The "Ivory* is a favorite shaving soap because It
makes a profuse rich lather, which softens the beard to
be removed and leaves the skin unharmed.
It costs about one-fifth as much as the so-called
shaving soaps and many who have used it for this
purpose for years, will not have any other.
The vegetable oils of which Ivory Soap is made, fit it for many special uses
for which other soaps are unsafe or unsatisfactory.

Kill Himself, and Makes h Des
perate Kimhi on Officers Who At
tempt to lntc-rl'ere in Him Seltf-
Dectroyinfc Desire.
Officers &.1 the central station had. a
desperate fight yesterday afternoon with
a half crazed prisoner who gashed his
throat with a tazur in an effort to end |
his life and fished wildly at those vvho
attemi ted to lisarm him. A blow on the
arm from a club in the hands of De
tective Sweeney finally knocked, the
razor from the prisoner's grasp, whan ho
was Bubdued and restrained from further
injuring himself.
The would-be suicide waa Janior Simp- i
son, whom the poMce pay has frequently
t>pov, uiJer arrest for minor offenses. He !
is a young man and claims to be a '
plumber. Simpson walked into the cen- j
tral station shortly after 3 o'clock yes- j
terday afternoon and asked to be locked
up. Ho told Sergt. Wright he had be. n
drinking mid wanted to be cared for.
Simpson was charged on the tab with
drunkciuiess and searched. His pockets
yielded in th 9 way of weapons a knife.
n pair of scissors and a razor. For a
time Simpson remained quiet In a cell up
stairs. Detective Murnane had occasion
to visit the corridor shortly before 4
o'clock, and was startled to see Simpson
sitting on the bunk in his cell, waving a
razor and slashing away at his throat.
Simpson had already cut a gash In his
neck and was bleeding profusely. De
tective Murnane ran down stairs and g-o>;
the coll key, at the sams time informing
other o«Hcers about the ttatlon what was
going on in Simpson's cell. Detective
Sweeney. Officer Xewoome, Sergt. \Vrig-],i
and Jailer Hauls hurried back'to thwart
the would-be pnicldo. When the ceil
door was unlocked, Simpson began rag
ing like a maniac md declared he would
kill any on< who touched him. The of
ficers started to rush at him, but a vic
ious swish of the bloody razor close to
the foremost one halted them. As they
paused Simpson brought the razor across
his own throat a'second time, enlarging
the first wound. Realizing that some
thins must be quickly done. Decretive
Sweeney seized a slick used in propping
up the corridor window and went at
Simpson, who lunged forward, making
a eavage ewing at the detective's head.
Detective Sweeney dodged the razor and
with a heavy blow frjm th« dub for the
moment disabled Simpson's right arm.
Simpson dropped the razor, which Jailer
Ilairis kicked aside, and then ensued a
desperate struggle with Simpson trying
to overcome the five officers. He fought
like a madman and asserted an abnormal
strength, tossing ihe policemen about like
corks, until by v concentrated attack
they finally pinioned him, to the floor.
Still Simpson continued raving and fight
ing, so that it became necessary to man
acle his lower limbs and to place hand
cuff? upon him.
Assist;)!,t City Physician Weirick ex
amined Simpson's wounds, and ordered
the young- fellow to the county Jail, where
he was placed in the padded cell. Dr.
Weirick says Simpson cut himself badly,
but severed none of the main arteries
end will probably quickly recover from
the wounds.
The raz.T with which Simpson attempt
ed to kill himself was overlooked when
the prisoner was searched. The police
say Bimtreon doubtless purposely con
cealed ihs second razor with Hie inten
tion of effecting a sensation in his cell.

RUSH AT THE AOORS.
Bis One When Lennon & Gibbons'
Store Wn* Reopened.
Lennon & Gibbons' big store opened
again yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock,
and enjoyed a rush of business which
continued throughout the afternoon. The
damage done by the fire has been tem
porarily repaired and the force is again
| ready to care for the crowds. Before 12
I o'clock, both entrances were hidden in
■ the crowd and several hundred people
w< re waiting for the doors to open. The
j floor walkers, clerks and department
managers were kept busy caring for the
customers and sales were brisk, though
the course of business suffered an inter
ruption. All goods have been re-marked
and an immense amount of labor in rear
ranging goods accomplished.
Detective Campbell'* Condition.
Detective Donald Campbell, of the cen
tral station, who was taken suddenly ill
Sunday with an attack of heart trouble
was much worse yesterday. He rested
comfortably throughout Monday, but yes
terday had another attack of severe pains
about the heart and grew, very weak. Two
physicians were In attendance upon him
yesterday afternoon. Last evening De
tective Campbell's condition was reported
to be not encouraging.

