Manhattan. Kan, Dec. 2S.-Every man

program outlined for the Farmers State
institute. Particular attention has been
given to classes for high school teach

Judging in live stock and crops. Other
classes will be devoted to teaching the

These clGsses will continue for three
days.
OF particular interest to these teach
ers, also, are today's sessions of the
Central Kansas Teachers association.

IT'S LIEN ON PROPERTY
Inheritance Tax Must Be Paid, Tax
Commission Declares.

The state tax commission has ruled that
in case of the inheritance tax remaining
unpaid that fact shall rest as a lien
against the property. and it warns alb
stracters to consider this unpaid tax the
same as a mortgage. The commission
says. in its statement:
ITO abstracters of title it is earnestly
suggested that in order to avoid liability
attaching to them by reason of omissions
in showing the lien imposed by law, they
should certify no abstracts until the ques-
ton of liability or nonliability of the real
estate to tax is determined by the au-
thorities who are charged with that duty.
Purchasers OF real estate, the title to
which has passed by reason of the death
of the former owner, are also cautioned
to have the question of title carefully in
vestigated before they complete tTansac-
tons, as by not doing so they may incur
liability which they must themselves dis
charge or have cleared at the expense of
much trouble and possibly cost to them

Benton. Ark. Dec. 2S.-Because he

death and hanged himself. The bodies
of the children were found in their
beds, each of their skulls being

The body of Mrs Grant was found

she was killed as she was about to re-
tire. A heavy club covered with blood
was found in the house and it was ap-
parent it was with it Grant killed the
seven mem bers of his family
The children ranged in age from )
to Is years.
Hugh Grant. a 16-year-old son, only
member of the family alive, discovered
the bodies today when he returned
from a holiday celebration at a neigh
boring farm. He found a note signed
by his father, which explained that

GorCH PICKS MUNRO LEMON.
Champion Downs EneIishman Twice
in Twenty Minutes


Kansas City, Dec. 2S.-Frank
Gotch, worlds wrestling champion, de-
feated Alex Munro, the English cham
pion in straight falls here tonight.
The first fall came in 2 minutes and
the second in 8 minutes, seconds,
each with a half Nelson and crotch
hold.
1t was the easiest match Gotch has
had for several years The English
man displayed but scant knowledge of
the game and Gotch, it seemed to the
spectators. merely played with him.
The champion secured his falls by
getting a half Nelson while he was
raising Munro high in the air Gotch
brought the Englishman down to the
mat and affiXing the crotch hold cas-
lily gained the first fall in II minutes
flat The second fall was even easier,
the champion still adhering to the
successful hold of the first fall. The
OF his retirement, Gotch said after
the match:
There was a certain brook of poetic
tradition that ram bled on forever, but

water I feel that 7 am probably bet

said looked the next best.

TOO MUCH COAL
Depression in Prices Due to an Over
production.

Washington. Dec. 2S.-There was an
overproduction of coal this year, and
a consequent struggle for trade which
depressed prices, in the opinion ex-
pressed by Edward W. Parker, coal
statistician for the United States geo
logical survey. Mr.. Parker added that
there had been few more unsatisfa c.
tory years in the history of the coal
mining industry. and that prices were
depressed to such an extent that when
the total returns for the year were
footed up, the balance probably would
be on the wrong side of the ledger, al
though the production of coal in the
United States for the year probably
was second only to the record year of
1910
The total production of coal for the
year is estimated at 49O.0OO,0OO tons,
only 100000 less than in 1910. Of
this years production, 400, 900, 600 tons
was bjtuminOus coal.

STILL HE WON'T GO
Colonel Roosevelt Again Declines In
vitation to Peace Banquet.

New York. Dec. 2S.-AIthough Presi-
dent Taft is to be the guest of honor
and Andrew Carnegie is down on the
program as honorary president. the
pending arbitration treaties with Great
Britain and France, for which Mr. Taft
has labored and which Mr.. Carnegie has
endorsed. are not to be brought Off
cially before the citizens peace banquet
to be held at the Waldorf-Astoria Sat
urday night. At least this is the plan
of majority of the executive commit
tee voiced by Willard J. Boomer the
executive secretary. The committee had
reached this decision said Bloomer.
after he had informed its members of
the receipt several weeks ago of a let
ter from Theodore Roosevelt. declining
as an opponent of certain phases of the
pending treaties, to attend the banquet
Mr.. Bloomer then laid the matter be-
fore the committee and it was decided
he said, that the sense of the body was
that the specific purpose of the dinner
was not to endorse the agreements.
With the revised understanding, Mr..
Bloomer called on Colonel Roosevelt
again and again the Colonel declined
fatty to attend but as Mr.. BlOomer
said. this would not change the atti-
tude of the promoters toward the scope
of the gathering. In other words, it
was for the purpose of promoting
world peace in general without refer
ence to any treaty in particular"
Whether President Taft and Mr.. Car
negie understood this when they &C
cepted invitations to the banquet. Mr..
Bloomer could not say. That issue ne
explained, had not been raised at the
time the invitations were sent out.
At Mr.. Carnegie's residence it was
said he had accepted an invitation to
the affair with the idea that the ar
bitration treaties were to be the para
mount topics and that he had heard
nothing of the change Of plans. Not
withstanding this, it was said MI

TALK FOOTBALL CHANGES.
Strong Teams Declared Handicapped
by Long Distance.

New York, Dec. 2S.-Discussion of
various suggested changes in football
rules was feature of the program of
today's meeting of the National Col
legiate Athletic association here. Wide
spread dissatisfa action with the code
has been expressed by many of the
delegates but there is also a consider
able number of the experts who think
that the rules are nearly right as they
stand. The chief objection found
mostly by advocates of old time foot
ball is the handicap put on the Of
Tense. Too many yards to gain with
too few downs and the necessity of re-
sorting to the tickle forward pass is a
feature according to these men that
lends uncertainty to the game and
tends to favor the weaker team at the
expense Of the stronger Many sug
gestions have been made by experts
to remedy this. some going so far to
suggest the elimination Of the for
ward pass altogether
