PUT YOUR FRIENDS WISE

Willis B. Powell, of the Tampa board
of trade, supplies the following infor-
nation, which every reader should
forward to any friend in another
state who contemplates moving to
Florida:
There has been considerable COM
plant from all over the state from
settlers who have shipped household
goods from other states to Florida
They prepay the freight on the house
hold goods at shipping point and when
the goods arrive in Florida they are
obliged to pay additional freight be-
fore they can get their goods from the
railroad.
There is an exception sheet APP
plicable to Florida which the Northern
railroad agent overlooks, which causes
the trouble.
II real estate agents and others
would advise their friends or custo-
mers to have their household goods
released at $40 per 100 to Jacksonville
or High Springs, Fla. and for SIS per
100 from those points to interior
points of Florida all this trouble and
overcharge would be obviated
The $40 release on the bill Of lading
from Jacksonville or High Springs tc
goods in a higher classification. If re-
leased at So per 100 the classification
would be the same from shipping point
through to destination, and there
would be no extra charge to pay.

WRIGHT MAKES DENIAL
Man sued for Alienation Denies He
Ran Away With Mrs. Geitz.

From Fort Collins, Col, comes the de-
NAL of M. c. Wright in the charges
against him for stealing the affections OF
Mrs. Geitz, neighbor, and clipping with
her. The grieved Mr.. Geitz recently
brought suit against Wright for $500 to
salve his wounded heart and now Wright
says there are things in his neighbor' 5
petition which are not true
Wright, who is a barber, owns property
here and in the heated spell of last sum
mer, he sometimes took Mrs. Geitz for
motorcycle rides. He doesn't deny this.
But Wright says he never stole the af-
fections of his neighbor's wife and more
over he mas been a kind and obliging
neighbor and citizen and denies that he
should be punished for trying to show
Mrs. Geitz a good time
Il want to deny everything that was
printed about me except the motorcycle
rides" Wright says in his letter. Mr..
Geitz put his wife the machine and
tied a string around her skirt and said
take her a good rider and then he says,
I don't give a - if she never comes
back ,"
Then Wright concludes his defense
with the statement. II loaned Geitz $50
to send his wife to her parents on a
visit; and for which he owes me yet"
Since leaving Topeka last summer,
Wright has been living in Fort Collins,

DELAWARE HITS DIXIE
Only Good Luck Prevents Costly Naval
Accident.

New York, Dec. 4.-The auxiliary
cruiser Dixie will be put in dry dock
at the Brooklyn navy yard this week
as the result of a collision with the
dreadnought Delaware, in the navy
yard basin. The big battleship ram
med the smaller vessel with enough
force to have sunk a n0rdinary boat,
but the usual good luck that has been
with the American navy in all its his
tory again was in evidence and the
shock was distributed so evenly that
the cruiser escaped with a bad Shak-
ing up and a temporary list. The
damage, it is believed, will amount to
nothing more serious than a posi-
BILE forcing of some of the plates be-
low the water line.
The dreadnought was being taken
by tugs to a new berth to make room
for the battleships Michigan and
South Carolina. A strong tide took
the ship out of the control of the tugs
and it had just enough Roadway to
send it bow-on in the direction of the
Dixie. The tugs made frantic efforts
to prevent the crash. but in vain.
Officers See Crash Coming.
The big battleship crept up on the
Dixie with her ram pointing straight
for the cruisers starboard bow. Off
megaphoned orders in rapid success
sion and blue jackets scampered out
in obedience to hurried commands
All expected to see a huge hole torn
in the Dixie's side by the ram of the
dreadnought, but when only a few
inches separated the two boats, the
Delaware veered slightly and hit the
Dixie a sidelong blow and the ram
glanced off without doing any ma
terial damage. The impact shook the
cruiser, ratified her rigging and gave
her tilt to port. Then the dread
nought eased away and the danger
was over.
Before the battIeship was under
control again, however, the deadly
ram pierced the hull of a steam
launch which had put out to give
emergency aid. The launch sank but

GROWING GRAY HAIRED
DIR Estey Talks About Growth and
Decay.

