MURDERED IN CAR
Express Messenger Was VIC
tim of RObber on Santa
Fe Train.
VARIOUS OPINIONS HELD

Newton, kas., March go. a. Bal
ley, of Kansas City, an express mes
senger of the Wells-Fargo Express
company, was murdered by a robber
on the Santa Fe train No. 115, be-
tween Florence and Newton, early
Sunday. Both safes, the local and
Through" were ransacked and at
least 81 900 in cash and some jewelry
taken. Whether this is the full
amount the robber secured is not
known.
The dead body of Messenger Bailey
was found at 4 o'clock when the train
reached Newton. 1t was stretched on
the floor of the car, the head beaten
to pulp and lying in a pool of blood.
The back of the skull was crushed and
the end of the car in which the body
was lying was spattered with blood,
The blood spatters reached the cell
ing. There was no evidence of any
struggle, the indications pointing to
the committing of the murder when
the messenger was asleep.
Two theories are held by the author
tiles. One is that the robber entered
the car unobservcd at Emporia, Strong
City or some other point along the
line. and concealed himself until a ia
vOrable opportunity to commit the
robbery came, and the other is that
Bailey admitted somebody he knew
and considered friend.
The authorities were notified as
soon as the robbery was discovered,
and within an hour posses were scour-
ing the country. A reward of 81 900
has been offered by the express COM
pany for the apprehension of the rob-
Der or robbers.

GUARDING ADAMS
Feared that Attempt viii Be
Made to Reach the Man
in Prison.
INCIDENT CAUSE

Tuleride, Colo, March 30.-As the
result of the attempt to murder Gen.
Bullley Wells, general manager of the
SmuggIer-Unio mine. at Pandora,
Sheriff Fitzpatrick is taking precau-
tons to guard the pail in which Steve
Adams, charged with the assassination
of Arthur L. Collins, Gen. Weiss pred
ecessOr, is confined.
Feeling against Adams has been in
creased, it is stated, because of the
fact that during the las, two weeks full
ly a score or more miners and others
who weree deported during the trou-
blesome days have returned TO the
district and are attempting to create
sympathy and sentiment for Adams.
About a week ago Gen. Wells re
ceived an anonymous letter threaten
ing him with death. Other threaten
ing letters are reported to have been
received by different mining compa-
MES OF the district. Following the
attempt on Gen. Wellss life more
guards have been employed and in
creased precautions are being taken.

ADVOCATE
REVIVAL METHODS
Stimulating Influences Should
Be Used in the Church
It is Said.
ARE SEVERAL PROBLEMS
QUESTION AS TO HOW TO KEEP
THE YOUTHFUL MEMBERS IN
THE RANKS ONE OF MOMENT
CHANGE OF DISCIPLINE.

Return to the revival and other slim
ulating Influences to promote the
growth of the Friends church, Is being
advocated by The American Friends,
the leading publication of the church
in this country. For many years the
church has been studying the question
how TO keep the youthful members
within the church and an effort is
made to answer it by Otto c. Berry. of
Glendale, Ohio, writing in the March
issue of the Friend. The problem is
one that has been a source of worry
to the entire denomination. 1t was
brought up for discussion at the Yearly
Meeting held in this city last year and
no doubt will arise again at the COM
ing sessions. 1t is one of especial mo-
ment as there has been a tendency
among the younger members of the
Friends church to desert it for other
denominations or cease to affiliate with
any church.
The REIMBURSEMENT of the most arbi-
trary parts of the discipline Of the
Friends church is suggested as a meth
cd that will have beneficial results for
the welfare of the organization. The
public has held the impression for
many years that the Friends church
is one of strict and severe discipline
that is uncomprOmising in its nature
The fact the church has made a growth
of but II per cent between the years
1890 and 1903 is attributed to this in
fuence to a considerable extent.

hflanthropic Sparrow~

An incident which, the writer de-
clares, raised the pugnacious sparrow
several degrees in his estimation is
described in Outing. It shows that the
sparrow has other good qualities be-
sides his sturdiness and self reliance.
For several days four or five sparrows
had visited a certain place on the roof
near my window. They always brought
food for another little fellow, who
never tried flight from the spot. The
visiting sparrows never came empty
billed. They would drop tiny morsels
of food near the little sparrow When
it began to eat the crumbs the others
set up great chirping and then few
away. After watching this for a few
days l went out on the roof and APP
preached the lone bird. 1t did not fut-
ter away from me and made no resist
ance when I picked it up. The spar
row was blind. Its eyes were covered
with q milkliks flm.

