MISSING MAN IS GIVEN UP FOR LOST
Two Weeks Now Since a Swedish Miner Wandered
 Away Into Mountains.

After two weeks of almost constant searching the friends of Axel Johnson, the Swedish miner who wandered on from Puertocito while temporarily in sane, have come to the conclusion that there is no hope of finding either the living man or his body and have given up the search.
 Johnson had been taking a flag cure' after a long spree and was rendered almost a lunatic by the cessation of liquor and theefYects of the cure. He is said to have wandered off in his underclothing and pair of overalls while his guards were in another room.
 They claim that Johnson acted and looked almost rational and they did not imagine anything of the kind could occur. Several men here are said to have been cured by their treatment and slight blame is attached to them for the escape of Johnson.
 It is the genera; opinion among his friends that Johnson either made his escape when a raving maniac and wan dering around the country fell into one of the numerous prospect holes. or that he was rendered Respondent and committed suicide. In either case it is believed. time alone will show his fate, and his decayed body found in the future and his identity probably never clearly established. The mur der theory at first advanced here is secuted by his friends as ridiculous.

KANSAS CITY MARKET
 REPORTS BIG DEMAND
Shipments Readily Taken Care of and Cattle Could Have
 Been Sold.
Especial to Review.)


 Stock Yards. Kansas City, Mo, Sept. 5.-This week started out Mon day with big run of cattle, there was moderate supply yesterday. run today light for the season at 9500 cat tie and 1000 calves. Demand was equal to the receipts this week. in fact more cattle could have been disposed of really both yesterday and today than have arrived. There is always a great crowd of buyers here at this season and heavy supplies are natural ly expected; on days of small receipts many buyers preseume they cannot get what they want and do not enter the competition with as much spirit as when the supply is heavy. feat ure this week, besides the large num- Der of cattle buyers. is the heavy demand for butcher stuff. coming not only from the east. but from local territory in Kansas and Missouri also. Shipments from Colorado and the Pan handle are coming pretty freely. though heavy receipts from Colorado are not anticipated before the middle of September. Killing steers from the mountains sell at s4.00 to $4.T5, panhandles, from 300 to 1000 pounds, bring s3.40 to $4.00. yearlings and two pear olds $2.75 to s3.75, Colorado cows s250 to $40. panhandle COWS s2. 30 to $500, bulls s1.s5 to s2.25, New Mexico COWS s2.30 to s2.s0. A feat ure this week was the sale of some f09S pounds fed panhandle at s6.l5.
 Sheep and lamb receipts are larger lately, 25,000 in three days, 5000 here, and trade is lively at steady prices.

In view of the just rep utation of our people for quickness and efficiency, this grotesque condi- ton of the administration of justice would be Imaginable if 1t were not so so serious.
 'sThe absurdities of the administra- tion of our criminal law have allowed the hysteria which exists in a more or less positive form in every commu- nity to find outward expression in the crime of lynching; the delays of the civil law, tending to deprive the eco nomically weak of justice, have been a potent factor in creating that wide spread disrespect for law, and distrust of Courts. which renders 1t increasing ly difficult for us to meet the new and complicated problems of our SO cial life.
 From a professional point of view, the need of the hour Is body of lawyers who know something beyond the practice of their profession: who are interested in the administration of the law in its broadeSt sense; who can turn with effect to those legal problems which call for their solution on associate action. And I believe if the facilities of our great university law schools widen their curriculum along the lines indicated, they can create a system which will produce q race of lawyers whose ideals, and therefore whose actions, fit in more closely than the ideals of their pres ent conduct with the needs of our modern world"

Marks on Corpse Indicate That Child
 Was Murdered.

CHICAGO, Sept 11.-The body of a baby was found yesterday in teie- scope that had been left at the Fair department store, and marks on the corpse indicated that the child had been murdered. The only clews the police have are the sheets in which the child was wrapped. On one of these sheets is the letter 'W." and on the other the mark. "W. IT," It Is thought that "W'' is the initial letter of some Chicago hotel. in which the child is believed to have been born
 The telescope was left in the Fair store Thursday afternoon by a woman who told the check clerk that she desired to leave the satchei for a few minutes. The clerk. not suspectins anything wrong, took the telescope and placed it on the shelf with other satchels. The woman failed to return for it. and the clerk supposed that she merely had forgotten the yalise and would return for it within a day CT two.
 Yesterday morning a strong odor was noticed to emenate from the te!e- scope. A woman ernploye of tne store opened the satchel and was hor- rified to find within dead baby. The child was wrapped in two bed sheets, two skirts and a waist. The cloth ing was blood-stained.
 The body was taken to tne county morgue and there examined by Dr. Warren Hunter, coroner's physician. He found finger prints on the child's neck and discovered that the skull had been fractured. The face also, apparently had been pounded.

