Gov. Wilson's Welcome.

81 could not help thinking while
your president was speaking that
Kentuckys excuse for a Governor
is here in person. 1t is largely by
your grace that l am permitted to be
here and welcome you as Governor.
You made it unanimous and I do not
forget 1 am glad to be able to well
come you in the spirit, not of spe-
cial friendship, but one that regards
the man for what he does and can do.
81 have no use for the professional
Negro, the one who makes his way
by being a Negro; l have no more use
for him than I have for a professional
Irishman or a professional German
or a professional Methodist. l have
cared about this problem not as a spe-
cial friend, but as a lover of liberty
who wants every man to have a fair
chance. You who have accomplished
SO much go on-grow strong and
teach your people"

Cheese Factory to PIalnvlew.

Plainvlew News: Plainview is GO
ing to have a cheese factory after
January that will be credit to the
town and provide a good market for
cream and milk, second to none, all
the year round. Z. l.. Wyman of
Bristow, Neb, a practical and expert
enced cheese man, has been in town
several times of late and this week
closed n deal with John Cox, whereby,
he secures the equipment and good
will formerly belonging to Mr.. Cox,
and about the first of the year will
begin the operation of frst.class
cheese factory in the old creamery
building down near the Burlington de-
pot. Mr.. Wyman expects to operate
about half dozen cheese factories
on the Bonesteel line the coming year
and this will enable him to make his
shipments to the market in car load
lots. He was formerly at Bristow.
This enterprise without doubt means
much to Plainview and the farmers in
this vicinity.

and Johnson still coming, | think it is
about an even break, with the negro
having chance to win on strength
and stamina. I'll admit that JEFF is
improving in his condition steadily,
but he will have to be at his best to
win back the title.
"If Jeffries can stand the pace and
can reach the negro with his old-time
body blows, he'll win; but if Johnson
can stand him off for twenty rounds,
| think the boilermaker will gradually
tire, and the negro will finally put
him away. In short, Jeff will have to
win inside of twenty rounds or not at
all"

THE CORPSE WAS DRY, TOO.
When He Sat up to Drink, the Grave
Robbers Fled.


Pleasant Hill, Mo-, Dec. 11.-When
Tom Caywood, farmer near Glen
wood, Mo-, went to Glenwood several
days ago he Immediately hunted up
his old friend, John Dodson, a big
loose-j ointed, genial Irishman.
John" said Tom, I'm here to get
my half of that money"-and thereon
hangs story:
One November night in 1904, Cay
wood and Dodson started from Glen
wood afoot for their homes, eight
miles distant. Their way led past
Bethel cemetery and as they drew
near the place they heard voices. Two
men were busy over a grave, and as
they worked they talked in subdued
tones.
Caywood and Dodson concealed
themselves in the brush at the road
side to see what was going on, as they
suspected it was a case of grave rob-
bling.
Carrying a body the two men pres
emily emerged from the graveyard
They laid the body in the wagon, COW
cred it with canvas and returned to
fill the grave and erase the evidences
of their crime. Dodson and Caywood
then crept from the brush, after a
whispered consultation, carefully re-
moved the body from the wagon and
deposited it in fence corner. Dodson
crawled into the wagon and covered
himself with the canvas.
The robbers returned and started
north, Caywood following. After drlv'
ing a mile sthey began to feel chilled
as a result of their hard labor and
perspiration and one pulled big bot
tie and proposed drink The other
man took the bottle and said:
Lets give the stiff drink"
Dodson slowly raised himself and II
fitting tone of voice remarked
"Well, | don't care If I do"
With a concerted yell of horror the
grave robbers bolted, fleeing across
field and down through the timber
Caywood soon arrived, and it was
agreed that Dodson should take pos
session of the wagon and team, which
he did, after the body had been care
fully reinforced.
Dodson and Caywood said nothing
about the affair, but decided that they
would hold the wagon and team five
years and then sell the outfit If M
one claimed it. OF course, no claiman
appeared, and the five years expired
few days ago, Caywood was OF
hand promptly, the outfit was sold To-
5000 and the compact carried out.

SToVAiNE IN A HARD TEST.
The First Operation Above the Heart
Performed by Jonnesco.

