Samson had thought 1t rather singu-

the Lescott house, though Adrienne
spoke of him almost az of a member
of the family. However, Samson's
visits were usually in his intervals be-

probably at such times In Wall street.

Henderson Files Con-
test of Co. Election

Wednesday, September 22nd
Hans Enes of Henderson, chair.
man of the Henderson County
Seat Committee filed notice of
contest for the removal of the
County Seat to Gaylord. The
matter will in all probability be
tried at the next general term
of district court.
Briefly stated they are as fol-
lows:
First-That the petitioners
circulated false and spurious
photographs and pictures of the
county buildings, representing
them to be in a diIapidated con-
dition.
Second-That 20 illegal votes
were cast at Gaylord.
Third-That the day before
election a statement by four
members of the county board,
describing the condition of the
county jail was issued which was
not, it is claimed, signed by the
commissioners.
Fourth-That during the cam
paign a false circular entitled
Removal will save Thousands
of Dollars" and stating that the
county buildings are in need of
repair was circulated by the pc
titioners.
Fifth That the petitioners
made verbal statements to the
effect that the county jail is un-
fit for use and for that reason
it was necessary to distribute
the county's prisoners among
the jails of other counties.
Sixth-That the petitioners
made verbal statements that the
county Jail is unsafe for the
Sheriff to reside in and that ex-
sheriff Charles Wegge did not
occupy it on that account.
Seventh-That the petitioners
and their agents expended large
sums of money for the purpose
of influencing voters to vote for
removal.
The notice closes with the gen
eral claim that all these things
together influenced enough votes
to change the result Winthrop

CONGRESS FACES DEFICIT
Perhaps 1t Will Be Necessary
to Lay an Extra Tax on New
MilliOnaires

One of the first problems that
will confront Congress when it
meets in December is a probable
revenue deficit of $100,000,000,
which will stand against the
treasury at the end of the pres
ent fiscal year. The special war
taxes will soon run out and Con-
gress no doubt will renew them
with a few additions. Revenue
from imports has fallen off to
a greater degree than was anti
cipated when the war tax was
made and there is little likeli-.
hood that conditions will be bet
ter for another year at least.
In addition to the loss of i'm
port duties, sugar passes to the
free list early next year under
the provisions Of the Under
wood Simmons tariff act. This
will result in a reduction of rev.
enue to the extent of $50, OOO,-
900.
Any attempt to add to the de-
ficit to the nations debt should
be vigorously opposed. It is an
emergency loss and should be
met by emergency taxation. The
greater share of the burden

Spoons and Other
Things in Stomach
What An Operation On Woman
At Hospital in Rochester
Revealed

One of the peculiar things that
develop at the hospitals for the
insane was evidenced at the Ro-
chester hospital Thursday, when
a woman patient was operated
upon and seven tea spoons, hair
pin, long straw, some hair,
etc., were removed from her
stomach.
Nothing out of the ordinary
had been noted by the nurses
relative to this patient, until a
day or so ago a nurse saw her
surreptitiously swallow a tea
spoon. Amazed and alarmed,
she summoned those in author
ity, who rushed the patient to
the clinic where an X-ray was
taken of her, and the peculiar
contents Of her stomach re-
vealed.
She will in all probability re-
cover from the operation, but
now that her peculiar taste has
been discovered, she will not be
permitted to handle articles that
so easily slip down her esopha-
gus.

LIFE

Life is a narrow vale between
the cold and barren peaks of
two eternities. We strive in
vain to look beyond the heights.
We cry aloud, and the only an

no word; but in the night of
death, hope sees a star and lis
tening, love can hear the rustic

One result was eight strike outs for the handsome boy from Fl Paso. Las Cruces and other points in the Rio Grande valley.
 It was easy for him until the sixth. when the load of care was alleViated in great shape by a two-ba gger by Hester. After Hess had accomplished a real sporty two-base slam, it looked as though nearly anybody else ought at least to get a few home runs, but this is not ball club that hits that true to form-just now. John Mutt made merry with grounder to Pendlcton. whose title fingers slipped as he hcavcd to first. and the ball dropped ker-plunk in the wet sand just back of Mathes. Hester scored but John Mutt remained on first which was by all baseball rules the wise thing to do.

 while Pcrrine gave formal notice that the game would be finished under protest.
 With Mutt within easy scoring dis tance. only one down. and the Fl Paso bunch feeling real mean about it, Phoenix was unable to produce and two more rapid outs spoiled a chance to tie it up.
 The rest of the game was chiefly notable because Brown. pinch hitting for McCreery, with two on and one down in the seventh. took three healthy ones at Kallio's slippery curves. and Bill Bowling squared off at Kane over a decision and got es- Cortcd to the club house with the assistance of Officer McGrath. and Sonoqui batting in the ninth to try to save the contest for McCreery, famed out with Lynn on second.
 Following Dowling's dismissal. it became necessary for Hester to cast about for player. Brown was not available, for he had batted in the seventh. and had then remained out of the game. So. Hester made a first basoman of Red Toner, and went down to second, his own self.
