TO HURRY TO new YORK
Mrs. Tngley Abandons European
Tour to Come to Sick Brother.

New York, Oct. S.-Mrs. Katherine
Tingley, head of Universal Brother
hood, an organization of Theosophists,
has cut short her tour of evangelization
in foreign countries and will hasten to
New York, according to a statement
published today, in an endeavor to
reach the bedside of her brother, Jas.
Wescott and become reconciled to
him before his death
Mr.. WeScott, who is i'll of pneu-
monia, has long been a resident of
this city where he acquired a fortune.
But few persons knew that he and
Mrs. Tingley were sister and brother.
1t is stated that the two parted nearly
25 years ago and that no communica-
ton has since passed between them.
Mutual friends, however. have now
notified Mrs Tingley of the critical
illness and proba BILE approaching
death of her brother, and she has in
dicated that she will come TO him.

Much Carelessness Reported on the
Memphis Trip. az

Memphis. Tenn, Oct. S.-United States
inspectors are investigating the conduct
of several masters who plotted vessels
down the river from st. Louis in the
fot1l1a that accompanied the president
to Memphis. The collector of customs
of this port fined the Fred Hartweg 500
for leaving here without notifying the
inspectors or masters. Clarence Nichols,
its pilot has been suspended for six
months by order of the president.
Charges have also been filed against the
polit and the engineer in charge of the
United States boat Titan and against
the master and pilot of the Wash Hon
spell, and the inspectors are collecting
testimony in these cases. The Titan al
most rammed the Mississippi and had
to be run into the bank to prevent an
accident. The Honspe1l refused to an
swer signals from the Titan while they
were on the way up the river to meet
the presidents flotil1a at Island No. 40.
The handling of these boats is said to
have been so reckless that accidents
were narrowly averted.

AT THE THEATERS.

A vaudeville show, which will aver
age up with any of them, is provided
by the bill at the Majestic for this
week. And there are some numbers
on it which are a good deal above the
average. One of these is the novelty
double wire act which is put on by
1.-The Alpine Family of Four. This
act is really a whole show in itself and
one of those shows which is well
worth seeing. Among the other good
acts on the bill are those presented
by Jeaneatte Adler and her pickanin-
MES in a singing, dancing and piano
act; the Trillers, in rag pictures; the
Three Westons, who are rightly called
the musical queens; Eleanor Batch, a
soprano soloist of much merit and
Phil W. and Bette Peters in a COM
edy sketch. Karl HunnueH, who
grows in favor weekly as an illustrated
song singer. has a good song and the
moving pictures are up to their usual
high standard.
Owing to the widespread interest
and discussion brought about by the
edy sketch; Karl HummeH, who
marry the girl?" the Chicago Post,
during Mr.. Stuart's return engage
ment in that city offered prize of one
hundred dollars for the best essay in
argument for or against the Indian
marrying Dorothy Nelson. a white
girl, and out of the five thousand an
swers received, more than eighty-five
per cent agreed with the authors end
ing of the play, namely, that the son
of an Indian chief should not marry
outside of his own race. This is the
play which comes to the Grand next
Sunday and Monday and which in all
probability will prove the big theatre
cal event of the season.
Cyril Scott, the star in Edward
Peple's comedy success, 1.-The Prince
Chap, which will be seen at the
Grand on Oct. 16, is not only an ex-
cellent actor but one of the cleverest
bowlers in the United States. In Lon
don, England, where he spent his boy
hood, he acquired his taste for ath-
letics in every form, but 1t was not
until he had become a full-fiedged
actor in the United States that he be-
came interested in bowling and
achieved such supremacy that the best
bowlers in New York feared to meet
him in match games. German friends
of Scott, who dearly love the game
that Henrik Hudson could play so
well, have endeavored to prove the
star a German, saying that he could
not bowl so we'll if he were an Eng
lishman, and in writing to him in their
humorous way, they address him as
''Mr. Cyril Skat."
Capacity houses are the order for
this week at the Olympic where one Of
the best popular priced vaudeville
shows which has been seen in this city
is on the boards. One of the real
features of the bill, as 1t would be of
any other vaudeville bill, Is the act
presented by 1.-THE Two and One Half
Casads'. The work Of 'the one-half"
is more than entertaining.

