HISTORY REVERSED.
Forty Days and Nights of Drouth in
Washington County.

Palmer, Kan, Aug. 9.-History is
being reversed in Washington county,
Kansas. Once upon a time there was
a terrible rain that lasted for forty
days and forty nights. 1t covered the
whole earth, and those who escaped
did so because a man who was warned
built an ark, and took into it the few
favored humans and animals who af-
forwards populated the earth.
In Washington county for forty days
and forty nights there has not been
a drop of rain, and instead of search
ing eagerly for green twig as proof
that the waters are receding, the dove
is hunting for spring where a cool
ing drink may be found. And it al
most is as hard to find.
A merchant at Palmer, taking ad-
vantage of the weather, has printed
an advertise ment on the cement walk
in front of his store.
"Footscrapers and husking pegs"
the ad reads, "one-half off regular
price," and then as an afterthought
in the event of breaking the drouth
he adds, subject to change without
notice..
It is an old. old saying that his
tory repeats ITSELF But the Wash
ington county people think the second
word ought to be changed and the say
ing read rather, history reverses it
self 1t would be more apt just now.

In the fall of 1863 the triumvirate

the imperial crown was offered to

Mexican people.
A special envoy was sent to Wash
ington to obtain the recognition of
the Mexican empire, but both PreSi-
dent Lincoln and Secretary of State
Seward absolutely refused to receive
the envoy in his official capacity or
to grant him a personal audience.
On January 1, 1865, President
Juarez issued a proclamation from
the field acknowledging the defeat
and dispersal of the Mexican armies,
but appealing to the people of Mex
leo to support the national cause and
to oppose the foreign invaders. In
response, General Diaz, who had been
captured and held as a prisoner, es-
capped and took the field with a force
of 4 guerillaS, which soon Increased

To the Editor of the State Journal:
In seeking to form some conclusion
as to the best way to treat the Mexican
question. and to form an opinion as to
the future of the country from its past
history since its separation from Span
ish rule, it's revolutions and changes of
government have been so many that L
have arranged them in their sequence,
and as you may deem them of sufficient
interest to your readers, to have
place in your columns L submit the
same in the following form:
When in 1921. the people of Spain in
a revolution drove the king and his
near supporters from that country and
established the Spanish republic. Mex
leo under the lead of General Iturbide
declared its independence of Spain, and
offered it's crown to Ferdinand VII OF
Spain. On his refusal to accept of the
crown of Mexico in 1922, on the 18th
of May General Iturbide proclaimed the
Empire of Mexico with himself as its
emperor, and was crowned as such in
July, 1922.
In May of 1923 General Santa Ana
headed revolution and proclaimed the
Mexican republic, with himself as tho
provisional president, and General
Iturbide accepted a pension and retired
to Cuba, but on his return to. Mexico
in 1924. he was tried for treason to the
republic. condemned and executed.
Santa Ana retired from the presi-
dency in 1880. upon a pension, but
when Texas declared her independence
in 1885, he headed a revolution declar-
ing himself the Dictator of Mexico and
was successful in securing control of
the government. On account of injuries
to F'renchmen in Mexico during its reyo-
1utions a French squadron bombarded
Vera Cruz in 1888. and while in charge
of the army opposing the French,

Denver convention by ]. T. Donehue,
the work of the touring bureau of the
Federation of American MotorcyclistS
has been very successful during the
past year, and has proven of definite
value to F. A. NJ. members
The establishment of the bureau
was authorized at the 1912 convention
at Columbus, Ohio, its purpose being
to facilitate motorcycle touring by
information concerning roads, gar
scenic features and danger points
along any route he may be contem
plating. Since the touring bureau was
established information has been
gathered from individual riders who
are familiar with certain stretches of
country, and this information has
been sorted and listed into definite
routes between certain points.
However, the number of applica-
inquiries requiring special informa
ton have increased so rapidly that it
is impossible for Manager Donehue
and his assistant to handle the work.
Mr.. Donehue has therefore proposed
that a printed folder be gotten out
containing all of the listed tours, or
that the federation purchase a series
of reliable road maps. These maps
would give information concerning
permit the bureau to devote more
time to handling the inquiries which
require special observation-disclosures
quiries relative to licenses. state speed
regulations, lighting requirements.
shipping regulations, points of inter
est in different states and foreign
touring and custom rules.

Failure to Find Ii Advanced
as Proof That She Did
Not Kill Herself.
NO MARRIAGE PACT,
DEFENCE DECLARES
DR.. Craig Said Merely to Have
Been a Friend - Woman
Called a Failure.

Shelbyvile, Ind, Dec 2.-The defence
had its inning to-day in the trial of DR..
William 3. Craig for the murder Of DR..
Helene Knabe. At the morning session.
a vigorous assault was directed against
the states case, as outlined yesterday
I'm a three hour address by Henry y.
Span. of counsel for the accused man.
Dr.. Craig was exhibited 70 the jury as
prosecuted man, who not only could
estab lish A reputation for clean living
through the testimony of one hundred
witnesses. but who also could produce
other witnesses to swear that he was
elsewhere until late hour, at least on
the night he is alleged to have killed Dr.
Knabe in her fiat.
One feature Of the case which the pros
ecution regards as Of the utmost I'M
portance in the chain Of circumstances
tending 10 prove murder is the fact that
the knife with which Dr. Knabe's throat
was cut has not bee found. Had she
killed herself, it is pointed out. the knife
must have been found in her room, and
it is contended that the murderer must
have carried it away with him, or else
have cleansed of blood the surgical In
struments found in Or. Knabe's apart
ments.
When the prosecution again assumed
the aggressive 1t the afternoon session
and began the introduction OF witnesses
in support of its case, the defence met
the attack boldly The hypothesis OF
murder on the one side was pitted against
the suicide theory on the other, and when
the day ended there was no testimony
before the jury to show by what means
DR.. Knabe came 20 he, death.
Mr.. Spaan declared that there was
nothing in the relations of his client with
DR.. Knabe 70 furnish a motive for the
crime with which Craig was charged.
They were never more than friends, ne
said: there had been no promise OF mar
riage, and Dr. Craig could have had no
reason for desiring the womans death.
DR.. Knabe he pictured as a failure in
her professional life. a woman grown de-
spondent through a succession of reverses
in her business career He said that many
circumstances would be introduced to sus-
tain the probability that she died BY her
own hand.
DIR. Knabe was a mannish woman,
fighter, but she was not successful said
Mr.. Span. She borrowed money from
her friends frequently because she was
unable to make a living at the practice
OF medicine, and at the time OF her
death she was preparing to train herself
for physical culture work"
lie asserted that her cousin, Dr.
Augusta Knabe knew that she was de-
spondent because Of her failure in life
and had told a friend. who would be
produced as a witness, that she was
afraid DR.. knabe would commit suicide
Mr.. Spaan declared that it was the duty
of the state TO point out clearly ana
beyond reasonable doubt how Craig had
cut DR.. Knabe's throat. II had failed TO
do so in its opening statement he saId'
