Fingers Blown OFF

Bessie, the little daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Walt Woods, who
live south of Meade, met with a
serious accident last Sunday.
With her parents she was at
the home of Silas Pontius. She
was playing in the yard and
picked up dynamite cap, un-
conscious of what it was. AS she
played with the dangerous toy,
it exploded, blowing off the
thumb and index finger on her
right hand and badly lnjuring
her face. 1t seems that Mr..
Pontius had been blasting holes
for trees and had this one cap
left and which he had placed on
a shelf out of reach. 1t must
have been blown to the floor and
was swept out into the yard,
where it was picked up by the
child.

WHEAT IN
FINE SHAPE
At The Present Time Estimate
Il One Hundred Percent

Much depends upon the COM
ing harvest, and just at this time
hopes for an abundant yield
could hardly be higher; still con-
ditions which cannot be controll-
ed may yet play dlsasterous
part and spoil it all, but so far.
Fate seems to be smiling on the
Meade county planter. Some of
the wheat is reported to be blow
ing out, however, this condition
is by no means general, and is
only true of the later sown
wheat which was not sufficiently
rooted to withstand the late win
ter and early spring winds.
Until something to the con-
trary happens, you may all ex-
pect a bountiful harvest.

sun was beating down upon him
and the perspiration was rolling
from him in streams. Finally

The Chapel Car. ':st Peter"

AAA~0 NhSA NAOAAOy -
$3.50.
Something of the history of
this car may interest our read
ers: The Chapel Car ''St. Pet
er" is the second car built for,
and donated to, The Catholic
Church Extension Society for
mission work along railroad lines
in sections of the country where
Catholics are few and widely
scattered. This car is the gen.
erous gift of a resident of the
Dayton, Ohio.
The personnel of the Grew"
on board the Car consist of: the
chaplain sometimes assisted by
one more priests appointed by
the bishop of the diocese in
which the car is operating); the
superintendent, who looks after
all material details required for
the proper care and successful
operation of the Car; and one at
tendant, who is both cook and
porter.
The Chapel Car is a complete
church on wheels. The Chapel
IS equipped with every appoint
ment found in a big church.
Services are held with as much
solemnlty and convenience as in
permanent church building.
Chapel Car 'St. Peter" is con-
structed of steel; it has copper
roof, and is finished throughout
in Cuban mahogany. The lines
of architecture in the interior
are strictly Gothic. The gross
length of the car is 81 feet, one
of the longest cars made. The
part set aside for the chapel is
As feet, long and has comfort-
able seating capacity for seventy
four persons. The. remaining
space is used as living quarters
by the Screw. The compart-
ments are: the study, used also
as dining room, library, Office,
and sleeping apartment; lavatory
and toilet room; chaplain's sleep
ing compartment; and kitchen.
The cost of the car, completed,
was $50, 900.
On board the car we're: Rev.
p J. MacCorry,, Cathedral, Vic
ita, and Staff Lecturer of the
Redpath Lyceum and Chautau-
qua System; Rev. Geo. Schnei-
der, who has charge of the
the Meade church, and Mr.. Geo.
c. Hennesy, Superintendent.
On Sunday evening, at the
opera house, Rev. MacCorry de-
livered lecture on the Chris
tian Home. Rev. MacCorry
has been on the lecture platform
for number of years. and is
among the best. His
lecture was fine, and from the
close attention given by the aud
ience, which filled the opera
house to its fullest capacity, and
from the many favorable COM
ments we haye heard, 1t was
we'll received. Father Mac
Cory is an interesting as well
IS a convincing speaker, and
.hese attributes, coupled with his
pleasing personality, soon win
or hIm the respect and the adj
of his audiences. It
surely was treat to hear Rev.
Mac Corey.
The solo, by Mr.. Hennesy,
ust before the lecture, has been
highly spoken of.
In this connection we desire,
m behalf of the members of the
Catholic Church of Meade, to
hank all those who were pres
mt.
The fact that the ministers of
he other churches dismissed
heir congregations early, in or
Ier that they might attend the
ecture, IS certainly deserving of
avorable mention, and gives

