The program tonight is to be an eX-
CeptiOnally fine one, and the band will
appear in the uniforms that they will
wear on their trip. The Mobiles of the
Mystic Shrine will officiate as ushers.
The impression that the band mem
bers are to receive a handsome price
for their services on the trip, and that
the money being raised is to increase
the allowance, is erroneous. Secretary
Marshall says that the men are MAX
ing some sacrifices to go, and that
their loyalty and public spirit enters
into the trip more than what they will
realize in expense money. NO fancy
prices are expected" scid he; I'VE
want Kansas and Topeka represented
in Seattle with the best band there and

one of the popular young merchants

With Hairs OF the Moth Causes
Poisonous Rash TO Break Out on
Human Beings.
One of the most serious effects of
the presence of the brOwn-tall moth
in a community is that of the pecu
liar skin disease it may produce. Some
of the hairs of the full grown cater
pillar are furnished with minute
barbs. When the caterpillars molt
these barbed hairs are shed with the
skin and as the skins become dry and
are blown about by the wind the hairs
may be quite generally disseminated.
When the hairs alight upon the hu
man skin they cause an irritation,
which upon rubbing may develop in
to inflammation. Writing on this sub
ject DR.. w. A. Evans says:
The poisoning effect from the
brown tailed moth results from chem
ical substances contained in the shaft
Of the long barbed hairs carried on
the abdomen and back. These hairs
can be carried by the wind and can
produce the rash in people who have
pillar.
The ordinary effect is rash similar
to hives, known as the brown tail
rash. The usual site of the rash is
the skin of the exposed portions of
the body-the neck, face, and hands.
The hairs may get into the nose

JITNEY DANCE HALL
LATEST TANGO FAD
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ga, May And now TO"
the jitney dance! Atlanta along with
other American cities mas been intro
duced to the jitney theater, the litney
automobile, the jitney :lncneon, but
the jitney dance idea is new.
For the benefit of those who do not
possess a mental glossary of slang, a
iitney is five cents. Hence a jitaeY
dance is a dance to which five cents
admission is charged, not for each fox
trot and hesitation, but for the entire
evening. If permission of council can
be obtained a plan is under way for
the opening of a jitney dance hall. On
ly by making it very large, like a big
skating rink could such financially
hazardous undertaking be attempted,
but the plan contemplates the serving
of iitney refreshments on the side,
that is ice cream or lemonade or soft
drinks, for five cents.

Hog cholera is said to be prevalen;
in some localities in Sumter county
and farmers are not little concerned
at the appearance of the scourge. One
farmer living east of Americas has
lost twenty fine hogs recently from
cholera. Many are preparing to inoc-
ulate their porkers with cholera serum
to the end of checking the progress OF
he disease. Hog raising in Sumter
is commanding great attention now,
and every precaution should be taken
to stamp out the deadly cholera.

ATLANTA, Ca, May 5.--A man who
marries one wife in Georgia and an
other in Florida can't be tried for big
amy in Georgia, according to decis-
ion just handed down by the supreme
court in the case of j. B. Braeber. He
pleaded guilty to the bigamy charge in
Georgia and was sentenced by the
superior court, but then got out a ha-
beas corpus which has been sustained.
Apparently under this decision "a man
must not merely be married to two
wives, but must have married the Sec
ond one in Georgia before he can be
tried in Georgia on bigamy charge.
