Heart Breaker
is Found Guilty
Charles E. Nord, Who Made Love to
Many Women and Robbed Them,
Draws Five Years.

KANSAS CITY, May 14-Charles Z. Nord,
a real estate broker, accu<eo of winning
the love Of a number of women in various
cities, including Omaha, New York and
Chicago, and inducing them to part with
IN cir money, was today sentenced to five
years in the penitentiary. He was
charged with obtaining money under false
pretenses from Mrs. Carrie Hamilton, a
milliner, formerly of Frankfort, Kan,
by making false pretenses. The SEN
tence imposed by Judge Latshaw was the
maximum penalty.
When Nord was arrested glowing letters,
addressed to him from women in a dozen
different states reaching from New York
to New Mexico, were found in his trunk.
In almost every Instance the writer be-
tween words of love spoke of money ad-
vanced to Nord and of deals which he was
supposed to be conducting for them. Many
of the letters were published. Then num-
bers of the women worte the local author
tiles denouncing Nord and asserting that
he had not dealt squarely with them in
matters of love as well as of money.
The charge on which Nord is being tried
is that preferred by Mrs. Carrie Hamil-
ton, a milliner formerly of Frankfort, Kan.
Mrs. Hamilton today testified that Nord
! had persuaded her TO sell her home and
her millinery store, giving the proceeds to
him for investment in a food preserving
company in which he said he was inter-
ested. Il never received the stock" said
Mrs. Hamilton, land afterwards l learned
that no such company ever existed"

Big Decrease
in Fatalities
on Railroads
Statistician Thompson Finds Silver
Lining Under Recent Fnan-
cial Clouds.

CHICAGO, May 14.-There was a silver
in the form of a remarkable decrease in
the number of railroad fatalities, accord
ing to a special report made public today
by Slawson Thompson, editor of Bureau
of Railway News and Statistics. The re-
port, which is based on statistics of the
Interstate Commerce commission, says:
"There were 1882 fewer fatalities to pas
sengers and employees in railway accidents
during the calendar year 1908 than in 1907.
Comparing the returns of 1908 with those
of the fiscal year 1867, the decrease in
fatalities was even more gratifying, being
2,113, or 434 per cent. OF these the de-
crease in passengers killed was from $40
to 1872, or nearly 4S.s per cent, and in en-
plcyes from 4,43O to 2,535, or 43 per cent ."
Fatalities to passengers in train acct
dents decreased 20 per cent in the calendar
year 1908. as compared with the fiscal
year 1867, and 81 per cent among en-
ployes hurt in the same class of accidents.
This decrease among employees is qualified
by the fact that during the panic their
ranks were reduced by Is per cent laying
off"
IAN things considered" the report con-
tinues, "the conclusion is unavoidable that
the marked dimunition in fatalities in 1908
was due almost entirely to the recession
in freight traffic, which took the strain
off every department Of service and sub
stituted orderly observance of rules by
passengers and employees for the violation
in the feverish rush of prosperity that
eliminated in october. 1907. Like condi-
lions produced like results before and after
the panic Of 1888"
Mr.. Thompson notes that the railroads
Of Great Britain went through the year
1908 without killing a single passenger in
a train accident.

Roosevelt Takes
Tolstoi to Task
Denies in Editorial that Bryan Rep
resented Party of Peace in
Last Campaign.

NEW YORK, May A-Ex-President
Roosevelt, in the current number of the
Outlook, combats the statement credited
to Count Leo Tolstoi that Bryan repre-
scented the party Of peace in the last presi-
dental campaign. On this point Mr.. Roose-
welt says:
Now, there was but one point in the
platform of either political party in 1908
which contained an element Of menace to
the peace of the world. This was the
plank in the Bryanite platform which de-
manded the immediate exclusion by law
of all Asiatic' laborers and therefore of the
Japanese. Coupled with this was the ut
terly meaningless plank about the navy,
which was, however, intended to convey
the impression that we ought to nave a
navy only for the defense OF our coasts:
that Is, a merely defensive navy, or in
other words, a quite worthless navy"
The eX-president expresses the opinion
that Tolstoi has "swayed or dominated only
the feeble folk and the fantastic folk and
that his influence over linen of action
has not been great.

crete feeding trough which is an in
tegral part of the floor. Four feel

trough; the interior was shaped by
means of trowel and finishing tools
without the aid of retaining walls
The inside and outside of the trough
is coated with 1 and 1 mixture OF

One OF the most useful applications
Of Portland cement in farm economy
Is seen in the construction of build
ings for the sheltering and feeding of
swine. 1t was the good fortune of the
writer several summers ago to aid in
the planning and construction of such
a structure on the farm of U. F.
Stoner in Stark county, o. AS con-
crete played an important part in the
erection of this building, it may pos
sibly be of interest to know how this
particular hog house was built.
The ground plan dimensions are 16
x20 feet. The foundations are made
of two layers or tiers of heavy build
ing tile set on top of finely crushed
stones, filling a trench about 2.5 feet
deep. This depth of foundation prac-
tically prevents any upheaval from
frost in the winter, writes H. S. Cham
berlain in Farmers Review. The
space between these foundation walls
was filed up, ever with the top Of
the first tier of the wall tiles, with cob

THANKSGIVING DAY
canada's Day of Thanks Month Ear
Iier Than in the United States.

