TWO CENTS HE IS WELCOMED, iDr. Frank Knight Sanders as l'resident of W ashburn. New Ex cutivels Received With Elaborate Ceremony. MANY GOOD WORDS. Governor Sfubbs, Chancellor Strong and Others Speak. New Thomas Gymnasium. Is Dedicated This Afternoon. After four hours of clouds and drizzling rain the sun broke out this morning in all its glory and flooded the beautiful Washburn camjius with light and warmth, displaying to the hundreds of visitors, alumni and students of the college a scene never Dr. Frank Knight Sanders, Install before witnessed in the history of Washbum. The college "promenade" the college walks, the driveways and the buildings were one mass of flags, pennants and college colors, the blue and the white. Huge arches of ever green were constructed over the walks and driveways and the walk from the main College avenue en trance to the' college chapel was one mammoth bower of beauty. At 11 o'clock the first exercises of the inauguration of President Sand ers as the new president of Wash burn college took place. With music and cheering the students of the academy marched out from their building near the center of the campus and journeyed over to Rice hall at the extreme east. Here they were joined by members of the lower college classes all marching in time with gaily decorated umbrellas carry ing pennants and flags of all kinds. From this building the march was extended to Carnegie library where the seniors in full uniform (caps and gowns) and the alumni joined the procession. Thence to the college office building and the faculty dropped into line. This grand pro cession was led across the campus from one building to another; at each place it was augmented by some class or some college organization. At last the parade was joined by Presi dent Sanders and Governor Stubbs and with these honorable gentlemen In the rear the procession started for the college chapel mid the cheers of the students and the crowds which 1 had gathered to witness the pre liminaries to the inauguration cere monies. When the leaders of the procession reached the entrance to the chapel building they parted and lined up with removed hats and bowed heads from the entrance out to the center of the "quadrangle." As the proces sion shortened the bowing line Irngthened and finally Governor I Stubbs and President Panders formed the turning point of the end of the line and marched abreast down through the gaily decorated passageway and the colors and gowns of students and fac ulty. The line fell in behind and the procession in order of President Sand ers and Governor Stubbs leading, fol lowed by the honored guests of the oc casion, then the trustees, the faculty, the alumni, the seniors, the lower class men, the students and the academy scholars. It was one of the prettiest scenes that ha3 ever taken place on the Washburn campus or in Topeka and represented the beginning of the era of greatest growth in the history of Washburn and the greatest gathering of educational notables and citizens in Topeka for some time. In the College ChapeL The exercises in the chapel were almost as impressive. The invoca tion was riven by Rev. Leon C. Schnacke, D. D. The Washburn Choral society under the leadership of Professor Penny and comprising fifty voices from the college sang I "Great and Marvelous Are Thy Works." Following this Reverend Francis L. Hayes formally in behalf of the trustees of Washburn con ferred the degree of presidency of Washburn college upon Dr. Frank Knight Sanders. PhD.. D.D. In speaking "of the honor conferred upon Dr. Sanders, Dr. Hayes gave three reasons for the choice of its new president. First because he was scholar of note and distinction. Second his religious beliefs and workings. Third, his dig nity combined with friendship and leadership among the students; and J"ourth, his Interest in the equipment and the upbuilding of "Washburn and her interests. Dr. Hayes paid many trib utes to the past record of the new president and presented the degree mid the deafening applause of the crowded chapel. Governor Stubbs was next Intro duced. He congratulated Washburn on her possession of such a well equip ped man for president, congratulated the state of Kansas for such an addi tion to her force of capable and learn ed men, and told of the value that Washburn had given to the state and to the nation. "The commonwealth of Kansas is greatly indebted to the men who have made possible such an insti tution as Washburn college," said Governor Stubbs. Chancellor Frank Strong, LL. D.. of the University of Kansas, then gave an address of recognition on behalf of the educational institutions of Kansas. He brought to Washburn the congratula tions and best wishes of the University of Kansas and all of the state institu tions. He said the friendship between Washburn and Kansas university had been long and constant and hoped that it would continue as long as the two schools existed. In his talk of the needs of the college, Chancellor Strong touched the hearts of the Washburn ites when he said that some means should be provided for the continued endowment of the college and suggest ed that some help be instituted for its needed equipment and instruction. Chancellor Storng talked as though the state of Kansas would do a wise thing ed as President of W ashburn Today. in helping such an institution as Wash- burn and Governor Stubbs shook his head in approval. President John H. T. Main of Grin nell college, Iowa, spoke in behalf of the colleges of the middle west. He congratulated the school on her loca tion in Topeka the "beautiful and pro-, gressing capital city of Kansas." He said that Washburn could be of state and national influence in such a situa tion and gave wonderful views of its future. He said Washburn ranked among the first in the middle west and was one of the really first-class inde pendent schools of the United States. The recognition speech in behalf of the alumni of Washburn college was given by Robert Stone, B. A., Wash burn. Mr. Stone told of the strug gling days of old when the college fought in blood and difficulty for ex istence. He told of the old founders of the college and their work and stated that the Washburn of today was just the institution that the founders had dreamed of when they were put ting the college on its feet. Dr. Flsk's Humor. Professor Daniel M. Fisk, D. D., of the Washburn faculty, head of the de partment of sociology, talked in be half of the faculty of the college. He started out by welcoming Dr. Sanders to the most handsome faculty in the world. This brought down the chapel and for five or ten minutes Dr. Fisk displayed some good wholesome wit showing to the new president that the faculty is provided with a sense of humor at least. Then the professor gradually drifted off on to other themes and before he had finished the student body, the guests and the visi tors were all attention. Dr. Fisk is possessed with a peculiar line of ora tory which has made him a strong fa vorite over the state for years. His expression and his enunciation com bine to form a most pleasing result. He ended by crowning President Sand- ers in the language of the students- King Frank the First" and he hoped that the line would rule over Wash burn forever. Herbert Edgar Chandler, of the so phomore class of the college welcomed President Sanders in behalf of the stud ent body. Chandler is an orator of rare ability as a student and his speech was well worded and spoken. He prom ised Dr. Sanders the full support and spirit of the Washburn student body. Dr. Sanders' Address. The inaugural address by President Sanders was one of the best "down to The Thomas Memorial the grass roots" given in the Wash burn chapel for years. The president has been with the college the past year and during that tima he has made himself a great favorite with the stud ent body. Kis dignity and still his friendship and leadership among the students has carried great weight and he is looked upon with a peculiar "hero worship" style. He acknowledged the great honor bestowed upon him as president of such an institution as Washburn and said that the president of a college nowadays must be a" lead er among a well organized group of schools and student organizations. He spoke of the veteran work of Peter MacVicar in behalf of the college and paid a tribute to the past president, Norman Plass. President Plass doubled the student attendance, the equipment. the faculty and the endowment during his six vears with the college. President Sanders said that 'here were three things which attracted him to Washburn: 1) His former work in religious lines made him feel as though he should take up the work at Washburn. (2) The traditions and splendid past history of the college and (3) the great southwest and its wonderful possibilities. In speaking of the needs of Washburn President Sanders summed them up as: Dormi tories for men and women, indepen dent equipment for the college and complete separation from the college, laboratories for natural history, pipe organ for the chapel, a building for the exclusive use of the music depart ment, a great chapel building for big gatherings of both students and city, an increase in the salaries of instruc tors in order to give them more than a living and a chance to purchase books and equipments of their own, a shortening of hours and courses In order to give the faculty members a chance to travel and do research work and an Increased endowment. Gymnalsum Is Dedicated. At the dedication of the new Thomas gymnaisum at Washburn college this afternoon, Jonathan Thomas, the donor of the building, was the central figure in the exercises. Mr. Thomas was in troduced by Dr. Sanders, president of the college. Mr. Thomas said: "We are met here today to dedicate this new building to Washburn college. 'All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy' is an old quotation but true. With the idea in view to improve the minds and physical capacity of our students of the present day and the future our future Kansas citizens, my beloved life partner and myself decided that we would like to spend a little money for this purpose. It was done as a me morial to our son a Washburn stu den, who loved athletics. "The superintendent who had charge of the construction of this building, and his helpers, have worked faithfully and have spared no pains in the erec tion of this building. It has pleased us. We hope it will please you. "Mr. President, Trustees, faculty and most of all students, we now turn over to you the keys of this new building. We hope you will like it, and that it will ple.y a part in the broadening of the Washburn students, and thus serve the purpose for which it was given." President Sanders, in his usual apt manner, gave the address of acceptance on behalf of the trustees of the college. Following a dedicatory prayer by the Rev. Stephen S. Estey, the prinelpa address or the afternoon was given by President William F. Slocum, of Colo rado college. President Slocum, who is well known as a speaker, delighted his hearers by his happy manner of ex pressing himself. The Washburn girls' quartette sang the selection, "When Summer Comes," after which the benediction was pro nounced. The doors of the new build ing were then thrown open and a large number of people took this occasion to inspect the equipment. This evening the commencement con cert to be given by the members of the faculty will be held. An excellent pro gramme has been arranged and the public is invited to attend. Dr. Sanders to Have Assistant. At the annual meeting of the board of trustees of Washburn college it was decided to secure a financial as sistant for President Frank K. San ders. This will not mean that the duties of the president will be lessen ed, but it will tend towards more ef fective efforts in securing the neces sary funds for conducting the institu tion on a larger plane. A member of the board stated that probably Wash burn jS doing a greater work in' com parison to the funds available than any denominational college in the country. Dr. Sanders will spend the summer in Kansas in the interests of the col lege from a financial standpoint. It is not so much an Increase in the at tendance that the board is at present interested in, but in obtaining more funds with which to improve the fa cilities of the institution. The faculty is complete with the exception of two music teachers, who will be chosen at a later date. One of these teachers will take the place of Miss A. Troutman. Mr. Wm. R. Arthur, a practicing at torney df Chicago, will succeed E. D. Osborn as dean of the law depart ment. Dean Osborn will continue his connection w-ith the college having no intention of giving up his work there as rumor had it. Mr. Arthur was a member of the class of '99. Referendum Is Invoked. Los Angeles, June 3. The prin ciple of the referendum has been successfully invoked by 4,000 citizens who signed a petition preventing the city council from making operative an ordinance allowing the Home Telephone company to increase Its rates. The ordinance will be sub mitted to the people at the Decem ber election. Gymnasium Dedicated Today. JEFF DAVI PARK. Memorial to the President of the Southern Confederacy Is Dedicated at the Dead Lead er's Old Home. ORATORY AND MUSIC Patriotic Speeches and a Barbe cue on the Program. It Is the 101st Anniversary of Kis Birthday. Fairview, Ky., June S. Among the trees which have grown up about the birthplace of Jefferson Davis since the year, early in the Nineteenth century, when the Davis family removed to Mississippi, the Jefferson Davis Me morial park was dedicated today. Northeast across the state is Hodgen ville, near which Lincoln was born eight months after his great opponent. In September, 1907, when the grey ranks of Kentucky's famous "orphan brigade" met in Glasgow, Ky., at the grave of General Joseph H. Leads, their commander, former Governor Bolivar Buckner of Kentucky, broach ed the plan of the Jefferson Davis Memorial association. Subscriptions were started. The women of the south aided nobly and when all but $4,000 had been raised to purchase 17 acres at Fairview, General Bennett H. Young, commanding the Kentucky di vision United Confederate veterans ad vanced that sum and made the memor ial possible. Oratory, music and flowers made to day notable. A basket dinner and a barbecue were provided by the people of Todd and Christian counties, which share equally the town of Fairview and when Col. W. A. Milton as chair man in the absence of General Young, opened the meeting, the homestead of the Davises was crowded. General Young, a former lieutenant of the gray, wrote the chief address of the day, and it was read by Colonel Milton. He asserted that every southern state should rear a shaft to Jeff Davis, whose character and sufferings he dwelt upon. He paid high tribute to Lincoln, saying that the time had cdme when men might speak kindly and truly of the past. 1 The plan is to raise $30,000 more, with which to build a memorial tem iple to contain all the records, of the confederacy and to remodel a two story residence on the Davis farm to house the widows of confederate sol diers. Other Celebrations. Norfolk, Va., June 3. Today the 101st anniversary of the birthday of Jeffer son Davis, was observed in Norfolk; Portsmouth and other.

