all the world was sad and dreary'

nonsense they used to sing, too.
DO you remember Sweet Belle
Mahone' and the young man home
from college who used to bring his
guitar and sing about Sweet Belle
Mahone' to sister, and how you used
to look at his black hair and watch
his hands picking at the guitar
strings and wonder how in the world
sister could ever resist.hi
Poor young man with the guitar.
He's middle-aged man now, and
his hair is neither SO black nor so
shiny as it used to be, and he car
ries abank book instead of guitar,
and the girl he used to sing to is
married to congressman from out
west, and he has married a woman
who wouldn't have a guitar, or any
thing so old-fashioned, in the house
for years income.
''I'd like to lure him in out of the
wet some summer evening and start
up that old song.

his eyes that his clerks haven't seen
there for long time.

And how about your old friend
Belle Brandon, who was birdling

best or did your fancy rove to 'Ros-

Do you ever hear tell of a mocking

who sang so far and wide?

The matter is to be settled by the

Altogether the event may be called
the most successful ever pulled of

WILL EXPERIMENT
Government Takes up Study of
Loco Weed.

Professor Carlyle of the agricul-
tural college has purchased num-
Der of horses and colts which will be
shipped to Hugo the first of the
week to be used in the loco expert
ments. The Hugo Range Ledger
says:
lone car of live stock, consisting
of twelve head of young steers and
six head of young horses, was receiv-
ed here from Denver the fore part of
this week for the loco experiment
station. The cattle are from Long
mont. Colorado, and, as far as is
known, have never seen or tasted
loco weed. They, with the horses,
which are also free from loco, have
been placed in a pasture, just across
Big Sandy from Hugo, where the
loco weed abounds, and are under
the personal supervision of DIR. C.
Dwight Marsh Of the agricultural
department, assisted by Harry Persll-
ing as herdsman. Another shipment
of stock is expected soon to be placed
in q pasture one mile west of Hugo
which is entirely free from loco
While the cattle have been here but
a few days, DR.. Marsh informs us
that they have commenced already
to eat loco, which establishes beyond
the shadow of doubt the fact that
cattle will eat the weed-a fact, by
the way, that some people have seen
fit to deny. This one fact is Of
much encouragement to DIR. Marsh,
and leads him to believe that other
facts alleged by our local stockmen
in regard to the plant and its effect
upon animals will be as easily
proven in due course of time. II
such is the case, then the experiment
will demonstrate that solution of
the loco problem is essential, and
the agricultural department will go
to work with increased energy to
discover remedy

overstaying Leave

A court-martial to try Capt John J.
O'Connen, of the Twenty eighth in
fantry, charged with overstaying his
leave of absence from Fort Smelling,
will convene at the army building
Tuesday.
Trials by court-martial are usually
held at the military post where the al
legged offenses are committed or where
the prisoner is held in arrest The fact
that the accused is an officer accounts
for the variation in the procedure.
In the charges and specification made
against Capt. O'Connell it is set out
that he was absent without leave, al
though the charges do not allege that
he was outside the Twin cities during
the time complained of.
He has been in the service for twelve
years and for most of that time was an
officer in the Twenty-fir Infantry
The personnel of the court is as fol-
lows:

RICHARD CROKER'S
SON BREAKS A LEG
His Chauffeur Is Thrown High in Air
and Killed Instantly

r DAYTONIA, Fla, Jan. 21.-While
speeding his racing automobile on the
beach today Frank Croker, son of Rich
ard Croker, of New York, collided with
a motorcycle chair driven by a hotel
attache. Mr.. Croker's leg was broken.
His chauffeur, Raoul, was thrown forty
feet in the air and landed on his fore
head, killing him instantly. The
chair driver had both legs broken.
Mr.. Croker was driving his racer and
started to turn out of the way of the
motor cycle. AS he did so the front
tires Of his machine flew off and 1t
plowed into the sand. The machine
turned over three times. The first turn
threw Machinist Raoul. Mr.. Croker
went out on the second turn and sus-
tanned a fracture of the right leg at
the knee, a fracture of all the bones
of the left arm at the elbow and three
broken ribs. One of his ears is badly
torn. Mr.. Croker rallied from the
shock and the subsequent operation
satisfactorily.
The accident breaks up Mr.. Croker's
plans, as he expected to participate in
the races here next week, then go to
Palm Beach to take. part in the motor
boat races and then take his automo-
bile to Cuba for speed trials. The ma
chine in turning went toward the ocean
and was partly submerged by the tide.
Frank Croker is the second son of
Richard Croker. For nearly ten years
he has been a leading spirit in the
realm of sports. For three years he
has been an enthusiast in the automo-
bile line and has taken part in many,
notable races. His greatest effort to
win honors in this field was in the
Vanderbilt cup race on Long Island
last fall, when he drove his own ma
chine against all the professionals from
this country and Europe.

Inc dominican government will have
at each custom house inspectors on be-
half OF its interests from the date the
contract takes effect. The present
employees are to be considered as act
ing under its provisions.
Revenues Apportioned
Out of the revenues collected at the
custom house the American govern
ment will deliver to the Dominican
government 45 per cent of the total of
the gross amount for the necessities
OF the budget. 1t is estimated that the
hrst year 100000 will be receivable
monthly. The advance payments are
divided into four instaliments, in the
following manner: $18,750 on the 1st,
8th, 18th and 22d of each month.
In case the total revenues of the first
or subsequent year are less than $780,
600, the payments may be proportion
ately decreased. Out Of the 55 per cent
the American government will pay the
employees Of the custom houses and the
AAieS. CSts oAi Lie di1lOfllZdliOu Oh the IOr-
elgn and domestic debts. The whole
surplus may remain and each fiscal
year will be delivered to the Dominican
government and devoted to the pay
ment of it's. debts.
American Consent Necessal
No changes in the present import
dues or port charges will be made with
out the consent of the American gov
ernment until the debt is completely
paid. Excepting export dues, the gov
ernment has the right to abolish or re-
duce dues Immediately.

quest of the Dominican government,
shall grant such other assistance in its
power to restore the credit, preserve
order, increase the efficiency of civil
administration and advance the ma
terial progress and welfare of the re-
public. The agreement will take effect
