WOMAN IN THE CASE
Benson Worried Himself Insane Over
Baseiess Charges.

6dSeicSS SndFSSS.
Kok6mo, Ind, May 21.-Not until the
funeral party accompanying the body
of S. T. Benson, the Kokomo man who
committed suicide at independence,
Kan, arrived in this city, were any of
the particulars known concerning the
motive for the deed or the method by
which his suicide was accomplished.
There seems to be dark story back
of the suicide. Benson left a note to
his wife, stating that conspiracy was
on to blackmail him, threatening him
with disgrace and charging him with
a criminal act of which he was entire
1y innocent. He said he saw no es-
cape save in self-destruction; that he
had been harrassed, threatened and
worried until he could stand it no long
er, and that he had determined to end
it all by taking his life. Investigation
of the suicide made by lodge friends
in Independence disclosed the fact that
he had been having trouble of the
kind indicated in the note, and that
there was a woman at the bottom of
it. 1t is said that Benson worried him
self insane under the threats that had
been made against him.

ATTENTION,
FARMERS !

Why remain in the North and stay
n doors six months in the year con-
suming what you raise during the
other six Inonths7
Go South where you can work out
doors every month in the year, and
where you are producing something
the year round. If you are a stock
raiser you know your stock are now
"eating theil heads off" AID, besides
have to be protected from the rigors

Economical stock feeding requires
he combination of both fesh-forming
and fat-ferming foods in certain pro-
ortions. Alabama AID Florida pro
duce in abundance the velvet bean

they are the cheapest and best fat
tening materials known to the world.

SEEKING PEACE
Presbyterians Hold Out Olive Brench
to Southern Brethren.


Buffalo, N. Y, May 21.-The 10th
general assembly of the Presbyterian
church in the United States Of Amer
lea, now meeting in Buffalo, will prob
ably be history-making body. The
second day of the assembly was re-
plete with indications of church I'M
ion that will greatly strengthen that
denomination. Sentiment strongly IA
vored union with the Cumberland
church. while the Presbyterian cnurcn
in the United States, another Southern
body, may come within the fold within
a year or two. The assembly of the
Cumberland church is now meeting in
Dallas, Tex, and the assembly of the
other Southern church is meeting in
Mobile, Ala.
The assembly, by an overwhelming
vote, made the report on union with
the Cumberland church a special order
for next Thursday. Subsequently the
assembly, with only one negative vote.
went on record as wiping from the
minutes of previous assemblies all as
PENSIONS and charges rejecting on the
Sul vi Tic I-ISSDy lSti-
an church in the United States, the
Southern body. In 1882 the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church
in the United States offered the olive
branch to the assembly of the Pres
byterian church in the United States
of America (Northern), by wiping
from its records harsh things it had
said about the Northern church in the
civil war days. The Northern church 8
reply contained a rider which was
more offensive in the eyes of the
Southern church than certain things to
which the Northern chruch had previ-
ously given voice. In saying that it
took back things it had previously said
about the Southern assembly, the
Northern assembly took pains to re-
mark that this action did not include
the action of former Northern assem-
blies relative to loyalty and REBEL
ion" Today's action by the Northern
assembly seeks to remove all the hard
feeling engendered in those days.

BAIT
Ed THE HOOK

On one of his fishing excursions, says
the New York Times, Grover Cleveland
came across little girl sitting beside
a stream dangling line in the water.
The child knew Mr.. Cleveland by sight,
having often seen him pass with basket
and rod and, feeling sure of his sympa-
thy in her present occupation. she look
ed up and addressed him, saying, pleas
antly: Good morning, Mr.. Cleveland,
I'm fishing
But you haven't any bait on your
hook" Mr. Cleveland remarked, call
ing attention to the omission as she
pulled the line up out of the water.
You can not catch fish without bait. "
But don't like to put the bait on the
hook" answered the little girl, depre-
catingly; 1.-The worms wriggle so. They
wort keep still while I put them on.
If you'll put the bait on for me, I'll let
you have the fish Mr.. Cleveland, if I
catch one
"Ha! hal" laughed the ex-President.
This isn't the first time I've met with
such a proposition. Give me your hook,
little politician and he proceeded tci
crafty the young angler by batting her
hook for her.
