A Kansas woman, Beesie A. Stan- ley, of Lincoln, won a $250 prize by writing the following definition of ‘What Constitutes Success: ‘He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the trost of pure women and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished hie task; who has left the world bet- ter than he found it whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem ora rescued soul; who never lacked eppreciation of ’s beauty or failed to exprees {t; who has always looked for the best in others and giv- en the best he had; whose life was an 4 nspiration; whose memory a bene diction.” ‘Then Two Women Stole Thous- ands of Dollars Worth of Goods. Webb City, Mo., Nov. 26.—The O fiicials of this clty have brought to Nght one of the most systematic robberies ever known here. Asa re- sult of the diseovery Henry M. Wade and Ada Bennett, of Webb City, and Ollie Richardson and Frank Davis, vestigation, Humphreys’ department store was is estimated that the loss to this store will prove to be more than $1,000. The goods were secured by three persons with the connivance of Wade, who wasa trusted employe of the store. The two women and Davis are under arrest, and Wade {s belng held as a witness. Hundreds of dollars worth of goods have been located in the room of Ada Bennett in the Swartz bulld- ing, Webb City, and in the room of Ollie Richardson, of 104 Pennsyl- vania avenue, Juplin. The goods found in the room of the Bennett woman have been identified as com- ing from Humphreys’, bnt those found in the room of the Richardson woman have not yet been seen by the managers of the store. The stolen goods consist of high price dress goods, suits, skirts, silks, velvets, boxes of kid gloves and oth- er articles of substantial value. They at first succeeded in estab- Mshing an intimacy with Wade, who, by the way is @ man well advanced in years and then, while one of them engaged his attention and charmed him with her presence, the other oc- cuptied the time to the best possible advantage in selecting such articles as they desired to take away with them. They do not admit, however, that they regarded {t as theft, Their theory is that Wade gave them the goods as presente in token of his ap- preciation of their frequent visite to help pass away the lonely hoursdur- ing his nightly vigils. . All four of the parties under arrest were taken before Justice Cresswell. The two women’and Frank Davis were committed to the Carthage jail in default of $1,000 bond to await their preliminary hearing on Friday, Wade is being held at the police sta- tion subject to the f Mille Whitney, of East Boons town- ship, were united in 1 ‘sap last Wednesday, The conte..\\iug par- of Joplin have been detained for tn- | »¢ ~*~ CAUGHT Te LONE BANDIT A Chicago & Alton Passenger Train Held up Near Glasgow, Missouri. ROBBED SEVERAL OF THE PASSENGERS Boarded the Train at Slater and Starting With the Smoker Went Through the Entire Train, Locking Each Car as he Finished His Work — Arrested at Armotroug, Glasgow, Mo., Nov. 26.—The “Early Bird,” the St. Louis and Chicago train of the Chicago & Alton railroad, which left Kansas City at 9 o’clock Sunday night, was boarded by a lone robber at Slater, Mo, He went through the ing car and sleeper, robbing 16 or gers, The robbery took place and Glasgow. A man who is believed to be the robber was arrested at Armstrong, Mo., and taken to the jai! at Glasgow, A dirty looking man got on the train at Slater and entered the smok- er. When the train was east of Gil- liam he put on a handkerchief mask under his eyes and held up all the passengers in the smoker. He then locked them in with Conductor E. B. Heywood and went into the chair car which was next. Then he went through to the sleeper, after’ locking the door in the chair car. In the sleeper he held up the passengers, After he had held up that car he went through five other cars to the rear of the train without holding up any more passengers. The arrested man was taken to Glasgow on the next train for safe keeping. He will not tell who he is and denies being the robber, but some of the stolen goods was found in his possession, It is supposed that he is the same man who held up the Golden State limited some time ago on the Chicago & Alton and he thought this train would not stop at Glasgow or Armstrong. The ‘tralnmaster of the Alton, J. L. Marquette, and the operator, Mr. Henry, at Slater saw the robber be- fore he boarded the train. He arrived at the station about ten minutes be- fore the train was due and they no- ticed him loafing about the platform. They said he was a white man and gave this description of him: Five feet, five inches tall, weight about 135 pounds. He wore a corduroy cap. His face was full, red and clean shaven. He wore a much soiled light overcoat. The Conductor's Story. St. Louis, Nov. 26.—Conductor Everett B. Heywood, who single hand- ed overcome a train robber on the Al ton-Burlington fast train reached St. Louls Monday. He said that the man admitted to him that he had robbed a Rock Island passenger train at al- most the same place about a month ago. Conductor Heywood sald that the robber “got the drop” on him and forced him to go through the amoker while the passengers were President's Fleet Sighted. .

