Dalton. Ia. Dec. 2s.-Mrs. Belva A.
Lockwood, the woman attorney, Of
Washington has been sued here for
$4,000 damages by James b. Brack-
EFT, citizen Of Dalton, and the case
will be called for trial next week.
Brackett accuses Mrs. Lockwood of
maliciously having him arrested in an
attempt to extort money.
The case grew out of a government
settlement of the claims Of the de-
scendants of the eastern Cherokee In
dians. Brackets family received more
than $4,000 Of this money, and Mrs.
Lockwood demanded 10 per cent of
this, which Bracket refused on the
grounds that he had not employed her.
Mrs. Lockwood had him arrested,
charging him with larceny after trust
When the case was heard the charge
against Bracket was dismissed and
Mrs. Lockwood was rebuked by the
court

KANSAN WARNS HIS ORCHARD
Five Hundred Stoves to Succeed Pres
ent Smudge Fires.

Sam Young. who owns a sixty acre
orchard south of Atchison, Kan, is
making 500 sheet iron stoves which
win be placed in his orchard mex!
spring. Mr.. Young has twice saved
his orchard from frost by the use OF
smudge fires and believes the stoves
will be more effective. They will cost
him about 40 cents each to construct,
not counting his own labor. and he
figures it will take five men to keep
them going
Other orchard men in that locality
are being won over to the theory of
protecting their orchards from frost
Ben Stuart, who sold $1,000 worth OF
apples in 1910, figures he has saved
several crops this way, but Young is
the first man to introduce stoves ON Il
large scale

St. Louis, Dec 2S.-Governor Elect
Wilson of New Jersey upon his arrival
here to address the joint session Of the
American Economic association and
the American Political Science associa-
ton was interviewed for the st. Louis
PostDispatch regarding the statement
of James Smith, Jr., candidate for the

The Post-Dispatch quotes DIR. Will
son as saying that he intends to car
ry out his program of speeches at vari-
Gus places in New Jersey at the homes
of members of the legislature, urging
the election Of James E. MARITIME.
"Any statement that l discussed
with Mr.. Smith since the primary the
election of any other person than Mr.
MARITIME to the senatorship Is a false
hood" Governor Elect Wilson said.
Mr.. Smith in a statement charged
that Wilson since the election told hin
that MARITIME would not be a desirable
senator and agreed to confer with Mr.
Smith regarding an available subst
tute. This statement DR.. Wilson EN-

TEACH FARMERS DAUGHTERS
Netherlands to Have Schools of House
wifery and Farm Labor.

According to an Amsterdam news
paper, the government of the Neither
lands purposes to establish schools IL
different parts of the kingdom to in.
struct farmers daughters in the du.
ties of housewifery and as workers on
farms. Such instruction has hitherto
been given in the courses of various
institutions throughout the country
but never in schools specially devoted
thereto.
At the outset summer schools will
De started, teaching the more essential
elements of the housewives duties
Later the courses of instruction will
be broadened with the natural growth
of the schools. The design of these
schools will be to give such practical
instruction as will combat the danger
of inspiring farmers daughters with
ambitions outside of farm life, Con
sistent with this design the schools
and pupils will be kept in rural sur
roundings as far as possible.
The courses contemplated in thesC
schools are nature study, zoology
botany. cooking, washing, ironing
sewing, household duties generally
household administration, nourishine
foods, etc. 1t is proposed that as III
terest in the schools increases still
more comprehensive lines of instruc
tion will be gradually introduced il
the various provinces of the kingdom.

TO BEAT THE WILSON GUN.
Republican State Senators Will Hurry
Reform LEGISLATION,


Trenton, n. j., Dec. 2S.-When the
Republican members of the New Jer-
ssy senate came out of a lawmaking
program conference here it was evi-
dent that the senate. Which will be
Republican by a small majority, will
attempt to make Republican capital at
the expense of Governor Elect Wilson
and the Democratic house by passing
a mass of legislation between the time
of meeting Of the legislature Jan. 10
and the Inauguration of Governor vii.
son Jan. II.
In the past it has been the rule in
the legislature to spend the first few
weeks of the session each year with a
lot of preliminary work of decidedly
minor Importance. This year it is
planned by the Republicans to pass a
number of reform" measures in rec.
ord time by introducing them the
opening day Of the session, referring
them to committees and then rushing
them through the necessary readings
to final passage by the end of the first
week of the session.
Among the measures which will be
passed is one dealing with advanced
public utilities ideas.
