SITES FAVORED FOR
FARMERS MARKET
Various Locations are Sug-
gested as Desirable for Dis
playing Farm Products

The recent discussion by the
business mems club and the coun-
Gil of the hay wagons on North
Grant has brought up the question
of sites in the city to be distinctly
set aside as market places for the
farmers. AS the SantaFe tracks
divide Chanute so as to make one
thoroughly central location impossi
BILE to secure, two plots Of ground
would seem necessary. Inc vacant
quarter Of block south and east Of
the Allison feed stable has been used
to a considerable extent ty farmers
who drive in from east of the city
VIII hay. 1t is but block IF o.
Main street as is the portion CT
North Grant used by the farmers
from the west. The discussion how
ever has been with the idea tina,
Chanute really needed one or more
places wnere the farmers coulo
gather with products other than hay
fJr sale. In most instances they
dispose of such produce as melons,
ruit, potatoes and poultry direct to
he grocers but arrangements fol
the sale of corn and livestock would
seem desirable. Besides ,the sites
now used others have been sug
gested. For the west side the
ground in west of the Santa F.
freight depot has been recommend
cd. The quarter of block back OF
The H t ick theater has been sug.
gested for the cas-, side. No def
mite action has been taken as yet
but at least one CT the council has
said that he believed that the city
rather than the business mems club
should assume the responsibility.

WELLS CAPTURED BY
MISSOURI POLICE
Negroes Reported Seeing Him
in Nevada---W Wrote Letter
to His Victim

Will Wells the negro who stabbed
Mrs. Fanny Tally week ago Sun
day night on East Main street was
arrested by the police of Nevada,
Missouri, Saturday morning and
placed in Jail in that city. The
location of Wells was brought about
by information secured from negroes
in Chanute by Chief of Police Van
Sandt. Mrs. William Hale phoned
to her husband last Friday evening
from Nevada that she had seen
Wells in the city. He discussed
the news with negro girl from
whom Chief Van Sandt secured il
in an interview with her in his
Office. Early Saturday morning he
reported the rumor to Sheriff W.
E. Reynolds at Erie who in turn
notified the officers at Nevada.
Information as to the hiding
place of Wells was also received
Saturday morning by Chief Van
Sandtthrough long letter written
by the negro to MIS-. Tally which
she promptly communicated to
police headquarters. In it Wells
vigorously stated his love for her
and that the stabbing incident
would not have occurred had he
not been drinking. The letter was
unsigned and the envelope which
was mailed from N.vada was
addressed to another woman al
Mis-. Tally's address, 5z1 East
Main. The woman is however In
no mood to receive endearing terms
kindly and desires to do everything
in her power to have Wells punished
for the injury he has inflicted upon
her.
When chief VanSandt reported
the contents of the letter to Sherfi
Reynolds about II O'Clock Saturday
morning he learned that the Nevada
authorities had reported the deten-
ton of Wells. VAnSandt sent q
warrant to Reynolds on the after
noon train with the instructions tt
bring Wells here for preliminary
trial. Walter Peterson the negro
who was sworn in early last week as
a special officer gave up the search
for Wells Wednesday evening. Fl Ah
however is claiming that he is en-
titled to half of the SIS reward.

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS
TO LEARN COOKERY
Domestic Science Course /:
Thoroughly Practical and
Truly Educational.

When the High School opens next
Tuesday the worl, will begin at once
in the Domestic Science course
which is not only new in the Cha
mute school but also is only recent
addition in other city and county
high schools in Kansas. The south
room on the lower floor of Pioneer
building is being fitted up for the
work in cookery and sewing, and
will afford excellent facilities for the
work. Superintendent ]. F. Hughes
states that under the instruction of
Miss Alice Lindell the student in the
new course will be able to carry on
successfully all the plans outlined by
the State Board of Education in the
syllabus recently issued by them.
Two terms work will be offered in
cooking, one unit for the first terms
work and one for the second. Prac-
tice work in cooking will be done
two days each week, on which days
the work will take two periods. On
other days one period will be tie
length of the recitation:
Students will be taught the deve,-
opment of primitive to mode n
methods of cookery, the physics of
heatsproduction and the efficiency
and economy of different fuels, and
information about foods in general
such as their classification, use and
methods by which they are made
available. In the laboratory they
will work out the preparation and
serving of the various general
classes of foods with respect to the
underlying principles of cookery and
the securing of ideal results. They
will study leavening agents and -four
mixtures, and will not neglect the
consideration of salads and frozen
dishes. The proper foods for in
valids will also receive attention.
The purpose of a course in do
mestic science is twofold. 1t has
both a social and an educational as
pect. From a social point of view,
it dignifes manual labor, it brings
the school into closer relation with
the home and the community, with
an uplifting influence on both and
teaches that home making is pro-
fession requiring training just as
truly as does that of the doctor or
the lawyer. Educationally, it cor
relates with all other school work to
so great degree as to furnish ap-
plication for much in education that
may otherwise appear formal, it
trains the head to purposeful think
ing and teaches the hand to obey the
thought to its own greatest efici-
ency.

