THE GOOD OLD TIMES When Immigration Poured Into Kansas to Be Renewed. Preliminary Steps Taken For Immense Advertisements O EASTERN PAPERS. Advertising Pays and Live Men Will Prove It. Two Thousand Dollars a Page in Bis Dailies. SOME NOTED WRITERS Are to Be Engaged to Do the Work. The time to properly advertise Topeka and Kansas before the people of the United States and the nations of the world is here, and thia opportunity is not to be neglected. At the Copeland last night a temporary organization waa formed, and it was de cided to proceed at once and to advertise Topeka and Kansas according to the plans suggested by Mr. Thomas Q. Shil linglaw. Mr. Oscar Bischoff was elected presi dent of the temporary organization and Thomas G. Shillinglaw was made tem porary secretary. These gentlemen are not going to boom Texas or Nebraska but Kansas only. Other cities may try to work Topeka to give their exposition a big send off, but this organization is for Kansas and her cities first, last and all the time. Mr. Shillinglaw stated his plan and read letters he had written to and re ceived from the managing editors of the leading newspapers of the country. Mr. Shillinglaw said: "There never was a time when Kansas could be better advertised to the world than now, and I have written to the leading papers of the country to see how much it will coat us to let the world know about us. "I asked the managing editors of the !New York World, Boston Herald, Phil adelphia Press, Cincinnati Enquirer, Chicago Times- Herald, St. Louis Globe Democrat and several other papers what the expense would be. 'The plan 1 proposed was that each paper should send a staff correspondent to Kansas, make a tour of the state and give ns a write-up of about a page, tell ing just what he saw on his trip. This virite-up to be published on some Sun day during the month of September. 'The writeups are to appear on the same day in ail the papers. According to this plan Kansas and her crops would be advertised to the world in papers with a combined circulation of over one mil lion on one day, and I can conceive of no better or more effectual way to let the people know about our state." Mr. Shillinglaw then read letters from the managing editors of the papers he had written to. The managing editor of the New York World said he would be glad to send one of the best men on the editorial staff of the World to make a trip through Kan sas for the purpose of giving a write up of her conditions. lie said the World would pay the ex penses of the correspondent from New ork to Topeka, and pay his regular salary while absent on the work, his traveling and hotel expenses in Kansas to be paid by Kansas business men, who must also pay $2,000 for a page write up in the Sunday World, and for addi tional space at the same rate. He said the circulation of the Sunday W'orld ex ceeds 375,000, and last Sunday it was over 379,000. The Bo3ton Herald wanted $2,160 for a page write up, while the Cliicago Times-Herald oifered to sell its space for $1 an agate line, which figures out $2,100 a page of seven columns. The American Agriculturist offered to send an editorial writer to make a tour of the state, and give a write up of from four to eight pagas in both the American Agriculturist and Orange Judd Farmer if 10,000 copies of the papers will be con tracted for at 5 cents apiece. The New England Homestead of Springfield, Mass., also offered to write up Kansas for a contract to take 2,500 copies at 5 cents each. The following ia the list of papers heard from with their rates for the Kan sas write up: The "World..

Judge John Guthrie suggested that a committee be appointed to draft a cir cular letter to present the plan to the bankers and business men of the state and a committee consisting of Oscar Bischcff T. G. Shillinglaw and Simon Greenspan was appointed to. draft this letter. It is proposed to raise enough money ia Topeka to start thia movement for- ward and interest the people of the state in the enterptise, and at last night's meeting Simon Greenspan gave 100 to wards that part of the movement All of the Topeka banks, the railroads and the big loan companies have be come interested in the plan and have agreed to assist liberally in carrying out the advertising idea. One loan company has already sub scribed $500. It has been proposed to send a circular letter to each of the 700 banks in the state and ask each bank to contribute not less than $10. As each bank would no doubt respond to the call over $7,000 could be raised from that source alone and it is expected that every loan com pany in the state would make its sub scriptions up in the hundreds. The circular letter outlining the ad vertising proposition, will be sent out at ODce and another meeting will be held at the Copeland next Monday evening to form a permanent organization and de cide on further action. As this is to be not a strictly Topeka affair but a Kansas movement, the State Journal lias been authorized to extend an invitatien to interested business men in other towns in the state to come to Topeka and assist in the permanent or ganization of this movement next Mon day night. This is not a scheme ta advertise Texas or Caliiorma but Kansas and every county in Kansas and Kansas people ought to and no doubt will pull together to advance the interests of the common wealth. Y.

The ware houses on the Lmon Steamboat com- pany's dock, at the junction of the Mil waukee and Menominee rivers, took fire at 1 o'clock and are now a mass of flames. Three alarms were sent in. The fire has spread to the warehouse of the Anchor Line freight sheds of the Wisconsin Central. Freight cars are burning on the tracks in the yard, and goods are being removed from the stores of John Pritlaf hardware company. There is a high wind and the fire is spreading rapidly. 2:30 p. m. The fire is spreading with fearlul rapidity before a gale from the southwest. It now looks as if west Water street may be swept up to Qrand avenue. The warehouses of the Union Steam boat and Anchor Line are gone, as are also the freight sheds of the Wisconsin Central. The freight yards are a mass of blazing cars. The John Printslaff Hard ware company's house has just taken fire and that immense establishment seems doomed.

COMES BACK. The Doctor's Seasickness Continue After He Gets Back. Dr. A. S. Embree, pastor of "the First M. E. church, arrived in Topeka today from his seven weeks trip abroad. I Dr. Embree stopped over a few days at Lafayette, Ind., on his way from New York, on account of Bickness, but when seen by a State Journal reporter at his home, corner of Seventh and Taylor streets, this afternoon was in good spirits and said he was feeling as well as could be expected under the circumstances. In speaking about his trip and the places he visited, Dr. Embree said: "We had a delightful trip going over, and had it not been for one day, when we were between two icebergs off the coast of New Foundland, we would have had a perfect trip. I lauded at LondondeVy in the north of Ireland, at a most oppor tune time. It was when the excite ment was at its highest We landed about 9 o'clock at night and witnessed the processions of the rival political parties and saw the women. Talk about the women being a factor in Kansas politics, why the women here are not in it all with the women in that country and in fact all over England. Even the ladies of the nobility attend the meetings, ride in carriages in the processions and bestow favors publicly on their favorites. "Although it was 9 o'clock when we landed, it was still light. It seemed strange to me to be able to sit at the win dow and read a paper without artificial light at 9 or ten o'clock at night, but that's the way in that country, and the sun comes up correspondingly early in the morning." Dr. Embree then told about going through Ireland and Scotland, then crossing the channel and going through Germany and Holland, and finally com ing home earlier than he had expected on account of the difficulty in getting passage later. He said, "We had a storm three days coming home, and although I was not really sea sick, I was worse off than the people who were, for my sickness lasted until after I landed. It was just as some old travelers told me it would be." The Epworth league of Dr. Embree's church sent him a large box full of beau tiful cut flowers, with a card enclosed on which was written: "Welcome Home." The flowers were left at the house Tues day morning, the day he was expected home, but they were still fresh when he arrived today. CAN'T GET HOME. Two Hundred Thousand Americans In Europe and no Ships to get Home. London, Aug. 22. This city is crowded with Americans anxious to get home. The passengers who crowded the east bound steamers during May, June and July are attemping to return on the same steamers westbound in a single month. One steamship company tried this week unsuccessfully to accommodate a party of ten sehool teachers, who will be forced to miss the whole of the first month of their term, and probably lose their positions. For the quarter beginning the 1st of May and ending the 1st of August the seven great steamer companies poured Americans into Europe at the rate of about -3,800 a week, or a total roughly estimated at 48,000, Fully 10,000 more were added by the less important lines. Thus about 28,000 were added to the large number of transient Americans al ready in Europe and planning to return in the Autumn, At the outside not over 10,000 of these can possibly finds berths in September, and a careful study made by one of the lines indicates that not less than 20,000 wish to sail during the month. The steamship offices are crowded by anxious applicants for accommodation. The manager of one of the lines has saved the time and temper of his clerks by hanging a placard on his counter, which announces; "The ships of this line, America bound, are full for the month of September.4" There are no lees than 200,000 American travelers in Europe and they have spent $130,000,000 ac cording to careful estimates.

At the grand stand the battle of flowers took place. This concluded the daylight festivities. WITH A HANDSOME MAN, Thomas Wlckersham Sues His Sweetheart fer $5,000 Damages. Galena, Kan., Aug. 22.

