ALL WILL HELP. Topeka Fair Keceives More As surances of Co-operation. Prizes Arranged by the World's Fair Commission. MALE A FKUIT DISPLAY State Horticultural Society Ar ranging for an Exhibit. Amusement Features to Agreed Upon Soon. lie The prospects for a successful fair to be held at Topeka in September are par ticularly bright. The management of the Topeka fair is backed by the state board of commissioners in charge of the Kansas exhibit of the World's fair at St. Louis, and by the principal in dustrial associations of the state. At a meeting- held last night in the Commercial club rooms the directors of the State Fair association met with representatives of the various state so cieties and discussed plans for exhibits. No official action was taken but the various representatives pledged the as sociations which they represented to take hold and help make the state fair as big an event as possible. Ry the aid of the various associations which have ben enrolled to assist there will be big displays in the agricultural, horticultural, poultry, live stock, dairy mid mineralogical departments. The $l.2fi0 offered by the World's fair commission has been divided in six dif ferent prizes for the different county exhibits as follows: First prize, $500; second prize. $50; third prize, $bjO; fourth prize, $125; fifth prize. $100; sixtn prize, $75. Each exhibit should include samples of all the cultivated products of the farm, orchard and garden cereal, in grain and in sheaf, grasses, textile and foliage plants and vegetables, wild and tame grasses, nuts and all kinds of fruits and other products that may be included. The Stat Horticultural society had a big i epres. titat ion at th meeting. The trustees of the society are here to meet with the World's fair commission and attended the meeting last night in a body. Thov were: William Cuttfr, Junction City; F. Holsinger. Kosedale; lb- G. W. Kohrer. Sterling; J- Koo inson El Dorado; F. L. Kenoyer, In dependence; and J. J. Alexander, of Norton President Fred Wellhouse and Secretary W. li. Barnes were also at the meeting. The r-prepentattves of the horticul tural sncietv promised to make a hand some horticultural display. Fred WelK house said that owing to the poor apple i ron this vear, it might be that the dis play might not be the best ever given ''VL?"rvohe and J. W. F. Hughes, of tV" State Poultry association, were present and gave assurance that the best- poultry exhibit that it was possible to make at that time of the year would be made by the State Poultry associa tion. John Currun was present at the meet ing to represent the state Dairy asso. oiation. "lie announced that his asso ciation would appropriate an eo.ti.il amount of money with the State Fab association to be used for prizes in that department. It is anticipated that the Improved Live Stock Breeders' association will make an appropriation of money to be used as prizes for special exhibits. Tli-3 association is planning to make a greater display than that of any other a ssoein tion. Now that the management of the To peka State Fair has the encouragement and the backing of these associations, the otlieers are in a far better position to make the state fair this fall a first class show. An immense amount of nriili is necessary to be done during the? coming two months and a half, and it has already been started off. The question of the amusement fea Hires has not been taken up as yet. It is planned, however. to make th-i amusement attractions outside the dis plays and horse racing of such a nature that they win he worth going" distance to see. lona 1,200 CARCASSES LOST. A Day's Output of Cincinnati Abattoir Iurned l'p. Cincinnati. June 2. Almost the en tire plant of the Cincinnati Abattoir company, one of the largest in this sec tion, was destroyed by fire today. The fire was caused by an explosion in the engine room. The loss is estimated by the captain of the salvage corps at $:;ii0.000, although President Ryan makes the estimate much less. The insurance is T-125.noo. Four hundred head of cattle and So hogs were slaughtered yester day. These are all consumed. The ice plant, which cost $S0.0OO. is either de stroyed or rendered unfit for use. The engineer nearly lost his life from the effect of ammonia fumes escaping. Winfield Chautauqua's Close. Winfleld.

