times was the examination and so evi-

that the spectators laughed.
This Important line from the text
book was read:
"The frozen brain cannot be removed
without fatal damage.''
His Views Have Changed.
This siemed to have a deep effect
on the jury. An autopsy on a frozen
body was distinctly advlBed agaiusl lr,

body could not, the author had writ-

It wa* Just before the noon recossj
that Mr Walsh threw a shot into the
state's case by reading Doctor Hek
toen's book advising against using hoi
water In a frozen body. Hot water
which may have carried off Important
«vtdences of disease, was used In Col.
.Swope s autopsy.
Comparisons between the book'i
directions and the conduct of the Col.

although Dr. Hektoen said he had writ

changed his views in some points.

day morning on the charge of killing
his wife, Frances Kimmel Potterton.

mitted to bail of $10,000, has been sur-
rendered by his bondsmen and was
taken to the county Jail at W in field
His bondsman, Albert H. Denton,
president of the Home National bank,
this city, decided after a conference
with his attorneys that the securities,
which are In the shape of deeds and
abstracts on property belonging to Mrs.

insurance policy, were not sufficient
to Justify him in retaining his Blgna
ture on the bond.

Washington, May X—According to
letters said to have been written by
Theodore Koosevelt, the ex-presldent
thoroughly indorss the administration
of Mr. Taft and favorB Mr. ixieb for
governor of New York to succeed Mr.
Book ( Hughes.
Letters to this effect are said by
the Washington Post to have been re-
ceived by Mr. Taft, Seuator Hoot and
William I.oeb, Jr., collector of the port
of New York. Mr. Roosevelt Is shown
by tile letters, it 1b said, to be unalter-
ably opposed to a return to public life.
The colonel will not even be a candi-
date to succeed Chauncey M. Depew In
the senate, and much less would he
desire any other office.
The article does not attempt to quote
the letters of any portion of them.
It Is said, also, the ex-president will
not be a candidate for the presidency
in 1912. On the contrary, his letters
are Bald to Indicate that it is his con-
viction that the reelection of Presi-
dent Taft Is the Republican party's
duty.

presented to the business men of these
cttlea. All told, 83,000 business men
registered as delegates for 75 conven-
tions, paying a dollar for the privilege.
In addition, thousands of other men
attended the various sessions.
Each convention opened with a ban-
quet. In most every case these ban-
quets were the largest in the history
of the cities. All of these cities and
hundreds of the surrounding towns
are represented at tl~ • Chicago con-
gress.
A national missionary policy will be
adopted. This policy will be sent to
the World's Missionary conference at
Edinburgh, Scotland, on June 14,
where it is expected to exert a pro-
found influence. The delegates are
appointed amongst the various Pro-
testant churches of America in ac-
cordance with their membership and
gifts to missions. The Methodist
Episcopal church leads with 600 dele-
gates. The Presbyterian church is
second with 400 men. The Northern
Baptist church has a quota of 330 men,
while the Southern Baptist convention
sent 200 men. The Southern Metho-
dist church Is represented by 255 men.

pointed 210 delegates. Most of the
other churches have proportionate rep-
resentation.
The various sessions are held in
the Auditorium. The congress opened
with the singing of "Crown Him Lord
of All." Right Reverend Charles P.
Anderson, Episcopal bishop of Chi-
cago. made the opening address. He
spoke on the "Will of Christ for the
World," dwelling upon the need of
church unity. Bishop W. L. McDowell

railroad earnings on record, it may
be said in passing that the tonnage ol

now is the greatest In the history ol

greatly disturbed by the unexpected
opposition to this advance in rates.

3t. Louis, May 3—Those who are
listening to the call of the plow will
soon have an opportunity to become
real farmers, in spite of depleted
pocket-books. A meeting will be called
at the Planter's hotel Thursday morn-
ing at 10 o'clock by Gov. Hadley at
which a plan for interesting million-
aires who have money that Isn t work-
ing In establishing farm colonies.
The farms composing the colony
unit will be sold to the Intelligent
would-be farmer on payments which
can be made in a term of ten or 12
years. The preliminary prospectus,
which was drafted by Gov. Hadley,
John H. Curran, chief commissioner of
immigration, Eyid Frederick Deming
Tucker, formerly in charge of the
school of agriculture at the University
of Minnesota, but now a St. Lou,s busi-
ness man, names the planned federa-
tion of farmers-to-be "National Farm
Homes association."
The farmers of the prospectus be-
lieve they have solved the problem of
the high cost of living. What they
have to say has in its solid lagic. It is
believed by these men that the«e are
too many consumers to be taken care
of by a very few successful farmers
and that many of the consumers would
be only too glad to become farmers If
the financial opportunity were pre-
sented. —e new association will seek
the opportunity and it will not cost
the prospective farmers a cent in ad-
vance nor will he be asked to pay any-
thing until fter the first year has been
safely crossed. After that he can pay
at his ease.

