The Limit

Joel Chandler Harris, the author of
"Uncle Remus,' was at his desk one
night when an old-time reporter looked
over and said: "Joe, how do you spell
'graphic?' With one f. or two?"
"Well," said the kindly Uncle Remus,
who was too gentle to hurt even q
common adjective, ''if you are going to
use any, Bill, l guess you might "a
well 60 the limit"

CLEAN THE TELEPHONE.

In homes where cleanliness and
sanitation is carefully observed, one
very frequently finds fragrant om-
ission in the matter of the telephone
transmitter. Dust and dirt are al
lowed to accumulate therein, while
members of the household and others
continue to talk into it, the moisture
of the mouth congealing and encour-
aging the spread of colds, throat dis
turbances and other infections. A
bit of gauze dipped in alcohol, per-
oxide and water or any mild house
hold antiseptic used on the trans
mitter every day or two would do
much toward preserving the well be-
ing of the household.

DYCHE'S. FUNERAL
Services Held in Museum Build
ing ut X. U. To-day.
Many TOpekans Pay Last Re-
spects to Famous Naturalist.

Lawrence. Kan, Jan. 23.-On the site
where he pitched his tent when he first
entered Kansas university, an unknown
and struggling student. and where later
the state erected the great museum OF
natural history which holds many OF
his greatest contributions to Kansas,
the funeral Of Prot. L. L. Dyche is to
held this afternoon at 8 O'Clock.
According to the wishes OF Mrs.
Dyche. plans were first made to hold
the services at the residence. but when
IL was learned that a large delegation
of state officials, senators and -epresen-
tatfves, were coming from Topeka.
these plans were changed and 1t was
decided to hold the services in the mu-
scum building.
All Lawrence is in mourning today
out Of respect for the man pho probably
has done more to give her worldwide
reputation than any other individual.
and the university is showing every
mark of respect in tribute to the MEM
DRY OF its most distinguished student
and faculty member.
The funeral will be conducted by the
Rev. N. s.. Elderskin, pastor Of the Ply
mouth Congregational church, and the
remains will be inferred in Oak Hill
cemetery. The pail bearers as an
nounced this morning are: Governor
Capper, Chancellor Strong Of the Uni
vernity of Kansas, E. w. HOtch, former
governor Of the state. T. F. Doran.
Thomas Sweeney and former Congress-
man BowersOck.

Melf1l Mccormick Invites Old Parties
to Make Place for Bull Moose.

Chicago. Jan. 23.-Medill McCor-
mick, the former Illinois National
committeeman of the Progressive par
ty and member of the Illinois legis-
lature today issued statement ex-
planning his acceptance of the invita-
ton to attend the caucus of Repub-
lican legislators at Springfield and his
efforts to aid in organizing the lower
house of the Illinois general assembly.
He said:
1.-The great number Of letters which
L have received from Republicans as
well as from Progressives all over the
country, show that undue Importance
has been given to my participation In
the Republican caucus of the Illinois
house Of representatives because of
the unintentiOnal misQuOtation of my
statement to the caucus, on the part
of the correspondents who, of course
were not present.
Mr. Mccormick said he and Mr..
Hicks, an associate Progressive were
confronted with the duty of breaking
deadlock over the speakership in
the assembly. Referring to the future
of the Progressive party he said:
'It may be that in 1916 neither of
the older parties will adopt pro-
gram or put forward candidates who
can be approved by the Progressive ma
tiona1 convention. but If either of the
older parties do so, it is probable that
1t will secure the support of the ma
jority of the Progressives. Some few
of course. especially in states like Cal
ifOrnia, Colorado and Pennsylvania
will go to the Democratic party; some
few in states like New York. Indiana
and Illinois, will go to the Republican
party without reference to collective
action bv the majority"

