TO KIS MURDER THREE NE-
GROES ARE UNDER ARREST
REDDUS WAS WEALTHY.
Muskogee Okla. June 2. A worn
- ans' voice lured William Reddus i
wealthy negro of Tullahassee upon
the mission that led to his death
last Sunday morning is the theory
that Bay's Detective agency has been
forking upon ever Bince it was learn
ed that a woman called Reddus the
night before his body was struck by
a train on the Missouri Oklahoma &
Oulf railroad at West Okmulgee ave
nue. The clew was the beginnin
of an Investigation that resulted In
the arrest early this morning of
Mrs. Lonaz Mackey the woman who
is said to haive called Reddus and
of "Old man" Joseph Smith and Paul
Michael two companions.
The trio were arrested at the home
of the Mackey woman just off the
end of the Alta Vista car line by
Robert H. Selby a deputy sheriff
and V. R. Rays J. F. Bays and J
M. McCormack of the Bays' Detect
ive ngency. The detectives had been
watching the woman's home for th
last three nights and made the ar
rest this morning believing that
the woman was preparing to leave
the city. The three negroes offered
no resistance to the officers who
took them by surprise. They refused
to make any statements concerning
the charge upon which they were ar-
rested. Reddus who is said to have been
worth nearly a quarter of a million
was a prominent merchant in Tulla-
hassee. His body was crushed by a
train last Sunday morning. A coro-
ner's jury at an Inquest Monday de-
cided that Reddus had been killed
and his body placed on the railroad
track after the murder.
Two negroes G. S. Parker and
Joe Meyers arrested last week for
Investigation were released yester-
day on motion of the county attor-

200 years Is caused by Infected wat

Tho scourge lias long been it

that in the districts of Italy where
the disease is most prevalent tho

The professors declare that the

proceed with a thorough examina

The professors have found that
the Infected water way easily be
made safe for drinking purposes by

Several improved methods of work
are contemplated by the Northern
Pacific.
The Rock Island system is calling
particular attention of its employes
to the importance of courtesy as a
method of Improving business.
Railway managers all over the
country are protesting against the
full crew laws which are being
adopted by various states. Thy
claim the roads will be handicapped
in other ways by this added ex-
pense. It is Interesting to note the re-
markable pressure which Is brought
to bear upon the "safety first" plan
of tho different railroads through-
cut the country. In the last number
of the Maize which Is the official
publication of the Chicago Grea
Western railroad many articles are
based upon this movement. The folly
of ever taking a chance Is strongly
brought out and employes are cau
tioned time and again along this line.
Much interest Is being manifested
in Pittsburg railroad circles in the
progress of the work on the Altoonn
Northern now under construction
from a point just outside Altoona
where it connects with the Pennsyl
vania to a connection with the Nev
York Central in the northern part
of the state and which when com
pleted will traverse and open up vast
coal fields the deposits of which ar.i
estimated to aggregate 475000000
tons.
The Pennsylvania railroad an
nounces the retirement on pension
of Fred Volkert of Grand Rapids
Michigan who has been railroading
for Cti years volkert ran the first
varnished passenger cars into Grand
Rapids- the event yet being men-
ioned as important in railway his
tory in tho Michigan city.
Business interests in Chicago aro
osiug millions of dollars annually
is a result or the reiusal of rail
roads to grant stop-over privileges
according to charges that have been
made by the public service commit
tee of the Chicago real estate board.
Persons who pass through Chicago
on their way to other cities it is as-
serted are compelled to take the
next train for their destination as
soon as possible. Failure to do so
will result In the refusal by the
railroad companies to honor their
tickets. It is expected that both
the Central and Western Passenger
Associations will be asked within a
short time to so extend the time limit
that every passenger will be enabled
to spend at least several davs in
Chicago.

