Lawrence, Kan, Feb. 22.-The
Kansas basketball team cinched the
championship of the southern section
by defeating the Washington five Sat
urday night by the score of s33 to %.
The game was rather slow and free
from spectacular work. 1t was some-

who had been expecting a fierce con-
test. The score at the end of the first
half was 16 to IA in favor of Kansas,
and in the second half this lead was
increased three more points. Both
sides made nine fouls in the game.

In a swing in peculiar manner. She

an older sister were playing about two
swings in tho rear of the house. The
swing which the unfortunate child
was endeavoring to get into was too
high from the ground for her to reach,

Council Bluffs, Aug. 11.-Skin graft

Bluffs surgeons in an effort to save
the life Of c. A. Horner. the patrolman
who was shot by "Alkah Ike" no.

killed by brother officer at Horner's,

mitted to the removal Of pieces Of skin
from their arms, to be grated on Hor-
ner's back which was badly burned by
the use Of the x-Ray in efforts to To-
cate the bullet fired by Taylor. The
operation of skin-grafting, which was
performed by DR.. Donald Macrae at
the Jennie Edmundson Memorial hos
pital. was entirely successful and it
is believed that Horner will recover.
After Horner had, in measure be-
come convalescent, the x-Ray was
used in an effort to locate the bullet.
Horners back developed bad and Sc
we're burn as the result of the use Of
the X-Rays and some time since he
was compelled to again go to the hos
pital for treatment.
The burn refused to heal and Hor-
ner's condition became 80 critical that
DR.. Macrae decided to resort to skim
grating in hope Of saving the patients
life. The first experiment was made
with skin from Horners own body. 1t
was entirely successful and rapidly be-
gan to grow in place. The burn was
so large, however, that it was consid-
erred impractical to take more skin
from Horner's body and the seven men
volunteered to furnish the needed skin
to cover the burn, about ten square
inches.

to their father that they go to Mime
sofa where their brother Will had been

unconscious that life was SO near its
close, tho his illness had extended over
many months. The father died the day
following their departure for Mime
sofa, an. the fam,'. ass unable to
locate them and recall them to attend
the funeral services.
Roy first secured work in the hay
field, but was put to heavy pitching
which he was unable to follow for any
length of time. He then went to work
in saw mill to handle lath, but was
put to handling slabs and was put on
the night shift. He had but half an
hour more to work Saturday morning,
when the end Of a slab struck him with
so much force in the pit OF the stom-
ach that ne only survived fifteen min
utes. His brother Charles came home

often the cause OF the river bed be-