course crops can be raised on the same
soil every year If we can be certain
of such liberal rainfall as we have had
for the past three years.
But 1t Is to protect us against this
very uncertainty that the Campbell
system has been developed by much
patient study and heavy expense.
Herein is found its vast Importance
1t is really great discovery 1t will
epable an immense farming popula-
tion on these fertile plains to hold their
own against even a cycle of dry sea-
sons. II such a cycle never comes
again 1t will still double the crops
when the land is all in cultivation.
Far from antagonizing irrigation it
will reinforce 1t by making limited
amount Of water go twice as far. With
out the Campbell system eastern Colo
rado lands will this year average
twenty bushels OF wheat to the acre
in the relatively few places where 1t
was planted.
Kansas has large wheat crop this
year and yet her best wheat county,
where land sells for 800 an acre, only
claims sixteen bushels. If enough
crazy" people had been found to have
planted the whole of eastern Colorado
in wheat last spring we would now
nave, without irrigation or Campbell
system. a bigger wheat total than any
state ever raised. But If we all go
crazy and thus plant this entire area
next spring a drouth may cause us a
great loss. 1t is here that the Camp
bell system comes to the rescue. 1t
costs more work. but is an insurance
against crop failures just as irriga-
tion is.
THE new farmers in a new region
are naturally crop gamblers. They bet
their all on the season ahead being
one of sufficient rainfall. They feel
that they cannot wa't two years for a
crop under the Campbell system. If
their gamble on the season wins they
are on their feet at once. For this rea-
son the new method will come into use
much more slowly than one would ex-
pect.
1t has taken thirty years to bring so
obvious convenience as the tele-
phone into universal use Gradually
the farmers will prepare small areas
under the Campbell system, in order to
have something to fall back on in case
Of drouth. while they continue to
gamble with the bulk of their lands on
the uncertainties of the season. Finally
the system will be adopted entirely and
universally"

Philippine SCHOOLS.
They Are Paid For by the Filipino
People,


Mr.. George r. Summers, who has
been teaching for the past four years
in the Philippine islands, when inter
viewed at Denver, where he has been
visiting during vacation journey,
said:
In Vigan, where I am a teacher in
the high school. we have an American
bishop and eight American priests.
Vigan is city of $4,000 on the west
ern coast, $50 miles north of Manila.
Included in the population are about
1000 Japanese and Chinese and a hun
dred or SO of Americans.
Our school building cost $4,000.
There are eight American teachers
and an American principal, as well as
half dozen native assistants. some
OF whom are equipped with an Ameri-
can college education. An additional
grade was established last term and
we now have nine grades. Pupils get
ting certain per cent. in a competi-
tive examination have the privilege of
attending an American college four
years, with transportation both ways
and every expense, living and school,
paid by the government.
1T seems to be a common impress
sion in the United States that the
United States government is paying
for all of these schools and what goes
with them, but this is not true; the
colony government is self-sustaining;
1t is paying the freight There is a
high school in every province. More
schools are being built They are mod
ern in every way. In Vigan we have a
dormitory attachment in which there
are forty girls. School hours are from
to 10 and 3 TO 5. This is because
of the intense heat in midday. The
natives take kindly to the American
schools.
"Of course. it is generally known
that the country is solely an agricul-
tural one. Hemp, sugar. rice, tobacco
and cocoanuts are the staple products.
There is not a soldier within $50 miles
of Vigan. The soldiers are stationed
in the southern parts, where the Moros
and other half-civilized tribes make
trouble. In these sections there is a
little lighting going on now and then
and several other Americans rode fifty
miles inland several months ago. and
not one of the party had any more for
midable arm than penknife We get
little recreation in hunting deer and
the wild boar, fishing and playing ten
mis- and croquet and baseball The ma
tives like American games. They are
bright in school; just as apt as white
children"

Bryan Meets King Edward.

