MURDERER'S
BROTHER AIDS
Lewis Butts' Body Brought to Baker
for Autopsy.
Baker, Aug. 211. Driving by auto
from Juntura, as soon as he learned
of the arrest of his brother, J. F. Al
len for the murder of Lewis Butts at
Hereford, W. P. Allen, banker and
stockman of the Juntura section, ar
rived in iBaker yesterday afternoon
and spent several hours t in private
consultation with his brother in the
county jail.
This morning he put in a large
share of his time at a local garage,
overseeing repairs to his car which
had been badly battered in the long
trip, and this afternoon was again a
visitor at the jail from 1 o'clock until
late in the afternoon. He intends to
remain in Baker until after the pre
liminary hearing in justice court.
Just when this will be held, is now
uncertain, for District Attorney God
win is out of the city and will prob
ably not return until Friday. It is
believed that the examination will be
on Saturday.
Funeral services for Allen's victim
were held this morning from the
Welch chapel, Rev. A. R. Willett of
Calvary Baptist church, officiating. In
terment was made at Mt. Hope ceme
tery. Among those present were the
father of the murdered man, Jacob
Butts of Hereford, a sister, Mrs. An
ke Vedder of Freewater, a brother,
Lester Butts of Hereford, and a cou
sin, Ida Butts of Baker.
Most' of the relatives reached here
yesterday, being summoned to Baker
shortly after the tragedy.
An autopsy performed by Dr. 0. M.
Dodson Saturday afternoon, after the
body had been brought to Baker, re
vealed two wounds, one made direct
ly through the heart, the other with
in an inch and a half of the main
wound, and apparently caused by a
fragment of the shell.
Two rifles, one of them the 20-25
caliber weapon which caused Butts'
death, and a shotgun, found in the Al
len cabin, were brought into Baker by
Corner West.
A HISTORICAL OLD TREE.
Invention Renders Torpedo Harmless
New London, Conn., Aug. 13. At-
ter being towed by a power boat
down Long Island bound from
Bridgeport, a thirty-foot raft, with
peculiar looking apparatus aboard,
reached this harbor last night after
breaking loose twice and being nearly
wrecked. The contrivance is a tor
pedo catcher, and will be tested offi
cially at the torpedo station at New
port. i
The torpedo catcher was invented
by Fred Lapan of Milford, Conn. Its.
use by the United States Government,
which now seems assured, will be the
means of saving many torpedoes
during practice, and the inventor
claims it will protect absolutely all,
ships using it from damage by tor
pedoes. The catcher is an arrangement of
half-inch wire cables in net form on
an "L" shaped sliding steel frame,
and is hung from the ship's side
about twenty-five feet away. As the.
torpedo hits the net its head is held
and the striking releases hydraulic
pressure which raises the lower
frame of the catcher and rear end of
the torpedo above water .allowing the
propeller to spin without harm.

On PlanUd on Long Island by Sana
tor Rufus L. King.
Perhaps the most historic tree in the
vicinity of Jamaica Is that on the
grounds of King manor, In front of the
east entrance, planted over a hundred
years ago, It Is believed, by Senator
Bmfus L. King himself. That tbe dis
tinguished contemporary of Washing
ton and Jefferson and Hamilton and
brilliant defender of federal principles
planted this tree with bis own bands
was testified to by the late Hon. John
A. King, grandson of Iiufus L. King, In
a conversation be bad on tbe grounds
of the manor on tbo occasion of tbe
transfer of tbe historic property to the
village of Jamaica.
John A. King, In talking with Judge
Fleming at that time, pointed to tbis
old sycamore or button wood tree and
remarked that bis eminent grandfather
bad planted it He said, "I think I'll
have a plate put on the tree to perpetu
ate tbe fact" Whether he ever did so
or not, there Is no plate there at the
present time.
There are several big holes In the
trunk, which have been filled In with
cement to preserve It At one time It
sheltered a doghouse which stood In
the bole at the bottom of the trunk. It
Is related that In the days of Iiufus
King and bis son, Governor King, there
was a bell on the tree, which was rung
when people appeared at tbe gate to
give notice that they stood waiting to
be admitted. Tbe tree belongs to tbe
plane tree family. It Is doubtless one
of the finest specimens of this family
to bo found In this country. Long Is

Colonel B. wus the proprietor of a
widely known old bouse in tbe south
which three-quarters of a century ago
bad earned Its reputation as a well
conducted tavern.
When Cbnrlcs Dickens came to Amer
ica be stopped at this southern bouse.
He was hardly settled in his room be
fore Colonel B. was at the door. He
assured blm that his horses, bis wines,
all tbe lavish hospitality of a state
famed for its generosity, stood at the
convenience of the distinguished vis
itor. Dickens received tbo proffer coldly.
In London one did uot accept a tavern
keeper as a sociul equul. So It was
that he returned the courteous offer by
saying that when ho wished tbo serv
ices of the innkeeper he would send for
him.
For sixty seconds Colonel B. stood si
lent, bis great face growing redder all
the while. Finally he stretched out a
long arm toward Dlekeus.
"You go, sir!" he stammered. "And
do not stand upon the order of your
going."

Social Structure.
What is a social structure? It may
be an ant hill or a democracy. It is
usually composed of a mass of Indi
viduals banded together for mutual
disagreement It is centripetal and
centrifugal. Each Individual would
like to get out of It but he doesn't
know bow. Small masses of individ
uals, also banded together, would like
to get out of It, but tbey don't know
bow. Larger masses of individuals
banded together would like to get rid
of some of the smaller masses, but
they don't know how. Nobody wants
everybody else to stay. Everybody
doesn't want anybody to stay. Tbo
result is tbat nobody can get rid of
anybody.
Hence the social structure. Life.
When you Wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
erally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a. well-known authority.
Meat forms urlo acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re
moving all the body's urinous waste,
elm you have backache, sick headache,
ditzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic- twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you axe obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night
Either consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or get from your pharmacist
about tour ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts Is mode from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize adds in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, effer
vescent lithia-water drink.

Origin of Geometry. 1
There Is little doubt that tbe science
of geometry bad Its origin In Egypt
Tbe annual overflow of tbe Nile wiped
out all landmarks and boundaries, and
some reliable means of measuring the
earth was an absolute necessity;
hence the rise of geometry, which
means enrtb measurement From all
accounts tbe philosopher Tbalcs took
the science from Egypt to Greece,
where it was greatly Improved and
carried very near the perfection It
finally reached through the discoveries
of tbo celebrated Descartes of the sev
enteenth century.