An investigation has been ordered by the authorities at Washington of an alleged gold mining concern with offices in this city. For three months past, it is said, the con cern has been advertising freely in h the foreign newspapers. One of the ad vertisements, translated from a Greek paper published here, reads: "Have you five dollars? Do you wish to make them ten -within a. month, ons hundred within a year, and one thou sand within a short time?" The board of managers named in the advertisement is composed of men as serted to be filling high public positions, such as "senator of the state of Ohio," "comptroller of the United States treas ury," "treasurer of the United States," etc. There also appears the name of a member asserted to have been "former ly secretary of the Treasury." Xone of the names given, however, are known at all in public life in this coun try. It is alleged that the company haa disposed of considerable stock to for eigners, and the affair will be thorough ly investigated by agents of the treas ury department. The man w hose name appears as pres ident of the mining company declares that the advertisements are "hrimful of typographical errors." and that the per son named as "comptroller of thn treasury" is in reality a Kew York cus tom house official. READY FOB BIG RACE. Oarsmen in Good Form for Poughkeepsie Struggle. Poughkocpsie, N. Y., June 2!. When the thirteen college oarsmen looked out of their windows this morning they were surprised to find their race day opening with clear skies and to see the sun for the first time in 20 days. The wind was harclly more than a zephyr. While the conditions are fav orable there is no assurance they will continue so for the wind is in a natural bad quarter, the majority of storms along the Hudson valley being heralded by south winds. Never in the history of Poughkeepsie has there bern such a light attendance of college sympathizers and followers as appeared in the hotels and on the streets this morning. This may be due to the fact that the races are held late in the afternoon and there is plenty of time for the people in the cities up and down the river to get here by special trains before the first race is rowed. The flotilla of yachts and pleasure boats of all kinds began to arrive this morning, some of them coming from New London, where the owners had witnessed the Yale Harvard races yes terday. Among Them was "Governor Flower." the stste qunrantine boat, carrying Governor Oclell and party. The I governor wore the colors oi ioiumoia, I his alma mater. Cornell is still the favorite. Coach O'Dea of Wisconsin t said- to.liy: "I have been tryh.t to -insTill in my men the idea that th y win a race on I their merits and not merely on a chance i accident to the Cornell crews, but the public press and the people surrounding ithe men are continually pounding into I them that they have not any chance. and I am atraid that this atlects tie men's minds and lessens the chances of winning. I'.ut a race is won by the men at the ears, and not by the people mat ins the bets in the hotel lobbies." Hanlon of Columbia is, next to Court ney of Cornell, the most confident of all the coaches here this morning. He says that bis men, especially in the varsity ctew, have a good chance to win an that it is anybody's race. The Syracuse conch is confident that his youngsters in the fri sb.man race will give the other crews a. good light and stand a dianc to land first. Cornell puts thf, ho'tviest. crews on the river this after noon, and Syracuse the lightest. The fact that Cornell has the heaviest crews stiows a decided change of sentiment on the part of Coach Courtney as to the weight of the men behind the oars. Some years ago when Yale and Harvard were rowing with Cornell, Courtney contended that a light crew was better than a heavy one. and in fact he won two races from very heavy Yale crews. The programme for the day is as fol lows: 4 p. m. Four-oared race. 4:45 p. m. Freshmen. 6 p. m. Varsity race. kihgTbirthday. Edward VII Appears at the Cel ebration on Horseback. London, June 26. King Edward's birthday was officially celebrated today in London at the home naval and miii tiry stations. All the government buildings were decorated with flags, salutes were lired, the warships at all the ports dressed ship and the troops were reviewed. The main feature was the trooping of the colors on the horse' guards parade here, which the king at tended on horseback. This was the first I time he had lidden since his l ist illness. The parade ground presi nted a highly i pictures. pie scene. Queen Alexandra, I the Princess of Wales, the Duchess of i Albany, the puke and Duchess of Fife, j the Duchess of Oonnaught, the Princess I Henry of P.attenburg and their children j and the khedive of i-Jgypt occupied seats in the central w indows of the horse j guard building, 'while all the other vantage points were occupied try smart ly dressed women, cabinet ministers, member's of the house of lords and house of commons and others. Many Americans woe p resent, including the staff of the United States embassy and the Ajaierican rille team, who were un der the guidance of Major General Lord Charles Lismme. The king, in the uniform of colonei of the Grenadier guards, rode on the ground surrounded bv a brilliant staff and an unusually large gathering of foreign military attaches. As the king halted at the saluting base the massed bands played the national anthem. After an inspection of the troops the oeremony of trooping the colors was carried out. Their majesties returned to Bucking ham palace, heartily cheered by the crowds alone the route. Moved a Vote of Censure. Ottawa. Ontario. June 26. Mr. Pope, Conservative, moved in the house last night a vote of censure upon the gov ernment because the imperial govern ment was buying cattle in the United States for restocking the p.oer farms. Sir William Mullock, postmaster gen eral, and Sidney Fisher, minister of ag riculture, said the government had made all the representations possible in the matter, and therefore they regard ed the resolution as an attack upon The home authorities. The resolution was defeateii. SilTHJipAfjB. Former Postmaster General at 3Ieeting of Cabinet. Had Previously Taken Break fast With the President. FOSTOFFICE AFFAIRS. Occupy Most of the Time of This Last Meeting Before the Departure of Roose velt for Oyster Bay. Washington, June 26 The last meet ing of the cabinet before the president's departure from Washington tomorro.v was held today. Shortly after the mem bers had assembled, former Postmaster General Smith, who took breakfast with the president, was ushered into the cabi net room. Upon leaving the White House Mr. Smith, when asked if he had anything to say concerning the pnstofhee inquiry replied that his statement in response to the references to himself in the Bristo-y report would be given to the public to morrow. 1 The cabinet meeting was devoted chiefly to the closing up of routine de partmental matters in anticipation of the president's departure, although Postmaster General Payne occupied con siderable time in presenting the current situation as developed by the investiga tion now in progress in postofflce mat ters but in discussing his future plans relative to the investigation. In this connection it can be stated authoritatively that the reports that Postmaster General Payne contem plates retiring from the cabinet are un true. It is well known that his health is not good, and thee is of course a possibility that he might suffer a com plete, breakdown or that he might be forced by the imperative order of hi physician to give up his work. Put at this time the idea of retirement is not entertained by him. He has planned out his future work in connection with the investigation of Iris department and is anxious to finish it. The president, it is raid, has given expression to bis own feelings in the matter by saying that ne would permit him to resign only in the event that it became a mat ter of life or death. SUE FOR PEACE. Striking Chicago Freight Hand lers Heady to Surrender. Chicago. June 26. The freight hand lers' union involved in the Chicago Alton strike, sought a peaceable settle ment of the trouble today through the agency ot the teamsters' joint council taking the direction of the strike out of the. ha.nd3 of President L. J. Curran. A committee of three from the local un ions, appointed, at a meeting last night, met a committee of the teaiofcters to ar range plans for ending the strike, which they now concede will end in victory for the railroads. riesultory efforts w-re made at the freight sheds by the packets to prevent the delivery of freight, but owing to the vigiiance of the business agents of the teamsters no drivers were turned back and all freight was receiv ed and handled as usual. DEWEYS m DANGER. Captain Cunningham Thinks Militia Had Good Effect. Captain Cunningham of Company G, K. N. G, of Mel'herson. was at the office of Adjutant General II. S. Kelsey this morning making his report of the conduct of his company while engaged in guarding the Dew eys at St. Francis during the preliminary hearing of tiie murder charge resulting; from the shootingn affray between them and the Berry family. Captain Cunningham said "We had no trouble with the people of the town or from the ranches in the vicinity but the feeling against the pris oners ran very high and, in my opin ion, it was a very good thing th.-it the militia were on hand to preserve order. Although there was no demonstration I was Informed of numerous secret meetings in which threats against tiie Deweys were freely uttered and there was a strong under current of bitter feeling against them. Th? people of that country are ready and quick to act and it is altogether probable that the Deweys would have met violent treatment by a mob if they had bad only the protection of the Cheyenne countv jail, but we had them 'bluffed' by numbers. The prisoners are far safer here than they would have been if left w here they were." BANDS forslEET HIE A Row at Oyster Bay Over the President's Homecoming. Oyster Bay, L. I, June 26. An un seemly clash has been feared between rival committees of citizens on the oc casion of the reception to President Roosevelt on Saturday, but it is now hoped everything will be smoothed over and the celebration attending the presi dent's homecoming will not be marred by the di: sepsions of rival parties, Th original intention was to have a joint celebration of the president's re turn and the 250th anniversary of the set'lement of the village. This was abandoned because President Roosevelt found it would be impossible to return on June 25. the date set. Not satisbr-d with the abandonment of the double celebration, big posters have been put out by the oommittre. calling on the citizens to attend the 250th anniversiry Snt'irday morning. Both committees will have a brass band at the station to meet th" president. It is hoped one will be prevailed upon not to play. Presi dent Roosevelt is a member of the board of trade pnd iT is generally thought proper that the board should have charge of the reception. TO FNITE ALL LUTHERANS. The Missouri Synod Starts a Move ment in That Direction. Pittsburg, Pa, June 26. The evan gelical synod of Missouri of the Lu theran church, composed of the Lu therans of sixteen states and Canada, now in session here, has started a movement to unite all the Lutherans in the United States and Canada in n body.

Arthur Cornwell cf Hartford City, Ind, who was arrested on a charge of man slaughter in connection with the lynch ing of George White last Monday night, was given a hearing before Magistrate Hollis today. Chief Elack and Warden Meserve testified that they recognized Cornwell as one of those who were at the work house when the doors were broken and White taken out. Meserve testified that Cornwell said: "You had best give up the keys and save expenses." T.ie defense's witnesses were a num ber of members of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, which is holding a carnival at Shelpot park. They said he was at the carnival during Monday evening j and stayed there until it closed at mid- night when they returned with him to Wilmington. This precluded the possi- bthty of his reaching the workhouse during the proceedings there, although it is not denied that he went out with others and saw part of the lynching. Attorney General Ward asked that Cornwell be held in bail for trial, but Magistrate Hollis decided that there was no evidence to warrant such action and dismissed the defendant. Cornwell was greeted with loud cheers as he left the court room. ADDRESS l A CASKET Presented to Mr. Chamberlain by Constitutional Club. London. June 2G. The Constitutional club today entertained Colonial Secre tary Chamberlain at luncheon and pre sented him with an address enclosed in a casket in recognition of his services to the nation. Premier Balfour made the presentation speech. Referring to Mr. Chamberlain's fiscal proposals he said it would be absolute folly for the Conservative-Unionist party to make opinions on economic questions a test of party loyalty. The present economic position of the country demanded the most careful consideration. The country was now in the possession of an aeron aut, who kept his balloon in the air by throwing out sand bags. That was a very proper course so long as he pos sessed a suflieienoy of sand bags, but when these were exhausted it was time to reconsider the position. It must not be supposed that because self-government had been given to the colonies that they could be regarded as separate po litical entities. On the contrary they were integral portions of the British em pire. The question at issue was not new, but Mr. Chamberlain, more than any man, dead or living had given life to the expression of the idea of imperial unity. Mr. Chamberlain received a remark able ovation when he rose to reply. His hosts sang "For He's a Jolly Good Fel low" and then cheered Mrs. Chamber lain, who w-as among the spectators. The secretary opened his remarks with re pudiating the suggestions of personal competition between himself and Mr. Palfnur. remarking that he could not conceive any occurrence that could shake the political unity and friendship existing between them. He desired on the eve of a- great con troversy to publicly state that he be lieved the j i e", rship of Mr. Balfour was essential to the successes of the Union ist party. If the union alliance was dissolved" and weakened the "home rule snake was only scotched and "not kill ed," would come to the front. canIie'drained. Lakes Near North Topeka Are Above the River. Street Commissioner Snyder went out this morning to investigate the lakes left on the west side of North Topeka by the recent flood. He took with him the instrument men from the city engi neer's department and took measure ments on the level of the water. County Commissioner Haynes also went out with Mr. Snyder. Their in vestigations showed that the level of the water in the lakes left by the flood was a trille over seven feet above the level of the water in the river. The plan to drain the water off iu therefore found to be feasible. H. E. Gaines was also in the party. He is this afternoon investigating the law passed at the special session of the legislature to learn upon whom falls the duty of draining this water: whether it is the duty of the city or the county. "It is my impression that the county will have to do this work." said Com missioner Snyder today. "The bikes are in the county and are outside the city limits, so that it seems to me it comes within the juiisdiction of the county commtssionf rs." The Rork Island railroad is building a crossing over the raitroad track in order to make a road for the farmers to the north of town to come into the city by way of north Polk street. The To peka avenue road is a low marshy way, :m1 the quicksand left by the flood is treacherous. The city is fixing the roads so that the farmers will find a good road to get to the cit by way of. Polk street. Arrangements are being made to drain the inundated land and the work of digging a drainage trench will prob ably be begun next Monday.

