Girls and Politics


To the readers of the Index and
those concerned in the education of
our boys and girls:
In reply to the statement that I
am partial to the boys by giving
them quarter holidays to hear the
questions of the day discussed, will
say, that only the grade boys are
given this privilege, and that. only
when they must go to other places
than their home town.
would not object to any young
lady of the same grade going to
a similar meeting if she desired but
it is my belief and opinion that our
young ladies of today should learn
more thoroughly the domestic du-
ties of life, cooking, sewing, arts,
that the homes be more cheerful.
Many of our young ladies spend
nearly as much time hunting dress
makers, then taking time to have
the~garments fitted, as it would to
do the sewing herself Miles Stand
ish said, eff you want anything done
well do it yourself. This will ap-
ply to ourselves as well as to form
er generations. / will further say
that as far as I have authority
will give quarter holiday occasion
ally to the young ladies of my
school at any time they wish to
learn the arts and domestic sciences
and would be glad to assist, and
give them needed instruction

ton on Tuesday of last week to
bring back Mr.. and Mrs. D. C.Craft
who were wanted to answer to a
charge of stealing team and bug
gy from Thos. Sallee, a Kiowa liv-
eryman. The sheriff arrived with
his prisoners on Thursday and in
absence of bail they were commit
ted to jail.
The defendants deny the charge
and have employed Noble & Tinch-
er to defend them They claim
that they did not steal the team and
buggy and had no intention OF
stealing them.
The facts in the case are sub
stantially as follows: Mrs. Craft
hired the rig on the Sunday previ-
Gus to the arrest, saying that she
was going to Hazelton. Mr.. Craft
Joined her on the edge of town. They
drove to Anthony and put up the
team at livery barn and went from

not returned, he got busy and IL
nally, with the aid of Deputy Sher-
iff Gesner, located the team at An
: thony and the couple at Wellington
The police of the latter city arrest
ed them and held them for Sheriff

Whether or not this is theft is
a close question, but if the facts are
as related, the parties deserve pun.

The Big Negro Put the
Great Jeffries out in
Fifteenth Round
James J. Jeffrie., the Cham
pinn of % Battles, knock
ed down for the first time
in his fighting life.--It was
a case of the veteran fight
er failing to "come back"

TWENTY thousand people from
all over the world witnessed the
defeat of James j. Jeffries by
Jack johnson in the big arena st
Reno, Nevada on July 4th, in q
fifteen round contest, in which
the colored man had the best of
the arguement at all times.
1t was clearly demonstrated
that the big boilermaker did not
"come back. !" He retained his
old-time sameness and fighting
heart, but was the Jetfries of old
only in appearance. His fierce
rnshes and punches lacked the
force thev once had, and he was
unable to land on the "coon"
with anv dam aging effect
The outcome o. this great
fight casts heavy gloom over
great American people. but the
veteran pugilist has the svmp.

people. He did his best.
Sam Langford, just previous
to the opening of the tight, caus
ed the announcement to be made
that he would challenge Johnson,
win or lose.

Round 1.-The men refused to
shake hands. Johnson smiled
and JetTrles continually chewed
gum. After a long opening ses-
sion Of sparring Johnson shot
his left to the face and they

Jeffries back. Johnson swn g
his left to the jaw and as Jetfries
roughed it at close quarters the
big black shot his left again to
the face. The men locked arms.
Jeffrles clouted his man with
two short arm lefts to the face
and the crowd yelled. "Why
don t you laugh?" shouted Cor
bett ct Johnson and the latter
winked and smiled back at the
former cham pion. The men
continued in locked embrace
and as the gong terminated the
round johnson playfully tapped
JetfrleS on the shoulder aud no

Jetfries then told his seconds to
let him alone; he would fight his

Ed Carter who resided In this city
until last fall when he left his wife

MUST SPRAY TREES.

Isaac Snuff. one of the most sue
cessful fruit raisers Of Fulton county.
has demonstrated that it has become
necessary TO spray trees II fruit is
successfully grown. Conditions have
so changed in the past few years
that the crop is almost a failure, al
though Fulton county orchards were
once the most abundant producers in
the state. Mr.. Snuff seems to have
solved the problem in great meas
ure by spraying his trees. He not
only gets good yield since he in
augurated this policy but the quality
Of the fruit is much better. Other
fruit growers might profit by mis- ex-
perience.

HERE TOMORROW
Old Time Prominent Business Man of
keokuk Is Dead and Will Be
Buried in Oakland
Cemetery.
INFLUENTIAL CITIZEN
Every Old Resident Of keokuk viii
Remember This Man as One Of
the Leading Business
Men.

Saml s. Brides, one Of the old-time
merchants of Keokuk died yesterday
at Kansas City at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Charles Carter, and
the remains are to be brought to Keo-
kuk tomorrow morning for burial in
Oakland cemetery by the side of his
wife, who died many years ago and
is buried here.
Word of his death was received last
night late by G. Collingwood Tucker
in long distance telephone message
from Mr.. Carter and the news today
will cause many of the older citizens
of Keokuk to look backward to the
time when Mr.. Bridges was bust
ness man here. For number of
years he was engaged in the jewelry
business at the corner of Fifth and
Main streets and conducted one OF
the largest retail jewelry stores in
this section of the country. Every
old citizen of Keokuk will remember
him, for he was highly successful
merchant and had friends by the hun
drads in Keokuk when he resided
here.
His death was probably due to his
advanced age for he was in the
neighborhood of eighty years old and
had been in rather feeble health fol
some time.
| The early history of Keolluk would
not be complete without some men
| ton of him and the older citizens
can no doubt recall many incidents
of his life here when he was one o.
the most prominent and Influential
citizens.
The funeral will be direct from the
train tomorrow morning at 7:3'
o'clock and Rev McIlwain will prob
ably conduct the services at the Gem
etery. The remains will be accom-
panied here by his daughter, Mrs
Charles Carter, her husband ant
/ daughter. Miss Marguerite.