MEMORABLE EVENING
By SARAH O'PULLIVAN.
"Isn't dinner nearly ready mother?"
asked I.efter walking Impatiently up
and down the room. "It's getting late
and I have a pressing engagement to-
night." "In Just a few minutes" nnswered
Mrs. Randall. "Rut do you know I
was thinking today that you r.re al-
ways having 'pressing engagements.'
It Is a rare occasion for you to pass
an evening at home with the family."
"By George I believe you're right
mother" returned her son. "It never
struck me before how much I have
been gadding about. But I'll stay at
home seme evening very soon. Sure
I will."
"You'd better set the memorable
evening now" put In his sister Mar-
jory. "If you don't you are liable to
forget your resolution."
"That's a go. Let me see I have a
very Important engagement for to-
morrow and one also for Wednesday
evening. Thursday Is George's stag
party. For Friday I have opera tick-
ets. Saturday well no fellow stays
at home Saturday evening. Sunday
you always have a million of the rela-
tions over so there's nothing doing
for that night. How's Monday? Mon-
day suits me.
"Now" proclaimed Lester "you all
hear that ono week from tonight I
shall be delighted to pass an evening
in the bosom of my family. I shall
consider it an engagement of para-
mount Importance. I shall anticipate
that evening's pleasure with the great-
est possible eagerness. How shall I
pass the weary hours until that en-
trancing moment?"
"IH wager you dollars to doughnuts
that you'll forget all about it before
next Mcnday" declared Marjory.
"Forget? Indeed not! How you
wrong me! If I do not remember I'll
present each of you with a half dozen
pairs of the finest kid gloves. Forget?
I should say not!" Lester glowed with
indignation.
The following Monday Marjory
made a batch of fudge for Lester's
evening at home. Mrs. Randall baked
his favorite molasses cookies and put
the home-made grape Juice on ice. His
smoking Jacket and slippers which
had been out of service for a consider-
able time she placed within easy
reach.
The evening came Lester sitting
down to the dinner table. exclaimed
"It's downright annoying! Here I
know I have some engagement for to-
night and yet for the life of me I can't
think .what it is. It has been worry-
ing me all day. Such a thing has nev
er happened to me before. Provok-
ing!" Mrs. Randall and her daughter ex
changed glances but said nothing.
"Can't you people help me out?"
asked the worried young man.
Both maintained a discreet silence.
"Well I'll get shaved and dressed
and by that time I may remember"
he said hopefully.
In a little while Lester re-entered
the library saying: "I'm going to the
club. Maybe some of the fellows over
there can put me next. If any ono
phones tell him to call me up at the
club."
An hour later Marjory phoned to
her brother saying sweetly: "Have
you thought of your engagement yet?"
"No I haven't" he answered cross-
ly. "Well how about the evening' you
were anticipating with such eager-
ness? That evening you said you
would be delighted to pass in the
bosom of your family?"
The telephone receiver was hung
up with a bang.
A few minutes later Lester crept up
to his room and put on his smoking
Jacket and slippers. He entered the
library threw himself on the couch
and asked in a sheepish way: "Well
what size gloves do you wear?"

KILL OR CURE GAME
By F. S. JENSEN.
"How are you. old sport" said Jep-
son to Simcoe who supported by a
crutch and a cane camn slowly down
the sunlit street. Simcoe was swath-
ed until lie resembled a mummy; he
moved with extreme care. When he
pcro ived .U'psiin he smiled wanly.
"I don't feel very well" he returned
wearily. "I don't seem to get much
better somehow."
"What are you doing for It?" in-
quired .lepsnn. "That has a lot to do
with how you feel you know. Now
I've K)t a second cousin whose wife's
mother knows a man who was down
flat (in his bark with something or
other :i nd he took let's see I ntn not
sure that I know Just what it was
but. anyway it was some Bort of medi-
cine that you rub on and take Inter-
nally too; 1 don't doubt but that any
druggist ran tell you the name of It
If you tell him what it's for. You get
some and try it and maybe It will
cure you us quick as it did that fel-
low." Simcoe held up his thin hands. "No
use" lie said. "If it's known to medi-
cal si'ii-nee I've already tried It. I've
changed medicines once in every
three or four days for a year or bo; I
try a new preparation evory time I
turn around. 1 think I get worse all
the time."
"Why don't you hunt up a new doc-
tor?'' queried Jepson with a sudden
Inspiration.
"Honors!" snorted Simcoe for the
moment aroused from his lethargy.
"Doctors! I've had more doctors than
there are men In tho Mexican army.
I've had doctors that give medicine
in large doses and doctors that give
medicine in small doses; I've had doc-
tors that rub and maltreat their pa-
tients until most of them either die
or got well in self defense I've had
doctors that give various sorts of
treatment and some that don't seera
to give any at all. I've had 'em old
and young male and female white
red black and tan and yellow all
sorts and condltoins of doctors but
none of them Is able to make me feel
as I ought to feel."
"F.ver try the baths?" ventured Jep-
son. '"All of them." said Simcoe. "Sul-
phur salt mud steam hot and cold
water hops I've been the whole
route. And every new kind of bath
does me up worse than the one before.
I must be In awful shape and I don't
know for the life of me what I'm to do
with myself now."
"I'll tell you old man" conseled
Jepson after deliberation "if I were
In your shoes 1 wouldn't do anything.
Maybe no treatment at all Is what you
need until you get rested up again.
Anyway the things you've tried
haven't helped you you say and this
might."
"Not do anything?" exclaimed Sim-
coe in amazement. "Why if I took a
chance like that I'd probably be dead
as a pickled eel before tomorrow. I'm
on my way now to Bee a new sort of
medical genius that puts his patients
in a barrel and piles hot bricks on
their head3. It's said that ho has
worked some wonderful cures.
"But as for me I don't hope for very
much. It doesn't seem to be much
use because the more I doctor some-
how the worse I get and the worse
get the more I have to doctrfr and
the more I doc "
But Jepson had lied.
Coal Mine Rescue Work.
Under the British mines accident
(rescue and aid) act It is established
that at every n ie in the United
Kingdom there shall be organized and
maintained competent rescue brigade
one when the Dumber of under
ground workmen Is 250 or less and in
creasing according to the number.
A brigade must consist of not less
than five persons employed at tht
mine carefully selected for theii
knowledge of underground work cool
ness and
powers of endurance and
( rtifled to be medically fit.
A majority must be "trained In first
aid. No brigade Is deemed compe-
tent without a course of training ap-
proved by the secretary of state.
The type of apparatus employed con-
sists of a mouthpiece breathing bags
tuin oxygen cylinders regenerator
injector and reducing valve.
It weighs 35 pounds and is at-
tached to the front of tho body by
straps. The cylinders contain to-
Tether ten cubic feet of oxygen at 120