House Members Fear Result of Hurried Action, Flaws in Measures Likely to Have Resulted. .NEARLY ALL ARE GONE Majority cf Members Left for Their Homes. Rest Are Awaiting Governor Bailey's Pleasure. Some of the members of the hou' arc- worried for fear that the bills whieri have been rushed through the special session will be found to he faulty or that they will be lost before they have gone through the necessary channels ti make them laws. At every recirlar session a number of bills are always introduced which ar-5 found to be faulty and never become law s. At this extra session several bills were introduced and passed for the pur. pose of correcting mistakes of the last session. The 59 bills introduced in ths house and the 27 in the senate wer handled in a rush. Some were killed ir the committees, and the only attention given any bills on the floor of each house was when a fight was mads orj them. Bills that had no opposition were sent through by fast freight. Some re. eive-1 only a majority vote with no votes to spare. Some bills introduced were hur riedly prepared. They were si ribbk-1 on sheets of waste paper with pencils. On some bills errors that would r,ava invalidated them were found and cor rected. How many errors have bee;i made and not detected is to be founo. It may he that none of the bills will be defective, but if that is the case it wpl inn ue wnat is expected. The closest attention was given Repre sentative Francis' bill for the pav an! mileage of the members of the legisii ture. It started with the sum of S:0'n. It was discovered that $12.n"0 was nec essary for both the house and senate. It was amended and sent back to the hou by the senate. The house passed the bill as amended, it was signed by Gov ernor Bailey last night. Then a ma jority of the members of both houses went home. A score of members of the house and a dozen senators lounged in t heir re spective halls thi3 morning waiting for the bills with the signature uf the gov ernor to be returned. There was nothing for the members Pi do and they discussed the session just ended. SENATE IS WAITING. Nearly All the Members Have Gone Home. The senate had most of its work done when it took a recess for supper Thurs day afternoon. A few more local bills were coming from the house but all th; important measures had been disposal of. The senate put in most of the after noon in horse play or its equivalent, pyrotechnics over a couple of measures that didn't pass. It was in st ssiori le than an hour last nisht. Most cf tn.-; senators went home Thursday either- be fore or after the evening ad.i-eii-nni--t so that only half a d-.zen or so vv-ri there for the final adiournm--nr t"day-. This afternoon a number of mtssag-3 were received from the governor ap proving the bills passed. So far he has not vetoed any of the bills passed by the legislature. WAR OF RACES Breaks Ont in Streets of Wil mington, Del. Wilmington, Del, Jun 26. A ri- broke out on the streets here la: last; night between whites and nrcea which for a time assumed serious pro portions. The arrival of a squad of police, however, quickly dispersed tne participants. Two arrests were mad". A large gang of negroes numbering probably 200 who had been marching up and down Ninth street were, chaiiene'.i by about 25 white men and in the. bat tle that followed over pvr shots w e-a exchanged. A squad of policemen urr der Captain Evans aid Sere-ant Me Dermott rushed to tiie scene and charged upon the ruob.

They say thrv have been badly abused -xr.'l that they don't intend to submit to u h abuse.

June -6. Bourbon county was visited by the heaviest rain in years. It comes in time to do much p..od to the corn crop, which had begun to nee.i rain. Much of the corn has been planted and replanted two and three times, and at this time there is much of it jird up. while many fields have been cultivated once or twice. With favorable weather there will be a fair cinp of this cereal. The wheat crop is 11 itah bitter than was expected, and while a f. v- tieifis have been cut the most of it will not be ready to harvest until next week. I Kansas Criminal to Colorado. I Manhattan.

Lincoln. June 2fi. Harvest will begin in tliis county next week, and an aver age cf about bushels to the acre seems to b'- expected. The wheat that was eoered during the recent flood is praetirally worthless, and is being burned or mov. ed to clear the ground for corn planting. Corn is somewhat backward, but in general looks thrifty and promises a good yield unless the early frost catches it. Many fields have been listed the secomi. and some even the third time. The M. W. A. will give a big log rolling about the middle of August. The atundanie is expected to run up into the thousands. Lincoln has a gasoline launch owned by N. B. Bees which makes trips of several miles up the Saline river. It was fiist tried in the recent flood, but came to gi i-f. and has only recon'ly been lejaned and put in operation.

Smathers Is After The Picket Good and Hard. Joined With Drake to Capture the Derby Winner. A SARATOGA CAMPAIGN McChesnej-'s Owner Said Have $300,000 to To Bet on His Own Horses Dar ing the Kaces. New York. June 26. E. K. Smathers, owner of McChesney and Dick Bernard, is decidedly anxious to add The Picket, winner of the American Derby, to his ronter of thorough breds. His New York agents are making' every effort to com municate by cablegram with J. O. Jungbluth, fart owner of the horse, who Is due at Victoria, B. C, within a few days from Hong Kong, with an idea of asking terms on the horse. It is quite reasonable to suppose that the Ameri can Derby winner will soon join the Smathers stable. New York racing en thusiasts will have an opportunity then of judging- of the quality of The Picket at Saratoga, whence the Smathers' sta ble will be shipped at a very early date. New York experts just returned from Washington park's initial day aver their belief in The Picket's ability to defeat any 3-year-old in America at even weights, poin.ir a mile and a half. Smatheis is preparing plans for a gi gantic campaign at Saratoga. He plans KetLing about him a very strong stable, so that he may have the pleasure of betting on his own horses. According to rumors at Sheepshead Bay, Smather.-s has joined his turf interests with Drake and his friends and it is said he will appear upon Saratoga's opening day with a $3uu.0u0 bank roll. EERFORD'S LATEST. Now Wants to Match Joe Gans Against Joe Walcott. Butte, Mont., June 2G. "If ever a box er was given the worst of a decision it was Youner Peter Jackson of California, in his right with Joe Walcott." said Al Hereford. Walcott got the worst drub bing of his career and was out in the last two rounds completely, but manag ed to stay only by clinching. Kvery man in the building yelled for Jackson, and when their referee announced the decis ion there was a storm of hisses. "I intend to force Walcott to fight Jackson again, but this to be 25 rounds. This fellow Walcott is certainly a lucky man. We gave them their own referee and also had to cut the number of rounds from 25 to 20. The articles tailed for U5 rounds, but Walcott would only box 20. If ever a fellow had it on a fiehter Young Peter Jackson had it on Walcott. 1 intend to keep Young Petor Jackson here and force Walcott into a fight, as I have Gans matched to light JHi'.Uly King here oh July 4, and if he refuses to fight Jackson, and will make any kind of a fair weight like he made for Kid I.avigne, and if some club of fers me a suitable purse. I will let Joe Gans. the lightweight champion of the world, meet hint." WILL MEET AGAIN. Jack O'Keofe and Jimmy Britt Get Date at Frisco. Chicago. June 26. Jack O'Keefe is to battle with Jimmy Britt for the third time. The rising Chicago pugilist will enter the ring with the idol of the Pa cific coast in the third battle for the white lightweight championship this July. With the exception of a few minor details the match was arranged last night. Sig Hart, the local lad's mnnager, re ceived a telegram from Alex. Greg gains, the San Francisco fight promoter, offering him the July date with Britt, and he immediately wired back his ac ceptance. The only hitch which remains to be settled is the selection of a referee. Greggains wired that the club's referee would act, and Pollock answered that Greggains himself would suit him. The Frisco promoter usually avoids referee ing before his own club, but it is be lieved he will not stand on precedence In this case. Meet at Yanger's Camp. San Francisco, June 26. Frankie Nell will join the Yanger camp and box with Hanlon's opponent Friday and Satur day. The move was made by Manager Hertz, who considered Neil's knowledge of Hanlon's style a valuable asset. While Neil is considerably lighter than the Chicago boxer he has a dashing method with the padded gloves that will furnish many an exciting bout at the beach for the balance of Yanger's train ing. Racing at New York. New York. June 26. The Shecpshead bay handicap for 3-year-olds and up ward at one mile, the feature of th card at Sheepshead bay, was won by th favorite, I'.lues. The Farrell horse opened at 6 to T. but owing to his erratic performances he was little played ami his price gradually drifted back to 2 to 1. Tommy Ryan Sick. Kansas City. Mo.. June 26. Middle weight champion Tommy Ryan is, ac cording to a letter received in this city from his wife, in a sanitarium at Bat tie Creek. Mich., suffering from the ef fects of a bad stomach, which has un dermined his whole nervous svstem. The champion had a minor bout on witn mi w a i i U and Stints of H Insects. 1 r U 1 f 1 i i a Wisconsin boxer, but he was unable to any longer stand even the lightest training, and was taken to Battle Creek in a weakened and highiy nervous condition. RENEWAL OF SUBURBAN. Race Will Practically Ba Run Again in July. New York, June 2S. The Suburban Handicap, for the first time in its his tory, is to be run over again. Owing to the general dissatisfaction at the out come of last Thursday's race, in which Major Daingerfield and Heno, tha popu lar favorites, were unlucky at the start, and from which the muddy condition of the track caused the withdrawal of many of the entries, the Coney Island Jockey club has decided on a renewal of the event, to be run on July 2. It will be the fourth race on the card. The Jockey club will add $10,000 to the subscription money, and the same weights, distance and eligibility rules as those which prevailed in the Suburban will obtain. To all intents and pur poses the Suburban will be rerun. E. R. Thomas will send the $60,000 Hermis to the post. William C. Whit ney, if the track be in fair condition, will start Goldsmith, scratched from the Suburban because of the heavy goins. The colors of Messrs. Whitney Dur yea will be morne by Irish Lad. and In junction will carry the hopes of the Keenes. Entries for the renewal close on June 27. CORBETT DEFEATS MURPHY. Knocks New York Pugilist Out in Six Rounds. Boston, June 2fi. Young Corbett, of Denver, knocked out Hughey Murphy, of New York, in six rounds at catch weights here last night. The contest was witnessed by upwards of 3,500 peo ple. Corbett nearly finished his man in the first round, flooring him twice in quick succession. The Denver boy's fighting was superb and he slasheA with both hands with telling effect. In the fourth round only did Murphy out point Corbett, and then he made things look a little doubtful. Racing at St. Louis. St. Louis, June 26. The card at the fair grounds, made up of six selling affairs, was a dull one. Orleans, in tin; last race, was the only favorite to win.