INGALLS CANCELS His Date at Troy, Missouri, Sep tember 2 In Order to Be at Topeka That Day. Ex-United States Senator John J. In galls will speak in Topeka, Labor day. Major T. J. Anderson, who has been in correspondence with Mr. Ingails on be half of the Topeka Trades and Labor Assembly this morning received a letter from him in which the ex-senator said JOHN J. INGALLS. he had cancelled an engagement to speak at Troy, Mo., on that date and will speak in Topeka on Labor day. Secretary Samuelson, of the Trades and Labor assembly, said this morning that Senator Ingails will speak in the afternoon at Garfield park. J. R. Burton has already agreed to be here on Labor day and the fact that the two avowed candidates for United States senator are to speak will add greatly to the importance of the occasion. WALLER CASE SUMMED UP. Govtrnment Has Good Grounds for De- clsive Action. Washington, Aug. 22. The following is given in official circies as a fair state ment in the Waller case, so far as the facts have been reported to the United States: There is no doubt that while in a country occupied by the French, Mr. Waller wrote letters to the people, the French were opposing. These letters were traced to him and were made the pretext for his arrest and conviction. This arrest and conviction was irregular. His trial was not fair, and during his imprison ment before and after conviction, he was treated with great harshness. He was brought to France, chained to the deck of a steamer, and though ill and suffer ing, he was imprisoned without proper care. The French government has not ex plained in any satisfactory manner the irregular arrest ana trial, it nas Dcen attempted to excuse it by saying that in time of war military courts are different from civil proceeding in times of peace, but this explanation in the opinion of the United States does not meet the case, and in the opinion of the state depart ment there is still strong probability that Waller's treatment was due to the con cession he claimed in Madagascar. When the case was first presented to the department of state it appeared that there was little that could be done for Waller. The first evidence furnished by the French government of Waller's in discretion made his case look doubtful, but later developments, including the failure of the French government to explain the irregular proceeding of the trial and un necessarily harsh and inhuman treatment of the prisoner and the demonstrated fact that Waller had some equity rights at least in Madagascar made his case ap pear in a far better light. In view of what has come to light as a result of later inquiries, it is held that the United States has good ground for demanding Waller's release and indemnity for his wrongs. STRIKERS NUMBER 8,000.

MARK TWAIN SETS OUT On His Lecturing Tour Around the World to Pay His Debts. Vancouver, B. C, Aug. 22. Samuel L. Clemens, (Mark Twain) is about to start from here on a lecturing trip around the world. He says he must earn money to pay the debts owed through the breaking of his publishing house. "From my reception thu3 far on my lecturing hour," says Mr. Clemens. 1 am confident that if I live I can pay off tlia last debt within four years, after which, at the age of sixty -four, I can make a fresh and unencumbered start in life. "I do not enjoy the hard travel ana broken rest, inseparable from lecturing, i and if it had not been for the imperious moral necessity of paying these debts, which I never contracted, but which was accumulated on thefaitu of my name by those who had a presumptive right to use it, I should never have taken to the road at my time of life. I could have supported myself comfortably by writing; but writing is too slow for the demands that I have to meet, therefore I have begun to lecture my way around the world. I am going to Australia, India, and South Africa, and next year I hope to make a tour of the great cities of the United States. In my preliminary run through the smaller cities on the northern route I have found a reception, the cordiality of which has touched my heart and made'me feel how small a thing money is in comparison with friend ship." BOSTON CHARGES HIGH. Windows Overlooking the Knights Tein- plar Parade $5 to $10 EmcIi. Boston. Aug. 22. "I will sell you a seat in my window for $5, or let you the whole for $30," said a Washington street milliner to a reporter today. From a tour over the route of the Knights Templar procession it appears that everyone who has a spare window overlooking the parade is "on the make." The tidy sum of $50 has been ex pended already in more than one in stance for the privilege of looking out through the open window for a few hours on August 27. Of course, there are exceptions and the location exception ally good, but $25 is no uncommon price along ColumbuB avenue for the U3e of a parlor. One individual complained because a property owner charged him $40 for the privilege of erecting a "bleacher" in front of his brick house, but if he suc ceeds in disposing of all his $3 tickets, he can very well afford to go on a vaca tion after the conclave. Many commanderies have secured whole houses from the windows of which the parade -may be seen. Besides the private enterprises, the grand encamp ment are erecting six grand stands, with, a total seating capacity of 7,600, and the local commanderies are erecting several others. The official grand stands are to be located in Adams, Copley, Trinity, Columbus, Blackstone and Franklin squares, and will cost $S4,000. fines the Western lnls. Charles E.

Waller And Payment of an Indemnity by France. TIRED OF WAITING. Waller Said to Be Dying of Consumption- Washington, Ang. 22. There is good authority for the statement that a peremptory demand will be made by the United States upon France for the release of ex-Consul John Waller and that satisfactory indemnity will be re quired for his arrest and imprison ment, with a probable request for a commission to determine Waller's rights in Madagascar. The discussion of the case between the French and American diplomats has reached a point where there is little else for the United States to do, owing to tne iact that repeated requests for a copy of the charges and testimony upon wnicn Waller was convicted have not been furnished by the French government. It was said at the state department yesterday that the delay in the case had been very annoying to the officials, and especially to Ambassador Eustis. The dilatoriness of France in this mat ter is regarded as indicating that she has a very poor case, and will be un able to resist the demands made by the United States. A condition which makes the delay of France more ag gravating is the fact that the depart ment is aware of the serious illness of Waller in prison, and that further con finement is injuring his health. Inter national questions generally move slowly, but the delay in producing pa pers and testimony in the case of Wal ler has been of a very exasperating na ture and has resulted in sharp pressure by United States officials to bring about a settlement. Some of the re ports which have been received at Washington say the treatment of Wal ler has been unjust and his arrest and trial a breach of international comity. LETTER FROM WAUEB. The Ex-Consul Writes to Senator Baker of Kansas. Leavenworth, Kan., Aug. 22. Sen ator Baker is in receipt of an auto graph letter from John Waller, ex consul at Tamatave, written from the latter's cell at Maison Centrale Du Clairvaux, touching upon his impris onment. Waller says in part: "As you are a lawyer of long ex perience, .1 ask you to carefully notice the testimony of Captain Lavesot on this point, and note at the same time that it was by his testimony that the prosecution seems to have based the charge that I was guilty of correspond ing with the enemy of France. "I submit that the evidence for the prosecution utterly fails to sustain or support the charge under which I am in solitary confinement for twenty years, and by the failure of which the case against me should have been dis missed by the prosecution in so far as it related to a violation of the penal code named in the indictment. "I further submit that the testimo ny of the only witness on this point fails to show or prove that either my wife or George E. Tessien are enemies to France in any sense whatever. It seems', then, that the whole case against me rests upon the letter which I wrote to Ratsmania, a young Mala gese man. This letter is relative sole ly to a business affair, with which France has nothing to do, nor does it relate to or concern the French gov ernment in any particular whatever. COLISEUM COLLAPSED. The Great Amnsement Structure at Chi cago Comes Down With a Crash. Chicago, Aug. 22. The Coliseum, the large building lately erected on the site where Buffalo Bill had his show during xhe world's fair, collapsed last night.

DR. ZAHM. ON EY0LUTI0N. His Liberal Views Have Created a Sensa tion In the Roman Catholio Church. Rev. Dr. J. A. Zahm, professor of physical science at Notre Dame univer sity, Indiana, has long been noted for his extreme liberalism on tha relations of sci ence to the teach ings of the Ko man Catholio church, but his recent lectures on evolution at the Catholio summer school in Platta bnrg created a decided sensation by reason by the novel and un orthodox opin Conservativea are V EEV. DR. ZAHM. ions advanced. breathing hints of heresy, and rnmors of a possible church trial are freely cir culated. The doctor and his friends, however, profess to fear no such result. The following portion of the doctor's lecture is one to which exoeption has been taken: "The evolution of the body of man from some inferior animal and the sub sequent endowment in this body by God of a rational soul is antagonistic to no dogma of faith and may be shown to be in harmony with the teachings of St. Thomas. The theory may encounter certain grave difficulties in the domains of metaphysics and Biblical exegesis, but I do not think that such difficulties are insuperable. At all events, whatever one may be disposed to think of the theory, it is well always to hear in mind that it has never been condemned by the church, although it has been publicly discussed and defended for full five and twenty years. Father Zahm's degree of doctor was lately conferred upon him by the pope, proprio motn, and it is an interesting fact that the only other scientist upon whom this honor has been conferred from the Vatican is St. George Mivart, whose excursion into forbidden fields of belief and its sequel of reprimand and recantation are well remembered. It is asked by not a few whether such a fate is not in store for Dr. Zahm. Dr. Zahm was born of German and Irish parentage at New Lexington, O., in 1841. In 1S71 he was graduated at the Notre Dame university and soon afterward entered the Congregation of the Holy Cross, which was founded at Notre Dame 50 years ago by the cele brated Father Sorin. For a quarter of a century Dr. Zahm has been professor of physics in the faculty of his alma mater. During that time he has traveled wide ly and has contributed largely to scien tific and religious periodicals. He was the first American to be elected a mem ber of the Societe Francais de Phy sique. SOLDIER STATESMEN. Democratic Candidates For Governor In Mississippi and Iowa. Two lawyers and ex-soldiers are the Democratic standard bearers in Missis sippi and Iowa this year. Mr. Anselnm J. McLaurin, the candidate for govern or in Mississippi, was born in Rankin county, that state, in the spring of 1848. He is of Scotch lineage. In 1864 he went to the Sommerville institute, a private training school for boys, but re mained there only a few months, when he enlisted in the Confederate army. At the close of the war he resumed his studies at the Sommerville school, grad uating in 1867 at the age of 19. He re turned to his humble log cabin home, his father being a farmer then living in Smith county, and assisted in repairing the loses entailed by the war. For a year he worked by day on the farm and read law at night by a pine knot fire. In the following spring he went to the county seat at Raleigh, where court was in session, took the required examina tion and was admitted to the bar. In 1871 he was elected state attorney for the Fifth judicial district, serving the full term of four years. Seeking a broad- A. J. M'LAURIN. W. I. BABB. er field, he moved to Brandon, where he formed a law partnership with General Robert Lowry. He has gained distinc tion as a criminal lawyer, having been engaged in nearly a hundred murder cases. He was elected to the state legis lature in 1879, and in 1888 was chosen elector at large on the Democratic tick et." He was a prominent figure in the state constitutional convention in 1892. In 1894 he was elected United States senator to fill Senator Walthall's unex pired term. Judge W. L Babb, the Iowa guberna torial candidate, was born in Dea Moines county Oct. 2, 1844. In 1860 he went to Mount Pleasant, which has since been his home. He served two years in the Union army as a private iu the Eighth Iowa cavalry during the war of the rebellion. He was educated at the Iowa Wesleyan university, receiving his degree in the classical course in 1866. He immediately began the study of law and was admitted to the bar in 1867, establishing himself in Mount Pleasant, where he has since practiced his pro fession. In 1 883 he was elected to the legislature from Henry county and has since served two terms as circuit judge. Judge Babb is a member of the board of trusees of the Wesleyan university, his alma mater, and is well known in Iowa through his labors in behalf of that in stitution and in connection with the Methodist church. He was a Republican until .1868, since -Which time he has been a Democrat. Amiable, There is kind of consolation "cold comfort," it is sometimes called that is much like a bitter medicine.

