EVERY FAMILY SHOULD KEEP Husband in a Trunk. DR. TIGHENOR'S ANTISE PTIC Portland, Ore., March 25.—An at- tempt by the police to arrest Hugh For use in case of accident or Testard, wanted in 8%. Louls on 8 charge of forging railway tickets, was cunningly frustrated by his wile. The police had gone to Testard’s house, but his wife, delaying them by some pretext, concealed him in a trunk and thea admitted the police. The latter searched the house and failed to find Testard and then de- parted.- Testard and his wife then hurriedly left thecity. Testard anda partner named H. G. Caspary wereengaged in the ticket brokerage business in St. Lovis dur- ing the World’s Fair. They closed up their business and left St. Louis in December. In January they were indicted by the grand jury on a charge of forging railway tickets, the charge being that of forgery in the third degree. J.H. Norton, joint agent of the Union Station, says that Testard and Caspary had an ingenious de- vice with which they plugged up the punched date in an old rallway ticket punching a date ahead of time in the place and then used an acid which, removing all the writing and leaving it possible for them to fill out the ticket in any manner,desired. After they had left St. Louis, Mr. Norton says, 200 of these tickets were found in their office. Their indictment fol- lowed. Caspary was arrested In Portland some time ago and taken back to St. Louis.

A series of swindles, on quite anex- tensive scale, has jast come to light, in which the bank at Humansville, Collins, Osceola, and the two banks at this place were the victims, The perpetrator of the crooked transac- tion was a man by the name of Fred Cochran, a farmer about thirty years of age, living near Tiffin, St. Clair county, about ten miles northeast of this place. His method of doing bus- iness consisted of giving a chattel mortgage on mules and other stock, some of which existed only in. his imagination. This property, real or imaginary, was mortgaged to some or all of the banks in question. Cochran left the country last Thureday but his destination is un- known. Heis a married man and has hitherto sustained a reputation as an honorable upright citizen. A vigorous effort will be made to bring about his arrest, as the banks are well organized for hunting down criminals of thie character it is safe to predict that he will soon be safely in the toile of the law.—Eldorado Springs Sun. Three in One Day. Denver, March 27.—The bargain made by leaders of the opposing Re- publican factions of Colorado to take the governor’s chair from Alva Adame and to seat in it Governor James H. Peabody to hold it for one day was carried to a conclusion. In fulfillment of the agreement which he made before the general as- eembly decided the gubernatorial contest in his favor, Governor James H. Peabody has resigned the office to which he was inaugurated late Thurs- day afternoon. Governor Adams was ousted and Governor Peabody installed by the general assembly about 5 o’clock Thursday afternoon, and Governor McDonald was sworn in before 5 p. m Filday. Thus in a space of less than twenty four hours Colorado has had three governors. —— “AFTER THE STANDARD OIL. Missouri To Try and Oust the Company From the State. Jefferson City, March 27.—Herbert 8.

May Is Expected To Quit Cabinet * Washington, March 27.—It is al- nost a conviction in Cabinet circles \$hat John Hay will-not return tothe post of Secretary of State. Allplans hat are being made by President osevelt and hie Cabinet are based n the expectation that Mr. Hay, hen he stepped on the steamer for japles, retired from public life. The reason for this expectation is he condition in which thoseintimate f@ith Mr. Hay know him to have en in when he sailed. He had ex- Pressed a wish to retire from public e much earlier than last week. It at the President's suggestion at Mr. Hay decided that he would hnounce no decision until he had d the efficiency of the trip to the Famditerranean. Mut none of Mr. Hay’s intimates him to resume his duties and eady there is speculation as to his , Vagrancy Causes Crime. Governor Vardaman, of Missis- sippi, has issued an address to the peace officers of the state asking them to do all in thelr power to pre- vent crime and lessen the number of lynchings. “The negro is the barbarian] still, with a thin veneering of civilization” says the address, “and the education afforded him by the white man’s money over a period of forty yeare seems only to have increased his ca- pacity for crime. In his educated condition his aspiration to riee in the world and stand on a@ level with the white man, eoclally and ofhers wise, manifests itself in base as- saults on white women. I want the law enforced. I want the negro: protected in the enjoyment of life, liberty, the product of his la- bor and the pursuit of happiness. I want the mob spirit discouraged in every way. And the only way to do it is to enforce vigorously the law against vagrants. Iftbis !s done I feel safe in saying that crime among the negroes in the state of Missise!ppi for the year 1905 will decrease 75 percent. , Woman’s Right to Kill.

Before the trust got in its deadly work tobacco was sold by ordinary commission merchants and the farmers received 15' to 20 cents a pound for it. Since the trust drove the commission merchants out, the farmer gets only 5 and 6 cents a pound. The low rate for leaf tobac- co scarcely pays the labors for rais- ing it and leaves nothing at all for the capital invested in a farm. Harbin a Charnel House.