Californians Reach Chicago to Com pete in Track Meet. Chicago, June 3. Stanford universe ty's track team, leading contenders for honors in Saturday conference meet at Marshall Field, arrived Wednesday as the advance guard of the outside stars who will compete in the big event.

NIGHT OF RIOTING A Policeman Is Shot and Scores Are Injured As Result of Street Car Strike in Philadelphia. FIVE CARS BURNED. The Strikers Are Not Responsi ble for the Trouble. They Were Kept at Headquar ters by the Leaders. Philadelphia, June 3. There was a sensation this morning when the news spread that the subway and elevated system had been tied up by a strike. This proved untrue, how ever, an accident putting the system out of business for a time. All of those injured in last night's rioting will recover. About 100 are under treatment In hospitals. The station houses were filled to overflowing with persons arrested for rioting. As illustrating the ugly feeling en gendered by last night's rioting there were more minor disturbances this morning, probably than at any time since the strike began. The strike sympathizers devoted their energies to the harassment of the strikebreakers and others who are running the comparatively few cars that are on the street. Each car car ries one or more policemen, but few passengers, the public evidently be ing afraid to ride. Thousands walked from choice, however, as means of "getting even" with the transit com pany for its recent increase In the rate of fare. Four hundred additional substitute policemen were sworn in this morn ing. Timothy O'Leary, assistant superintendent of police, who has been in active charge of policing the city since the strike began, said to day that if necessary to preserve or der 1,000 extra men would be en-j rolled for police duty. j Last Night's Rioting. One policeman shot and probably fatally injured, nearly a hundred persons bruised and battered either by policemen or strike sympathizers, and five cars wrecked and then burned. Is the result of an attempt on the part of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company to operate cars last night by imported strike breakers. The point at which the most ser ious rioting occurred is known as the Kensington mill district. In this section of the city there lives nearly every nationality, the foreign ele ment predominating. When the traction company announced that cars would be run last night.- nearly all storekeepers in the Kensington district, knowing the temper of the residents there, closed their stores promptly -at 6 o'clock. As one car a,fter another left the car barns, crowds stood on the street corners in sullen silence. Fin ally a boy cried "Scab!" and- im mediately he was pursued by a policeman who was riding on a car. As the officer started for the boy, the crowd closed in upon him and so quickly was this done that he was unable to draw his revolver. His weapon was taken from him and it is believed to have been the same re volver with which Policeman Levy was shot a few minutes later. In less than half an hour seven cars w-ere wrecked, five being com pletely demolished and burned. The police officials were powerless at the moment to combat the mob, but a riot call brought half a hundred blue coats to the scene and the crowd was driven back. But the damage had been done and there was little need of the preservers of the peace so long as no attempt was made to run cars from the barn. Policeman Is Ducked. There were also incipient riots at the car barn at Sixteenth and Jactoon streets in the down town disfct, and at Forty-ninth street and Wood lawn avenue and Forty-first street and Haveford avenue in the West Phila delphia district. The crowd grew men acing when an attempt was made to run cars from the down town barns. A policeman who endeavored to quell the disturbance was ducked in a water trough. Twenty-five plain clothes men and policemen were rushed to the scene on a special trolley and, after the cars were run back Into the barn there w-as no further trouble. In West Philadelphia several arrests were made, but in many instances the policemen wcrj unable, to get their prisoners to the station houses on ac count of the crowds. In West Philadelphia, dynamite caps were placed on the tracks and crowds stoned the strike breakers when they attempted to bring out cars, fore ng them to return to the barn. In the down town section conductors and motormen were pulled from their cars and their clothes torn from their backs by mobs of strike sympathizers. In some cases the terrified strike breakers had to be taken to private houses and guarded by police to save them from bodily harm. Five Bie Riots. In Kensington there were five big riots and all evening Kensington ave nue, the main thoroughfare, was lined with a howling mob. So far as can be learned the striking street car men themselves did not take part ir the rioting. They wjre. kpt confined by their leaders in their vari ous meeting places. The imported strike breakers proved to be a disappointmeat to the company. Many of them deser;ei thei- cars at the first sign of trouble and left them standing in the street at the mercy of the mob. Several of them applied to the strikers for aid to return to New York, saying that they .haa been brought here under misrepresentations. At least one hundred persors have been more or less seriously injured. Strike Extends to the "L." Philadelphia, June 3. At 10 o'clock this morning the elevated and subway system of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company which had been a bulwark of strength for the company since the strike began became tied up by a partial strike of its employes. The trouble- started when a' westbound train reached the Forty-sixth street station. Here the crew deserted and the train was run to the Sixty-ninth street terminal by men sent out from that point. Subsequently other crews deserted their trains at the Sixty nint". street terminal. The company's officials would not discuss the situation, but the ticket windows were closed and the crowds on the platforms took to the streets. The company gave out a statement that at 9 a. m. it was operating 716 cars, two hundred more than at the same time yesterday. BANQUET TO URIU. At Which President Taft Makes a Felicitous Address. Washington, June 3. At a banquet given last night in honor of "Vice Ad miral Urlu of the Japanese navy at the Metropolitan club, the speeches all contained warm expressions of friendship for Japan and discredited the idea of any conflict between this country and Japan. President Taft expressed his great pleasure at being present and said he had come to testify by his presence to the warm friendship he felt for the emperor and the people of Japan. His remarks were vigorously ap plauded. The president said It had been his good fortune to know those respon sible for the government of Japan more intimately than those respon sible for any other government except his own. He spoke of his several vis its to Japan and said the wonderful qualities of the emperor of that great country as a ruler are shown In his making such marvelous selections of the men who carry on the great work which that empire has done in the last thirty years. (Applause.) "I think," the president said, "the truth is that I wore out my welcome in Japan. I was overwhelmed with hospitality every time I went there and no expression on my part and no act of hospitality could be equal to, or satisfactory for the debt I feel for the cordial reception I received on those four visits. "It happened that in 1905 we visit ed that country at a psychological moment when Mr. Roosevelt's name was in the mouth of every one of the Japanese people as interesting him self in bringing about an end to the great war and I venture to say that no person, except a Japanese public man himself, ever received a greater popular welcome than the party of which I was one, but of which. Miss Alice Roosevelt was the chief mem ber." The president tendered to Admiral TXriu his sincerest congratulations on the high position he had attained in the Japanese navy. Then he added: "There is no place of interest now except the senate chamtier and we are anxious to make other places inter esting. (Laughter.) The heat tonight is something we ought not to pass ov er without comment. If it continues it may serve its uses and I hope that if Admiral Uriu is exposed and feels somewhat inconvenienced by it he should know it to be a necessary ele ment in working out with us constitu tional government." (Laughter.) JURY ACQUITTED HIM. After the Prisoner Had Signed Confession of Guilt. Chicago, June 3. A story of ill treat ment at the hands of the members of the police department so worked upon the feelings of a jury in Judge Clifford's court that it acquitted Max Kaplan of a burglary charge, even after he had confessed to the crime, and his at torney had offered to allow his client to plead guilty and submit to a sentence of a year In the house of correction. Chief among the injustices heaped upon Kaplan at the Harrison street station, where he was confined, was the "cold water cure," according to his story. He claimed that for five days he was prevented from sleeping by policemen who at intervals of an hour, threw buckets of water over him in his cell.: He also charged that he was beaten with "black jacks" and that officers knocked out several of his teeth by this method. After five days of such treatment, he testified, he was taken before Assistant Chief Schuettler. Sev eral officers were in the room, and fearing further brutality, he stated that he made a signed confession. NEGROIS LYNCHED. He Shot a Circus Man at Frankfort, Kentucky. Frankfort, Ky., June 3. John Maxey, a negro, who shot B. C. Bowers, a circus man, last night, was taken from jail here early today and lynched. The jailer resisted the mob, but the door was broken down. The negro was taken out and hanged to the St. Clair street bridge. Bowers, the wounded man, is still in a critical condition. Bowers's home is in Valdosta, Ga. Maxey narrowly escaped being lynch ed at the time of the shooting, and a panic among the crowd in the big tent was narrowly averted. -The shooting was the result of the negro's efforts to get into the tent under the flap without a ticket.

