HIS FINGER
FOR A NOSE
(By United Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, April IL
George M. Kelly of this city has a
new nose made from the middle
finger of his left hand. He lost his
nose by accident. Surgeons of the
University of California hospital
took a bone from the middle finger
of the left hand and grated it to a
spot wher the nose should be. For
weeks he lay with his hand bound
to his face.
Yesterday the surgeons decided
the bones had knit and the finger
was amputated near the hand.

A personal check for $4,000 ten
dered by M. j. Gordon. former
counsel for the Great Northern, as
a deposit in tax case brought by
the Hill road agaisnt Stevens
county, has fallen into the hands
of the grand jury.
The Stevens county officials
have learned that there is no
money behind the check, which
still stands as a legal tender ON de-
post with the treasurer of Stevens
county, while the case is on appeal
to the supreme court of the state.
1t is believed that the Great
Northern set aside the funds rep
resented by the deposit and the
claim will be made, as in other
financial transactions involving
Judge Gordon and the railroad,
that Gordon used the money for
other purposes connected with the
service of his employers. The fact
that check without funds to back
1t is on deposit In lawsuit that
requires tender of cash or its
equivalent remains to be eX-
planned, either by the Great North
ern or Gordon.
The grand jury wanted to get an
explanation from Judge f. V.
Brown, the new general western
counsel for the Great Northern,
and issued subpoena to Brown to
bring all the papers in the case to
court. Judge Brown refused to
comply with the order and a cita-
tion for contempt of court has
gone to Seattle to compel his at
tendance before Judge Huneke and
offer an explanation why she
should not be punished for con-
tempt of court.
An effort was then made yester-
day afternoon to compel A. j.
Laughon, in charge of the Great
Northern legal department in Spo-
kane, to furnish the papers and
correspondence in connection with
this Stevens county tax case, ana
he likewise refused and has been
cited to appear for contempt next
Monday.
The states Attorneys believe
that the Great Northern put up the
money involved in the $2S,000
Stevens county tender. that the
funds were used by Gordon. and
that he railroad, as in the Sparrow
case, will assume the burden of
the loss and shield Gordon.
To unquestionably establish this
condition Of things the state is
making every effort to bring evi
dence to light. Two representa-
tives Of the prosecuting attorneys
Office are out of the city today, and
when the final showdown comes
the state hopes to have the evi
dence that 1t seeks.
There were two tax cases in Ste
vens county, involving the Spokane
Falls 4 Northern branch OF the
Great Northern. In the case re
lating to the taxes of 1906 a de
post of $4,000 was put up while
the litigation was pending and the
matter was finally settled. Anoth
or suit, the one under investiga
tIon, related to the taxes for 1907
and was begun last year and Il

NO SCARCITY
Of WHEAT
(By United Press)

WASHINGTON, April ~
Secretary Wilson said today:
Reports of this department in
dictate that 143,000,000 bushels of
wheat were on hand March 10. Re.
liable statistics estimated the sup.
ply from a hundred to a hundred
and seventy million bushels. Last
years report estimated the supply
at 100000 bushels less.
There were 3i,000,000 bushels
more produced in the past year
than previously. SO it is evident
scarcity is not the cause of the
present abnormal price of wheat.

oRpHANAGE WORK DAY.
A Noble Charity That All Should
.. Give "a Helping :. Hand,


Attention is called to the concert
of action among the orphan institu-
tions of South Carolina with regard
to a special work day effort Satur-
day, September Is, next. Thornwell
orphanage, Connie Maxwell Orphan
age and Epworth Orphanage have de-
finitely planned for the success of
the day and are circulating lftsra-
ture upon the subject. We presume
that every orphan institution, OF
whatever size or under whatsoever
auspices, will be glad to have Its
friends remember it on this day.
The plan is simple enough. Let
every boy and girl, every man and
woman, young and old, devote the
income of the day to the Orphanage
of his choice. Some of the children
may pick cotton, others may gather
up old iron and sell it, some will do
odd Jobs, others will devote their
salary or..wages Of the: day to the
care of the orphans.
Coming down to the plain truth
is there any cause that warns the
cookies Of the heart, like the plea
for the fatherless? Let the people
Join in the work day effort Septem-
Der s5, and roll up big amount for
the orphans, and forward the same
to each institution as each may Sc
