DEL CASSIE TO RESIGN
THE MINISTER WORRIES

proceeded to the Quai D'Orsay. where
he held an extended conference with
the minister of foreign affairs. The
president of the council, voicing the
wishes of President Loubet and the
ministers, earnestly besought NJ. Del
Case to retain his place in the cab
met.
1t is evident that NJ Rouvier's earn
est appeal caused M. Del Case to
waiver in his determination. When
the president of the council returned
from the interview, he stated to his
colleagues that he bore a favorable
impression of its results. M. Del
Case, he said, had given no final an
swer, but had promised to reserve his
determination until tomorrow, when
a final answer will be given. 1t is be
lieved that NJ. Del Case will yield to
the insistence of President Loubet
and the president of the council.

Topeka. Kan, April "a. - Another
claimant for the Fair millions appear
ed here today in the person of Frank
Smith. chief at the Santa Fe railroad
hospital. Smith says he is a brother
to Mrs. Charles Fair, who, with her
husband. was killed on August IA,
1902, in an automobile accident at
Evereaux, France. Smiths knowl-
edge of the relationship came through
reading an Associated Press dispatch

the death last Sunday at Newmarket,

MAY WHEAT DEAL OVER
SLUMP OF FIVE CENTS

titles today through at least one house
here. When the price of May wheat
fell under $1.10 commission people
poured wheat out on stop loss orders.
This caused a breath-catching slide
to $1.08B. The total sales of May
were estimated all the way from
100000 to 100000 bushels. While
the bear turn was on in May the
Armour people were supporting July
wheat against selling, caused by gen
eral rains. 1t was argued that Ar
mour's enormous buying for July was
for the Gates crowd, either covering
heavy short sales, made from $1.01
down, or possibly going long for the
Wall street dealer. At the close of
the session May jumped back to $1.10,
leaving the net decline for the day
3%c July closed less than one
fourth cent off at S7ss. .S712c.

Victims of the North.

Year after year the north demands
tribute of human life. So long as
men, driven by curiosity or greed,
dare to invade his domain, so long
will some of them die. A few may
survive frantic dashes across its fro
zen fields, but it will doubtless re-
main an unpeopled waste until the
end of time.

On telegraphing to Newmarket he
found he was correct. Mrs. Nelson
had been buried by the time the tele-
gram reached him and he was there
fore unable to attend the funeral.
Smith left New Jersey in 1877 and
has been in Kansas since then. He
has not corresponded with his family
for years and had lost all track OF
them.
Smith said tonight that he was GER
tain of his relationship with Mrs.
Fair. He has retained attorneys who
will look after his interests in con-
nection with the Fair fortune.

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in n -pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
a 1907. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has

WHY ONE is SLEEPY.
Many Hypotheses Are Advanced BY
the Scientists.

Scientists disagree as to the cause
of drowsiness. Some curious and re-
markable reasons are assigned for the
desire everybody has for sleeping. 1t
is attributed by some people to an
accumulation in the system of the
poisonous products of the wear and
tear of the body during the day.
There seems to be some measure or
truth in this, for in many diseases
the patients are often sleepless. An
other hypothesis is that the nerve
cells of the brainu dwell apart from
each other, as it were, during sleep.
The brain is composed of millions OF
tiny bodies called cells, each having
several delicate prolongations, or
branches, for the purpose of communi-
eating with other cells. When the
brain is fully active all these cells are
in contact, or ready to be in contact,
with one another; but the time &C.
casionally comes. it is thought, when
the branches of all the cells curl up,
and their isolation means that COM
plete communication between the
cells ceases. The state of body and
mind that follows is what we call
sleep.
The most probable explanation of
sleep, however. is that in some way
or other the internal condition of the
cells is changed, partly from exhaus-
ton and partly because of diminished
stimulation from other parts of the
body.

FOR cow OWNERS

The mechanical Cream Separator has
become a vital feature of every home
dairy just as of every butter factory.
Its use means much more and much
better cream and butter, as well as
saving of water, ice, time and room.
The difference in results is not small
but big. Few cows now pay without
separator. Dairying is the most proht-
able kind of farming with one.
$50 of the creamery butter of the
world is now made with De Laval

A Bad Accident.

While helping to unload a
new spring wagon from a dray,
Monday afternoon, R. G Mar
shall met with a serious acci-
dent which might easily have
proved to be fatal one. In
some way the wagon, which
was Grated, slipped from the
dray, falling on Mr.. Marshall's
shoulders crushing him to the
ground, dislocating one section
of his backbone and tearing one
rib loose from the spinal coll
umn. When the wagon was
lifted off of him he was unable
to stand but managed to crawl
into his shop where he lay until
buggy was obtained to take
him home. After reaching his
home, it required the combined
efforts of five men to pull the
dislocated joint back into place.
The fact that he was not killed
outright is due to his splendid
physique and good health, but
it is hoped by his numerous
friends that the accident will
not prove very serious and that
he will soon be able to be back
10 his place of business.