Top Weight Assigned to James R. Keene's Celt. ORAL BETTING GOES Big Force of Police Will Look out for Bookmakers. The Value of Today's Stake Is Only 5,000. New York. June 3. From an eligible list of 19 horses, but six have been named over night to start in the twenty-third renewal of the Brooklyn handicap, -which, will be run today at Gravesend and should there be no added starters when the bugle calls out the thoroughbreds for the parade to the post it will be the smallest field that ever faced the barrier in this classic event. Top weight for the mile and a quarter journey has hpn nnctirr tn James C. Keene's Commanilo which has yet to take the dust from any horse save his Own nniwatAn stable mate and brothei--1n-hini Colin, though the handicap perhaps iit ueen partial to mm only by one pound, Celt will, be asked to pick up 127 pounds as against 126 allotted Plaudit colt. King James, Frank Gill, Restigouche, High Private and Berkeley are tha other entrants. By reason of the fact that last year Celt romped home a winner of tne .Brooklyn in the record time for the race of 2:04 1-5 and in so dolncr defeated a manifestly better lot of horses than will compete with him today, he will in all probability be established a prime factor In the bet ting, though there will not be those lacking who will pin their faith to the other entrants and especially to the Hildreth horses. King James and Restigouche, the first named of which has earned the plaudits of the mul titudes and rich stakes for his owner from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and across the border in Canada. It is not improbable that Hildreth will also starts the grand old campaigner Montgomery, wnicn made a show of the field In the second race at Bel mont park yesterday. Montgomery will be asked to carry 112 pounds. it -.is stated that although the authorities will have an ample force of uniformed and plain clothes policemen at the track today there will be no effort made by the police to. stop oral Detting ana that only those persons who record bets are likely to meet with opposition. The- Brooklyn handicap is the fourth race on the card and the horses will ffo to the post about 4 o'clock. The vfllni of.- tha. stalra la but $5.000 $20,000 less than It was last year. The indications point to fair weather and fast track. GRABS MONEY AND RUNS Is Caught by Detectives Who Were on the Job. Chicago, June 3. Benjamin, Miller, alleged to have attempted to extort 1300 from Mrs. Benjamin Porter, whose husband, a life insurance agent, disap peared mysteriously several weeks ago, was arrested here today. According to police, Miller wrote an unsigned letter to Mrs. Porter stating that for $300 to be secretly left over a door knob at Taylor and Halstead streets, Mr. Porter would be returned to his home. A wo man dressed to resemble Mrs. Porter visited the address early today and did as requested with the money. Miller, it is charged grabbed the money and start ed to run away. Detectives broke from hiding places and captured the fugitive after firing several shots. Miller told the police he had been hired by a man to get the money. This man, he said, he had met only a few days ago. The man said he had stab bed the husband of a woman who was in love with him and that the woman wanted to give him some money. He was afraid to go for it, and paid Miller to do the job. The disappearance of Mr. Porter has been a mystery -which has baffled the police for several weeks. He carried with him $200 which he had collected for the company which employed him. No trace of him has been discover. HE STOPS TALKING. Dr. Cleminson Has Decided to Fight the Case Against Him. Chicago, June 3. Police Captain Kane said today he had practically abandoned hope of securing any fur ther admissions from Dr. Haldane Cleminson, charged with the murder of his wife. "Dr. Cleminson has secured an attorney and apparently has made up his mind to fight every inch of the case against him," said Captain Kane. "We are now investigating several clews, among them the doctor's alleged relations with women. There are many of these, and we have learned that Dr. Cleminson made no secret of them to his wife, except that he used no names." Although Judge Clifford refused tc release the prisoner on a writ of habeat corpus yesterday, it is said a new move is being planned in the courts be fore another judge, probably on the grounds that there is no legal evidence on which to hold the accused physician. Meanwhile the police plan to remove the prisoner from the police station to the county jail. Two detectives from the state's attor ney's office were detailed to assist Cap tain Kane in his investigation. River Cnts a New Channel. Pine Bluff, Ark., June 3.

BURNUM PITCHED, TOO Locals Had Bases Full Three Times Only Scored Twice. Three Cosily Errors Helped Swell Grizzlies' Tallies. Denver, Col., June 3. Inability to hit Pitcher Ford of the local team was responsible for Topeka's downfall in the opening game of the series here yef-terday. Ford was touched up for only six hits by the Sunflower aggre gation. Kaufmann on the other hand, was comparatively easy and was com pelled to retire because of the bom bardment by the locals In the fourth Inning, when five runs had been scored.

Umpire Clears. NOTES L J 1 WHERE THEY PLAY TOMORROW, Topeka at Denver. Lincoln at Sioux City. Omaha at Des Moines. Wichita at Pueblo. Two hundred fans of Toneka. were badly disappointed at tha final result of the Topeka-Denver game at Denver, wnen tne returns were bulletined in the State Journal window. Throueh an error in the telegraph service furnished tne btate Journal by he Western Tin ion Topeka was given 9 runs in the rourtn inning, wnen the correct score for this inning was no runs. The fault was entirely with the telegraph com pany. Once before the Western Union reported an erroneous score of 10 runs for Topeka in a game at De3 Moines, when there were no runs scored. The State Journal regrets that th errone ous information reached the bulletin noara, Dut the fault was not ours. The matter has been taken up with the different telegraph companies, and no further complications are extiented. The State Journal will at all times endeavor to give the fans all information about the game, through the medium of the puiieun window and the special tele' phone service. Dr. Andrews is booked to take chares of the Oklahoma City team today. II ever the fans had any respect for the OKianoma city it is now. Here's hop ing the doctor wins the pennant. It is reported that Dr. Shivelv has offered the Joplin franchise to Snapper ivenneay oi t. Joseph. However, the Joplin papers state that the franchise nas ceen purchased by Tom Hayden. The Globe, with its usual record of things that are not so, says that the town has a good chance to get a berth In the Western League next season in the place of Lincoln. The Washington outfield doesn't look much like the aggregation seen here this spring. McBride is the only one left. Donahue has succeeded Freeman at first, Delehanty takes the place of Unglaub, and Shipke has been suc ceeded by Conroy. With McBride at Ehort Washington has the only strict ly Irish inneld in the big leagues. Thompson is said to be doing pretty well behind the bat for the Denver team and he may be kept in that po sition, providing Kelly, the new infield- er delivers the goods. The papers in the northeastern sec tion of the circuit are still comment ing on the surprising record made by the big Patricio Bohannon while on the trip of the Grizzlies Billy Hallman, the veteran player, who has been doing the utility stunt for the Pueblo team has been turned back to Denver. It now develops that he was merely loaned to the Indians. Hallman is one of the oldest players in the league in point of service. Charley Adams: who pitched Pitts burg to two victories last Monday, played with the Denver team in 1907 and went from there to Louisville ana then to Pittsburg. He was always regarded as a good pitcher. Walter Wasson, who was with the Lincoln team Hast season, is now num bered among the regular box .artists of the Denver team. Ducky Holmes has sold Outfielder Cruikshank to the Waterloo club of the Central Association. Cruikshank was not needed after the acquisition of Edmuncison. Jones seems to be the best pitcher on the Lincoln team. Tne pedagogue has his spit ball working all the time and has won the most of Lincoln's games. Paul Cobb, who has already been canned three times this season, may become an Oklahoma City player. He is now visiting in Enid and if he can get what he wants In the way of re muneration, he will play. Paul tried out with St. Louis, then went to At lanta, then to Memphis, getting his walking papers at all three towns. Sioux City Tribune: Mullin is gain ing in favor on account or nis gooa umpiring. He makes a mistake once in a while, the same as they all do, but he is away above the average of Western League umpires. He and Haskell- are all right. Don't know how Clark and Wheeler are. Put they are both being roasted to a finish. The Wichita Beacon says that Topeka would still be in the brush if it were not for the work of the Wichita team in ep.ttine them out. Not that it makes any difference, but it might be well to state the truth. Topeka was wanted. and Wichita was taken in just because of her geographical location, iwo mars neo when O'Neill made his great effort' to get Topeka in, Wichita wasn't even considered. .Tack Holland is trying to get some pitchers for his Wichita team. All the men he nas Deeii uicncrins Huu.aic tw high priced. Chick Kirk, the Iowa university ath lete, who was signed by the Des Moines team has been shipped to Waterloo in the Central Association, tie sun De- longs to Des Moines, however. Pubelo Chieftain: Topeka played lots GROOMING COUNTS But K oannot make a Fair Skin er a Clessy Coat. Women with good complexions connot be homely. Creams, lotions, washes and powders cannot make a fair skin. .Every horseman knows that the satin coat of his thoroughbred comes from the animal's "all-right" condition. Let the horse get "off his feed" and his coat turns dull. Cur rying, brushing and rubbing will give him a clean coat, but cannot produce the coveted smoothness and gloss of the horse's skin, which is his com plexion. The ladies will see the point. Lane's Family Medicine Is the best preparation for ladies who desire a gentle laxative medicine that will give the body perfect cleanliness internally and the wholesomeness that produces such skins as painters love to copy.

