Nothing to Live

AUBURN, N. Y, July 27.--Whiie
William Gilbert, the Cattaraugus coun-
ty negro, was being led from the death
house to the electric chair in Auburn
prison this morning. the convicts in
the cell houses shouted oaths at the
legal witnesses, declaring they were
murderers of an innocent man. Gil
bert himself was resigned to his fate
and exhibited no fear as he walked
to the chair. One shock was suff.
cient to cause death.
Gilbert was put to death for the
murder of his sweetheart, Viola
Hughes. He maintained to the last
that the shooting was accidental. AS
he was being strapped in the chair he
said: 81 think an injustice is being

THE WONDERS OF ALFALFA.

Denver Republican.
1t becomes more and more evident,
as the empire continues to wing its
way westward, that the wonders OF
alfalfa are endless. A Los Angeles
doctor-and lady doctor, TOBIAS
discovered that alfalfa juice possesses
great curative properties. 1t is UNI
eXcelled as a soother of nerves, and,
Furthermore, it is so healthfully stimu-
lating that 1t has been known to made
the LATEST people fond of hard work,
but crowning discovery OF all-the
lady doctor has tried tablets of alfalfa
on men who have had delirium tire.
mems, and, under the influence of the
soothing green weed the visions of
serpents vanished and sanity was re
stored to its throne.
Western ranchmen who have made
alfalfa their staple crop have been
too busy harvesting it to find out much
about the qualities of the plant An
alfalfa field is worse than a spoiled
child when it comes to keeping hui
manity on the jump. No sooner is
one crop cut and stacked than an
other crop has sprung up, as II by
magic, and the ranchman must do his
work all over again. Then comes a
third crop and sometimes fourth
crop atop of that, and, by the time
fall arrives, the farmer knows moth
ing about alfalfa except that it keeps
men busy and makes them wealthy.
Every year, however, has seen al
falfa steadily growing in Importance
as a first-aid to humanity. 1t has even
reached the table in the form of bis
cults, and now it comes into promi
nence as rod and staff for those who
nave been too ardent worshippers at
the shrine of Bacchus. There Is no
telling what will be done next with
alfalfa. 1t may be used as an oil rub,
to enable champion athletes to come
back" or in vest pocket tablet form,
it may solve the table problem which
occupies so much of the public atten
ton. Science should quit fooling with
radium and other things that promise
more than they perform. and expert
ment with alfalfa which promises
nothing, but performs new wonders
every year.

the fight they wanted to make. At
last Rowland, protesting he had no
formal draft of platform to offer, was
bundled into an automobile and hus-
tied to the convention hall. He had
not made up his mind when the hall
was reached whether he would offer
his resolutions or not. Meanwhile the
Garfield delegates had been waiting
patiently for the signal to battle.
They had expected from the first that
the stand pat crowd would control
the resolutions committee. that Sen
ator Dick would write the platform
and that the progressive fight would
open with the presenting of the mi
nority report. When they heard that
there was even doubt whether a mi
nority report would be presented they
were simply dumfounded When Dick
mounted the platform to the music of
stand pat yells, to read his stand pat
resolutions. Rowland decided he would
not offer his minority report. This
ended the Garfield fight in Ohio. The
platform presented by Senator Dick
was adopted by convention without
sign of fight from the progressive
forces. Only a few nays were heard
when viva voce vote was called for.

Judge Brown of Dayton, a comhina'

tional administration men broke the
fight on the third ballot Then Cox,
yielding to the inevitable, cast the
ninety-one votes for Harding. That
finished it. The withdrawal of James

before the beginning of the vote made
possible the administration combina-
ton. All the Garfield votes outside
of the Cuyapoga delegation and few
