Save II Your Paint Bills

BY using Weir's Bavarian White
Lead, the most durable and therefore
the most economical lead or paint
made. 1t has zine in it. The zine
gives the paint beautiful gloss and
prevents the lead from destroying the
LINsEED OIL WHICH is THE LIFE OF
ALL PAINT. 'EPure Lead" by itself
will eat and destroy the linseed oil,
thus causing the paint to become
porous or open and dust off. Weir $
Bavarian White Lead is better and
cheaper than mixed paints because
one-half of every gallon of mixed
paint is linseed oil for which you pay
81. 80 per gallon and get an old, stale,
unsound linseed oil. Buy fresh oil
from your dealers barrel at its true
value. 4 IL gallons linseed oil and
100 pounds of Weir's Lead will make
6 1-2 gallons best paint ready to use,
that will cost you no more than othe,
standard brands of lead and much
less than mixed paint and will last
twice as long as either. Write ID. T.

Moon and Earth.

San Francisco, Sept, 6.--Prof W.
II. Pickering Of Harvard, en- route
home from the Hawaiian Islands. is
credited with the statement thai, al.
though he had never seen the yolca-
noes Of the Hawaiian Islands previ-
Gus 10 his recent trip there, he recog
nized In them familiar friends. He
says be met their ancestors through
telescope and that they are similar
TO those Of the moon, that is, those
Of the engulfed variety.
Prof Pickering advances the theo.
~ that the moon was originally a
part OF the earth, and was thrown
Of and that the Hawaiian Islands
were ABOUT in the center Of this lu-
mar genesis.
The space that was left was the
moon. and the material thrown of
was the Pacific Ocean. The large
yolcanoes of Mauna Loa aud kilauoa
on the Island of Hawaii and Haela-
kala, on Maui were, Prof Pickering
stated, in many ways exactly like
those he had observed through tele.
scope on the moon.

HEAT RECORD SMASHED
Torrid Atmosphere Blown
Away by Cold Wave.

The seasons heat record was broken
Wednesday. The highest point reached
at the government weather station was
81 degrees between and o'clock in the
evening.
The heat was SO intense on the asphalt
pavements that they spread out like
soft dough under rolling pin wherever
the tires of a truck or loaded wagon
passed over them and the tracks of the
tires were marked with depressions half
an inch in depth. The streets were
practically deserted during the heated
part of the day and that was most of
the day, for at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing the government thermometer on top
of the Columbian building showed S8,
and it is always several degrees hotter
on the streets near the pavement than
it is on the top of the high buildings
where there is a chance at a breath of
air occasionally. With all the intense
heat, there was a great amount of hui
Nudity and as one gazed into the face
of each passing pedestrian he could see
little streams of perspiratio starting
from the forehead and trickling down
the face.
G. A Shope, who is a conductor run
ming a train across the hottest part of
the desert country of Arizona, said:
This weather is too much for me; l
am going back to Gods country, for
while the temperature some times rises
to lis in the shade out there we do not
suffer as you seem to here. There the
air is light and there is not one half
the suffering there in a season that I
have witnessed here in the last three
days. I can't move here unless I am
drenched with perspiration and the feel
ing of lassitude is so great that feel
as though / should like to lie down in
a cool spot, if 4 could find one, and
never move again.
Man and beast suffered alike, fer
aside from being the hottest day of the
year every other element in nature
seemed to combine to make life unen-
durable. Wednesday came as a climax
to nearly three weeks of tropical heat.
During these three weeks there have
been but few days when the mercury
did not mark 80 and it has juggled be-
tween that point and 95 which it has
reached on two different occasions. Dur
ing all of this heated period the hui
Nudity has been intense, the fat man
has been parboiled while the lean man
has been baked. But the glorious change
came just as Director Jennings had
said that it would. e Without a word of
warning about six O'Clock in the even
ing a gentle breeze sprang up from
some where. In a moment it was a wind
and in another moment it was
a furious gale which seemed to
come from mountain of ice and in
ten minutes the temperature fell more
than that many degrees and by nine
O'Clock coats and light wraps We're in
demand. This state of affairs kept up
throughout the night and more bed
clothing was necessary before morning.
We are promised cooler weather in the
future One of the marvellous features
of the overheated period is the fact
that there has not been a single prostra-
ton from the heat.
While the government thermometer
registered only 81 on Wednesday those
at the surface made from 102 to 105.

WEAR TAGS FOR THE TRIP.
Boy and Sister Labeled So They Won't
Get Lost.

Pittsburg. Pa, Aug. IA proud
10-year-old boy boarded the Pennsyl-
vania train at the Allegheny depot for
Mount Clemens. He was Leland Mil
Ter, of California avenue, and his
mother was sending him and his g.
year-old sister to visit their grand
father, who has hotel at that place.
The youngster was proud of being
trusted to go on so long a trip and be-
cause of the fact that he was in a
manner in charge of his sister.
1t did not seem to worry him that
he had to pull the little girl on board
the train after him. She cried and
chung to her mother, and was still
crying as the train pulled out.
The two tots, of course, had tags
around their necks and were placed in
charge of the conductor, which in
sures their safe arrival at their desti-
nation.

