TheFuItonCountyNews McConnellsburg, Pa. i j HUNTING WORK IN SUMMER. A graduate of the University ot Minnesota has asked the New York Poet and the Chlctigo Tribune to air DU reasons why commencement should be held In the fall Instead ot In June. He left school In June wltb euch honors as Phi Beta Kappa dang ling from his sheepskin, but, like Daw on, '11, says be has found no worn yet He blisters the paper with a scorching argument that summer Is not the psychological time to find em ployment, tut suppose this young man lyid been released from the class room and campus along In September and bad to trail the Jobless route for the following six months, would he not, along about the holidays, deplore a bleak world's unkind worldllness? Would be not prefer to be knee deep In summer, when. If he had to remain Idle, be could at least retain a degree of physical comfort? The trouble with too many of these present-day graduates Is that they emerge from the dear old alma mater thinking destiny bas a greater career canred out than Is really In store for them; they are not willing to begin at the bottom, says the Indianapolis Star. Scholastic training Is the greatest as set a young man can carry as be strikes out for himself, but with It he must have the determination to begin with little things If lie hopes ultimate ly to reach greater things. A college degree Is not always a passport to the presidency of a big Industrial corpora tion, though It Is ort en times a condi tion precedent. Following the store robbery and shooting of a policeman in Cleveland liy a boy, Inflamed by stories of Wild West life and highwaymen, a council man of that city bas Introduced an ordinance prohibiting the sale ot trashy and Immoral books to the youth. There should be such legisla tion In every city, says the Ohio State Journal. We spend millions to edu cate a boy rlgbt; why not do some thing to keep blm from being educated wrong? We have laws to prevent peo ple from poisoning their bodies; why Dot a regulation to restrain them from poisoning their minds? To give a boy a book that will make a highwayman of him is a black offense that should not be permitted. It is an attack on aoclety that society should not tol erate. We are greatly excited upon the question what schoolbooks shall be furnished the children. We should be a great deal more excited upon the question of keeping harmful books away from them. Ordinances are need ed for this purpose. There Is a vast amount of bad citizenship made by bad books, and there are stacks of bad boys. It is a base libel on the American ben to charge that she could lay about twice as many qtgs as she does every rear, and Is therefore slothful. It is unbelievable that the American Poul try association Is responsible for this reflection on her powers. The truth Is, the hen's egg output is automatic, being regulated by the treatment ber owners give ber. On a proper diet. wlch Includes shell-making material, she works with great diligence, ac cording to her breed. If she is expect ed tc pick up a living about the barn yard and to keep herself warm in ex poted winter quarters, ber tally nat vrally suffers. The ben Is a gold mine only when her owner co-operates with ber. The new minister of war In France, M. Messlmy, is growing unpopular with the French officers. Taking an Illustrious American exemplar, he bas Issued an order that the examination for promotion to generalship shall in clude severe physical teBts, and an other by which corps commanders are to report officers who are unfit to take the field. Any one who bas seen an army review in Paris, sty July 14, and observed the fat generals Jolting like Jelly in tbclr saddles, will sym pathize with M. Messlmy's efforts. Every dweller In tropical or semi tropical countries knows that windows and doors should be closed In the early hours of the morning, and not opened again until sunset If the house is to be kept reasonably cool throughout tha day. They are opened widely enough to the breezes of the night, but dark blinds and closed shutters are the se cret of keeping the temperature low. However, one can never convince an Englishman of this fact unless be also bas Been Its demonstration abroad. An Interesting sight In London Is one of the great periodical sales ot raw skins and furs held at a fur warehouse in the city. The magnitude of the trade and the vast amount ot money involved would surprise any one who visited one of these sales for the first time. At the premises in Great Queen street one can wander from floor to floor piled with thou aands upon thousands of skins until one begins to worker wbere all the creatures they once clothed lived. A baby of four months was one ot the passengers in the German Zep pelln airship, the youngest on record.

