PIANOS AT A DISCOUNT
OF 20 TO 40 PER CENT.

When Lyon & Healy of Chicago
started in to rebuild their big es-
tablishment the entire piano trade
of the United States wondered what
Lyon & Healy could do with their
vast collection of fine instruments,
for these were no cheap factory
pianos, but pianos Of makes of the
highest reputation. What Lyon
& Healy have done is to mark pia-
nos, hundreds of them. at a discount
of 20 to 40 per cent. The response
upon the part of the public is mar
velous. .
If you know the names of good
standard makes Of pianos and the
price always paid, you will need no
second invitation to write to Lyon
& Healy, 10 Adams street, Chicago,
for lists and terms. For you can
secure a genuine $500 upright for
$3.50. or other bargains in proper
tion.
Lyon & Healy give their own
guarantee with every one of these
pianos. Nothing like this oppor-
tunity has ever been given to mu-
sic teachers, students and music
lovers heretofore.

ELOPED WITH
A WOMAN OF
A MILLION
Former Willmar Mans MARRIAGE
TOa Denver HeireSS Creates
A Biz Sensation Here.

Minneapolis friends Of Lou"
May, formerly yardmaster at Will
mar and we'll known among the
Shriners and Elks of this city, have
just learned that he entered the
ranks of the millionaires last sum-
mer by becoming the husband of
Mrs. Emma Nuckholls of Pueblo,
Co.., with whom he eloped.
The Shriners are particularly in
terested because Mr.. May is men,
Der of Zuhrah temple, and his COM
bined elopement and wedding tour
was disguised as an automobile trip
to attend the imperial council of
the Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine, at
Minneapolis, last July.
Those who met Mr.. May last sum-
mer marveled much at the change
that apparently had come over their
friends circumstances. When he
said that he had come all the way
to Minneapolis from Pueblo in a
touring car, which he confessed was
his own, Minneapolis friends simp-
ly gasped!a
MIR. Mays friends say that he
was most reticent with reference to
his companions on the long auto
tour, that he did not bring them
around to meet his Minneapolis
friends, did not even mention their
names.
There is no mystery about Mr..
May now. A dispatch from Pueblo
conveys the information that Mr..
May and Mrs. Nuckholls were mar.
ried secretly last summer after an
elopenlent from that city. Mrs.
Nuckholls has a million dollars in
her own right in consequence OF
surviving her first husband, the late
Mr.. Tolle, a we'll known cattle king.
Afterward she married Emmett
Nuckholls, a millionaire packer
from whom she recently was d.
vorced.
MIR. May was the Great Northern
agent and yardmaster at Willmal
for several years. While there, HI
became a member of Zuhrah temple
and was frequent participant O.
its social affairs. He was also al
ardent Elk and organized a lodg,
at Willmar, becoming eventual.
the exalted ruler. About two year
ago he went west to visit his moth
er at Salt Lake City. He obtaine,
a position as yardmaster at Puebl
and concluded to remain in tn
west. He did not forget Mime
sofa, however, for he retained hi
membership in the local temple 0
the Shrine and made Minneapoli
his destination in his romantic au
tomobile tour. Minneapolis Jour

Cannon Made of Glass.

One of the last things in the world, says a writer in the March Strand Magazine. which one would expect the glassworker to create would be a can non yet Messrs. Thomas Webb and Sons, of Stourbridge, England. re- gently built two cannons out of the finest cut glass. The guns weigh, with their Timber, forty pounds each and measure twenty-four inches In length. They wheel easily and move on their trunnions like ordinary cannon. The axle-tree and bearings are of orna- mental brass. The creations may claim to be of some historic interest in that they are exact models of the famous ordnance with which Major General Baden-Powell successfully de tended Mafeking. The old cannon was dug up in that place during the siege. and investigation has since shown that this old cannon was cast in Stafford shire. at an iron works within 10 min utes' walk of the glass makers estab- hshment During the siege the gun was known as The Lord Nelson" and skipping Sally" the officers using the former name andJthe men the latter.

In that large legislative body the vast majority of the ponderous republican majority are supposed to be what they are officially called z1representative As a. matter of fact they are voting machines and they register the regal will of Speaker Cannon.
 Now and then one of these voting machines is seen to be provided with talking attachments which can be and is turned on and off at the pleasure of the operator, and there is also a sort of kinetoscopic device by the use of which a series of motion pictures may be thrown upon the screen of the na- tional capitol, to the mutual amuse- ment of the speaker and the crowds in the visitors galleries. And the whole contrivance is so simply controlled, An! the wonders of modern science! Uncle Joe Cannon! it's an affection ate title One wonders how the speaker ever got it. and after some deliberation is driven to conclude that it must be because of the striking sim ilarity between Uncle Joe and the cele- brated avuncular relative of the pawn shop. The legislation of this country at all events, is a pledge to Uncle Joe.

THE ENLIGHTENED SUFFRAGE.

THE ENLIGHTENED SUFFRAGE
 Some democratic newspapers find an argument in favor of the educa- tional qualifications bill in that part of President Taft's inaugural address in which, referring to conditions in the south, he suggested the advisa- bility of an educational qualification for suffrage in the southern states.
 The conditions which prompted MT. Tafts suggestion are not in any way similar to those in Arizona. There a majority of the voters are densely ig- norant negroes, who, in the hands of interruptions politicians, could be converted into an engine which would wreck those states and overwhelm the intelligent population. There is no such danger in Arizona, and every year We are being constantly removed from any such peril if it ever ex- isted.
 Beside, our proposed educational law is not aimed at the merely ignor- ant and vicious but at all who can not read the English language or at those whom a partisan election board might suspect of inability to read On account of the peculiar conditions in the makeup of the population of this territory there are many citizens who are not ignorant, but on the contrary, well informed and intelli- gent, who can neither write nor read the English language, just as there are many well informed citizens who can neither write nor read the Ian guage of their neighbors. In such circumstances the reading test is not a test of the intelligence of the voter and by the way it was not meant to be.
 Beside, there are many ignorant Americans who may be able to read a clause of the constitution of the United States in a manner satisfac- tory to a partisan election board, without gaining the slightest idea of it's meaning-men so densely ignor- ant that they would be unable to answer the rudimentary questions concerning our government, pro pounded to applicants for naturaliza- ton.
 In the southern states where Eng fish is the only language, the ability to read it would be regarded as a satisfactory test, for if one has not acquired the art of reading some Ian guage he should not be allowed to vote. He is an illiterate.
 MT Taft's purpose would be to pro- tect society against the ignorant The purpose of the promoters of our edu- cational qualifications bill was to pro tect the democratic party of Arizona. And the legislators have made no concealment of that fact. Democratic politicians are already estimating the advantages they have gained by this bit of legislation.