"Good heavens 1 What does this mean?" she exclaimed, rushing into the nursery, where her husband was darn ing stockings, and flaunting a notice of divorce before his eyes. The face of the slight though beauti ful man was blanched and there were traces of recent tears. With a dignified wave of the hand he pointed to the door and said: "Away, monster! My attor ney, Charlotte Singerly, will talk for me." "But this is cruel, my dear," plead ed the excited wife. "What cause, real or imaginary, have I ever given you to institute these proceedings?" "What grounds? Yon know too well what grounds. "If you will but name one instance where my behavior, either in public or private, has been such as to give you cause to question my faithfulness," she cried, "I'll pledge you upon my honor as a woman that I'll not stand in the way of the divorce, and will, moreover, volunteer to pay you good alimony. The indignant husband stamped his tiny French heel upon the floor. "Madam," he said, "tell me why you chucked that homely, ill bred Mr. Piebald under the chin yesterday and said that he had lovely eyes? And why did you kiss that bewhiskered Mr. Hen craft a few days ago? And it has also reached my ears that you have been seen fondling and kissing colored infants in their mothers' arms. The wife smiled in commiseration. "Do you only laugh at these wrongs?" screamed the irate husband, tearing hia wedding ring from his finger. "Yes, for you are so simple, my love." "Simple!" "Why, yes; am I not a candidate for mayor of this town?" "I believe you are. "Well, my dear, it is necessary for all candidates to kiss children, and their fathers, too, when they are good enough looking. It is an old custom, wisely adopted. It is as necessary as the second wheel on a bicycle. With a cry of joy the husband bounded into his wife's arms, and, burying his face in her manly bosom, exclaimed, "Oh, I am such a silly little goose, you know." New York Recorder. He Caught the Car. "Had an accident?" queried a group of men in a chorus as an acquaintance limped up to them on La Salle street the other afternoon with his arm in a sling, a strip of court plaster over his eye and two front teeth missing.

Then I went to take one of the horse cars that take the place of the cable from mid night till morning.

Realizing it would be a long wait till the next car, I made up my mind to catch the one in front of me. X started after it full speed, with my head down.

Chain of Evidence is Xow Con sidered Complete. Story ol Charles L. Hedwark and Wife.' SAW HDI AT WORK. Prosecution Will Account for Every Minute of Time On the Fatal Third Day of April. Sax Francisco, Aug. 22. The trial of Theodore Durrant will be resumed to day after a delay of nearly a week, caused by the illness of Judge Murphy. The prosecution accepted the delay as' an opportunity to take up the thread of several minor stories dropped by the de mand to pursue more vitally important clews. Absolutely nothing- has been left undone to make the evidence against the accused conclusive. Charles L. Hedwark and his wife were visited again by the prosecutors, and repeated the re markable story they related soon after Durrani's arrest. This story so little thought of at the time has gained significance in the last few days, particularly in relation to an important statement made by the police. Captain Lee and his associates have said that they will show beyond the power of contradiction the movements of Durrant during every hour of the day on which Blanche Lamont disappeared. It U believed that they have a wit ness, who saw Durrant near the churoh between 6 and 7 o'clock on the even ing of April 3. The dramatic story told by Hedwark and wife tells what followed. In the shadows of the church they saw a man moving from place to place. As the darkness of night deepened they saw him in the galleries of the deserted place, guided in hia ter rible work by the light of a candle. At first the moving light behind the great church window made them think the church was on tire, but closer watch ing quieted their fears and they conclud ed that some one was repairing the sauctuary. They had no suspicion that they were watching the last gruesome detail of a terrible crime. The man whose shadow they saw was hiding the deadly record of hia crime. He was busy among the rafters of the steeple, gazing now and then upon the body of the girl whose life he had taken. Subsequent events gave an intense in terest to the part which Hedwark and his wife witnessed. That is one reason why they have again told their story to the prosecution. Every detail was re peated. Now, shortly before that, Mrs. Hedwark called her husband's attention to the light in the church window. She is able to recall the inci dent for several reasons. The 3rd of April was her sister's birthday ana Mrs. HeawarK had paid her a visit on that day. She had returned to her home somewhat late and was sitting with her husband in the dining room when her attention was drawn to Emanuel church. The Kedwarks live directly opposite the church. Between their home and the Bartlett street church there is no ob struction. Mrs. Hedwark saw the moving light in the church at dusk. She thought it strange, and watching it for a moment, called her husband to the window. To gether they traced the shadows on the church windows. The man was in the gallery of the church. Now and again he would stoop and the light would flicker. Ha moved slowly from one part of the gallery into which the door into the main auditorium opens towards the door to the belfry. "When he had slowly made the journey ending at the foot of the tower the light suddenly disap peared. Mrs. Hedwark waited for a few moments and then left her station at the window. She and her husband had been watching the shadow of a mur derer, but thought that they were look ing at the reflection of some workmen in the church. Whether or not Hedwark and his wife will be summoned by the prosecution re mains to be seen. While their testimony posses singular dramatic interest, it tells nothing of the identity of the murderer. Whatever other witnesses might tell Hedwark and hia wife could 6 ay nothing on that score. Backlci't Arnica St'.rs.

A TALE FROM TARSUS. No Americana Were itumed in tbe Re parted Outrages. Washington, Aug. 22. Acting Secre tary Adee today received a note from Mavroyen Bey, the Turkish minister to the United States, saying that the Turk ish government had informed him a thorough investigation had been made of alleged outrages on Americans at Tarsus, The result of these investigations be wrote, was to the effect that the cook in the family of Prof. Christie of St. Pauls institute at Tarsus had been assaulted by native Turks and that no Americans were concerned in the mat ter nor injured. The minister also stat ed that tne Turkish offenders would be tried and punished. The state department expects to re ceive information on the same affair from United States officials in Turkey, as Min ister Terrell advised the department some time ago that he had taken steps to have the matter investigated.

T WILLJELELnID Who Will Dole Out Every Office in Kansas To His Political Friends, Bij and Little IF M'KINLEY WINS In the Next Presidential Elec tion Unless McKinley Breaks With Leland at Once. Kansas e'ems to be the battleground of presidential politics. This is because Kansas always leads. When the people of the east want to know how the great west stands on any subject, they inquire about Kansas. As Kansas goes, so goes the west, and the time is not far distant when it can be truthfully said. ''As goes Kansas, so goes the union." A year ago Gov. McKinlev of Ohio made a circuit of the west and pretty thoroughly solidified himself with the rank and file of the ReDublican oartv. Starting in at Kansas City, his trio through Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota was one continuous ovation. At the mouth of the Kaw Chairman Cy Leland and his little select party of friends monopolized McKinley's time in the private car until the special reached .Belleville. At that place Chairman Morrill and party of the Nebraska Republican com mittee took charge of the Ohio map, and at every stop through that state the ova tions tendered him in Kansas were re peated. bo it was in Iowa and Minnesota. The entire trip had been planned with a view to give McKiuley the four states trav ersed in the national Republican conven tion next year. rearing that the championship of Mc- Kinley by the state administration and Cy Leland's faction would injure rather than aid the proctection leader, the management of the Ottawa Chautauqua was induced to bring him back to Kan sas this year that there might be no doubt about this state's attitude in the national convention next year. When McKinley arrived at Kansas City, enroute to Ottawa, he found Leland. Crum, Bristow, George T. Anthony and one or two others who monopolized his time to and from Ottawa, shutting out other Republicans who were not a part of the charmed circle. On that trip the Ohio man was again assured that the Kansas delegation would be far him, and in his recent interview in New York Governor Morrill was foolish enough to say that McKinley could count on the Kansas delegation. this interview with the Kansas gover nor was the straw that broke the camel's back. There had been mutterings about the deal between McKinley and Leland in which the Kansas Republicans were to be delivered bodily and without con sultation, but the storm of indignation did not reach its height until Morrill corroborated the storv. Since the State Journal's expose of this deal a few davs ago the mails have been burdened with letters to McKinley and his close friends in Ohio, as well as to Tom Reed, exPresident Harrison and Republican leaders who are not in the McKinley movement. there are thousands of Republicans in Kansas who want to support McKinley for president, and will, if they can be as sured that he will cut loose from the Leland-Morrill combination. He has hundreds of personal friends in Kansas who admire him and who want him to win but who draw the line on his present plan of securing the state delegation. Since the State Journal printed the story of the deal made on the McKinley train returning from Ottawa, a score of prominent Republicans of ToDeka have written to Republicans in Ohio who are close to Governor McKinley, informing them that they can no longer be counted as McKinley advocates if the Ohioan shall continue to look to Cy Leland, Lit Crum and Governor Morrill to handle this state in the national convention, One of these men, a well known To peka Republican, has written a letter to Governor McKinley's chief political ad' visor, in which he said that there was grave danger of McKinley losing Kansas if he did not in an emphatic way give the Republicans of this state to understand that Leland would not parcel out the federal spoils in case of McKinley's nomination and election to the presi dency. This man requested a reply after his correspondent has conferred with Governor McKinley, and if he is not assured that the Ohio governor will be guided by the wishes of the party rather than by two or three bosses, then he is ready to join the rebellion and as sist in sending a delegation to the na tional convention that will oppose Sic Kinlev's nomination. It is safe to say that four-fifths of the Republicans of Kansas will endorse such action.

