lieve the people of the district should
be given as much time as possible to
select their candidates. Besides,
everybody, especially the farmer, is
too busy about Christmas time to pay
much attention to special elections,
no matter how important they may
be. For these reasons believe it
would be best to wait until after the

Senator Stone Condemns His
Extravaganza.

In his recent jefferson City speech
Senator Stone took Gov. Hadley to
task for extravaganza. The Senator
spoke on the tariff and ended with a
comparison of his own administra-
ton as Governor and the present
one.
He said in part;
'When the Governor sets almost
daily example of extravaganza in
both act and speech, there is no Won
der that his subordinates follow fast
upon his footsteps. The Governor
has set numerous bad examples in
this regard. AS illustrating his ten
dency toward extravaganza, give
you few examples of how things 90
on in the chief executives depart
ment.
For instance, when was Cover
nor the servants Of the mansion were
housed, fed and cared for at my own
expense, and that was true of every
other Democratic governor, both be-
fore and since my incumbency; but
now Gov. Hadley charges the SER
wants for board at the rate of $l2 per
month each, and pays it out of public
money appropriated to meet the cur
rent expenses of the mansion. My
attention has been called to his vouch-
ers put in to pay these bills, and | am
informed that month after month the
executive board bills for the five SER
wants the Governor employ are paid
in this way.
"Agaiy when | was Governor |
ownedFmy own horses and vehicles
and 6ut of my own pocket paid for
all provender necessary to maintain
the mansion stables, and so did every

Hadley must have horses and car

pense and public money with which
to maintain them tlheeHfa Already he has

Judge Exposes Shell Game.

FL Reno, Okla, Nov. @.-Judge
]. L. Phelps, of Ell Reno, has offered
an explanation of the egg phenomen-
on that has excited Kansas for the
past few days and claims the reward
of 500 offered therefor. Ralph Full
len, a Republic County farmer, found
an egg in the shell of which was' i'm
bedded the ominous characters which
spelled out drought 1911" The
egg was taken to Secretary Coburn,
of the State Board of Agriculture,
and placed on exhibition in the cap
itol at Topeka.
Judge Phelps explanation is given
in letter forwarded to Secretary
Coburn to-day. He says:
"The letters are made on the shell
of the egg in this way: Take an or
binary writing pen, but instead of
using ink use hot tallow, either beef
or mutton, and write on the egg
whatsoever you desire. When the
letters of tallow have dried and har-
dened, drop the egg into a glass Of
vinegar and let it remain five or ten
minutes, according to the strength Of
the vinegar. The vinegar eats away
the shell Of the egg, but the letters of
tallow protect the part covered by
the letters. Take the egg out Of the
vinegar and wash it off with cold
water and you have beautifully en-
bossed letters on the surface of the
egg. Be careful not to let the egg
stay in the vinegar too long or the
vinegar will consume the entire shell
of the egg"
