Bone Dust For Winter Wheat.

The soil for wheat must be richly
fortified and we'll pulverized. Even
then, if the winters are exceedingly
dry and cold, there may be failure
in the crop. Many farmers in Missouri
are using bone dust to advantage.
The land that Is bone busted will

International Live Stock Show at CHICAGO, De.
cenaber I'd e.. 9th.


The Information Live Stock Show
opens this year under conditions more
favorable than ever. The Coliseum, a
handsome new structure built for this
purpose, will be completed and used
for the first time.
The display of live stock is to be so
complete that it promises to even excel
the perfection of former years.
Professor Herbert w. Munford Of
Illinois is quoted in the following short
but pithy comment on the Internation-
al:
SIT is atthe Intern ational that breed
ers and buyers mingle to mutual ad-
vantage. The breeder becomes better
informed as to approved market types,
and thus the International becomes a
potent factor in giving direction to the
breeders efforts toward live stock i'm
prOvement.'
Low rates over the North w estern
Line from all points west will be an
nOunced soon.

sion that 1.-The men of Wisconsin were
not sufficiently cultured"
On Saturday night Pfiffner went to
the university armory to take part in
competitive drill. Fifty freshmen.
headed by one known as "the Fresh
man King" gathered outside the grill
room to pay Mr. Pfiffner their respects
Captain Bennett, a member of Pf1ff-
ner's fraternity, refused the freshmen
admission, locked Pfiffner in the tower
Of the armory and telephoned for a
policeman to escort him to his Gam
ma Delta house.
The freshmen, aggravated at this
interference, attempted to persuade the
officer to release their victim and on
refusal to do so they threatened to ap-
ply force and it was only with the aid
Of his revolver and determined "I'I
shoot the first man who advances a
STEP" that he succeeded in bringing
Pfffner to his frat" house.
Pfffner afterward voluntarily gave
himself up and the freshmen painted
his face with iodine, cut off few
locks of his hair and exhibited him in
the various fraternity and sorority
houses, where they ordered him to
sing. He refused, and with the re-
fusal they clipped off another patch of
hair
A prominent senior, thinking the
matter had been carried too far, made
an effort to rescue the victim, but the
freshmen hustled him away and avert
ed an encounter with the leaders.
Pf1ff: ner was then taken to the gym
nasium pier and thrown into the lake.
1t is said that the hazing, which was
the most severe that has been done in
years, was the result of personal mall
ice. 1t is also said that the next man
to be introduced to the lake will be
the liking" himself.

Judge Wilson Renders Decision
Regarding Forest Reserves.
sToCkMEM MAY CRAZE THEIR HERDS
DECISION IF AFFIRMED MAY RAD.
IcALLY CHANGE GOVERN
MENT GRAZING RULES.

Walla Walla stockmen were apprised
today of a decision handed down by
Judge Whitson, at Yakima yesterday,
which, if sustained by the United
States supreme court, will render null
and void the allotments Of territory in
the Wenaha reserve maze at the meet
ing held in Walla Walla last De-
cember. Judge Whitson holds that the
rules and regulations of the department
of agriculture cannot prevent stock
men from keeping their herds in any
forest reserve that the government
has created.
The decision was handed down in
the case of the government against
C. A. Maxwell, who was charged with
illegal pasturing of sheep on Mount
Rainier forest reserve. J. H. Snively,
attorney for Maxwell, demurred to the
allegations on the grounds that the
secretary Of the interior did not have
the authority to make laws, and that
any he made were null and void. The
contention was made that the secretary
is not a part Of the legislative branch
of the government but of the executive
department and consequently could not
make laws. This demurrer was sus-
tanned by Judge Whitson.
The government will unquestionably
carry the decision to the supreme court
as such a ruling would render void all
the work of the forest reserve officials
in the allotment of sheep and cattle ter
ritOry.

Romance Which Was Started in Eng
land Years Ago Has Tragic
End at Butte.

