St. Paul, Minn., July e.-Opposi=

resolution which was to have been
presented today to the convention of
National Education Assn advocating
the teaching of sex hygiene in
schools.
The speakers were bitter in their
criticism of parents for shifting their
duty in the instruction of children to
the teachers, and some of the speak
ers contended that the children are
already far too wise in sex matters
and need to be protected and taught
modesty rather than to be further
enlightened on this subject. 81

HOLD MRS. FLORENCE cARMAN
FOR MURDER

TSR mOhDCH
New York, July 9.-Taken from
her luxurious home and from the
bedside of her dying mother, Mrs.
Florence Carman,, wife of Dr. Car
man, is locked up in the Mineola Jail
facing Indictment and trial on the
charge of numbering Mrs. Louise
Bailey.
Mrs. Carman's fate may rest with
a jury, and, standing out in bold re-
lief as the feature of the mystery
upon which the prosecution adj
mittedly most relies in its circum-
stantial story, is the bitter jealousy
of her husband acknowledged by Mrs.
Carman.
If Mrs. Carrnan is indicted, William
TraVers Jerome, ex-district attorney
of New York, who prosecuted Harry
Thaw for the murder of Stanford
White, may be retained to defend
her.

THUNDER STORM IS DAMAGING
Fire From Lightning Destroys Two
Stacks OF Wheat

Stacks OF Wheat.
Hutchinson, July -8.-Reports are
coming in from around the country
side OF damage by lightning and wind
in the storms of the past few days.
Lightning struck two big stacks of
wheat on the farm of Otto Boak, north
OF NtckersOn. Both stacks were burn
ed, and also some wheat in the field
adjoining. A third stack was saved by
being moved.
A granary and machine shed at the
farm of A. A. Wiles, near Inman was
struck by lightning and destroyed. A
binder. mower and drill in the shed
were burned, and also sixty bales of
straw and quantity Of corn.
Two wheat stacks were struck and
burned belonging to Aaron ThieSSen,
on the H. S. Toews farm near Inman.
Several other stacks were struck in
that neighborhood, but the rain
Quenched the fire.
Lightning set fire to a wheat field
near the c. c. Heidebrecht home, east
of BUTLER. 1t started burning across
the field, but the pelting rain put the
fire out before much damage was
done.
The fruit orchard Of b. F. GigEy,
near Burton, was almost ruined by
wind. many of the trees being uproot-
ed. and the apples being blown from
the trees.
At the N. s. Beachy farm, northwest

IMPROVES HIS OLD METHODS.
Mcpherson County Man Evolves New
Harvest System.


Inman. Kan, JLy 8.-Johns Scragg,
who finished harvesting 1000 acres
OF wheat between here and McPher-
son. successfully tried out an innova-
ton in harvest work that may reform
harvest procedure in the big wheat
belt hereafter. Scragg used q header
II feet wide and made his stacks
large, each holding about 400 bushels
Of grain. This makes the job look
like big one, hut the work was
really easier than in the average har-
vest field under time-worn methods.
The hard part of harvesting is in
pitching from the barge to the stack.
Scragg's stacker was a goodwill which
raised the grain 20 feet In the air
and let 1t drop into a stack frame
made Of Stats. ropes and uprights.
Tho goodwill was operated by horse
power. BY this method two men
easily took the place Of four hard
working bargemen. An inexperienced
distributor took the place Of an ex-
pert stacker and was enabled to con-
struct the stacks five feet taller and
much more solid than by the old
method. The stacks were made short
er and much wider than heretofore,
and will be more easily threshed.

At the test run at the Bridges farm,
SIX horses took the machine around

Kopplin, manager of the bread line

most of the towns do. During the
