However, even this would not have
made the scheme possible, II 1t had
not been for the very generous and
liberal help given b. the Maryland
Agricultural College. The college,
through its able and agreeable rep
resentative, Prof. NJ. b. Anspon.
professor OF landscape gardening. was
untiring in Its zeal and desire to help.
The Maryland Agricultural College
furnished the plans IN toto. and one
third of the cost OF all plants used.
In addition. Prof. Anspon took per-
sonal charge of the ordering of the
plants and setting ont of same.
This is certainly an object lesson to

He was interrupted by the presi-
dent who called attention to the an
Eouncement which he gave to the
press yesterday, which began thus
"The president regrets that he is
obliged to announce that he deems
it his duty to decline to see applicants
Tor office in person, except when he
himself invites their interview. 1t is
his intention to deal with applicants
through the heads of the several ex~
utive departments.
Then he added that he intended TO
live up to that announcement literally
and expected his friends to take the
announcement literally. With that he
told the two senators to take the
matter up with Attorney General Nc
Reynolds ard the first lesson in pat :
ronage distribution under the new
regime was over.
While this painful version of the
patronage situation was carried away
from the white house by the Florida
senators, it is now said by some Of
President Wilson's friends that tho
senators carried off an erroneous i'm
preston: that in fact, President Will
son does not intend that his patron
age announcement shall apply to
members of the senate and of the
house of representatives. speaking in
behalf of the applicants.
Whether these friends of President
Wilson or Senators Fletcher and Bry-
an have the correct idea on patron
age remains unsettled until the presi-
dent authorizes a statement. Although
the presidents announcement does
mot mention senators or representa-
itives, it specifically declares that "it
lit his (the president's) intention Il
deal with appointments through the
heads of the several executive depart
ments.'

kniahts Enjoy Spread.

Last night at the Castle hall OF the
local lodge Knights of Pythias the
Pythian Sisters slipped one over on
the knights that was wholly a sur
prise but none the less enjoyed and
appreciated.
So absorbed were the knights in
rank work that they heard no unus-
ual sounds eminating from the ban
quet room adjoining and after work
was finished had donned overcoats
preparatory to plod homeward from
ing up an excuse to wife for late hours
when timid knock was heard at the
outer door and upon investigation by
the guard was informed that a lady
desired to say something before the
lodge. Mrs. Roberts was admitted,
and rallying from a brief attack OF
stage fright, stated that spread
awaited all who desired to partake
in the banquet Rooms. Lamont Byars
nearly tainted but tie rest remained
firm and after a gallant charge upon
the viands prepared by the la
dies a vote of thanks was rendered
them by the lodge.
Just why ladies went to this trou
BILE to feed a hungry horde at mid
night was not learned, but a wise ole
member of the fraternity stated that
there was evidently a method IN theiI
madness, however they stated last
night that such affairs were liable tC
occur most any time in the future and
as long as they do the lodge will take
no step toward investigating their
motives.

STOMACH SOUR? GOT
INDIGESTION ALSO2
"PAPE'S DlAPEPSIN' MAKES UP.
SET STOMACHS FEEL FINE IN
FIVE MINUTES.

If what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump OF
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
gas and eructate sour, undlgested,
food, or have a feeling of dizziness,
heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache -
this is Indigestion.
A full case of Papes Diapepsin
costs only fifty cents and will thor
oughly cure your out -of-order stom-
ach, and leave sufficient about the
house in case some one else in the
family may suffer from stomach trou-
BILE or Indigestion.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula plainly printed on these
fifty-cent cases, then you will under
stand why dyspeptic trouble of all
kinds go, and why they usually re-
lieve sour, ut-of-order stomachs or
indigestion in five minutes. Diapep-
sin is harmless and tastes like candy,
though each dose contains power suf-
ficient to digest and prepare for as
similation into the blood all the food
you eat; besides, it makes you go to
the table with healthy appetite; but,
what will please you most, is that you
will feel that your stomach and in
testines are clean and fresh, and you
will not need to resort to laXatives
or liver pills for biliousness or con-
stipation.
This city will have many Diapepsin
cranks, as some people will call them,
but you will be cranky about this
splendid stomach preparation, tco, If
you ever try a little for indigestion
or gastritis or any other stomach mis-
cry.
Get some now, this minutes, and
forever rid yourself of stomach trou-
Bile and Indigestion.

iarrested, and one OF them told the
entire story.
Three negroes and two negresses
had entered into a conspiracy to rob
and murder the ranchman, according
to the negro's story, as he was known
to carry money on his person in his
travels about the country. One wom-
an was to entice him into the woods,
where the others were to be ready
TO carry out the plan. But he hap
pened to have less than $25 with him
at the time of the murder, and when
the woman who had induced him ~
take her into the woods, began to
demand all the money as her share,
she was quickly fixed so that she
would not give the gang any trouble,
it is charged. Both bodies were then
put in the buggy and the team was
driven into the river, with the above
results.
Deputy Smith was working on the
case and believed that Gains was
in the vicinity of Guthrie, and so no.
titled Sheriff John Mahoney, and his
force soon located their man work
ing on farm four miles north of
the city. Gains is now on his way to
face the murder charge in the courts
Of Love county. Gains was not un'
der any suspicion during the few
months that he was at work on the
Logan county farm.