Formalities con nected with the ismance of a permit by the health department for the re moval of corpses may force the deten tion of three bodies on the transport Glacier, which has just arrived from Manila. Officers of the ship applied to the Brooklyn health bureau for the per mit to ship the bodies of Dr. Frederick A. Healer and two seamen to different parts of the country. They had no papers regarding the history of the cases, and the permit was refused. It probably will be necessary to send tc.

The dele gation which is claimed to represent 200,000 workers, will advocate to the president the refusal of recognition to the bid of Paul Herman for the money order blanks against the New York concern which has had the contract for some years, and by which Herman was employed until a few days before the bids were submitted. They claim that such recognition would "encourage un faithfulness and dishonor among em ployes." Canal Sentiment Changing. Washington. June 26.

Mr. Wismyer, of the Santa Fe, Has a Gold Machine. Yesterday a machine was tested and proved a success which promises a for tune to its inventor and the members of the company which has been building- it. says the Emporia Gazette. The invention Is a machine to separate the gold from tailings and sand which can't Vie made to pay in any other way. The inventor is Conductor Henry Wismyer. Several other railroad men are in p rested in the machine and were pres ent at the test which was made down on Second avenue and Commercial street in a carpenter shop. Mr. Wismyer has been working- on the machine several years. Some time ago he got it so it would work but now he has perfected nearly every detail and has applied for; a patent. The test was made yesterday on the poorest quality of pay dirt. In the pan this dirt hardly showed a particle of "color" and in the best gold separating machine hitherto known, this yielded only 42 cents to the cubic yard. In the test made yesterday it yielded $5.20 worth of gold to the cubic yard. The machine itself looks something like a half sized threshing" mac hine only somewhat more complicated. Mr. Wismyer refuses to discuss the principle on which the ma chine extracted the gold until he re ceives a patent on it. SELECTS A NAME. Rock Island-Frisco New Orleans Ex tension Plans. Chicago, 111., June 28. The Chicago, St. Ixuiis, Memphis and New Orleans railway company will be the name of j the Hock Island-f risco extension to New Orleans, and this road will take in the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, the St. I,ouis, Memphis and Southeastern t nd the New Orleans extension and terminals, making a system of about l.r.OO mips. This system will form a through line from Chicago to New Or leans and a water lvel line from St. Louis south, and it should be an im portant factor for the New Orleans trade and a strong competitor of the Illinois Central and Louisville and Nashville. It is the purpose of the Frisco-Rock Island management to make of New trleans an important export point, and the Frisco-Rock Island system of 15,000 miles of road will throw its export busi ness to New Orleans and get a long haul, inst ad of turning it over to the eastern lines for transportation to the Atlantic coast ports. It may be decid ed to include the Choctaw, Oklahoma and C.ulf line about 1.000 miles into the new system. which road would prove a valuable feeder for New Orleans bus iness. Items from Dodge City.

Rainters are making some much need ed improvements on the interior of the passenger depot and Harvey house. Superintendent Ayer returned Tues day from an inspection trip over the west end. It is said that the Santa Fe contem plates considerable additional Improve ments nt the "Picketwtre" bridge. It required the best efforts of a work train and nearly a hundred men to keep this bridge in service during the recent high water. Oodge City is still hoping for a day light local passenger train west. There is talk that it will be put on when the next time card goes into effect. So much rain has fallen throughout western Kansas and eastern Colorado that considerable soft track is reported, and it is said that some of the fast trains are not making schedule time on this account. liistpatcher Tom Covin is expected back from a two months' vacation about July 1.

Mulvane Tries to Discuss Judgeship With President. Washington, June 26. National Com mitteeman Mulvane, of Kansas, called at the White House Thursday and had a 15 minutes' conference with the presi dent, during which he brought up the matter of the appointment of a succes sor to Judge Hook on the district bench, and also touched upon ex-Senator Har ris' selection as one of the members of the isthmian canal commission. He put in a forcible word for Judge Smith, but soon discovered that the president has not given the Kansas judgeship any consideration. Nor would the president commit himself on the canal eommis- sior.ership. It is undei stood that Judge Hook will not resign from the district bench until he has been confirmed by the senate as a member of the circuit bench for the Eighth United States ju dicial circuit. F.x-Senator Harris is now in Washing ton, waiting for some action to be ta ken on the canal commission. It is pret ty well understood that the president has formed the commission in his mind, but is not yet ready to announce his choice. He is expected to do so, how ever, immediately on receiving news from Colombia, that the htst obstacle in the way of the canal has been removed. This news is expected at a compara tively early date. It is said that one of the places to be filled by a Democrat will go to Texas, and in this the friends of Senator Har ris are seeing a rather unfavorable sign as regards his prospects of receiving one of the appointments. Another thing that is raising an element of doubt regarding him is the statement attributed to the president during a recent conversation that it is his intention to go outside of the circle of former members of con gress to fill the commission. Mr. Harris is still hopeful, however. He is strongly indorsed by business in terests, particularly from the middle west, and has demonstrated that he is extremely popular with all the political elements. He and Mulvane had a short talk after the latter left the White House, but neither of the parties would discuss the character of the news from the White House. Mulvane left for New York last night. B0A11I) OF CONCILIATION. It Has Organized and Is Now Ready for Business. Wilkesbarre, Pa., June 26. The board of conciliation at the suggestion of the late anthracite strike commission was created for the purpose of adjusting any grievances which may arise between operators and their employes in the coal region, and wdiich is composed of three representatives from each side, met here and organized. W. L. Connell of Scvanton, one of the operators' rep resentatives, was chosen chairman, and Thomas D. Nichols, president of dis trict No. 1 United Mine Workers of America, was elected secretary of the board. The meeting was harmonious arid rules were adopted to govern the session. From present indications there will be no need to call in an umpire to settle titty disagreements among mem bers of the board, as both sides are pro ceeding with the work in a, reasonable and Just manner.