IT had been rumored among the EN-
ployes that the plant was to cease cp-
erations altogether

tons has begun to arrive and it i.
thought that the building will bo di

See Struggle for Control
After Mr.. Bayard's Speech

Many Democrats are much inter-
ested in the statement Of Thomas F.
Bayard regarding the Democratic
presidential situation. which was con-
strued as voiclng the Opposition OF
Mr.. Bayard TO Governor Woodrow VIII
son, of New Jersey for president and
a preference for Governor Judson
Harmon. OF Ohio.
Some Democrats today professed to
believe that the statement OF Mr.. Bay
ard forecasted q division OF the Della
ware Democrats into the old stand-
pat or reactionary group on one side
and q progressive faction on the other
side. Mr. Bayard always has been
aligned with the conservatives IN the
party to whom the doctrines Of Bryan
and other progressives never have ap-
pealed very strongly.
Some Democrats today were Won
derlng whether there is some local
Significance back Of Mr. Bayard's
statement, and Il has some Of tho
other leaders guessing. Just why Mr.
Bayard should have gotten out this
early I'm a way that Is regarded as
antogonistic to Governor Wilson, waa
more than some Of the Democrats
could explain. and some minated
chat II might be the beginning OF a
struggle between the reactionaries
and the progressives for control Of
tho party In Delaware.

DELAWARE
WANTS OFFICE
Will Ask Taft on Saturday to
Name Delaware Nan
Collector
WILL NOT URGE ANY
NAME FOR THE PLACE

When United States Senator Henry
A. DUPONT and CONGRESSMAN William
II. Heald confer with President Taft
on Saturday next relative TO the col
lectorship Of Internal Revenue which
position is vacant Phillips l.. Colds
borough. the collector. having been
elected Governor Of Maryland, the
Delaware delegation will have figures
refutlng those made recently concern
ing the percentage Of the Delaware
receipts in the office.
II was recently stated that Delaware
contributed but three per cent Of the
total amount received in the district,
but those figures appear to have been
old ones. as the total receipts Of tho
office embracing both Maryland and
Delaware total about $4,000 000l OF
this amount about S1,000,0O0 comes
from this State. which amounts TO
about 10 per cent OF tho total. This
increase in the receipts from Della
ware is due to the revenue paid by the
Snuff Mills at Yorklyn coming through
the local revenue office whereas II
formerly went TO the Pennsylvania
district.
Another argument TO be used by the
delegation will be the fact that while
Former Collector Goldsborough resid-
ed In Maryland he was farther from
the Office then had he lived in Della
ware. Residing on the Eastern Shore
OF the state IL required several hours
travel for him 90 reach the Balti-
more Office while one from Whining
ton could reach that city within an
hour. John b. Hanna, who Is acting
collector at present and who is being
urged for the position, lives at Havro
de Grace, forty minutes by rail from
this city.
Il is understood that the Delaware
delegation will not urge any partieu-
lar person for the position but they
will insist that the collectorship be
given to resident Of this state. Or
i. II. Ball is said 90 be the first choice
Of the Delaware delegation.

DEATH PENALTY
FOR ASSAULT
Colonel Roosevelt Advocates
Delaware Law for Pro-
lection of Women
LEGAL DELAYS OFTEN THE
CAUSE OF LYNCHINGS
By The United Press.

By The United Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-Declaring
that legal delays often result in ex-
hibitions of lynch law, and demand
ing that criminal assault upon women
be made a capital crime for which
there must be an immediate trial, as
in Delaware. Theodore Roosevelt in
the current number of the Outlook to-
day attacked lynching in unmeasurod
terms.
"The repeated race riots and iynca-
ings that have occurred in the aorth-
ernern states during the last decade
must have convinced the least OBJ
servant that neither race feeling nor
the tendency to lynching is in a sense
peculiar to the South. It is a horrible
thing for which the whole country
must bear responsibility.
But mere denunciation Of the crime
Of a mob amounts to little or nothing.
We must recognize what the facts are
that excite the mob to act Dreadful
though it is for the mob spirit to ne
reused in a community by such a crime
it would he an even worse calamity II
the community did not feel the fury Of
Indignation which produces the mob
spirit There is no question that there
aIe serious brealzdowns in the admin
istration of justice in American slow
ness in deciding cases, readiness to
admit appeals, the subordination Of
justice to legal technicalities, the irri-
tating delays in getting the machin-
cry of the law into motion and the ut
terly improper attention paid by the
courts to the sharpness of lawyers in
invoking technicalities-al of these
result in frequent miscarriages of
justice and in DELAYS which if long
enough amount especially in their eff
feet upon the public to an absolute
miscarriage Of justice"

CRITICISES
CHANNEL PLAN
Prof. Haupt. Says Dyke Work
Delays Delaware Channel
Deepening
REPORT IS MADE AT
PHILADELPHIA MEETING

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. Nov. 2S--
Condemnation Of the methods being
used by United States engineers in the
work of giving Philadelphia thirty
flve-foot channel in the Delaware
river, from Allegheny avenue 10 the
sea, came yesterday from business
men and engineers in this city who
are familiar with the channel digging
practice.
One Of the criticisms is the insist
ence In dumping back into the river
mud which the government dredges
have dug out of the channel path.
Figures of Major Deakyne, u. S. engi-
neer, printed in his last annual re-
port on the Delaware river project
show that 2,696,513 yards Of material
we're dredged from the channel and
pumped overheard TO settle In the
channel, and make necessary re-
dredging of the shoaling spots thus
built up This total Is more than
twice the amount of material dredged
and deposited on shore TO reclaim
wasted land area.
Another criticism is Of the plan 20
build in the Delaware river. at va
rious points. dikes. behind which he
hopes to create new dumping grounds
for dredged material Dixie construc-
tion has its advantages in helping to
keep a channel clear, in the opinion
of engineers. but they say, the loca-
tions selected by Major Deakyne for
his dikes are at points in the river
where they will do more harm than
good. for the reason that they will
prevent a proper inflow and outflow OF
the tides, and will thus have ten
dency to create eddies which lit the
mud from the bottom of the channel
and deposit it at points either above
or below the dikes, where II viii be
imperative to again dredge It out
IL was Prof. Lewis NJ. Haupt, an en-
giner with an international reputation
on channel construction method whS
called attention to the alleged faulty
dixie construction methods OF Deakyne
