Kansas City Has Sensations.

Kansas City had two sensations
of unsual interest the past week
which have both been cleared of
their mystery and the guilty par
ties fortunately under arrest.
The first was the finding of the
murdered body OF Neil McCoig,
He was found to have been muir
dered by Ward Mower, his COM
panion, who robbed him.
The other was the assault OF Mrs.
w. H. Jackson by two young spor-
ty negroes, who treated her most
brutally. A colored policeman ar
rested them after a hard fight and
their trial was carried on as speed
lily as the law permits. They will
hang on Feb. 5th, the shortes time
allowed by the statutes. Such
cases as this, with all their horrible
detail, make it very hard for the
colored people to gain the con-
fidence and respect of the white
people, and it is to their cre6i. that
they are as anxious to see these
brutes hung as the white popula-
ton.

Advocates Diet of AppIes

Doctors and others advocate the
free use Of apples for this seasons
diet.
II is claimed that II this fruit is put
on the daily bill OF fare, the liver will
be kept In good working order, the
skin will be clearer and the circula-
ton less sluggish.
An apple eaten in the afternoon be-
tween the usual hurried luncheon and
the late heavy dinner gives the stom-
ach just enough to do and does good
work with the blood.
Another one should be eaten Just be-
fore going TO bed at night. Even
stomachs that ann digest a glass OF
rich milk at night take kindly to an
apple. II has no i'll effects.

If the Democratic nominee for the

senators by popular vote.
Don't let any political literary
bureau or any local statesman

til you know just what he will repre-
sent and work for when elected.
Examine his record.
Study his environment,

May Plant Wheat Now.

To the EDITORIAL the risk Of be-
inc considered crank about wheat
growing / wish to have another
word with the farmers Of this COM
munity.
Wheat may yet be planted this
season with a fair degree Of safety
for the crop if the land is in good
condition.
Reports have been sent out that
in some parts Of the State the st&:d
Of wheat is poor this season by ~
son Of the dry condition Of The soil
in which it has been planted. With
the present good rain in this region
it is almost certain that wheat plant
ed within the next few days will do
as we'll as that which was planted
earlier in dry soil.
At any rate it will cost but little
to plant few acres. If fortified
well when planted followed by g
good top dressing next spring there
is yet good chance for a good crop,
with splendid opportunity for fine
crop of COW peas after the wheat.