Total Reduced by Accidents and Disappointments. Dwyer Enters Handspring and Axiom. New York, Aug. 22. The final prepar ations of the futurity candidates are nearly all made and the number of starters has been reduced by accidents or by disappointments. Handspring and Axiom will go to the post in the interest of P. J. Dwyer. both fit and steady. Handspring will be ridden by Simms and if no starter appears under J. O. Conner's colors, Doggett will have the mount on the til ley. In the McOafferty stable three are fit and Applegate is the best of the lot in public form although Jefferson and Wishard are un known quantities. McCafferty will ride the first named, but the jockeys on the others are doubtfnl. Applegate is in the beat of condition and his owner thinks his chances are as good as any body for the rich stakes. The Blemton, stable will start,, two at least and may be three. Hastings, of course is at the head of the lot and Perkins will be the jockey Hamiton has been notified to be ready to ride either the Merry Prince or Refugee and it will probably be the former, as he has run away from his stablecompanions in his trial. In yester days work Hasting would only go three quarters in 1:19 but soon after he went a half in 50 seconds. Gideon has two good colts in Requittal and Hazlet and Griffin will probably rida the former. He was sent six furlongs yesterday in 1:14, going easily while Hazlet covered the distance in a little under 1:16. There is much talk at the track about Rebuttal and he is looked upon as the most prominent of the lot Taral thinks he could win with him. Hazlet is by no means an impossibility, but he seems now to be a little short of the standard required for a futurity win ner this year, when the class of eutries la so high. Crescendo was sent out yes terday, but could only do 1:16 for six furlongs and was distressed at the end. Mr. Morris' stable will probably start Intermission and Formal. A. F. Wol cott's Palmerstone is ready, and has shown good enough work to warrant his owner sending him to the post, so he may be counted upon as a likely starter. The only representative of the Keene stable probable is Peep O'Day, and of course Taral would ride. He has not shown Futurity Form however. This makes the likely starters eighteen, with a possibility of a few more. MISSIONARIES MUST GO. Chinese Make Another Attack on American Mission at Foo Chow. Hong Kong, Aug. 22.

This Is the greatest showing the Stat Joint Fal has ever been able to make for a period of any six nonths in its -history. This is a greater figure than was reached by any daily paper in Topeka for the year 1894. The American Newspaper Directory, issued in June, 1895. and covering the year 1894, gives the average daily circulation of the Topeka Daily Capital for the year 1894, as only 8.7M. Those figures were furnished by the publishers of the Capital, to the Directory, and are guaranteed to be correct by a forfeit of $109, which will be paid to any one disproving their correctness. The following figures, substantiated by sworn statements in detail, giving every issue for the first six months In 1893, 1894 and 1895. shows the Topeka Siatk Journal's Wonderful QroWth.

Weather Indication. Chicago. Aug. 22. For Kansas: For tonight and Friday, cooler northwest winds. Coxmt should get back to Ohio with all possible speed. There is a large Democratic vote there ripe for the har vest If China doesn't want the missionaries why don't they Itay away. There are plenty of other places where their ser vices are needed. A declaration for free coinage at 16 to 1 would have no practical effect said Senator Brice in hiB Springfield speech, yet he spared no effort to prevent such a declaration. Thi $20,000 emergency appropriation made for the militia by the last legis lature was evidently intended for use in suppressing the rebellion in Wichita, Leavenworth and Atchison. Senator Brick urged the Ohio Demo crats to stand on the platform of 1892. The people of the country have been liv ing under the operation of the platform of 1892 and they are heartily tired of it. There is no reason why tomatoes should decay on the vines around To peka, as suggested by Mr. J. B. Lari mer. There is a manufacturing insti tution in the city that buys all the fruit and tomatoes it can pet It has been suggested by a cotempo rary that since Chairman Richardson has been given a $45 job that he pay the expenses of the Democratic campaign next year. It is currently reported that Cy Leland paid them last year. All the best papers in the state just now seem to be engaged in printing edl torial endorsements of the action of the state board of charities in reappointing A. A. Stewart to the snperintendency of the Olathe institution for the deaf and dumb. JfDGH Patrick, who Is an uncle of Charley and Frank Patrick of this city, coined a new and expressive phrase in the course of a speeeh in the Ohio Dem ocratic convention when speaking for Bilver, he declared that this is a fight between the "millions and the million aires." Thk Lawrence Journal Bays the Re publicans of Crawford county should read up on the principles of the party. Well, if the principles of the party are not to do what is for the best interests of the whole people, what are theyT If these are not the principles then the principles should be changed, and there is ns better place to begin than in Craw ford county. Taa bosses have had a harder fight than usual this year, but as usual, they have won. Time alone will tell what their victories will be worth to them. Boss Gorman succeeded in dictating the platform and the nominations of his party in Maryland, but the Democratic governor of that state is already demand ing the calling of another convention. Boss Quay is just emerging from the greatest fight of his life, la which not only his own fate was wrapped up, but that of his collegne, Don Cameron also. He has apparently won a victory, but when it is considered that it was also a victory for Cameron, who is a strong sil ver man and Is considered a Populist, the future of Republicanism in Pennsylvania cannot be regarded as encouraging. The gold men of both the Republican and Democratic parties will sacrifice party or anything else for the cause of gold monometallism. Boss Brice has won his fight In Ohio, but in doing it he has de stroyed any vestige of a chance for party success, which might have existed. This fact was recognized by the members of the convention, and it was impossible to get anybody to willingly accept the nomination for governor. All efforts to Mexicanize the United States seem doomed to failure. Bull fights which had been arranged for At lanta, Ga,, and San Bernardino, CaL, have been abandoned and Governor Hclntire saya the one in Colorado can not take place. We allow only human brutes to engage in any such amuse ment. If the syndicate of Wall street bank ers can so easily furnish gold to keep up the treasury reserve now, why couldn't they do it before the issue of bonds was made. Couldn't they have been hired to do so for less than $9,000,000. Mr. Cleve land is a bad business agent and ought to be discharged. The Kentucky farce was re-enacted by the Ohio Democracy at their state convention. The postmasters trot the platform and then there was nothing else left that anybody wanted. Ex-Governor Campbell was offered as an unwilling sacrifice to the greed and rapacity of the administration crowd. It is doubtful whether Brice can be re elected even with the help of John Sher man. The state has been divided be tween the two parties for many years on the senatorial question, both sides help ing the party whose turn it was to elect. The national banks hold $117,000,000 in gold and the treasury holds $102,000, 000. Where is the balance of that $625, 000,000 which Mr. Carlisle says is iu the country and will leave as soon as the mints are opened to silver. JURY OF MEN AND WOMEN. Kentucky' Famous Breach of Promise Suit Must Be Tried. Lancaster, Ky., Aug. 22. The first thing Judge M. C. Saufley of the Thir teenth judicial district asked when he stepped into court at this place this morn ing waa,"Whathas become of the breach of promise suit?" When told that it had been compromised and ordered dismissed by Strivers, the plaintiff, he said: "I will not take notice of any such set tlement. The case will have to be tried and that by a jury composed one-half of women and the other half of men. I have been looking forward to the trial of this case with a great deal of interest, and it will be settled in no other way than by a trial." This is the case in which W. C. Striv ers sued Mrs. Catherine West of this county for not fulfilling her promise to marry him, and which has created wide spread interest throughout the length and breadth of the country. It was de cided at first to try this case with a jury composed exclusively of women, but after reconsidering the matter the judge came to the conclusion that as the plain tiff was a man and the defendant a woman, the proper thing to do would be to try the case with six men and six women.

