Underwriters VIII Hear What DIR.
Gordon Has to Say.

The members of the Kansas Association
of Life Underwriters were tempted to at
tend church in a body when they learned
that as an inducement the Rev Robert
Gordon would preach on the subject of
Life Insurance" The temptation was so
strong that at the meeting of the associa-
ton held in the Ad club room in the
Commerce building Monday night it was
unanimously decided to go to church in
the near future and persuade their wives
to do likewise.
A $50 o'clock banquet was held by the
organization which was presided over by
Dolley, state bank commissioner, was the
guest and speaker of the occasion. Marco
Morrow spoke briefly on advertising, and

relative to the next national convention

would attend the national convention: 8.

Mr.. Dolley expressed himself being
of the opinion that associations of insur-

the big insurance companies are using
their monies for any purpose rather than

Big TASK IS EASY.
To Let Ship Through Canal IS Motors
Must Be Used.

Washington, Feb. 20.-To pass a
big ship through each lcckog of the
Panama canal, no less than SO electric
motors wilP have to be set in motion
twice and this number may be in
creased to 143, dependent upon the
previous condition of the gates, valves
aud other devices that made up the
complex Locking system of the great
waterway. In passing a ship through
the locks, it will be necessary to open
and close mitre gates weighing from
three hundred to six hundred tons:
fill and empty lock chambers contain
ing from three and a half to five mill
lion cubic feet of water and lower
fender chains weighing 24.O9S pounds
each and to tow the vessels through
the locks. Yet so admirably has this
tremendous task been systematized by
the designing engineers that, accord
ing &c the Canal Record, all of these
operations, except that of towing, will
be controlled by a single man at
WitchbOard.

But how long have you been home.

when are you going back to your hus-

Dea Patton was David Bragg's star
witness in the recent murder case. It |
was because of the love of the Valen-
cha girl that Bragg and Wilkerson
quarreled. This emit nd jealousy
resulted in the killing of Wilkerson at
a dance in Silver Lake March II, last
year
At the trial Dea Patton furnished the
missing link in the Bragg defense when
she related threats made against
Bragg's life. which the young girl re-
peated to the defendant Bragg was
acquitted because of his own straight
forward story and that of the girl he,
loved Last fall Bragg married +ba

Bragg to her old home and with her
trunk led to persistent reports from
the Valencia neighborhood that the
heroine in the murder case had tired of

under the name of his brother. In
February, 1864, Samuel Cooper died of
typhoid fever and the body was taken
to the old Cooper homestead near Gar

There WAS where trouble started. the
army records showed that William,
Cooper had died. So far as the pension
