A. May Help. Ira Anderson, a prominent farmer living about eight miles north of Sa-liua, had a line horse and buggy stolen in' Salina Saturday night, and up to the present time no cine to the thief has been found. Mr. Anderson drove to Salina in the afternoon and tied his horse on the vacant lot just south of the Elks' home on North Seventh street.

He went to get his rig to start for home and found it gone, the perpetrator having cut the hitching strap and left part of it hanging to the fenee. The outfit, according to Mr. Anderson, was stolen some time between 9:30 and 10 o'clock. The officers were immediately notified and instituted a thorough search for the stolen property, but no trace of it was to be found in Salina. The officers in tire surrounding country were notified and given a description of.

the mare and the buggy. The mare is a -bay 12 years old, with a single harness, and a Columbus buggy with a black body, red running gear and green cushions. Mr. Anderson is not a member of the Anti-Horse Thief association in this but if his "property is not recovered immediately, it is probable that tbe, association members will take a hand in the. search.

It was also shown that the brain was cracked, in course of removal. 1 Hektoen 's. book was urgent in its warning regarding thawing out the body with water. The, law of Germany prohibiting such action was cited by the text-Only the accidental severing of the base of the brain prevented using the knife, said the witness.

On direct examination the wtness said but one of Chrisman Swope's lungs was congested Today said both were affected; fWIID Following the plea of the defense for the court to rescind the order for sessions, Jndge Latshaw this afternoon agreed that until further notice the regular court hours would be maintained.

In 1TO WAY TO SAVE THE" lOR WARD PASS." RULES FOR FOOTBALL Committee Decides That Faculties of Schools Must Watch the Con- dition of Players. Philadelphia, May 2. The intercollegiate football rules committee adjourned Saturday after announcing two important changes.

These ire the limitation of the forward pass to behind the line of scrimmage and the gaining of eight, yards in three downs instead of ten. Secretary E. K. Hall said that the members of -the committee, after wrestling with the forward pass question two days, trying to find some method to protect the receiver of the pass, had to confess themselves 4 For that reason the restriction was placed upon it. For the same reason the committee was obliged to reduce the distance to be gained in three downs from ten yards to eight.

1 Meet Again May A subcommittee was appointed to work out the details of the changes decided on and to report to the; whole committee by mail, in time for the coming New York meeting, May 13-14. The subcommittee appointed, to suggest a plan to eliminate the dangers incident to scholastic- football came to the conclusion' that, most of the injuries and atalities were the result of a lack of prpper supervisioji by school faculties and games between, teams not properly matched. This' caused recommendations which follow: Faculty Must Supervise. That schedules should be made with the help and supervision of the faculty. 'j.

That contests be limited to one game a "Tha no game be allowed unril the playei's have spent at. least two weeks conditionin2r themselves. "That as far as possible the ages and weights of competing teams should be equal. "That all games should be under the immediate supervision of "sbme member or committee of the faculty with full authority to act for the physical and oral welfare of the players. "That a player should be removed from the game as soon as in the opinion the faculty represeutative? he is being physically overtaxed or incapacitated.

"That all interscholastic; games and games between immature players or between untrained teams, be limited to two halves, 20 minutes or less, with 15 minutes intermission, each half to be divided into two periods of ten minutes each, or less, with-five minutes', intermission. The rules committee is strongly opposed to contests between colleges and preparatory, schools. DON'T WRITE TO THE MARSHAL Anonymous Letters About Dogs Receive No Attention." "It will soon be dog tax time," said Marshal Thorns tax time always means a bunch of grief for some one. If it isn't the poor dog, it 's some negligent owner Avho lets his pet: run ithout a li cense and eollarj and when 'the dog catcher gets the dog the owner a fit because his dog was killed. Here is a question I would like to have some one answer.

Why do persons send anonymous letters to me telling me that Frank.Smith has, a dog that never did wear a license tag! Sometimes when we find the dog mentioned in these letters the brute is wearing a license tag. If persons are interested enough in. dog taxes to write these letters. -without signing' their namesv why can't they call me by. telephone and tell me about their troubles.

Miss Clara Sold-ner, aged 23. years, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Soldner, living four miles' south of Lincoln, was found dead'in her bed room Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. i The general 'opinion is that she committed suicide, as she has always been very healthy and was never known to suffer in the least from heart trouble.

Dr. attending physician, pn first examination found nothing to indicate that Miss Soldner killed herself, and it had not been decided at noon today whether' or not an autopsy would be held to determine the cause of -her death. Miss Soldner was in her usuatgood health. Saturday and was in Lincoln having some dental work done. Saturday night and Sunday morning she complained fo no one of being ill and Sunday morning about 8 :30 went to her room.

vIn the afternoon members, of the family went to call her, and when she did not answer they -went into the bedroom and ound her dead. To all appearances she was merely sleeping. Miss Soldner is said to have been of a very retiring disposition. Heart Failure, Says Doctor. Dr.

Mewlon 'of Lincoln, -who 'was called to see the girl, said this morning. "It was at first thought that the girl killed herself with carbolic acid, but I believe that she died from natural causes. I was unable to find anything which indicated suicide. The girl had had" some trouble with her. heart at previous times, arid I think that heart failure caused her death." There will be no inquest.

Dr. Mewlon said that the relatives had decided that they, did not want' an autopsy performed. 4)-CI- EvPY SOCIETY CDITOn, PHONB 1S4. -Picnic At Oakdale Park.

Three -cars of these shipments were mules, the remainder large horses. Frank Mc Adams, manager of My. Lamer 's business during his absence from the city, stated this afternoon that the shipping was somewhat heavier during the past fifteen days than is the customary run. "Ordinarily most of our shipments are made to the Kansas City mar kets," said Mr. McAdams, "but the East St.

Louis markets have been exceptionality strong recently, which accounts for Mr. Lamer taking his stock so far east. There is at the present time a great demand for, big mules and horses in southern states, and they will be, shipped south from the St Louis market to be there for the harvesting of the crops in the southern states. Only a small "portion of Mr. Lamer 's stock, ho wever, has been shipped away from Salina.

He has; left here at this tinsb! about 200 head '6f horses and mules, 100 of which will be sold at the public sale to be held at the barn on North Ninth street next Saturday beginning at 10 o'clock a. m.

COMET Halley's Astral Air Ship Now Visible In Salina With Naked Eye.

It is believed here that if. the McMtirray deal with the Choctaw and Chickashaw Indians for the sale of coal and asphalt lands belonging to the Indians is be carried thVough, Senator Chester. I. Long be made a millionaire by the deal. 1 McMurray has, bought the interests of his ex-partners, Mansfield and and now Long is mentioned- in the documents as his associate, though in one place Secretary Ballinger re ferred to Long aS McMurray 's attorney.

The deal was that McMurray "should collect 10 per cent of all the money realised from the sale of the lands, including the asphalt and 5oal lands Owned Vs the Indians, and was also to have' l0l per cent of all the money received in case the claim of the two tribes for land in western Oklahoma is allowed. One company in New York-according to mfotrmipiireceiveil by.mem-Jjes:?oI tlte Oklahoma delegation in congress, has arranged to offer thirty million dollars-for the coal soon as the Indians are allowed "to sell. That alone would mean three million dollars for McMurray and his associates, of whom Long is clearly the one who most closely associated with the chief speculators in the deal.
