The Royal MontIr-and Royal Disease.
Sudden changes of weather are es.
pecially trying, and probably to none
more SO than to the scrofulous and

of scrofula-its punches, cutaneous
eruptions, and wasting Of the bod

the great good many sufferers from

enough to make 1t the most famous
medicine in the world. There is

HERINGToN MAYOR AND
COUNCIL DON'T AGREE

Harrington Times: The mayor and
councilmen have been holding q
three-day debate on the question OF
whether or not George Brockman Is
the superintendent of the light and
water department.
The mayor and four councilmen
maintain that he is not because his
contract expired on the night OF
September 80. The remaining four
councilmen maintain that he is the
superintendent for the reason that
no successor has been chosen.
Mayor Rooms notified Mr. Brock
man in writing to cease his duties
on October first and turn his office
over to the city. The four council
men who favor Mr.. Brockman told
him to keep the key, stay on the
job and protect the plant and its
interests until another superinten-
dent was selected. He still has the
key and is still around the office,
taking care of whatever his attention
is called to.
Mayor Rooms says that VIM. Lew
Is, chairman of the water and light
department, will be in charge of the
plant until a superintendent is SCI
cured. The matter will come up at
the next regular meeting October
18th.
At least three councilmeh have
told the Times in the past week that
Herington should have the commits
sion form of government. One of
them sized up the situation in this
manner:
"The present councilmen and the
mayor are hopelessly' divided and in
my opinion win never accomplish
anything of benefit to the city unless
some miracle happens which will
mite them again. would not blame

,ut and adopt commission govern

wHAT KINpERGARTENs DO.
First Years Most Important,
Says Mis- Gray.

/
| The welfare of little children 1
being questioned more and more Il
this day of complex living. Ye
what an army OF people seems indlf
ferent to everything EXCEPT IT'S owr
pieasuresl
Two arguments are offered fol
inaction. One Is. that the children
OF the past grew up to be pretty
good specimens Of manhood and wo-
manhood without kindergartehs;
the other. that II is tht duty of the
public schools to take care OF the
little children.
We little realize that the first
seven years are the years which set
the pattern for all the rsst-that
often what Is learned then has to
be unleArned later, with greater ef-
fort.
Consider the first statement. Be-
cause humanity has been fairly well
educated in the past is that any suf-
ficient reason why It should not be
greatly bettered and uplifted? In
the light OF what many years have
taught us, surely we want to grow
better and more serviceable to each
other.
In answer to the second argu-
ment, It is as much the duty OF the
state to care. for the child at four
as at six years of age. Even more
SO, as these are the most important
years in childhood. II we can pro-
vide sunny, healthy rooms and play
grounds, wise and well-trained teach
srs of sympathetic natures to care
'or our children, we will do more
Tor the future good and moral
health life, saS we'll as the physical
and mental health, than all the re-
agencies combined.
The kindergarten is a stepping
stone to the primary work OF public |
schools. The life In the kindergar-
ZEN saves much physical, mental and
moral adjustment to little children
n the first few months of school.
The play life of the child is rec
'gnized not only as natural, but also
necessary, and plays and games form
! means of truly educative worth.
They are taught and selected with
lirect reference to his growth.
The play-work experiences are in
Iccord with his own individual
leeds. No two children are alike.
This is the period when children
should be fed with beautiful ex-
to make for real artistic
bility later. The social relation
hip, offered through games, work, /.
tories, etc, give him opportunities
Q realize fairness, justice and mer-
y on the plane OF equality -
Let each one plAdge his inf1u-
nee to help the cause of childhood
y substituting this new education
'r the old one Of repression. Give :
very child chance of being more
uly himself and thus enable him
live more rightously in all his
'cial contact. This will ultimately
AXE better homes, a better par s
lthood, and a more worthy citizen
Up. We can then better than ever
fore be a nation more worthy the :
otherhood we profess. AA 4

B DEAD AT
 LONG BEACH
More Than 100 Persons Injured in Auditorium CollapSe-AS the Crowd Rushed Into Build
 ing Floor Gave Way.