One Fare to .Ronton aad Ectnra By the Union Pacific. Choice of routes. Sold Aug. 19th to 24th; THE GRAND CANYON. Edith Sessions Tupper's Glowing Description of It. SHE SiYS IT IS THE MOST STUPEHDOUS Thlasr en Earth and Advises Amer ican to See It Before feral be Abroad. A Marvelous Leap. Flasstaff, A. T., August 19 I have seen the most stupendous thing on earth, the Grand canyon of the Colorado river. It is, I suppose, the only scenery on the globe that does not disappoint. Aft er you have staged 65 miles across the plains of Arizona you are naturally rather irritable and begin to reckon how many kinds of a fool yon are for quit ting the comforts of a sleeping car and braving this wild, remote region. But when you leave the stage at the camp you hasten at once up the hill to calcu late as quickly as possible the extent of your imbecility. Up through the odor ous pine forest you trudge, and as yon reach th summit, suddenly, without any premonition, the earth yawns be neath you 1 You stand upon the brink of the bottomless pit. Terrible An inde scribable emotion seizes you. You wish to topple forward, to fling yourself into that awful chaotic chasm. You recoil, step back and lift your eyes, and, lo, the gates of paradise seem swinging before you, and through them you see the walls and ramparts and golden streets of a city not made with hands. And that is just what the Grand can yon is a combination of regions in fernal and celestial. I am not going to try to describe it, for before its super human majesty, its splendor,. its loveli ness, words become as sounding brass and tinkling cymbal. I wish only to say that as I stood there and looked at it first, flooded with the soft golden and violet lightof sunset, I loDged for a trumpet to send forth a clarion call over his vast country and to cry "Stop, stop, Americans 1 Do not go abroad 1 Look at your own country first. Come here and see what God has wrought." How to Get There. I wish in this letter to tell Americans eomething of the way to reach the Grand canyon, what to expect in the way of fare and entertainment, how to JOHN HANCE OF ARIZONA. dress and to give a few other practical hints and facts regarding this yet almost unknown land. First, if yon fancy that you can make the trip on flowery beds of ease, live on truffles, mushrooms and quail, take Saratogas filled with ex pensive finery to flaunt before the na tives of Arizona, don't go with a very large capital D. But if yon love nature so well that for her sake you can endure certain dis comforts and are prepared to rough it in order to look npon a scene which will blazon and burn its image into your memory forever and aye, which will move yon if yon have one little bit of soul in your body, then go with a very large capital G. And go quickly, before the railroad, which the great Santa Fe system is sure to build within the next few years, shall penetrate this tremen dous wilderness and bring the world, the flesh and the other fellow to these sublime precincts. For now one of its greatest charms is that it lies remote, alone in its awful grandeur, a thing apart from all the world, wrapped in primeval silence, de manding due homage from the pilgrims who travel from afar to kneel at its ter rible shrine. A lionc Stage Ride. You leave the railroad at Flagstaff, A. T. a typically rough frontier town. If possible, get away at once to the can yon, for the only hotel in the town is an impossible place for cleanly people. Moreover, you can eat nothing which is set before you. This place is noted for its very bad cooking. In many of the roughest mining camps of Colorado I have had much better fare. Mr. Tbur ber, who runs the stages to the canyon, is an accommodating man and will send tourists on any hour they wish to go, although the gnidebooks advertise the stages as running but three times a week. While I was there a New York man came into the camp at 2 a. m., having been sent by special delivery from Flagstaff. So there is no reason why yon should stop and suffer in the town The stage ride is one of 70 miles. There are three relays of horses on the route, and a stop is made midway at Cedar Ranch for dinner. The first and last stages of the journey are very pleas ant, as the trail winds through grand forests of pine unincumbered with any underbrush. For miles on either side you can look far down long aisles of green flooded with golden sunshine. The two middle stages are not so agreeable, as yon drive over those endless Arizona1 mesas through clouds of blinding dust.. It's not warm, though. I expected to be grilled alive, but in July, crossing these plains, I wore a thick jacket and had a heavy wool robe across my lap and was none too warm. The Drirer. I Fortunate indeed will yon be if yon get the box seat with Robert Ferguson, driver. Ferguson, a handsome, brawny Scotch-American, has wintered for sev en years down in the canyon. He knows every nook and corner of it, every bit of light and shade. He understands its every mood, he tells you in wonderfully beautiful language just how it looks after a thunderstorm, when the silver mists are lifting from its hidden charms as a lovely woman slowly lifts her veil, or how the moonlight touches its crags and pinnacles, bringing out its contours with new attraction, or how the sunrise floods it with a light that never was on sea or land. Ferguson is the man who filled out Powell's pack train -for his first explorations of the canyon, and he tells yon many interesting stories of the daring explorer. He lets you drive, too, and shows yon how to handle the four-in-hand and enlightens you as to the tricks of the leaders and in every way helps to make the tedious journey pass quickly. He's a character, is Ferguson typically western, whole eonled, brees$y, chivalrous, a rough Sir Walter Raleigh who puts his corduroy jacket under your feet for a footstool. When you reach the camp, you fall Into the hands, not of the Philistines, but the Tolfrees and "Ming." The Tol frees are California folks who come to the canyon every summer to take care of the wayfarers, and "Ming" is the Ce lestial who does the cooking. Now, re member, you are 75 miles from a rail road. Every vegetable, every steak, ev ery egg is brought that distance by stage. But when you sit down to a beautifully clean table in the dining tent and eat a deliciously cooked, appetizing meal, daintily served you by two blond Hebes, the pretty Tolfree girls, you rub your eyes and wonder whether you are awake. The beds, to, are excellent, clean and comfortable, and as, lying in your teut, you listen to the never endless soughing of the wind through the pines you think that wild and woolly Arizona is not a half bad place after all. You will leave that camp regretfully peaceful, restful place that it is and more than once will you think of "Ming's" cooking those delicious pies, that cake, those flapjacks 1 John Uance's Peril. All the way from Albuquerque you have been hearing about John Hance. Hance has lived at the camp for .12 years. He owns two trails into the can yon, has a peak named for him and is possibly the most distinguished citizen in that sparsely settled locality. But perhaps his chief claim to consideration arises from the fact that he is undoubt edly the champion American fakir. Whether it is because he has lived alone so much, sometimes not hearing tha sound of a human voice among those awful solitudes for six months, and has fallen into the habit of inventing yarns to pass the time I know not, but cer tainly Munchausen must hang his head before John Hance. I was warned be fore I went to the camp, "Be sure and get him to tell you the story of his horse's jumping over into the canyon. So when we sat in his daintily 6wept and freshly scrubbed log cabin, hanging pn the rim of the canyon like an eagle's hest to a tree, after much entertaiuing conversation I said, "Captain, what was the greatest peril you were ever exposed to?" "Waal," he said promptly, "I reckon 'twas when my hoss jumped right clean over the precipice and fell over 3,000 feet, with me on his back. "Dear me," I sard, "and you lived?" "Why, yes J 'Tain't so easy ter kill John Hance. I reckon I hain't sense enough ter git killed. My hoss got scared at some mountain sheep and drove 'em right over into the canyon. I 6een he'was a-goin after 'em, and I sez, 'Now, John, hang on,' and I jest give him the whip and spur, and over we went. Now, mind ye, while he was a-fallin I was a-ridin, and jest before we struck the bottom of the canyon I jumped off, and so saved my life. He went on and was dashed to pieces." All this without a blush or tremor of the eyelids. There was silence for the space of half a minute, and then, while the Harvard prof essor who was with me looked sadly at the floor, I said, "Now, captain, I know just as well as you that I am a tenderfoot, but you can't expect me to believe that yarn. Strong Proof. 'I never tell no stories I can't prove," replied John Hance of Arizona. "Come here, mom." And leading me to the doorway of his cabin he pointed down 8,000 feet into the canyon. "Right down there, do ye see that white spot? Yes? Waal, them's the bones of that thar critter a-bleachin. "Most remarkable theory in physics, mused the Harvard professor as we walked back to camp. "The horse was falling, you notice, and Hance was rid ing. Astounding!" And he shook his head gravely. Subsequent investigation proved "that them bones a-bleachin" were the remains of a pack horse be longing to a cowboy. John evidently found "them bones" and wove his de lightful little story around them. Hance fakes people down the trails into the canyon and charges for his pack horse and his company $12 a day for each person, which of course is not ex orbitant when you consider the enter tainment he provides. It is a frightfully rough trip for a lady arid seldom under taken. A woman must ride astride go ing down. She should provide herself with equestrian tights, high cloth gaiters or leggings, thick shoes one or two sizes too large for her feet and a very short skirt. A loose blouse of silk or some wash fabric and a hat which shades the face are absolutely necessary. An Al pine stick will be found useful on the return if one wearies of the horse and wishes to walk awhile. Men should pro vide themselves with high boots such as the miners wear or leather legging3 coming to the knees. Never go into the canyon without whisky and ammonia, in case of rattlers. The best plan to fol low in visiting tha bottom of the can yon is to go down one day, stay all night at Hance's winter cabin and return the next morning. The view at night look ing up the canyon walls is indescribably magnificent. Edith Sessions Txtper. r.'W'AOASAaeA4l Trio Onlir O a -m i-. 1 tir j u.

