GOVERNMENT FAVORS
EDUCATIONAL TRUST.

Washington, June 3O.-Recom-
mendation that an educational
trust" be launched through the
consolidation of many of the small
err colleges and state institutions Of
efficiency is made by DR.. X. G, Bah
cock of the United States bureau
of education.
In a statement issued by the bu-
reau today, calling attention to DR..
Babcock's plan, 1t is conceded that
the chief efficiency lies with the
state colleges and educational insti-
buttons. DR.. Babcock contends in
the year book of the commissioner
of education that there are too many
colleges inefficiently equipped and
that needless and expensive duplica-
ton of work is evident everywhere.
He believes the solution of the sit
uation lies in the merging of many
of the institutions, especially those
now attempting to teach advanced
or specialized" courses.

ARGUE OVER MERITS OF
STEEL AND WOOD WAGONS

Smith Center, June 30.-A large
crowd of farmers and a salesman
for steel wagon precipitated a
great deal Of excitement in a dis
pute over the respective merits Of
steel and wood wagons. iConsidera-
BILE i'll feeling was engendered and
several fights we're narrowly AVERT
ed. The salesman had loaded a
sample steel wagon with 10000
pounds of cement in sacks and after
knocking three spokes out of one
of the wheels made the trip around
block in safety, one horse doing
the pulling.
Then he offered 500 to anyone
who would produce a wood wagon
that would do the same thing. Three
farmers accepted the challenge and
going to a hardware dealer borrow
ed a wagon, and after saving three
spokes out of a front wheel, loaded
on the cement and made the requirz
ed distance without mishap, The
steel wagon salesman promptly9turn-
ed over the 500 and had no more
to say. 1t was the most excitement

Strikes Out Mutual Insurance Ex-
emptiOn.
OPPOSITION ON THE EXEMPTION
Senators Had Difficulty in Agree
ing on Premium for Children
Threatened to Delay
Measure.

Washington, July democrats
OF the senate in raucus late last
night approved the income tax sec
ton of the tariff bill as revised by
the majority members of the finance
committee, voting, however, to strike
out the amendment which would
exempt mutual life insurance COM
panies from the tax.
The caucus took up the income
tax report OF the committee para
graph by paragraph and when the
exemption clause was reached ev-
erybody wanted to talk at once.
Some senator's argued against the
committee amendment reducing the
general exemption from $4,000 to
$4,000 with $1,000 addition for mar
ried men and women with depend
ents, and $500 each for dependent
children. This opened the way for
countless suggestions.
Some senator's declared there
should be, no difference between
and single persons; others
argued If exemption were to be
made because of minor children de-
pendent upon a parents income,
that dependent grand children should
be included; that imbecile adult
children, cripples, invalids, relatives
and countless others that might be
,lassed as dependents, should be in
cluded. Discussion of this para
graph revealed an error in the eau
,us print of the bill authorized by
he committee. Originally the COM
nittee decided that exemption for
.hildren at $500 each should not
xceed two children or $1,000 extra
o the family, which would make
he maximum exemption $4,000.
When the committee revision of the
ill was printed, the limit on chill
dren's exemptions was omitted.
When this was discovered Senator
simmons informed the caucus that
be omission was unintentional and
hat the committee had intended to
init the amount to $1,000.

Climb Over Walls of Leavenworth
Prison.
WE'RE AIDED BY CRUDE DEVICE
Invention Like Mechanics Rule En-.
abled Prisoners to Scale the
Walls-Guards Were on
All Sides.

Leavenworth, June 3O.-Two con-
victs broke the bars of their cell
door which they had spent weeks in
saving, sawed the bars in dollhouse
window, in an open well lighted
corridor and in view Of all the other
cells, raised themselves through the
window by a contrivance of their
own invention, and dropped into a
waiting motor car last night, free.
The escape was the most sensational
in the history of the federal peni-
Tertiary here, for not guard was
molested. The men, Richard Os-
borne and Walter E. Laymen, both
have tried to escape before, but
their attempts always have been
frustrated. Osborne was serving
eighteen years for robbery in Wash
ington and Layman had been sent
up for three years from California
for counterfeiting.
The prisoners had left dummies
in their cots to throw off the guards.
The dummies we're perfect even to
false hair and it was some time be-
fore guard discovered that the
bars had been sawed.
The escaped men had sawed the
bars in their cell door and in the
dollhouse window, ten feet away.
To complete the latter work they
had to stand in the corridor in view
of the other cells. Crawling through |
a small hole in the window, the men
lifted themselves to the roof of the
dollhouse by means of an ingenious
,ontrivance resembling mechanics
rule.
1t was made of Stats of wood,
'ivited together and on the end was
/ hook, with which the men could
lraw themselves UP. The affair was
'ound on the prison wall, where the
'onvicts had placed it to lower
themselves to road beside the pri-
on and liberty. A guard remem-
,ers hearing a motor car shortly
Ifter midnight and it is presumed
t was in this the men escaped.