Deaths and Serious Injuries Reduced Nearly On Half by the New Rules, Chicago, Nov, 26.—Eleven dead and 104 severely injured is tho record of the football season of 1906, recording to the resume of the season'gaccidents In the Tribune Sunday, These figures ‘are compared with the casualties of 1905, when 18 players were killed and 159 severely injured, and according to the Tribune shows that “de brutalized” football has accomplished in a large degree the object aimed at, in render- jing the game less dangarous t Ife and limb. The decrease in casualties is especially marked among high school players. In the season of 1905 jeleven high school players were killed and 47 injured, In the season just closed seven were killed and 25 were badly hurt. All the college and high school games this yeur were played lunecr the new rules drawn up after |the close of last season to satisfy the gitntion for less dangerous football d by the long list of casualties in the season of 1905, The value of i [the new rules is shown in tha record of the big college games, This year ‘not one fatality has occurred in the \ games pleyed by the iarger American \colleges, |HIS SHOES MADE BY NEGROES. Andrew Carnegie Buys His Footwear at Tuskegee Institute, Says Booker T. Washington, New York, Nov. 26--Andrew Car- negie, according to Booker T, Wash- ington, who spoke last night at the | Universalist church of the Divine Pa- ternity, buys his shoes at Tuskegee, Ala., where they are made by colored students, The speaker sald the students in the past year made 2,000,000 brick. There are, he said, more than 1,500 students representing 36 states and 12 foreign countries. The value of the institute property, he said, is now $800,000, It has an endowment of $1,- 500,000 for the material increase of which there is an active campaign on hand. “We are changing the ideal of the black race,” declared Dr. Wash- ington. “We are teaching them that labor is honorable and that idleness is not. And they are recognizing it too. We have graduated 6,000 students, and they are for the most part, sober, in- |dustrious men and women.” Commends Finger Print System. Washington, Nov. 26.—Commenting upon the finger print system which has been adopted by the war depart- ment as @ means of insuring the de- tection of fraudulent enlistments and the identification of deserters with greater ease, Maj. Gen, Ainsworth, the miltary secretary im his annual report says: “The finger prints of an unidentified dead soldier in the field ;. Man’s inhumanity to Man. . The average man comes very near being an idiots in taking care of him- eelf. You have seen him wearing a fur cap on his head, while his shoes jes in the snow and water. He wears an overcoat on his back and noth ‘ing buta thin shirt over his chest- | He is mighty ecared about freezing . } bis fingers while his throat isexposed | to blizzards and he ts often alling or | thinking he is, Is’s herb tea, root | tonics, Peter’s pilis, Paul’s pine ter cordials or plasters and cares, until the balance wheelfn the machine comes toastop. Nature wants to keep going, but she can’t. He drinks whiskey and that clogs the valves; the driaks beer and that-clogs the ‘wheelk; he pours down lemonade, |gingerale, buttermilk, ice water, tea _ coffee, and what not, and thea won dere why the fires under the boiler do not burn. Ifyou should take an ox and put him throagh a lik» per- formance he'd be dead tna year. The simplest and pliinest laws of health arewutraged every hour of the day by the average man, Did Adam smoke? Did Eve wear coreetes? Did Solmon chew tobacco? Did Ruth chew gum? Did the children of Israel make for a beer garden after cross- ing the Red sea? Did Rebecca eat gum drops and {ce cream and call for soda water? Adam wae the first and was made perfect from head to heel. How long would he remain so after eating a wince ple before going to bed? Suppose he had slept ina bed room 5x7 with the windows down, the doors shut and two dogs under the bed? Suppose Eve had laced herself up in a corset, put on tight shoes, set up all hours of the night eating her fill of trash and sizzled her hair.

What have vou?” “Why, it’s this way,” said the call er lowering his voice. ‘‘My wife gave @ small party last night, and Iam willing to pay to have this report: of the affair put in the paper.” “We don’t charge anything for publishing society news,” observed the young man at the desk, taking the proffered manuscript and look- ing it over. “That's all right,” was the reply. “You don’t understand.

Last op after having my little girl treated by a very prominent physician for an obsti- nate case of eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura Remedies, and was 80 pleased with the almost instantaneous relief afforded that we discarded the physician's prescription and relied en- tirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Pills, When we commenced with the Cuticura Rem- edies her feet and limbs were co with running sores, In about six weeks we had her completely well, and there has been no recurrence of the trouble. “In July of this ret a little boy in our family poisoned his hands and arms with poison oak, and in twenty-four hours his hands and arms were a mass of torturing sores. We used yy A Cuticura Remedies, washing his handg and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and anointed them with the Cuticura Oint- ment, and then gave him the Cuticura Resolvent. In about three weeks hands and arms healed up; so we have lots of cause for feeling grateful for the Cuticura Remedies. We find that the Cuticura Remedies are a valuable household standby, living as we do twelve miles from a doctor, and where it costs from twenty to twenty-five dol- lars to come on the mountain, Respectfully, T3.