Sliively's Old Stand, 118 East Sixth Street- GREYHOUND SPORTS. Coursing and Where It Will Be Seen This Year. GENERAL SEWS OF SPORTING MATTERS Two Hundred Dollar for Kneeing a Horse-Practicing for football. There is one branch of sport in which Kansas has always held her own, and that is coursing. No state in the Union affords better facilities for this sport than mar be had in western Kansas. For a number of years the celebrated Waterloo cup was contested for at Great Bend or Hutchinson, but this year it will be run for at Huron, S. D. The lovsrs of coursing who live in Kansas will not have to leave the state this year, however, to see good races, as the Altcar club will hold their third an nual meeting at Qoodland, October 23, and this event will be followed on Oc tober 28 by the third annual meet ing of the Kenmore coursing club, which will also be held at Goodland, T. TV. Bartels is secretary of the Altcar club and C. E. Weber secretary of the Kenmore club. Basil Hayman will judge both meets and Wm. Airhart will act in the capacity of slipper. Besides the Altcar cup there .will be liberal stakes offered, and some of the beat greyhounds in the country will be shipped. Among the moat prominent promoters of coursing in Kansas are Messrs. H. C. Lowe of Lawrenco, D. C. Luck of Great Bend, G. Irwin Royce, formerly of To peka, T. W. Bartels of Goodland and O. M. Wilhite of Emporia. To be sure there are hundreds of other gentlemen in the state who are ardent admirers of the greyhound, but those mentioned above are the veterans coursers of Kan sas. FOR SHOEING A HORSE $200. An Interesting- Latter Received By Art Mauay of Topeka. Tw hundred dollars for shoeing a horse Eeems to be pretty good pay. That is what the man received who shod Joe Patchen and John R. Gentry for their great match race at Chicago today. Art Massey today received the following from a friend in Chicago: Friend Masset. I wai out at Wash ington park Sunday and saw Joe Patchen and John R. Gentry work out. Neilson shod them both. He put on fiat steel and does the floor work himself. He got $200 apiece for the work.

Games, Harm Ryus, Clarence Evans and Scotty Kane are practising almost every evening at the fair grounds for the com ing foot ball season. Evans is a super ior full back and Ryus and Kane are as good halves as can be fonnd anywhere. These gentlemen appreciate that if there is to be any foot ball in Topeka this year that the time has nearly ar rived to begin active operations. If Topeka expects to cope with the college elevens her team will have to begin active training not later than the middle of September. If we have a team it may be aa "all Topeka" eleven and the Ath letic club and Y. il.Gi will not put teams in the field. The boys are tralaing for wind and prac tising some with the ball in kicking and passing. There has been talk of a coach but no one has as yet been secured. II. W, Games, the crack right end of the Baker eleven, is among those considered for this position. If the game is to be played, not an instant should be lost in getting subscriptions and correspondiag with a desirable trainer. BIRD MATCH POSTPONED. Put Still There Will Be Interesting Shoot-

The live bird match between Messrs. Montgomery and Biecoe has again been postponed. Mr. Montgomery insisted upon shoot ing from plunge traps, and as there are none in Topeka, it will be necessary to send away for them before the race can come oft Those who have anticipated witnessing this event Friday afteraoon need not be disappointed, however, as Sir. Biscee and P. J. Hindmarsh will ehoet a match at twenty-five live birds per man under American Shooting asso ciation rales. JHr. J3isco said Uday that his race S! bargains I with Mr. Montgomery would probably not come off next week as ha and E. ii Dibert expect to start Monday or Tues day for Morris county for a few days' shooting. GAME LAW UNCONSTITUTIONAL J. C. Clark Says That It Is Undoubtedly So. J. C. Clark says that there is no doubt that the game law is unconstitutional, He says that the section prohibiting any one but the owner of the land from shoot ing game birds is clearly contrary to the constitution, because it does not allow him to delegate the right Lieutenant Governor Troutman, who is not quite so enthusiastic a sportsman as Mr. Clark, but is quite as good a lawyer, says that he fails to see how the law is in violation of the constitution. It would be a good plan for Mr. Clark to get him self arrested in order to test the law. BICYCLE TRACK AT W AM EGO. Prizes Worth $500 to Bo Given at the Opening;. The three lap bicycle track at Wame go will open September 11 with a two days race meeting. Races will be open to class A riders only, and will be run under L. A. W. rules.

Ho Wants to Know Why Mr. Noel Holds the Coal Hole Fund. Charlie Holliday is on the war path. There is blood in his eye and he is after the city fathers. It is the coal hole fund that is causing Charlie all this unhap piness. He thinks the fund should be used for the purpose for which it was voted and that it is not fair to allow the money to remain in the hands of Mr. P. G. Noel without any return being made for its use. "There is over said he, uand it pecting for coal, voted for and I should not be $5,000 of this money," should be used in pros That is what it was tee no reason why it used. Wichita is pros- pecting for coal right now and poor old Topeka is not doing a thing. "I can not understand why Mr. Noel should be allowed to keep this money without paying any interest. If the council is going to do that with one man, I think that the rest of us should be treated the same way. There are plenty of people in Topeka who would be glad to have $5,000 of $6,000 without interest for eight or ten years." Mr. Noel has several times expressed his desire and willingness to turn the money over to the city, but no action has ever been taken. ABOUT A CITY FLAG. Two SuTSTestiens Made as to the Appro priate Design. To the Editor of the State Journal: I think the suggestion of a design for a city flag put forth by Mayor Fellows, a very good one, and deserving considera tion. I have a slight change to offer on it. Instead of occupying the entire blue field with the word "Topeka," I will add the old peace symbol, the iron cross, im mediately under the word Topeka; and still another: Use the national colors, and put in the blue space a star represent ing each state in the union at the time Kansas became a state, and a large one in the center for Kansas and Topeka, A Subscriber. Another jngcestion. Ts the Editor of the State Journal. The suggestion for a city flag made by the Journal last evening will no doubt be a popular one. It will give the peo ple of Topeka a more fraternal feeling and encourage pride in our city and her institutions. 1 have a suggestion for a flag. Suppose as some one suggested that the flag be of light blue silk with a gilt sunflower in the middle and ears of corn embroidered around the edge? ;a. m. f. For Over .Fifty Years.

Caldwell to Visit Topeka Next Week TO MAKE A DECREE FOR SALE Or the Santa Fe Railroad The Sale Will Be Made About November X The date for the sale of the Santa Fe railroad will be fixed next week in To peka, No one will know until then when the road will be turned over to the re organization committee. Sometime next week the day has not yet been decided upon Judge Henry C. Caldwell will come to Topeka. He will come here for the express purpose of making the decree for the sale of the Santa Fe railroad. He may not fix the date for the sale, but it is generally thought that he wilL The decree will simply indicate the bonds and other indebtedness of the company which must be paid before the road will be allowed to pads from the control of the receivers. The manner of payment will also be outlined in Judge Caldwell's order. When the schedule of the indebted ness of the company has been made it will then be known what is the lowest figure at which the road may be sold. 1 The whole proceeding is a matter of form and the sale will be nothing more, for there will be no other bidders, but the reorganization committee and the amount to be paid has already been agreed upon. Judge Caldwell's order may change the plans slightly, but the sale will nevertheless be a mere form. There is one thing certain, and that is that the sale will not be made before November 1. The sale must be adver tised for thirty days, and then there muBt be an interval of thirty days before the sale. That will bring1 the date up tor November 1, and It may be fixed for a month later. The sale will be made at the front steps of the federal building by Judge J. B. Johnson of Topeka, who is special master in chancery, and as soon after the sale as the purchaser pays the required sum into court the railroad will pass out of the control of the receivers. Judge Caldwell is now in Colorado Springs and he will stop in Topeka on his return. MARRIED, NOT DEAD. (general Fry Is Not the Mam Ban Over by the Cars.

