MIR. BowsER,s THEORIES.
They Don't Work as Far as Tramps
Are Concerned.

Mr.. and Mrs. Bowser had finished
dinner and taken seat on the front
steps to enjoy the evening air, when
tramp passed along the walk and look
ed hard at the house. Both noticed
him, and Mrs. BoWSer said:
There's a tramp who ought to be ar
rested. He was at the door three Diff
ferent times today, and the last time
he was very impudent. If there had
been policeman around should nave
given him in charge
And should have been very much
displeased with you,'' replied Mr.. Bow
SER You can see for yourself that he
looks ill. He limps. He has a wan and
discouraged look. No doubt he feels
that every mans hand is against him.
He is doubtless hungry and tired, and
he must make his bed in the street to-
night. 1 can't understand why you are
so hard-hearted about your fellow
mortals''
II offered to pay him for cutting the
grass, but he refused to work.
Then I should say, that he was not
able to. He may have rupture or be
victim of consumption
II should sooner think he was a VIC
tim of laziness."

Badger company. The Pacific Express
company informs the board that 1t is
investigating the situation, and Will
probably give the desired service.
Kansas City is not the only town
where people are demanding better ex-
press deliveries. In Topeka the ex-
press companies refuse to deliver
ackages except within certain limits
close to the business portion OF the
city The great majority of people
have to go to the express offices TO
get their packages.
Frank Ryan, railroad commissioner
from Leavenworth, says: I'VE nave
just the same sort of trouble over IN
Leavenworth. The express companies
deliver packages only close TO the
busine ss center. and many people
think the boundaries should be ex-
tended"
There is also a good deal of com
plant about the rates charged by ex-
press companies. There is 10 doubt
that the rates are extremely high on
almost all classes of freight. Books
can be shipped at a low rate, to com
pete with the pCstoffiCe rate.

GRAFTERS MAY ESCAPE.

at San Francisco.

san francisco, Cal, July 27.-Whether
or not the indictments returned by the
present grand jury are valid, and wheth-
er that body has any legal existence since
FEBRUARY, 1907. were seriously question
ed IN decision handed down by Judge
carroll Cook, of the superior court yes
terday afternoon and the supreme court
or California will, within the next few
days, be asked to decide the matter.
The decision was the outcome of the
action of the attorneys for men under
indictment in connection with the recent
strike riots, appearing before Judge
Cook and demurring to the indictment,
arguing that as the present grand jury
has continued in service after a new
panel had been drawn in the office of
the clerk and placed on file, the term of
service of the old body expired and
that they were no longer part of the
machinery of the court and had no pow
er as an inquisitorial body. 1t was this
question that Judge Cook passed up to
the supreme court. Some OF those under
indictment who will be set free by
favorable decision from the supreme
court are:

Glass. Patrick Calhoun, William M. Abb

ion yesterday instructed the defendants

Free Attraction to Be Varied During
Coming Week.

Manager F. C. Kelly, Of vinewood
park, has decided to try moving pic
lures as an attraction next week In lieu
of feature acts such as have been on
the boards each week this season. The
acts have been the best that money
could get but there has been some COM
plant that they do not last long
enough as many of them have been of
the nature of the leap of death made
Diavolo for the last time this evening.
The pictures which are to be given
are guaranteed to be new and the best
than money can get. One of them
which should be feature will show the
big parade given by the Elks in Phila-
delphia last week when hundreds of the
members in line, were compelled to
drop out on account of the excessive
heat. The other will illustrate the
Gypsies' revenge and is said to be one
of the best films on the market. The
exhibition will take place each evening
from the stage opposite the penny ar
cade gallery and as each film is 1000
feet in length the entertainment will
last over half an hour.

DEGRADES COPPER.
London Chemist Reports an ImpOr-
tant Scientific Discovery.

London, July 27.-Sir William
Ramsey, the distinguished chemist,
has promised to communicate in writ
ing in the near future to the chemical
society the results of his researches
into radium emanations. In TINS
connection the announcement is made
that he has succeeded in degrading
copper to the first member OF It's
family, that is, lithium.
The Lancet today says the discov-
cry marks an epoch in the history OF
chemical science and believes 1t is
realization of the transmutation or
metals
The announcement is likely to re-
awaken the discussion of the trans
mutation of elements which ragged a
year or so ago, when several promi-
nent scientists repudiated the trans
mutation idea while others just as
strongly supported it.
Sir William Ramsey himself mod
estly disclaims ability to transmute
elements, but he believes that the re-
suit of his degradation of copper Will
be of far reaching Importance.