Two speeches made during the closing hours of the special session of the leg islature contained some clear-cut, ring ing, sensible, remarks. They were con tained in the words by the Populist senator. L. R. Wright, of Emporia, and the Republican senator, F. Dumont Smith, of Kinsley. Senator Wright pointed out the fact that in the past Kansas has often Placed itself in the role of seekers for aid and in more recent times boiistPd of her great wealth and resources. He truly said: "If indeed this money is needed for Kansas, let us give the money our the aid of the flood stricken people of selves I wish we could have sent back th" large gifts sent here by Fhiladel phia and N-w York and said, 'We thank yon for your generosity, but. must decline j'onr help because we ti''ii able to take care of our flood sufferers ourselves.' it is a shame, it will be a. lasting disgrace upon every senator who sitting here appropriates $12,000 fo his own use and sees his state holding out her hands to public charity. We had better spend JlaCOoO in making nn exhibition of manhood than in display ing our wealth at the world's fair next year." Senator Smith said: "Kansas hai oit. nir appeared before the United States as a public mendicant than any other locality in the Union. Hasn't the day gone by when we should be public beggars'.' It seems to me that something ought to be done to keep the state front being further under obliga tion to the outside world. If we can't pass this bill let us return the money we have already received and from now on let's stand upon our own feet." As cur readers know, the State Jour nal has from the time of the worst days of the flood maintained that the state could take care of its own people', and that an appeal for outside aid was not only unnecessary but would reflect upon Kansas and do the state injury for rears to come. The state had well nigh recovered from the wounds of the drouth and g; assh.onpers inflicted a quarter of a century ago and Bleeding Kansas" had .i."-'come a misnomer. The stale missed its groat opportunity to stand upon its dignity and its resources when it. app-aled to any but its own people for rt lief. W- were hurt a lit lle and scared a great deal. As a matter of fact, up to this week, the- city of Tnpeka has cared for those in distress by the flood without the la-tual expenditure of a dollar received from outside of the state. Some un paid tills to be sure will make it nec essary to draw- upon these outside funds now on hand, but had the con tributions of our own citizens been in creased by but a few thousand no necessity would have arisen for any of the $10,000 sent by New York city, the $r..ooo sent by Philadelphia. $2,sno sent by Cincinnati, and the various sums from the generous hearted peo ple of the east who naturally could not resist the urgent official appeals sent broadcast for aid. Indeed, it is quit" clear today that with the subscriptions from our own people and from the fraternities of the country allied with our local fraternities and benevolent organizations, the money sent here by general contribution from the outside could have remained un touched. Some time before the legislature con vened it appeared that it might be nec essary for the state in some way to loan or advance money to relieve some of. tile stricken people. However. before the lufcislnture actually met the flood suffev. rs had been so well taken care of, that the senate and house decided that public aid front the state was unneces sary. So. too, the world will believe by the legislature's action. It would have been a happy thing, however, had the legislature made an appropriation of say $7G,OH0, to turn back to the people of the east the money contributed from their means, and in some cases, their hard earned limited means for ths benefit of our own people. Isn't it a comforting fact for this great state of Kansas to realize that the leg islature came together on account of the flood and appropriated $11000 to its own members and employes, an amount which is $l."on larger yian the governor of the state received from the outside for the state fund in response to his appeal'.' To be sure that appeal brought a somewhat larirer amount of money to Topcka and Kansas City, Kansas. Among the contributions sent Gover nor I'.ailey today and credited elsewhere In this paper is $5 "from a St. Louis working girl." Think of it! Think of the sufferings in St. Louis near at hand. Yet the appeals sent out from Kansas were such as to wring the heart and probably exhaust the pocketbook of. woiking girls in other states. We do not know how the following sentiment will strike our readers, but it ought to m-ot a. warm response in words and a warmer one in cash. It is this: We ought to give cordial thanks for the outside aid and return every dollar of :t. This can be done by popular sub scription, if in no other way, and it is not uncertain that the counties under the Lcland act. published elsewhere, can not If gaily appropriate money for this purpose. In any event we can easily raise the money in Topeka to return alt moneys contributed to the Capital City from outside the state. The people of Kansas City may hold indignation meetings, condemning the governor because state aid was not vo ted, but they must remember that when they sent their repi esentati ve citizens to consult Governor Bailey and urge that a special session be called they said in emphatic words: "We do not want fin ancial aid. hut. simply legislation to en able us to help ourselves." So far as Shawnee county is con cerned, the ?:i.r."0 given us out of the state fund should be held intact to be returned to outsiders. We should have a considerable amount of money left out ot the general relief fund and the remainder can be raised by subscrip. tton. The State Journal would be glai'. to head such a list or to at least con tribute as much as any other one citi zen of Topeka. It might be added that ore gentleman said today he would subscribe $2h for such a purpose. It is fortunate that the two counties hardest Hood-hit fire the wealthiest counties in the state. Their greatest wealth, should be in their self reliance, self help and self respect. Does this appeal strike you, fellow citizens? CHAKGK OF KOBBEKY Leads to Arrest of a Sophomore at Harvard.

To peka Santa Fe railroad came out op enly as an accuser of the Union Pacific railroad befeue the interstate commerce commission today, its representative taking a prominent part in trying to prove that the lattar company had been allowing F. H. I'eavey it Co., rebates in the form of elevator service at Coun cil Bluffs and Kansas City. Kan. That the Santa Fe was the instigator of the inquiry was hinted at by J. C. Stubhs. of the Harriman system, who criticised "the practice of the commission investi gation charges against railroads in cases where the inquiry is based on se cret information furnished by business competitors." At the opening of the session Attor ney Gardner Lafhrop .announced that I ne was present as the representative of the Santa Fe railroad, and that he desired to answer the insinuation; i made by Mr. Stubhs as to the actions of Vice President Paul Morton in insti tuting this investigation. He declared that, in view of the fact that Morton was out of the country when the in- uuiry started the insinuation was nr.. j warranted and reprehensible. Lathrop .also referred to Stubhs' attack on the commission as an insult to an honov able body and un-American. i Freight Traffic Manager J. A. Mon roe. of the Union Pacific, admitted that an agreement is in force by which his road pays to the Peavey concern at the points mentioned ll4 cent per hundred pounds of grain loaded into the Peavey i elevators at those points. This, he said, amounted to $5, $6.25 or $7.50 according to the capacity of the car and tile ar rangement, he asserted. was worth while for the railroad company, but was not remunerative for the elevator concern, and was, he believed, reasonable and not discriminative. Frederick Heffel finger. Minneapolis, a partner in the Peavey concern, held the same view with reference to the 1 cent payment. He told of the business done by the dif ferent elevators and in both crises, he said, only grain from the Union Pa cific road was handled.

Th" SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, CA, V F FOR HARVEST FIELDS. Topeka Free Employment Agency Is Busy. The city free employment bureau is jusy this week with the harvest help a-oposit ion. Inning the past two weeks more than HKi pei sons have registered at the bu i au in the office of the commissioner of lections at the Auditorium for work in :he harvest fields. The persons regis tering have given their home addresses -Tom points as far east as Massachus etts and New Yoi k. Nearly all of the New Knglar.d states are represented in the list of those wishing to go to the aarvest fields. Nearly all the eastern states are represented and as far north ;fl Minnesota. Not many persons from ."c-ii.ts west of the state of Kansas have applied. li.uisday was the first day on whiett the excursion rates for harvest ban is jf one tent a mile were good.

