Hunter In Charge.

Lawrence, Kas., April 18.-The en-
tomology department Of the Univer'
sity Of Kansas, under the direction Of
Prof. 8. J. Hunter, has decided to be-
gin war upon the green bugs in the
wheat fields by distributing parasites
which feed upon the pests through
out the infested area. For several
weeks letters have been coming to
the university asking It to take a
hand in checking the green Dug In the
same manner that 1t carried on the
chinch bug war in the early '90s Prof.
Hunter, however, did not consider the
condition very alarming and SO walt
ed to see II with warm weather the
parasites could not check the pest
without any artificial breeding and
distribution. He still does not believe
there will be any widespread loss,
but owing TO the cop;;nued 4, cool
weather he has decided to distribute
parasites. 1890 .ttss

mology department, Will Grisea ana

of well-known man in public life are

day passes that the president doesn't

Recently James j. Jeffries received
such letter, mailed in New York and
with nothing to show it's destination save
a rather poor half-tone of himself. 1t ar

Grated by the post mark. This letter was
addressed to Los Angelus, Cal" and of
course was sent here without question.
AT the local office it was turned over
to the puzzle clerk, who gave 1t one
glance and sent 1t on it's way to the Au-
ditorium theater.
"a little late for The Lightning Con-
ductor,'" he remarked; "but they tell me

NEW PLAYLET PROVES
ARTISTIC PRODUCTION
Lee Willard Demonstrates He Is
Worthy of Better Role Than
Is Provided by "a Texas
Ranuer"

Mr.. Lee Willard, who is playing at the
head of the Texas Ranger" company at
the Grand, demonstrated last night that
he is capable of better things than the
ranting cowboy stunt presented by his
company. AS a curtain raiser yesterday
afternoon and evening Mr.. Willard and
Leo Lindhart, of his company, offered a
one act playlet entitled Two Old Men"
The old cronies are the deacon and his
neighbor. Though differing widely in all
most every philosophy of life, they are
and always have been faithful friends
They are talking over boyhood friends
who have all passed away as the curtain
rises, and from that come to the discus
sion of their two sons, who have been
set up in tusine IS in the city by the
parents jointly.
The deacon lords it somewhat over his
friend because the deacon's son has
more git up thsn his friends boy. He
also claims that his boy is a much better
boy than his friends because he writes
home oftene., and attributes this to the
careful religious training received at the
Sunday school. The other old man
maintains his fatherly pride in remem-
bering the good times he and his boy
have had together
AS they talk letter is left by the post
man and the old man reads that the
deacon's son has absconded, carrying off
the funds of the partnership. AS he
reads his old friend is still arguing the
superiority of lis son, the one who has
just robbed his partner. Fatherly pride
and anger g. the wrong done struggle in
the old mans heart with the inclination
to tell The deacon of his sons crime.
Friendship turns the scale in favor Of
silence, and he deacon leaves, not know
ing that the so of whom he he boasted
SO loudly, was thief.
Both characters were presented in a
manner tina left nothing to be desired
In makeup, voice and action both " a.
lard and Lindhart were the living per-
sonation of the old friends. 1.-TWO Old
Men" will be given as a curtain raiser
at each pc ormance of "A Texas
Ranger"

and got a drink of water from the ice
cooler and studied over the matter.
Then he came back and looked the
young man over again.
After this last inspection. Connolly was
convinced that the man he had under
his eye was the murderer of Patrolman
Lyon, but in spirit of caution he
walked to the front of the room and
called Thomas H. Maynard, one of the
proprietors of the place, to one side and
asked him who the fellow was.
Maynard replied that he was a young
man who had first appeared inrthe room
several days before and had been pay
ing pool and checkers in the place.
After looking the man over again care
fully, Connolly advanced and laid his
hand on the mans shoulder.
Mitchell, l want YOU" he said.
In flash the fellow turned, and as he
did so he drew from his trousers pocket
big revolver and thrust it's muzzle
toward the poiceman's face.
AS quick as his movement had been,
that OF the officer was quicker. AS the
revolver rose to level he threw out his
hand and grasped H. with his thumb be-
tween the breech and the hammer.
Thumb Saves Life
Six times the hammer fell under the
pull of the trigger but Connolly held
on and the pin failed to reach the cart
ridges.
"I killed one policeman already, and I'll
kill you yet," yelled Mitchell, as he strug-
gled to discharge his gun at Connolly.
I'll get you :irst. If l can" cried the
policeman. as he threw his whole weight
on the man and tried to beat him to the
floor.
At this point. w. D. Murray, an en-
ploye of the city street department and
former policeman, came to Connelly's as
sistance.
He rushed at Mitchell and grasped him
by the throat In the struggle which
followed Murray was beat over the head
by the big gun in Mitchels hand and
his scalp and face cut to ribbons by the
blows.
In an indiscriminate mass the three men
struggled for several minutes until Will
lam Asmus, a ball player who had at
first alarm run from the place, returned
and picked up billiard ball from a table
in the rear of the room.
Stepping closely to the three men, As
mus poised himself as in the days of
his ball playing and, throwing the billiard
ball with all his force, struck Mitchell
on the left cheek just below the eye.
The blow cut a cash in the mans face
and 4 nocked him insensibie to the floor.
In 4 minute he was handcuffed and
helpless.
Without the assistance Of Murray and
Asmus, Patrolman Connolly would have
undoubtedly been killed and the holdup
man would have escaped

GEORGETOWN, KY, Dec. 3.-At the

| today the commonwealth put Robert
Noakes railroad conductor and labor
| leader of Rossville, ILL.,, on the witness
stand. Noakes was Jointly charged with
Taylor, Powers and Finley with being
| accessory to the assassination of Goebel
| but escaped indictment, 1t is alleged, by
| turning states evidence. Noakes testi-
fled that under the direction of Finley
and Powers he took body of men to
| Frankfort in November, 1899, while the
state election board was in session for
the purpose of intimidating that body.
He said he had instructions to see that
justice was had or to hang the COM
missioners." After reaching Frankfort
he was told by Finley to take the men
back, as Governor Bradley did not ap-
prove of the plans. The witness detailed
conversation with Powers on the tiain
near Barboursville, KY, in which he said
Powers asked him to organize a military
company and go to Frankfort, Powers
SAYING in regard to the contest then
pending that the contest will amount to
nothing, as Goebel is as good as dead"
On cross examination Noakes could not
give exact dates and other details IN
regard to these conversations. James
Howard was brought here from the state
testify for Powers. Howard is serving
a life sentence for the same crime
charged against Powers.
Witness Disappears
A sensation was caused when it be-
came known that Frank Cecil, one OF
the chief witnesses for the prosecution,
had disappeared during the right.
The prosecution asserts that the de-
Tense has run Cecil away to keep him
from testifying, while the defendants at
torneys assert that it is a trick on the
part of the prosecution to delay or stop
the trial, as Cecil is known to be one of
the strongest witnesses against Powers.
The prosecution is said to have In
formation that Cecil told friend yes

and a promise of pardon for jumping
his bond The name of this friend is

Cecil said today that he waited at
Georgetown for three weeks to be called |
upon to testify and then, despite the |
protest of the states attorney, he came
home for Thanksgiving. When he re-
turned to Georgetown Monday he said the |
upbraided him for having
left. This angered him and he imme-
diately returned here
''I will be at Frankfort in January for

get me back In Kentucky before that /
time" he said.
Cecil, who is former resident of Mid
dlesboro, KY. is under indictment on the
charge of sharing in a plot leading to the
of William Goebel, and his trial
is set for January. Cecil is employed by
