McLOuth Girl Walks % Miles in
Search of Work.
Given Shelter at Lawrence After
Her Long Tramp.
Is PAROLED RUNAWAY
Martha Pinzon a Ward Of the
Juvenile Court.
Now Will Be Sent to Beloit In
dustrial School.

Lawrence, Kan, Feb. because
the neighbors gossiped about her
when there was no foundation for
their idle chatter, Martha Pinzon, a
16-year-old farmers daughter, walked
twenty-three miles in search of work.
With only the clothes she wore, the
girl left home and started to Law
renee. She was without money or
food and at one farm house where
fatigue finally forced her to stop to
ask for place to stay, she could not
be taken in.
The girl lives on farm three miles
northwest of McLouth. She conclud-
ed she would not remain at home any
longer and started for Lawrence. The
distance is twenty-three miles and she
walked every step of the way. She
had no dinner nor supper and late
that night, exhausted and terrified at
the darkness, she knocked at q farm
home and asked for lodging. Her re-
quest was refused and she staggered
on into North Lawrence where she
met Miss Annie Harms and was given
shelter.

said Miss Pinzon this morning at the
home of OFFICER Culver, where she is
being cared for, but the neighbors
talked about me so hatefully that I

What did you expect to find here p,
she was asked
"Oh. didn't know exactly. I sup
posed 1 could get work in a factory
or something
The girl is plainly but tastefully
dressed.
The girl has been a ward of the ju-
venile court and was on parole at the
time she ran away. Upon learning
of her departure the court issued a
warrant for her arrest and Sheriff
E. 0. Mccain arrived to take the girl
back with him.
The girl has made her home part
of the time with her parents and part
with her sister, This is her second
attempt to run away. The former
time she took the train and the Of
ficers headed her off at Tonganoxie.
1t is probable the girl will now be
sent to the Industrial school at Be
lott.

r. Smith will go along. While Com
pany A is away detachment of Com
pany D, Signal Corps, will come down
from Fort Omaha for duty with the
school.
The order for the signal company
to go caused a stir and soon spread
over the post. Some officers believe
it will be followed by an order for Of
f1cers to join their commands, but this
trouble becomes more serious. The
Thirteenth Infantry at this post is I'M
der orders to sail for the Philippines

STILL HUNT BODY OF REICH.
Searchers Discover Three Skeletons
Thought to Be of Indians.

Hutchinson, Kan, Feb. 6.-Search-
ers for the body of Otto Reich have
literally honeycombed the sandhills
along the. Arkansas river on Reich's
farm since the discovery of three
skeletons. 1t is coming to be the be-
lief now that body is hidden nearer
Reich's house than prophesied by
Jake" Mingle, who revelations of the
murder started the hunt for the body.
The police are quietly gathering evil
dence to connect one man with the
murder. but are not yet in a position
to make an arrest.
An examination of the three skeI-
etons found Saturday leads to the be-
lief that they are of Indians, as beads,
such as worn by Indians, were found
in the sand near the bones. The con-
dition OF the beads indicated that
they had been buried for many years.

THEY SOLVE COST OF LIVING.
Two Kansas Boys Spend Only s. a
Month for Food.

Manhattan; Kan, Feb 6.-The
problem of the high cost of living has
been solved in a unique manner by w.
P. Brigham and B. P. Baker, two stu
dents at the Kansas State Agricultural
college, who are living comfortably on
$14 a month.
This expense is divided into Sc for
rent and less than IS month for gro
ceries and fuel. Baker says:
1--WE began by buying mostly pre-
pared foods and found that our gro
Gerry bill for the first month was about
$14. This was too expensive, so we
have been doing more cooking since
then, and our groceries often do not
cost more than SIS a month. and we
have some pretty good meals, too. We
use lot of beans and potatoes and
prepare them so variedly they do not
grow monotonous. Our coal since last
September has only cost $3. We
bought 50 worth of lump coal and 81
worth Of slack and mixed it, The
small expense for fuel is due to not
keeping a fire going during the day"
Both young men are working their
way through college. Baker says he
made $21.70 last month working at
TN cents an hour in a greenhouse,
and Brigham is also employed during
the afternoon.

CUTS PAYROLL IN KANSAS.
Union Pacific Laying Of Men ON Kan
SaS Divisions.


Junction City, Kan, Feb. 6.-The
Union Pacific railroad company has
been using the axe in earnest on its
employees on the Kansas division since
the first of December.
Between December 1 and January
Is the company dismissed and sus-
pended 81 men from this division.
Most of the dismissed employees were
trainmen living either in Junction City
or Salina, but many of them had runs
through Manhattan.
The men who were dismissed blame
their dismissal to one Mr.. Reed,
who appeared along the line in several
different places and an extra brake
man. The men allege that Reed
treated them to whisky which had
been purchased by the railroad COM
pany for a bait.
The Salina Union has the following
to say about Mr.. Reed:
"Mr. Reed was a very mysterious
brakeman who came to Salina, as
signed to special work. He was al
ways sent out with a crew where there
would be no work to do and he always
had a little bottle along with him. He
treated the other men of the crew to
the contents of this bottle. He worked
here about a month and then he quit.
Seven conductors were dismissed in
one bunch as a result OF his visit to
Salina.
"a notice of all the dismissals and
suspensions was posted UP in the
depot in Salina and some one wrote
on it this thought: This is what you
get for 40 years service F."

