HowAT QUITS UNDER FIRE.
President of District No. IA, United
Mine Workers, Resigns During
Recent Pittsburg Convention

Following a day or tumult at the
convention of the United Mine Work
ers of America, district No. IA, Pitts
burg, Alex Howat resigned as presi-
dent of the district Howat's action
came after John p White, national
president of the union, had reported
to the convention the result of an in
vestigation of charges against Howat
and Fred Holt, secretary of the Ok
lahoma-Arkansas district No. 81, of
accepting more than $40, 900 from the
operators for making favorable scale
contracts.
President White told the convention
that Howat's usefulness was at an
end, but said that he did not believe
that there was money enough among
the operators to bride Howat. Ho-
watts social relations with Joseph
Hazen, an independent operator, who
testified that he paid Howat and Holt
the money, President White said. had
caused the growth of the sentiment
against Howat.
The convention adopted a resolu-
ton asking President White to wire
President Wilson a request to make
an investigation of the Colorado strike
situation and requesting White, if
President Wilson should refuse, to be-
gin a movement for a complete strike
of the union miners of the country.

THE GAME OF RING TOSS.
BY A. Nicely HALL.

You will all declare this game to
be jolly fun. once you have played 1t.
and as it requires only simple ap-
paratus that Is easily and quickly
made
There is a target consisting of nine
pins, arranged upon the ground in
rows of three pins each. and there
are three rings. Each player In turn
tries to toss the rings over the target
pins. The pins bear numbers. as you
will see by Fig. 1, and these numbers
are used in determining the scores.
The pin in the exact center counts Is
points, the four corner pins count Is
points apiece, and the remaining pins
10 points apiece.
Nails or inches long should be
used for the pins. Four-inch nails are
the better length IL you can get them.
The ground would not hold these pins
firmly enough, If they were driven d.
rectly into it. so you must drive a
stake into the ground in the proper
position for each pin. and then drive

easily do the work herself. and, not
only that, she can also make the tent
by following the simple directions CIV
en- below.
Figure I shows the homemade tent

for the top. This makes a pleasing
dome-shaped roof, which gives the
tent touch of elegance. 1t does not
injure an umbrella in the least to use
it for'the tent; still. If you can find
an old one that is not badly broken,
it may be well to take it, because
there might be such thing as some
one piercing it with pointed stick;
then, too. by using an umbrella that
has been discarded, it will not be
necessary 70 take down the tent on
rainy days when every available UNI

having the small circular pieces SOL
dered into them Gig. A.. If the end
of the cans have been soldered on,
which is the usual method, it is only
necessary to place the cans one at a
time in a as-burner fame for a min
ute. This will melt the solder, and if
the end does not drop off of itself, it
will knock off easily by giving its edge
a blow with a hammer. The little
disk in the center of the end will also
drop out. with the melting of the sol
der which holds it in place. and your
completed ring disk will look like

A variation of the game of ring-toss
can be had by using the small centers
from the ends of the tin cans, and sub
stituting open cans for the pins Gig.

KANSAS BOOSTERS RETURN
Not An Accident Happened to Mar
Pleasure of Long Trip Through
the East.

The Southeast Kansas boosters
train, with nine of the eleven origi-
nal cars still attached, pulled into the
Missouri Pacific Station at Indepen-
dence after a trip to the East cover
ing about 300 miles. The boosters
came home weary but happy and
proud of their accomplishment, for
theirs was next to the biggest train
that was ever taken out on such a
trip. Their last stop was at st. Louis,
where they were entertained in royal
style. They were the guests of the
st. Louis Commercial Club, were
taken for a ride over the city in motor
cars and were in fact showered with
attentions.
On the first stop out of St. Louis
the boosters presented r. R. Bittman,
president of the excursion; George T.
Guernsey, Jr., treasurer, and G. F.
Debruner, secretary, silver loving
cups, as tokens of appreciation of the
fine work of the officers during the
trip.
1t has been a great voyage" the
boosters say, and they believe a great
deal of bread has been cast upon the
waters. The excursionists say they
travelled 300 mile by train, 10000 by
motor car and 1000 on foot. There
was not an accident nor case of i'll
ness on the trip.

line or heavy wrapping Irvine for
braces.
The tent may be placed in the back
yard, on the porch, or in the play
room. The first thing to do is to
fasten the end of the umbrella han
die to the chair back, by strapping it
to the cross bars with heavy Irvine
in the manner illustrated in Fig. 2.
The Irvine braces for the walls are
fastened to the tips of the umbrella
ribs, and the best way to attach them
is by using needle and thread and
sewing them to the little eyes in the
tips. The lower ends of the braces
should be tied to stakes driven into
the ground, If the tent is placed in the
yard. or to carpet tacks, thumb tacks,
or wall push-pins driven into the
floor, if the tent is placed upon the
porch or in a play-room. In order to
make the tent wider at its bottom,
the braces are slanted away from the
umbrella as in the illustration. TWEEN

locate on the ground the places for
the pins, by drawing three parallel
lines 6 inches apart, and then cross
ing these at right angles with three

The intersections of the lines will be

stakes 6 or 8 inches long, and drive
them down in the proper places SO
their tops will be even with or trifle
below the surface.

CANT ROB FARMERS
kansans Organize to Fight In
crease Demanded by Com
mission Men.
TO MEET IN EMPORIA MAY IS
Five Hundred Members of AgricuI-
turaI Organizations Expected to
Attend-To Form Federation.

The Lyon County Farmers Produce
Association of Emporia, Kas., has de-
cided not to stand for the increase in
commissions recently put into effect
at Kansas City and other market CEN
tiers. Commission men demand that
they be paid seventy-five cents a ton
for handling hay, instead of fifty cents.
This arbitrary increase of one-half,
apparently without reason, has caused
the farmers to take things into their
own hands. They propose to organ
ize, eliminate the middleman and sell
their hay directly to the man who
wants to buy it.
This association has obtained re-
suits In three months time it has
marketed 140 cars of hay directly to
consumers and has bought thirty cars
of grain for the farmers. They get
better prices for their hay, are not
affected by inexplicable fluctuations
of the market and save the commits
sion.
Friday, May 10, five hundred farm
ers will assemble in Emporia to con-
slider an organization. The meeting
will be held in the commercial club
rooms at 10 a. m. and 2 p. m, and
all interested farmers are invited. The
Kansas Grange, the Farmers Union
and the Anti-Horse Thief Association
will have a great number of represen-
tatives present. This will be gen
eral attendance of all Kansas hay men
and farmers. Without further invita-
ton. each local organization is re-
quested to send delegates.
This gathering probably will result
In a much needed federation of all
farmers organizations for a single
purpose. rather than the formation of
a new association to supersede the
older orders.
