Only Five Were Honest
Glenwood Merchant Makes No.
vel Test on Ten-Cent Tempt
alton -Skunks Close School

There are at least five honest peo-
ule at Glenwood whu wouldn't take
ten cents given them by store clerk
by mistake in making change. The
other day GIenwood store decided to
test the honesty of the first twenty
customers entering the store. Twenty
five dimes were provided and as each
customer was given change an extra
dime was slipped in, and the results
were startling. Five pocketed the
change without counting, fifteen
boIted for the door after counting,
and the other five reminded the clerk
of the mistake. Had the above test
been tried in Morris everyone would
have returned the dime.
Because a family of skunks took up
it's abode under school building near

and the state board has condemned the
building. One of the boys has un-

NO new CASES.
But State VIII Continue Rigid Quar-
- antine.

:. According to the statement OF state
Officials this morning, conditions in
the Guaranteed area of the foot and
mouth disease remain unchanged
and practically the same. 80
Governor Capper, however, stated
that the quarantine would not be lift
ed for some tirpe, as the authorities
do. not want to take any chances.
although it has been rumOred that
new cases of the foot and mouth dis
ease have been discovered in Butler
county, state officials here say that
the rumor is unconfirmed and that in
their opinion it is grOundless.
A thorough investigation of the
origin of the disease among the south
ern Kansas herds is being made by
state and federal officials. 1t is be-
1ieved that the disease was contracted
by the cattle in the Chicago yards as
tine a. short time after the cattle pass
ed through.
Reports received today from Joe
Mercer who is still in charge of the
Kansas City and ST. Joseph yards were
to the effect that the tangle in the
two, yards has been Strengthened out.
However, very few shipments of
cattle are being permitted into the
state ~from the east and in such cases
where cattle are admitted from the
outside state officials demand COM

where commission form of govern

IN DEAN OPINION
That Fair Commissioner Paw
Back Certain Amounts.

Recommendations that II. E. Dean
of Kansas City, member of the COM
mission in charge of the KanSas ex-
hibits at the Panama-Pacific expoei-
ton, and secretary of the commission,
pay back the difference between what
he has received as salary as secretary
and that which he would have been
entitled to as q member. of the COM
stance of an opinion to be filed with
the state senate late this afternoon
when it convenes by Attorney General
Brewster. The opinion was. demand
ed by a resolution introduced by Sena-
tor Waggener, following q report that
showed Mr.. Dean was elected secre-
tary and had been drawing q salary Of
$40 a week for his services.
Under the law of 1913 creating the
commission provision is made that
members of the commission shall not
receive compensation. But provision
also is made that a secretary might
be selected and his compensation fixed
by the commission. At a meeting of
the commission at which all the MEM
bers were present it was decided that
1t would be cheaper to elect a MEM
Der of the commission to the ofIice
than to elect someone outside who
would not have the powers of a COM
missioner Under the terms of his
election MIR. Dean has paid his own
stenOgrapher and is said to have han
died upwards of 5000 letters.
AS member of the commission.
however, it is understood that the
Brewster opinion holds he is not en-
titled to the salary allowed, but
should repay the amount to the spe-
cial fund This is in spite of the
fact that an opinion to the effect
that the election was legal, is said to
have been handed down at the time
Of the election.
Those interested in the Kansas ex-
hibits fear that the present action
may block further appropriations
asked for the completion of the
building and furnishings, and may
start a fight that will leave the Kan
sas exhibit much as it now is. Furth-
er action is up to the senate.