Ask Your Dealer for "Sunkist" The HaH cnoicest oranges Mostly Seedless be broken up in different ball yesterday than they did Saturday. Whether it was over-confidence or just an off day-will be proved by their work later. They continued to play the same clean ball that char acterized their playing Saturday, thus again disproving the Lincoln papers in their knocks. The crucial test for Dick Cooley came when his team was losing but never once did he get over-ruffled. The team is becoming verv nomilar and any time that Lincoln gets too hot for them, Pueblo will be glad to have visit. WHERE THEY PLAT TOMORROW: Arkansas City at Hutchinson. Newton at Great Bend. McPherson at Strong City. Lyons at Wellington. The Wellington paper takes the fans to task for knocking on McDonald, one of the players, who is not popular with the lans. Connors is declared to be the hard luck pitcher of the K. S. league by the McPherson Republican. Nearly every game he loses is lost by the margin of one run, and Is usually lost by errors. Manager Bill Zink of Hutchinson has applied the axe to three of his players. Long, Huseman and Browniow were given passports to other regions. Long and Huseman were both too wild, while Browniow did not do very well at short. A St. Louis player has been signed in his stead. Umpire Clary says that Manda is the most promising player In the K. S circuit. Manda is a Hutchinson boy. The Hutchinson fans are proud of Schmidt, the new addition to the team who is not only a good player but is also a batter, who bids fair to rival Bill Zink. There is talk of organizing a baseball league in western Kansas. This circuit would be composed of Ellis, Plainville, WaKeeney Gove City, Oakley, Colby, Hoxie and Hill city. Armstrong is said not to be satisfied with his Junction City layout and it is reported that he is to scout after more material. The Salina Journal denies the rumor that Quigley is going to spend oniy nnfn Vita Hma in Stalinfl. th1 Sum mer, and says that he will spend the entire season mere. Wellington has an outfielder by the name of Donkey. He has not yet been put out of the game for kicking the umpire, and he does but little braying on adverse decisions.

A meeting of the stockholders of the Oklahoma Canadian River Railway company was held here at the offices of the law de partment of the Chicago, Rock Island Pacific, and the following directors were elected: C. O. Blake, M. A. Low, Paul E. Walker, H. B. Lowe and E. E. Blake. Considerable interest in this meeting is manifested owing to the fact that Chief Engineer J. B. Berry of the Rock Island spent considerable time at El El Reno immediately preceding the meeting and that R. A. Jackson, gen eral counsel for the same road and president of its holding company, also came in his private car directly from New York by way of Memphis and is now in consultation -with the resident officials of the local company. Those connected with the new com pany refuse to give out any informa tion, but it was learned that J. B. Berry, chief engineer of the Rock Island, was also chosen chief engineer of this company, which, judging from its list of stockholders and directors is an auxiliary to the Yoakum system. NEW LINE AT ARKANSAS CITY. Will Extend South to Heart of Okla homa Wheat Belt. Oklahoma City, June 3. The plan of extending the Arkansas City, Kan., interurban line southward into Okla homa has been revived during the past week, the proposition being to build to the government Indian school at Chi locco, thence to Newkirk, Kildare and Ponca City, thence west to Autwine and Tonkawa, north to Blackwell, Bra man and New Haven, Kan., and back east to Arkansas City, via Gueda Springs. Every town on the proposed line has announced that it will give financial aid toward the construction. It will penetrate the wheat belt of Oklahoma. IMPROVEMENTS FOR OTTAWA. Santa Fe Decides to Spend $30,000 for Enlarging; Faculties. Ottawa, Kan.. June 3. With the promise of an appropriation of $30,000 for his carshop extension tucked away snugly in his inside pocket, A. C. Bat telle stepped off a Santa Fe train and smiled. There was $30,000 worth of smile and $10,000 worth of frown. If the appropriation had been $40,000 it would have been all smile. For a big bundle of blue prints and columns of figures just concluded show that it will take at least those two score thousands to cover the expendi tures necessary in order to bring the capacity up to the point desired. Where that other $10,000 is to come from, is the question that now is worrying Mr. Battelle. "I am prepared to go ahead with the plans for the new plant," said Mr. Battelle. "These plans contemplate an investment of $40,000 in new build ings, tracks and machinery. Of this amount there is $30,000 available at the present time, but I do not want to go ahead until I can see my way to the other $10,000." If the proposition seems good to the people -of Ottawa, they will likely have an opportunity to subscribe to the amount lacking. The plans are very elaborate and ex tensive, including an entire new set of buildings north of the present plant. LOOK AFTER WATER POWER. President I fill Explains Stevens' Posi tion With Great Northern. St. Paul, June 3. President L. W. Hill of the Great Northern railroad today announced that John F. Stevens, who resigned as first vice president of the New York, New Haven Hartford railroad yesterday, would join the Great Northern for a brief time. Mr. Hill said: "Mr. Stevens has been engaged by the Great Northern Railroad company to inspect and report on the road's water power in Montana and Washing ton, and look into other engineering questions, now up for consideration. He was engaged because he is the best man in the country to do the work and because, as he was leaving the New Haven road, he was at liberty at the right time. The work he has ahead of him will require about six weeks and as he will finish so soon he will not bring his family west and will not open offices in St. Paul." BUYING FEWER TIES.

Baltimore, June 3.: There seems every probability that a general strike of the machinists in all the shops of the Baltimore Ohio railroad, twelve or fourteen in all, will be ordered with in the next 24 hours. The Baltimore Ohio Southwestern, it is understood, will not be involved. It is said that the course to be taken by the black smiths and boilermakers, whose inter ests are closely identified with those of the machinists, is problematical. DIVIDEND OX ST. L. S. W.

Fourteen Teachers Employed in the Little City. 112,000 FOR MORE ROOM General Prosperity Indicated by High Price of Land. Four Lincoln Co. Hogs Brought 1,300 During the Panic. Lincoln, Kan., June 3. The Lin coln schools are subject to favorable comment from not only the home people but the visitors as well. Bonds to the amount of $12,000 have re cently been voted for additional room to accommodate the increasing school attendance. The city schools now em ploy 14 teachers, and the prospects are that another one will be added in the next school term. The high school has an enrollment of about 100 and employs four teach ers. The school carries four com plete courses. R. E. Long, the superintendent, is a fine educator in his line, having closely organized the school so that it is now doing better work than ever before. The Lincoln high school was the first to get its application filed with the state superintendent for a share of the high school appropria tion voted by the last legislature. -Land Sells Well, Farmers Prosper. Lincoln county lands are selling for top prices. A farm was recently sold for $81.25 an acre. One of the best known men in Lincoln said: "The farmers of Lincoln county are mak ing dollars where the merchants and bankers make dimes. The farmers' children are being educated in a way their fathers never dreamed of; what will come of it? Are we to have a landed aristocracy where the farmers look down on the shop keepers? It was fine horses and buggies, but now the automobile is in the land. Fine homes are going up all over the county with hot and cold water, baths and modern conven iences, i "The farming industry is more re munerative, more honorable and re fined than ever, and the farmers' boys are better satisfied with their lot." Fine Stock in Lincoln County. One of the things that Lincoln county is noted for is her well bred stock of all kinds. In the hog line perhaps no one has done more than Thomas Collins. He knows the points of a good Poland China hog as the schoolmaster does his books. Mr. Collins has handled the high est priced hogs that have ever come into the county. Right in the panic of 1907 he sold four hogs for a figure close to $1,300. He keeps none but the best and he has done much to ward increasing the interest in hogs. Each time your correspondent visits Lincoln, he is impressed with its re markable growth. Modern homes are taking the place of the old ones. Dr. Alfred Hultner has recently com pleted a very cozy, up to date house. The Hultner individuality is seen ev erywhere in the structure. Dr. Joe Cuddy has just completed a fine home. John McCurdy, ex-county at torney, has just moved into a home that would be a credit to Topeka. FRISCO PROMOTIONS. Reported That V. C. Nixon WU1 Be Succeeded by J. E. Hutchinson. Fort Scott, Kan., June 3. From what seems to be a reliable source comes information of what may prove to be the greatest change in the officials or tne Frisco ror a decade. The pub licity given the matter has caused them to sit up and take notice and offi cial confirmation of these rumors is the next thing in order to be expected. The change has to do with four rail road men who formerly were located in Fort Scott. The report as- is out lined in another paper sums up these important changes in a manner that created no surprise here. It has al ways been the belief of local men that J. E. Hutchinson, who came here to succeed the late H. S. Mitchell, would some day be one of the big guns on the system. The same was predicted for Trainmaster Cantrell. It is reported that W. C. Nixon will resign as general manager and will engage in other lines of business. He wil lbe succeeded by J. E. Hutchin son, formerly division superintendent of this division but who has been gen eral superintendent of the eastern and southwestern divisions. BIG INDIAN ON A VISIT. The Brave Lives at Hortbn and Tips the Scales at 403 Pounds. Kansas City, Mo., June 3. Big Snake, the largest Indian of the Pottawatomie tribe, and said to be the largest Indian of Kansas, was a Kansas City visitor at the union sta tion on his way from Horton, Kan., to Oklahoma. Big Snake tips the beam at 403 pounds. He is only 28 years of age, but has maintained close to his present weight since he was 19 years old. When a mere boy he was as fat and large in comparison with the other Indians of his own age as he is now. Big Snake says he does not mind his great surplus of flesh, even in hot weather. He likes plenty to eat, and the idea of dieting to reduce his weight does not appeal to him. Big Snake was the center of much interest among passengers at the station. and wide experience in newspaper work. This will in no way interfere with the Leader as Mr. Austin will still continue to edit and control its publication. MANY SHEEP AT LAWRENCE. More Than 5,000 Are Being Fed Be fore Being Shipped to Market, Lawrence, Kan., Jnne 3. More than 6,000 sheep and goats were unloaded at Bismarck Grove and will be fed there before being sent on to the Kan sas City market. This was the first train load of a detachment of four or five trains that wiU be sent here in the next few weeks and fed. The sheep come from the big ranches of southern .California, about 100 miles north of Los Angeles where the government has,, recently with drawn for a reserve,- thousands of acres of land. These ranges were cov ered with sheep which had to be tak en off immediately. Am a result they are being sent to market by the thou sands. The Toughs, who- own Bismarck, have the feeding yards all along the Union Pacific and are looking after the sheep in transit. Bismarck is the last feeding point and the .sheep will be kept there four- or five days and then sent out, four, or five carloads a day. FOOTPRINTS OF TOILERS. Railroad Ties Worn Away by Nails in Miners Shoes. Pittsburg, Kan.,' June 3. Along the Santa Fe railway switches lead ing from the west edge of the coal camp of Chicopee to mines 5 and 8 may be found in the railroad ties on both switches, a deep impression, a regular path worn down into the ties. This path has been worn by the boots of hundreds of miners walking to and from the' coal shafts morning and night, to and from their work. The miners invariably walk along the railroad track, on the ties, and the nails in their heavy boots have worn down the ties until the road master has found it necessary to re lay both tracks with new ties. "It is the only case I know of where the ties have been worn out in such a manner," remarked a Santa Fe offi cial, n LAWRENCE WILL DECORATE. Commencement Week- Will Be One Long Dream of Joy. Lawrence, June 3. A pennant or flag floating from every house and store in Lawrence is the plan of the decorating committee for the com mencement week at the university.

