WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. l6.- The senate has ratified the Chami- gal treaty negotiated between the United States and Mex co on June 24, but which was too late for con- sideration and ratification at the last session of congress. The treaty provides that the Chamizal claim. Gnyolying the question whether a considerable part of the city of Ei Paso lies in Mexico or the Unitea States, snail be arb'trated by a special commission and a Canadian Jurist- This Canadian Jurlst is to pe named in this manner. The United States shall select three names and Mexico shall select three. It is ex- pected that the two countries will be able to agree on one of the six thus named, but if no agreement is had then the selection of the man is to De ieit to the governor general of Canada
 It is known that the United States and Mexico have already tentatively nominated and discussed the six Can adians from whom one is to be se- lected, and that the United States is willing to select one of the three men selected by Mexico, thus ob- Ntdl uS tue necessity Df CatllnS upon the Canadian governor General to select the third arbitrator.
 It is expected that the Mexican congress will ratify this treaty be- fore it's adjournment on December 14. Until that Is done the selection of the third arbitrator will not be an- nounced.
 The award of the board is to be final and binding upon both coun- tries. The United States is so sure of it's case that no concern is felt as to the outcome of the arbitration
 The commission is to sit at Fl Paso and Ciudad Juarez, beginning May 15, 1911 The presentation of the respective cases and documen- tary evidence is to be made April IS, and the presentation of the respect i've counter cases is to be made April 15, 1911. The treaty provides that in the event the award is ia vorable to Mexico, 1t shall be exc cuted within two years which can not be extended, and which shall be counted from the date on which the award is rendered"

Frank Dixon, the father. lives on a
farm four miles north of Barnes. His
wife was killed in runaway accident
a year ago. Since then Pearl Dixon has
been her fathers housekeeper and has
cared for the younger children.
Dixon was working yesterday in the
hay field some distance from home, ana
the daughter sent him his dinner by
the younger children about IL o'clock.
Later in the day some of the nelghbors
tried to call Pearl on the telephone, but
could get no response. Late in the even
ing, when Mr. Dixon returned from the
bayfield,, he found the house carefully
locked, but the daughter was nowhere
to be seen. A long search resulted in
the finding of her body.
The father Immediately telephoned to
Barnes for a doctor. and the coroner
was notified. DR.. A. J.. Weiss of Barnes,
who examined the body soon after it was
discovered. says there were no marks
to indicate she was victim of an as

Coffeyviile, Kan, Aug. 31.-Colonel

for some time a merchant of this city,
has been encouraging the culture of

variety being that which made the
Blue Grass state famous. the White
Burley.
IT sent and obtained a large guam
tity of White Burley seed last year."
said Colonel Sharpe, "and gave it to
about one hundred farmers living in
this immediate vicinity. They all
promised to plant it and experiment
with a crop. On the seven farms visit
ed in one day. 1 found tobacco doing
fine on six of them. There is no doubt
in NV mind that 1t can be grown here
as successfully as in Kentucky, and IL
this is SO then the annual income of
the local farmers can be materially
increased. In parts of Kentucky the
white Burley tobacco crop averages
S275 to the acre. That beats raising
corn, wheat or anything else.'
