THE SANTA FE RAISES WAGES SOLDIER'S SAD HOME-COMING THE WORM PEST DISAPPEARS. KEG OF BEER ON PREMISES, PRESIDENT'S PLAN CHANGED. LESSONS BY MAIL Irg. McKinley' Condition Kecomeg Serious and All Plans for the Trip are Cancelled. San Franscisco, May 15.

Special to the Herald Mrs. McKinley's condition has become uch that all plans for the remaining trip through the northwest have been cancelled. As soon as Mrs. McKinley's condition will permit her to travel, the party will return to Washington by the most direct route. It was hoped that the rest and qaiet in San Francisco would quickly restore Mrs.

McKinley to health, but she has grown alarmiDgly worse. It is pretty generally understood now that the president will not be in Oitawa Jnne 8 as has been announced. The illness of Mrs. McKinley will cause him to go directly back to Washington' by the nearest route and Ottawa and other towns expecting to have the president will be disappointed. It is a disappointment which will be deeply felt but one which can not now be helped.

If there are any changes in the above plans the Herald will so announce in its next issue. For B. Y. P. U.

Rally, Olathe, the Santa Fe route will sell excursion tickets to Olathe at one and one-third fare for round trip. On sale June 7 to 12. Good for return until June 13. For B. Y.

S. M. Campbell, Agent Bar Machinists all Over the System Granted Three-Cent Increase Ottawa Men Share Good Fortune. According to an agreement reached Saturday between representatives of the Santa Fe company and representatives of the machinists employed by the company an increase of machinists' wages was granted to date from May 1. The increase is effective all over the system and benefits the Ottawa machinists as well as others.

There are two classes of machinists; one heretofore receiving 27 and the other 28 cents per hour. The first class receives, according to the new schedule, 30 cents and the second 31 cents per hour, dating forward from May 1. This increase includes all Santa Fe machinists in Kansas; and over the system there be a corres ponding increase, the final wage in many cases exceeding that already effective but in all cases equaling it. This action includes both union and non-union men, the Santa Fe refusing to sign any contract with a brotherhood. The machinists and the officials came to an agreement without any particular trouble, but the arrangement of the terms required considera ble time.

The machinists were in a position to receive what they believed was fair or quit the service of the com pany, and had not the demands of the committee been acceded to a general strike would have ensued immediately. Fifty-nine hours will constitute a week's work, as heretafore. The machinists having won their re quest for an advance, there is little question but that the blacksmiths and boiler makers will promptly ask an equally liberal treatment, and it is not doubted by railroad men that all lines of skilled labor in the shops will soon be enjoying an advance. Nothing had been heard at the shops this morning concerning the increase, though it usually requires a week or more for the formal announcement to be issued. Concert at Oakland.

The Ladies' Glee club, of Ottawa, assisted by Mrs. Fred Dobson, reader, and Mr. Frank Hilderbrand, soloist, will give a concert at Oakland church Wednesday evening, the 22nd, under the auspices of the Oakland Epworth League, who will serve ice cream. All are invited to come. Good music, good cream, good time.

Wells ville applied its new liquor ordinance the same as that recently passed by the Ottawa city council to its first victim Saturday and gave him 100 and costs. The transgressor was Bailey, a horse buyer, and manager of a livery barn. Bailey had a keg of beer at his place Friday night, claiming that it was for his own private use. He was arrested by the city marshal and his" fine and sentence promptly assessed by the police judge. Bailey paid S65 on his fine.

The city council held a session immediately after the matter was passed upon in court, and remitted the jail sentence. After thinking the matter over, Bailey decided to make a fight, and was here Monday to look up his rights undr the law. He retained Deford Deford to appeal the case for him. W. A.

Deford went to Wellsville Monday afternoon to look up the case. There is some question whether Bailey is in a position to take an appeal after having paid a portion of his fine. His attorneys state that a mandamus action will be instituted, if necessary. It was reported from Wellsville Monday that the marshal intended to knock in the head of the keg and that the "liberal" element was preparing to make that action a signal for trouble to commence.

A number of the soldiers of the Thirty-second volunteer infantry came in from the west Sunday, having been mustered out at San Francisco from a two years service in the Philippines.

