BRAVES THE ANGER
Of WEALTHY FATHER
Selwyn c. Edgar Claims Body of
His Mother, From Whom He
Was Taken in Infancy.
BY Leased Wire to The Tribune.


CHICAGO, July 22.-Braving the
anger of his millionaire father and
hurrying to look for the first time IN
twenty years upon the face of his
mother, who was crushed under the
wheels Of an automobile Friday morn
ing, although she is dead, Selwyn G.
Edgar, Jr., of st. Louis, son OF Mrs
Katherine Porter, the "veiled woman
of mystery" will arrive IN Chicago to-
morrow morning from q small town In
New York where he has been visiting
The young man called up the long dis
tance phone and said to w. Z. Hobbs,
who had employed his mother as ser
want for five years:
"My mother was the dearest woman
in the world. l will be in Chicago just
as soon as a train can get me there.
Please do not hold any funeral services,
as ! want to take charge of the body
AS for Mrs. Porter IS former husband
Selwyn G.. Edgar, when he first heard
of her death, he displayed indiffer-
ence
"She went out Of my life twonty
wears ago, - he said.
1t was at his command that the son,
since he was year old, has never
seen his mother.
Mrs. Edgar, after separating from
her husband, married John Porter,
whose abuse caused her to leave him
known as "the woman of mystery on
account OF always being heavily veiled
which probably shut out the sight of
the approaching automobile and caused
her death.

IAJORD comes from Nevada that the
wv financial star OF Walter Scott, the
Death Valley "man Of mystery" is
again in the ascendant. According to
reports, Scott showed up IN Goldneld
clean. new bills. Nobody who knows
Scott will doubt the story. the mat
ter of showing up with huge roll, when
he Is supposed TO be down and out, is
one OF Scotts favoritc tricks. One of
Scott's favorite expressions is: You may
break me. but YOU can't keep me broke" ="
The picture Of Scott herewith repro
duced Is perhaps the best In existence.
1t shows him with his characteristic
cynical smile. just as he is about TO say
II do the dealing and you must do the
guessing"

Duffy'S Pure Malt Whiskey

1t stimulates the flow Of saliva for
the digestion of the starchy foods and
also stimulates the output and flow Of
the gastric juice for the digestion of
other foods. In this way and by its
influence the food is properly digested,

Women's Duty to Vote

Here is some advice to women
from Senator Wesley L. Jones that
is worth thinking about:
'Since the women of this state
have been given the right to vote. it
is not only their privilege, but their
duty to exercise the franchise. 1t
is tie duty Of the teachers to inn
press upon their pupils and upon
the people with whom they have in
fluence that it is a duty to vote. not
privilege. have no doubt that, if
this is done. the state of Washington
will become an ideal state, and a
model for others of the union."
A good many women seem to
think voting is pastime which
may be INDUCED in now and then
and the power to help decide public
questions exercised whenever fancy
dictates. It is hardly necessary to
say such conception Of the Washing
ton woman's duty is entirely out Of
harmony with the spirit Of the franz
chise.

Keep The Roads
In Good Order

Now that the roads are so gen
orally good it would be almost GRIM
inal to let them go back to their Q d
time soft, rutty. rough, mud-hdle
state. when so little effort is re-
quired to keep them in fine con-
dition. Get split-log drag ready
and accept the first rain as an invi-
tation to smooth the road and push
a little dirt to the middle.
The breaking of long drouth is
usually gradual process. A choice
opportunity is thus afforded for
bringing neglected road into prop
er shape.
So get the road drag ready.
Use the drag when the soil is
moist but not sticky.
Do this and the road will remain
good all winter. But the work
must be continuous; if you fail once
then the rain-water will lodge in the
road after the next shower. And
water remaining on the road means
soft spots and mud holes.
Directions for building the drag
may he had for the asking from the
office of Public Roads at Washing
ton.

Death Of Mrs. G. A. IulIoch

After brave struggle of some
weeks duration against complica-
tion of incurable diseases, Mrs.
Glenn A. Tulloch succumbed to the
inevitable, passing away. at her
home on Argyle avenue at 2.30
o'clock on Wednesday morning.
The best medical skill, with the
devoted care of husband and rela-
tives were powerless to save her life.
though Mrs. Tulloch had been in
poor health for some months. it was
only during the past two weeks that
her illness became serious, and not
until Monday was her life despaired
of.
Mrs. Tulloch was the daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. 7. Stroud, Of
East Sound. She was born at PEN
dleton, Oregon. and was twenty-five
years old on the 18th Of September
last. She was married to Mr.. Tul-
loch at Deer Harbor, April IL, 1905.

