There's mystic song in the wait

An anthems sweep tho prairie thrills,
And the leafless trees In the wild

With breath Of peace from the crys-

The notes ring clear to the spirits

Bringing message of peace to thee:

Process of Elimination Used in
Sweet Murder Trial.
Court Will Hold Night Sessions
to Speed Case.

Syracuse Kan, May 3O.-Efforts of
the attorneys for the state in the trial
of Archie Sweet, alleged murderer of
Miss Nellie Byers, the Grant county
school teacher, were to show that only
Sweet could have been implicated in
over to testimony intended to show
that Clint Henson, near whose home
the girls body was found and others
who have been mentioned in the case
were near the scene of the crime at the
time it was supposed to have been
committed. Henson occupied part of
the day and was followed by Earl
Blake. Fred Edison and lobe Brewer
Each article of the girls clothing,
found under a clump of soapwood, a
few hundred feet from her body, was
exhibited to the jury for inspection.
to show that it had been ripped from
the body with damage to the button
holes and hooks and was not removed
with care.
Permit Any Testimony.
That was to refute the claim of the
defense it was understood that the
clothing was not taken from the body
until after it was dark, when the muir
derer returned and took it off in an
effort to conceal his crime, being pre-
vented from destroying it by the early
discovery of the body.
All bars to the admission of testi-
mony have been removed and wit
nesseS are allowed to testify to what
they have heard regarding the case
and what their opinion upon it are.
There have been but two objections
to questions in the last two days of the
trial and much of the testimony now
being offered is in rebuttal. although
the state has introduced only about a
dozen of its fifty witnesses Court
was adjourned an hour to permit at
torneys for the state to interview their
witnesses in an attempt to decide
which will be placed on the stand be-
fore the defense begins the introduce

All of Equal Rank.


The other day when 1 spoke on
universal service in Detroit, a woman
in the gallery called out: Il have two
sons and they shall both go if the
country needs them" l answered her,
Madam, 1 take off my hat to you.
That is the spirit this country needs
and if all the mothers of the country
will do as you do and raise their boys
so that they shall be able and ready
at need to fight for the country, there
will never be any need for any of
them to fight for the country. No ma
ton will ever attack a unified and
prepared America"
And to you men of the Grand Army
and you, Confederate veterans, I need
not say that this was in effect what
was done in our Civil war. OF course,
the men who had been trained at West
Point had an initial advantage: but
every one went into the ranks on even
terms and men from the ranks rose to
the highest positions on their merits.
Let me illustrate this by an incident
out of my own experience. 1 was
colonel of a volunteer regiment at
Santiago in the Spanish war. 1 served
under the then Brigadier General Sam
Young, and 1 served beside the then
Brigadier General Adna Chaffee.
Later. as president. it was my good
fortune to give, first to Sam Young,
appointment of lieutenant general of
the United States. the highest office in
