers held that if they gave a party for the visiting girl it would enable their daughters to get into "a little better social set than otherwise, as often the visiting girl had other friends in town who were the real thing. But .the majority of the mothers held that the union should stand only for in formal parties, where the invitations are sent by telephone and the refresh ments consist of ice-cream, lemonade and cake, served on the porch. It was decided by unanimous vote to make rich cousins either pay board or bring presents for all the family. Fans don't go.-Emporia Gazette.