6 STATE JOURNAL, THURSDAY EVENING. AUGUST 22, 1 89d. WASHING THE DISHES. There Is a Hiffht aad at Wrong: Way In This Prosaic Occupation. "With a view to assisting readers to the right way is here appended in brief an extended dissertation on the washing of dishes -which recently appeared in some of the weekly eschanges. As res cued from its circumlocution and pre sented in Good Housekeeping, the sub stance of the instructions given was as follows The articles required for a dish wash ing equipment comprise a clean sink, plenty of hot water, a high grade soap without an excess of soda, a dish drain er and plenty of room for handling the work, dishcloths and ruyps, a cake of sapolio, a bottle of diluted ammonia, a knife cleaner and plenty of clean, dry towels. When the dishes have been placed in the suds, they should be im mediately washed out, rinsed and wiped. Leaving them in the soapy wa ter has a tendencyto injure the glaze. Before commencing operations see that the cups and glasses are emptied of any surplus fluids, and that other dishes are froedfrom remnants of the feast, wheth er fluids, semifluids or solids. Wash the dishes of one kind together, for the rea son that, apart from less liability to damage, they go together through all the subsequent stages and reduce the labor of handling to a minimum. Begin with the glassware, following with the finer china. By this time it is likely that the suds will be too cool for efficient service. In that case it may be brought to the right temperature by add ing more hot water and a little soap. Take the silver next, and after washing place it upon the drainer, rinsing it by pouring hot water upon it from a pitch er. The same process may be pursued in regard to other dishes and is a very excellent method of rinsing, but with fine china care is to be taken that the water is not too hot, else the vessels may be cracked. Carrying on the system thus far in dicated, the remainder of the task will be found comparatively easy. One class of dishes at a time is to be taken, deftly washed and passed on, the suds being changed or re-enforoed as often as it loses heat. All the dishes and appurte nances of the table which are used and handled should be washed after each meal. After the dishes are out of the way comes the cutlery. This should be rinsed, wiped, scoured and again wiped to remove any traces of the polishing material. This scouring is not by any means a formidable process if proper appliances are provided, but in that connection it should be borne in mind to place the blade flat upon the scour ing board to avoid strain upon the han dles, and in the washing handles of knives or forks should never be im mersed in hot water. They should be quickly washed over and wiped dry. It also may not be amiss to suggest the importance of giving prompt attention to the inside of articles like pitchers, mugs and cups. The difficulty of access emphasizes the necessity of care and promptness. Sedimentary stains are easily removed on the first day, they "stick like a brother," on the second, and afterward seem to have become al most a part of the fiber of the material. How to Cleaa Straw Matting. Straw mattings can be cleansed from dust by wiping with a cloth wrung out of salt water. If white, this prevents their turning yellow, and if colored their fading. The water should be cold, with a small handful of salt dissolved in a pailful. C arrant Cakes. Half a cupful butter, a cupful of sug ar, an egg, 2 tablespoonfuls milk, half a cupful currants, 2 small teaspoonfuls baking powder and flour to make a very stiff batter. Heap in small mounds on buttered paper and bake 15 minutes. A Popular Apron. Blue and white broken check ging ham, if made up after a model furnish ed by The Housewife, will afford a very serviceable and practical apron for a child. The square yolk forms the upper portion, which is fitted by shoulder scrims and furnished with wide hems at the back, where it closes with but tons and buttonholes. The full front and back are gathered at the top with a narrow heading and joined to the lower edge of yoke, fall ing in graceful fullness to the bottom of the dress skirt. The broad sash ties are inserted in the under arm seams, CHILD'S APRON WITH YOKE. holding the fullness at the waist in back under a prettily looped bow and ends. The full bishop sleeves are gathered top and bottom, wristbands of good width, through which the hands can be easily slipped, finishing the wrists. A stand ing collar, or band, finishes the neck. The utility and durability of these aprons make them populzu: with moth ers, as in hot weather th;y can take the place of a dress for Booming and or dinary wear. Dainty aprons may be made in this style from white dimity, nainsook, lawn cr cross barred 'inuslin and trimmed With embjassidery.or lace edging. V u ll H 0 Hi IN SOCIETY CHICLES.

FREAKS OF FASHION. Olive Harp9r Notes a Curious Upheaval of Styles. THE RAGE FOR FUR TRIMMISG. AH or Which Shows That There Im So Accounting For Taate 3ew Vo timo and Wraps Swaa'a JOown. New Tobk, Aug. 20. "I think I have never seen such a curious upheaval in fashions as I do now. In one place they will show you a gown that might have belonged to some duchess or marquise whose very name is forgotten and tell yon that that is the only proper thing, and that in less than two months we shall all be wearing just such things. In another place we may find a superb creation that reminds ns of nothing, un less that its richness may force a thought of the queen of Sheba or Solomon in all his glory. Then you will see a dainty array of sweet simplicity. There was a gown of light taffeta in one place that was a per- KICH SILK ASD BROCADE COSTCME. feet show, and the importer assured me that it was a model gown and that it would be a great favorite.. The under portion ofL the skirt consisted of two knife plaited ruffles, each four inches deep. Above these there was an over skirt cut with great round tabs, which fell over the ruffles. These tabs had ruffles all around them, and above the ruffles were three milliner's folds of satin to match the silk in shade. Be sides thes9 there were three clusters of folds around the skirt, seven, five and three folds in the clusters. The waist was full and gathered into a belt, and on the shoulders there was a stiff and wide collar nearly covered with fine folds, and the whole bordered with a knife plaiting. The sleeves were puffs, ending just below the elbow with stiff upturned cuffs. The whole gown was so stiff that it fairly balanced as the young "trier on" walked slowly up and down the room. That was one style. In another quite as fashionable a place there was a gown for a young girl for her coming out days. This was of fine white chudda cash mere. The skirt hung from the waist in severe unbroken lines. It was full with out having the appearance of being so. Down the front of the skirt there was one flat band of black guipure insertion over baby blue satin ribbon. The belt was made in the same way. The waist was a "baby" with three lines of the ribbon and insertion. The neck was cut half low and simply piped with- the blue. The sleeves were elbow puffs, with three rows of insertion down from the shoulders. There was no finish at the elbows. What a pretty and maiden ly dress this was I despair of making any one understand. Chudda cashmere is rather stiff and hairy to the touch, but the folds would delight an artist. It comes in a dull frosty, pale grayish blue, impossible to exactly describe, in mel low ivory white and in a faint blush pink. There will be much heavy velvet and plush brooade for winter wear, and vel vet and plain plush will be very popu lar, the velvet for street and carriage attire and the plush for elegant home costumes. The velvet and plush bro cades will show large figures. Indeed FOB THE YOUNG DAUGHTER. Buch material could not be. handled in small figures at alL Plush in seal brown and black will be and, in fact, is now being made in long box coats and quaint mantles as well as deep capes. Some of these have stole collars of long fur. I was informed in the finest fur es tablishment that we have that there is a greater demand now than there has ever been before for strips of trimming of mink, raccoon, skunk and marten. These are to be employed as trimming for every sort of gurment and handsome dresses for every possible requirement, some even for dancing dresses. Grebe I notice in quit large quantities for muffs and collarettes for young persons, and swan's down is decidedly "in" aft er having been almost entirely "out for a generation.

Some natures change, some hearts. Dorothy George George I was only generalizing. (She rises to leave. He catches her hand.) Don't go, Dor! I suppose I may call you by the old name until after the ceremony? I admit I am changed. Dorothy And not for the better, I fear. (Shaking her head.) Why cannot you ba natural your old self? George My old self? is dead. Dorothy Asleep, not Ah I that being dead. If it died, you would lose all that makes life worth living. George I have lost all, except on a thing a woman's heart. Dorothy What do you mean? George Once upon a time there lived a beauteous maiden who loved and was loved by a poor man. They plighted their troth, and he traveled into a far country determined to amass wealth wherewith to gain her parents' consent to their marriage. When he had departed a lordling rode that way, not a handsome knight, but one who bore an ancient name and of gold had much store. He sued for and won this fair maiden's hand, but my story does not end as fairy tales should. They did not live happily ever afterward, for you see, though the lordling won her hand, tha poor man still held her heart. Dorothy You have no right to say that. George I suppose not. (Rising.) Come, there is the music; one more waltz; let us dance out of each other's existence! Dorothy George, have some pity! If you only knew how I fought against it, but mother is on his side, and that means more than I can say. George You have told him about about me? Dorothy Yes; he can, at least, never sav that I deceived him. Oh, how I hate it all George Yet this is only your probation. In 48 hours you will be joined to this man for better or worse, until death Dorothy Don't torture me. What can X do? George Throw him over. Dorothy I have given my word. George Change your ruhid; it'8 a woman's prerogative. Dorothy I haven't strength. You don't know my mother. Fosition is everything in her eyes, and I dare not defy her. George Elope witli me. Dorothy Oh, no, no; I could not do that. George Why not? I am not poor now. We will be married by special license, then cross over to France. It will be a nine days' wonder, but that will die down, and we can live quietly abroad. Dorothy I must not listen to you. George Stay, remember you hold the happiness of three lives in your hand yours, his and mine. All three will ba wrecked if this marriage is allowed to pro ceed. Dorothy If I were a man, I might do it, but I am only a weak woman. Oh, don't tempt mo. George eet me tomorrow at 2 o'clock just within the Green Park gates at Hyda park corner. Dorothy It is useless. I dare not. George In 48 hours it will be too late. Then it will be "cannot" instead of "dara not." Dorothy Yes, but George There is no time to argue-" gome one is coming. Promise you will ba there. Dorothy No, I must not promise. X will not go. George You will change your mind. Dorothy No, no. George You will (looking at his watch). Twenty minutes pagt 11. I shall wait here until 12 o'clock for your answer. (Enter Lord Eastonville.) Lord Eastonville Oh, you are here, Dorothy. I've been looking all over for you. How do, Railton? Beastly crowd, isn't it? I've just been dancing a waltz. Makes a fellow beastly hot, doesn't it? George (abstractedly) Eh? I beg your pardon. Oh, yes, beastly. Lord Eastonville Come along, Dollie, I'll take you down to supper. That's done well. Beastly good job they do something well. Ta, ta, Railton. (Exeunt Lord Eastonville and Miss Stainton. Half an hour later eater Lord Eastonville.) Lord Eastonville Hello, Railton, still here? Miss Stainton has lpst' a glove. S3ys she thinks she dropped it here. And, oh! by the way, she sent a message to you. And a silly enough message it is. She said I had to tell you that she had decided to exercise a woman's prerogative. Ex change. Somber Thoughts.