The funeral services were held at
the Presbyterian church on Thurs
day afternoon. The interment was
in the Valley cemetary.
At the grave the Rebekah lodge

High Grade Stock PAYS

That it pays the people of this
section as well as those of any other,
to keep high grade stock, is borne
out by the experience of Hon. VIM.
Bishop, the well-known stockman OF
Chimacum. The high grade of the
fine Holsteins in the Puget Sound
herd owned by Mr.. Bishop is we'll
known all over the Northwest.
What stock of this class means to
the owner, however. is not so well
appreciated by those who have not
had the opportunity to make investi-
cations.
About three years ago Mr.. Bishop
bought a Holstein cow il the east,
paying $3.50 for t he animal. The
first calf was sold for $3.50. During
the recent county fair, twin heifers
mothered by the animal were dis
posed of to Chas. E. Peabody of Sc.
attic for 5000. Not long ago Mr.
Bishop sold the mother for $500
During the three years he has ownec
the fine animal, she produced eight
gallons of milk day. From the
sale Of the increase, together with
the amount received from the milk
and the selling price of the animal
Mr.. Bishop received altogether 8

Mr.. ROBT. MORAN PROTESTS

of Mr.. Moran, we do not think hi.
demand for an extra session Of the

not at all probable that the legisla.
ture would grant the relief he SC
much desires. If recent press dis.
patches are to be believed, Gov
Hay has already placed himself or

alton of President Taft. He woulG

ing the national and state commit
tees of the Republican party to ia
vor the calling of presidential pri
maries in all the states, so that the
voters generally may vote directly
for their choice for president. This
the committees can do without cere.
r.ony. But the millennium is not sc
near at hand that we may expect
office holders to abandon their of.

millions, and they may defeat any
nomination that may be made. but
they have not the power to nomin-

Alfalfa in Western Washington

Experiments conducted by the Sc
attic Experiment Station during the
past two seasons indicate that alf-
alta can be successfully grown in
many parts Of Western Washington.
Many former trials by farmers have
been unsuccessful. A few have suc-
ceeded and the conditions under
which a good permanent stand has
been obtained are the same as those
which have been worked out in the
stations experiments. They are as
follows:
The land must be we'll drained.
Alfalfa will not grow on sour, water
logged soil, or on land which is
overhowed for a considerable period
Of time.
The soil must be free from hard
pan to depth of at least five feet.
Alfalfa is a deep-rooting plant.
The seed must be planted early in
the spring on we'll prepared soil,
(preferably fall plowed,) and must
be seeded alone. Seeding with a
nurse crop invariably results in too
dry soil during the late summer.
The soil must be inoculated with
the alfalfa bacteria, preferably by
scattering over the land, at seeding
time, 800 to 400 pounds of soil from
a field in which alfalfa has been
growing successfully for at least
three years. The land should be
narrowed Immediately after scatter
ing the inoculating material. in
order to bury the bacteria where
the sun will not destroy them.
The alfalfa must be pastured the
first season. It may be clipped once
or twice in order to prevent weeds
from going to seed, but should be
cut as high as possible.

Some Church Statistics

The census of1890 found one hun
dred and forty-five religious de-
nominations in the United States.
CHASING Independent churches as
one denomination. By 1900 four Of
them had disappeared through con-
solidation with other denominations
and sixteen had ceased to exist in
dependently from other causes; but
sixty-one other denominations had
appeared making total number of
one hundred and eighty-six.
These many denominations claim
ed thirty-two million communicates.
and occupied church edifices with an
aggregate seating capacity of more
than fifty-eight millions. This was
equal to sixty-nine percent. of the
total population of the United States
in that year; but just what proper
tion might be found in church on an
average is very different matter,
with which the census dose not at
tempt to deal.
The various Protestant denomina-
tions claimed over twenty million
communicates; but the average
membership of each Protestant
church organization was only one
hundred and four There were one
hundred and forty-six thousand Pro-
estant ministers in the United
States; So the average Protestant
minister s flock numbered one hum
dred and thirty-seven souls on the
church register-with perhaps half
that number of really active mem.
bers. Evidently. under such condi-
tions, the average Protestant minis
ter's lot leaves much to be desired.
Many census figures nowadays re-
fleet a tendency to consolidate and
cooperate. Religious statistics are
in striking contrast to that tenden-
cy. Saturday Evening Post.
