ROUTE OF PIONEERS Histoi ie Pekd o Mrk ol i 0d Time Trll Tokeka, Kan, Sept, 28.-—In their campaign to place permanent markers along the routes of the ploneer wagon trains through Kansas, the women's organizations of Kansas selected as the site for the most elaborate monu- men of all, the historie Pawnee Rock. Jt was here, historlans declare, that the most bloody battles with Indians occurred in the old days of the Sante ¥e Trall, which passes within a quars ter of & mile of the rocky eminence, On the crest of the outecropping of reddish, volcanic rock which served as & natural look-out for the Pawnee In- dians in their last stand against the whites' invasion, a granite shaft, 40 feet In helght, has been erected. In bold lettering at the base are the words “Pawnee Rock” and just above is an immense buffalo head, en- i graved in relief on the shaft, and the | inseription: “In honor of the brave women who passing over Banta Re Trall endured the hardships of frontier life and blazed the path of civilization for posterity.” It was through the efforts of wom- en’s organizations that a tract of about five acres was donated to the states as a park by Benjamine P, Un- ruh in 1908, Year by year these or- ganizations have improved with a granite gateway and wall, an obseryation tower, the mounting of two pieces of heavy field artillery*and a flag pole, and finally the granite shaft, Through the efforts of these organi- gations scores of granite markers have been placed along the original routes of the Santa Ke, the Oregun and other historic trails in this state. men and the Old SPIDERS ENTER DENVER, Insects Shaped Like Footballs Make | Invasion of Colorado’s Capital. Denver, Colo.,, Sept. 28.—A new species of soldiers, with bodies shaped like footballs and eight long legs, pink and striped with black, have made their appearance in Denver, according to A. E. Craig, who has captured many of them. The insects have wide nostrils, slit eyes, small mouths and ears, and were discovered in a shed owned by Craig. The spiders are believed to have been brought' here in tropical fruit and escaped to make their home in _ the shed. The web formed by the in- ' sects is thick and in the shape of a maple leaf. The splders have sharp Jaws and long feelers. When in dan- ger, it is said, they emit a poisonous, stream-like substance which forms a moisture on glass or any hard, ‘smooth surface: HAVE SEWING MACHINES, Chihuahua City, Mexico, Sept. 28. ~—A carload of sewing machines has arrived here from Kl Paso, Texas, “consigned to Mennonites at Bustilios. Other machines are to be sent to the Mennonites at Santa Clara. The Men- | nonites, it is said, have found a need for sewing machines, and intend to anake their own clothing in order to avold paying high prices in Mexican stores. This plan, it is sald, will also save the import duty on finished ma- terials imported from other countries. £ the site | Discovery in Cable Shop Leads (o Be- liet That Southern Atantio Hed s Undergolng Changes.

As con- sumption is rather widespread in the district his patients are many, and the man is rapidly making a fortune. His| remedy is a concoction of cabbages and milk boiled together for some hours by a special “secret process.” Other and more dangerous quacks are making fortunes for the moment, but the’situation is such that the au- horities have decided to step in and protect the credulous people.
