BREAKING A CUSTOM.
How the Salt Shaker Was introduced
to the Spaniard.


Until a few years ago no Spaniard
had ON his dining table any other re-
ceptacle for salt than the old style
open cellar An enterprising Rriton
saw this, noted that the salt was al
ways dirty and gummy and deter
mined to Introduce certain famous
salt shaker from which clean salt
would run freely in the dampest
weather. Bravely he started to tour
Spain for the company.
"No, senor; no est costumbre usar
mas quo esto'' Ono, sir; it's not Gus
tomary to use more than that'-the
| old CELLAR, was the answer OF every
dealer to whom he presented the nov
city. Again and again he was re-
buffed. He began TO despair when,
standing one day gazing into jew
eler's window, a brilliant idea struck
him. He entered. Realizing the child
like curiosity and impressonable char
acter of his quarry, he persuaded the
jeweler to display a shaker in his
window and coached him about sell
ing it. A Spaniard came along, look

Willing to Be Martyrs.


Some years ago French tradesman
stated that he wished to be guillotined
instead of a murderer who had been
condemned to death. OF course the
authorities declined to do as he wished.
and he went away vowing that he
would give his life for some one else
later on.
A Russian peasant who was noted
for his quiet piety offered to be shot In
order to save revolutionary who was
awaiting the carrying out of the death
penalty. This, he said, was not done
out of any sympathy for the accused,
but merely to show his disapproval of
the principle of taking lives Of Grim
inals.
Probably the most extraordinary case
on record was that of Quebec citizen
who passed himself off as murderer
for whom the police were searching
When the matter was investigated il
was found that the self accused man
had nothing whatever to do with the
crime NO" he said. you're right

One morning during the reign OF

charged him with the formation Of

man hastened to reply to the king:
"T have only one regret, which is
that l cannot wiring your neck like

A few lines lower down there was
another paragraph running to the fol-
lowing effect:
"The efforts of justice have been
promptly crowned with success. The
murderer of the Rue du Pot-de-Fer has
been arrested in house of bad reputa-

HOLD LONG CONFERENCES.
Standard Oil Attorneys Have Session
With Attorney General.

The Kansas attorneys for the Standard
Oil company had a long conference yes
terday afternoon with the attorney gen.
eral. There were present Earl E. Evans
of Wichita, S. w. Fitzpatrick of Independ--
ence, J. d. Mcfarland of Topeka and
Robert w. Stewart of Chicago. The main
object of the conference was the discus
sion of the arguments the Standard Oil
antitrust case before L. w. keplinger,
the special commissioner of the supreme
court in the case. The final arguments
have been held for several weeks while
the attorneys have been waiting for the
decision in the government case. This
decision has been so long delayed by the
supreme court that it has been decided to
go ahead with the Kansas case.
Even If the Kansas supreme court
should find that the Standard is trust
it is not expected that it will be ousted
from the state. 1t is probable that the
same plan will be followed in this case
as in the International Harvester COM
pany case, the court taking over super
visory control over the business of the
company and as long as the company fol-
lowed the instructions of the court and
did not violate any of the laws of the
state or court rules no further proceed
ings would be brought against it.

KILE is TURNED BACK.
He Must Go to Missouri Penitentiary
to Serve Term.

Governor Stubs has granted the re-
QUESTION for the return of Daniel Kile
to Missouri officials to be taken to the
penitentiary for a five years term for
highway robbery in St. Joseph. When
he was being taken to the Missouri prison
Kile was taken from the Missouri sheriff
under a writ of habeas corpus issued by
the probate judge of Wyandotte county on
the ground that Kile was being illegally
held in custody in Kansas by a Missouri
official ]. A. Hale, attorney for Kile
urged that Kile was not a fugitive from
Justice as he had never attempted to run
away from the Missouri officials but had
been taken away by a Kansas sheriff.
The governor granted the requisition as
the attorney general told him that Kile
was to be regarded as a fugitive. The
habeas corpus is to come up today in
Kansas City. In the meantime the at
torneys are preparing an injunction suit
to be brought to prevent Kile being taken

stockmen thought about it. This is the
answer Mercer sent to the congressman:
Am opposed to taking tariff off any

that Interests" are driven from pol

Marshall, THAT Saccharine. which is
about six hundred times sweeter than

lions dangerous TO public health. In
some mysterious manner this was set
aside until January IL and cannot
refrain from calling attention to the
fact that Secretary MacVeagh Is the
largest wholesale grocer In the city OF

money power. not only upon the
rights and opportunities of the
average man, but also upon political

rights have been wrenched away from
us or whether our intelligence and
conscience have cared so little that we
have voluntarily yielded them?
