FACTS FOR SPORT LOVERS

1t is curious fac that men who are
satisfied with sensatlonaI md inaccur-
ate news in other departments will in
stantly resent the falsifying of sport
ing news. They won't stand for it. .
They want the truth, without fear,
favor or bias. Those interested in the
sporting events of the world generally
agree that the Chicago Record Herald
is model in this regard. Whether it
be baseball, football, boxing, racing,
automobiling, yacting, golf or any
other event in the world of athletics or
sports, you can always find a good,
breezy, accurate report of it in the
Record Herald.
This wide-awake newspaper has a
large staff of expert reporters of sports
who devote all their time and skill to
this department alone. They have
every facility that modern enterprise
can devise for the quick and complete
reporting of Chicago sporting events,
while at the same time the athletic
news of the whole country is received
by telegraph up 10 the last moment Of
going to press. From one to two whole
pages of the Record Herald are devoted
to sports every week day, while on Sun
day the four full pages of the ''green
sheet" offer a feast for ''fans" and
other lovers of sport.
The Record Herald has earted it's rep
utation all right. 1t gets all the sport
ing newsstand gets it straight.

made a full confession and expressed
pleasure that she had stopped SANDER
Gus remarks.
In her confession, as reported by
the police, Mrs Lang said:
Yes, shot Mrs Couple. shot her
down as her two little children stood
beside her, holding to her skirts. I
killed her because she said no man
ought to marry me and that my hus-
band would repent.
"She said I was ugly. She said I
was old. I killed her for that. and
am not bit sorry for it. She was
jealous of me and would have made
my life unhappy"

of Mrs. Lang with a woman friend,
also a wedding guest, who had repeated
the reported remarks of Mrs. Couple.
Mrs. Lang went to the home of her

Her HOME is SAVED.
A Woman Wins a Suit Against the
Steel Trust.

Hibbing, Mimi, Dec. 4.-The little
home of Mrs. Elizabeth Hukart Liend
will not tumble into the great open pit
of the Oliver Iron mining company
for Mrs. Liend has won a notable legal
victory over the big subsidiary of the
United States steel corporation. Judge
Martin Hughes late yesterday granted
the woman a permanent Injunction
against the Oliver company and order
ed the company to, pay the costs of
the suit Mrs. LEND owned a little
home near the great Sellers open pit
of the oliver Co. AS the mining and
stripping operations advanced peril
came. If the work was not halted, the
dwelling would topple into the ex-
cavation. Mrs. Liend had not much
money, but she had plenty of cour
age and she took her troubles into
court. The case was long fought and
many expedients were adopted by the
corporation to win the battle against
the woman. Now, however, the dis
trict court has ordered the company
to cease cutting into or obstructing
Mrs. Lends property, The applica-
ton for a temporary injunction was
made last February and one of its
direct results was the closing down of
the Sellers open pit mine which has
never since been reOpened.

PAWNEE COUNTY
COburn's Figures Show She
Leads the State.
Rain Comes During Growing
Months, Boosting Yield.

Larned, Kan, Dec. 4.-According to
F. D. Coburn, state secretary of agri-
culture, Pawnee county is the banner
producing county of the state. Several
times during his discussions at the
State Farmers Congress at Hutchinson
last week the veteran statistician point
ed to Pawnee as q criterion for the
other Kansas districts. From 382, 1872
acres she has produced during the past
year $4,340. 0S0.19. Only two other Kan
sas counties are in the four million
class and they show greater acreages
and smaller yields. Many counties have
produced but one-tenth this value. Dur
ing the past ten years the population
has doubled, both in Larned the coun-
ty seat, and the rural districts
The average rainfall for 40 years
1868 to 190S-has been 2295 inches per
year, of which 20 inches have fallen
during the seven growing months. That
rain has produced over 5,000,0 bushels
of wheat alone, and Pawnee is only
half as large as some of the Kansas
counties. All these figures, quoted by
the secretary, are from official com
pilations.

PrOvident Association Already
Planning to Bring Cheer.
1t Will Cooperate With All
Who Help the Poor.
TO WORK WITH A SYSTEM
So as Not to Duplicate in One
Case or Neglect in Another.
May Join National Charitable
Association Movement.

Christmas joy will be brought to
scores of homes in Topeka as a re-
suit of the efforts of the Provident as
ISOLATION Much Of the work of Great
ing Christmas cheer will be done in
directly, but the association, neverthe-
less, will have a hand in it. The organi-
zation is asking the cooperation of the
citizens of Topeka.
Already the management of the as
ISOLATION is making plans for the an
nual festive season In fact, for sew
eral weeks the secretary, Miss Mary r.
Vose, and other workers, have been
canvassing the city with the object of
making out a list of all families that
are deserving of assistance on Christ
mas day. The task has been an
arduous one, but productive of results.
The Provident association prefers to
create Christmas joy indirectly. That
is, a list of names Of deserving poor is
available to individuals or organiZa-
lions that wish to do some charitable
work on their own responsibility.
This week, for example, the Sunday
school of the First Methodist Episcopal
church procured the names and ad-
dresses of one hundred children who
would appreciate gifts of clothing and
toys. individuals, also, have already
asked for the names of families to be
provided with baskets of good things to
eat. The management of the associa-
ton prefers doing work in this way.
The theory is that the individuals who
give, derive more pleasure from so
doing than were they simply to turn
in the baskets or other gifts to the
association for distribution.
According to Miss Vose, there is
grave danger of duplication in Christ
mas giving. In past years some families
have received four or five baskets,
while others have been absolutely
neglected. It is hoped this year to reach
everyone. To accomplish this, all per-
sons who intend to give to the poor at
Christmas time are asked to notify the
association, giving the names and ad-
dresses of the persons who will be the
recipients of presents.
VIII Cooperate With All Who Give.
The association will cooperate with
the Redden mission and the Good Eel
lows club this season, and with the
Salvation Army, so far as is possible.
Elaborate preparations are being
made for entertainment at the ProVi-
dent building. There will be a Christ
mas tree in the nursery for the little
tots. 1t will be hung with all manner
of Fascinating toys and candies for
the youngsters. There will be another
tree for the girls, and some special
event win be arranged for the mem |
bers of the Topeka Boys club.

KEEPS THE FREE LUNCH
Los Angeles Also Votes Down the New
City Charter.

Los Angeles, Dec. 4.-Citizens of Los
Angeles awoke today to find with Ger
tainty that they had no new city char
ter but that the saloon free lunch was
left to them. Both propositions were
voted upon yesterday.
This was the first defeat suffered by
the good government organization since
it assumed control of the city's affairs
with the recall of Mayor Harper four
years ago. The charter proposition
was beaten about two to one. The
anti-free lunch ordinance lost in about
the same proportion
The harbor zone of the city rejected
prohibition by a scant majority.
