iPcnnypacker and Carson Are Drawn
Into Graft Case.

4WsNNF9T ~ SuSO AhM.
The names Of former Gov. Penny
packer and former Attorney General
Hampton L. Carson were brought into
the capitol prosecutions al Harrisburg,
Pa, Friday by the testimony Of STAN
ford r. Lewis. assistant Of Architect
Joseph M. Huston. When State Treas
Qrer Berry first called attention to the
alleged capitol frauds fourteen months
ago Gov, Pennypacker directed Attor-
new General Carson to make al inves-
tigatiop OF the charges. Mr.. Carson
accordingly wrote letters to ali persona
concerned In the construction and fur
nisiins Of the big building, asking
them for information bearing on the
charges. All OF them replied, and the
attorney general made a report which
showed that no laws had been violated.
Friday Lewis, under cross examina-
ton by counsel for Snyder and Ma
thues. declared hat Architect Hus-
tons letter in the Carson inquiry was
and framed by Pennypack-
Carson and Snyder, by whom Lew
is was called to Harrisburg to discuss
the matter. Lewis said the statements
In the letter that every article of fur
had been carefully weighed
and measured by the architect before
they were delivered and paid for We're
partly true and partly misleading. He
explained h a the Huston letter vas
written to dovetail Into the letters writ
ten by other persons connected with
tho construction and equipment of the
capitol to the former attorney general.

Fire Thursday swept one whole
block on South Adams street, Peoria
ILL.,, in the principal business portion
OF the city. laid low one four-story
one three-story, and a half dozen two
story buildings, and left a loss of $780,
600. The fire started in the front OF
the Watson building, a four-story
structure, occupied by the j. McAdams
company, t%ailors; Columbia Phono-
graph company, and the w. w. Kim
ball Piano company. Every available
fire apparatus in the city was brought
into play, but the flames were famed
from the rear by a stiff breeze. The
Schleicher building, all three floors of
which We're occupied by Schleicher &
Sons, furniture dealers. was the next
building to catch fire.
In quick succession the Home Saw
ings bank Mentor, Rosenbloom &
Co.'S department store; Troop G., First
Illinois cavalry, afmory, and E. A.
Strauss, wholesale and retail cigar
dealer, were in the path OF the flames.
The flames extended half way across
the street to the Grand hotel, a four
story building, and the guests were
awakened and left their rooms prepar-
atory to leaving the building should
the necessity arise.

JUDGE HARGIs SLAIN.

by His Son,

#.HlUa ~ III, sJolt.. ~.
Former County Judge James Har-
gis. for NANNY years member OF the

accused of cemplicity in many murders
and a prominent figure in the feuds
which have disturbed Breathitt county

stantly killed In his general store at
Jackson,k Ky, Thursday afternoon by
his son, Beach Hargis. The son fired
five shots In rapid succession at his
father, who fell dead while his clerks
were waiting on customers.
The exact cause OF the murder has
not been learned, but 1t Is supposed
to have been the result OF difficulties
which have existed between father and
son for some time.
h W men are reported to have
had a quarrel several nights ago. when
the father, it is alleged. was compelled
to resort to violence to restrain his
son. Young Hargis, IT Is said, has been
drinking heavily OF late. He carae
into the store late Thursday afternoon
and was apparently under the influence.
of liquor. Judge Hargfs. it, Is said,
spoke to his son about his drinking and
a quarrel resulted. Father and son
stepped behind a counter in the store
when the son, after only a few minutes
conversation, drew a revolver and fired
five shots. Four took effect, the noted
mountain character falling dead.

LOWER COURT REVERSED.
Plaintiff Finally Beaten in an Unusual
Insurance Case.

The supreme court at Pierre re-
in the case of l.. l.. Nordness VS.. the
Mutual Cash Guaranty company, of
Sioux Falls. 1t appears that Nordness,
who was a merchant at Waubay, was
solicited for a policy of $1,000 in the
Sioux Falls company and the solicit
ing agent wrote up the policy n sent
it in to the home company. 1t was
returned byi them to Nordness with a
request for the premium u upon the
same. Nordness held it several weeks.
while he was apparently, from the tes-
-timony negotiating with an Aberdeen
company for the same amount t in
~surance, and then returned the policy
to the Sioux Falls company, saying
hat he did not want the insurance. It
was returned to him two other times
by the Sioux Falls company which in
sisted that he lar contracted for it,
and they demanded their premium.
The third time it was sent to Nordness
he received it day after his store had
burned and he at ono sent in the pre-
MUM. On learning the circumstances
the company returned the premium
and resisted payment on the policy.
The lower court gave Nordnesss judg-
ment for the amount of the policy, but
is reversed by the supreme court which
holds that there never was any insur-
ance In the case.

Hnndicrafts for Farmers.

The editor of the Craftsman in the cur
rent number proposes that the federal
government aid in bringing about a much
needed reform in the industrial system of
the United States by extending the work
of the Department of Commerce so as
to assist small farmers in developing
home arts and crafts and assist them in
finding a market for the products of such
craftsmanship. The editor takes pains to
say that in this appeal for government
recognition of handicrafts allied with ag-
riculture he is not considering the so-call-
ed ''arts and crafts movement as it APP
peals to the leisure class. What he has
in mind is practically to encourage me-
chanical industries as a means of correct
ing the evils of the factory system, doing
away with the menace of the unemployed
and relieving the congestion in our cities.
He refers to the official encouragement of
such crafts in Hungary, and to the re-
markable success resulting therefrom. He
believes that President Roosevelt has TAX
en- an important step in this direction by
his recommendation that both State and
national governments should encourage
the growth of institutional mad social
movements among farmers. 1t is not con-
templated that this development of hand
works in the home would ever take the
place of the machine, but that it would
open the door of opportunity to many in
dividuals starving for self-expression
apart from the routine of either farm
or factory. The principal field for home
crafts would seem to be in producing
sensible rugs, furniture. pottery and any
Of the things that enter into the life of
the home.