A few of the minority the house held a small meeting this morning to talk over the acts of the bodv. i "My county," said Representative Linn of Cowley county, "sent several j hundrtd dollars to the flood sufferers ar.d twenty-one boxes of clothing. The I people of Cowley county are not salis j Red with that, but they expected a re lief measure to tie i'assed." "I am sure that the western part of the state was in favor of a relief hill." I said Representative Tatum of Kd wards I county. "1 think such a bill should 'have been passed, and I was in favor of such a bill and would have voted i tor it if I had a chance." i "I came here with a Bill prepared to appropriate S.I.O.OUU for the relief of the flood sufferers," said Representative Hale of Rush county. 'It was turned down in the committee. Some of the members argued that it was unconsitu tional and others that the people of tha counties did not need the aid contem plated in the bill. So far as I am con cerned I can not see that such a bill would he any more unconstitutional than many bills passed by the la st session to appropriate money ;:nd to which there were no objections on the ground of being unconstitutional. Some of tha members argued that the bill carried too large an appropriation and that the' state could not afford it and others that even that appropriation would not lie sufficient to render much relief. But ttiat amount would have hem better than none. This ST'MiaO would have bfe.i a ta?; of two mills on the dollar. There is a disposition on the part o: some to blame the governor tor the bill not going through, but the governor had nothing to do. in my judgment, with the legislature failing to act on th" appi opriation. and no member of the. legislature should hold the governor responsible for tlv members' failure to act on anv bill. If a member conscientiously- believed a bill ought not to pas he should consider it his duty to vote against it. If he believed, as I do. that the people along the valleys needed some temporary relief, he should ha', e voted for it without regard to an other man. I hope that the people wili live down this calamity, and no doubt many of them wiil, but the situation seems to me so deplorable that the legislature should have granted them relief. I am not blaming any legislator fcr anv stand he took for rr againit have been passed for the relief of the flood sufferers an. 1 hoped such relief would lie granted." TABIC OF SKXATE ACTION. The members, of the house this morn ing likened the action of the senate in defeating a flood appropriation relief bill and then passing a resolution thanking the people who had donated to the relief of the sufferers to the min ister who went to see a widow who was in destitute circumstances. He prayed, with lvr and spoke words of cheer and left. On his way from hev house to his home he met a man on a wagon taking a load of provisions to the widow. The members of j nian was swearing at his horses, indignation i "Where are you going?" asked the minister. "I am taking this load of pro visions to the wblow and I'll get there if these horses wiil travel," said the man. "Your donation would be all right." said the minister, "if you but had grace to go with it." "Rut the senate didn't have the grace to keep still after refusing aid to the destitute," said Representative Hale. Union Pacific Washout. Clay Center. Kan., June 28.

Another specimen of inefficient legis lation reached the attorney general's of fice this morning in an application for an opinion upon the meaning of the marriage law passed at the last regular session. The law prohibits the inter-marriaR-p of imbeciles, of persons who are insane or have b"en insane or the marriape of any sound minded persons with one who is or has been of unsound mind or of chiidren born of insane parents. The law is all right on its face but it contains no clause providing for its enforcement. In the marriage law previously in force the probate judee, when issuing; a licnse to marry, is directed to examine the applicant or witnesses and to make the applicant take oath that none of the conditions of relationship, which are a bar to marriage, exist between the con tracting parties. The new law is sepa rate from ihe old one and is not equip ped with any provision under which the probate judai- may secure information regarding the mental qualifications of the applicants. If he happens to know that one of the parties is unqualified to titer the marriage contract he must, of course, withhold the license, but he has no authority to examine witnesses or compel the applicant to take oath on the subject. The attorney general will i give an opinion on the law. BAILEY IS SATISFIED. Work of the Legislature Governor's Approval. Has "I think the legislature has served the necessity of the state at this time as well as could have been expected," said Coventor Hailey this afternoon when asked his opinion of the work of the special session. "I am satisfied with its work. "1 think they have no criticism to not favor the passage of a bill appro make of any of the bills passed. I did priating direct relief to people who have suiTeied from the1 flood. No one is in dire distress at this time and such an appropriation not only was not neces sary lull would have opened the way for all sorts of demands upon the legis lature in the future. "My attitude u;ion flood relief legisla tion is well enough known by this time. All I need to say is that 1 am satisfied with Ihe result of this session and be lieve that the people of the state will approve it more generally than if the legislature had seen fit to make further a ppi opi ia tions." So far 'rovernor Bailey has vetoed none of the 52 bills passed at the spec ial session. He has appended his sig nature to seven of them and it is be lieved all the rest will be signed. This is a reasonable supposition as only two are general bills and unless some error has been made in the drafting of the local bills they are not likely to be held up. L'lUTAILS HAVE FALLEN. I Chinamen Appear in Dres3 Suits and j Without Queues. j New York, June 26. A complimentary i dinner was tendeied to the American friends of Chinamen last night at. Bel i iuonico's by 1he New Yoi k section of 'the Chinese ket'orm association. It was an odd and brilliant affair. For the first time in the history of Chinese in this ;eity ie any a hundred Chinamen i pen red in diess suits in a body ap and v lthout queues. Dr. Walter Prooks Urouner. the toastmaster, made the extraordinary an- nouncement that eOO pigtails" had fall j en in Chinatown in the iast month as t'ne result of the propaganda of reform. This, he said, was sanctioned by the Chinese emperor, upon whom Chinamen look as a second Oeorge Washington. J. M. Singleton, president of the New York section, delivered an addiess of welcome.

He said he wanted to see all over China postofriees, trolley c.rs, public schools, and all the insti tutions which make this country great in promoting communication, civiliza tion and progress.

It is said that even the facts published by such well known Amazon travelers as Schutz and Holzhausen have been confusine: and it would certainly not be possible to derivo correct iih'as from their reports when both of them confounded Para, rubber with ordinary caoutchouc and treated the rubber product of Brazil as though it all came from one species of plant. As the yearly harvest of thes iwo preat varieties of rubber haw reached the astonishing quantity of 57.nit,itOO kilograms, of which iu'.Oun.Oei, come from Africa and S1.flii0.no0 from Bouth America, these products are one of the most important articles in inter national trade. tr will doubtless in. as to read as i"l- j terest read' rs therefore to know what iAutrust Kail!, r has just w ritten lot "arrant shall lis 'I'etermai. -s Mitu iluntren as to tht. surer for redemp- I methods o. rubber colleetine- in Hray.it lie speaks of the two chief kinds of rubber produced in Brazil and then Rives his attention first to that kind which is of the best quality and largest quantity nn.l conies into the trade tin der the name of Bara rubber or F'ara hna. In Brazil it is known as borrai h or seringa: a man who spends his time colleetine: this rubber is known as f rinerueiro. The Para rubber tree iSiphonia elastics) is found almost everywhere in the Amazon lowlands in greater or less quantities. The Siphon! has a straight silver-colored trunk and attains a height of from 60 to SO feet. Its crown of foliage is not Jarge in com parison with the size of As trunk. It has a brilliant dark frreen leaf and the tree is a really beautiful specimen of veeeta tion. When the srrinRneiro has found a Kitfiicient number of Siphonias to betjin work be has no sieat preparation to make before rubber colleetine; beuin Th" only preliminary labor consists in dealing- a narrow path leading from tree tq tret'. Tile serinirueiro leaves his hut before sunrise, or between 4 and a o'clock in th" mornine-. and sroes to one of his istradas.