For some reason better known to
the Canadians themselves than to the
people on this side of the line, our
Canadian cousins celebrated their
Thanksgiving a month or more earlier
than We do 1t may be that the Cana
dian turkey had become impatient, and
sounded a note of warning, or it may
be that the frost on the pumpkin de-
clared itself. But whatever the reason,
their Thanksgiving day is past. 1t may
nave been that the reasons for giving
thanks so much earlier than we do
were pushing themselves so hard and
so fast that the Canadians were
ashamed to postpone the event. They
have had reasons, and good ones, too,
Tor giving thanks. Their great broad
areas of prairie land have yielded in
abundance, and here, by the way. it is
not embarrassing to the friends of
the millions of Americans who have
made their home in Canada during the
past few years to know that they have
participated most generously in the
cutting of the melon" Probably the
western portion of Canada, comprising
the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche-
wan and Alberta, have the greatest
reason of any of the provinces TO ex-
press in the most enthusiastic manner
their gratitude. The results in the
line of production give ample reason
for devout thanksgiving to Providence.
This year has surpassed all others in
so far as the total increase in the coun-
try's wealth is concerned. There is no
question that Providence was espe-
cially generous. The weather condi-
tions were perfect, and during the
| ripening and harvesting period, there
was nothing to interfere. And now it
was we'll it was so, for with a demand
for labor that could not be supplied,
there was the greatest danger, but
with suitable weather the garnering OF
the grain has been successfully accom-
piished. There have been low gen.
eral averages, but these are account
ed for by the fact that farmers were
Indifferent, relying altogether upon
what a good soil would do. There
will be no more low averages though,
for this year has shown what good,
careful farming will do. 1t will pro-
duce 40 million bushels of wheat from
seven million acres, and it will pro-
| 0uce a splendid lot of oats, yielding
anywhere from so to 100 bushels per
acre. This on land that has cost but
from SO to SIS per acre-many farm
| ers have realized suff cient from this
years crop to pay the entire cost of
their farms. The Toronto Globe says:
The whole population of the West
rejoices in the bounty of Providence.
and sends out a message of gratitude
and appreciation of the favors which
have been bestowed on the country.
The cheerfulness which has abounded
with industry during the past six
months has not obliterated the concep~
ton of the source from which the
blessings have flown, and the good
feeling is combined with a spirit of
thankfulness for the privilege of living
in so fruitful a land. The misfortunes
of the past are practically forgotten
because there is great cause to con.
template with satisfaction the com.
forts of the present. Thanksgiving
should be a season of unusual en-.
thusiasm."

HAPPINESS IN ONES WORK
Only in Proper Employment Can
There Be Found the Real
Joy of Life.

The joy of life is the joy of work
well done. Husbands love their wives
but, oh. their work! Wives, notable
for housekeeping, for wise mother

helpfulness in which women so shine.
burn incense of affection to their
lords, yet have constant delight in
their duties.
Many fortunate men fall into work
from the start which gets the warmth
of their heart as much as their
strength and muscle and activity Of
brain. But there are far too many
who snatch at any employment and
find themselves condemned to it
They sweat and groan and so add &c
their unhappiness. They butt their
heads against stone walls and then
wonder at the bruises.
Let's preach a bit. If the work is
not to ones first liking try to make
it so. Complaining will do no good;
sulking embitters. Put the best that's
in you in the job, and it's dollars to
doughnuts that the job will pay you
back. 1t will grow easier and more
agreeable. In time a genuine liking
for it may be developed. And then
will come the best of happiness

The use of oxen in logging opera
tions in the great forests of pine and
hardwoods in Arkansas and other
parts of the south is almost as COM
mon to-day as in the earlier period of
the lumber industry before the intro
duction of tram roads and modern
machinery for skidding and loading
the cut timber.
Some of the larger lumber manufac-
turing concerns in Arkansas have
three or four hundred head of oxen
constantly employed in handling the
logs from the interior of the forests
to the loading places. 1t is found that
these patient animals are much more
serviceable than mules or horses for
this particular purpose. What they
lack in quickness of movement they