There Is every prospect at the
present time that Shawnee will be-
come the cotton manufacturing cen-
ter of the Southwest. Two cotton
mills are already asking for admis-
sion, and it is known that at least
one more can be Becured within the
next few months.
The advantage of a cotton mill or
several cotton mills in a city of
Shawnee's size can not be overesti-
mated. In every populous city there

and it is only natural that she should
give employment to new-comers and

not skilled workmen. To this class

of employment that will mean their
salvation.

Close of Remarkable Campaign.
This convention marks the close of a
remarkable religious campaign. Dur-
ing the winter and spring, missionary
conventions were held under the aus-
Wall Street Has Fears.
This brings the government once
more in the foreground of Wall street
and seems to Justify the fears of those
financers who believe that politics is
destined to play a star part In all
stock market proceedings this year.
So despondent have many leading
bankers become that they look for the
return of Theodore Roosevelt with re-
lief. They believe that in order to
save congress to the Republicans he
will repudiate much that has been
done in his name and put himself at
the head of the movement to restore
confidence in business. The railroad
interests, while admitting the tre-
mendous earnings at present, are
pointing ahead to the time when there
will be a radical difference in this re-
spect. Many of them have already
made generous advances in wages and
the operating expenses are Increasing
at a rapid rate. Leading systems have
reported large net losses for March
although the gross earnings were
higher than previous records. With
the new schedules of wages in effect
the operating expenses will be still
more Increased and instead of rumors
of increased dividends the talk will
be possible decrease. Leadking rail-
roads have at present announced large
financing that must be done to the ex
tent of $200,000,000. It will be diffi-
cult to put this business through ii

thousands would make a prosperous

quest of L. D. Brandeis attorney for
L. R. Glavis, that documentary evi-
dence be called for to establish defi-
nitely the date of Attorney General
Wickersham's approval of the charge
submitted to President Taft. Several
votes were taken 'by the oommittee
and the result was the same in each
Instance, Representative Madison of
Kansas voting with the Democrats.
The action of the committee shuts oft
ail attempts on the part of the Glavls-
Plnchot lawyers to get at evidence of
a documentary character bearing on
the date of the attorney general's re-
port. However, the suggestion was
thrown out that Secretary Ballinger
yet had an avenue of attack through
a resolution of the house of representa-
tives.
It was pointed out that the Republi-
can insurgents and Democrats having
demonstrated their control of the
house can, if they desire to do so, eas-
ily pass a resolution calling on Mr.
Wlckersham to produce the documents
for which the Investigating commit-

Daily Helps to Health
and Happiness
By~ GEORGE F. BUTLER. A. M., M. D.
If you are on the brow of the
hill, the highest peak of your
life's mountain, resolve, If you
would remain long there, to so
live as to maintain a steady
nerve, a kind heart, a cheerful
disposition, and a keen apprecia*
tlon of the advantages you have
gained. Your life may have
been one of toil—all the better
for that. You have had your
cares, burdens, anxieties, wor-
ries, sorrows and afflictions, and
you have risen above them. Pos-
sibly you are confronting some
now that seem greater than you
can bear, but don't waver; brace
up; stir up your courage, and
determine that you will not
abandon hope. Have you ap-
parently failed? Not a bit of it.
Let no such word as "fail" be
in your vocabulary. Have you
succeeded? Has the wave of
prosperity come your way? If
so, go right on with your work,
but In a modified way. When
you have passed 50, don't retire
from business or professional
work, but be willing to put on
the brakes, and realize that it is
the part of wisdom, as we ad-
vance In years, to be satisfied
to do a little less work, but to
do it better. Keep In the har-
ness, but adjust the harness In
such a manner as to make It
bear a little easier on all your
parts, and cultivate skill In mov-
ing along the lines of least re-
sistance.
