La Junta tribune. (La Junta, Bent County, Colo.) 1881-1939, 1906-05-30

That the candidacy of Mr.. Swink
is not being taken lightly by the
people of the state at large is becom-
ing more apparent every day. At
first the suggestion was regarded as
a joke by the newspapers. but since
then the friends of the senator have
been at work quietly sounding the
people and creating a sentiment in
his favor. That they have been sue
cessful in their efforts and feel en-
couraged beyond their fondest hopes
there is no question The rank and
file of the republican party is un-
doubtedly SICK and tired Of casting

Next day the eligible bachelors valel

The gun was in small demand. There
seemed much more pleasure in jogging
along country roads mounted on clum-
sy farm horses and helping a girl re-
gain her strength. She looked so tiny

BURIED LIVING PERSONS.
Horrible Custom of Japanese Prior
to Year 040 A. d

Horrible Custom Of Japanese Prior
to Year GAG A. "a
Prior to the year 646 A. D. the Japa-
nese had one Of the NEST horrible burial
customs that can be imagined-that Of
burying all the immediate friends and
retainers Of prince or other person Of
note in standing position around the
potentate's grave and leaving them in
the earth up to their necks to perish
Of thirst and hunger.
The custom cannot be said to have
been general as late as the date given,
for the Japanese records prove that In
the time Of the Emperor Suinin C97-30
B. c. the burial rites Of royal person
ages were so modified as to partially
abolish former cruelties. Speaking Of
a young brother Of SUNNI, who died
and had his retinue buried standing
around his grave, the old record says:
For many days they died not, but
wept and cried aloud. At last they
died. Dogs and crows assembled and
ate off their heads. The emperors COM
passion was aroused, and he desired to
change the manner Of burial When
the empress died, socn after, the mika-
do inquired Of his officers IL something
in the way of a change could not be
suggested. and. one proposed to make
clay figures Of men and bury them as
substitutes"
That this did not entirely do away
with the former custom is proved by
an edict issued in the year 646 A. D.,
the date given first above, which forbid
the burial Of living persons and provid-
ed penalty for further adherence to
the awful Tite.-St Louis Republic.

A PLAYFUL YEAHIINCf CALF STOOD BEFORE
dead leaves-more noise, he thought,
than one mans feet could possibly pro-
duce. The eligible bachelor had never
before had an opportunity TO play
knight Grant, but he suddenly felt
himself longing to kill the scOundrel
who had frightened this girl.
There was another scurry Of leaves,
and then-a playful yearlng calf stood
before him, prancing in the awkward
way peculiar to sporting calves, with
an expression in its eyes that seemed
to wink at the man and ask if he didn't
see the point OF the joke.
The eligible bachelor stared, then let
his gun fall to the ground.
Good Lordr' he howled. ''Was that
what frightened yOu?" 20
The girl had wFiggled out of his arms
and stood behind him, peering around
him for a safe glimpse of the enemy.
eff he had already knocked you
down once and was trying to do it
again 1 don't suppose it would be so
funny to you" she said resentfuIly, ev-
identity not approaching his ecstasy of
mirth.
He sent the calf down the road with
a few warlike gestures and turned TO
look at her, amusement still lurking in
his eyes.
She had seated herself on a stone
and was pinning up a torn place in
her skirt.
Some people can laugh at nothing"
she said icily, fitting the edges of the
torn place together.
The man looked at the small face.
rosy from the frosty morning air, and
noticed the short brown hair that
made little curls around her forehead.
I'm a brute to laugh he said pen
itently, "but it was so-er-sudden."
BE was in danger Of offending again.
He took his handkerchief to brush
the mud from her dress.
you are evidently not accustomed
to them" he queried, smiling.
Il have never had such close ac-
quaintance with one before" she said.
Il live in the city and am down here
to get strong. 1 am boarding at the
farmhouse just above here"
Pm down here on a little hunting
trip" he said, not adding that he was
also taking a rest from being hunted
during the season by maneuvering
mammas. 81 wonder il they would
give me dinner at your farmhouseT"
'.I'm sure they would" She ex-
tended the hospitality Of a hospitable
country. It's the first house you
come to, and they are named Jones
sou can't forget it if your memory is
any good at all. I'll tell them you
are coming to the 1 o'clock dinner"
She had repaired the damage to her
skirt as best she could and stood up
to 60.

they are good for invalids,' letting his
eye rest again on the little, short, boy
ish curls that made him wonder if she
were sixteen or twenty. Maybe you
will accept them as a peace Offering
and forgive me for laughing"
A hint Of shyness in her eyes made
him understand that her resentment
was really a reaction from the embar-
TasSment Of having rushed into his
arms. now that her fright was over
and the cause at a distance seemed so
trivial.
She gave a regretful look at the.
torn place in her skirt. Il never shall
be able 60 mend Il so II won't show"
she said as she left him.

