Competition 10 Great.

There were two distinguished claim
Snts for the post OF chief butler at the
coronation Of King Edward In 1909.
One was the Duke of Norfolk and the
other Lord Mowbray and Stourton. In
presenting their claims to the office
these men quoted the records Of pre-
vious coronations for several centuries
and produced musty court documents
OF great antiquity, which were submit
ted in proof Of the righteousness Of
their contentious. The Duke Of Nor
folk Is the premier duke Of England
and the most prominent Roman Catho-
lie. He Is also very wealthy.
The court OF claims, which has to do
with the settlement Of procedure at
the coronation function Is now In ses-
sion. 1t Is guided in its decisions by
established precedent The court dates
back to the reign of Richard H., 1877,
when John Gaunt. duke of Lancaster,
the lord high steward, kept his court
In Whitehall. Beginning with the cor
onation of Henry VIII. commissioners
were appointed to decide the questions.
and these commissioners were later
succeeded by the court OF claims The
only record of the court is the corona
tlon rolls on which the claims are set
down in some detail
At the coronation of King Edward
there were three claimants for the hon
or OF carrying the great spurs The
court refused to allow the claims of
any Of the three, leaving 1t open for
the present court to restore the right
to claimant. Carrying the spurs
meant more in the days when English
The king has plenty of spurs. but they
are without the glamour which comes

Many Rival Claimants.
Most Of the claims of right were al
lowed subject to the kings approval.
but in some cases there were rival
claimants. For instance, both the
Duke of Newcastle and the Earl Of
Shrewsbury claimed the right Of sup
plying the glove for the kings right
hand and supporting his majesty's
right arm while he is holding the scep-
ter and the first named claim was al
lowed
Three claims were made to the Office
of hereditary standard bearer OF Scot
land, the petitioners being the Earl of
Lauderdale. Henry Scrymgeour Wed
derburn and the Rev. R. G. Wedder
burn. Mr. Wedderburn's claim was al
lowed. and he was commanded to at
tend the coronation and did so. The
Earl Of Lauderdale, however, chal-
lenged the decision by bringing an &C
ton against the successful petitioner
in the court Of session, Scotland. he
succeeded there. but on appeal to the
house of lords the question was decid-
ed against him.
Another interesting claim was that
Of the Walker trustees to exercise the
Office Of usher Of the white rod, which
was bequeathed by Sir Patrick Walker.
former holder. and held BY trustees
Incorporated by act Of parliament.
They were allowed to be present by
deputy to be approved by his majesty.

SPEND \ FEW DOLLARS FOR
FLOWER BULBS.

Many Of our lady friend admire
the beautiful beds Of hyacinths and
tulips and narcissus in the spring:
but forget that these must be planted
in the fall. Now is the time TO plant
them.
For a gay show in spring set bulbs
Of the imported Dutch hyacinths.
The Dutchmen in their soil and eli
mate develop these bulbs to a greater
perfection than We can in this cOun-
try where they rapidly decrease IN
size of bloom The imported bulbs
can be bought now very cheapiy by
the hundred, n it does not take
much money to plant quite a large
bed.
Then there are the narcissus tribe
the daffodils and jonauiis in great va
-iety Of styles and shades. The most
SNOWY are the large ump narcls-
sus. One of the best Of these is the
Euperor. Then there is a large one
named Sir Watkin, and another Gold
enspur. Then, Of course. We want the
Poets Narcissus, with its white how-
ers and little red cups. Then another
of this family is the Paper White Mar
cissus. This species has been cOnSid-
erad tender mainly because when
planted early in the fail il starts to
grow at once, and will get injured by
cold. But if the planting is not done
till the soil is cold, the bulbs will
remain dormant and bloom in spring
This narcissus Is the best one for
blooming in bowls Of water and peb-
bles. 1t does far better in this way
than the Chinese NarciSSuS or Sacred
Lily of the Chinese. The flowers, too,
are more fragrant thar h Chinese.
The gayest Of the spring flowers is
the tulip. These are sold very cheap
". and a bed OF the early Due Van
Thol tulips Of different colors makes
a fine show when the colors are ar
ranged in rows or segments Of a cir
Gle in a circular bed. Then, there
are the snowy late blooming tulips.
especially the Darwin tulips. which
are good for following the little early
ones
It only takes a few dollars to get
quite a fine show Of these things. LAST
fall I failed to get my tulip bulbs as
early as ] desired, and they came
when the ground was hard frozen.
But during Christmas week the soil
thawed out, and I planted them, and
they made q very fine show in spring.
Still l would prefer to get these things
in earlier. But not only the Paper

dormant and bloom in late February.
But a better hyacinth for cutting,
one that makes longer spike than
the Roman is the White Italian. It
is later in bloc ming than the Roman,
but the spikes are larger and the
bulbs seem to suit the Southern cIi-
mate and do not deteriorate as the

larger it would be very desirable.
With the light frost | gather all the
green tomatoes of good size and wrap
each in paper and pack them in crates
and put in the cellar. Then l can
take out a few at a time n put them
IN a warm room to ripjen and often
have sliced tomatoes till January.
Can risk onions on ordinary soil
if l use two tonS of fertilizer an
acre." If the soil is light and sandy
you can make a fairly good crop with
heavy fertilization, and by following
the crop with peas to be turned I'M
der when mature, you can grow a
heavier crop the next season. In
fact, with a legume growth between
crops the onions can be kept on the
same land proftably for a good
many years.
Good lettuce is, doubtless, grown in
the South under canvass, but in the
long run the glass SaSheS are not only
better but cheaper. Q can grow
better lettuce under the sashes, and
when the frequent renewals Of the
canva is taken into consideration,
the glass will be found to be the
cheaper, though more costly at the
start.
At the Georgia station it was found
that cabbage plants set in an open
furroW lived better than those set on
the south or north sides OF ridges,
but more lived on the north side than
on the south side of the ridge. I tried
lettuce last winter in open burrows
and the plants did very we'll, but the
hot weather and drouth came so early
that most Of them ran to seed before
heading well. The Hanson n the
Wonderful lettuces are better for
wintering over outside than the Big
Boston,, as they do not u to seed SO
quickly.
My plants of the Big Boston lettuce
are now in the rames for the fall
crop. The glass will not be put over
them until freezing weather is threat
encd, and 1 hope to head them by
that time.