As we stated in the press Bureau
last week. one hundred and sixty
thousand dollars of this has been
taken ont of the general revenues
of the state for 1913-1gl4. What
troubles them is how to make
this item square With their al-
legations that the Hodges admin
istratlon has been more expen-
slve than the Stubs admins
tration and they have concluded
that it is best to pass the matter
over in silence.
Our Republican friends we're
30 busy the past ten years spend
ing the general revenue fund
that in all that time they we're
only able to set aside $7s, 900,
while the Hodges administration
decreased its revenue by repeal
ing the inheritance tax and is
still able to save one hundred
and sixty thousand dollars in
eighteen months to apply on the
public debt.
This looks like nlnety-elght
per cent business item.
Mr.. Allen last week set Mr..
Capper very good lesson in
journalism. Mr.. Allen is editor
and owner of the "Wichita Bea-
con" one of the biggest dailies in
Kansas, almost if not quite as
large as the Topeka Capital. 7"
la an editorial, Mr.. Allen declar-
ed that his paper would not be
used to boost his own candidacy,
or to laud his own achievements
with view to getting votes; that
the people paid for newspaper
and were entitled to have news
paper.
Contrast this if you will, with
Mr.. Capper's paper which is filled
every day with fake letters tell
ing what fine man Mr.. Capper
is and how we'll everybody likes
him and what great work he is
doing for the state, without TAX
ing notice of the fact that for
years he has carried advertising
that would get any obscure coun-
try newspaper man a big fine
and a jail sentence. Only last
year he carried advertisements
for big lottery scheme in the
guise of a guessing contest"
which IS said to have taken as
much as $15O,0O0, out of Kansas
and which was undoubtedly a
violation of the Kansas anti-lot-
terry law.
The scattered remnant of the
"old guard" of "stand pat and
hold tight" Republicans are be-
ginning to be alarmed lest they
haYe overdone the harmony"
business. 1t has now been made
clear that there is not going to
be any great amount of harmony
and that the Progressives are
going to put out full state tick
ct. Nevertheless the stand pat
ters are beginning to show signs
of alarm. They are not now and
never were for Arthur Capper,
but they thought it would be a
good thing to get him back into
the party and so take the infiu-
ence of his publications away
from the Progressives. 1t now
seems probable that when Arth-
ur boards the good ship &c. O.
p" he will bring with him the
old crew with which he sailed to
defeat in 1912, and rumor has 1t
that Dolley will resume his place
at the head of the Republican
State Central Committee and
Nat the returning prodlgals will
be in position to grab all the
pie, if anything of that sort IS
sighted. And the stand patters
are beginning to look askance at

Giant insects Of the Tropics Have
Forty-Two Feet, and Every
Claw Is Poisonous.

The giant centipede of Trinidad and
Venezuela is sometimes foot long,
and can do very serious harm. Its
foremost pair CT feet are modified into
supplementary jaws, which are fang
like. and may infiict powerful bite;
furthermore. each has a poison gland
at its base, that sends into the wound
a venom deadly to small creatures
and very painful even to mankind.
Moreover the sharp claw of each or
the AZ feet is poisonous likewise, so
that when the animal crawls over the
soft skin of the hun an arm, 1t leaves
a trail of red, infamed spots. 1t IS
dangerous to knock the centipede on,
for instantly the creature drives the
claws more deeply into the flesh, and
sends greater amount of venom
into each puncture; it may also take
hold with its jaws.
When the centipede seizes its prey,
or is itself caught by an enemy, it
coils itself round it's antagonist, and
grips it tenaciously with all its legs.
Many myriapods are brightly banded
with black and yellow, contrasting
tints that show conspicuously against
the dark soil of the forests where
| they abound The giant centipede Is
a shining mahogany brown, with the
legs blush and ringed with yellow

GOT REALISM He WANTED
Film Director Went After Substantial
Thrills, and Pictures Show He
Obtained Them.

Ned Finley. one of the vitagraph
directors. believes in realism and ale
ways makes every effort to inject
substantial thrills in his pictures,
often going TO the extreme limit or
caution. In a very recent film story
on which he was at work. he en-
gagged the services of a sharpshooter.
whose duty was to make a hit as
close to the director as he dared.
The scene or the picture shows Mr..
Finley shooting from a dismantled
barn with bullets splintering the
wood within few inches of his body.
In the same picture, Mr. Finley falls
from a horse and rolls down an en-
bankment. The first time he essayed
the fall. ii was so realistic that a
new camera man became so interest.
ed in its sensational realism he neg
lected to film the scene. A second
attempt, the next day, was spoiled
by a spectator, who, thinking Mr..
Finley was hurt, rushed in front OF
the, camera. The third time was
successful, so far as the actual TAX
ing of the scene was concerned, but
Mr.. Finley, in his headlong descent
down the embankment, failed TO no
tice tree stump and collision re
suited in very much bruised direc
tor, but a happy one, because of his
realistic ambitions being fully real
lied.

Wireless Worries.

Wireless telegraphy has done much
for US, and will probably-or rather,
surely-do a great deal more for the
benefit Of humanity at large.
But. if they could speak, many birds
would probably tell you that they don't
approve of this new invention in the
least. For in the parts OF the world
where there are a large number or
wireless stations observations have
been made which seem to indicate
that birds are disturbed in very curl
Gus way by the wireless waves.
The unoffending sea gull is one or
the chief sufferers, as also is the harm