Inured to Cold Climate.
An experiment has recently been
made by a firm of miners located in
l.'urwash creek (in tho Kluan district
175 miles west of White Horse Yukon
territory about latitude C3) In the
raising of horses. Abundance of fine
lands Is available for pasturing In
Alaska and the Yukon. Late In the
fall of 1911 a number of Oregon horses
used the previous summer by the In
ternational boundary survey corps
were taken to the head of the White
river near the International boundary
line and turned out for winter. The
mares and all the colts lived and are
doing well making more hardy ani-
mals than their predecessors. Several
Instances are known In which colts
foaled in the far north have grown Into
the hardiest of horses having become
fully Inured to the severity of the win-
ters. It has been observed that when
horses have lived for some length of
time In this region that they become
naturally protected from the extreme
cold by the growth of a longer coat of
hair.

Not Altogether a Hero.
After rescuing a boy from a pond at
Zurich Switzerland r-'cently a pe-
culiar reason for doing so was given
by another boy ton years old Hans
Weber. "I should never have troubled
about him if he had not been wear-
ing my skates" was the laconic pro-
test of the boy when complimented on
the rescue at the risk of his life of
the boy who had fallen through tho

ment of each car mny be opened with-
out such unanimous consent.
Wonders of English.
The following letter from a native
of India to a misslona'r gives proof
of the surprising possibilities of the
English language: "Hear She": My

the honor of presenting myself there

Treating a Cold.
Wo like to think that we are muc)
wiser much more sensible and mucl
further advanced than our ancestors
and so we are perhaps In many way
Yet almost a hundred and fort;
years ago John Adams who wai
working for his country like man;
other men and who had no Idea tha
he would one day bo president am
that his sayings would bo worth quot
lng prescribed tho most modern sor
of treatment for a cold plenty o
fresh air.
John Adams' Treatment for Cold.
In a letter dated May 12 1771 John
Adams wrote to his wife: "My cold
Is the most obstinate and threatening
I ever had in my life. However I
am unwearied In my endeavors to
subdue It and have the pleasure to
think 1 have had some success. I
rise at 5 walk three miles keep the
air all day and walk again in tho
afternoon."
Deadly Parallel.
"There's no doubt about my getting
In" said the newly- arrived shade ta
Saint Peter. "Here's a newspaper
clipping of the eulogy tho minister de
livered at my funeral." "Take this"
returned Saint Peter handing the
clipping ta the Recording Angel "and
compare It with his past perform-
ances." The Voice a Pearl.
Elihu Burritt says of the voice:
"Watch It day by day as a pearl of
great price for It will be worth more
to you In the days to come than the
best pearl hid In the sea. A kind
voice in joy like a lark's song to a
hearth at home. Train it to sweet
'ones now and it will keep In tuna
'hrough life."
Quite So.
"Love Is a joint stock concern"
murmured the girl. "Sort of a hold-
ing company" opined the young man
as he gently shifted her to his other
knee.
