Three-Legged Goat Barred.

With fearful eyes Antonio Mateta
yesterday stood OH the dock of the
Italia Line, and waved his hand to
"Billy," his three-legged goat.
"Billy," meanwhile munched an ap-
pie and piece Of paper which one
of the crew of the Taormina, on
which he was departing from this
country, had given him, says the
Philadelphia North American.
AT last, the goat vanished from
sight, and rage mingled with grief in
Maffeta's breast. It seems that the
Italian had obtained the goat, which
came from part Of Turkey where
they grow three-legged goats. BE
intended to exhibit it in this country
as a freak. But when he got here,
he found that the importation OF
goats from Turkey, Greece OF France
is forbidden, and while Maffeta was
admitted, Billy was kept out.
Maffeta protested TO no avail. The
deportation Of his tripedal pet, he
was convinced, was. retaliation by
the Government, for the Turkish att
tacks upon American missionaries.
Anyhow, If it was the law, it was a
hard law, and ought not to be en-
forced against cripples. SO. 22-'09.,

SEDAN MAY LOSE COUNTY SEAT.

election held in Chautauqua county
to vote $4,000 for a new court house

them. The result means that an eff

wichita Commercial and Other Clubs
VIII Take Chances.

Wichita, KAN, July 3.-The Wichita
Commercial club has decided to take
chances on reopening the locker sys-
tenn This is the result of an investi-
CATION made at Topeka. The Topeka
club has refused to close it's lockers
and commended that there is no law
forbfdding a man the privilege of
drinking from his own bottle at his
own club.
The Wichita club members contend
ed that if the Topeka club was allow
ed to pursue the plan under the very
nose of the attorney general, the Wich-
tia authorities should acquiesce in the
same situation here pending a court
decision on the locker system.
THE Elk lodge of the city will also
adopt the private locker system.
Under this plan the individual can
buy no liquor at the club. He is
merely allowed to keep it there for his
own use.

''In my twenty-five years residence
| IN Kansas" once said Mr.. Robson,
''I have never known a year that did
| not make money. I stand ready to
| say thar at all times that no man who
enjoys good health and who farms
| intelligently and faithfully can help
but make a good living out Of 100
| acres of average Kansas land" Mr..
| Robson raised thousands of bushels
| of corn. but he never sold unless the
market was unusually high. He elaine ed
he could always make money out of
his corn by feeding it to cattle.
Lived in Kansas Since 1882.
Mr.. Robson was Is years old, and
was born in Scotland. He lived in
TazweH county, Illinois, until he came
to Kansas in 'S2. He has been a
farmer all his life. Mr.. Robson is a
sef-made man. He began by giving
three-quarters rent for the land,
teams and board and he received
one-quarter of the crop for his work.
OF the 5000 acres which he rented
most of it is pasture lands. About
1000 of his own and leased lands
are under cultivation: in the last few
years he has had 5000 acres in corn;
800 in alfalfa and about 700 in wheat,
oats and sorghum.
Was a Breeder of Fine Horses.
He always kept about 125 head Of
high grade Percheron horses. for
work and breeding on the farm. He
turned off about 1000 head of hogs
dIlQ 4uAO1 u 14GdQ u
cattle.
Mr.. Robison's lands are in the White
water valley. about 10 miles west of FL
Dorado, highly improved with good
buildings, u farm houses and 10 bearing
orchards. His family consists of nine
sons, five Of whom are living, and aid
in operating the farm-bright, strong,
active young men.
Held Many Positions of Trust.
Mr.. Robson was president of the State
Live Stock association; president of the
Improved Stock Breeders association,
and at one time a member Of the
board of railroad commissioners, vice
president of the State Horticultural so
ciety and president of the State bank
of EIDorado. He paid very little at
tention to politics. but was state sena-
tor from rs to '79 from Tazwen and
ed senator for unexpired term in Butler
county several years ago.
Mr.. Robson was a plain, practical
level headed man. all for utility and
nothing for show. He was often men
toned as q candidate for governor and
indeed he would have made an admir-
able one, for as man, citizen, family
man, business man and farmer he was
literally "au right"
Years ago Mr.. Robson predicted the
time would come when good Kansas
lands would be worth $75 to 500 per
acre He saw lands advance in ILL
nois from SIS to 800 and lived to see
the Same thing happen in Kansas since
he came to Kansas.