London.-William =. Bryan, who was
introduced by Ambassador Reid, was
received in private audience by King
Edward at Buckingham palace. The
visit was paid at the Kings special re-
quest, his majesty having notified Mr.
Reid that he desired to meet Mr..
Bryan. The interview was quite in
formal and was marked by the pleas
ing cordiality which the King is accus-
toned to show Americans in whom he
is interested. Only the King, Mr.. REID
and Mr.. Bryan were present. The con.
versation largely turned on the subject
of peace and the Interparliamentary
Union, with the objects of which the
King showed himself thoroughly in ac-
cord.

Proof Against Burglars.

Ninety-three million years is the
time given to unlock safe which is
fastened with the wonderful new lock
invented in Jamaica. The combina-
tion consists of four sets of "a let
ters of the alphabet which can be set

guages. When one letter is used in
one alphabet and another in a. second
set and so on. it becomes most COM

initial problem of which language it
has been keyed in, to be solved by
the man that attempts to open t he
safe. Furthermore. instead of letters

employed four sets of numerals. As

The Fight Against consQnption-

The Fight Against Consumption
Great comfort is to be derived from
the census figures relative to the NOR
tality rates for the last few years. 1t
appears from these statistics that tu-
berculosis Is causing a markedly
smaller percentage OF deaths at present
than formerly, indicating n certain de-
gree Of success in the fight against the
great white plaugue' which is being
waged in all parts of this country.
The statistics unfortunately cover only
ten of the states and 334 cities. owing
to the lack of organized systems Of
recording and reporting in all parts
of the United States These stafes are
Connecticut. Indiana. Maine, Massa-
chusetts. Michigan. New Hampshire.
New Jersey. Rhode Island. and Yer
mont. and these. together with the
cities in other states which carefully
preserve death records constitute a
population OF 3f,000.000 or two-fifths
of that of the United States. Accord
ing to the returns from these sources
the latest calculable rate OF mortal
fly from consumption was 1926 ner
100000 OF population. In 1890 the rate
was 245.4. This diminution, says the
Washington Star, is likely to progress
more rapidly in the future, for most
of the work of public education in
combating the disease has been done
during the last decade, and is largely
fundamental. The good result of the
local propaganda In behalf of clean
living, good. fresh air, thorough sani-
tation. and, to certain extent, segre-
CATION of consumptives, is just begin
ming to be felt. The warfare against
consumption is proceeding along two
broad lines. prevention and cure The
former is being waged by both physi-
clans and laymen. and Is an educa-
tional work. The latter is strictly
scientific and the results are less dis
tinct, because they arc observable
chiefly by the members of the medical
profession. The real problem of to-
day lies in teaching the people two
prime facts-that consumption is COM
municable and that its communication
can be prevented by the observance of
certain simple rules of hygiene and
cleanliness

RECEIVER FOR ZION.
United States Court Decides Against
Dowie.

Chicago.-Judge Landis OF the
United States District Court gave his
decision Friday in the controversy be-
tween the adherents of John Alexan-
der Dowie and Wilbur volivia over the
property OF Zion City.
John c. Hately was appointed re-
ctiver OF Zion. His bonds were placed
ut $4,000. The adjudication In the
bankruptcy proceedings against Dowie
was set aside.
The court holds that Zion City and
It's Industries do not belong to Dowie
that, while the contributors of the
funds did not express formal declar-
alton of trust, trust was created and
Dowie had no right to treat the prop
erty as his own.
The court refused to appoint Alex
nnder Granger receiver for the reason
that Granger made a vow recognizing
Dowie as "a messenger OF the COW
enant, the prophet foretcld by Moses,
and Elijah the restorer," to which vow
"all family ties and obligations and all
relations to human governments shall
be held subordinate" The court said
he was not Obliged to repose confidence
in man SO constituted that, living in
This republic, he would serenely vow
his readiness at all times to abandon
his family and betray his country.
The court ordered an election on the
third Tuesday of September of gen
eral overseer. all members of the
church residing in Zion City, male and
female, to have one vote. He an
rounced that suitable provision would
be made for Dowie on account of his
services as trustee.
The effect of the decision is to place
the industrial affairs of Zion City in
the hands of the court through the
agency of Mr.. Hately, while the
churchs spiritual matters will come
under the supervision of the overseer
to be elected in September.
Claims against Dowie are now
claims against the receiver.
Mr.. Hately is member Of the board
OF trade, capitalist and is active in
charitable and reform movements.
AS to the election, Judge Lands as.
sured the litigants that he took the re-
sponsibility for its fairness on his own
shoulders.
Dowie was not in court, Illness con-
fning him to his hotel. A number OF
members of the church. who still cling
TO him, were present.
