MIND WAS BLANK FOR YEARS
Kansas Farmer Returns to Home After
Long Being Mourned as Dead and
Tells Strange Story.
copyright. 1910. !

Eudora, Kan.-Henry Whaley, once
farmer near Eudora, returned home
on Tuesday after being mourned as
dead for fifteen years. For thirteen
of these years his mind has been a
blank. He does not remember who OF
where he was. For the last two years
he had drifted from one county poor.
house to another.
A few days ago, while being cared
for at the expense of Wallace county,
Kan, he called the name of his cousin,
george Whaley of Eudora George
Whaley brought him home.
Henry Whaley is 81 years old. He
left Eudora thirty years ago and went
west to seek his fortune. Fifteen years
ago the last letter came from him to
mis- sister, Mrs. Sarah Penry, now of
Lancaster, Me. He was then working
in a Washington logging camp. but
wrote that he intended sailing soon
for South America, giving the name
of the ship. The sister read later of
the wreck of the ship and the loss of
all on board. Whaley cannot remem-
ber as to whether he ever sailed for
South America. He remembers being
once, but separating from his
wife. So far as he knows. he never
again. Deep scars on Whal-
ey's head lead to the theory that he
may have been slugged and robbed. An
operation will be performed to see if
his mental delinquency is caused by
pressure on his brain.

.|NFORMER' LYNCHED
STRIFE BETWEEN SALOON AND
ANTIsALooN ELEMENT RE-
SUITS IN HANGING.
Youno Man Who Killed Proprietor Of
"Blind Tiger" During Raid Us
Taken from Jail by unmasked
Mob and Hanged.

Newark. O.-Carl Etherington, %
years old, employed Thursday night
by the State Anti-Saloon league as
blind tiger raider was lynched here
at 1896 Friday night following a day
of almost continuous riotlng. The
heavy doors of the Licking county
Jail were battered down and Ether
ington was dragged from his cell. He
was shot, kicked and bruised before
the street was reached, and the finish
was quick.
Etherlngton early In the evening,
confessed he killed William Howard,
proprietor of the Last Chance" res
taurant and former chief of police, in
a raid of alleged speak. k.easies,' and
narrowly escaped lynching at that
time. When news was brought from
the hospital that Howard had died
at o'clock Friday night, the fury of
the mob took definite form, Large
rams were directed against
the doors of the Licking county Jail
and the deputies were powerless.
The doors fell after an hours attack.
Crying piteously, Etherington, a cur
ly-headed Kentuckian, who had been
serving as strikebreaker since he
was released from the marine service
three months ago, was dragged forth
and hanged, his body hanging for an
hour before the gaze of quiet and
sobered crowd after which it was
taken to the city morgue.

Topeka. Kan.-The discovery of foul
cases of infantile paralysis in Kansas

retary of the state board of health,

Truthful if Elegant.

mother who allows a 16-year-old
daughter to float around the town in
top buggy until 200 a. M, with a
counterfeit sport with weak jaw and
weaker morals merely opens the front
door to grief and disgrace. If you
don't know what company your girl
keeps or what time of night she turns
in, your roar when gossips get busy
will sound as pathetic as the wheeZe
from Jews harp. The girl who in
sists on spooning with everybody in
the corporate limits ought to be back
ed into the woodshed and relieved of
l. slipper laid carelessly across the
hiplets. We had sooner see girl kiss
a blind shoat through a barbed wire
fence than have her change partners
six nights week in the front parlor
with the lights turned low. It's harder
to marry off girl who has been paw
ed over by every zap in the commun-
ity than it is to fatten sheep on pine
apple ice. You can't gold brick a
sharp-eyed sutton with second hand
goods any more than you can fit a
of weak minded parents who are 60
ing up against the judgment day with
about as much show as cross-eyed
girl at a beauty show, and their chill
dren will rise up and call them blessed
with the enthusiasm of one-legged

He never made his parents sad,
They never had to scold him;

Things pleasant for his mother.
When pa was my age he would clean

Because they made him study;
He always tried his best to be
