Corset Stay Saved Girl Shot BY Lover

Corset Stay Saved Girl Shot by Lover.
Houston, Tex, Jan. S.-A corset
stay saved the life of Miss Augusta
Matula today when John Thomas Jones
shot at her twice with a pistol at close
range. Jones then killed himself
One of his bullets wounded Miss
Matula in the cheek, but the one which
struck the corset did not leave a
scratch. Jones shot the young woman
because she refused to marry him. He
was a machinist and she is table
waitress.
When Miss Matula refused to marry
Jones, the latter drew a revolver and
fired twice. Believing that both bull
lets had taken effect, he turned the
weapon upon himself, and died in
few minutes. Persons attracted by the
shots found Miss Matula in a fainting
condition from fright, but the bullet
which otherwise would have killed her
had fiattened against one of the ribs
of her corset.

From NinIta TO Ioniin

The Frisco is considering changes
in its new time table, in effect since
December 20, and it is PROBABLE that
a change will be announced soon
whereby there will be day train from
Vinita, Miami and Baxter Springs TO
Joplin.
A great deal of unfavorable comment
has been caused recently by the faet
that there is no direct day train from
these towns to Joplin. Only by taking
a circuitous route may a passenger
reach Joplin from Baxter Springs by
day.
Within few days, according to Jop-
lin Frisco officials. an agreement prob
ably viii result in the running of a
day train from Vinita to joplin.

The lake in North Park and the

thronged with skaters yesterday and
until a late hour last night. The young
people all were trying to get in on the

kept the people in the vicinity of the

there will no doubt be larger parties
tonight than yesterday, so get your

Pixies Peak Not the Highest.

What is the highest mountain in
Colorado? Pixies Peak nineteen per.
sons out of twenty will answer and
incorrectly. The twentieth may know
that the two highest mountains in the
state are Mount Massive and Mount
Elbert, both in Lake county, in the
Ledville district The altitude of each
Of these mountains, according to the
United States Geological Survey, is
14,402 feet above sea level. The height
of Pixies Peak is 14,10S feet. Moreover,
there are fifty or sixty other peaks
in Colorado approximately as high
over $4,000 feet. The lowest point in
Colorado is 1850 feet above sea level.
OF all the state Colorado has the high
est average altitude estimated by the
Geological Survey as $500 feet.
Although not the highest mountain,
Pixies Peak is probably the bestknown
peak in the United States. There was
at one time a weather bureau station
on its summit, and it now has a sub
stantial railway station at the term
mus of the highest railway line in
North America 1t can also be reached
by an excellent wagon road and trail
which connect the summit with Colo
RADIO Springs.

Senate Opposes cruce.

Open war between Governor Cruce
and the senate broke out today when
the governor refused to recognize the
action Of the senate in rejecting the
appointment of Lon Frame as member
Of the board of public affairs. Frame
continued to serve today and the gov.
ernor said he would not appoint his
successor until convinced that he was
legally ousted.
Senator Thomas gave out state
ment that the senate journal will show
that Frame was rejected. Governor
Cruce holds that the vote of the SEN
ate, q for confirmation and Is against
was sufficient to confirm, being a ma
iority of the quorum, while the senate
holds that constitutional majority
is required
The governor today reappointed
John Z. Doolin state fish and game
warden and Ben Riley secretary of
the election board because of the fail
ure of the special session to vote on
their confirmation.

from lack of nourishment. Such a
stomach needs to be cleaned and

ach to digest food, and promote a
healthy appetite. This remedy is

A VALUABLE ASSET


Pullman IS known as a dry town.
but since the completion Of the new
CITY well 1t IS in reality the Wettest
city IN Eastern Washington. Enough
arteslan water IS flowing out of the
new lO-lnch gusher to more than
supply the needs OF Pullman, ColiaN
and all the other towns OF Whitman
county. 1t is wonderful asset, this
great Underground reservoir OF pure
colo water which gushes out for the
use OF man and beast whenever
tapped. the possession OF this asset
has been and will. continue to be one
OF the most important factors in the
growth OF Pullman and the people
should make the most of it.
Nature has provided a supply of
water for the city as pure as it is
plentiful, and it only remains for
man to devise ways and means by
which the water can be distributed
to the citizens in abundant ouanti-
ties at a low cost. The new we'll has
solved the water question in Pull
man for all time to come provided a
proper distributing plant is CON
structed. The problems involved
are: to free the water from all sand:
to elevate it in the cheapest way
possible to a reservoir high enough
to furnish ample pressure in all
parts of the city, and to distribute II
from that reservoir through a sys-
tenn of tight and durable mains. \
plant is needed of sufficient capac-
ity to take care, not only Of the
present needs of the city, but to
meet its increasing requirements for
many years to come. The plans sug-
gested to solve these problems are
to construct a larSe settling tank
into which the water from the we'll
will flow. To construct over or ad-
jacent to the tank permanent
building to house the pumping ma
chinery. To increase the height Of
the present reservoir or install a
standpipe on College hill. TO remove
all wooden pipe and substitute iron
mains of sufficient capacity, and to
extend these mains to meet all legiti-
mate demands.
1t is good business to start right.