New York, Dec. 11.-A decisive test
of the claims made by DR.. Thomas
Jonnesco of Roumania. for the eff
cacy of the combination anaesthetic
of stovaine and strychnine, which
causes temporary paralysis in different
parts of the body when injected into
the spine, was given at the New York
POSTGRADUATE hospital. A man suffer
ing from heart disease and epilepsy
was successfully operated on for a
tumor of the skull. Although urged
by his secretary, Prince G. Sutzo, not
to take the risk incident to the opera
ton, DR.. Jonnesco, after deliberate
consideration, told DR.. Robert T. Nor
ris, who performed the surgical opera
ton, to proceed.
ut was one of the severest tests
that could have been given Doctor
Jonnesco's claim" Doctor Morris said
after the tumor was removed and the
only ill effects were on the respira
tory centers, but that condition soon
wore off and the patient, so far as
the operation is concerned, will re
cover"
Doctor Jonnesco stood close to the
operating table and wore a slightly
worried look when the patient tried to
struggle from the table when Doctor
Morris was chiseling a hole through
the first plate of the skull at the
upper part of the forehead. The mar
was the only one of four patients
operated on who caused any trouble
and at one time it required six doc
tors and nurses to hold him. Docto
Morris at first expressed the opinion
that the patient was displaying signs
of epilepsy, but as the operation pro
crossed he discovered the true cause
| which was that the lungs had beef
affected.
The man was about 33 years OF ag'
and a foreigner 1t appeared for ;
time as If the anaesthetic might hav'
a fatal effect, but before the woun'
was sewed up the patient had becom
quiet. More than one hundred note'
physicians and medical students gath
cred at the hospital to witness tn
demonstration by Doctor Jonnesco.
II was known that he would for tn
first time In America, attempt al
operation at q point situated above
mans heart. The previous operation
were at points below the heart.

"BIG TIM" HOLDS THE MONEY.
New York Man Stakeholder for the
Jeffries-Johnson Fiqht.


Jeffries-Johnson Fight.
New York, Dec. 11.-"Big Tim" Sui
Ivan was made final stakeholder for
the Jeffries-Johnson fight and a total
of $4,000 was turned over to him.
Gleason, Richard, Little, Berger and
several friends met in Gleasons room
at the Knickerbocker hotel and it
wasn't a quiet meeting at that. All
hands Joined in the wrangle over the
question of who was the proper person
to handle the largest amount ever put
up for fight. John Clark of San Fran
cisco was first spoken of and there was
a lively skirmish over his being made
the banker of the contest. Then Long
Tom" Williams, the race track man of
California, was named and it seemed
for a time that he would be selected.
When the debate was hottest some
one suggested the name of big Tim"
After more talk and then a whole lot
more, the managers for both men and
the promoters as well agree that big
Tim" Sullivan should be the big mogul
of the money.
TEX" Richard made it certain that
all concerned should know Sullivan's
duties in the matter. Sullivan is to
be the judge and jury alike and If in
his opinion there is the slightest sus-
picion of crookedness on the part of
either man, the money is to be re-
turned to the promoters. the fighters
FORGETTING $4,000 apiece, the amount
each has up at present. Sullivan will
also be instructed to see that the
money is paid off at the rate of 70 per
cent to the winner and 20 per cent
to the loser.
During the powwow Eddie Graney
sat to one side and listened to the
spellbinders arguing over the names
of their friends. After Sullivan had
I been elected to the important post of
coin carrier, Richard turned and asked
Graney if he wouldn't act as referee.
81 would like to have you the third
man and if you will consent to act,
| will use every persuasion on the
fighters that / can to make you judge
of their contest"
81 don't want to act, Tex" remark
ed Graney, in reply. 81 am through
with refereeing and everybody knows
it. I have other things to attend to-"
Richard insisted for some time,
pointing out the fact that it would
equalize matters, now that an East
erner had been made the man of the
funds.
Charley White was also on hand and
there is but little doubt that he will
try for the job. The matter of referee
ing the fight seems to he between
Welsh, Smith, White and Graney. Joe
Humphrey has sent in his bid for the
announcing job. If the fight goes to
all interest in the job in favor of the
of introducing the gladiators. Hum
phrey announces that he will waive
all interestin the job in favor of the
veteran, Billy Jordan, in the event Of
the fight going to California.
