GIVEN WEEK LAY OFF.
Washburn Baseball officials Suspended
by the Faculty.

1t was the sad duty of Duncan L.
McEachron, dean of Washburn col
lege, to announce in chapel Monday
the suspensions of two seniors for a
week. The seniors who drew the tin
ware are w. Roy George, manager of
baseball, and Shorty Bowman, cap
tain of the team.
These men, while General Overseer
Driver was over in Missouri on private
business, were placed in charge of the
Blue squad on western trip. They
thought they ought to have a better
catcher than the one intrusted to
them so they took Ray Nichols, an
amateur, who had enrolled but forgot
to pay his tuition.
man but the culprits did it in follow
ing an example set a week before by
the chairman of the eligibility COM
mittee. The professor who claims the
privilege of naming the eligibles per-
mitted four of his ineligible ones to
perform against the Kansas university
team. He was suspected of wanting
to win a game and in that was heartily
commended by the students-it was so
original on the part of the authorities
to care to win.
The suspension of course will gain
| loud and widespread acclaim of Wash
| burns honor. To further assist in
| showing the disapproval of the teams
| COURSE, the T6HldlHQOE VI the DdS6Ddll
schedule has been cancelled. And yet,
| the faculty committee who deals in
can, slipped in a peculiar clause and
announced that the suspension of the
seniors would not take place until
| Wednesday this week in order that
Bowman, who has part in the senior
play, might go ahead with that per-
Torrance and not inconvenience the
remainder of the class. It was to be
regretted, however, that the two
| would h1 fn
| banquet.
Something of the same character as
this baseball rupture occurred two
years ago when a pair of seniors got
| into the same trouble. There is no
| love for baseball among the athletic
| tribunal at the college and there is a
suspicion that they place the emphasis
strongly on the first syllable.

CH|LD'S HEAD SOLID
MASS OF HUMOR
It Was Awful. Cried Continually.
Had to Hold and Watch Him
to Keep Him from Scratching.
Suffering Was Dreadful.
Had not Used Half a Set of Cuticura
Remedies Before Head was Clear
and Free from Eczema.

ct think the Cuticura Remedies are
the best remedies for eczema have
ever heard Of. My mother had a child
who had rash on its head when it was
real young. Doctor called it baby rash.
He gave US medicine, but it did no
good. In a few days the head was
solid mass, q running sore. 1t was
awful, the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him Ito
keep him] from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last we
remembered Cuticura Remedies. We
got a dollar bottle of Cuticura Resell
vent, box of Cuticura Ointment, and
q bar Of Cuticura Soap We gave the
Resolvent as directed, washed the head
with the Cuticura Soap. and applied
the Cuticura Ointment. We had not
used half before the child's head was
clear and free from eczema, and it has
never come back again. His head was
healthy and he had beautiful head Of
hair. I think tho Cuticura Ointment
very good for the hair. It makes the
hair grow and prevents falling hair"

TOBACCO CROP PAYS WE'LL.
More Seed Than Ever Before Will Be
Planted in Leavenworth.

Leavenworth. Kan, May s.-Three
years ago some of the best white bur-
ley tobacco seed from Kentucky was
supplied free to those who wanted to
try the experiment, and Wiley Muir
ply, an old tobacco grower, gave those
Interested Information on how to plant
and care for the plants. Those who
tried were successful. The crop has
been sold and shipped, and the money
is now in Leavenworth banks.
The growing of tobacco in Leoven-
worth, therefore, is no longer an ex-
pertinent. The crop averaged about
two thousand pounds to the acre last
year, and the highest price paid was
1924 cents a pound.
Mr.. Hoffman, stove mouIder, owns
a little farm one mile southwest of
the city. and he engaged Perry Moore,
a young man who was working in the
Alternately furniture factory, to attend
his crop. Moore was from Kentucky
and knew how to raise tobacco. Hoff-
mans crops brought better prices than
those raised in Weston last year
More tobacco than ever before was
planted this year.

Novelty

"The New Alderman a playlet
taken from life, is one of the features
on the bill at the Novelty this week.
1t was written by George Edwards and
L. A. Lawrence, who put on the act.
They say it was founded on an Incl
dent which happened a their home
town, Providence, r. L, many years
ago. 1t deals with political graft and
the loyalty of politicians t their sup
porters. 1t is full of comedy and
pathos and makes hit" George
Edwards as Michael Casey is one
comedian who does not overdo the
Irish characters either in acting or
makeup. L. A Lawrence as tom
Sullivan the alderman, is exception
ally good.
Miss Marie Dorr, character come
dienne scores in her work. She i'm
personates different types. Among
other things, she gives an imitation of
Swede girl trying to recite Kipling' s
Vampire" which is irresistibly funny.

Majestic.

