HORSEMAN OF BUFFALO BILL
 SHOW KILLED

PUEBLO, Colo, May 24.-He who lives by the sword must die by the sword. The old adage is as true to- day as it was in the day of the swash- buckling knight in armor. The truth of the aphorism was graphically rep resented in the death of William A. Baxter in this city yesterday. Baxter was one of the premier horsemen Of the country. His equestrianism was superb. For years he travelled with the old Buffalo Bill Wild West Show, and was one of it's star attractions Raxter's exhibition in the show con sisted of shooting glass balls with a rifle, while riding galloping horse at full speed. He was one of the few men in the world able to do thls trick. calling as it did for horseman- shin of the highest order. Yester- day a ranch hand found the dead body of Baxter a short distance from his home outside this city. An eXamlna- tion showed that death had been caused through being thrown from his horse, sustaining fracture Of the skull. When thrown he fell against a barbed wire fence, and the body was badly cut and mangled.

1T is rumored in Washington that

good of the SERVICE The discussion of
the Bureau of Engraving incident has
brought out the real spirit Of the civil
service law, so that If the President
finds 1t necessary to discharge any
more of his subordinate officials, his
authority is not likely to be seriously
questioned. In enacting the civil serv-
ice law Congress never intended to
compel President of one political
party to surround himself with offic-
als whose sympathies were with his
political opponents. Otherwise the
will of the voters would be largely de-
feated. They want not only the Presi-
dent but his whole administration to
be of the party of their choice. The
civil service law was enacted to pro-
tect the routine Office workers from
dismissal - those who have no part IN
the formulation of policies, wut who
are merely told what to do to carry
those policies into effect. They Will
receive ample protection from Presi-
dent Harding, but he will continue to
insist on putting officials in office upon
whose cooperation he can thoroughly
depend.
