Assaulted and Murdered.

MIAMI, Fla, Dec.p9.-Mrs. Dora suggs
was assaulted and murdered here yester-
day afternoon about five o'clock. She
had been in Miami shopping and her nep-
hew accompanied her part of the way
home. Mr.. Suggs was alarmed by the
teamreturning home without his wife. A
search In which the whole neighborhood
ioined resulted in finding her mutilated
body. The ground around it showed
signs of very severe struggle. Irving
Potter, who lives near where the body
was found, saw a man following her
wagon as she drove by, but he supposed
it was Mr.. suggs. Rev. James Bolton
also saw her and soon after heard her, as
he thought at the time, singing, but now
thinks calling for help. One hundred
and fifty armed men are searching the
woods and feeling is at fever heat.
Mrs. suggs was much loved by neighbors'

Trick Of the Drug Trade.

''Neyer ask for the copy Of a pre-.
scription at the time you buy the medi-
cine" said the dyspeptic looking man.
'sIn nine out of ten drug stores they
wiz tack 10 or IS cents to the regular
price Of the medicine II you do. That
of course is contrary to professional
etiquette. Druggists are not supposed
to charge extra for furnishing a copy
Of a prescription. If you will wait a
few days and ask for it, unaccompa'
MED by a bottle Of medicine, they
won't have the nerve to do it, but
when the two are prepared together
they can gain. some compensation for
their extra work and the loss Of pos
sible customer without anybody being
the wiser."-New York Press.

ETIQUETTE AMONG PEERS
Rules Laid Down to Preserve the
Dignity of Their Chamber.

Rules Laid Down to Preserve the
Darnity of Their Chamber.
Besides insisting upon all due respect
to themselves the peers suffer no dis
respect t6 the stately gilded chamber
in which they are accustomed to assem-
bic. Even. when parliament Is not in
session none but members are allowed
to be covered there. Not even the eldest
son of any peer may wear bis hat in
the room. Neither is any person to
stay there, nor any attendant on any
nobleman but while he brings In his
lord, and then he is to retire himself"
In 17O3 official notice was taken OF
the fact that Of late the doorkeepers
have frequently presumed to come
within the doors when the house Is sit
ting, and it was therefore ordered that
for the future this liberty be forbid
den. Another point in which the peers
are scrupulous to preserve their dig.
mty is revealed In the standing order
with reference to conferences between
the two houses.
It sets forth that "the place Of our
meeting with the lower house upon
conference is usually the painted cham.
Der, where they are commonly before
we come and expect our leisure. We
are to come thither In whole body
and not some lords scattering before
the rest, which both takes from the
gravity Of the lords and besides may
hinder the lords from taking their
proper places. We are to sit there
and be covered, but they are not at
any committee or conference either to
be covered or sit down in our presence
unless it be some inf1rm person and
that by connivance In corner out OF
sight, to sit, but not to be covered"
Although never rescinded, this regu-
lation is now practically obsolete

THAT GRAIN RATE

The decision of the State Board of
Railroad Commissioners in the grain
rate cases serves to emphasize the evil
Of arbitrary worked out on a theory
Of favoring or discriminating against
certain industries or individuals instead
of on basis Of right and justice. Had
two members of the commission not
considered the habit of the railroads to
arbitrarily raise and lower special rates,
the farmers of Kansas would have Jared
far better in the grain rate decision
than they did.
It is stated that Commissioner. Wheat
ley was in favor of ordering a fifteen
per cent reduction in the grain rates. If
Mr.. Wheatley's idea had prevailed it
would have added several hundred thou
sand dollars to the profits of the grain
growers. But the other members of the
commission. Messrs. Walker and Robi-
son, refused to consent to a reduction Of
more than five per cent, on the plea that
the railroads might carry out their
threat to take away the milling-in-
transit privilege from the millers.
Now the miIling-in-tran privilege
is either just or it is unjust. If it is
unjust the railroad commissioners GER
tainly ought not to have allowed it to
stand in the way of a just reduction
of the grain rates; if it is just they
ought to insist on its being accorded the
millers and not arbitrarily taken away
from them by the railroads.
The mflling-in- transit privilege allows
a mill to buy a car Of wheat at some
point further west. ship it to the mill
and stop it there, but to send on a car of
flour to Kansas City at the same rate
as though the original car of wheat had
gone on through For instance "a To-
peka mill buys a car Of wheat in Barton
county. The through rate to Kansas
City is Is cents Without the milling
in-transit privilege the mill would have
to pay the local rate, IA cents, on the
wheat from Barton county to Topeka,
and cents on the flour from Topeka to
Kansas City. total of twenty cents, or
FIVE cents more than the through rate.
This would give grain dealers and Kan
sas City mills cents a hundred advan-
age over Kansas mills.
It is to the interest of the railroads
to develop the milling industry in Kan
sas, as it makes business both ways for
the roads. so that the miIling-in-t transit
privilege is certainly just and to the ad-
vantage of all concerned. 1t is quite
probable that the railroads would have
adjusted the milling rates to CORE
spond with whatever the grain rates
might be. but if they did not the rail-
road commissioners could easily take a
hand in the matter and adjust it.
A reduction of fifteen per cent instead
of only five per cent in the grain rates
would have benefited the grain growers
Of Kansas at least half million dollars
1t is to Commissioner Wheatley's credit
that he stood for the fifteen per cent

has operated to bring about an up

than Nine. Rejaness kick. All pre-
vious fiscal disturbances were due to
/ combinations of circumstances rather
/ than to any cause in particular, but the
I distracting situation which has resulted
/ from the exposure of life insurance
management. and the depressing effect
which this exposure has had upon the
past, present, and future of some Of
our leading hnanciers and statesmen, is
attributable directly to the artistic
kicking with which Nine. Rejane re-
called a happy company brought to-
I gether by James Hazen Hyde at the
expense of the Equitable policy
holders
Of Nine. Rejane had not done the
can-can on table" argues the Inter
/ Ocean, nothing would have been said
about the Hyde dinner. and the Hyde
dinner was the beginning of that long
series of troubles to which Mr.. Hughes
of New York is now devoting his legal
talents.
So it was Nine. Rejane's kick that
was responsible. If she had not kick
ed at the Hyde dinner, the elder Nc
Curdy would still be drawing a salary
Of S150,000 a year and living in four
magnificent and sumptuously furnished
mansions, while his son, his son-in-law,
and all OF his relatives by blood and
marriage would still be fattening on
the Mutual premiums"
If Nine. Rejane had not kicked, con-
templates this Chicago philosopher. we
should never have heard Of a can
tankerous person up the river, Chaun-
cey NJ. Depew would still be an after
dinner talker, Thomas c. Plat would
not have taken US all into his conf
dence regarding the collection of cam
paign contributions, Mr.. Mccall would
not be waiting to have others make up
his mind, Mr.. Ryan would not have to
answer questions from which he in
stfnctiveIy shrinks. Mr.. Alexander
would not have taken to the Pennsyl-
vania woods, young Mr. Hyde would
not be out of a job, and Grover Cleve-
land would not be sitting up nights
and doubtful risks.
In short. the Inter Ocean concludes,
if Nine. Rejane had not kicked, the
outlook. which once seemed filed with
perpetual sunshine for all the captains
of industry, would not now be filled
with deep gloom. Little did Nine. Re
jane think-littIe did those who were
fortunate enough to be present at the
Hyde dinner think-as she kicked
amidst the champagne glasses on the
table, that she was kicking holes that
never could be mended in so many
brights prospects and so many unim-
peachable regulations.