Long Beach. Cal, May 2i.-Thir- ty-three persons were killed and 100 injured when a section of the second floor of the Long Beach Auditorium collapsed this morning and dropped a struggling mass of men, women and children 9 feet through the first floor and upon the sands below.
 Crowd Waited at Locked Doors.
 The accident occurred at Il:35 o'clock, when nearly 1000 persons rushed through the doors into the building. The doors had been locked until a few moments before and the people had been waiting for hours to get seats for the open ing ceremonies of the British Elm pire Day celebration.
 The first few sections of a long street parade had just entered the building, when the rush of eager spectators came. The floor gave way with an awful crash. A panic followed, but a few clear heads kept the crowds back while the work of rescue began. An hour was consumed in carrying out the dead and injured to improyised m0rgues.
 Men Were in the Parade.
 Only a comparatively small num- Der of men were caught in the trap, as most of the men were taking part ill the parade. Many who were not standing on the section which collapsed were drawn or pushed into the vortex, and those who es- capped crowded panlc-strlcken to- ward the outer rail of the pier, starting a wild scramble for safety.
 Those who fell into the hole last were able to scramble over the broken ends of .Ae floor, so deep was it massed with struggling bod ies. Fallen timberS and flooring were damned among the limbs of those caught in the trap and ropes were required to pull back the jag ged edges of the sunken flooring and broken joists before the dead and injured could be taken out.
 Crash Seen by 25,OO0.
 Fully 25,O00 visitors had come to the beach for the celebration and remained to witness the scenes following the disaster. With thou sands crowded about the auditori- um outside the ropes. talking in awed tones, the work of removing the dead from the auditorium to establishments was carried on.
 All afternoon following the trag- edy eager crowds rushed from one morgue tO another. seeking to iden- tify bodies lying there, fearing that their loved ones were stretched lifeleSs on marble slabs Many were seriously injured, but only meager could be secured, as the injured were widely scattered.
 It Is believed that several were SD severely injured that the death list will be increased.
 \ Picnic Party Killed.
 Several picnickers were making coffee on the sand under the audi torium platform, which collapsed, were killed outright when the mass of humanity came hurtling down upon them.
 The Long Beach council held an executive session late today, and it was announced by Mayor Hatch that the municipal government was assuming all expense, paying the funeral costs for the dead and sup plying funds for the relief of the injured.
 The auditorium. like the pier up- on which it was built ten years ago, is owned by the city.

DIAMOND MINES IN
 FEDERAL COURT
Owners of Pike County Field Seek to Stop Work, Claiming Terms of Lease Have Not Been
 Fulfilled.

Texarkana, May 23.-The case of NJ. N. Mauney and Bettie L. Mau- hey vs. the kimberlite Diamond Mining and Washing Company. filed in the Pike Chancery court and ordered removed to the Federal court in this district, was filed with Col. t. t. Hudspeth, clerk of the Federal court here, yesterday.
 The petition of the plaintiffs al- leges that during the year 1912 they entered into d contract with How ard A. Miller and his associates, whereby they agreed to erect mod eru diamond washing machinery of African type on the land of the plaintiffs near Kimberly, in Pike county for washing and testing diamonds; that the plant, according t1 the terms of the contract, was to be in operation not later than April lu 1918, with a capacity of washing 10000 loads of l6 cubic feet each year; that the contract was not fulfilled, and by reason thereof the contract Is null and void, but that the defendants are still at work removing stones in defiance of the rights of the plain tllfs, 10 their great and irreparable wrong, and for these reasons they ask for a permanent injunction re- >trainins the defendants, their agents or employees from going upon the land and mining diamonds or otherwise interfering in any manner with the property.
 In their cross bill the defendants admit they entered into a Clntract with the plaintiffs by which they were 10 install machinery f9t the purpose of washing diamonds aud otherwise developing the property, and that the contract was not car ried out in all details: they further state that the contract contained numerous stipulatiOns not men toned by the plaintiffs in their pe- tition, and that these stipulations were made with the knowledge and consent of the plaintiffs. The de- tendautS further state at the time the contract expired that 90 per cent of the machinery was installed and that failure to install the other according to contract was due to the fact that it was impossible to get the machinery on the grounds from the fact that on account of the nature of the construction it required more time for its manu- facture than was at first thought necessary and that they were in no way responsible for the delay.
 This suit involves the property in what is considered one of the richest diamond mines in the Pike county diamond fields, and the out come will be watched with consid- erable interest in many sections.
 The case will probably be heard lat the November term of Federal court
