KNADLER DENIES
KILLING HIS FATHER
Takes 1t Very Cody When Warrant
is Read in Jail Charging Him
With Murder

The report was current today that
John ID Knadler had confessed to the
him with the murder of his father at
late of near Tablefs Station, but that
report is erroneous.
When Constable Wolf went to the
jail about II o'clock this morning and
read the warrant to Knadler, charging
him with tee murder or his father at
his home in the early hours OF last
Monday night, he simply remarked:
We'll. | didn't kill him. anyhow"
More than that he refused to say.
Deputy Sheriff Baker Sheets who
was present when the warrant for the
arrest OF Knadler was read TO him,
says the man does not seem cast
down a bit. Notwithstanding a muir
der charge is hanging over his head,
according to the finding of the coron-
er's jury
II Is not likely now that Knadler
win get a preliminary hearing before
Justice FeIker before Monday. The
funeral of the dead man will be held
tomorrow afternoon.

The Governorship
The most authentic reports obtain.
able late today say that DR. H. ID Hat
field and the entire Republican and
Progressives tickets have been elect
ed, although the majority canot be
definitely learned. The latest returns
received show that 1t will probably eX-

ticket in all congressional districts,
and but for his strength the Demo
Gratis would have won.
The Congressman
The Democrats have elected their
Congressman in the First and Second
districts, and the Republicans have
won in the Third, Fourth and Fifth
by small maiorities. Congressman
Davis in the First district, has ma
jority of $50. Two years ago he car
ried the district by over 1000.
AS to the Congressman-at-Large
there is much doubt. The Republicans
refuse to concede the election of Hin

his majority will be far below that of
DR.. Hatfeld's. From what returns

and a general breaking Of inter-
national agreements is daily
growing nearer as a result Of the
Balkan war.
The relations of the two
groups known as the Triple En-
tente and the Triple Alliance,
are becoming more and more
strained. 1t is possible that
Germany who favors the Turks
may become isolated from either
alliance as the outcome Of the
disagreement.
France is leading the negotia-
tons looking toward peace, but
her proposals are unsatisfactory
to the allies who want division
of the territory they have won.
Russia is disposed to back them
up, but in this event Russia,
which belongs to the Triple En-
tente, including Great Britain
and France, may break.
Of the countries forming the
Triple Alliance, Austria, Germa-
ny and Italy, Austria is the most
concerned, because that govern
ment has its eyes on territory
now held by Turkey.

Woodrow Wilson is elected Presi-

The Second District
As to the Second district it is diff

Republicans are claiming the election
of Conley, but refuse 20 give any fig

the reelection of Mr.. Brown, and
place his majority at 500. Mr.. Brown

that Mr.. Brown has won by not less
than 500

Opened His EYES.

Sweet Master Chaucer Epicus and
AmaTyllis fair, went strolling by the
Inill-stream-a most idyllic pair. "My
loveliest of loves!" broke forth the
swain's excited muse. Permit me to
extol the charms which thus my soul
enthuse. Your little ears, so shelly
pink, for lovers praise were made;
no fairy feet than thine more neat,
e'er tripped DER moon-lit glade; your
eyes are like twin stars of night;
like fine-spun Colds your hair; your
lips put Cupid's bow to scorn; your
teeth are past compare" But here a
playful gust of wind came gayly
through the trees, and whisked his
darling's hat and hair away upon it's
breeze! Alas! why did the maiden
then permit herself to shout, and
cause her lover added pain to see her
teeth fall out?

DOCTOR FEELS HIS HANDICAP
Recognizes Distinct Limitations When
Called On to Cope With Modern
Scientific" Babe.

Because the doctor did not put on
his seven-league boots and start the
minute he heard there was sick
child in the neighborhood, the woman
who had summoned him accused him
Of inhumanity. But the doctor pro-
tested that he was not inhuman.
81 am not anxious to respond" he
said, because the parents will not
do anything l tell them to and will
get a doctor more to their liking
later in the day. How do l know?
You as good as told me so yourself
You said the youngster was scien-
tifcally reared baby; never knew a
kiss or a cuddle or a germ or a
tSmmyache until the present attack.
Scientific babies are the despair of
old-fashioned practitioners. The kinds
of babies he is used to are those that
depend mostly upon mothering to
make them well. If an old-fashioned
baby bumps his head or stubs his
toe or mashes his thumb, just let
mother kiss the bruise and 1t will
stop hurting. Having been brought
up on such nonsensical notions and
believing in them still to a certain
extent, there is no denying that in
treating the new-style baby the old
doctor is not a great success"

INAUGURATION OF IRON AGE
Authorities Differ as to tho Time and
Place Of lite First introduction
to the World.

Some authorities incline to the
view that the iron age was inaugur-
ated In Asia or in Africa. The inves.
legations of recent years have pointed
to the conclusion that It was not
worked In Egypt until the ninth cen
tury before Christ, or in Libya until
450 b. C.; tAat the Semitic adopted its
use still later, and that 1t has been
1sown in Uganda only within the
last five or six centuries. There are
Chinese records of date about four
centuries before Christ that mention
iron. Bronze weapons were employed
In China until about 700 A. D.
1t is thought that the metallurgy of
iron must have originated in Central
Europe, especially in Noricum, which
approximately represented modern
Austria and Bavaria. Only at Hall
stett and in Bosnia and Pennsylvania,
from which countries the Achaians
and Dorians are supposed to have mi
grated to Hellas, are found evidences
of a gradual introduction of iron, at
first as an ornament applied to the
bronze which it ultimately replaced.
Everywhere else iron was introduced
| in no gradual fashion, a fact that
| implies foreign origin.
Meteoric iron was known in Egypt
in remote antiquity, but no doubt it
was worked as f1ints are worked, by
cutting or chipping, and was not
smelted In other words, it was the
Fmetallurgy, not the knowledge of iron,
that originated in Central Europe.
