ROGERS STILL At LARGE

On Saturday the Kansas City police
thought that Robert Rodgers, the
former Chanute boy who murdered
Hazel Hardesty in that city on Sep
tember 5, 1911, had been caught at
Guymon, Okla. Detective Arthur
Dorsett accompanied by J, A. Will
Jams, brother-in-law of Miss Hardesty
and in whose house she was killed,
went to Oklahoma to identify the
prisoner whom Sheriff McCanless or
Dalhart, Texas believed to be the
missing Rogers. The two Kansas
City men decided however that the
suspect was not Rogers though he
resembled a photograph of the MUIR
derer sufficient 10 deceive the Texas
sheriff.

Apollo Music Club
Gets Recognition
Its Secretary Has Received
appointment as State Presi-
dent for Federation

Mrs. Julius Eugene Kinney of Den
yer, national president of the Ma
tional Federation of Musical Clubs
which include 40, 900 musicians of
the country has just notified Mrs.
Hattie L. Emerson of her appoint
ment as state president for the music
clubs of Kansas. The appointment
is to fill out the unexpired two year
term of Mrs. Frederick Grove of
Lawrence who has resigned the
office because she is moving to
California. Mrs. Grove was ap-
pointed at the last biennial meeting
of the National Federation which
was held IN March 1911 at Phila-
delphia. Mrs. Emerson attended
that meeting as president of the
Apollo music club of Chanute of
which she is now the secretary.
AS state president Mrs. Emerson
will have charge of all the music
clubs of the state. At present only
eight of these clubs are federated but
it will be part of Mrs. Emerson's
work to visit them and carry on exten-
sion work. Cherryvale, Coffeyville,
Pittsburg, Lawrence and Topeka are
among the other Kansas towns
which now have federated music
clubs.
The appointment comes as fur
ther honor to the Apollo club as well
as to Mrs. Emerson from the Ma
tional Federation. Though the club
has been organized six years it has
been federated only two years. In
connected with the five days pro-
gram of National meeting last year
the local club was invited to send a
representative to Philadelphia. This
was gratifying recognition of the
musical standing of Chanute as only
thirty musicians appeared on the
Philadelphia program. Miss Agnes
Lapham was selected by the Apollo
Club as its representative for the oc-
casion.

NATION WINS FEE SUIT

Jas. NJ. Nation OF Erie, eX-state au
ditor, has received supreme court
decision ruling that he was entitled
to the fees amounting to little over
$1,000 which he collected while 10
office for registering bonds and paid
into the state treasury not knowing
that the fees belonged to him, The 1911
legislature appropriated the money to
pay the fees but Gov. Stubhs vetoed
the appropriation on the ground that
the supreme court must first decide
whether or not Nation was entitled
to the money. The court now favors
Nation but the legislature must make
a new appropriation to reimburse
him.

SHORT LIFE ENDED

Mrs. Elsie Reynolds of Las Vegas,
New Mexico, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. D. d. johnson of this city,
passed away early Sunday morning Of
tuberculosis,
She was married about years ago
to Mr.. Reynolds of Dunlap, Iowa and
went there to live. About year at-
ter marriage she contracted consump-
tion and her husband took her to
New Mexico where they have since
lived in the vain hope that that eli
mate might enable her to throw off
the dread disease. Vain hope.
Elsie was young married woman
just in the springtime of life. We
knew her but a few years ago as a
bright sprightly young student in the
state normal school. Now her short
life is but a sweet memory to her rela-
tives and friends.

ANOTHER FIRE DESTROYS PROPERTY

A fire at No. 100 S. Evergreen
which was discovered at 3 O'Clock
Sunday morning, in small de-
tached room where George and
John Lawrence had it stored full of
household goods, consisting of fur
niture, bedding, stoves and other
household necessities caused con.
siderable damage to both building
and contents. The fire department
saved the building though in dam
aged condition. The fire seemed
to originate on the inside among
the clothing and bedding. The
building had not been opened for
months.

GASOLINE FROM NATURAL GAS

The production OF gasoline from
natural gas has made rapid strides,
aud the process is evidently success
full when applied to most natural gas
from oil wells. An interesting de-
velopment has been the extraction Of
oils Of low boiling point from wells
by attaching a vacuum pump to the
well casing and causing the oil to dis
till out with the gas. 1t is condensed
again at the atmospheric pressure.
The gasoline thus obtained is, Of
course, heavier and more valuable for
general use than the lighter products.

TO GET BIDS FOR IRON FENCE

The regular monthly business
meeting of the Chanute Ladies
Cemetery Association was held last
Monday afternoon. A committee
was appointed to secure bids for the
construction of an iron fence at the
cemetery similar in design and gen.
eral character to the gate which has
been put up.
The ladies have arranged to al.
low the annual dues of the associa-
ton to be paid at the Hoshaw
Drug store as we'll as at the Terril
Pharmacy. Printed notification of
the fact that the dues should be paid
have been mailed and the ladies
plan to visit the delinquents in per-

TONY MULLEN'S DAIRY CROWNS

Time Too Short
For Discussions
Several Topics on Chanute
Farmers Institute were not
Reached Saturday.

Though the meeting was not
largely attended the interest in the
discussions of the February meeting
of the Chanute Farmers Institute
which was held at the Library Sat.
urday afternoon was SO great that
number of the topics on the program
we're not reached. The general
theme of food production was also
being considered at many other
farmers institutes over the state.
The next meeting will be held
March 9 according to the plans of
the State Agricultural college which
has an oversight for the institutes
even when as was the case Saturday
no representative from the school
attends the meeting.
D. L. Houston, president of the
institute, presided. The plan of
cooperative butcherlng of calves,
sheep and hogs by the farmers
throughout the year by dividing the
meat among the members of a club
received much attention. By the
ARRANGEMENT each home secures a
continual supply of fresh meat in
stead of depending on bacon and
ham as occurs when the farmer
ships his hogs to Kansas City. E.
L. Tennis led the discussion as he
is member of successful club of a
dozen farmers living west of town
who follow the plan. The consid-
Grafton of the growing of the vege-
table food supply with special refer
ence to potatoes and tomatoes also
received much attention. Among
the men who had share in the
animated discussions were w. H.
Neyhart, E. L. Youut, S. L. Young
and R. N. Allen.
NJ. Houston contemplaies the
plan of holding sessions of the insti-
tute in school houses nesr town of
evenings with the idea of securing
the attendance of more men. He
is satisfied that if once the farmers
and their families find what inter
esting discussions are held a larger
number of people will attend the
in town.
