He MARRIED A CHILD
Proceedings Started at OIathe
to Free a TWelve-Year.
Old Bride.
NURSE APPOINTED GUARDIAN
Probate Court Places Child Wife In
Custody of Superintendent of
County Hospital.

Mrs. George Smith, the schoolgirl
bride, married by Probate Judge Rob-
erts on February 2, after the BRIDE
groom, well-to-do farmer living nine
miles west of Olathe, had made an
affidavit that she was Is years of age
and had shown the written consent
Of her foster parents, has been separ-
ated from her husband. The girl, who
is said to be but ~ years old, was
brought to Olathe by Undersheriff
Clark Hines and placed in the custody
OF A. o. Moon, superintendent of the
county hospital.
Miss Helen Miles, nurse at the
hospital, has been appointed her guar
dian, and proceedings we're brought in
the district court to annul the mar
riage. Smith and his bride came to
Olathe to attend his trial on a perjury
charge in connection with the affair.
When the girls age was declared to
be II years, the charge against Smith
was dropped and annullment proceed
ings started. When Undersheriff Hines
went for the girl, he was directed to
the school house, where he found her
busy studying her third reader lesson.
The superintendent of the county hos
pital said he intends to put her in
school in his district along with his
own little girl 10 years of age.

Saved vlc,orla's Life.

Lieut.. Col. Gordon Wilson, who was
killed at the front near Ypres recent
ly, was, when he was a boy at Eton,
instrumental in saving the life OF
Queen Victoria in March, 1882. When
a young man named Roderick Mac.
lean attempted to fire pistol at the
queen OIL the platform of Windsor sta
tion, Wilson, with his umbrella, struck
up the assailant's arm, for which act
he was summoned to Windsor castle
and personally thanked by the queen.
The boys act gave rise to clever
pun. 1t was suggested that he re.
ceive a peerage, and Basil Young. the
engineer, remarked that H. this were
done his coat-of-arms ought to be an
umbrella, with the motto: Pour la
Reine." AS a subaltern he rode in
famous midnight steeplechase at Mel.
ton. He served with distinction in
the South African war. and was an
of General Baden.Powell
throughout the siege of Mafeking,
being several times mentioned in dis
patches.

FOOD FOR STRANGER
SOUTH AFRICAN NATIVES HAVE
A HUMANE CUSTOM.
Field Is Set Aside on Which Supplies
Are Grown and Stored In Readi-
ness to Appease Hunger Of
Chance Visitor.

In South Africa, among the natives,
there is a custom which has never
been mentioned by any traveller in his
tales. In the Transkei, Basutoland and
Bechuanaland, nearly every fair-sized
village has field set aside for strang-
ers. In village where the king re-,
sides, usually his chief wife is told on
to cultivate this field and store away
all the product in the upper part of
her hut, and If in any adjacent village
some chief woman is saddled with the
work, no man of the tribe is permitted
to touch any food thus stored.
The kings wife. or whoever culti-
Yates the land, takes her share of the
product and makes her living out of
1t, but all over and above the amount
actually consumed must be set aside
and preserved. She may not trade
with any other wife of the king.
This field is known as the "Strang-
ers' Field" Whenever a stranger
comes to the village he makes known
his wants to the king and he is Inn
mediately relieved The best hut in
the village is set apart for him, he
eats the food Of the strangers field,
and the wife Of the king prepares the
food for him with her own hand. He
remains a week, or a month, or any
reasonable length Of time, and his de-
parture is never hastened. Sometimes
he stays long enough to become q
members Of the tribe.
An amusing feature OF this custom
is the fact that INDECENT members Of
the tribe occasionally leave the village
and go to other villages and become
strangers, so that very often when a
familiar face has been missed from a
certain village and anyone asks where
So-and-So went or what became OF
him, the inquirer has been gravely in
formed that So-and.So was poor and
became a stranger Some lazy men
go around from village to village, and
when they return to their original kraal
they spin the yarn that they have
been working in the mines! Then
again one often can run across So-and-
So in distant village living on the
fat Of the land as a stranger and be-
ing treated to royal hospitality.
There are no beggers in Africa.
When a man becomes too poor to get
along comfortably he makes circuit
of the adjacent villages as a stranger.