window had been broken out Of the
quarters they formerly occupied and
that a door opening on the alley was
ajar. BY breaking the window a
latch had been opened to admit a
person and the door had then been
unlocked from the inside. The boxes
were not missed then, but no search
was made for them.
Will Not Stop Case.
1.-The disappearance of the boxes will
have no influence on the progress Of the
case" said L. 8. Harvey. There was
nothing in them needed by the prosecution
and nothing which could be of any bene-
ut to the defense, but 1t will give the
defense another excuse to ask for delay
in the case MIR. Clark has q complete
tanned. The boxes probably were stolen
at approximately the time Badders' case
was set for trial in Leavenw0rth. learn
ed last night that Badders was in Topeka
them @.s
An examination, of the room from which
the boxes were removed shows that they
were evidently tipped on end. Two boards
rested on the floor. They were SO large
they had to be turned a certain way to
get them through the doors, and too
heavy to be removed without using a
dray.
Fred Robertson, United States district
attorney, said over the long distance tele-
important.
The stock book Of the company, con-
tanning a record of the sales of stock is
gone, as are also the cash slips showing
the sales receipts at the time Badders
was taking in the money. Without these
the prosecutions case is very much weak
ened.''
Asked II there is any significance in the
fact that the postal inspectors, after hav-
ing started search in Topeka for the
missing record, had apparently given up
the search and returned to Kansas City.
Mr.. Robertson declared emphatica1ly the
search had not been abandoned.
THE inspectors were needed here at the
trial of the case. and that is why they re-
turned. No. The records have not been
found, but an effort certainly will be
made to find them or to prove who took
them.' he said.

important bill has passed either house
and but two bills have gone to the gov
ernor for his official signature. One of
these bills had to do with the changing
Of mans name. The other was to
meet the first ten days legislative ex-
penses.
Hard Work Next Week.
Next week both houses will get down
to real hard work. The senate has suffi-
Gent business on the calendar to keep
It busy most Of the time and the house
committees are loading the docket with
work for the 125 members Of that body.
Another week will see real results In
the legislature. Up to this time the
formal work Of getting the bills started
on their way through the committees
has occupied most of the session. Now
both house and senate must keep busy
II they keep pace with the committees.
The short sessions Of the senate Will
be heightened next week to full days.
The house. which never observes union
labor hours, has been working four to
eix hours a day since the session opened
Dtlt will soon begin to think about night
sessions. The final Saturday adjourn
ment in the house was taken today.
Until the close Of the session the house
WILL continue to work six days a week
and six to twelve hours a day.
Date Of final adjournment Is spec
ulative. Most of the members hope
to adjourn March 10, although the
session may drag five days longer
Introduction of all bills, except ap-
preparation bills and COMMITTEES bills,
will probably stop Saturday night,
February IS. A resolution setting
date for final Introduction Of bills may
be offered some time during the COM
ing week.
No Real Party Division.
Not once during the session has
there been a party division in either
the house or senate concerning any
bill on the calendar. This situation
may or may not mean peace and har-
mony. 1t Is true that none of the
questions concerning which party
leaders differ have been brought UT
for consideration. Maybe when the
closet skeletons are dragged onto the
floor there will be a real battle May.
be when the Republicans seek to sep.
arate few Democrats from theil
jobs by legislative enactment, thu
Democrats will arise to protest and
claim their rights. Maybe when tn,
Democratic senate tries to hand tn,
state administration more appropria

present tax levy-maybe then the Re
publicans will express themselves.
But to date. the session has beef
lifeless. colorless and uninteresting
1t makes fair promise to maintain
that record. There are few real diff
ferences to be settled at this session

cret panels and swinging stairways
were discovered when U. s. revenue
officers raided two creameries here
early this morning In search of Cleo-
margarine "moonshiners." Both stores
were in the same block about one
hundred yards apart.
At the first store raided one man,
Gus Tiefenthaller, was arrested. Tie
fenthalIer had taken refuge in a eel
lar room which was hidden by a trap
door and was removing his clothing
when the officers took him into Gus
tody. His clothing was covered with
q yellow colorfng fluid which the Of
f1cers say is used in coloring white
oleomargarine.
He denied that he was coloring the
white product, of which about two
thousand pounds were confiscated.
When the officers went into the
store they found a stairway which
proved to be fitted with hinges. A
section of the steps, built into the
wall, was lifted and disclosed a room
which was used to store colored cleo.

The second store, when entered by
officers. was deserted. In one Of the
back rooms a fire was burning land

the detectives were in the place, Al

never cOlored the white material and
had come merely to straighten out his
stock for the days business. He was
not arrested. Several pounds of the
white oleOmargarine found were taken
to be analysed. A trap door covered
with rags and oil cloth was found in
the room, but the opening was EMMY.

cash houses here agreed that rural offer

sign of any Increased Willingness to let

Hungary brought about a sharp temporary
setback in prices. Export sales were said
to be small. The close nevertheless was
