Dear Madam: From what I've

there are very few marriages for

ings, and In the end to be IA cute
little widow"
Home" ought not be called

even that). Married women of to-
day have better times than the

TORRlD KANSAS.
Great Suffering Experimentation
Is Perishing from Thirst.

The heat experienced in Kansas,
Missouri and Oklahoma exceeds all
past records. The eleventh day Of
this dry, sweltering heat was re-
lieved on Thursday by slight fall
of rain. The shower, as reported,
was confined to territory less than
mile square. People shouted and
cheered as the drops began to fall,
and many of them stood in the
doWnpour, as it was the first rain
there since July %.
For sustained heat the present hot
spell has broken all Kansas records,
and this summer has been the dry
est in the history of the State. Since
the drouth began early in May,
when the thermometer rose to 100
degrees, hot waves have followed
with such brief cool periods inter-
Nening that the exceptional heat has
been almost continuous. Late crops
practically have been destroyed in
parts of the State. Some farmers are
cutting their corn in the hope Of
utilizing it for fodder, but in some
instances the blades are so dry that
they will not even make good fod-
der. In certain sections hay is being
baled Immediately after it is cut,
as it is so dry the usual curing pro
cess is unnecessary. "a
From the rainfall ther followed a
temporary relief, but the tempera-
ture had risen and reached an aver
age maximum above 400 degrees. In
many places the mercury climbed to
108 degrees.
There have been many victims Of
this excessive heat, Stock is starv-
ing and perishing from thirst, and
hens have quit laying eggs.

Peterlllan for COn0resS

Hon. W. L. Peterman has an
nouneed himself for Congress. He
represented the Parish Of ISL. Mary
in the State. Senate He aspires to
fill the seat now being occupied by
the congressman Of the Third Dis
5trict. This. announcement may be
criticised as being premature. It is
the early bird which secures the
worm, If the worm is about unsus-
plcious5 and off his guard.
In this, the Third District, the
Sugar Teats are strongly Republi-
5canized where they are not already
pronounced in their political pro-
5eHvitles.
Tt may not be surprising if a Re
publican or sugarA Aprotectionlst
should be eleted to Congress from
this district. The Republican, or
Sugar Teaf, candidate for this dis
trict IS Eugene Pharr, IA man Of
activity and wealth.

Senator PenPOSe.

One of the stalwarts of the Re-
publican party is Senator Penrose,
but he is not one who sfit and bled"
and never died for his country. In
the Senate Friday he was loud in
demanding information as to the
conditions in Mexico. He, has threat
ened to stir a row if he is not sat-
isfied regardless Of the explanation
of Senator Bacon, chairman of the
Foreign Relations Committee, who
is zealously in accord with Presi-
dent Wilson's policy towards Mex
leo. Penrose's howl is for political
effect, but he will reap little if any
advantage from his attitude, which
may be interpreted as an indirect
reflection on the President and his
peace policy.
The Caucasian., 1913-08-17
President Wilson Emphatic.

As announced from the National
Capital, President Wilson has IN
formed the Democratic senator's
that he is, unalterably opposed to
any recess Of the Senate between
the time the tariff bill is passed and
the currency legislation is taken up.
1t is President Wilson's opinion that
the Democrats as the dominant
party should proceed with unalter-
able determination to transact the
business for which the special ses-
sion was called, and not trade with
the minority. The President is right
and has the endorsement and the
support Of the good citizens Of the
United States, excepting, perhaps,
the politicians.

Texas C,rOD Report.

AS reported from Dallas, Texas
from information received from al
parts Of the State, the crops are not
greatly injured by dry Wetaher, but
unless rain comes next week the
farmers will suffer. The weather
played trick this year by an un-
usual amount Of local rains, making
one farmers crops good while his
neighbor a few miles away may suf-
fer for lack of moisture
This is the condition in Louisiana
and other States where the rainfall
has been partially localized.

Sterling Harrell has recovered his
auto. It was in the possession of
Norbert T. Irby, who was arrested

On reaching New Orleans he took
the car to garage and had it
washed and cleaned. Trby will be
returned to Shreveport for trial.

ALMOST KILLED.
Miss The!ma Chance. Aged Twelve
Years, Seriously Injured by an
Automobile.

Friday night about 9 o'clock Miss
Thelma Chance, aged II years. was
struck by an automobile as she was
crossing Texas avenue at Levy
street. The auto was in charge OF
Sales Wright, the negro chauffeur
for H. J. Allen, owner of the ma
chine In the car rode Mrs. Allen and
several ladies with |. NJ Houston,
A. Allen and Ernest Ellington. After
the accident Mrs. Allen stated that
the machine was speeding at the
rate Of from twelve to fifteen miles
an hour and that Miss Chance ran
directly in front of the machine and
therefore the accident was unayoid-
able. ~
The father of Miss Thelma Chance
in his statement declared that when
his daughter started to run across
the street no auto was visible, and
before her peril had scarcely been
realized she was struck by the ma
chine, which he said was being op-
Grated rapidly. When his daughter
was struck she was thrown a dis
tance of about thirty feet. Forum
ately his daughter was not killed,
but she sustained serious if not fatal
injuries consisting of the fracture
Of the frontal bone and bruises OF
the body and the head.
Immediately following this acci-
dent the Allen car was reversed and
directed towards Miss Chance to as
sist her, but an auto speeding by at
the time had stopped, in which she
was conveyed to the hospital, where
she is being given the best care and
attention. o.
| At a late hour last evening the re-
port fromthe hospital was that Miss
Chance was doing we'll.
How to avoid accidents is a prob
lem, but here is presented an in
I,stance where before running across
the street Miss Chance had exer-
cised all due diligence and where
the occupants Of the auto assert
that the speed Of the machine was
from twelve to fifteen miles an
| hour.
Is not the speed Of from twelve to
fifteen miles too great on public
thoroughfares?
