How to Care for a Watch.

Never get into the habit of holding
the stem and winding the watch. Al
ways hold the watch and wind the
stem. If you will try both ways You
will see what is meant and perhaps
find that you have bad habit. More
over, wind the watch as nearly as pos
sible at the same time every day. Eth
er hang the watch up on small hook
on the wall or when you lay it down
always put something soft under it,.
Do not keep it in too hot or cold a
place. Do not carry your watch in
a bag or poczetbook. The best way
is to pin it strongly under your dress.
Do not wear a watch on fob UNI
less you are willing to lose it. About
once year send your watch to be
cleaned and regulated. Handle it care
fully otherwise and it will be prompt
and efficient servant for generations.

And fifth on the list Monroe
The sixth, an Adams, comes again,
And Jackson seventh in the train.
Van Buren, eighth upon the line,
And Harrison counts No 0.
The 10th is Tyler, in his turn.
And Polk the llth as we learn.
The 18th is Taylor that appears,
The 18th Fillmore, fills his years.
Then Pierce comes l4th into view;
Buchanan is the 18th due
Now Lincoln comes, two terms to fill
But God DER rules the peoples viii.
And johnson fills the appointed time
Cut short by an assassin's crime,
Now Grant assumes the lofty seat.
The man who never knew defeat.
Two terms to him; then Hayes succeeds
And quietly the nation leads.

PROTEST TO SILVER
FOR BATTLESHIP

New York. Mar. 1.-The Presbyter
ian Minister'S association of New
York and vicinity has adopted resolu
tons protesting ''as citizens and pa
triots against the proposed presenta-
ton Of a silver service to be placed
on the United States battleship, Utah,
as the gift Of the state of Utah"
This service" continues the resolu-
ton, " bearing the portrait of Brigham
oYung and picture of the Mormon
temple at Salt Lake City, will discred-
it the state making the gift and be a
disgrace to the nation if it is accepted.
The insolence of this proposal calls
for immediate and empathetic resent
ment. The insignia of church has no
place in the service of a United States
Young and picture of the Mormon
church so placed is an insult to the
Christian people of the whole coun-
try"

TO Be TRIED FOR
OIL MANS MURDER
A. 0. Truskett to Answer for
Staying of a Lima, Ohio,
Capitalist.
(American News Service)


Independence, Kan, March 1.-The
March term of the circuit court about
to convene here will be made notable
by the trial of AL o. Truskett for the
alleged murder of John ID. S. Nicely, a
prominent capitalist whose home was
In Lima, o. Truskett shot and killed
Nicely in the Palace hotel in the town
southeast of here on the morning of
January last.
The slain man was president of the
Lima Trust company in his home city
and was also the head of several large
oil companies in the kansas-Okla-
homa feld. including the Wichita Pipe
Line company. The shooting was the
result of litigation over an oil lease.
On the day before the tragedy Mr..
Nicely had arrived in Caney on his reg
ular monthly inspection of oil and gas
interests. The following morning Mr.
Nicely was sitting in the hotel Office
reading Il letter. Truskett. sitting OPP
posite, watched him closely. When
Nicely got up and walked toward the
rear of the hotel Truskett hurried
around to the sample room. AS Nicely
passed the door of this room Truskett
fired at him twice. One bullet passed
through Mr.. Ncely's heart and the 9TH
er through his left arm. When en-
ployes of the hotel reached the pros
trate man he was dead. Truskett
surrendered Immediately and was hur.
ried in an automobile to the county
Jail in this city.
The killing is believed to have been
largely the result of law suit that
had long been pending between Trus-
kett and the Wichita Pipe Line com
pany of which Nicely was president.
According TO his friends Truskett was
OF the belief that the company was
trying to rob him of his rights The
litigation was over n lease to tract
of oil land Il few miles south of Caney.
Robert +. Goodman a minor Indian.
| who owned the tract, sold his interest
several years ago to Hugh Benson. an
oil man, who later disposed of it to a
local oil firm for $500. Truskett paid
this firm $500 for the lease. Shortly
afterward the Wichita Pipe Line COM
pany claimed the lease of the tract al
| leging that it had come into posses
/ sion of 1t by lease from parties said to
be interested in the Wichita com.
pany, The company asserted that the
/ lease to Truskett was not according to
law. as the Indian boy Goodman was
not OF age when he signed away his
rights TO the property. Truskett as
serted that the pipe line company had
used undue influence on the Indian
boy. had kept him constantly under
watch and had finally bought from
him the lease on the day he came of
| age.
| Public sympathy in this section is
largely on the side of Truskett owing
in great measure to the popular pre-.
JUDGE against the pipe line company
and its affiliated corporations because
of the methods they have pursued in
the past Relatives and friends of the
alleged slayer have raised a $4,000
fund and have employed eminent
counsel 10 conduct his defense The
coming trial is expected TO be one OF
the most notable that has taken place
in this section of Kansas in many
years.