BUTTE, Mont, May 10.-A romence
begun in England several years ago
between a married woman and her af-
finity had a tragic ending today when
the woman's lover, Harry Penna, a
smelter man. in a fit of jealosuy shot

aged II and 9. were in bed when their
mother was murdered.
Penna came here from Australia

agement and her promise to get a di-
vorce from her husband and desert her
two children for him, Penna says he
came here from Australia to take her
back with him. She grew cold toward
him and fed the fires of his jealousy
by bringing another man into her
house to live.
Their romance began in Cornwall

police they We're to have eloped after
she had secured the divorce There
were only two witnesses to the shoot

A SILLY TOY.


Tho WV he T00thbTush Was It E1SOl
Regarded.
Colonial diaries and letters make II
plain that our unfortunate ANCESTOR
suffered much from jumping tooth
aches, swelled faces and the early losa
or forcibie extraction of teeth which al
. later period might have been saved
to render their owners many years OF
further service. No wonder, since the
care Of tie teeth was little understood,
and that little often but negligently
practiced.
Toothpicks were known; the tooth.
brush was not, although rough substi.
tutes were employed. made Of flatten-
ed sticks. split and pounded at one end
to stiff, fibrous fringe. Toothbrushes
when first introduced were regarded
as by no means important accessories
to the toilet, but rather as minor lux
uries and suitable for women only.
The diary Of London merchant
trading to the colonies has this entry:
Bought a Toothbrush for my wife,
which, used together with salte water,
very strong, and a wasshe Of Herbs
she is told will keep her Teethe from

In the famous collection of the let
tiers Of the Verney family, as we'll, the
toothbrush Is referred to as IAN ele.
CANT trifle, now used by the ladies of
Paris"
But when Sally Annis. q colonial
belle. wrote Of it to her sister she had,
like the London merchants wife, good
hopes Of its proving of more than
triding value. Her seafaring father
had just brought her one, along with
other gifts.

VALUE OF REVIVAL ROOMS.

How They Have Helped Evangelical
Work In Philadelphia.
The revival rooms" an Interesting
feature Of the TOrrey and Alexander
religious campaign In Philadelphia.
which were recently opened In the
Hale building. have proved to be most
successful. A man may go there and
talk over spiritual things. Men have
gone In there burdened with sin and
have come out with hearts full Of joy
and faces glowing with the light Of
Christ.
During the first three days after they
were opened four men were converted
outright, five backsliders were restored
and twelve were given spiritual help.
Among the visitors are all sorts of peo-
ple-business men, travelling men,
drunkards and criminals. Some Of
them want to find Christ, and others
come after advice ON spiritual things
which have long perplexed them.
The man In charge Of the rooms, Rev.
w. 8. JacOby, is an ideal man for the
position. for he is filed with the spirit
Of God, and his past life as drunkard,
policeman and sailor enable him to
cope with all kinds Of men in all walks
Of life. When l asked Mr.. Jacoby to
tell me about some of the men who
have come to him for help he said:
Zone of the cases dealt with In the
inquiry rooms was gentleman who
came In and said that there was some
thing wrong with his Christian expert
ence and wanted to know what It was.
He had seen in others an experience
which he did not have, and he said, I
want it. For example, he told me of
q young man who worked under him
who was a habitual drunkard. The
minute his wages were put into his
hands he would go of to the rum shop,
and in little while he would be penni-
less. He was becoming a hopeless
case. One day recently this gentleman
was in the Academy of Music, when he
noticed in front of him the young man
who had been a drunkard singing
Grace Enough For Me- with such q
look on his face as he had never seen
there before He met him shortly aft
erward and asked what had caused the
change, and the former drunkard re-
piled that he had gone one day to the
Academy Of Music, with his bottle in
his pocket. and they had sung Grace
Enough For Me- The power of God
came down upon him through those
words, and he was converted and has
since become 50 active in his work for
Christ that his companions had dub
bed him Torrey the Second
This gentleman said to me, Now,
he has got something that I haven't,
and want It, After little converse
ton the gentleman went away convinc-
ID that his trouble had been unbeiief.
that he had not stepped out on the
promises Of God and pressed forward
In the work for the Master, which will
surely bring victory and Joy to any
soul who IL dead in earnest"