In the company was Sherman Shin-kle of Ottawa, whose home-coming was coincident with the funeral of his father. Young Mr. Shinkle knew nothing of his father's death until he reached Osage City Sunday. He unexpectedly appeared from his long absence from home just at the conclusion of the funeral ceremony at the house. He was barely in time to see the remains of his father.

His arrival was not expected, for it was conjectured by his relatives that he would reenlist at Manila in the regular army. The remains of Jefferson Shinkle arrived from Colorado Saturday evening. Mr. Shinkle was a member of the Butcher construction gang and was killed by a train near Pueblo. Funeral was conducted from the residence on North Hickory street Sunday afternoon by Rev.

Geo. F. Duffy. Interment was in Hope cemetery. PACIFIC TRAIN NEXT SUNDAY.

The New St. Louis-Denver Train Said to lie a Sure Thine Schedule Not Yet Out. Agent John Scott, of the Missouri Pacific, informs the Herald that the new fast train, about which there has been a great deal of discussion in weeks past, will go on next Sunday for its first trip. The schedule will be out in a day or two. The time for Ottawa will be about as previously announced east-bound at 7 a.

and west-bound at 9 p. m. Whether or not the train will make the Kansas City trip in two hours, as has been stated, is not known. The prospect of a Kansas City train on the Pacific opens some interesting, if not attractive, possibilities for Ottawa. The Santa Fe, it is said, will not consent to lose any of its Kansas City business, even if it be necessary to cut down the running time to the city over that road; or if another train proves to be necessary to hold the business it will, according to railroad rumor, be put on.

There may be a rate fight which will materially reduce the price of Kansas City transportation. Ottawa will be considerably the loser by any great reduction in Kansas City rates.

The worms have gone, or are going. Trees which a few days ago were alive with the pest are now nearly deserted, and the vast colonies which have been swarming over porches and walks and, in fact, over people are now out of sight. The worms have gone into the ground. It need not be supposed that the town is done with the plague, for the worm3 that have gone will be speedily transformed into bugs and millers, to supply the trees with eggs for another crop. As the Herald has repeatedly stated, the town's immunity from the pest depends upon the protection of the tree trunks, by means of tarred cloths, or bands of cotton.

These should be applied this fall. There is a pretty well founded opinion that some of the bugs oome out at that time. With a good shower soon it is believed that the many bare and apparently lifeless trees about town would be cleared up and again leaf out. A second crop of leaves can likely be depended upon this reason, but it is hardly probable that the trees could stand many repetitions of the worm pest. A rain will take away, for the present, the recollections and reminders of the worms.

But don't let that rain run into your cistern. Speaking of the pest last Tuesday Mr. P. Shiras said: "We must take some united action against this plague or else lose property that has cost us thousands of dollars. Our trees cannot stand another year of the worms, to say nothing of the terribly unpleasant features of their presence.

I favor calling a public meeting. Let us gather all the information possible at that time and let each ward have an organization to superintend preventive measures. Let the work be subdivided into blocks, and let us see to it that iff' every elm tree in town is provided wich the proper protection. Where property owners are not able to look after the matter let the committee take charge, and let us see to it that none of the female bugs get into our trees to provide for next year's worm crop. The time to act is now, while people realize the damage done by the worms." FOUR MONTH'S FOR ADULTERY Homewood Young Man Pleads Guilty of Intimacy With His Wife's Youeg Sister.

By a quicl revolution of the wheels of justice, Carl Temple, of Homewood, is in jdil to serve four months for adultery. Temple pleaded guilty to being criminally intimate with his wife's 6ister, Lydia Duvall, a 15 year- old-girl. Monday afternoon Otis Duvall, a brother of the girl, together with the girl's uncle, came to Ottawa accompanying the young lady and made a complaint to County Attorney Branson. Warrant was at once Issued for Temple and he was brought in Monday evening by Deputy Sheriff Costigan. Temple was thoroughly frightened when he came in and he willingly pleaded guilty to the charge of adultery.

He was taken before Justice Bobbins, who sentenced him to four months in jail. The same charge was necessarily brought against the girl, but it was dismissed. Temple began serving his term Tuesday. He is 22 years old and is a coal miner. Him self and wife have lived with the Du vails for some time since their marriage.
