It- would be no surprise if congress, the members of which also were voted for today, declared the election void when the body is organized and re- vises the returns, The leaders of the Catholic narty claimed a long lead, although they were unable to estimate the number of votes polled for their candidates, Frederico Gamboa and General Ras- con, If this claim is correct, it is senerally thought that Gen. Felix Diaz and Senor Requena ran second. The Liberal candidates, Manuel Ca- lero and Flores Magon, had no print ed ticket at the polling places, the constituents being obliged to write their names in blank spaces. President Huerta spent the day at his Popotla suburban home. A decree will be issued by Huerta, increasing the army from 85,000 men, its alleged present number, to 150,000 men, Gen- eral Huerta proposed such an increas sonie ttme ago, but the congress which he «dissolved limited him to 80,000, Since the deputies and senators are hot subject to the election provisions governing the presidential elections, it is said that the choice for con- sress is assured. It is assumed in showing so far as known the Catholic yarty will secure a majority in both chamber and senate.

San Fran Cal, Oct. 27,—For five years m Bastain has been ppted by business men of this city, as a responsible citizen with a profit: able wholesale jewelry business. His property investments have been nu: merous and large; thousands of dol- lars have been sent by him to support his mother in Germany, and his young sister has had the best educational and social advantages. Now Bastain lies in the city prison, a confessed robber with a record cov- ering many years, captured by a girl's pet bull pup which pinned him in a corner as he stole through a back yard in the night.

The bodies of Mine Superintendent William McDermott and Henry P.

DARED DEATH IN WHIRLPOOL “Movie” Actor Navigated Rapids In Smal! Motor Boat—Rescued - by a Swimmer. Niagara Falls, N. Y., Oct. 24.—Over four hours in the grasp of the whirl- Pool in a small motor boat, Peter W. Langeard of Detroit was rescued al- most dead. , Langeard raade the trip through the Whirlpool Rapids from the Maid of the Mist, landing on the Canadian side, to the whirlpool, to furnish a sub- ject for a meving picture film. The trip had been made several times be- fore without mishap. Battled for Twelve Hours, Ludlow, Col., Oct. 27.—A general battle between strikers, mine guards and deputy sheriffs was waged for twelve hours in Berwift Canon, at Hastings and in the vicinity of the Colorado & Southern station at Lud- low.

Corn stalk disease, like hog cholera, is always to be dreaded andavoided if possible. It seems that there is no “sure cure” ineithercase. Inregard to the stalks it is a good plan to see to it that the cattle are not hungry when turned into the stalk field and also to see that they are well supplied with salt and water. Now that the baseball season is over and the world’s series is a thing of the past we may settle down to corn husking without hunting for an excuse to be at the gate when the mailman comes. game and our United States would be a lonesome place without it. In looking through our local stores afew days ago I could not find a single pair of leather husking gloves. There were hooks and pins of every and mittens. It seems that leather- | huskitig gloves are too clumsy for the | “hurry up”’ age in which we are. liv- | ing today. The cheap cast steel auger bit is a poor invention for a farmer who ever uses tools. A high-grade bit will last a long time with proper care and will do the work for which it is in- tended with ‘‘neatness and dispatch.’’ The cheap bit is of no earthly use except to have around to lend to chronic borrowers. Those who did not tie the tops of their corn shocks should go into the field and take a look at their fodder now after the rains, then make a visit to the neighbor’s field where the shocks aretied andcompare. A wide- awake farmer can learn a whole lot by obseryation. Jack Frost has been here toremind us that it is time to prepare for the coming of old King Winter himself. To get fuel and prepare shelter for man and beast will keep most of us busy tillsnow flies. With everything snug we may “‘let her howl’ with some degree of comfort. Corn is cheaper, though not yet low in price, nor will it be until we have at least one great crop that is a great crop everywhere.

But a few years ago I remember buying a good pair of overshoes for $1; now quality, cheaper. S , Some Kansas sage has said that the way to get through dry years in the best possible shape is to view the fu- ture as does the optimist and prepare for itas would the pessimist. This ought to leave a man free to set his own pace. . The chores, which must be done, rain or shine, is what disgusts many a man with farming. I must confess that many a time in my life I would have been glad of the chance to have had no chores to do, but, at the same time, it pays to do chores well. I doubt if any other work pays so well as chore work that is well done. with raw material much If you use PUTNAM FADE- L DYES and are not satis- fied, we will refund your money i or give you free enough dye to make your dy Creag Moyrog Drue Co., Quincy, Ill, PACIFIC RON MOUNTAIN Missouri Pacific Time Table BUTLER STATION CORRECTED OCT ‘19, 1913 NORTH.
