EDNA IS
MUCH TO
HELPFUL

LNtle Edna Evans came near losing
her own life. and causing the death Of
another child to say nothing of the
destruction OF property yesterday,
when she innocently. in endeavor to
help" along with the housework,
started to make a FIRE in the kitchen
stove belonging to a neighbor, Mrs.
Mary Swans.
Both the Swans and the Evans live In
Stieglitz Park. the former at Indiana
boulevard and 131st street. Mrs. Swans
had gone to the house OF q neighbor

tie four year old daughter Ethel. in the
home. Edna had come over TO play and
work" with the other children of
whom there were six in the Swans
house at the time.
Wishing to make fire and having
seen others apply kerosene to the kind
ling. she thought to do likewise. but
made the mistake OF pouring a quanti-
ty of gasoline onto the wood The In
hammable fluid caught fire at once. the
flames communicating with the gaso-
line can, which exploded. throwing z
burning oil all over the room. Edna

Topeka, Feb. 3.-Two incidents,

Speaker w. L. Brown received an
anonymous letter from the south
east part Of the state, making yelled
threats against his life because of

Governor Hodges received tin

inside that has a peculiar sound
when the can Is handled. The tin
can and its contents have been plac-
ed in a safe place unopened.
The tin can. which may or may
not be something dangerous. was
received by Sam seaton, executive
clerk to the governor. It Is post

CommissIen Governmcnt
In State.

Topeka, Feb. Ian adniiniStrae-
ton measure. right from . member
Of the senate who is close, to the
Hodges throne, and from the sen
ator Who soon Is to become the head
Of one Of the states largest penal
institutions, was introduced In the
senate yesterday when J. W. Howe
Of Dickinson county submitted an
act providing for state board OF
corrections-this board to manage
and control the penitentiary, the
industrial reformatory, the indus
trial school for boys and the In
dustrial school for girls, /,
Senator Howe Is to be appointed
superintendent OF the state reform
atory at Hutchinson, according to
alle we'll developed and undenied
rumors around the senate chamber.
This bill, coming from his pen, VIII
place the penal institutions in q
position most advantageous the
administration. Senator Howe is
chairman OF the charitable and pen
al institutions committee Of the SEN
ate, thus giving him greater lati-
tude in preparing the governing OF
these institutions to his liking.
The act provides. that after its
passage the governor shall within
thirty days appoint with the advice
and consent Of the senate three mem
bers-no more than two Of the same
political faith and from the same
congressional district--to compose
the state board of corrections.

1t on shelf in a safe place. / don't
know what 1t is, and am not curious
about It,"
Speaker Brown refused to discuss
the letter he received from the min
ing section. He received it and put
1t away. He isn't scared. And it
isn't likely that the receipt of the
anonymous letter will make any
difference in his stand on the labor
bill.
The bill to which objection is
made Is the one making the state
labor commissioner, the head of the
Bureau of Labor and Industry, the
Bureau OF Mines and Mining and
the State Free Employment agency,
and making him appOintive by the
governor. Heretofore the heads
Of the different departments have
been selected by the labor organiEa-
lions. There is great opposition
among the labor organizations to
the measure. which BY the way, has
passed the house.

BISHOP MOORE WON'T
PAY DOLLAR FINE.
"A Great Principle Is Involved IN
This Suit" He says.

"A CfeaC EftncipIC ID hsONO
This Suit" He Says.
Kansas City, Feb. S.-Bishop Da-
yid H. Moore has been fighting for
principle ever since he entered the
Civil war as volunteer. and he is
determined that he will not lay
aside principle now and admit he
was wrong when he wrote the letter
that caused him to be sued for libel
by Mrs. Carrie Cope of Topeka.
II am not afraid of the world,
the flesh or the devil, and will not
be bluffed by libel suit" he told
his critics when they threatened to
sue unless he signed written apol-
ogy. The bishop still feels the
same way and he will not pay the
one dollar that the jury awarded
Mrs. Cope without exhausting every
legal means.
"a great principle is involved in
this suit and am going to settle
It," he said yesterday. $No one
can carry ON the affairs of great
institution If he can not write his
honest opinion to others connected
with the work. Bankers often write
far more damaging things than were
in this letter and If this decision
stands they will be liable If any one
chooses to sue"
C. w. Trickett, attorney for the
bishop, said yesterday that he would
file a motion to set aside the ver-
dict this morning.
The jury in the libel suit against
the bishop brought by Mrs. Cope of
Topeka awarded the plaintiff one
dollar damages in its verdict Sat-
urday. Mrs. Cope had sued for $780,
900.

THE EXCLUSIVE FEW.

The following is from an inter-
view with DR.. 0. A. Holmes, cop
led from Milwaukee, Wis, daily
paper:
"Do you wear glassesY if not,
you ought to unless you happen
to be one of the lucky five per
cent who do not need artificial
aids to vision"
Perfect vision, says DR..
Holmes, is very rare, at least 95
per cent of the people have some
optical defect which ought to be
corrected by glasses. Most people
don't realize that their headaches
or their stomach trouble or their
nervousness is the result of eye
strain and they waste fortunes
trying to get relief that a compe-
tent specialist could give them at
once. In my experience l have
known all sorts of constitutional
disorders to be cured by merely
wearing properly fitted glasses. y
The above is a positive truth,
but, expert eye examination is alb
solutely necessary to determine
the proper kind of glasses to use
to get the desired results. Select
ing them by any other method
may result in permanent injury
to your sight.
When we prescribe glasses il
is with absolute certainty thai
they are the best and only kinc
suited to your eyes. Come and b'
examined anyway. If you do mo-
need glasses we will tell you Sc
and make no charge for examina
ton.
Be sure to see DIR. w. S. Jack
son, the Eyesight Specialist, IL