It bas been found that Russian ca- Tlar will kill cholera germs. It is cheaper, however, to hire two doo- tors. JEERED 10 FLY BURNS 10 DEATH Frank Miller, a Young Aviator, Meets His Doom. CROWD CALLS HIM COWARD Paopla on the Fair Grounds at Day tor, 0., See the Man Enveloped In Flamaa From the Blazing Gtsollne Tank, Dayton, 0. Forced Into the air by Jeers by thousands who called him a coward, Frank H. Miller, aged 23, a Toledo (O.) aviator, shot into the sky at twilight Friday evening and at the height of 200 feet was burned to death before the eyes of the ter rified spectators on the Miami Coun ty Fair Grounds, at Troy, north of here. Miller had circled the racetrack and was just starting on a spiral glide into a neighboring cornfield when something went wrong. He could be seen making a frantic at tempt to get his machine under con trol, when suddenly the whirring of the propellers ceased. The craft then dropped like a shot for a dis tance of 50 feet. A tiny blue flame was emitting from the engine and in an Instant the gasoline tank exploded. The machine was wrecked by the Impact and debris was hurled hundreds of feet In all directions, what remained of the machine and Its driver burn ing almost to a crisp bb they dropped rapidly to the earth. It was Miller's second night or the day and the fifth and last of the week. In a short flight shortly af ter noon his machine acted un steadily and he did not care to go up. The crowd jeered him in the afternoon when he said he would not make a flight and In the evening he went into the air. "Let her go, I'll be glad when this Is over," he shout ed to his mechanician. Miller used a Strobel biplane. BITTER ON DR WILEY'S FOES La Follette Calls frr D imltnl of all engaged In Case. Madison, Wis. In a bitter edi torial in the laBt Issue of La Fol letto's magailne, Senator Ia Follette demands the retirement of the plot ters who sought to oust Dr. Harvey W. Wiley. In part he writes: "The charge against Wiley was a pretext to get the vigilant and honest chief chemist. It collapsed under the broadside of publicity. Solicitor McCabe must go. "Secretary Wilson may be forced to retire. But it would be a sorry perversion of Justice to drop Wilson and keep Wlckersham. Wilson has to his credit years of service in the upbuilding of agriculture. Wicker sham has not a single achievement to commend him to the public. Fair dealing to the public demands that all Dlotters. high and low, be removed from the positions of honor and trust which they have be smirched." RISE IN FOOD STUFFS. This Tim It Is B imid In Canada. on Result Chicago. Foodstuffs which might have been affected by an Influx of Canadian products had Laurier and his government not been defeated in Canada Thursday, rose sharply in priceB In all American supply centers Friday. Wheat led the advance and was followed late In the day by flour, when millers ignored their previous prlco lists Rnd adjusted their quota tions to figures more commensurate with the advanced cost of the grain staple. Oats, too, felt the effect of the Canadian vote and as a result con sumers may expect soon to pay In creased prices for breakfast foods. The Initial meal of the day, In fact, seems destined to bear the brunt of higher living costs within the next few months, as It needed only to day's developments In the trading pits to add force to the recent ad vances in coffee and sugars. The consumer's toast and biscuit wheat cakes and porridge. It Is probable, will but add to the woes of the housekeeper. Sherman Will Recover. San Jose, Cal. The condition of the Rev.

A PEST THAT NOW INFESTS THE COUNTRY X WtoJ.);- IT IS" ifnnvrtrM t" BIGGEST GF TRUSTS YIELDS Billion-dollar Steel Corporation Punning to Dlsoive Problem a Difficult On. New York. It was reported here on excellent authority that the mat ter of dissolving and reorganiilng the I'nited States Steel Corporation Is re ceiving the earnest attention of the Department of Justice and the legal representatives of the so-called "Billion-dollar Trust. ' There is ground also for the assertion that the Steel Corporation Is making a strenuous effort to meet the demands of the government, but by reason of the complexity of the situation little headway has yet been made. Chairman E. H. Gary declined to discuss the status of affairs, anu Francis Llndo Stetson, the corpora tion's general counsel, would not af firm. nor deny the report that nego tiations looking to a voluntary disso lution are contemplated. To those who have followed the operations of the I'nited States Steel Corporation since Its Inception a de cade ago the work of disintegrating and reorganizing the largest indus trial combination ever organized rep resents a task of titanic proportions. Many of the subsidiaries which help ed to make up the corporation have lost practically all semblance of their original selveB, and In the opinion of dispassionate observers It would be well-nigh impossible to restore original equities. It is a matter of common knowl edge that a large part of the $500, 000,000 common stock originally rep resented little more than bonuses, or water. On the other hand, It has been admitted by government Investi gators that much of this Inflated value has been replaced In recent years by moneys taken out of earn ings. In fact, the report of the De partment of Commerce and Labor has practically fixed upon a value of $50 for the common shares, because of the millions put into new con struction, betterment, depreciation, etc. EROTHER KILLS BROTHER.

