from the Washington Herald.
The theory Of socialism as ap-
piled in practice has received a
signal rebuff in New Zealand.
The purpose there was to have
tke government provide work
for ali wage earners who could
mot find private employment
Accordingly the state has hired
surplus labor in building COVER
meat railways, opening an al
farming public lands, IA d in
other public works But in the
meantime the public revenues
have decreased and the funds
available for the distribution Of
wages have dropped this year
from $4,000, 900 to 100000.
simultaneously the funds at
hand for all other departments
Of the insular government have
decreased. The situation h a
become such that one seventh OF
the population OF New Zealand IS
dependent upon tn e state for
work Hence suddenly it has
+ become pre- eminentiy land of
the unemployed.
Perhsps il is not surprising
that the remedy proposed for
4 this collapse Of socialism is that
To be bolstered by more socialism.
That would be a political applica
tion OF homeopathy 10 the state
that fares il It's now propos
ed that the government shall 10
sure against nonemployment; ia
other words, that il shall provide
a pension for those out OF work.
It may seem assumed that this
bis the deliberately chosen policy
of the government, since the
plan is advocated hy the minister
of finance. IL is also suggested
that a further insular loan be
aoated ia the London market ia
order 70 meet the demand for
work. The present Indebted
ness of New Zealann Is $3.50 per
capim. the annual interest
charges being approximately $40
for each man, woman and child.
There is opposition 10 the colony
To this scheme, and viii he Dc.

Met Death In Salt Mint.

lsworth.-Frank Bochi, aged 25
years and unmarried. was killed in
the Crystal salt mine at Annapolis.
The men were at work blasting out
salt and had just dislodged a huge
block weighing number of tons.
While they were at work clearing
away the smaller pieces, preparatory
to breaking up the big chunk. the
great mass fell over on them, and
Bocchi was caught and crushed to
death. Bocchis head and sides were
crushed and he died instantly. The
body was sent to Kansas City, where
the dead man has relatives.
The Crystal mine is a comparative
ly new one and 1t has had an unfor-
tunate record. About year ago a
man was killed in 1t when the cage
dropped.

Playground Opening a Success.

Leavenworth.-The opening of the
public playground was decided sue
cess and the large crowd present
showed the keen interest being taken
by the general public. The Civic
league deserves a great deal Of credit
and praise for securing such an at
traction for the children and especial
commentator belongs to Mrs. e. A.
Blanpied and her committee of work
ers who were the more active in their
endeavors. Probably $50 people at
tended the opening, and the children
were widely enthusiastic. Mr.. Gill
bert, secretary of the Greater Leav-
enworth club, gave an excellent talk
on "Civics," and Rev. H. Z. Wark de-
livered an able address on "Ath-
letics" During the evening the la
dies realized a neat little sum by
selling five gallons of ice cream in
cones.

One on Uncle Joe.

On his trips to New York Uncle Joe
usually stops at the Hotel Aston. Re-
Gently while in New York he took a
room at the Knickerbocker. After
walking up and down Broadway in the
glare of the white lights for an hour
or two the speaker decided to retire
and walked into the Aston. When the
clerk asked him to register, Uncle Joe
nonchalantly announced that he had
already registered. A search was
made by those behind the desks, but
It was unavailing Firmly the clerk,
who didn't happen to recognize his
distinguished visitor, even after he
had told him his name, informed Mr..
Cannon that he was mistaken-that
he hadn't registered. Uncle Joe can
say things on occasion and this was
an occasion. He INDUCED in some very
naughty language.
"Dern your hotel, I'll go to the
Knickerbocker," he said. Gimme my
grip"
The word Knickerbocker arrested
his thought and his free flow of Ian
guage. Uncle Joe came to.
Damned If l amt getting old and
forgetful." he murmured as the turn
stile door swung behind him.-Cin.

Farmers Wife Ia Burned to Death

Delphos.-Mrs. Charles Parks, the
23-year-old wife of farmer living four
miles west of this place, was SO badly
burned that she died a few hours la
ter after suffering intense agony. She
had just finished the weeks ironing
and left the kitchen for a few min
utes and returning found the room
filled with flames from the gasoline
stove, which had exploded.
She escaped from the flaming room
but returned to save her two children,
aged and years, when her cloth
ing became ignited. She had taken
one of the children to a place of safe
ty and received her injuries when she
returned for the second, whom she
also saved. The home was saved by
neighbors, who appeared on the
scene too late to save the life of Mrs.
Parks.

Interurban Cut OFF Nearly Done.

Coffeyville.-The people of this
city and Independence will be glad to
know that the "cut off" on the inter-
urban line is about completed. The
last rails were laid Saturday and the
Union Traction Co. expect to run
cars over the line within ten days.
This change in track will lessen the
time between this city and Independ-
ence about fifteen minutes. The old
track was laid in round about way
to avoid the necessity of crossing a
farm at that time, but with the more
direct route the track Is shortened al
most one mile.
The old schedule provided for the
run to Independence in one hour and
fifteen minutes, but with the high
speed cars and the lesser distance the
trip will now be made in trifle less
time than one hour. This reduction
of time means great thing for both
the city and the county seat; it will
facilitate business between the two
points and will no doubt increase the
freight business of the interurban
line.
The shorter time will be of infinite
benefit to the many persons who daily
make the trip for both pleasure and
business.