The committee, however, has hit upon a novel plan for making the en tire city wear a gay appearance. Ev ery home In town is to be asked to put up a pennant or flag. MANY AUTOS AT PLAINVTLLE. Farmers Get Fancy Prices for Their Lands as WeU as Products. Plainville, June 8. The Bartlett land agency has completed the sale of the James Berry half section of land, one and one-half miles from Plainville, to Joseph Rempe, of Law rence, Neb., for $55 an acre. This farm is located on the famous Para dise Flats. There is a great rustle for hail in surance in this section. One firm wrote over $12,000 hail Insurance in one day. One of the Plainville firms doing business in automobiles, has sold not less than 30 of them since the first of the year. It would appear that the farmers as well as the substantial business man can afford an auto in this section of country. BANK CREDITORS PROTEST.

Maybe to chat with some one along the street, or for friendly gossip with next door neighbor. Sometimes it is only small talk but other times neighbor has something really good to offer. An old resident of Baird, Texas, got some mighty good advice this way once. He says: "Drinking coffee left me nearly dead with dyspepsia, kidney disease and bowel trouble, with constant pains in my stomach, back and side, and so weak I could scarcely walk. "One day I was chatting with one of my neighbors about my trouble and told her I believed coffee hurt me. Neighbor said she knew lots of people to whom coffee was poison and she pleaded with me to quit it and give Postum a trial. I did not take her ad vice right away but tried a change of climate which did not do me any good. Then I dropped coffee and took up Postum. "My improvement began immediate ly and I got better every day I used Postum. "My bowels became regular and in two weeks all my pains were gone. Now I am well and strong and can eat anything I want to without distress. AH of this Is due to my having quit coffee, and to the use or Postum reg ularly. "My son who was troubled with in digestion thought that if Postum helped me so, it might help him. It did, too, and he is now well and strong again.

You are right when you say in your advertisements that, it is Experience against Experiment." I feel it to he an outrage, and an imposition upon the parents of little chil dren that my name should he associated with imitations of Castoria, dangerous to the health and life of these little ones who too often fight their hattles for life in vain. Let me again commend you for the high standard you have maintained in the preparation of my prescription, and I confidently helieve it is due to this scrupulous integrity you are indehted for the wonderful sale of Castoria to-day, and the steady growth it has had since I gave you the details of its manufacture in my lahoratory thirty-three years ago. nj2 &ySM r "3Bi i i 3" ALCOHOL 3 PER ncT ANfcgeuibktoparaumloris slmUating iteFtotfandKegiila ting Hie S tomadis aniBoweis of iTomofes Digpstionkf M ness and RestContalns ndttar Opiimi-Marphuie nor Mineral.

FULL LEASED WIRE REPORT OP THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The State Journal Is a member of the Associated Press and receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or ganization for the exoluslve afternoon publication In Topeka. The news is received In The State Jour nal building: over wires for this sole pur pose. HOME NEWS WHILE AWAY. Subscribers of the Stnte Journal away during the summer may have the paper mailed regularly each day to any address) nt the rate of ten cents a week or thirty cents a month (by mail only.) Address changed as often as desired. While out of town the State Journal will be to you like a daily letter from home. Advance payment is requested on these short time subscriptions, to save bookkeeping expenses. Medals and other honors are due to the New York Central's engineer who wrecked his train to save the life of a child that had wandered on the tracks. Those owning railroads in Europe need to watch out if they wish to re tain their property. Mr. E. H. Harri man Is to visit among them for three months. As soon as the senators have ilo- be gin working nights on the tariff bill, they'll soon tire of their job and bring the matter to a conclusion of some sort in short order. Count Zeppelin's dirigible balloon is a wonder. But after all it is hardly in the bird class, as is evidenced by the Injuries received when it attempted to land on a tree. Mr. Harriman heartily joins the chorus of the other business and fi nancial experts by declaring that "the business of the country is on a very substantial basis." He ought to know. He's mixed up with enough of it, "Department stores are protesting against the proposed increased duty on wrapping paper,"; says the New York Telegram. "Hope they win out. Never do to have wrapping paper dis pensed with, compelling a fellow to flaunt his poverty by going home with a pickle in one hand, a can of sar dines in the other and a bar. of soap under his arm." James J.' Hill certainly has the right Idea. He declares that "the greatest service to the nation, to every state and city today would be the substitu tion for a term of years -of law- en forcement for law making." It is a fact that ought to be apparent to every one that altogether too many laws are made by legislatures and by congress each year and all too few of them and ether existing statutes are enforced. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, presi dent of Columbia university, is being talked of as the possible successor to Ambassador Reid at the court of St. James. Probably the Columbia stud ents are hoping that this talk will bear fruit, for with the exit of Dr. Butler there Is a chance of a re-entry of foot ball to the sacred precincts of that in stitution. Dr. Butler abolished this sport at Columbia a few years ago. Subscription lists will soon be go ing around to provide the funds for the erection of an adequate home for the Young Women's Christian Asso ciation. Topekans should treat them with a. liberal hand. The young wo men of the city are just as much en titled to and just as much in need of a' place of this kind as were the young men, and the latter were certainly treated handsomely In this respect by the people of the city. The increased price of flour ought not to worry Mr. Wheat Bull Patten very much. He'll be able to get all he wants at any old price inasmuch as he cleaned up about $4,000,000 in boost ing the price of wheat to the point where the raising of the price of all w-neat products was necessitated. Still, If he has a conscience, the burdens that have thus been placed upon the poor, ought to put it in an uneasy condition. Professor Vladimir Karapetoff, a so cialist, and a member of the faculty of Cornell university, told the members of graduating class of engineers to "pay your debts, square up your ac count with your landlady, return the borrowed text book or baseball glove or tennis racquet and leave Ithaca with your account w-ith the world square." And this Is pretty cellent advice for the graduates of ev ery educational Institution in the country. According to the annual report of the bureau of statistics of the depart xnent of commerce and labor for the year 1907, the farmers produced wealth aggregating about 7,500.ooo,ooo. Ke cent census reports place .the number of farmers In the nation at about' 6,250,- CS0. So the average wealth, produced by each of them In 1907 was approxi mately $1,400. This average earning capacity is more than double the aver age amount earned by the wage work ers of the country. CHILDREN TO DO THEIR PART. Teachers throughout the country have been Invited by the United States forester to co-operate with the forest service in an effort to obtain more definite knowledge of the characteris tics of the most important forest trees of the United States. To do this It will be necessary to obtain a large number of volunteer observers who will collect material on the time of leafing, blossoming, and fruiting of the various kinds of forest trees. In his letter in viting the co-operation of the teach ers. Forester Pinchot says. 'Knowledge of this kind is greatly needed and will be of value -from the standpoint both of education and of practical forestry. For educational purposes the results obtained for each species, averaged and presented graphically by means of colored charts, will be available to all who are inter ested in the subject, and particularly to schools. They will form virtual 'tree calendars," and will be valuable aids to nature study. "Children can readily be interested n the actual work of obtaining records. This should form an attractive out door feature of the school work that should serve to develop the faculty of accurate observation, and at the same time to promote an Interest in forestry which may lead to a better apprecia tion of Its aims and methods. It may also prove to be a profitable addition to botany courses -for older students. A study of this kind will be of great value to practical forestry, since the proper treatment of forests de pends partly upon a knowledge of these characteristics of trees. For example, the time of year at which a tree leafs out and blossoms is one of the Indi cations as to whether or not it Is frost hardy in a given region, and the length of time that a tree is in leaf Influences the growth it is able to make during the season. Knowledge of the time when seeds of each species ripen in various localities is of great value to those who are collecting seed, since seed often deteriorates or is eaten by squirrels and birds If not gathered and stored as soon as ripe. "Another result of this study will be a more intimate knowledge of climate as manifested by plant growth, for dif ferences in climate are shown by plant !fe as well as by instruments, and a preliminary idea can thus be gained as to whether a given region is suited to a valuable tree which it is desired to introduce there. Many such exam ples could be given, but sufficient has been said to show that the results of these observations will be a real help to practical forestry, in addition to their general interest and educational value. Volunteers will later be sup plied with publications and charts con taining the information they help to gather, as a return for the services rendered." On request, the forest service will b glad to send forms upon which to record data and a pamphlet containing full instructions as to the nature of the observations and how they are to be made. THE PRICE OF WHEAT. There is one sure way to reduce the price of wheat in the future, or to keep It at a reasonable figure. This is to in crease the yield of the grain. And the power to do this rests with the farmers of this and other lands, and especially among the farmers In the great wheat growing territory on the North Ameri can continent. This argument may not set well with a certain class of farmers who will wax fat under their present yields of wheat at the price which it has attained and at which it will re main and possibly be Increased. They want to make money as rapidly as pos sible, and this is no more than a hu man failing. But they could make Just as much money and more in the aggre gate if their wheat crops were ma terially larger, even if the price of wheat per bushel was considerably lower than it now is and promises to be. As James J. Hill, the "empire build er," said recently it is folly for farmers to exhaust their soil so that it pro duces but a dozen or fifteen bushels of wheat to the acre when it should yield twenty- five bushels or more. If the fertility of the soil was conserved and developed through the rotation of crops and in a variety of other ways. Then, too, there Is plenty of land which will yield wheat in the western and northwestern sections of the coun try which is not yet under cultivation. That much of this land will be put to the purposes of wheat growing in the near future it is reasonable to suppose. because farmers will be attracted to it in view o'f the assurance that they will find a ready market for their wheat at good prices. Other countries, also, are being sought out and exploited for their wheat producing abilities. As a matter of fact the hunt for wheat lands the world over is keener these days than is the search for gold, and there Is plenty such land waiting to be de veloped. And because of these very facts, too. the farmers of today who are draining the vitality from their wheat lands are really biting oft their noses of the fu ture by being satisfied with such land that will yield but fifteen bushels to the acre. The time will come some day when enough wheat will be raised to supply the demands ot all people and at reasonable prices, and then the farmer who has dissipated his land, and who gets a paltry yield from it will find that his share of the wheat wealth will be nothing like what it is today. FORGET NOT THE MOSQUITO. In these days when the public health authorities of the states and the nation are Impressing the peo pie everywhere with the necessity of swatting good and hard such pests as are Inimical to public health and to the peace and happiness of man kind, there is evidently no desire to play favorites. Following the launching of the campaign to swat the)' fly came another one to kill the rat and) now the attention of Kansas is directed by the state board of health to the necessity of swatting the mosquito. If there is a pesky critter on legs and 1 wings It Is the mosquito. One mosquito can make life more terrible with his annoying familiarity for a whole family than can a hundred flies. A mosquito is not quite the dirty beast that the fly Is nor is it capable of polluting things so generally. But It Is a har binger of disease. Its specialty in this climate being a dissemination of malaria, which is something to be dreaded. A little treatise on mos- quitos and their extinction which should be read by every person in the state forms a part of the May bul letin of the Kansas state board of health. It follows: Mosquitos cannot breed without water, and In order for them to breed In water it must be permitted to stand for about ten days. Shal low pools that are exposed to sun light dry up In a short time and are not dangerous, but pools of water that are shaded and do not rapidly evaporate are the ones that cause a great deal of trouble. Mosquitos seldom bread in large bodies of water; they prefer small pools, rain water that has collected In tin cans or bucket.- cesspools, rain barrels, broken bottles, cellars that have water standing In them, badly drained roofs and leaders which permit water to collect in the sagging parts without running off. A single old bucket or tomato can left with water standing In It, or left so that It may be filled with rain water, is capable of furnishing a sufficient number of mosquitos to make the surrounding block mis erable. Every citizen can easily, and with out the expenditure of money, as sist materially in exterminating these pests, by the spending of a few min utes after every rain storm In an in spection of the premises to see that all possible receptacles or conditions on the premises that might permit water to collect are immediately re moved. Most of onr mosquitos are local, and remain during their lives near the place of their birth. Can you not spare the time to see that on your property, at least, there will be no place for these dangerous and annoying insects to breed? Besides being carriers of disease (malarial fever and yellow fever) they drive us into the house on a summer evening, or else we must run the risk of losing a portion of our good red blood, being tattooed with red blotches, and possibly be infected with germs of a serious disease. It Is worth your while to help In the warfare of extermination on the mos quito and fly. JOURNAL ENTRIES Charity is a fine thing but too much of it is misdirected.