vices performed by the state grain In

chief inspector they shall be deposited
with the clerk of this court to await

The court took the matter under adj
visement, making a ruling that is tenn
porary ard that suits all parties con-
cerned until the case can be finally
disposed of. The railroads and elevator
companies at Kansas City, that are OPP
posing payment of the increased fees
provided for by the legislative enact
ment for weighing and inspecting grain
by the state department. are willing to
paw the fees every month to the court
but did not want to pay them to the
grain inspector until the court had
finally passed on the constitutiOnality
of the law.
The state grain department will have
to get along as best it can until this
case is disposed of early next fall I'm
der the law it can receive no money for
expenses beyond fees for inspection and
Weighing. Since the fees have been
held up pending an Interpretation of
the law the department has received
aid from the governors contingent

timed until the supreme court hands
down its decision in this case.

FRAZELL MUST ANSWER.
Charged With NegIecting to Get Lii
cense for Employment Agency.

Complaint was issued today against
J. M. F'razell. who neglected to pro-
cure a state license for the operation
of his employment agency at 112 East
Sixth avenue. 1t is the first case 70
be brought in this county under the
new employment agency law.
The recent legislature passed a law
providing that all employment agen-
eies should procure state licenses and
that promise to find employm e7t
meant something more than a few
words on a sign board. The law not
only requires the purchase of Ii
cense, but it says that failure to com
ply with promise to find work, con
stitutes a felony.
When the law went into effect Fra
zell forgot to change his course. Later
when a noficer invited Frazell to buy
a state license that officer was invited
to climb a tree" Now the law will

HELP FROM COLLEGE.
State Forestry Students Would
Have Practical Work.
Matter to Come Before City
Commissioners Soon.

If the proper terms can be obtained
from the parties applying for the job
it is probable that in the budget for
the year 1912 the city board of commits
ton of city forester be created.
This matter has been under consid-
Grafton by E. B. Stotts, commissioner
of parks, for some time. 1t was und er
advisement last year and the mayor and
council the year before tried to invent
some means of obtaining the money to
pay for the work
This year, if the budget results in a.
plentiful supply of funds after all the
maintenance work and necessary i'm
provements have been accounted for,
the commissioners will take up the
plication direct, has been filed with the
board. That of T. X. Jones which came
in the first of the week.
Trees Should Be Trimmed.
1t is declared by the city officials
that at no time in its history has To-
peka needed a systematic trimming of
trees as at this time. The city with
its worldwide reputation as a city of
beauty, with its wide streets and ave
nues and wide parkings-Topeka has
every need for a man to take charge
of the trimming of the trees
1t is planned at the beginning to
make arrangements with the state ag-
ricultural college to bring their classes
in forestry to Topeka. Under the di-
rection of their instructors and under
the supervision of the city forester,
they would have practical work in the
thinning and the nrIrniro of the shade
trees on the Topeka streets and ave-
nues.
This work could be done at certain
times of the year and in the mean
time the city forester could lay out
the work and do considerable thin
ming.
The trees on Topeka streets have
been allowed to grow for years with
out care. They are touching limbs
across the streets. In many cases they
hang down to the sidewalk and when
burdened with rain they drooD down
into the umbrellas and hats of pedes-
TRANS.
The city electric light department is
having no end of trouble in trying to
light the streets that are heavily
shaded. The trees have grown around
the arc lights on the corner until the
rays of the lamps shine directly be-
low to the pavement making only a
dome OF light to the street below and
having no effect on the streets them
selves.
Dead trees and dead limbs would be
removed by the city forester and every
precaution taken to save trees in times
of high winds and storms

WIFE WHIPS HUBBYs FRIEND.
Woman Who Used Horsewhip Before,
Has Learned to Box.

salina. Kan. July 2O.-A fstic en-
counter in front of local theater in
which Miss Lottie Simpson was the
unwilling opponent of Mrs. Matt Price,
and coincidentally the defeated con-
testant, is the talk of the town.
It was the second clash of the two
women. Mrs. Price having publicly
horsewhipped the other more than a
year ago.
When Mrs. Price went to a garage
last night to get her husbands auto
mobile she was told that Miss Simpson
had taken it out.
Mrs. Price located the roadster in
front of the theater. Patiently she
waited for nearly an hour until the per-
Torrance was over.
Miss Simpson came out of the theater
and tripped lightly across the sidewalk
toward the machine. She started the
engine and made ready to board the
car.
Thereupon Mrs. Price assailed her
husbands friend. The fight was on
Mrs. Price proved her fstic prowess
in less than one round. Down went her
opponent.
When the other woman regained her
feet. Mrs. Price let go with an upper
cut and her opponent started down the
street on the run. Without ceremony
Mrs. Price boarded the automobile and
drove away, leaving the crowd in A
hubbub of excitement and gossip over
the episode
Mrs. Prices husband is out of the
city