By 1 o'clock in the afternoon he re turns to his hut and the sap collection of the day is over. Tne next day but one the same set of trees will yield an other suppiy of sap. The afternoons are devoted to the sfcond part of the operation, which is the smoking process. The smoke is ob tained from the fruit of a certain palm as dry and hard as a stone, which in Brazil goes by the name of shevon. The collector kindles a fire of dry wood and over it places a larp-e inverted tin fun nel. Thrciieh the small opening of the fanned tie drops the fruit upon the fire un til he has filled the funnel, fie stimulates the fire with a pair of bellows and in a fi w mom nts a thick rlcud of smoke is f merging- from the small end of the funnel. The fruit chars, but does net burn, though it emits great quantities of smoke. A few- nn nut perlVc ing process begins. The seringueiro has plac-d the rubier aaji in a gri at bo-pi beside him. lie holds in lis hand a very stout, round stick, over which he fiours from a little cuft a quantity- of the sun. He waits a moment to permit the drops to fall hack into the bowl, and then holds the stick, which re tains moHt of the sap fioured over it, in l the white smoke as it pours out of the j tunnel, rotating" the stick between his i ha nds. It takes eareeiy fift'-on seconds for the sap to become coagulated and yellow in c.-lnr. This is the f-rst layer of rubber on the stick, and the process is repeated again and again, layer succeeding- laver. until the stick holds all the cured rubber that can conveniently he handled. Then the man puts the big rubbfr ball Into a clamp and pulls out the stick, not without much mus cular exercise. As a rule, one of these balls of Para rubber weighs about fifty LX til; jr Men's Men's Men's J j f; Stretchy Cambric Shirts Seam Night with two l Drawers Shirts Collars 1 1; 35c 45c 35c I if fl 1 i m ur Establishment Is Brim Full of Some of these we will mention bejow Hundreds of others may be seen when you visit our store.

A search for lost treasure in Lake Hu ron has bet'n organized. Moreover, a wrecking company, well informed as to the vessels that have gone down in the last fifty years, is preparing for a sys tematie'search alter the lost cargoes in the gieat lakes. There are-no cargoes of gold and silver to be looked for. as in the waters where sank the galleons of Hpain. but there are cargoes of copper which are almost as valuable. The copper mines in the lake regions have been worked for nearly sixty years. WitKin that period many vessels have been lost.

The success in that one case has j led to a systematic search for other cargoes. Lake Huron has a depth of r,H0 to l.oon feet. It is assumed tnat more vessels have been lost on Lake Huron than on Lake Michigan, some of these in compat ati vely shallow water, or within six or seven miles of the Michi gan shore. In the last twenty years 1.0S9 vessels have been wrecked on the frreat lakes, with cargoes valued at over $7,000,000. A good part of this was per ishable merchandise, but many of the cargoes were of a kind not to be in lured by water. Chicago Inter-Ocean. Fourth, of July Excursion to Ottawa Santa Fe.

He has melted down numer ous trophies, caskets, cups, and what not, to make a gold and silver dinner service, which is vastly admired- There is even a rumor, which we distrust, that he has joined an amateur dramatic club. As for matrimony, the commander-in-chief is already engaged by report to many ladies, and we are forced to re mind the public that, under British law, polvgamy is forbidden even in India.

The practice of the in tt: rotate commerce commission of in vt'i?tigating cliarges against railroads wht re the imiuiry is based (n secret in formation furnished by business com petitors, was criticised today by J. C. Stulibs, tra the director for the Ilarri man systimi. Mr. tstubbs appeared before the com mission to defend the Union Pacific company on a charge that the corpora tion has been allowing F. H. Peavey tic Co., giain (icalers at Omaha and Kan sas ity. rebates in the form of elevator srvicf. The information against the Union Pacilie ra ilroad is said to have been furnished the interstate commerce commission by a hih. official of the Atchison. Topeka Santa Fe railway, who declares he cannot c ompete unless permitted to grant similar rebates to grain shippers. (itrjt-ral Counsel Baldwin of the Union Pacilie asked to s-e the complaint filed against the company and Chairman K napp expla ine'l that no formal com plaint had been filed. He said the com mission was acting upon information obiaincd secretly, "The commission is making this- in vestigation lor its own information," said Chairman Knapp. "We are fre quently omp'. lied to pursue this course where the pt rsoii supplying us with the information has insufficient evidence to warrant the filing of formal cha rges. We do not know that this company has violated the. law, but we feel it our duty to inquire into the matter in the interest of public policy. If the practice of your company is legal then other roads may desire to do the same thing." J. C. Stubbs then said.; "Are we not o be given an oppor tunity to faee accusers? If we ire ehargt d with a. thing we want to see the complaint ami present our defense in the rt'trular manner. It. is possible for an oiiieer of a competing road, even the Atehison. T-ipeka AL- Santa Fe, to go to Washington, take the commission into a closet, make charges against this J mad and then have this commission or j der an investigation and place the bur I den of proving our innocence upon us. I protest acains.t the method of doins i business. We have all the information you desire and are prepared to give it, j but we would prefer to have our accuser eome out and fiuht in the open." Chaiiman Knapp replied that, in the j ahsenet- of wriit-n chai ges, the commis sion woul,l appear as complainant. lie i then ordered the inquiry to proceed and J. A.

The evening was spent in dancing and at a late iiour j supper was served. J A gruesome find has been unearthed I by the Hood in the pasture of the old j. B. Evans place not far from the resi dence of O. F. Whitney on Buchanan street. At that place there seems to i have been at one time a burial place, i though no modern inhabitant has any S knowledge of such a burial place. A Ihaif a do7,m or more skeletons have i been w-i.-h( d out and there are indica tions of others. Some of lb.es-- are of 'children and some of persons of mature age.

These brines were uncovered near the lake that now covers a part of the west- in portion of North Topeka, and much of the country wt st of it. A portion of this ground was formerly an extensive clay deposit and was the site of the large brick yard worked and owned by .T. S. Morse.

An Ohio j lady says: "I learned something valu j able about coffee when I went home. I had been sick all the time w ith heart trouble and headaches and used a great deal of medicine without getting better. One time I went to my old home on a visit and there found my father and mother using Fostum Food Coffee and both feeling so fine and well. I -'They both begged me to try Postum i and I finally did so to please them and j to my great surprise I began to im- prove immediately. After using Postum 111 place o; eonee lot a mh i i mn n, heart trouble stopped entirely and did not return except when I tried some coffee while on a visit to a friend's house. Now we use Postum exclusive ly in our family and husband and the children cniov the fine drink as much I as I do and we are well. 1 "There is a lady living near us who had beer sick for years, doctoring all the time and not getting any better. We sold her a package of our Postum an- now th-y use it all the time and she is better than for years before and says i Postum did it nil. Her name is i "I enclose the names of "my father and i mother who are fine healthy examples of the advantages of using Postum in i the place of coffee." All the above names given by Postum Co., Battle Ivrreek, Mich. A new airship was exhibitediyesterday afternoon in the yard of Hunter's hotel, at Coney Island Boulevard anil Eigh teenth avenue, Brooklyn. Only a small number of people saw the machine, wltic h as yet is only a model one-fourth the projected size, and estimated to car ry 40 pounds' weight. j The gas bag. which is 21 feet long, is I shaped like a turtle back, or, mote ex I aetly, since it is divided fore and aft by j a partition, like half the kernel of a I pecan nut. At each side are large 1 w ings, stern tins, and at the back a sail j shaped like a bird's tail to control the i upward and downward motion. A large rudderlike sail provides the means of changing the horizontal direc i tion. and the motive machinery is fur- nished by two propellers run by a gaso--j line engine such as is used on niotor j cycles. The framework is of aluminum, the sailwork, which is voluminous, ot silk. The peculiarity of the new model, I which is the invention of Lawrence E. Iare, is the Hat undersurface of the gas j bag and the number of aeroplanes i w hieh lie below the gas bag and inter- vene between the engine and the gas. j The a"roplanes are of fireproof, d ma terial, and are expected to arrest any sparks which may ily from the engine, i since such sparks have been fatal to i other airships and sometimes to the I navigator. Mr. Dare says also that th-1 use of propellers with eight blades will enable him to use shorter bladt s than those cf the ships heretofore built with two bladed propellers, and at the same time makes it possible to run the engine at one-fourth of the speed which has i been necessary in other cases, thus re I ducing the heat and danger of sparks, j The gas used in the balloon is hydrogen. The prow is to be protected by an I aluminium cap. The operator's seat, from which everything is controlled, swings li'om a bar in the upper frame work beneath the gas bag, constituting, the inventor thinks, an element of safe ty in case of a fail. Beneath all is a truck with wheels for running on the ground. The model shown has not yet taken the air, but Mr. Dare says he hopes to i have it fly next Sunday. If it does ni ne will build a fifty-foot ship. big enough to carry a man. on the lines ot the present model, save that steel tubing wit! be substituted for aluminium. Mr. Lare was born in Harrisburg. Pa., and has been a theatrical manager. He thinks he has made an advance in airship construction, and he has fitted his machine so w ith a shifting gear that the engine first starts the wheeled truck forward on the ground, and when sufii i cient momentum has been developed turns on the air propellers. The tail i piece and the balloon will do the rest, he I thinks, and the ship will rise into the air and proceed forward at the will ot the navigator. For coming down the gas bag is pro- vided with a valve.

