1 never had Vii.v conversation with him regarding liie McMurray contracts, and had no personal interest in them in any way." Mr. Sherman said he had heard nothing of the alleged attempt to bribe Senator Gore until the hitter's declaration on the floor of the senate and no names were mentioned at that time. "I have endeavored always to show Senator Gore every consideration in the senate, as he is blind." he said, "and 1 think the manly thing for him to hae done if my name was mentioned in connection with the McMurray contracts, would have been to have informed me."

It will cost more than the finest clock in the city.

It will cost ubout $2,000. Who dares say that time isn't valuable. Th? school board isn't sure yet that it will put the clock in as soon as the building is completed, it will be installed as soon as possible. The whole clock family will keep house in the high school building. Papa clock will be in the principal's office and thirty other little clocklets will be scattered over the building.

Tho master clock will be connected with the other clocks in the. building so that the movement of its hands will cause a simultaneous movement of th hands of every other clock in the building. This assures the same time in every room in the building. The recitation bells will be regulated by the clock.

The preliminary surveys of the Wichita, McPherson sunt Gulf railway, chartered lust week by a number of Wichita business men, will be commenced before the first of September. This is the news brought home this morning by C. II.

brooks, who has been in Philadelphia for several days conferring with President C. K. lu-gersol of the Valley railway relative to the extension of that line through this city to McPherson. Mr. Brooks went to Philadelphia early this week.

He was accompanied by Mayor C. L. Davidson, postmaster W. Edwards, Frank C. Wood and J.

W. MeCloud of Muskogee. These men held a conference with President In gersol Wednesday and received every assurance that the officers of the Midland valley company are favorable to the extension of the line from Arkansas City 100 miles northward. Choose the Best Route. "The preliminary surveys of the proposed extension will be made immediately by the engineers of the Midland Valley railway," said Mr.

Brooks this morning. "When thcie surveys are completed we will select the route that offers the greatest opportunity for a new line and the largest pecuniary encouragement. "There are several excellent routes to choose from. The smaller towns all along the line know that and are already making proposals and offers to secure the road. Inquiries have become more numerous of late.

"The organization of the new railway company and the auxiliary eon-strurtioiiii company will be made Immediately. This will be done in Wichita, probably next week. President ln-gersel will not be here as lie lias sailed for England. I hold his proxy, however, and his absence ill not prevent the organization of the companies. Consider the Encouragement.

"The chief business for the immediate future will be to find out if there is sufficient interest In the new road. When the preliminary purveys are completed wo will see how much each route has to offer in the way of bonds and bonuses. The building of the road depends entirely on this encouragement. "if the Wichita. McPherson and Gulf railway Is built this will be one of the most Important points on the line.

The division headquarters will be located here and repair shops for the northern half of the line. The general shops of the Midland Valley are already located in Muskogee but the terminals here would be important." quent appointment of a committee to with a very high heel and a very thick sole to keep some dainty "Triby" from the thick mud of Paris.

The mountain air has greatly benefited both the vice president and Mrs. Sherman Htid the latter has about recovered from her recent illness. Mr. Sherman expects to remain at the camp until Sunday when he will return to Utica to attend to some business matters. He plans to spend as much time as possible at the camp during August and expects to take the stump in the West for the republican congressional campaign late in the month, opening probably in Illinois.

He said he probably would deal largely with the tariff issue in his speeches. Elmer Johnson Appeared in Court With Sundry Slits and Slashes on Him and Was Entered as Exhibit A. Because some had orked at the recent primaries for Fitzpatriok and Wall and others had worked for Bridgnian and other candidates, bad blood was stirred up among several negroes in the Second ward and last night it culminated in a cutting scrape. Miner Johnson appeared in police court this morning with divers slits and slashes in his anatomy and a big talc of woe, while John McCullough, andy Patten, Albert Fair and Fred Martin represented the other side. "I did call McCullough a bad name, judge," said Johnson.

"He and the ithers accused me of getting more out if the primaries than they did, and McCullough wanted nie to give him S2 to help pay his rent. I promised to do so, but when I called him a name he got mad and wanted to fight nie. "1 did work for Fitzpatrlck and for you, judge, but I never got a cent for it. I won $8 on the result of the primary from Fred Martin and I spent it all at Sandy Patten's boozo joint and Fred Martin waited on nie. When I had spent all my money then they jumped on me and cut me up.

1 am not through with them, for I will get two or three of those negroes yet; you see if 1 don't." McCullough. who was the other principal in the fight, was a Bridgnian voter at the primary. He said that Johnson had "dug into" hiin with two bricks and he had been compelled to protect himself with a "pen knife." Sandy Patten told very much WILL CHANGE COUNTY ROAD County Engineer Messer Is Making Estimate on the Work. County Engineer Messer is making an estimate on tho cost of changing the direction of a road which is located in West Gypsum township. As the road now runs, it makes an abrupt turn to the east and runs through a stretch of timber.

As there are many automobiles driven over this particular stretch of road, the tax payers, for their own safety, have petitioned tli New York Society Is Also Talking of the Rumor of a Reconciliation With Colonel Astor Denies Curzon Story. New York, Aug. a. New York is guessing on the one hand whether the Karl of Rocksavage fias any chance to marry Mrs. Ava Willing Astor and on the other whether Mrs.

Aetor's return from Europe yesterday has anything to do with the considerable tnlk of a reconciliation with Col. John Jacob Astor. Society also desires to know what there is in the talk about the beautiful divorcee and Lord Curzon. Mrs. Aster's answer was given yesterday when she walked down the gang plank from the Oceanic: "I do not intend to be married to Lord -Curzon or anybody else," she said.