BLUE PAPER.
The Process of Making 1t Discovered
by an Accident.


"a woman" said paper maker. Gin
vented blue paper. 1t was by accident
that she did it though. Before her time
all paper was white.
"She was the wife of William Eastes,
one of the leading paper makers of
England in the eighteenth century. In
passing through the paper plant one
day she dropped a big blue bag into
vat Of pulp. tastes was a stern chap,
and so, since no one had seen the acct
dent, Mrs Eastes decided to say moth
ing about it.
The paper in the vat, which should
have been white, came out blue The
workmen were mystifed, tastes en-
ragged. Mrs. Eastes kept quiet The
upshot was that the paper was sent to
London, marked damaged to be sold
for whatever 1t would bring
But the selling agent in London
was shrewd. He saw that this blue
tinted paper was attractive. He de-
clared it to be wonderful new inven-
ton. and he sold it off like hot cakes
at double the white papers price.
Tastes soon received an order for
more of the blue paper-an order that
he and his men wasted several days
in trying TO vainly fl.
Then Mrs. tastes came forward
and told the story of the blue cloth
bag. There was no difficulty after
that in making the blue paper This
papers price remained very high, the
tastes having a monopoly in it,

OF the foreign labor element now leav-

The record shows that the exodus of

So great has been the outward rush

FIRST RECORD OF
STATE BANKS
Just Completed by R. B. OgIeS-
bee of State Auditors
Office.
MEANS MUCH TO STATE
NEEDED INFORMATION IN RE
GARD TO STATE CONCERNS HAS
NEVER BEEN COLLECTED AND
CLASSIFIED.

The first complete record of the In
diana state banks has been compiled
by r. B. OgIesbee, head of the bank
department in the office of the audi
tor of state. Heretofore the infOr-
nation in regard to state banks has
never been collected and classified
and in making up the record it was
found that there is absolutely no in
formation in the bank department in
regard to the organization and bust
ness OF many of the banks. In re-
gard to state banks, reinstatement is
made that each of the failures that has
occurred was due directly to some vio-
lation of law or the neglect of some
general and fundamental principle of
sound banking. Banks which are
prudently and honestly conducted do
not fail, or if by unusual stress, due
to a general panic, such bank is
compelled to suspend, the depositOrs
will suffer only the inconvenience of
brief pOstponement and in the end
will be paid in full"
The record which has been made
up by Mr.. Oglesbee will show when
each bank was Incorporated. whether
or not it is now in existence and if
not, what disposition has been made OF
its business and will Indicate in just
what books the record of the bank in
detail may be found. There is sell
dom a day in the Auditors office that
as to the business of some
state bank is not needed and the new
record will be of inestinable value.
The record shows some interesting
facts in regard to state banks.

Markets and Fairs In Churchynrds In
Early England.
1t may seAely be asserted that from
the time OF the Conqueror 00661OSO
Sunday traGing received much atten-
ton. IN early ages markets and fairs
were held on Sundays and frequently
in the churchyards.
In 1905 the nhabitants of Cocker
mouth presented a petition to parlia-
ment, rs their market was fast declin-
ing through the iuha bitants of Cros-
thwaite dealing in corn. flour, beans,
flesh, fish, at their church on Sundays
and that thereby they We're unable to
pay their tolls to the king edward -.
An order was issued for closing the
church market at Crosthwaite.
At Bradford, Yorkshire, during the
same reign the market was held on a
Sunday, doubtless in the churchyard.
The toll yielded f3 per annum.
In 1856 a statute was passed enact
ing that henceforth neither fairs nor
markets be held in churchyards, for
the honor of the church.
In 1912 market was granted to the
town of Sedgefleld, Durham, to be held
on a Friday, but was soon changed to
Sunday.
In 1867 the archbishops of Canter-
bury and York delivered charges di-
recting, among other things, that I'VE
firmly forbid any one to keep q mar