FEEL SURE OF ROAD NOW.
Western Kansas Pleased With Bond
sale N, X. & S. r. r.

Downs, Kan, Feb. ct has been
some time since there has been any
news, relative to the Nebraska, Kansas
& Southern road, the line which Judge
F. t. Burnham has been promoting
between Garden City and Stockton,
but the following items from the
stockton Review indicate that the
proposition is still very much alive and
that a. western outlet may be reality
in the next year or two:
The good news was received today
that the contract for the sale of the
NJ. K. & S. railroad bonds has been
completed and signed, and that this
removes the doubt from the PROPOSE
ton of building the road from here to
Garden City.
The writer saw F. T. Durham in
Kansas City last week and had talk
with him about the railroad prospects
for Stockton. Mr.. Burnham says plans
that can not fail have been made for
the furnishing of the money for the
construction of this line. and that
there is no question of its ultimate
building. Mr.. Burnham was just de-
parting for New York when we saw
him, and said he was going there on
railroad business. Mr.. Burnham is
feeling fine, and confident in the mat
ter, and said for the people here not
to lose faith, as the road was coming.

Man Returned From Prison Finds He
Can Not Recover Property.
Ottawa, Kan, Feb. 6.-When a man
Is confined in the penitentiary on a
life sentence, and is civi1ly dead ac-
cordlng to law. can his property be
disposed of through the courts, just as
II he were dead? This is the question
which came before Judge C. A. Smart
OF the district court recently, and was
decided by him.
Last November E. j. Preston
brought suit in the district court ask
ing that deeds to several lots in the
city be set aside. The action was
brought in three suits. all of which
were tried this week. One was against
Arthur Whitaker ct al; another
against c. H. Estabrook ct al, and the
other against Allen j. Barnes. Judge
Smart decided all in favor of the de-
PENDANTS, assessing the costs against
Preston.
On August 16. 1891, z. j. Preston
was arrested, charged with the murder
OF his wife. He was tried in the fol-
lowing January term of court, and on
January 26, 1892, was sentenced and
taken to the penitentiary to serve a
life sentence for murder in the sec
ond degree. His Imprisonment In the
penitentiary lasted till November 80,
1907, when he was pardoned. When
he returned home he found all his
property sold and in the hands of
other people.

RurbanI1,s kansas Rival Dead.

Wichita, Kan, Feb. 6.-William H.
Thomas, the Kansas rival of Burbank.
is dead at his home here after a weeks
illness. Thomas was well known, not
only in this section, but among horti-
culturists and florists for his rare skill
in growing plants. He grated plants
successfully and produced several new
varieties. However, he never made
this a business, pursuing it rather for
pleasure. He derived practically no
commercial profit from his work but
his greenhouse here is one of the
beauty spots of the city. Mr.. Thomas
came to Wichita in a covered wagon in
1873 and pursued his trade of cabinet
maker until he became wealthy
enough to retire and pursue his avoca-
4 on of growing flow ers.

ton that will Immediately pop into
the minds of athletic followers upon
hearing the rumor that the revised
football schedule of the Hawkeyes will
contain but one Missouri Valley game.
According to advices from Iowa City
the State university has proposed an
October game for Drake and that
Ames will have the 18th of Novem-
Der instead of the local school as at
first supposed. 1t is almost certain
that Coach Griffith will not agree to
playing the Hawkeyes in October, as
he has always made it a policy to
meet the three big Iowa schools in
November and not in the preparatory
season.
It is a well known fact that Iowa
has been looking with kindly eye
toward the big Eight crowd for
several years, to the exclusion of the
Missouri Valley. At the recent meet
ing of the college presidents in Des
Moines, however, Iowas attitude
seemed to have changed and the rep
resentatives were warm in their en-
thusiasm for a bigger and better NJ.

.ATARRH
AsYgTEgIC BLOOD DISEASE

/ Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes; it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part of
the system are involved. It is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because Of the sensi-
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as a tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, ETC., show
that the tiny blood vessels of the mu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and inhamed from the impurities in
the circulation. To cure Catarrh per-
Snanently the blood must be purified

SCORERS NAMES TO BE SECRET.
Ban johnson VIII Suggest That
Names Be Withheld.

NdII1OS be WlCnnelO.
Chicago, Feb. 6.-The identity of
American league official scorers here
after will be known only to league
officials, club owners and the scorers
themselves, if the owners take kindly
to the suggestion when made by Pres
ident B. B. Johnson at the schedule
meeting of the league here on Feb
ruary IA. The matter will be put up
to the magnates by Mr.. Johnson, who
said yesterday that he favored the
move. The same suggestion has been
made by Secretary Heydler of the Ma
tionaI league.
By the existing system official scor-
ers in both major leagues are known
to the players. and any one else who
cares to ask. Naturally they are sub
jected to pressure, often from players
themselves and more often. from
friends of players. Batting and field
ing averages depend much upon judg-
ment, which is bound to be affected
more or less by outside influences or
opinions.
