ENGINEERS WANTED.
Kansas Concerns Ask X. S. A. @. for
Trained Men.

Manhattan. Kan, Sept. 2.-There is
a fine opportunity here in Kansas for
good agricultural engineers. Letters
asking to be put into touch with men
capable OF doing this sort of work are
continually coming to A. A. Porter.
dean OF the engineering division at
the Kansas State Agricultural college,
who has organized a course in agri-
cultural engineering to be offered for
the first time to the young men OF
Kansas this fall.
The wages paid for this type Of en-
cheering work are good. A letter re-
ceived by Dean Potter last week from
a thresher con. pany in Kansas offers
from $40 to $50 week for a man
capable of designing and building har-
vesting machinery. On the same mail
came a letter from tractor company
of Kansas offering, to start q man at
500 month. A young man who is
familiar with farm work and farm
needs. and who enjoys working with
machinery. can prepare himself for a
profitable profession, by taking adj
vantage of the training offered in this
course, Dean Potter believes.

Tulsa Doctor Tells
Of Fight on Plague
TWO MILLION DOLLARS BEING
INPENDED BY NEW ORLEANS
PEOPLE.

\ Tulsa physician. who recently re-
turned from the region of tho bubOnic
lague in New Orleans and vicinity,
tells of tho greatest precautionary
measures of city, state and nation TO
stop the spread of the disease. He
says that az least S2,000,000 viii be
expended In this effort.
In New Orleans the infected por-
tion has been walled In by rat t-proof
fences and all refuse from streets,
cellars and waste places removed So
that rats cannot live. Thousands Of
traps are set to catch them. II Is
known that the rat causes the diseases
ana II Is only a matter of time before
it will I've cradicated, although the cN-
pCnse viii be enormous.
There are now about forty cases In
the city Of New Orleans. The plague,
which is the same thing which raw
f. he'd Europe under the name of tha
lack plague. is very often fatal, the
mortality from the disease being very
high.
The state board Of health has
passed an order permitting city and
county ohcers to pay cents a head
for rats caught dead or alive. The
physician mentioned said that he had
seen lads bringing down as many as
40 rats at a time.

Other LEADERS WON

Before Beating His OPP
pOnent.

MANCHESTER, Sept. 1.-The first
of the fayorites for the national golf
amateur golf title was eliminated in
the first round of match play on the
Ekwanok links today when Charles
Evans, Jr., of Edgewater, national
champion in 1911, and prominent
figure i'm the recent open champion
ship tournaments, was eliminated by
Eben NJ Byers, Of the Allegheny
Country club, Pittsburgh, national
champion in 1906 and runner-up In
1902 and 1903 by a score Of one up.
Byers won largely through his abil-
ity to play his approach shots dead.
Al the turn he was in the lead two up,
but Evans pulled up even on the
twelfth, when Byers missed a short
putt. once more the Pittsburgh man
went into the lead when he took n
three at the fifteenth hole against four
for Evans. At the seventeenth hole
Ryers got into difficulty and the fig
urcs were only apprOXimated when
he picked up his bail, Conceding the
hole to Evans Byers topped his
drive ana went into the ditch. In try
ing to cXtricate himself he succeeded
olly in entangling himself still fur
thcr and after siN strokes he conceded
the hole to Evans, who was In posi-
uon to make it I'm five
The match was settled on the eiGh-
tecnth hole, where Evans also topped
his drive and failed to reach the fair
way. His attempt to play short OF
the ditch with his iron failed and al
though he made a pretty playout,
Byers took the hole and the match.

FRANK SEES REPORTERS
CONDEMNED MAN, IN TALK TO
NEWSPAPER MEN, is HOPEFUL.
Saws Whoever Wrote Notes Murder
ed Mary Phagan. Appealed to
Hearers For Confederation.

ATLANTA.-For the first time
since his arrest ten months ago j..
M. Frank, under death sentence for
the murder of Mary Phagan, was
permitted by his counsel this after
noon to talk to newspaper men. He
optimistically discussed his plight
going over various points of the evil
dence on which he was convicted, and
predicting that the sentence pro-
nounced against him would never be
executed.
whoever wrote the notes found
beside the body of Mary Phagan was
Mary Phagan's murderer" he de-
clared, referring to several penc1led
scraps of paper discovered near the
dead body of the little factory girl.
James Conley, the negro convicted
on an accessory charge, testified at
Franks trial that he had written the
notes and placed them beside the
body after Frank had committed the
murder. The notes accused a negro
employed in the building where Mary
Phagan was killed.
Frank betrayed remarkable famil-
iarity with the details of evidence
and law involved in his conviction
and. subsequent efforts to secure a
new trial. Pressing his hands against
the bars of his cell and shifting his
body nervously he repeatedly appeal
ed to his hearers for confederation
oil his statements.
Don't you see it that way" ne
asked frequently, don't you?'
Just before the interview was con-
Guided Frank read to his callers the
poem, God Give Us Men, by Oliver
Wendell Holmes. ut fits SO well with
the thought now in my mind, ;" he
said, but would not explain farther

LESS DYSPEPSIA NOW
HERES THE REASON

The fact that there is less dyspep-
STA and indigestion in this community
than there used to be is largely, we
believe, due to the extensive use OF
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, hundreds
of packages of which we have sold.
No wonder we have faith in them.
No wonder we are willing to offer
them to you for trial entirely at our
risk.
Among other things they contain
Pepsin and Bismuth, two of the
greatest digestive aids known to med
ical science. They soothe the int1am-
ed stomach, allay pain, check heart
burn and distress, help to digest the
food, and tend to quickly restore the
stomach to its natural, comfortable,
healthy state.
There is no red tape about our
guarantee. 1t means just what it
SAYS. Well ask you no questions.
Your word is enough for us. If Rex
all Dyspepsia Tablets don't restore
YOUR stomach to health and make
your digestion easy and comfortable
we want you to come back f0r your
money. They are sold only at the
1000 Rexall Stores, and in this town
only by us. Three sizes, 25c, soc and

mum DESCRIPTION OF EARTHQUAKE

go off. Now know god deal more
OF that than I ever wished to learn.
Severe Earthquakes Felt.
The next warning came Sunday,
January II, in the form of severe
earthquakes, accompanied by reso-
.nant, deep cannonading from the
nights of Sakurajima. With increas-
ing violence came shock after shock.
Houses toppled, brick walls crum-
bled, and from far beneath, SEEM
ingly as from some vast cave of ech-
oes, rose a horrifyiag sound of grind
ing and roaring up through the quak-
ing crust of the earth.
by Monday morning the midnight
glow that had spread like a scarlet
canopy over the vent of the volcano
changed to an immeasurably lofty
column of twisting smoke, laced
with flames and shot with the trail
of fiery missiles.
Dawn changed to twilight. A great
shower of ashes ranged on the panic
stricken population. The ashes be-
came flaming cinders and the cinders
flaming rocks. Sparkling lava, gush-
ing from the mouths of the several
craters, leaped down from cliff to
cliff and ledge. Volcanoes long sup
posed extinct in other portions of the
realm leaped in sympathetic action
and ashes fell like snow as far north
as the cities of Osaka and Kobe, as
far south as the BONN islands, and as
far west as Dairen, while the air was
weighted with sulphurous fumes, and
distant Toxic itself was mantled in a
sinister, yellow cloud.
Forests Catch Fire.
"By this time the cascade of lava
and the ceaseless, merciless rain OF
meteors had set fire to the sugar cane
and bamboo forests. Houses burst
into fire as from spontaneous combus-
ton at every step.