Hi Vf ''A .. ---: v. '-rf-. Laurier Government Defeated by Canadians. BORDEN WILL BE PREMIER Indications That tha Opposition Will Have a Majority In Parliament Laurier F.lteen Years Premier. NEW PARLIAMENT. The new Parliament will be made up about as follows: Province. Lib. Con. Ontario 13 70 Quebec 36 27 Nova Scotia 10 8 New Brunswick 8 & P. E. 1 2 2 Manitoba 1 9 Saskatchewan 7 3 Alberta 1 Brit. Columbia 0 6 Totals 81 131 Opposition, majority, 60. Montreal. The Laurier govern ment and reciprocity suffered an overwhelming defeat in the Canadian elections held Thursday. By a veritable political landslide the Liberal majority of 43 was swept away and the Conservative party secured one of the heaviest majori ties, upward of 60, that any Cana dian party has ever had. Seven cabinet ministers, who had served with Premier Laurier were among the defeated candidates. The Liberals lost groupd In practically every province of the Dominion. Where they won their majorities were small. Where the Conservatives won their majorities were tremendous. Ontario, the leading province of Canada, declared almost unanimously against the ad ministration and reciprocity. Robert L. Borden, leader of the Conservative party, will shortly be come the prime minister of Canada. He will be supported in Parliament by a working majority of members far more than umple for his pur poses. The government defeat means that the Fleldlng-Knox reciprocity agreement, ratified by the American Congress In extra session, will not be introduced when the Twelfth Par liament assembles next month and that a revised basis of trade with the I'nited States, looking to closer com mercial relations, will not be pos sible in the Immediate future. The Conservatives are committed to a policy of trade expansion within the empire and a closed door against the United States. Although re-elected In two constit uencies In Quebec, the defeat of the Liberal party also means the retire ment from public life of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who for nearly two decades has directed the destinies of the Dominion.

Ik CANADA VOTES NO ON RECIPROCITY BUTCHERED IN THEIR BEDS Two Fml las Exterminated at Col orado SprlngaHaads Smashed Whh Ax. Colorado Springs, Col. Butchered In their beds by some person as yet unknown, who used an axe, the bodies of six persons, three in each of two neighboring houses, were found here Wednesday.- The heads of all the victims had been smashed In and the appearance of the bodies Indicated that they had been dead several days, und that death came while they slept. A report Bays that the murderer has been caught and that he has con fessed, but this Is denied by the po lice olllclals, who, it Is Intimated, fear a lynching might follow such an an nouncement. An axe which had been loaned to Mrs. Henry F. Wayne, one of the victims, by J. R. Evans, a neighbor, last week, was found blood stained by Mrs. Evans on Monday near the back door of the Wayne home. No attention was paid to this fact, however, as It was thought the axe had been used In killing chick ens. The dead: Mrs. Alice May Burnham, wife of A. J. Burnham, cook at the Modern Woodmen Sanitarium. Alice, aged six, and John, aged three years, their two children. Henry F. Wayne, a consumptive, until recently a patient at the Wood men Sanitarium. Mrs. Wayne and iier one-year-old baby girl. The Burnham house Is situated at Dale street and Harrison Place, and the two houses next to It on Dale Btreet are vacant. Directly In the rear Is the Wayne home and close to It Is that of Evans. The discovery of the bodies was made by a neighbor who called at the Burnham home. Not getting any response and noticing a strong odor, she forced an entrance. The bodies of Mrs. Burnham and those of her two children were found in their beds, which were covered with blood, and the walls and celling were also spattered. The woman rushed to the s-reet and gave the alarm. Instlnctlv ly a dozen persons went to the Wayne house, where there had been no signs of life since Sunday and the same I terrible scene was presented. In bed ! were the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. I Wayne and their baby, all horribly i mangled as In the case of the bodies In the Burnham house. That such a crime had been rom ' mitted In a thickly settled neighbor hood and left unrevealed for three days Is regarded as Incredible. Not even a footprint is to be found on the floor of either house, and no one could be found who had seen any one about the premises since Sun day when , all the murdered persons at different times were In a neigh boring grocery.