And, of course, nobody would expect her to tell if she wa. She may have had her fingers crossed when she Baid it. The Karl of Rocksavage, who is said to be Mrs. Astor'B latest conquest, is a noted polo player In England. He came over on the Oceanic and was noticeably attentive to his fellow passenger, Mrs.

Astor. Mrs. Astor would not say where she was going. Her ex-husband is in Newport. Vincent Astor, who came down from Newport on the yacht Noma to meet his mother, said she was going to the Adirondacks.

Mrs. Astor's effort to swear off all her duties as a transient non-resident was not successful, although she stated that she did not own a square tnch of real estate In the United States. Her twenty-eight pieces of baggage were adjudged to be the property of a resident and a citizen and she paid about $500 duty on the contents of them. MUTILATED BODY FOUND. roads in the county are being improved at the expense of the townships and a good many private roads are being built.

Mr. Messer says that this is a result of the good roads movement which has been general in the state for the past year. county commissioners to change the curs move ELEVATED GAME direction of the road and run it along the township line instead of through the stretch of timber. The county Santa'Rosn, Cal Aug. 5.

The mutilated body of a woman with the head and legs missing, was found late today in a canyon near the Kendall ranch. The body has not been positively identified biit it is the general belief here that it is that of Mrs. I'ra Kendall, who lias been missing with tier husband and son suiee July engineer lias not completed his esti mate on the cost of making the changs but stated that as the property owners on the road were so anxious to have the change made, it will probably be done. MAYOR TALKED WITH RAILWAY MEN IN CHICAGO. CRUEL TREATMENT ALLEGED the same kind of a story and so did Martin Fair.

Among other exhibits made by Martin was a scalp wound which he said he received from Johnson after the ffrst battle was over and Johnson had been released on a bond. After hearing all the evidence. Judge Wall decided that Johnson was most to blame, so he fined him $20 and let the others go. Johnson left the court room threatening that he would get one or two of the others, and the police fear that the trouble may terminate even more seriously unless friends interfere and patch up the after-primary troubles. SHERMAN CALLS IT FALSE Declares He Never Was Connected In Any Way With the McMurray Indian Contracts.

I-Slg Moose, N. Aug. 5. Vice President Sherman today branded as untruth any statement purporting to connect him with t. personal interest In the McMurray Indian land contracts.

Sitting before a blazing log at Camp Craig on Big Moose lake, where he is passing the summer with his family, Mr. Sherman read carefully the testimony of United States Senator Gore before the special congressional investigating committee at Muskogee yesterday. "I never heard my name mentioned In connection with the contracts which were the subject of Senator Gore's tesi-mony yesterday," he said. "I never had any interest of any kind other than the interest I have had for years In the welfare of the Indians and which I shall ever have in any Indian contract-no personal interest, I mean. "The story so far as my.

name is concerned, is without any foundation whatever. If any person has said I had any interest in this or any other Indian contract he had stated what was untrue." Had Met Hamon. Mr. Sherman said he remembered GROWING THINGS. Silver Badge Poem In August St.

Nicholas Oh, I am a child of the country, and I love not the cities grim, My heart Is akin to the wild things, and the woodlands vast and dim. Where the winds and the brook make music, and, faint from his cool retreat, Conies the voice of the thrush at even, In a madrigal wild and sweet. Oh, I am a child of the country, and the orchard knows my tread. When the boughs shine white with blossoms, and the buds tie pink and red. And hand In hand, In the moonlight, go my soul's beloved and I.

And we need no words to question, no words, to make reply. I am a child of the country, and I love the fields at morn. Where the air comes fresh and fragrant, and the joy of the day is born: Loud carols the cheerful robin to the linnet over the way. And the growing things, and the birds and I welcome the dawn of day.

Santa Rosa, Aug. the district attorney believes to be partial substantiation of the story of cruel treatment told by Yamaguchl, the Japanese suspected of the Murder of htree members of the Kendall family near Casadero, was discovered today when a bloodstained ax was found buried in the garden. Yamaguchl declared to Mrs. Starbuck, owner of the ranch on which the Kendalls lived, that Mrs.

Kendall had attacked him with an as. No trace of Yamaguchi has been discovered and there is belief among the oficials that he may have made away with himself as he told the Starbucks he Intended to do. ANTHONY HAS NO WATER. Officials of Interested Roads Are Agreed On Division of the Cost City's Turn Now to Do Something. So far as now appears there is nothing in the way of a complete agreement on the part of the railroads Interested in the elevation of tracks in Wichita.

Tills is the report brought 'from Chicago by Mayor Davidson, who returned last night. Practically all the details of the proposed improvement have been agreed to by the heads of the Hock Island, Frisco, Orient and Santa Fe, and It is now up to the people of Wichita and the city commissioners. "It will be necessary for the commissioners to adopt an ordinance in conformity with the proposed plans and giving the railroad companies the right to build the elevated tracks and pro- tect them in so doing." said Mayor Davidson today. "This ordinance has not yet been prepared and will not be prepared until President Hurley of the 8a nt a Fe returns from Kurope, where lie is at present. While in Chicago I talked with representatives of the roads that are interested in the measure and was assured by them that there was nothing in the way of a satisfactory agreement among themselves.

If this is true then it is up to us to adopt a suitable ordinance as soon as possible so that the companies can get at the work."