TO SHOW HOW TO
MAKE ALFALFA MEAL

Wichita.-The wonderful growth of
the industry Of grinding alfalfa into
meal, this concentrating its marvel
Gus feed values, the mixing of 1t with
other cereal products, producing the
most perfect animal ration ever
known in the world, will be shown in
graphic manner by alfalfa millers and
manufacturers from many sections at
the Peerless Prophets Festival here
September 20-25.
The exhibition will be housed in an
immense and unique Alfalfa Bunga-
low" the wall of which will be built
of baled hay from many OF the most
prominent alfalfa producing sections
of the alfalfa belt. This alone will
prove an interesting exhibit
1t is expected that most Of the mil
lers Of alfalfa throughout the nation
will be represented with exhibits Of
their meal and the mixers or makers
of balanced rations will have attrac-
tive and instructive exhibits Of pro-
ducts.
Space will be devoted to the use OF
the manufacturers of alfalfa milling
machinery, that alfalfa producing Sec
lions may learn of the various meth
DDS Of producing this great feed stuff.
The National Millers Association
will hold it's annual meeting in Wich-
tia during the same week. At this
meeting the remarkable feeding val
ues of alfalfa meal will be demon
strated from scientific experiment
and from practical tests made by con-
sumers in various classes of animal
industry.
This exhibition and attendant
meeting will be Of large Importance,
not only to the millers and manufac-
turers OF alfalfa meal and its mix
lures, but to all feeders of animals
whether for draft, or meat, or milk.

Walter Scott Wrote II?

It is rather amusing to find in the
Spectator an inquiry as to a very COM
mon phrase which that learned jour-
nal cannot answer. The Spectator
quoted without question the remark:
1.-THE more 1 know Of men the more
like dogs" as attributed by the
Countess Martinengo Cesaresco to
Nine. de Stael. OF course, Nine. de
Stael never said anything so straight
forward as that. How could any one
with such a name as Martinengo
Casaresco know English? For the
phrase was original with Walter Scott.
and 1t Is to be found in Lockhart's
biography-one of the best biograph-
les ever written. The sentiment is
not at all exclusive; it has often been
expressed. OF late years it has been
attributed to Mark Twain and would
be characteristic. Also it may have
been as original with him as with
Scott. Both the men knew men and
dogs, and must have had the same
relative estimate.-Springfeld Repub.
lican.

Edward, having been refused an

mark about the insufficiency of his

the aunt whom he was visiting. This
is luncheon. You don't eat dinner in
the middle of the day. You eat that
at night" The next day the aunt, be-
ing anxious to know if Edward had
assimilated his lesson of the day be-
fore, said: Edward, can you tell
me now the difference between dinner
and luncheon?" you bet can," said
Edward, very promptly. Lunch is
the meal where you don't get enough

There was some discussion as to the
uropriety Of choosing the bear rather
than the beaver, bU, the weight OF

LAST OF OLD STAGE COACH
Historic Vehicle That Carried Passen-
gers and Mails Across the
Plains Is No More.

After standing in the alley west of
Pattersons livery stable since 1873
the stage coach Sam Houston was
torn to pieces yesterday and the
timber cast in a waste heap. The
Sam Houston was the victim of city
legislation, it having been ordered
moved from the alley, but being in
such dilapidated condition it could
not be moved. The coach was torn
to pieces and another relic of the
early Texas days has passed into his
tory.
If the old stage coach could talk
It could tell of some hair-raising
events that would probably make the
blood and thunder" stories look like
80 cents Mex. 1t made it's first run
between Austin and Brennan in the
year 1S41, when Texas was filled with
Indians and bad men. Six and eight
mules were driven to the old coach,
six being driven in good weather and
eight in muddy weather.
In its day the Sam Houston was
the scene of many a fight and holdup
The wood was marked in numerous
places by bullet holes, which were all
that remained in history of many of
the fights in which the coach was the
center of battle. Guards were always
carried along with the coach in the
early days to prevent Indian attacks
and holdups by bad men who wanted
to rob the mail.
Some time ago movement was
started to have the Sam Houston pre-
served as historic relic of early
Texas, but the move failed to bear
fruit and now it is too late.
The Sam Houston made its last run
from San Antonio to Austin in 1873.
1t was abandoned and had to get out
of the way, for the railroad took its
place, and now it had to be taken out
of the alley because 1t was deemed I'M
slightly and in the way.-Austin
Statesman.

Safety in Storm.

Nervous people will be interested in
some advice given by an eminent cleo
trician as to the safest position one
can occupy during a thunderstorm.
"a person reclining on sofa or bed
at a distance from all the walls of the
room could scarcely suffer injury" he
says, "even in a house struck by light
ming, but one lying on bed of brass
or iron, the head of which is sur
mounted by an erection supporting
curtains would have almost absolute
security. Such a bedsted forms the
most complete lightning protector
which could well be devised"

THREE REASONS
Each with Two Legs and Ten Fingers.

A Boston woman who is a fond
mother writes an amusing article
about her experience feeding her boys.
Among other things she says:
Three chubby, rosy-cheeked boys.
Rob, Jack and Dick, aged 6, and
years respectively, are three of our
reasons for using and recommending the
food, Grape-Nuts, for these youngsters
have been fed on Grape-Nuts since in
fancy, and often between meals when
other children would have been given
candy.
81 gave package of Grape-Nuts to
a neighbor whose year old child was
a weakened little thing, i'll half the
time. The little tot ate the Grape
Nuts and cream greedily and the moth
er continued the good work, and it
was not long before a truly wonderful
change manifested itself in the child's
face and body. The results were re-
markable, even for Grape-Nuts.
Both husband and l use Grape
Nuts every day and keep strong and
well and have three of the finest,
healthiest boys you can find in days
march"
Many mothers instead of destroying
the children's stomachs with candy
and cake give the youngsters a hand
full Of Grape-Nuts when they are beg
ging for something in the way Of
sweets. The result Is soon shown in
greatly increased health, strength and
mental activity.
There's a Reason"
Look in pkgs. for the famous little
book, 1.-THE Road to Wellville."

one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.