There's often A slip between the cup and having the price of one. Men may be difficult to please but it would appear that women are more so. Too many men think that they should be unusually rewarded for merely doing tneir duty. Music may have charms to soothe the savage breast but a good deal of the socalled stuff works just the op posite with civilized beings. JAYHAWKER JOTS The Atchison Globe quotes a man who was to be executed at Coolidge as saying to the hangman: "I am not fit to be hanged: keep me until I become converted." In a HIawath lodge recently a vote was being taken on a candidate. The result was announced and the candi date was declared elected, when a brother arose and said: "I protest I know he isn't elected. I put in enough black balls myself tf defeat him." Bert Walker took occasion recently lr his Osborne Farmer to haul over the coals several of the newspapers and newspapermen of the state for their fallings. Among other things, he said: "The State Journal will kindly wake up the man who is asleep at the switch of their editorial page." In all probability, no one appreciates the de ficiencies of the State Journal's editor ial page more than the Individual who gets it up. And u s not so long ago that A constant subscriber asked him why It was that "The Musings of a Vil lage Deacon," the peculiar palaver In dulged in by Brother Walker in the Osborne armer, were not reprinted more extensively on the State Journal's ecjtorial page. Lunkhead that he is, this writer could not even reply with a good excuse. But Brother Walker has provided him with it at last. He's asleep at the switch and reposing calm ly while The Musings of a village Deacon," and other gems of like cali ber flit by. This Is hard luck all around, new isn t It? GLOBE SIGHTS. From the Atchison Globe. When there is only one clerk In a tore, how customers flock in! Soon after the holidays, politicians expect that politics will begin to boil. Refuse to worry, and you have ac complished one of the greatest things In the world. If you are at all "touchy," do not have any friends; they will always be hurting your feelings. Whenever a new widow comes to town to visit, all the old bachelors take a little longer to dress. A little girl loves to take care of a baby. But how a little boy loathes It! Should the boy be whipped? Are you a Big Eater, and are you willing to spend an entire day feeling tough for ten minutes' enjoyment at the table After a man tries to be a lawyer or a doctor several years, and the people won't have him, we wonder that he doesn't conclude that he had better try something else. We have heard of such a man. but we never actually knew a man who had married a woman with money. If such a man should be exhibited in a dime museum, we would cheerfully pay to see him. Women get mighty little encour agement in economy. When a woman confesses that she made her gown, or trimmed her hat, about the only com ment is to the effect that the article in question "looks it." KANSAS COMMENT CONCRETE HOUSES. More Big Talk: Thomas A. Edison, it is announced, has about completed his plans for the cheap concrete houses which he promised a year ago, and if the statements made are true, he will more than keep his promise. It will be possible to build of concrete for 11,200 each, houses that would cost at least $10,000 if stone were used In tne construction? but they must be built in blocks. The Edison plan calls for a house 25 by 30 feet, with eight foot front porch and three-foot stoops. Each house will contain six rooms and bath, with cellar under entire building, to contain boiler; wash tubs and coal bin. Walls, roof, porches, bath tub, and laundry tubs will all be of rein forced concrete. Onlv the doors, win dows, and frames will be of wood. There will be no plaster finish. Mr. Edison says it will be possible for ev ery worklngman to own his own home or occupy a separate house; that" It will take four days to set up the molds, six hours to pour in the con crete, four days more for the concrete to harden, and four days to remove the moulds less than a fortnight to finish a house. The cast iron molds to be used to begin extensive building will cost $25,000, and the concrete plant will cost $15,000 more, so that it will be necessary to interest capitalists in the worn. Atchison Globe. A LESSON FOR-HARRIMAN. If Abdul Hamid had been possessed of the brain of a man like B. H. Har iman, who can keep ten railroads in the air at one time with his hands while he juggles government officials with his feet, the beautiful veiled la dies of the harem might still be list ening to the soothing tones of the lute, drinking rose-scented water, whiffing old Abdul's pipe and having the same lovely time onto the end of their dream-laden days. But he lack ed the gray matter. Mr. Harriman, if he thought of the sultan at all, probably saw the cloud no larger than a man's hand and guessed what was coming to the ruler of Turkey. This is a fair supposition because the afore said Mr. Harriman is now doing one of the finest and most beautifully ex ecuted examples of sidestepping ev er witnessed. He Is "getting in the clear." He has learned that the peo ple can cause him a lot of trouble when they insurge and he wants the insurgent business stopped. He has also learned that If he cares to run his railroads In a manner calculated to please himself he must stop abus ing the people by going down into their pockets and extracting there from money that doesn't belong to him. He must not be arbitrary. If he is he will lose his harem and the ladies will be compelled to drink plain hydrant water Instead or tne cooi, scented and costly drinks. Wichita Eagle. HARVEST YOUR RATS. The use of rat skins in various in dustries has created a demand in London alone to the amount of nearly $200,000 a year, states a British pub lication. They are used among other things for bookbinding, photograph frames, purses, and for the thumbs of laidies gloves. A new branch of work is likely to increase the consumption largely, and as much as 75 to 90 cents a day have been earned by the unem ployed in Denmark last year, when the rat act was passed. The damage done by the rats in England alone is estimated to amount to many million dollars per annum,- and their capture already occupies a large number of persons Garden City Telegram.

The cat gave a stretchy gesture and licked her chops. Then she stalk ed from the room. "She has gone forth to catch mice," said tlfe officer complacently, and later on he followed to see the result of his hypnotic efforts. But she had done more. Four gold fish and one tadpole in the aquarium and two canary birds were dead at her claws. "Awake!" cried the sheriff.

The great human problems which Prof. Zueblin says one must realize as going on at the present time, if one would De cultured, are tne laDor, the political, and the woman ques tions.