A large congregation heard DR.. S. S.
F.stey speak Sunday morning on the
subject "Growing Gray Haired" Prob
ably the title attracted a few at least
OF the curiously inclined to the place
of worship, but if they did so they
were probably disappointed, because
the subject was not applied in the
manner that one might possibly imply.
The sermon dealt largely with spiritual
deterioration and was strong one

said the speaker. zone of the most in
teresting forces in nature is the con
tinual contest going on between the
forces of life and death. The garden
is all green in color; yet how constant
for their own. The decayed flower
shows the forces Of death have con-
qGered
'.Drummond said; when the life
forces cease to grow, corruption be-
gins It is the same as regards our
spiritual nature. The moment you
cease to grow, that moment deteriora-
ton begins. Our souls are not alike in
any two successive moments.
Life passes so swiftly, we scarcely
notice the changes. Only growing life
has power to combat the forces of life
and decay. This explains why so many
people active in the church today in
year are useless in their service for
Christ. This change may come about
through the call of the shop, the pres
sure of business, or through the invi-
tation of some friend. No man be-
comes fagrantly dishonest all at once.

exactly dishonest but was question

ELKS WHO HAVE GONE
Topeka Lodge Hears Tender Senti-
ment at Memorial Service.

Memorial day as observed by the
EIks is a sacred service but not neces-
Sarily a mOurnful one" said James L.
King, state librarian, in speaking at
the annual memorial occasion Of local
capter No. 204 Sunday afternoon in
the EIks' home. 1T is a day of tender
and fragrant memories rather than of
sad reflections or gloomy IOrebodlngS-
In obedience to one of the customs of
the order this service is being per-
formed today in nearly every city in
the United States having population
of < 900 or over This means that
more than 1900 lodges are assembled
as Topeka lodge is assembled, and that
more than 100000 Elks are at this
time uniting in a tribute of affection
to brothers who have jOurn6yed away
from the watch fires of the order.
$50 far as I know there is no other
organization in existence that cllngs
so firmly to the memories of its alb
sent brothers, or pays them such I'M
falling honor. We have a ceremony
announcing the death of a brother,
funeral ceremony, another ceremony
when his name is inscribed upon our
memorial tablet, and we have this an
nual service of remem brance on the
first Sunday in the month of Decem-
ber.''

was colder. windier and less cloudy than
usual. The minimum temperature, AS
degrees, though very much below the
average, is not the lowest November
temperature recorded here. The rain

heavy fall of snow, inches in depth,

AFTER LYNCH'S JOB
stin Fight to Oust Him Planned by
c. Webb Murphy.

New York, Dec. although it has
been generally supposed that all was
serene in National league politics on
the eve of the annual meeting here, it
became known in baseball circles to-
day that stiff fight to GUST President
Thomas J. Lynch is being planned by
two or three club owners. The result
promises to be a battle royal at the
meeting next week, and it is question
able whether Lynch can be reelected
to the Office he has held for the past
two years.
Reports have it that the magnets
who are opposing Lynch are Murphy
of Chicago, Ebbets of Brooklyn and
Fogel of Philadelphia The scheme is
said to involve the installing in the
presidential chair of John d. O'Brien,
former president of the American as
ISOLATION. Other names mentioned in
this connection are Robert Brown of
Louisville and John NJ. Ward of New
York, who were suggested as candi-
dates when Lynch was elected two
year sago.
Murphy Leads Opposition.
Charles W. Murphy, president of the
Chicago Nationals, was in New York
few days ago and called upon Presi-
dent Brush of the New York club. Mr.
Brush, it is believed, is strong for
Lynch, who among his other supporters
numbers Hermann of Cincinnati and
Dreyfuss of Pittsburg. How Boston
and St Louis will line up is not known.
Lynch cannot be ousted unless there
are five votes against him
The anti-Lynch faction, it is said,
will harp on the need of harmony
among the club owners as a reason for
getting rid of their present chief of
staff
One of the most important details
to be acted upon will be the adoption
of the resolution proposed last Febru-
airy which will make it a crime punish
able by fine for any member of the
National league executive committee
to speak for publication concerning
details that have transpired at the ses-
sion The penalty of $3.50 is provided
for the first offense, $500 for the sec
and 1000 for the third.
President Murphy of the Cubs is de-
cidedly in opposition to this proposed
action and strongly advocates making
the National league meetings as open
as possible.

BENNETT IS FOUND GUILTY.
Wife Murderer Gets Of With Second
Degree Conviction.

Pittsburg. Kan, Dec. 1.-The jury in
the case of James Bennett, charged
with the murder of his wife. Jennie
Bennett, January 8, 1911, rendered a
verdict of second degree murder after
being out a little over two hours. A
strong effort was made by the defend
ant and his attorneys. to hide behind
an insanity plea, but it was not strong
enough to impress the jury. It was
shown in the evidence that if Bennett
after he had talked to some particular
Fl lends and told them that he intended
to kill her. Jealousy is. believed to have
been the incentive for the murder, but
without cause. A rehearing VIII be ask
ed for.
