STATES HOOVER NOT TO
 BE CANDIDATE
HOOVER'S SUCCESSOR IN FOOD CIRCLES SAYS THAT HOOVER IS NOT A DEMOCRAT AND WOULD RUN ONLY ON THE RE PUBLICAN TICKET

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-P)-De- layed)-In a statement made to news paper correspondents here this morn ing Julius Barnes, director of the national grain corporation, which was placed in charge of the government s wheat program following the sus- pension of the food administration, declared that Herbert C. Hoover will not be democratic presidential candidate. MT Barnes apparently bases his assertion on the ground that MT Hoover is a progressive re- publican. He says that the former food controller is not now and never was a democrat.
 MT. Barnes thinks there is little possibility of MT Hoover being a candidate for the republican nomina- tion. He says that only the appear ance for a reactionary candidate on the republican ticket would bring him into the field In that case, If the republicans should adopt a pro- gressive platform, Mir. Barnes be. lieves that the Californian would ac- cept the nomination.

Filters similar to one in use at the

Miss Nicoll stated today the tests
made of the water coming thru the

lowing the return of the verdict, Think
ham Veale, assistant county attorney,
prepared a state warrant charging
Watts with murder in the first degree.
. The Anderson woman and Maggie
Lee. negress and roomer at her home
were the principal witnesses at the in
quest. Both testified that Watts in
the last week had been t'jilted'' by the
Lee woman as her lover" in favor of
Lewis Howell. another negro.
The two women testified that short
~ before the murder Watts had called
at their house and threatened to kill
some black -- before the night is
over" At that time, they testified,
Lewis Howell was in the house.
Mickey left and Howell left ten
minutes later" the Anderson woman
testified.
1t wasn't long, she testified. until
Scott knocked at the door. Scott,
she told the jury, had been a caller at
various times at her house for year.
He came into the house, she said.
Just then some one knocked 1 looked
out 1t was Mickey. He had been
drinking when he called the other
time and 1 shouted to Maggie.
He pushed the door open with the
barrel of a shotgun. I told him not
to shoot me; 1 had a baby. He told
me to get out of the road, then. I ran
out the front door. 1 met Mag yie in
the yard. She had run out the back
door.
Il heard a shot as I ran OUT

heard the Anderson woman shout,
It's Mickey" she ran.
Elisha Scott, attorney for Watts,
questioned both women closely as to
how dark it was in the house and
whether Mickey could have told
whether it was a white man in the
room or Howell, the alleged other
"Iover." The two women stated that
it would have been difficult to distin-
guish faces.
Isn't it a fact" asked Scott, that
when white men ekter such places in
the bottoms, the utmost secrecy is
maintained for fear of arrest by Off
GERS and for other reasons?"
''I don't know" the Anderson wo-
man replied.
Mickey's mother testified that her
son came to their home on East First
street and carried away a shotgun.
II knew he had been drinking she
said
There were g. number of white men
and women present Some were rela-
tives of Scott, officers stated They
did not testify, Mickey Watts sat be-
hind his attorney. He was not called
to the stand.

JUDGE REED MAKES SCOOP"
Decides Parsons Gas Case and Then
Wires His Newspaper.

Judge clyde NJ. Reed of the court
of industrial relations still retains the
newspaper instinct. He decided a gas
rate case from his home town Tues
day and then scooped the world by
sending the story exclusively to his
own paper.
Last November the Parsons Gas
company asked for an increase in
rates February 10. this year, the case
was assigned for hearing February Is.
The day after this assignment was
made. the case was postponed, the
docket showing that later date was
to be given for the hearing. No hear
ing beyond testimony taken before the
old public utilities commission last
year. was ever presented. This week,
however, Judge Reed issued an order
in the case. The order denied to the
gas company its application for in
creased rates.
According to reports received in To-
peka today the news story regarding
the court action was published eXclu-
sively in Judge Reeds own Parsons
Daily Sun. Neither Judge Higgins
nor Wark have signed the order, it is
said, altho the typewriter order car
rieS their names.

Famous Movie Star
Condemns Curling Iron

little Mary" Pickford, whose pretty
curly locks have been so much admired,
writes that she has never used the curling
iron. She fails to see the wisdom of burn
ing the life out of the hair.
That the heated iron is ruinous to the
hair is being more and more appreciated.
Many are discarding this instrument of
torture in favor of plain liquid silmerine.
This is not only harmless but is really
beneficial to the hair. Instead of giving
ones tresses a burnt-out, lifeless appear
ance, it gives them a bright lustre and
the curliness looks altogether natural 1t
Is simple thing to procure few ounces
OF liquid silmerine from the druggist and
apply little with a clean tooth brush
from root to tip-before doing up the hair
The beautiful wavy effect which results is
agreeably surprising.-Adv.s