("Fatty") Blinn has removed from North Topeka to Rossville. Every body in North Topeka knows Mr. Blinn, but few know his history and that "Fatty" was once famous in his way. The small boy of Topeka, who knows of hia ex ploits, has lost an idol, and the Ross ville youths of tender age have gained by the transaction. Mr. Blinn's way of being famous was as a circus performer. "Fatty's" chief charm to a circus man ager was the ease with which he lifted heavy weights with his teeth, lie waa the man with the "iron jaw." When he first ran away to join a circus, as, of course, he did, it didn't bother him at all to lift his salary with hi3 teeth. lie could even beat the circus owner in the salary raising act, but the magnate of the sawdust ring wasn't much of a star in that line, anyway. After young Blinn had practiced con siderably, he received $3.50 per week. Before he left the circus business he drew 100 a week for his services and something like $5 additional for every extra act that he did not stipulate in his contract. Mr. Blinn was a performer for twenty eight years. In that time he traveled with all the large circuses, including Barnum's, Sells Bros.', and others. He received hia largest salary with Barnum. He waa the first man to lift a horse with hia teeth and the first to put the act be fore the public. Such thinga as lifting a barrel of water and similar teats he con sidered as "resting." But the doctors told "Fatty" that he would have to stop, so he bid good bye to the glitter of the circus ring and the fascination of $100 salaries forever. Un til recently his 275 pounds adverdupois inhabited a small grocery store on the K, P. tracks in the western part of North Topeka, but now Rossville is to be the home of the man who has listened to the applause of admiring thousands. HE WAS NEARLY BLIND, The Man Who Was Run Over by a Rock Island Train. The body of the unknown man has not yet been identified, and it is probable that he will be buried in the potter's field north of the citjv The inquest was held this morning at Stoter s morgue. s y One of the passengers on the train that killed the man testified that he saw the whole accident from the car window. The engineer gave the danger whistle, but the man did not move on: tne track. He turned around, however. He seemed dazed. It has been discovered that the maa was totally blind in the left eye, and at least carnally blind in the right one Undertaker Stoker made the discovery yesterday afternoon, Ihe verdict of the coroner's jury was that the man came to his death by being struck by a Rock Island train. The verdict attached no biame to anyone. There is no clue as to who the dead man is. AN UNFORTUNATE WOMAN. Mrs. Riorrtan, Who Becomes Crazy Drunk So Frequently. Mrs. Riordan borrowed ten cents from a policeman yesterday to add to what money she had for a ticket to St. Marys. She seems to have changed her plans, however, for she purchased whisky and went on one of her horrible sprees. Officers Aye and Washburn arrested her about 9.30 o'clock last night. She fought and bit and scratched and swore in a manner that would make a sailor sick with envy. Finally Bhe was landed in the city prison. This morning she was too drunk to ap pear in court. She is a fit subject for an asylum. She seems to be totally unable to leave liquor aloue. hen drunk she is crazy. It requires the strength of sev eral officers to manage her. From her language (barring the profanity) she seems to have been a well educated woman. When drunk she talks of seek ing revenge for some imaginary wrong that has been done her. The woman is to be pitied. "NEW BOARD OF TRADE." A Rival Starter to the Old Place For Grain Speculation. The basement of the Columbian build ing will be a'veritable "board of trade" all over before long if the business con tinues to boom. The second commission house was opened this morning. The owners are Dr. J. B. Hibbon and J. W. Jackson and the firm name is J. W. Jackson Co. The new firm occupies room 4 which is just across the hall from the other firm which has been doing business for six months. New blackboards have been put in, new furniture, a telegraph line and the room looks very much like that of one of the large Chicago commis sion firms. W. J. Jackson, who is to have charge of the business, has been an operator for the Western Union Telegraph company in Topeka for four years. The firm is to deal through the Swartz-Dupee com pany at Chicago. During the past two or three months the single commission firm in the build ing haa had all the business it could take care of and their room is one of the busiest places in the city, and that fact prompted the opening of the new place. Fer Sot Paying; Fare. Last evening an trolley car conductor on the Garfield park line had a little difficulty with some boys and had two of them arrested. He claimed that the boys had not paid their fares. This morning in police court, after hearing both sides of the story, the Judge re leased the two boys. ALABAMl COMPANY EKGAGE HER To Tote a Part in That Beautiful Play. Silas Bowes Kow Studying for Her Debat. Miss Lottie Bowes who is very well known in Topeka and who has a large circle of friends, has been given a part with the Alabama company and has been in Kansas City several days with the company rehearsing her part. Miss liowea has had but one great am bition in life and that was to ro on the stage. She cared about nothing else, she talked to her friends of nothing else. Born and brought up in Topeka she re ceived a good education She has always shown great dramatic ability. From the time she was a little child her one am bition haa been to become one of the stars in the dramatic world. Her parents opposed her ambition, but she repeatedly told them that she had made up her mind to go on the stage and it was no use to combat the resolu tion. She was finally persuaded to wait until the present opportunity, when they consented that she should join the Ala bama company which was in Topeka last year, and which is one of the best companies in the country. Miss Bowe3 is a very pretty girl. She is seventeen years of age. Her figure ia one that any actress might envy. Her eyes are large and very blue, and her head is crowned with a profusion of blonde hair. She much resembles Delia Fox and her face i3 prettier. If stage appearance means anything Miss Bowes should succeed. But in addition to this she has more than ordinary histrionic capability. Very few people know that Miss Bowes is in Kansas City, br that she has joined the company, and an effort has been made to keep the matter a profound se cret. She has been assigned an impor tant part. ANOTHER GOOD ST0RI Told By Gen.' A. X.. Williams About His Life in Manltou. Gen. A. L. Williams' family occupy their own cottage at Manitou. The cottage is situated on a high point overlooking the village, and is, in fact, higher than any house near it, command ing an excellent view of Manitou from its site on the side of what is known as Agate mountain. Near the cottage Gen. Williams had built some time ago a pretty little pa goda, which is a delightful lookout for tired tourists. He spends much of his time sitting in this pagoda. One day not long ago, as he was con tentedly whiling away an hour in the afternoon there, two couples entered. They were young people and evidently in this instance at least, one of the young men was of the opinion that two times two was company and an extra one a crowd. So aftea a slight preliminary "ahem," he addressed General Williams, saying: "I beg pardon, but this pavilion is pri vate property;" "Eh?" said General Williams; "O, yes; but when I built it I thought I would not bar the public from using it so long as the privilege wes not too much abused." And then he calmly scanned the scen ery with his field glass once more, while the abashed intruders withdrew, the girls, General Williams says, laughing at the boys. One thing to which General Williams objects is the seekers after fame who carve their initials on his property, and one day entering the pavilion just as a young man was leaving, who of course did not recognize him as the owner, General Williams discovered some fresh cut initials. "Calling after the young man, he said: "Here, you have forgotten something." "I guess not," was the reply. "O, ye3, you have; you carved your initials up here and forgot to take them with you." The young man did not go back for them. Now a sign warns trespassers that in itials are not allowed. CATTLE ON KANSAS ATE. Young Man Arrested for Bringing; a Herd Up the Street. Last evening two farmers drove a herd of cattle up Kansas avenue. This is against the city ordinance and Officer Wellman, who was then going to roll call, overtook the farmers. He ordered them to turn off the avenue at Ninth street. The younger man became abus ive. The policeman arrested, him and this morning Acting Judge Furry fined the young man $15. His name is R, S. Graham from Carbondale. The herd of cattle caused no small amount of trouble. Several horses were frightened and elec tric cars delayed. NOT GUILTY OF MURDER. No Evidence to Prove That Hicks Nop man Purposely Killed Mack. Coroner F. W. Bailey this morning held an inquest over the body of Charles Mack, the young colored man who was accidentally shot yesterday noon in North Topeka. As there was no evidence given which would in any way show that the de ceased and Hicks Norman had ever had any trouble, the jury brought in a ver dict of accidental shooting. The young man was accordingly released by the police. The body of Charles Mack wa3 placed in the Second Baptist church, where the friends could view it this af ternoon. Thai Canninfr factory. Mr. Otto Kuehne says that Mr. J. B. Larimer's suggestion that Topeka is suf fering for want of a canning factory doesn't take into consideration that his works are amply able to take care of all the tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, etc., raised in the county. He says that they cannot really get aa much produce aa they desire. A visit to the plant in North Topeka will convince anyone of the ex tensivenesa of the concern, which ia a credit to the town.

MODJESKA ARRIVES. She Tells Again the Story of Her Treat ment in Poland. New York, Aug. 22. Mme. Helena Modjeska, the Countess Bozenta, arrived late last evening on the steamer Havel. Her husband, the Count Bozenta, was with her. Mme. Modjeska left this coun try about a year ago to revisit her home in Poland. She acted in various cities there for two months and then prepared to fill an engagement in St. Petersburg, having received permission from the govern ment to open a theater there. There were heavy advance sales of seats and the season was to begin on April 17. "Without any warning whatsoever," said Mme, Modjeska today. "1 received notice from the government that I must not go on. I had to cancel the engage ment. I tried to find out why the gov ernment officials stopped me, but the only reason they gave was that I had said something objectionable to the im perial government in a speech I made at the world's fair in Chicago. "I am convinced, towever, that was only a Bubterfuge. I went to Warsaw to consult with my friends, when I sud denly received an invitation to leave Russia within twenty-four hours. I may remain in this country permanently. I have a ranch near Los Angeles, Cal. For the present we shall stay two or three days at tha Hotel Imperial, and then go on a visit to Chicago to visit my son." KILLED THE BRIDEGROOM.