At a ball recently given by the king at Stockholm castle, the women ap peared with powdered hair and the men in colored dress coats. The "unheard-of gorgeousniess," as certain Swedes call it, of the display has called forth a protest from the "Sven ska Morgenblad." The wearing of colored dress coats, says the journal, has made a most unpleasant impres sion upon the less well-to-do classes. Dress coats, if worn at all, should at least be black. Colored dress coats, it declares are the invention of the evil one. Both leaders of parliament, too the Journal add, are much dis turbed by the king donning so gor geous a garment, and questions to ministers on the subject are expected. Dundee Advertiser.

New York Time THE EVENING STORY With the Very Latest Improvements. IBy Nellie B. Ransom Dorothy Allen eat on the broad, white-pillared porch, watching the road that wound between the trees to the village. She had watched the road a great deal during the last few days, at first with happy anticipation, but now with helpless longing. Jit was bad enough in the daytime; but it was worse when it grew too ?hl ,t0SeVwho w coming along the road; for then footsteps grew taS1nethn?Kl0Uder unU1 he wascl witVedKoinS? SlCk On the previous Sunday evening the vague beautiful something which had enveloped the wholn JU., i;i Xlfe1ent from other summer TfZr,: ?ya me' ftad nddenly. taken definite form. A look-, n tn,., ,u anJd sh had found herself without a doubt that John Porter lov- t i?eS and that she loved hlm5 but 6u "way witnout any open declaration, and thous-h nnrmh v,i watched the road till her eyes ached iiau not returned. "I might have known It," she said to herself, disconsolately. "He is too proud and independent to ask the daughter of a rich man to marry him. Now that his work on the new elec tric road is finished he will go away and I shall never see him again." Dorothy's neighbor, twelve-year-old Gladys, came skipping across the lawn a very perky, pink bow topping her j"cv nra. one percnea Herself on the broad arm of Dorothy's chair. "I've been reading such a lovely story!" she exclaimed. "What was it about?" queried Dor othy, with languid interest. "Oh. it Was about a. hrnv lrnlcrVit- in shining armor," said Gladys, "and he loved a fair and noble lady who loved him in return. But she had gold and jewels and all that sort of thing, you know, and he hadn't a thing but his charger and his good sword and so he could never, never ask her to marry him." "Well," asked Dorothy, as Gladys pausea lor Dream, "wnat happened then "Oh," replied Gladys, "there was nothing for the knight to do but to ride away to the wars and the nrin. cess Just sat in her tower and pined ami pinea mi at last sne died. Oh, it was perfectly lovely so sad and sweeir "It seems to me," said Dorothv. al most crossly, "that it would have been much more sensible for the knierht to stay and marry the lady, instead of leaving ner to pine and die." "Why," cried Gladys in disgust. "that would have spoiled the whole story." She Jumped from her perch and was aanctng down tne steps, but turn ed to call back: "Oh, say, that Mr. Porter has gone away, hasn't he? I saw him at the station Monday, with a suit case in his hand. Aren't his eyes just too handsome for anything? I'm sorry he has left, aren't you?" Then, having unwittingly destroyed Dorothy's last vestige of hope. Gladys cneerruiiy aeparted. A gray-haired man with a keen but kindly face came and stood in the doorway behind Dorothy, noting, with an anxious look, her drooping figure. He moved -uneasily,' once or twice, and then came out to where she was sitting. "You ought to be playing golf this fine weather," he suggested. "I'm rather tired of golf, father," replied Dorothy. Mr. Allen took a turn up and down the porch. "Has that young Porter left? I haven't seen him here for several days." he asked, with a carefully-careless air. "I really don't know; probably he has," replied the girl sitting very straight and assuming an air even more carefully careless than that of her. father, Mr. Allen, after a few more turns and anxious sidelong glances, betook himself again- to the house. Since the death of Dorothy's mother, ten years before, the bond of sympathy and un derstanding between him and his only "child had grown unusually strong; but here was a situation which he felt in no wist competent to handle. Left to herself, Dorothy's sprightly indifference suddenly vanished. Her hands fell listlessly into her lap and she leaned her head wearily against the back of her chair. So he had gone without even coming to say good bye! Well, there was no use watch ing the road any longer! "It's Just like Gladys' story," she sighed. "The knight has gone to fight his battles, leaving the poor princess in the castle to pine alone; only being a twentieth century princess instead of a mediaeval one. I'm afraid I can't die of love; girls never do nowadays. I suppose that's one of the modern improvements," she continued, whim sically. An endless procession of dreary years seemed to stretch out before her. She shut her eyes and two large tears glistened on the long dark lashes. Some one was coming across the lawn, but the footsteps made no sound on the thick turf. When they began to ascend the steps Dorothy opened her eyes with a start and John Por ter stood before her. There was a wonderfully tender light in his eyes and a determined expression about his mouth. How handsome he looked! How tall and strong he was! Dorothy caught her breath. "I thought you had gone away," she managed to say. "Only down to the Junction to meet the chief engineer. He wanted to talk over my next job with me. It's a lit tle bigger than anything I've ever un dertaken before. But you didn't think I'd go without seeing you again, did you, Dorothy, after Sunday night?" "I didn't know," murmured Dor othy, her eyes on the big buckles of her colonial slippers. John Porter seated himself on the porch rail and looked straight at Dorothy's face. "Dorothy," he said. "I know it's the general opinion that a man has no right to ask a girl with a rich fath er to marry him until he can provide for her the things she has been ac customed to having; but it seems to me that if a girl really cared for a man she could be happy with him even if she had to do without some of the things she'd been used to." "I wonder." thought Dorothy, "if It can be possible that the hero has modern- Improvements, too." But she kept her eyes on the big silver buckles and John Porter con tinued speaking with deliberate con viction. "And that is why I dare to tell you that you can afford to give up some of the things that money can buy and come and share with me the things that can't be bought. Will you come, Dorothy "Yes," said Dorothy, meeting his look squarely at last. "I will come." AMUSEMENTS. At the Air Dome. Tnnich f Tfawov enA drama and vaudeville. At the Novelty.

But if Dorothy has made up her mind to marry you, you may as well submit, first as last. Do you think you can support her?" "Not In the style to which she has been accustomed," said John Porter. 'But she Is willing to dispense with, luxuries." "When I married Dorothy's moth er," said Mr. Allen, "she had a Mttle money, which I Invested, and after her death I put the investment in Dor- othy's name without saying anything to her about it.

Chicago Record-' Herald QUAKER MEDITATIONS. tFrom the Philadelphia Record.I A heavy speech doesn't always have the most weight with its hearers. Naturally the best thing with which to feather your nest is cash down. A married man can always get a lit tle off his sentence for bad behavior. "The language of love is the lan guage of the eyes," mused the poet. "The lips being busy with other things, I suppose," suggested the mere man. The man who wears a celluloid col lar would put up any old kind of a, bluff. It Is easier to prove that other peo ple are wrong than to prove that we are right.

The meeting is free, and I want everybody to come out. At the end of my address I will answer any questions in regard to the saloon problem or my work, which any one in the audience may choose to ask. When I was in England and Scotland this formed a very interesting feature of my addresses." Mrs. Nation has been spending the past few days in the north central part of the state. She visited Manhattan and Beloit, both of which towns im pressed her very favorably. In talking about her trip this morning, Mrs. Na tion said: "Kansas is .the greatest state in the Union, and I am now more thoroughly convinced of this than ever before. I believe the agricultural school at Manhattan is one of the greatest of its kind in the United States.

'There's a Reason" Amounts to About Ten Thous and Dollars. "The man I rode with," Is named as the legatee in the will of H. H.- Day, a Franklin county pioneer, .and as a result the Kansas Children's Home so ciety, will receive a bequest of $10,000. Two years ago W. E. McDowell, a district superintendent of the society was working in the interests of the society in Rantoul, a small town in tne western part or i'Tankiin county. At that time he was thrown in con tact with H. H. Day, who showed a little interest in the work of tne so ciety, and who took Mr. McDowell around the city in his buggy, spending two days with him. Mr. McDowell left at this time, and the incident soon passed from memory. Mr. Day died May 18. less than a month ago. He left no blood heirs, his wife having died many years ago, leaving him without an heir. A brother-in-law, T. J. Watkins of Rantoul, was named in the will as executor. The will was probated Monday and it was found that he had bequeathed small amounts to his different friends, which amounted to about $4,500 or $5,000. The entire estate was valued at $15,000, and consisted of considerable farm pro perty in Franklin county, a large farm in Labette county and a little city pro perty in Topeka. In the will the Children s Home so ciety is named as follows: "The re mainder of what I may have, I be queath to the Children's Home society. whose agent I rode with on the 10th of July. 1907. Mr. McDonald was his name." There is a slight difference in the name of Mr. McDowell and the man named in the will, but this is pro bably owing to the similarity of the names. The attention of the society was first called to the bequest Tuesday morning, when Rev. O. S. Morrow, the secre tary of the society received a clipping from an Ottawa paper. He immediate ly took the matter up with Mr. Mc Dowell who was on the road in the interests of the society at the time. Mr. McDowell was surprised and it was only after considerable' thinking that he was able to remember the incident cited in the will. Mr. McDowell, however, left for Ot tawa immediately and after a confer ence with the probate judge wired Mr, Morrow that the society would receive about two-thirds of the estate, which was valued at $15,000. The probate judge gave his opinion that there could be no doubt as to the identity of Mr. McDowell, and that there would likely be no contest in courts.,., as Mr... Day left no legal heirs and that he had ta ken care of his friends in good shape Rev. Mr. Morrow and the other offi cials of the Kansas Children's Home society are elated over the good for tune. Mr. Morrow in speaking of the bequest this morning, said: 'Yes, it is true that we have been named in the will, and there is but little doubt that we will receive about $10,000. We are congratulating ourselves on our good fortune. In carrying on work of charity such as we are now doing, we meet all sorts of difficulties, and natr urally a bequest of such proportions makes life seem a whole lot more pleas ant for us." This bequest will fit nicely Into a little fund which the society has been raising for the purpose of erecting a building for the society. The society has been working for some time on a nlan to erect a building to cost $30,- 000 on Kansas avenue, a portion of which would be used by the society and th9 remainder of which would be rented as offices. This would bring the society a steady income of $2,000 which would insure a goodly portion of the funds necessary to carry on the large work of the so ciety. Of this amount, $20,400 has been raised. The amount received from the estate of Mr. Day will be turned to good account in the completion or this fund. A committee is now looking for a suitable Kansas avenue site, between Fifth and Tenth. Alter tnis is secured the work on the new building will be started. OAMIDGOSSf Mr. and Mrs. Henry Wilson of Olathe, Kan., is here spending several days visiting relatives ana irienas.