When nature had created ail other animals she decided to brins forth something that could jump 'SI feet without touching the grass. The kangaroo, which up to that time was a bob-tailed animal walking about on four legs, offered himself to be experi mented upon. He had aims and ambi tions and aspirations. He wanted to rise above the hog and the hyena. Na ture took liim in hand and made him j over its you see him tonight.

As I stepped off the cars this afternoon I observed 17 men whittling away at shingles in front of a grocery, while a jackass stood looking on and nibbling at a r oadside thistle.

B. Lewis. A $30,000 MAUSOLEUM. Sages Will Have One Built Like a Greek Temple. Mrs. Russell Sage has arranged for a mausoleum of Westerly granite in Oak wood cemetery, Troy, X. Y.. in the form of a Greek temple, the cost ot which will approximate $:jn,00). The decision was arrived nt while M"s. Sage was at Troy hist week to address the graduates of the Emma Willard seminary, the alma mater for which s're has done so much. The temple will be oblong in shape, like the Jay Gould mausoleum, but whether the pillars are to be tinted or smooth has not been de cided. Work will shortly be begun, the temple to occupy the center of the Sage lot. the granite shaft which marks the burial place of Mr. Sage's first wife to remain undisturbed. "The idea of the mausoleum is no new one." said Mrs. Sage, when seen at her home, 504 Fifth avenue. "It has been in our minds for three years. The acci dent of my being in the city brought it to a head, that is all. Mr. Sage agreed with me that now was as good a time as anv to have it attended to." She" laughingly disclaimed any felan choly tendencies. "I am much too husy with the unset tled state of things in my home and the moving before me to think very much about vaults. Oak. wood has always ap pealed to me as one of the most beauti ful spots 1 have ever seen, and it will satisfy rue to know that the mausoleum is there." The cemetery contains a crematory, but Mrs. Sage has no favor for that method of disposing of the dead. "It seems to me against all Bilical teaching to destroy the bodies of our dead," she said. "And, at least, it is against nature. A mausoleum is of course, a reminder of death, but .t is good that we should think of it some times and prepare for it." New Y'ork World.

Towns in Trees and Cities in Caves and Craters. It is a mistake to suppose that the whole of the 1,5 uiV of the earth's in habitants live upon the surf pee of the world. They do not. Some of :hem dwell beneath it. The people of Tupoelel have no need to travel far when thy want to take a salt water bath. The town is built on piles, which have been driven into a submerged coral reef situated far out in the Torres f traits to the south of New Guinea. Opposite this extraordinary set tlement, on the mainland, is another vil lage that is perched high in the air among the gigantic palm trees with which the coast is irmgvd. The object of both com munities in choosing- thes" curious sites for tht.ir dwellings is identical. They de sire to assure themselves against being surprised by their numerous enemies and especially they seek safety from the prowl ing Hyak head hunters. i'eople afflicted with diseases not infre quently develop strange fads as regards the choice of their abiding- places. Not long since, for instance, a number of con sumptives agreed together to dwell within t he dismal depths of t he mammoth ca ve, Kentucky. In pursuance of this extraordi nary project, building material were act ually carried into the cave at considerable trouhle and expense, and a tiny subter ranean village sprang by degrees into ex istence. When it was completed it was in habited by thirteen families. iPtt. as might have been f nre-s-'en, the profound silence and eternal darkness of the .l.iee exerted upon the unfortunate in habitants a deleterious effect which far outweighed any benefit derived from t he undoubtedly pure. dry air and equable temperature. Some of the invalids died, others gave up the experiment in disgust, and the house so strangely and laborious ly built, are now given over to tramps, out laws and other similar chance sojourners. Better luck has attended the littie colony of people similarly aftl ietc-d who a iew years back, settled within the landlocked crater bay which constitutes practicallv the whole interior of" the volcanic island of St. I'auJ. in the Indian ocean. Here they are entirely protected against all wind, no matter from what quarter of the compass it may chance to blow while hot natural baths"at varying temperatures, are always available. The very ground, too. is kept at a constantly equable heat by the latent volcanic lires within. And, U:stly, food of ail kinds is plentiful and varied, and in cludes such curious and unusual delicacies as sea ehphants' this an I tails, crayiish and ot her Crustacea in endless variety, and the yuceulent 'Rerguelen cabbage." No wonder that many of those who nave been cured have preferred s. -tiling on the island to returning to their homes. Tit-Bits. HIS SAD MISTAKE.

A problem of profound interest in our natioim 1 economics has been recently pressed home upon our people by the great eastern drouth and the still more disastrous western floods.

S Evidence That We Give Our Bodies More Food Than Needed. The director of the Sheffield Scientific school, Prof. Russell H. Chittenden, throws a little light on an old question in the Popular Science Monthly for J'lne. lie mentions a rbserepa ncy w hich he has observed between fact and the ory regarding the amount of food a man should take. Volt of Munich and Atw a ter of Middletown, Conn., for instance, have set up certain standards, which are fairly close together. A. person doing "moderate .wink," say these experts, should take from 118 to 12." grams of proteins and enough fats and sugars to taise the total fuel value of his rations to between ,'i.uOu. and 3,r,nfl "large calor ies." For "heavy "work" they recom mend a diet yielding" from :1,.'I70 -to -boiia calories daily. Careful experiments with a laboratory assistant at Yale showed that 4.7 grams of proteids, with fat and sugars sulliiicot to develop only Ktn"i ealoi ies, would keep him in splendid condition. He maintained bis. weight perfectly, and in.'! physical tests in the Yale gymnasium in a surprising fash ion. Ihe comparison suggests the pos sibility that the food allowances ot Voit and Atwater are wasteful in a pecuniary st use. and hamper the system by involv ing unuecissary w.aU in digestion and elimination. J.a i hahly no fact in every-day life is better establish,!! than tiiat the major ity r,f people eat too much. Medical men are continually declaring that far more harm comes from dietary excesses and carelessnass than from starvation. A large variety and amount of sickness result from that cause. Moreover, even wln-n he is in apparent health, a man's activity is often sensibly impaired for two or three hours by a hearty meal. Professional mi n in r.arlioular are thus affecte.l. PHiciciioy is influenced by other factors. Kxereise, ventilation and sleep, or ihe lack of them, tell tin one's capacity. Nutrition ..U pends on the way in which one eats as well as on what he eals. Again, taste or some social obligation, rather than a recognized m ed of nourishment, w ill often dictate the character of rv. n an ordinarily ab stemious man's renast. If he wants to get the largest amount of work and the best quality of work out of himself, however, he is almost sure to cultivate moderation at the table, at least until the conclusion of his day's labor. Whether the example cited by Prof. Chittenden should be accepted as a standard is another question. Pnssibly ihe requirements of that individual are exceptionally small. Noone man's ex perience can he safely taken as a rule for others. Two persons of the same weight and podorming precisely the same duties, and eating their toon witn equal deliberation, may differ sufficient- fiVMILLAN'S SIDE.
