Worth Ths Risk.


Tit Bits: Dear Aunt Mabel had
sent the three Morgan children a very
beautiful imitation fruit each, made
OF sugar and nicely colored.
Mrs. Morgan thought they ought to
be saved; the kids thought different.
Now, you really mustn't eat them,
you know" explained mother, in q last
desperate effort. ''They look awfully
pretty, but I'm not sure that the color
ing may not be dangerous. In fact,
she went on, dropping her voice in ar
awesome whisper. Il have heard OF
children dying from eating colored
things"
She though that would do the trick
but early next morning she heard a
sound out on the landing and, goinl
to see who was astir so early, found
Elsie trotting along the passage.
Where are you going, dear?" she
asked. ''It's not o'clock yet"
"Going to see il Dick and Arthur are
dead yet" replied the S-year-old miss.
'Tm not"

TIP TROUBLE IN PRISON
Giving Gratuitcs Among Conyicfs
Causes Row in Penitentiary.

Leavenworth, Kan, Jan S1.-Even
in prison the tipping habit is caus-
ing trouble. Just now itching hands
among certain inmates of the federal
penitentiary have crawn the censure
of officials, and the New Era, official
prison organ, carries an editorial this
week condemning the practice.
Because of the many wealthy men
confined in the federal institution
more trouble is experienced there
than in most penitentiaries. The men
who are accustomed to riding in their
own limousines on the outside attempt
to carry the tipping custom within the
walls with them. and have caused
considerable complaint.
To one not acquainted with the life
inside a prison it might not be clear
just how a convict could benefit by
donating quarters and half dollars to
his fellow prisoners. These men,
however. must have their regular hair
cuts, Shines and similar personal
conveniences just the same as If at
liberty. Provision for these things is
made by the prison officials, but the
weather. of the prisoners would
rather give their barber something
extra when he is supposed to do the
work for nothing. The same is true
regarding walters, messengers, man
distributors and similar workers.

Jude Lee Monroe of Topeka and

road wanted and why aid was asked
to build the connecting link from
Garden City to Forgan, Okla.
BY closing this Homie gap
trunk line of road would be had from
Denver to the Gulf The benefit of
such a road was evident to all pres
ent, as every one in the audience arose
when the question was asked, All
who are in favor of such a road
stand
At the close of the meeting petit
lions were readily signed asking the
county commissioners to call a special
bond election to vote aid bonds in the
sum of $4,000 per mile.

STRIKE OIL BY ACCIDENT.
Well DriIlerS Make Find in Smith
COunty-Many Farms Leased.

Smith Center, Kan, Jan. 81
Oil experts are flocking 10
Atho1, the little town seven
miles west of here, where oil
was discovered a few days ago,
pronounce the find genuine, and are
trying to lease or buy land surround
ing the town at hitherto unheard of
high prices. 1t is the farthest point
west in Kansas that oil has ever been
found, the experts say, and they claim
there is an abundant supply at a COM
paratively shallow depth.
The oil was discovered in digging n
we'll on the A. c. Mead lot in the town
limits. The oil began to come in at 4
depth of twenty-five feet and already
forty gallons have been taken out,
with the seepage rapidly increasing in
volume. Mr.. Mead has refused $4,000
for the lot and other lot owners and
farmers are loath to sign a lease on
their lands. Within thirty days there
will be several well drilling outfits ut
work in the vicinity and big things are
predicted for the little burg that now
contains but $50 people.
