in the senate Vice President Fair
inks presided, the organization of the
mate being continuous. Rev. Edward

in of the senate, offered prayer, the

Louced a quorum present, The

las then taken up, after which Sena
ir Hale, the master of ceremonies,
lered the usual resolution directing
te appointment of a committee to act
ith a committee of the house to wait
on President ttosevelt and inform
p that congress was assembled and
epared to receive any communica
in he might be pleased to make.
The coming together for the first
me of the men who have been elect
to the senate and the house, about
.
e hundred of whom have not before
rved in congress, made the occasion
ie of particular interest.
The glad hand was extended to the
ur democratic representatives from
ilahoma who were sworn in. Sena
rs Gore and Owen will not take their
ats in that body, however, until the
rmal election by the legislature when
meets in January.
The striking scenes of the day were
the house of representatives, where
ie formal selection of Joseph Cannon
i again be speaker of that body and
le designation by the democrats of
ff. John Sharp Williams as their lead
| were occasions for ovations for
»se gentiemen.
[The vast hall of the house of repYe
ntatives rang with cheers of re
Iblicans and democrats for their lead
p, and the speaker received as warm
welcome from members of the nil
prity as he did from his own party,
accepting the speakership Mr. Can
In made a brief but feeling address.
When the adoption of rules for tho
kernmeiit of the house during the
ktieth congress came up the rules of
p last congress were opposed by

that oposition by democrats and
I a single republican, Mr. Cooper,

I hut, after a somewhat acrimonious
peussion, they were adopted by .a

EARLY KANSAS JUSTICE.
How a Murderer Was Safely Landed
in Dodge City Jail.
G ‘ ^ 00 ^’ of Dod a° City, who
visited , friends in Garden City this
week, first went to Dodge Citv thirty- yeS
lour year. „ a 8e v.™i
hunted buffalo on the plains. He was
also justice of the peace and Coroner
for several years in the early days
and these official positions, says the
Garden City Telegram, gave him fre¬
quent opportunities to Bee some ot
tho thrilling events that'happened in
the west Mr. Cook relates one lnci
dent of the palmy days of Dodge City
that was not unusual at the time.
“Mvsterioim Mysterious nava” Dave had been arrest
ed ror a murder which had been com
mitted in the town and was brought *
before Jnd*?* 8® Uook to v have 0 „„ v._ his pre
liminary hearing. Dave had a num
ber of friends in the town and it had
been ueen nimrmj rumored that it i, made i no differ- ,
ence if he was bound over; that they
would release him as soon as the nre- 1
liminary ,, , was over. ‘‘I had heard this
talk,” said Mr. Cook, “and when I
took my place in the court room I
laid two revolver down on the table
before me, within easy reach of eith
ed hand. Both were cocked and both
ready for action. The court room was
full and a great many of Dave’s
friends were there. We heard the evi¬
dence and just before I gave my de
clsion I said, ‘Every one will keep
his seat until this court is dismissed.
14 4 The sheriffs are instructed to
shoot any one that disobeys this or¬
der.’ Then I bound the prisoner over
to the district court for first degree
murder, without ball. The sheriff
took the prisoner to jail and returned
before a person left his chair. There
were three or four deputy sheriffs In
the crowd and the order would have
been carried out If any one had at
tempted to disobey it.”
NOT BOILED.
'What, a dollar a pound for tea!”
exclaimed the customer. Isn’t that
too steep?”
"Yes, ma’am, »» answered the hon
est grocery man, < ■ all tea is too steep.”

CONTAGION A QUESTION QF
PREVENTION.
Sinks, drains, eating and cooking
utensils, sick room linen and clothing
frequently carry the dreaded disease
germ unnoticed by tne household.
Thorough and hygienic cleansing is
the best safeguard against infection,
and such a safeguard is found in
the universal household necessity_
Borax.
This simple preventive carries in it¬
self, disinfecting qualities which en
ter the fabric or act upon the article
to be cleansed In a hygienic manner,
. eliminating unwholesome
every prop¬
erty, rendering it contagion-proof,
while at the same time Borax is of
itself as harmless as salt.
Unlike most disinfectants which de¬
pend upon their strength of odor or
harmful-to-the-system qualities, to ar¬
rest or prevent contagion, Borax is
Nature’s remedy, being easy to ob¬
tain and easy to apply, a simple solu¬
tion in hot water being all the appli¬
cation necessary and requiring no
prescription, it can be obtained from
any grocer or druggist in convenient,
economical household packages.
In addition to its disinfecting quall
ties, Borax is especially a household
| necessity, and can be used for soften¬