The toast, "The Great Swamp Fight "
was responded to by Jacob Stone. \V H
Llghtner responded to the toast,"Teutonic
Influences in Colonial Times." Said he:
"Investigation has led me to believe that
we do not fully appreciate all of the ele
ments which make this nation. It is com
posed chiefly of two elements, and all
other elements enter into it in ao minor
a degree that they may be diregarded.
These two elements are the Anglo-Saxon
and the Teutonic. The Anglo-Saxon is
but a part of the Teutonic. It Is a kin
dred branch. When I say Teutonic I
mean not merely German; I mean those
kindred Germanic nationalities — the
Dutch, the German, the Swiss and the
Swede; and If you will make an Investi
gation of the statistics it will show that
90 or 95 per cent of the population that
occupied this land before the Revolution
and after the Revolution consisted of
those two elements, and they are in equal
proportion. Providence seemed to guide
the development of this country. It was
expored and settled when the situation in
Europe was unique. Our settlement:-
from 1617 to the time of the Revolution
covered mainly a period in Europe when
religious sentiment and religious perse
cution were the cause of the most de
structive wars that modern times have
seen, and which drove to this country not
the surplus population, but perhaps the
best population in Europe. It is not
claimed that the Germans settled this
country or dominated it; it is merely sug
gested that the Germans had an influence
which perhaps has not been fully appre
ciated. They were the most learned na
tion in Europe. The first printer that
ever landed in the United States was a
German. It was nautical Instruments,
devised ..and invented by the Germans,
that enabled the early navigators to
reach these shores. A remarkable fea
ture of the German settlements in this
country is that they fell In very rap!d!y
with the English system. They adopted
the English language, the English litera
ture and generally the English religion.
If this nation is to have a great future
it will be owing to the fact that it is
the successor of the Germanic nation rep
resented by Germany. Holland. England,
Switzerland and perhaps Sweden."
• • •
Rev. James D. Paxton. of House of
Hope Presbyterian church, responded to
the toast. "E Pluribus Unum." He was
glad that this nation Is not wholly Teu
tonic, not wholly Dutch, not wholly
English. "I am glad we have a* mixture.
It has proved r decidedly good experi
ment. Tt ha? been one of the problems of
the economists from the very beginning
how all these varying elements wer?: to
be combined together into ore har
monious whole. And when the man who
invented the motto of our republic. "E
Pluribus Vnum," T think it was chiefly
with the hope,and not with any certainty,
that the motto would prove applicable to
all times. Certainly if he could have
foreseen the future, foreseen the time
when foreigners would eoine to our
scores? a million strong every year, I am
sure that his discretion would have led
him to turn to another Latin word for
our motto. But as we look back upon
history now we can see that be chose
well, that the motto was applicable. We
have been a unit. And nor at th s
vantage point between the past and the
future, looking back we can tee that the
Republic ha? been a unit, and looking for
ward we sometimes have our d<.ubts.
The unifying influence has always been
some central, all pervasive idea. Tn the
early time? of the colonies the one idea
all alonsj the frontier was to keep off
the Indian, and that helped to mako all
the colonies a unit. A little liter when
thp old country began tc interfere a trifle
t> ( intimately with colonial matters, the
one unifying thought was. What shall
we <jo to p*vs:>rve our liberties? What
was Ihe result? The Revolution broke
on. Naturally enough the colonies unit
ed. E Pluribus I'num' applied then.
After the revolution was ;i success what
was the unifying power? To Bhpw to the

■vrorld that tho colonies ha 4 X\o\ Ijeen
fighting for nothing:, to sfhow to the World
that they deserved their independence, to
prove to the world that they could tako
care of themselves, and so they began to
develop a government, every man trying
to do his best. And then along about
1840 and 1859 and 18C0 there began those
trying tlmeß of contest between sections.
Others abroad looking upon the combat
which at last ceased to be at all amicable.
said: "The Union Is to fail t o pieces,
the South Is to depart from the North.
E Pluribus TTnum will become a motto
of the past.' But ln reality we v.ere Btlll
a unit. We had this family discussion,
which became exceedingly emphatic, but
still there Is (something that Is unifying
even ln family discussion, In family
problems, ln difficulties which are to be
settled within ourselves and ln which we
will havo no foreign Interference. The
difficulty was sottled. Once more we re
alized that the mo-tto "One made out of
many" would continue to be applicable.
The unifying Influence today Is our na
tional pride."
Rev. E. C. Mitchell spoke ln response
to the toast "Our Patriotic Societies and
Thc-lr OonUibutions to Our .Country."
Ho said: "There are p€i-sons in our com
munity who ara disposed to made light
of our hereditary patriotic associations
and to regard them as mutual admiration
Hocietios. But the critics fall to appre
ciate the actual conditions and the pre
vailing spirit animating our societies. As
a matter of fact some of our ancestors
were men and women of great force of
Character and devoted to their country,
and they accomplished great rebults. l>y
keeping before us the greatness of their
achievements we are reminded of our
duty to emulate their worthy examples."

CIS'FOM VS. CONSTITUTION.
State to Appeal the Kansilieo Connty
Sonool ('use.
Attorney General Douglas will take an
appeal for the state in the case Involving
the state apportionment of school funds,
ln which Judge Crosby, of Hastings, de
cided that the legislature cannot Impose
conditions upon the distribution of so
much of the school fund as comes from
the Interest on proceeds of state land
sales. The question is a somewhat com
plicated one. For'thirty-three years the
state has required that to become eligible
to a share of the apportionment it is
necessary that five months' school be
held, and" every child attend forty days
before the district is eligible for the aid.
The constitution, however, says that the
apportionment shall be made for every
scholar between five and twenty-one,
without Imposing any conditions. Attor
ney General Douglas, however, cited In
his argument before the district court the
decision of the supreme court ln a tax
case where a practice had been in vogue
for forty years that did not exactly con
form to the law, and the court held that
the practice of forty years was birfVlng.
The ease will be taken before the su
preme court and argued before the April
term. .
