Some Local Politics.

The Democrats are Slttlng up anC
noticing things a little before the
final crash. They have had two
meetings this week. One was at Her
iugton last night when special train
was run over the Rock Island. The
Abilene band went along and about
70 OF the faithful from Abilene. Solo
mon, Enterprise and Woodbine fur
nished others so that 1O4 we're aboard
when Herington was reached, thus
practically comprising the total Demo-
cratic vote OF the county. Francis
Brady Of Wayback township, Usage
county, candidate for congressman-at-
large, was the speaker. The opera
house was not we'll filed but big
dance and the storm probably helped
queer things. On Monday night G. s.
Crawford and R. H. Seeds spoke to a
small audience in Chapman.
Horticultural item from the Salina
Journal: Mr.. Seeds is running for
county attorney Of Dickinson county
on the Democratic ticket. The voters
OF Dickinson will doubtless do some
planting election day.
Salina journal: Mr.. Padilla, who
died at Herington $50 years ago, Is to
have monument. The Democratic
party hasn't been dead that long and
the Republicans tore down the free
soup houses that were its only monu-
ments and they refuse to allow them
to be rebuilt.
1t is understood that the old fake
Of county division was not worked at
the Herington meeting.
The wall about W. T. Davidson's
woe in the News, claiming that he
did not have notice Of the city con-
vention, and that 1t was announced
only in the REFLECTOR lie very touch
ing. OF course the News lied about
it. The notice was published also in
the Chronicle and in that paper Mr..
Davidson had a signed notice asking
all his friends to be present. It Is
Just Is we'll to tell the truth about
these things.

Former Audrain Resident Before
Dying Confessed Crimes Done at
Bowling Green and Hannibal.

SALT LAKE CRY, UTAn, April 22.-
Frank Rose, the wife murderer, wa,
shot to death in the yard 81 the state
penitentiary here at 1909 o'clock this
morning. Death was instantaneous,
four bullets lodging in or very cluse tC
his heart.
Rose was strapped TO the same little
wooden chair in which Peter Morten.
sen met his fate a few months ago,
Five prison guards, concealed behind
a heavy blue curtain in the doorway
of the blacksmith shop, acroSs the
area, formed the executing squad. One
OF the rifles held a blank cartridge
Rose went to his death chair with
the same GOODNESS that had marked
his conduct since be surrendered to
the police.
In a confession made TO his death
watch a few hours before the execu-
ton, Rose reeounted a number of
crimes that he committed in Missouri,
several OF which occurred in st. Louis.
Rose said that be travelled under the
following aliases Bill Sly, William
Cody, Full-Hand Jim, Tom Lang,
William Hartlgan and Bill Ross.

Home For Aged Ladies.

The Old Ladies' Home, now In pro
cess of construction at Mexico, Is the
outcome Of the strenuous efforts Of the
Kings Daughters Of that town to pro.
vide a comfortable home for aged
gentlew0men.
The organization has worked, with
the characteristic insistence Of women
embarked upon a worthy enterprise,
for a number Of years and 1t naturally
feels much gratlied at the culmIna-
tion Of its efforts. No cause could be
more holy or consecrated than the pro
vision OF such a home. Many women,
mothers, who have given their ener-
giles, unstintedly to the everydayness
OF life, find themselves bereft, robbed
OF physical strength, stricken In years
and without an abiding place. 1t is
for such that this band OF christian
women have been working. But they
still need help. Money moi effort
could not be expended upon a worthier
cause. Any one desiring any infor-
nation about the institution can adj.
