JEFF WOODS SUES.

Clears Him of Charges Last
Summer.

A damage suit which may
prove of wide interest has been
filed in the Circuit Court of Gala
way county by Jefferson Woods,
stock trader of near Hatton.
CAN'T and Rodgers of Mexico are
his attorneys.
1t is a suit for $4,000 damages,
against the st. Louis Republic,
for an article which appeared in
that publication Aug Z, and
dated Fulton, charging Woods
with throwing poisoned chewing
gum into the yards of Edward
McPheetcrs and Homer Hite with
the alleged intention of poison
ing children.
The charges, as we recall,
against Woods were tried last
summer in the Audrain Circuit
Court and Woods was cleared.
The article in the Republic
further says that Woods and Lee
A. Boyd and wife were arrested
for attempting TO poison the Nc
Pheeters and Hite children.
Woods charges the article with
meaning the reader should un-
derstand that he (Woods) had
feloniously attempted the life of
these children" Woods recites
in his petition that Kate Nc
Pheeters never said the Rev. w.
f. Forman saw him (Woods)
place poisoned chewing gum in
the yards, as the story is alleged
to state, and charges the article
with being false and libelous con-
corning him.
He asks for $4,000 actual and
$25,00 punitive damages.

Antiquity of rheumatism.

It may not greatly console modern
people, but a paper read at the Paris
Academy of Science last week estab-
lished the fact that rheumatism "was
as common among our ancestors of
the polished stone age as 1t Is at the
present time" Researches made by
DR.. Marcel Badouin Of neolithic bu-
rial place at Vendrest left no doubt
that thirty backbones among one hun.
dred skeletons showed the effects Of
this disease. The skeletons Of the
women showed that the left side was
the more often affected, while tho
men seem to show the effects on the
right side. DR.. Badouin's paper con.
cluded that the affection which now
adays is called osteoarthritis diffor.
mans is the oldest known disease. It
has been found In the cave Of bear
at Ariege, the oldest quaternary stra.
tuyu, and also among the most ancient
Egyptians and prehistoric Nubians.

Every Indian Had an Umbrella.

One of the incidents of the early
days in Great Bend that caused q
great deal OF merriment among the
white residents was the time the In
dians bought all the parasols and um-
brellas that were for sale in the town.
This happened along in the '7Os and
was on a rainy day. The 1njuns were
on their way south and came through
the town Of Great Bend. They saw
a number of men and women on the
streets with umbrellas and, being
plentifully supplied with money and
a desire to own one of the handy con-
trivances, they got busy. The funny
part Of 1t was that they made no dis
tnction between toy parasols, silk
ones and the serviceable linen ones.
1t was not long entil the entire visi-
BILE supply Of all the stores had been
purchased. Then the fun began.
Some Of the toy parasols were made
Of cloth that was highly colored and
as soon as the water hit them the
coloring matter began to mix with
the water and drip down upon the In
dams clothes. They minded this not
In the least and were seen going
southwark whooping and seemingly
in the very best Of spirits.-Great

what two more years of Governor