Judge Cunningham was appointed as
sociate justice in January, 1901. In 1902
he was elected for a two year term,
and in 1904 he was reelected for the
six year term. His successor will there
fore have about five years to serve al
though he must be chosen at
the next election The appoint
ment of a successor will be made
by Governor Hoch. 1t will be the second
appointment which Governor Hoch has
been called upon to make. It is thought
that Judge A. W. Benson of Ottawa
has good chance to get the appoint
ment. The only thing against Benson
is that Governor Hoch has already ap-
pointed Judge Silas Porter from the
same congressional district.
Edwin w Cunningham was born in
Clarksfield, Huron county, o., in 1872
Clarksfield was a frontier town then,
and his life was that of a frontiersman-
In 1862 he enlisted in the One Hundred
and First Ohio regiment and served
two years as a private. He was the
youngest member of his company, not
being quite 20 years old. In 1864 he en-
tered the HiIlsdaIe college and was
graduated in 1866, after which he taught
two years in the schools of that place.
Directly after this he began reading
law at Urbana, Ill. He married Miss
Delby ROLAND, the daughter of a fam
lily of high standing, in 1867 at his old
home in ClarkSfeld. He moved to En-
poria, Kan, in 1869, and made that town
his home ever since. He was elected
probate judge of Lyon county in 1872
and held the office three terms. In 1896
he was the Republican candidate for
district judge of the Fifth district, but
was defeated by the majority by which
his party lost the district. Mr. Gun
bingham was admitted to the bar in
1869.
Judge Cunningham was a supporter
of the prohibitory law and member of
the State Temperance union. He was a
director in the Citizens bank in EN-
poria. He was boomer" in the
boom days. and was always on every
town committee to get things for En-
poria. He distinctly represented the
church element in Republican politics
His friends made the fight along this
line for him and with that idea.

FOR sLAsHING HER RIVAL S..
Julia Woody Is Let Off Easily by
Judge McCabe.

The case of Julia Woody, very black,
was called in the city court and quick
~. disposed of this morning. This same
Julia who domiciles in the sand hills of
North Topeka has a dusky sweetheart.
He is out of the city for time and
while away he has been keeping alive
the flame in the heart of another dusky
maiden by correspondence. The story
of his false love and the name of the
other woman in the case reached her
at the same time and she made a
journey to the home of Miss Lille
Jackson, who would steal her love
from her, and with the cunning of a
Jessie Morrison she invited her rival to
her home on the pretext of a friendly
call. But no sooner had her hated
rival stepped inside her door than she
turned the key and started in the
slaughterng business which only ended
when Miss Jackson made her getaway
through a window.
After the affray was over the room
slaughter house, for during the ARRAY
there had been carving, artistic cutting
and some beating going on. Miss
Jackson having at least partially re-
covered from the attack Judge Nc
Cabe thought that a SIS fine would
hang about right and SO it was doled
out. Miss Woody was taken to the
county Jail, where she will be at home
for the next few weeks or such a
matter.

Row of Coaches Overturned in
Front of Department Store.
Mothers We're Inside at the
Bargain Counter.
NEARLY CAUSED RIOT.
When Passing Policeman Tried
Arrange Matters.
He Fled and Left Check Man to
Fight 1t Out.

New York, Aug. 17.-When one baby
called another Dada" in front of a
Sixth avenue department store yester-
day it started such a row that there
came near being riot. While the in
fantiIe fuss was at it's height about
score of proud mothers came rushing
out of the store and that had the eff
feet of encouraging a secondary riot.
It all came about so suddenly that
Policeman Thomas, of the Probationary
Squad was taken almost off his feet.
He was on his way up Sixth avenue
from Jefferson Market police court at the
moment the row began A nice fleet of
baby coaches was at anchor in front OF
the store The respective mothers had
left their offspring in care of a regular
attendant and each had a deposit check,
or a. card of similar import, calling for
one baby and coach.
Policeman Thomas Butted In.
The mothers were on bargain bent.
There was a special sale of crockery or
diamonds or Subway franchises or what
not in the store, and they were in the
football rush. Policeman Thomas came
along and smiled down at the young
WAS doing a contortion act which IN
volved two chubby fists. a wide-open
mouth and a bouquet of pink toes.
Don't try to swallow en- said Po-
Hceman Thomas, leaning over and pat
ting the contortionist; "toes are not
good to eat.'
At that the youngster took the hint
and dropped the foot that had been so
per1IouslY near slipping down his or
her throat-Policeman Thomas was
not sure later which pronoun was the
proper one to use in this case. The
contortionist stared wildly at the po-
uceman for a moment and then gave
a lurch that shifted the anchorage of
the coach and brought one of its
chubby fists in reach of the next-door
baby'S eQuipage. He grabbed the side
of the coach and gurgled Dada" glee-
fully, Whereat the next-door baby got
SO scared that he or she-again Police
man Thomas was in doubt-tried to
jump out of his or her coach.
Over Go the Baby Coaches.
The plunge upset the coach. On the
way over it hit another coach, upset
ting it also. At that the line toppled
over like tenpins. In about five seconds
Policeman Thomas saw something like
q dozen bowling youngsters SPRAYING
on the pavement about him and got
scared. He and the attendant of the
store hurriedly righted the coaches and
put the bowling, squirming flock back
in them the best they could.
But they got the babies and coaches
mothers came trooping out of the
store. Policeman Thomas fed, leaving
the attendant who had given out the
baby checks to stay and face the
storm. Maternal fists shook in front
of his nose until at last an inventory
was taken and the babies restored to
their proper equipages.