POLLOCK SETTLES 1T.
Says Kaw Rivers Width Must Be an
Even 900 Feet.

Kansas City, Kan, Oct. s.-The Kaw
river channel controversy is settled. Six
hundred feet from the mouth to the
Fifth street bridge is to be the new
width of the stream. Tired of the legal
talk that has dragged the case through
the courts ever since the Kaw valley
drainage board was appointed after the
flood of 1903, Judge John G. Pollock OF
the federal court ended it all last even
ing.
1t was a surprise to the lawyers. They
were present in punches in the federal
court. Five railroads, the stock yards
company and the drainage board were
represented. They were already for
three days argument on the adoption
or rejection of the report of Charles
Blood Smith, special master in the Kaw
river suits. But Judge Pollock didn't
even let them start. Leaning forward
and speaking earnestly, he said:
Now, gentlemen, 1 think this mat
ter has gone far enough. The special
master will at once draw up a. decree
establishing the width of the Kaw river
at 500 feet. from it's mouth to the
Fifth street bridge This must be done
at once. as 1 want to sign II before L
leave the city,
Just as soon as they could recover
from the shock the attorneys for the
corporations and the drainage board
were on their feet, either to protest 1r
to except to his ruling, but Judge Pol
lock went on.
and" he said, eff the corporations
can't agree as to what land should be
taken to widen the river to meet flood
conditions, I'll appoint engineers to
settle that question"
Judge Pollock then established fed
eraI supervision over the drainage
board by retaining the right to audit
it's accounts in the future.
The board has been contending for
a 734 foot channel. Judge Pollock
said this was too wide at present, and
went further than the master in estab-
fishing the width at 500 feet.
''I will wait no longer on this mat
ter" he said. 1--WE will take what Land
we must have to make it 500 feet ut
once, no matter whose land it is. The
i'm provement of this river must begin
without further delay.
Judge Pollock ordered that the issue
of bonds to build bikes be held legal
and that low bridges be raised so as
not to form dams in time of floods.
1t was the expressed belief last night
among all interested that Judge Pol
locks order would result in the i'm
proving and widening of the river as
soon as it is possible to do SO. By his
decision the drainage board will have
power at once to issue 100000 Of
bonds for the work. These bonds were
voted, but the corporations whose LAND
holdings will be taken brought suit to
have the issue declared invalid.

NOTES ON FEEDING.
Values Of Different Foods and What
" Should Be Fed.

Twenty-Five cows require IS tons of
silage to carry them through the sea-
son. If fed during the summer, an
added ton to the COW is necessary.
While sorghum fodder is much rel
ished by cows still it will not COM
pare with clover hay. The former
contains but 1.5 pounds of protein to
100 pounds, the latter 6.8.
Skim milk, when not diluted with
water. has very narrow ,nutritive
ratio 1t should mot be used as an
exclusive diet for the brood sows, or.
as for that matter, swine of any
kind. 49, ..,'
Oats at say, 35 cents per bushel,
cost more after grinding than bran
at $23 per ton, though they are not
worth more for feeding purposes.
They would, however, be a good com.
bination with one-third peas.
Mixing corn and oats in equal parts,
feeding fresh COWS about eight pounds
per day, with all the hay each can
eat, and mess of roots two or
three times a week make a good ra-
ton. ="
No one would expect to keep up a
.EardWorking horse on cornstalks or
oat straw. The milking cow expends
energy just as certainly as horse
that is working. Wherefore though
she may relish little straw and the
like now and then, she should not
be compelled to seek such material
for maintenance or for the production
of milk and butter.