As Well as a Mark of Beauty is Lux

Il has been truly said that the
GROWING glory of our race is a lux
uriant head Of hair.
1t used to be thought that this was
enc of the blessings which the gods
bsstow capriciously. and it is only
recently that scientists have discover
ed that its beauty is dependent upon
the absence of a minute germ which
fourishes in the hair follicles, where
it destroys the life of the hair.
To restore this life and kill the
germs which cause the mischief is the

Did Not "Sabe" Old shep.

The more ignorant of the Mexican
race early in life "sabe'' to mo sabe'
wnen asked questions in English and

about eight years of age was in the
grocery department of the Joyce-Pruit

and anxious glances at the great dis
play of all kinds of fruit in the front
par of the store. At an opportune
time he connected himself with a big
peach and started out with the prize.

him and said that boy has been in

DEEM ADVISABLE to secure 1nfor-
nation as to the sense of the voters
for the INFORMATION of the coun-
Gil. Very well, this suggests to the
Record that if information is all they
are seeking it is altogether unneces-
sary to throw the entire burden on
Mayor Stockard.
The "Parson' is not a member of
the Ministerial Union, but believes
the preachers might help a little in
gathering information. The Parsons
plan would be for the ministers to get
together and decide upon form of
petition, and then each minister en-
list his own flock. For instance get
the signatures of men and wives, then
state under each family head the
number of children, boys and girls,
in whose interest we protest against
any restoration of licensed gambling
The Parson believes it the duty of
the ministers to do this, and do it
at once-even if it require SO much
time they all have to work over old
sermons next Sunday. School teachers
might also help. The Record has been
in this fight long time, but believes
the time has come for somebody else
to do something. Show the six loyal
men on the council that you have
confidence in them.
P. S.-Do not forget to state the
professions or trades of the signers.
And, by the way, would it be i'm
pertinent to ask the organization of
women who secured the Carnegie Ii
brary to lend it's moral influence.

OIL TRUST WILL GO INTO
THE DISTiLLING BUSINESS
May Acquire All the Principal Distil-
limo Plants of United States.

Chicago, Aug. 27.-The Standard
Oil Co. has started a move towards
acquiring the ownership of all the
principal distilling plants in the United
ed States, according to a dispatch
received from Peoria, Illinois. A con-
ference was held Friday last in Chi
cago between representatives of the
distilling interests and the Standard
Oil Co. A price has been set on ev-
cry distillery in Peoria, and the indi-
cations are that deal will be effec-
ted and the plants will pass into the
hands of the Standard Oil Company
soon. 1t is said that a price was ask
ed and was considered, and that the
Standard Oil people threatened that
if terms could not be reached they
would build distilleries of their own.

A report was received here Sunday
that two men and four mules were
killed by lightning seven miles this
side of Kenna. The report came from
Campbell, where ]. g. Metschan and
seven other men brought the news
Sunday morning.
The party of eight was riding from
Portales to Roswell and came upon
the dead at a point a mile and half
from Boaz The mules were lying
dead in the road, two of them in the
harness and the other two behind the
wagon, where they had been led. Two
men were sitting in the seat, one
leaning a little forward and the 9th
er a little backward. They had been
dead two or three days, evidently, for
they were badly swollen and mad be-
gun to decay. The party did not in
vestigate, OF even look in the wagon
for other bodies that possibly might
be there, but came to Campbell and
made report
When the matter was reported to
Sheriff Woodruff in Roswell he decid-
ed to take a justice and jury to Boaz
for an inquest, but later found out
that the mems last name was Simp-
son and that they had relatives in the
north part of the county. This caused
the sheriff to send his deputy, Jim
Taylor. who is also constable of the
north precinct. to Investigate this
morning. Undertaken Clarence Ul-
lery and an assistant also went to
look after the bodies, should it be
necessary to bring them back. 1t is
evident that the men were killed by
a bolt, and unless the relatives ask
it, there will be no inquest Should
they desire an inquest, the bodies
will be brought to Roswell for the in
quest
LATER The two men were Vic
tor and Tam Simpson, brothers. whose
home is Az miles west of Elida. They
had been to South Sphing, southeast
of Roswell, and were taking home a
load of apples when, undoubtedly,
they were stricken by lightning. 1t is
thought they were killed Thursday.
The remains will probably be taken
to Elida for burial, without inquest.

wife and two children. The wife IS
