Dust covered, bare and Brown,
Where weeds grow tall and rank

But every one knows me
It's there / long TO be.

Well, I'll not be forlorn,

MAYOR ROSE IN ONTEMPT
Sapreme Court of Kansas Assessed
His Fine at $1,000.
HAD Been Custer from Onlce i'll
Kansas City. Kan. for Nio-
lntions of Law.

Topeka, Kan. The supreme court
of Kansas handed down an opinion
Friday morning in which it found w.
w. Rose, mayor of Kansas City, Kan ,
guilty of contempt 70" holding office
from which he had been ousted by the
court. For this breach OF respect to
| the highest legal tribunal i'll the state
the court fined Mayor Rose $1,000, to
be paid within 20 days. If the fine
is not paid within that time Rose is to
he committed to the Shawnee county
Jail at Topeka and be kept there until
the fine is paid.
The final paragraph Of the opinion
in which the judgment is contained
is as follows: "The contention that
| to deprive the defendant of the right
to hold the office for the remainder
of the term is to take away a right
| from him without due process of law
is not well founded. He is only made
to suffer the penalty imposed for mis-
conduct in office and violating the
law The office is created by statute
The grounds of forfeiture are de-
scribed by statute and the statue pro-
vides the method by which the forfeit
ure is declared He has no vested
right to the Office, and especially
none which may not be forfeited and
lost by misdeeds, Having violated
the statute he must suffer the penal
ty which the statute prescrjbes. Hav
ing disobeyed and violated the judG-
r1ent lawfully rendered and still in
force, he is in contempt If this court
and will therefore be adjudged to pay
fine of $1,000 and the costs of these
proceedings. and If the fine and costs
are not paid within 20 days he shall
be committed to the jail OF Shawnee
county until they are paid"
Mayor Rose was ousted from his
office by the Kansas supreme court be-
cause of his failure to close the liquor
Joints and also because he knowingly
permitted 4 system of police fines on
the iointkeepers which virtually Ii
censed them to sell liquor in the city
in violation of the Kansas prohibitoTy
liquor law.
The custer decree, given April 6,
clearly specified that Rose was ineli-
gible to hold the Office of mayor for the
entire term of two years for which
he was elected, dating from April II,
1905.
Mayor Rose anticipated such de-
cision, and three days before it was
given he sought to evade it by re-
signing his Office.
A special election was called to fill
the vacancy at which Rose became
candidate for the position and YVES
elected. He has since continued to
perform the duties Of mayor in de-
finance of the courts order

Delicacy Relished by All Animals
Even the Hirpopotamus Devours

"The peanut is a ddlicacy relished by

lover. 81 have come to this conclusion
after having offered it to every animal
in the Central Park ZOO, and having II
refused by none.
"Oh, know it isn't allowed; but I'm
not one of those individuals who offer
animals indiscriminate numbers OF
hard boiled eggs, frankfurters, cheese
sandwiches and cigar stumps. It's for
that sort of nuisance the rule about
feeding is made. single peanut can't
ruin the digestion of a camel-or of
any other creature, for that matter,
and | never visit the zoo without a
bag or two of those legumes to dis
tribute.
Eyes, the camel is fond of them
very; and so are the peacocks. The
hippopotamus obligingly opens his
mouth to let me toss one in, but the
mouth is so large and the peanut so
small that doubt If he can quite de-
eide whether he likes 1t or not.
1.-THE kangaroo pokes his funny,
horse-like head out to me; munches the
peanut with relish, and then begs for
more. The elephant, deer, ostrich, and
even the lion, are all lovers of the pea
nut"

YHE FIRST COMPASS.
Was Known to Sailors Before the
Twelfth Century-fndispensable
Adjunct to Navigation.

Some Asian people, perhaps the CHI
nese, discovered, many centuries ago,
that a KIND of iron ore possessed a very
peculiar quality. We call this ore
magnetic ore, in more common Ian
guage, lodestone, and it is very widely
distributed, especially in the older
crystalline rocks. 1t was found that
If bit of lodestone were placed In
water upon piece of cork or straw
braid it would turn till the axis OF the
stone assumed a north and south POSI-
ton. A phenomenon of magnetism had
been discovered by means OF an ore
that is peculiarly susceptible to mag
netic influence.
1t is an open question whether the
Chinese utilized the directive power OIL
the lodestone, but it is certain that the
first rude compass was not used on
European vessels before the twelfth
century of our era. BY that time the
true magnetic compass had been
evolved through the discovery that II
an iron or steel needle were stroked
on a lodestone it would receive the at
tractive and directive power of this
ore With this wonderful appliance
placed at the service of navigation, the
vessels that had Rugged the coasts soon
dared to venture even out of sight OF
land. A new impetus was gradually
given to cartography, for now the true
directions of the coast lines might be
charted with some approach to accu-
racy. 1t was the happy fortune of ltal'
ian sailors to make the surprisingly eX-
cellent surveys of the directions and
lengths of the Black sea and Mediter-
ranean coasts and along the Atlantic
to British waters that have come down
to us in the so-called Portulan maps