"The Girl From Out Yonder," pre-
scented by North Bros. at the Majestic
this week, in many respects is one of
the best bills seen at the theater this
season. And the company in this play
is at its best. The plot deals chiefly
with Capt. Amos Barton, lighthouse
keeper. Because of a crime which he
has been led to think that he himself
has committed while under the inf1u-
ence of liquor, twenty. years before
the time in which the play opens, he
gives himself up to the authorities.
Two years later, upon his return from
prison, the confession of a dying man
clears the captain from the crime.
His daughter, Flotsam, remains loyal
to him and takes care of the light
house while he is gone, meanwhile
educating herself by reading and
ward Elmer, a rich young civil en-
gineer, sends her.
The play is full of climaxes and
thrilling situations. Then there is a
great deal of fun. It is worth seeing
alone for the beautiful marine scenes
painted by Hugo Miller. the scenic
artist. There are lessons in the quaint
humor and wisdom of those who go
down to the sea in ships"
Perhaps Ira Herring as Captain
Barton showed the best of his abil-
| ity in old man parts. One of the fea-
Russell as "Fvlotsam' was the way in
which she brought out the develop
ment of the character from that of
careless young girl, to woman, ma
tured by study and responsibility and
trouble. Miss Clara Lamar as Cousin
Simonsin,' the old maid, who poses as
widow and makes her affinity pro-
pose thirty-fve times before accept
! ing him furnishes great deal OF the
comedy in her characteristic natural
ness. Orval Spurrier as Edward FL
mer'' was all thai could be asked for
| in his part.
! The other also did good work in
the cast, which is as follows: Ed
ward Elmer" Mr. Orval Spurrier;
Mrs. Elmer Miss Gene Fulmer;

COMPANY b OWNS ARMoRY.
Pay of Officers and Men Goes to Clear
OFF Indebtedness.

Holton, Kan, May 9.-The Holton
company of the Kansas National guard
Company B, First infantry-is the
only company in Kansas owning its
own armory. In fact, it is the only
armory in the entire state built espe-
cially for military work. This com
pany went to work and within two

for it as rapidly as possible and hav-
ing lot of fun and good place to
work besides.
for months. Then w. c. Bryant, city
engineer and also a nephew of the
poet, drew some plans for a complete
armory building. A retired merchant
had some land he was willing to sell
at $4,000 and let the boys pay for it
and stone and iron men also were
willing to furnish the material and
take notes for the amount.
The building is SO by 40 feet.
The company is a. corporation with
out capital stock orsprofit. The state
pays the company $50 month armory
rent. This forms the nucleus of the
debt paying fund. The state gives
cents and each noncommissioned Off
Ger and private 25 cents for each regu-
lar drill, two evenings each month.
This makes $34.50 a month to the
fund, as 1T has ben agreed that each
member must pay his share, whether
he attends drill and gets the state
money or not.
Twice each year there are inspec-
| tions and each inspection adds $81. 8
| in pay to the men, and the pay goes
into the treasury. The company thus
turns into the building fund s13O5. 35
of its own money. The drill hall is
rented four nights each week for $500
a year. Local talent shows and other
/ entertainments bring the total yearly
! income to more than $4,000.

Girl Meets Death Trying to Protect
wounded Man.

Milwaukee, May 9.-Emma Nelson
and Mabel Gilmore were shot and in
stantly killed and Joseph Unger was
seriously wounded at a resort here
early today by Charles Vance. a sta
tionary engineer of Racine, who then
killed himself. A quarrel between

vo1vers and shot Unger through the
breast, the Nelson girl threw herself
between Vance and him and was shot,
dying almost instantly. Mabel Gilmore
tried to escape but Vance shot her
also and she fell, dying as Vance killed
himself
AT the Emergency hospital it is said
Unger will probably recover.

OWN IDEA
Is Bound 10 Be Opposed by
the Farmers Union
of Texas.

HOUSTON. Tex, sug. 14-A diff
ficult situation arose within the
ranks of the farmers Union OF
Texas when it found organized
labor af the nation was against
their plan OF securing convict-oPer-
a4ed rope factories in Texas to IN
crease the consumption OF cotton.
This has long been cherished
nv the Farmers Union to promote
the use OF Texas cotton, which it
hoped would cause an increase in
price. 1t was proposed to place the
factory near Houston in place OF
the dismantled convict iron plant at
Rusk. The matter had gotten SO
far as the legislature when organ
ICED labor stepped in and placed
thumbs down on the project.
A4 a recent meeting at Fort Worm
w H wisner, OF New York, Presi-
dent OF the United Garment
workers of America, voiced the
protest of organized labor against
the proposed venture, apprising the
Farmers Union of an ethical over
sight. In consequence, IL rope fac
tory be established near Houston Il
win be manned by union labor ana
not by convicts.
