STATE CHAMPION NOT IN IT
munity Was the Man Who Re fused to Play the Game.

We had a chance to demonstrate the Topeka Capital. It worked like potato in rheumatic's pocket Through the influence of the missus, who has friends, We obtained a card to a very select country club in an eastern state, where we stayed ten days. The club had golfitis in it's most acute form. The men and wom- en who frequented the club played golf, talked golf, ate golf and slept it. It was the home of the state champion and the game was the one important topic of conversation.
 For day or two we were lost in the atmosphere of golf which befog- ged the place. Then we began to at tract a little attention by indicating in delicate and polite way that the whole thing bored us to extinction. When we respectfully declined to en- gage in the game or borrow any of the implements connected with the sport there was great surprise. Our assertion that we did not play the game and did not wish to was receiv- ed with amazement. Up to the time of our advent the state champion had been the colossal figure of the club.
 At the end of three days we had the state champion hanging on to the ropes. At the end of week his ex- istence had been forgotten. As a curiosity he had been crowded out of place by the eccentric" Kansan who sat around reading the reports of the worlds championship games, deaf to golf and all of its manifestations. It isn't always the hand that Is dealt you. It Is the way you play it.

La 0rande Passion.

"Une grande passion est une grande fo'ie. Mediocrity in all things is wisdo1 ; mediocrity in sensations is superlative wisdom. No young lady should fall in love till the offer has been made. accepted, the marriage ceremony performed, and the first half year of married life has passed away. A woman may then begin to love, but with very great precaution-very cool ly, very moderately. very rationally. If ever she loves so much that : harsh word or a cool look cuts her to the heart she is fool. If she ever loves 8. auch that her husbands will Is her law, and that she has got into the habit of watching his look in or. der. that she may anticipate his wishes. she will soon be a neglected foo" Charlotte Byonte.

ACCORDED A HIGH POSITION
Women of servia, We'll Educated and Able, Are Companions of Their
 Husbands and Brothers.

There is no country in the world where women occupy more dignified position in the home than Servia. The Servian idea is quite different from that of the Turk, who keeps his wom- en behind shut doors or the German. whose ideal woman is hausfrau. In Servia the woman is the companion of the man.
 A man is responsible for his un- married sisters, and throughout the Balkan states 1t is considered rather 2 breach of etiquette for him 10 mar " before his older sister.
 No Servian gil would feel she could hold up her head in society unless she could speak four languages. There is hardly 8 Servian woman who can not play some musical instrument Embroidery, painting. drawing. and sculpture are all studied. Politics ii . popular feature among women.
 Servian women are very domesticat' ed and the highest ladies pay personal attention to trivial matters of house keeping.
 There are two women doctors prac' ucing in Belgrade. and several woni' on teachers. But public opinion. on the whole, is rather against women entering the labor arena.

Seed For The Farmer.

furnish free one pound of alfalfa seed to the farmers who would use the seed for experimental purposes, prepare the land and plant the seed according to in- structions. The responses have been numerous.
 More recently 1 announced that l would distribute some prize winning seed corn. l have re- ceived hundreds of requests for the seed and they are still com ing in. announced that through Senator Clarke l had obtained 1000 packages of government cotton seed for distribution. 1 received 1000 requests in three days. Several hundred other requests have come since the seed were exhausted, but Sena- tor Clarke is making an effort to get the Department at Wash ingtOn to send out the sample packages to all whose requests come too late to be supplied out of the 1000 packages that were available. Several hundred names are being sent to Wash ington this week with a re- quest to send out the seed. l shall urge the Secretary of Agri- culture to send the seed. So will Senator Clarke. We hope to get them. If you have written and fail to get your package of cot ton seed, do not be disappointed. 1t is just because your request came too late.
 These requests for sample packages of good seed bring us a lesson. It proves that the farm CTS are interested in good seed and good farming, and it argues that the Commissioner of Agri- culture could render mighty good service to the farmers by obtaining good seed for free dis tribution in small packages. 1 hope you will ask the candidates for the legislature to make an appropriation to enable me to do this next year. The law au- thorizes it, but the legislature made no appropriation for such purpose.
 The seed produced at the eX- perimental station at Fayette- vile should be required to be put up in small packages and dis tributed to the farmers of the state. The work is carried on by public funds, and the legislature could we'll afford to have it dis tributed among the farmers to give them a start of good seed, instead of being used or dispos- ed of otherwise. I hope the next legislature will require the corn, cotton, and grass seeds suitable for planting that is produced at the university at Fayetteville, to be distributed free in limited quantities to the farmers. It would be the surest way of doing the greatest good for the least money.
 In giving instructions to the farmers how to prepare their land for the one-pound sample of alfalfa seed, I suggested the use of ground limestone. 1 am glad to announce that l have made arrangements to have 200 pounds furnished free to each farmer who agrees to make the experiment. am now negotiat- ing with the railroads to get the freight free and hope to do SO. 1 I will also endeavor to furnish inoculated soil to go with the al- falfa seel.
 If the distribution of this al- falfa seed would result in only ten acres increase in each cOun- l tv if would he worth from thirty

Neither Naon nor any .of those with whom he conferred would say whether any new plan had been devised to break the seem ingly final deadlock at Niagara Falls between the American and Mexican delegates
 However, it was made known there has been no change in the position of the United States government, as set forth in the declaration of yesterday by the American delegates that only Ia constitutionalist will be accepted to head the proposed provisional govern ment in Mexico City.
 After the conference with the presi- dent and Bryan, NaOn stated there was still encouragement for media tion and Bryan reiterated his declara- tion that mediation is progressing sat isfactorily There was no official word from the president.
 When Naon left after his first con- ference with Bryan he was asked if there were still hopes for mediation.

 The following paragraph from the American memorandum of the Ame'- ican delegates sums up the position by which Justice Lamar and F'reder- ick w. Lehman had been instructed to stand without yielding an inch.
 ''The United States became a party to the mediation in the hope that it might lead to peace and that that reace would lead to prosperity. The plan which the American represen- tatives propose, and on which we must insist, will be formulated sole |. ly with that end in view
 Another paragraph which is the American governments practical re- jection of the mediators' plan is the following:
 American objections to the plan approved by the Mexican representa- tives have been based on the pro- found conviction that the adoption of that plan would not stop the prog ress of the victorious army, nor bring that speedy peace which the American government so sincerely desires '

EAGLE PASS, June 19.-The nam- ing of the constitutionalist cabinet by CarranZa is eagerly awaited by the constitutionalists as a possible means of healing the breach between Car ranza and Villa, according to arrivals here who left Saltillo and Monterey yesterday There is a general impress sion at those points, according to the travellers, that Carranza would name his official family within two or three days. Should the men named be sat isfactory to the Villa faction, those conversant with the situation hoped the differences between the two leaders might be made things of the past.
 The name of General Felipe Angeles has been mentioned for cabinet post
 A hurried call, it was said, had been sent out from Carranza's headquarters for representative men, thoroughly conversant with the undercurrents of constitutionalist politics, to come to SaltillO to confer concerning cabinet choices.
 It is well known, according to Dor der arrivals, that considerable Oppo- sition has risen on the part of Villa and his friends to certain men close to Carranza. One of these, it is reported is Fernando Iglesias Calderon. This opposition, it is declared, may tend to upset the forecast already made con- corning the personnel of the cabinet
 That General Felipe Angeles will be a member of the cabinet. if he will ac- cept, seems certain. according to re- ports. General Angeles is said to have the complete confidence and friendship of Villa, is a graduate of Chapultepec military academy and has reputation as a diplomat and soldier.
