AN INNOCENT KITTEN.
Was Cause of Consternation-GirIs
Think 1t a Burglar.

Wichita, Kan, Dec. 1S.-A fuzzy,
not at all vicious minded kitten was
the target at which two Elizabeth
avenue young women directed their
revolver shots one night last week.
They shut their eyes and pulled the
triggers. The miniature edition of a
cat almost died from a broken heart
certainly not the bullets-when it
realized that the young women were
shooting at it.
The fusillade was the welcome the
kitten received when it climbed the
screen over the window of the young
women'S boudoir. They of course
thought that it was a horrid man and
shot to eXterminate the wretch One
of the young women said that the
kitten looked just like a man.
Their bombardment of the puss
awakened the neighborhood and soon
pajamed men were to the rescue. One
silk clad person collided with a coal
house that was lettering carelessly in
the alley and he let out a yell. 1t
was natural to suppose that the yell
came from the man who had been
shot by the young women. The crowd
rushed for him, to lynch him if need
be.
While the men in pajamas tramped
the premises for the fiend a late ar
rival did some investiga ting for him
self. He found the kitten on a fence
near the window, shaking with fear.
Its feelings were ruff1ed. He handed
the fuzzy ball to the girl with this
remark, Here is your burglar" and
slipped away. The young women still
contend that they shot at a man.

LEND TO FARMERS
Would Use School Fund to Aid
Ambitious Young Men.
H. Miller Says Kansas Should
Follow Oregon.

Manhattan, Kan. Dec. 1S.-Kansas
has a school fund of million dollars
that should be lent to farmers at a low
rate of intereSt-five per cent or less
This fund, now invested in school dis
trict and municipal bonds, brings an IN
terest income of less than six per cent.
Every dollar of this money in the
judgment of ]. H. Miller, dean of the
extension division of the Kansas Agrl-
cultural college, should be lent on long
terms-eight to twelve years-to ambi-
tious farmers who wish to buy farms of
their own. This million might not be
enough money to supply the demand
in Kansas but it would help wonder
fully in solving tire farm credit problem
1.-The present short-time loan system,
with the small amount lent on a farm.
prevents thousands of young men from
buying FARMS" said Mr.. Miller. Three
and five-year loans can never be safe
for the farmer who wishes to buy
farm with the profits of his FARMS pro-
duction. The chances are too great
against success There may be lean
years, sickness of family, livestock, and
low price for produce. With state
money there would be no occasion for
short loans. A farmer then might have
of the loan and interest with the privi-
lege of making two or more payments
at any regular payment time. He
should also have the privilege of carry
ing one payment over to the next pay
ment time when the reasons for so do
ing seem good to the state land COM
missioner.
Make 1t Easy to Buy.
IT want to max. s easy for the ener-
getic renter to buy a farm and pay for
it; for the young man just leaving
home to start a home of his own to
buy a small farm and make the farm
pay for itself. In ten years our army
of tenant farmers in Kansas has in
creased six thousand There was little
need of farm credit when land was free
or to be had at small cost. Today there
is no unsettled frontier. There is no
more West
Il would not recommend that any of
this money be lent for any other pur-
pose than for paying for land, and
would not lend d dollar to a man who
already owns $50 acres. Every appli-
cant should produce what Germany and
Denmark value so highly, good per-
sonaI character credit. Oregon has
been lending its school fund in this
way for -orty years. In Denmark
eighty-nine of every one hundred farm
ers own their farms. That is what 1
want for Kansas.

DIVORCES A PREACHER.
Letters From Young Woman Dropped
Out of His Pocket.

Turner, Kan, Dec. 1S.-Mrs. Bertha
A. Stokley was given a divorce in the
circuit court from Cecil 1. StokIey, a
divinity student of Kansas City, who
has been living and preaching in Tur-

was represented by an attorney.
Two letters which Mrs. Stokley said
dropped from the pockets of her hus-
bands coat shortly prior to the sepa-
ration a week ago Were read by Judge
James H. Slower. The letters told of
meeting a young woman. In addi-
ton Mrs. Stokley said her husband ex-
pected her to get up in the morning
and light the fires which she did for
few days and then rebelled. Some
days, she testified, he would not speak
to her.

Fowler. Kan, Dec 1S.-The grass
hoppers which visited Kansas this fall
were regarded as anything but a plague
by the turkey growers of southern
Ford county AS a result of the hop
per visitation the farmers turned their
young turkeys on the wheat fields after
the harvest and the pasturage of grass
hoppers has resulted in the largest
turkey crop in this section. One Fowler
firm paid out 1000 last week for
turkeys, many of the loads coming long
distances. Some of the birds were
worth SO each, and the dealers say are
in the best. condition they ever saw.