With the idea of developing in Kan

crocodIies Live Lonu.

Crocodiles are very interesting be.
cause they are survivals Of an ancient
and vanished epoch They resemble
closely some Of the saurians that
walked on the earth and swan in the
ocean during that age of reptiles
which, according to the geologists,
came to an end many millions of years
ago. 1t is probable that these crea.
lures live longer than any other ami

MORE SICK KANSAS CATTLE
Foot and Mouth Disease Found Among
Big Herd of Calves Near
Eldorado.

e. R. Smith, bureau of animal indus
try at Washington, and DR.. Ritter Won
Malicki, state veterinarian, found the
foot and mouth disease in herd OF
619 calves on a farm twelve miles
northeast of Eldorado recently The
calves were shipped in from New Mex
leo last December.
A quarantine for six miles each way
has been established.
Two federal veterinarians, who had
been inspecting stock in Butler coun
ty for traces of the foot and mouth dis.
ease, became suspicious that the
calves were infected, and took some OF
the virus. They established a quar-.
antine then. Examination of the virus
bore out their suspicious, and Drs.
Smith and Won Malicki were called
and substantiated what the others had
suspected.
The owner of the calves has 1000
other cattle in the neighborhood, the
affected farm being in the heart of the
cattle feeding region.
The affected herds, it was said, will
be destroyed within five days.

bribed by Jack to plead illness, and
Jack took his place at the wheel. Jack
also at times bribed his sisters when
the time came for the afternoon ride
to do something else, thus giving him
an opportunity to make love to the
governess.
It was not to be expected that this
twofold deception could be kept up in
definitely, though Miss Auchincloss
had better chance at the problem
than Mr.. Larrabee, she being some dis
lance from home. Jack by inceSsant
watchfulness kept the ball a-rolling for
a month, though he met with a num-
Der of narrow escapes. He was dis
appointed, however, in not being able
to break down the barrier that sepa-
rated him from one who was supposed
to be of higher station. Miss Auch-
incloss, though evidently kindly dis
posed toward him, required him at all
times to keep his distance.
One day when Jack was driving the
governess in a runabout they met two
Of his friends, Ned Morgan and Char
lie Phelps. A chauffeur's apparel is
not necessarily much different from
that of an ordinary person, and the
young men thought little of seeing
Jack at the wheel.
Hold on, Jack!" cried one Of them,
II wish to speak to you.'
Jack put on more speed. His friends,
one Of whom had recognized the socie-
ty belle, Miss Auchincloss, turned and
followed. Seeing an opportunity by
taking a different road to meet the
couple again, they turned and by some
| rapid driving succeeded in their de-
sign. On meeting again they signal
| ed Jack to stop and enforced his doing
so by occupying his side of the road
Phelps greeted the governess with
hearty "Good morning, Miss Auchin-
closs!' while Morgan apologized to
Jack for stopping him on the ground
| that he had a message for him.
Jack looked at Miss Auchincloss, and
Miss Auchincloss looked at Jack, but
neither said anything till they had got
rid Of the two men. Then Jack said:
MY secret is OUT
"1t's been out for some time"
"What! You have known who I
am?'
ever since l came to the house.
You may have forgotten that danced
in the same figure with you at Mrs
| Perkins cotillion.''
II recognized you, but fancied that
you didn't remember me-
"Well,' rejoined Miss Auchincloss,
my playing governess and your play
ing gardener are finished. l think we
had better return to our own Selves"
Il am Of your opinion. There is too
much work for the wages
But Jack prevailed upon her to defer
her going for awhile longer, which
gave him further opportunity to do his
counting, and when she left they We're
engaged.
