strings, then crushed Arroyo's head
with the gun butt, and turned to go.
AS Martinez reached the door he
was confronted by Victor Arroyo,
brother of the dead man, and Juan
Zuingo, a friend. Martinez grappled
with zuingo and beat him on the head
with the gun butt. Victor Arroyo was
begging his brother to speak to him.
Martinez fioored Zuingo and started
for the door. Zuingo pulled his re-
volyer and shot Martinez, killing him
instantly.
Half an hour later Deputy Sheriffs
Fox, Nolan, Reeder and Mode were
at the Gene of the fierce battle, near
the Simons brick yard. Victor Arroyo
had disappeared in the meantime, and
none of the Mexican residents was
able to give the officers valuable in
formation. The deputies later learned
through friends of the dead men that
each was desperately in love with a
black-eyed girl, daughter Of a Mexican
ranchman, living near by.
According to Deputy Sheriff Fox,
Martinez, who bunked a few feet from
the Arroyo house, heard Arroyo sing
ing his love song to his sweetheart.
Insane from jealousy and strong
drink, he quietly crept from his bunk
to the window Of Arroyo's b%unkhouse
and shot the fingers from bis right
hand. Then he rushed into the house
and battered him to death.

RIDES in NlGHTlE FOR AID
Jersey Woman, in Zero Weather, Goes
for Firemen to Save
Her Home.

R~oseland, N. J.-For the second
time within a year Austin Philhower
and his family are homeless as a re-
suit of a fire, and for the second time
Philhower rescued his two youngest
children from death. After wrapping
them in bedding, he took n in each
arm and dropped from a window on
January 6 last.
Sparks from the kitchen fire are sup
posed to have started the fire. A wom-
an driving past saw the fire and
alarmed the family. Mrs. Philhower
took the two older children and her
husband got the others.
Mrs. Phiihower, clad only in a night
gown, jumped on a horse without wait
ing for saddle and rode into the vii
lage, two miles away, although the
temperature was below zero. Finding
the rim of a locomotive wheel, she
beat a tattoo. Firemen responded, but
the house was in ruins when they got
to it.

Queens.

"There is really nothing to a girls
credit" Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser
of women says, "if she is elected as
one of the five beauties in the Jay
hawkers beauty contest. 1t simply
means that the man with whom she
goes most has a great deal of power
among his friends and fraternity
brothers, and can buy them off to
vote for his girl.
"The girl may not even be espe-
cially pretty. but that is only a trife,
If she is electioneered for hard enough,
who knows? She might get the place
above some far prettier girl.
1T is the same old question of poll
tics over again-buying votes, run
ming the political machine, and so
forth"
The 795 girls who were not elected,
therefore, should not feel badly. They
may be just as pretty, but the power
behind the throne was lacking, &C

Force of Habit.

In a recent conversation the sub
ject of the force of habit came up
for discussion, and the following story
was told:
Miss Marie was a pretty little tele-
phone girl. One night she went to
church, and, being somewhat tired,
she fell asleep during the rather pro-
tracted sermon. Finally the sermon
was concluded, and after the usual
prayer the minister picked up the
hymnal.
Brethren and sisters" he an
nounced, ~glancing first at the choir
and then at the congregation, I'VE
shall sing hymn 343. Hymn 343."

suddenly waking up and hearing the
preachers last words. I'll call you.%

Not long ago some one of the doorkeepers, well up in the advantages of
laborsaWng devices, had cards printed with instructions to guests to keep
everything, themselves included, off the railing of the gallery.
The cards have been pasted to the Gaping of the gallery railing of the
senate, and on the broad mahogany look like place cards at a banquet But
they do not entirely serve the purpose for which they were intended. Only
the other day one was intensely amused watching the patient, 1vgnant door
keepers of the senate gallery creep down the aiaes and ask people to take
their elbows 1T the cards, and read what was written thereon.
AS yet no cards have been placed around the gallery of the house. Per-
haps 1t cannot be done, because. whereas the railing of the senate gallery is
mahogany, that in the house is marble, and lis possible the cards cannot be
made to stick in the usual process of pastng.

IF HAIR is TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look Old! Try Grandmother's
Recipe to Darker and Beauty
Gray, Faded, Lifeless Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. By asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get a
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about SO cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dan
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is re
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. ADV.

He has found a veritable gold mine in
his thousand-acre Alfalfa field, and what is
of particular interest to you and me is
that his first Alfalfa Seed, twenty-five
years ago or more, was purchased from the
John A. Salzer Seed Co., La Crosse, Wis.
The Colonel says: 'The best paying crop
in hay, or grass, or pasture food is Alfalfa.

Salzer's Alfalfa is good on your own
