BUILDING NEW COURT HOUSE
Smith Center Leases Lodge Building as
Temporary Quarters.

Smith Center. Kan, Jam 25.-The
odd Fellows building on the west side
of South Main street has been leased to
the county for temporary offices for
the county officials while the new
court house is being built. Both stories
of the building will be used, the upper
one for sessions of the district court
The lower part will be divided into Of
fices and perhaps a large vault built
for the keeping of records.
The county officials will move into
their temporary home some time dur
ing the latter part of the present year.
The Odd Fellows will get $500 a month
rent There was some talk for a time
that the old frame school building
would be used, but it would have been
about as unsafe for the county officers
as it is now for pupils and teachers.

SENATE NOTES

At the late afternoon session of the
senate Wednesday the following mea-
sures were passed practically with
out opposition:
senate bill 80, by Coleman, provid-
ing for the service of summons on
jurors by United States mail.
a. Senate bill SO, by Paulen, providing
for the construction of sewers and
drains and publication plants by cities
of the second and third classes.
Senate bill 10, by Mccain, making
the warehouse laws apply to public
warehouses of cement and brick
companies.
Senate bill 1853, by Nighswonger,
creating the office of county auditor
in additional counties, and providing
for the appointment of such officer by
the district judge.
Senate bill 40, by Carroll. making
the drawing and cashing of a spurious
check under $40 a misdemeanor and
for $40 or over a felony.
Senate bill 131, by Kimbal1. relating
to reports to be made to the pubic
utilities by common carriers and pub
lie utilities
Senate bill 81. by Kimball, an act
amending the code of civil procedure
before justices.
Senate bill SO, by Doerr, a measure
requiring the payment of a county IL
cense by nonresident peddlers.
The senate Judiciary committee
killed three bills in its Wednesday aft
ernoon report by recommending that
they be not passed.
One by Terrell of Chautauqua, pro-
vioed for limitation of time upon ap-
peals to the supreme court.
One, by Coleman of johnson, pro-
/ vided for jury of six for certain civil
cases.
| One, by Coleman of Johnson, made
minor changes in the civil code.
| TO-
killed three bills, all for the reason
that the subject matter will be con-
! tanned in committee bills to be intro
duced later.
When the senate completed its work
| Wednesday there was nothing left I'M
| der the head of third reading
| Every measure ready for final passa ge
| had been passed. There were only
| eighteen bills and four resolutions IN
der the head of general orders -
| Three of the eight house bills on Sec
ond reading in the senate were lifted
| under an emergency motion and
passed. There were only fifteen orig
inal senate bills under the head of
second reading The senate calen-
dar still consists of less than four
pages
The senate itself is making hay this
session. The calendar has been kept
clean and is less than one-third the
size it was two years ago on this date
But the committees are behind with
their work. Two-thirds as many bills
| have been introduced to date as had
been introduced two years ago this
date. Few bills have been passed
hence the bulk of the bills must be tied
up IN committee. It was to give the
committees more time to work that
a resolution was adopted calling fol-
afternoon adjournment at 80 o'clock

for county commissioners who hear
pension claims, was removed under q
motion by Frank L. Martin of Reno
county. The word may was subst1-
tuted. All of which leaves the bill IN
much the condition which existed at
the close of the 1915 session.
Tax Frat Houses.
Brown of Douglas county slipped a
little amendment into a tax bill which
means trouble for college fraternities-
While the house committee OF the
whole was considering a taxation bill
by Finney of Sumner, Brown injected
the old fraternity and sorority clause.
The provision taxing fraternity houses
was not included in Finney's original
bill and slipped thru the committees
without a row. The Brown rider, tho,
is as effective as an original bill and
will call forth the attention of college
men and women from all sections of
the state.

DROVE SPIKE INTO SKULL.
NeoshO County Man Takes Unique
Method of Suicide

Erie, Kan, Jan. 25.-Unconscious
since Sunday evening, when he forced
a spike nail four inches long into his
skull, Tad Limbocker, member of a
pioneer family in Neosho county, was
still alive today, but it was not
thought there was any chance for him
to recover.
Mr.. Limbocker took one of the
most unusual methods of suicide that
ever came to the attention of the
county authorities. Holding the point
of the nail against his scalp, he stoop-
ed over and butted against a door
casing with such force that the spike
was forced into his Uranium. The
blow was so hard that the head of the
nail left an impression in the wood
of the door casing. The spike was
wedged into the bones of the skull so
tightly that it could not be extracted
by the surgeons fingers, but pliers
had to be used to pull it loose.

A New, Harmless Way
to Danish Hairy Growths

By following this suggestion any
woman can, in the privacy of her own
home, remove every trace of hair or
fuzz from her face: With powdered de-
latone and water mix enough paste to
cover the not wanted hairs; apply and
in 2 or 3 minutes rub off and wash
the skin. This method is unfailing
harmless and quick in results, but care
should be employed to get the genuine

To be possessed of a head of heavy,
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is merely
a matter of using little Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just
get a 2E-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine now-all drug stores rec
ommend it-apply a little as directed
and within ten minutes there will be
an appearance of abundance, fresh
ness, fluffiness and an Incompatible
gloss and lustre, and try as you will
you can not find a trace of dandruff
or falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use.
when you will see new hair-fine and
downy at first-but really new hair
sprouting out all over your scalp
Danderine is, we believe, the only sure
hair grower, destroyer of dandruff and
cure for itchy scalp and it never fails
to stop falling hair at once.
If you want TO prove how pretty and
soft your hair really is, moisten a cloth
with a little Danderine and carefully
draw it through your hair-ta king one
small strand at a time. Your hair will
be soft, glossy and beautiful in just
few me mCnts-a delightful surprise
awaits everyone who tries this.

QUARTETTE OF BOYS SING
THEMSELVES OUT OF COURT

A party of four white boys, from
ID to Is years of age, was arrested
by Deputy Roberts Thursday night
for stealing ride or trespassing on
northbound fast train No. 104 and
were taken before Esq Lauderdale
Richardson for trial.
They gave their names as Joseph
Sylvester, Harrell Hinckley, James
Tomater and Charley Richards and
stated that they were on their way
to New York from New Orleans.
On account of their youthfulness
and the facts chat they had commit
ted no real crime and that they were
all good singers, doing excellent quar-
tette work, they elected the sympa-
thies not only Of the trial magistrate,
but that of the attorneys for the de-
Tense and prosecution as well. A hat
was passed around, kind-hearted citi-
zens contributed money and a sufi-
cient sum was soon raised for the
payment of the costs and the boys
were released. The court and spec
tators were entertained with some
splendid vocal selections by the quar-
tette.
John Antwine, Henry Franklin and
Bessie Dowd, all colored, didn't fare
as well for trespassing on an Illinois
train as did the above named quar-
tette. The trio was given a fine of So
and costs each for committing that
offense and, being unable either to
pay or secure it, were sent to Jail.
