ANOTHER TRAGEDY MARKS TEX,

Murderer Gives Himself Up
to the Police.

Amarillo, Texas, Sept. 16. - John
Beall Sneed, slayer of Captain A. S.
Boyce and principal in the Boyce.
Sneed fued, which has startled the
people of two nations with it's tragic
Incidents, shot and instantly killed AL
bert Boyce, who eloped with Sneed's
wife last January. The killing took
place in front of the Methodist church
here
A beard of several weeks growth
furnished complete disguise and
those who saw the shooting thought
Sneed was hunter.
The shooting occurred on the prin.
cipal street of the city within two
blocks of the business district.
Heavy loads Of buckshot took effect
In Boyce's right side and death must
have been practically instantaneous
Newspaper men We're not permitted to
see Sneed and neither he nor his at.
torneys had any statement to make.
The killing Of Boyce is the last
tragic incident in a hist of tragedies
which began last January, when Mrs
Lena Sneed ran away from sana
torium in Fort Worth, where she had
been placed by her husband for nerv-
ous and mental trouble.
Mrs. Sneed, in company with AL
Boyce, left Fort Worth and there was
a sensational chase after the couple by
Beall Sneed across the United States
into Canada, where they were located
IN Winnipeg by Minneapolis detectives
Sneed prevailed upon his wife to re-
turn to Texas. She came and on &C
count of the letters which passed be-
tween Captain Boyce and his son and
the assistance alleged to have been
given young Boyce by his father, Beall
Sneed shot Captain Boyce to death in
the lobby of the Metropolitan hotel in
Fort Worth. The shooting followed a
conference with Mrs. Lena Sneed and
her husband. There We're numerous
witnesses to the shooting. This was
the first tragedy in the series.

Peevish Children
Suffer With Worms

Don't be angry with your child be-
cause he or she is continually irritable.
In ninety-nine out of one hundred
cases you will find that the trouble
is worms.
Among the common symptoms of the
presence Of round worms are nervous
ness,-which often leads to epilepti-
form attacks;-dizziness, vertigo, cap
ricious appetite, restless sleep, itching
of the eyes and nose, nausea and often
hysteria. Round worms are several
inches N length and infest the
stomach. Occasionally several hun
bred are found in single person.
Thread worms are smaller, often not
longer than quarter Of an inch.
The symptoms denoting their presence
are about the same, but in this case
the child has no appetite.
Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge is unsur-
passed in removing worms. Not only
will it destroy them, but it's tonic
effects will restore the stomach to
healthy activity. As Jayne's Tonic
Vermifuge seldom purges, the inai-
cations of it's beneficial effects, will
be the improved conditions of the
person uSiEg it.
Millions of parents have praised
this medicine for more than eighty
years. Insist upon Jayne's Tonic Vcr-
mifuge, and accept no other. Sold

NOMINATION OF PATTERSON.

East Chicago and Indiana Harbor
have been rolling up big republican
majorities for the past ten years
They have done this in spite of the
fact that they have received but little
recognition from the party.
H. E. Jones selection for the office
of recorder, the election of E. w
Mickey and b. w. Van Horne as state
representatives is about all these cities
have had at the hands of the republic
an party in the last few years.
This proved to be strong argument
in favor of the nomination of J. A.
Patterson for the Office of prosecutor
at the judicial convention last Satur-
day.
The republicans could not deny that
East Chicago and Indiana Harbor
were entitled to representation 1t is,
of course, to be regretted that 1t was
| necessary to turn down two mighty
good men in William F. Hodges OF
Gary and Ralph w Ross of Hammond.
| Both Hodges and Ross earned the
right to consideration by efficient serv-
ice as deputy prosecutors. They are
both men of unquestion integrity and
manifest ability and are material
which the party will use sooner OF
later.
Patterson may be expected to be an
efficient prosecutor. If he keeps his

NOTHING NEW.

A lot of our young bucks pride them
selves in their knowledge of slang and
wonder whether the old folks under
stand their vernacular. Our travels
through some books show us that one
very popular stock phrase, believe
me- or believe muh'' as the turkey
troting youth says it, was ancient
when the guidons OF Rome fiuttered
over the world Old Cicero. in his book
II, If we remember the number right
ly, starts out in one chapter with "be-
lieve me, citizens" "Kickero," as you
may often have pronounced it when
you were juggling your Latin gram
mar. no doubt picked it up around the
Roman dance-halls when he was
young.
Then we have before us the phrase
quick as Jack Robinson" in one oil
Dickens earlier works. The other day
we looked over one of Charles Cot
toms English translation run off the
press a couple of hundred years age
and find that fuzzy" was an old one
and that didn't originate with George
McGinnity of Gary, the reputed in
|ventor of the word.

stance and have always done so will
ingly. and further than this in the face
Of existing conditions, what more could
any one within reason ask? If the ty-
phoid rate in Whiting appears to be
greater than in surrounding cities. one
reason for 1t can be ascribed to the pos
sible fact that every suspected case is
reported typhoid, while in other cities
the reporting of cases may in many in
stances be withheld. If this is the case,
one may readily see why our typhoid
rate would appear much higher in pro-
portion than in other localities Whit
ing Is the only city in the Calumet re-
gion that has installed the hyper-chlo-
rite of lime treatment of the drinking
water. and for this fact alone. If for no
other the proper authorities should
have the full merit of credit While
our sewer outlets are too near the wa
ter intake, 1T is equally true that our
corporate limits are such that other
municipalities would object to the
city's wastes being emptied into terri
tory under their control. The extern
sion of our intake further into the lake
sufficiently far to eliminate the chances
of contamination by the colon bacilli
, would be prohibftive at the present
time and under present conditions. Ev-
cry effort Is being made to safeguard
the water supply. and when the con-
troll Is complete. as we now believe 1t
to be. the danger of typhoid In Whit
. ing will be reduced to a minimum
There has been but one case of typhoid
reported in the last twenty-three days
and that is sufficient evidence that the
epidemic Is now Well under control
Any one sufficiently interested in the
health and sanitary conditions of this
city may have explained to them at any
, time the work that is being carried on
and the fact should always stand far
beyond presumption

demand for food products it is not re-
per cent increase in prices. Further
more. most of these immigrants locate
in the cities making the problem of
the marketing and distribution of food
products all the more difficult.
Take these ten millions of foreign
ers and distribute them through the
small towns and the country districts
and it would not affect the problem
of the high cost of food nearly SO
much as though these same millions
were crowded into the cities where
the problem of feeding the people is
already difficult one.
There are just two solutions to this
problem from an economic point of
view. One is to restrict emigration
until the productivity of the country
has caught up with its increase in
population and the other is to en-
courage intensive farming as we'll as
expansive farming.
President Taft made an effort to
relieve the situation by negotiating
a reciprocity agreement with Canada
by which the manufactured products
of the United States could be ex.
changed for the enormous quantities
of foodstuffs that are raised there.
The president attempted a political
solution of the problem, but the PEG
pie of Canada did not take kindly to
the idea for the reason that it is now
| fostering its own industrial develop
ment and Champ Clark's reference to
the possibility of annexation of Can
ada by the United States did not heir
the situation
Should the United States remove
the duty on foodstuffs in Canada and
waive any reciprocal advantages II
might have had there is still some
question as to the effect for prices in
Canada are as high as they are in the
| United States.