Boy Still Maintains Attitude of Stolid Indifference. Otho Battles, the youne mail rob ber, was arraigned before United States Commissioner Frank Camp bell this morning and a hearing was called for the afternoon of Monday, June 14. A bond of $3,000 was fixed by the commissioner but was not produced and the young man was taken back to the city jail. He didn't seem bothered in the least by the ceremonies' and wore the same grin 'which had made him a well known character on the streets of Topeka. His mother is apparently broken down over the arrest and the collected evidence. From the evidence eathererl bv the postoffice insiiectors last nicht and today it looks as though there iias ueen a regular gang of postoffice thieves working in Toneka for the last six months. This so called gang wing rounaea up ry the Inspec tors and it is but a question of time until they will all land safely in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth. utno Battles. the young criDDle who was arrested Tuesday nlerht for opening a registered package on a mail wagon, can not escape. Not only the key to the mail pouches has been found upon him but in a search or the premises and clothes last evening it was round that he had in his possession a $5 bill which answered exactly to the description given Dy the postmaster of Brough ton, Kan., who sent to Postmaster Rodgers yesterday a complete de scription of the money and money orders wrapped in a registered pack age sent to the Topeka office for de pository. It is thought by the gov ernment inspectors that this fact alone will send Battles to the penitentiary. Claud Stroud the young son-in-law of Mrs. Battles and a brother-in-law' of young Battles, who was arrested Wednesday is getting into the plot deeper. This morning Inspector Gro gan found upon the young man a key ring' filled with a complete set of crook keys. Two skeleton keys were there that would unlock any com mon lock in the city of Topeka. "These are never carried in the pocket of an honest man," said Mr. Grogan this morning. Then there was a "flat" key used for unlocking any of the regular flat locks. This is also a very dangerous key to carry and will convict a man quicker than a-nything else. To make matters worse Stroud carried on this key ring two keys which fit the mail wagons used by the postoffice. Stroud was never in the employ of the postoffice and these keys are counterfeit in every way. When asked what he was doing with such a set of suspicious looking keys Stroud dropped his head and said he had just been picking them up at odd times. The inspectors are of the opinion that these odd times are the exact times that have cost the government thou sands of dollars. During the last search of the Battles premises nothing additional was found. Charred paper in the stove examined under the glass showed the outline of a regular regis tery receipt card. However the detec tives have collected enough evidence to convict young Battle. The object in view at the present time is to clear up the Rock Island mystery. That Bat tles and his brother-in-law were con nected with the Rock Island robbery !s strongly suspected. This loss alone will amount to thousands of dollars. Ever since the Rock Island affair the robberies at the postoffice have been regular. It is impossible to obtain an inter view of any kind with Battles or Doyle. Battles is at the city jail and Doyle at the county jail. They are not allowed to talk to anyone except their attorneys and the inspectors. Captain J. R. Mc Nary is the attorney for the defense. The inspectors have attempted to "sweat" the prisoners but nothing of any. consequence can be obtained from them according to the inspectors. One of the inspectors did say a few words to the effect that Battles did not let drop any crumbs of information. Ho Is not flattered by the continuous at tention and is as close as a clam. Some new information has been ob tained as to the past career of young Doyle. Elmer Doyle is not a novice in the art of trouble making. He belongs :o a number of the toughest gangs in Oakland and has been in scrapes of all kinds. Chief Eaton of the police de partment said this afternoon that Doyle had been an annoyance to the police for some time. While Eaton was in the juvenile court young Doyle was taken into custody for breaking Into a house in Oakland. It was a sur prise to all acquainted with Doyle that he was allowed on the postoffice mail wagons after such a record. He Is now confined in the county jail. Baseball Phone.

Have All Eeen Repaired Since Heavy Rains. IN ONE AYEEK'S TIME Work of Repairing Cost 115 Less Next Time. "Councilmen Should Look to Removal of Old Piling." V. R. Parkhurst, engineer for the North Topeka drainage board, takes exceptions to H. B. Howard's remarks about the dikes being badly damaged by the recent rain and his statement that "it would cost several thousand dol lars to properly crown, roll and oil the tops" of the embankments. Mr. Parkhurst this morning stated that the dikes were put into as good condition as ever since the recent rains and at a cost of $115 in a week's work and that the rains settled the dikes so much that the damage which may result from future rains will be less each time and consequently may be repaired at a less and less cost until the expense is a trifle. He also intimated that the councilman had better look to the re moving of the piling from underneath Melan bridge before suggesting work for the drainage board. "The dikes have been repaired since the rain .until they are in as good a condition as they ever were," said Mr, Parkhurst. "The recent hard rain was the best thing that could have hap pened to them as it settled them as much as tney would nave Deen Dy nve months of ordinary weather. "Besides, the damage done to them was trifling. The dikes were not worn any more than any embankment would have been Dy me same cause. I won der if the councilman did not know that any green bank will be worn away somewhat by a hard rain'. The banks did not 'sluff' at all. They were repaired for $115 in a week's time. 1 think that any more damage resulting from a 2 inch rain as we had at that time could be repaired for $d0. "As an engineer who has had experi ence in the construction of such em bankments, I would say that there is enough crown and slope on the dikes already. I would also say that if the councilmen would see that the piling is removed from underneath Melan bridge they would help matters more than by suggesting things about the dikes when they do not know what they are talking about. The work of removing the piling was checked up to the city, why nasn t it been done? Notes and Personal Mention. They are fancy those Cuban pine apples at Berry Better's.

Commencement Kxercises of Topeka Industrial Institute. pletion of work in the industrial courses. Mr. Bradford Miller, president of the board of regents, represented that body. WESTON'S BAD NIGHT. Poor Food and Alkali Water Made the Pedestrian III. The ninth annual commencement of the Topeka Industrial Institute came to an end yesterday. Prof. Kelly Miller of Howard university, Washington, D. C, delivering the address of the afternoon. It was in the spring of 189a that this institution was first organized as a kindergarten, sewing school and read ing room, the Instruction being given in a small room near Shunganunga creek on Washington street. The school was. placed In 1900 under the supervision of Booker T. Washing ton, and it was through Mr. Washing ton that the present head of the insti tution, Wm. R. Carter, was placed in charge of affairs. The state legislature of 1899 appro priated $1,500 a year for the partial maintenance of the school. Since that date through the generosity of sub sequent sessions of the' legislature ana the donations of friends a farm of 105 acres was purchased and several build ings erected. During the past year the total enroll ment has been 105, the force of In structors having numbered fifteen. Aside from the regular branches of study the courses offered include re ligious training, music, elecution and dramatic art, and in the industrial de partment agriculture, painting, print ing, bookbinding, tailoring, carpentry, cabinet making, and mechanical and architectural drawing, and tailoring for the boys, and dressmaking, millinery, domestic science, etc., for the girls. Yesterday those who went out from town in spite of the Inclemency of the weather inspected a creditable exhibit of the work accomplished during the past year. Prof. Kelly Miller spoke upon the im portance of character building, saying that "Education is only useful when it Is effective," and -urging the members of the eraduating class to unite thought and deeds. The members of erraduatine class who spoke were: Frederick C. Helm, "Agriculture, the Basis of Prosperity," Altha Leonidas Brandon, "The Y. -M. C. A., a New Field for the Negro;" Louise M. Scott, "A Plea for Better Cooking." ana Pearl C. Wolfolk. "The Use of the Needle In the Home.' A pleasant feature of the programme was the rendering by the school of some old plantation melodies and the work of the band which was formed' but five months ago. Seven students received diplomas, representing the' completion of the academic courses, and there were fif i teen diplomas granted for the com- Laramie, Wyo.. June 3. Edward Payson "Weston, the pedestrian, suffer ed yesterday and last night from the effects of poor food and too much alkali water and as a consequnece did not resume his Journey westward from Laramie until about 11 o'clock this morning. Weston walked 38 miles from Gran ite Canyon, Wyo., yesterday, arriving here at 8 p. m., and immediately went to bed. A stomach ache kept the vet eran awake most of the night, but when lie awoke late this morning he declared he felt much better. He proved it by eating a breakfast consist ing largely of batter cakes thickly spread with butter. Westan hopes to reach Medicine Bow. 59 miles west. tonight, but can hardly do it with his late start. FURIOUS BUYING. Characterizes Dealings in Southern Pacific on Wall Street. New York, June 3. Furious buying of Southern Pacific railroad stock was the leading feature of a sudden revival of speculation in the stack market to day. Interest was centered In a few prominent stocks, notably the Harri man Pacifies and the United States Steel. A sudden upward rush of nearly six points in Southern Pacific had an impressive effect on the whole market. It was unexplained by any news, but rumors of an intended increase in divi dends and of a proposition to retire the preferred stock figured in the gos sip induced gy the spectacular move ment. The buying was accredited to inside sources and showed no evidence of com ing from a public demand. United States Steel stock continued its re markable advance and touched new high levels within a fraction of 69. Preparations for the Introduction of this stock to the Paris bourse were held to account for its strength. The whole market was strong and active, but nothing like the extent of these leading speculative favorite's. DEATHS AND FUNERALS.

On and after July 1, no meals will be erved In the Commercial club lunch room after the noon hour. This an nouncement was given out today after a meeting of the house committee of the club which has charge of the din ing room. The decision was reached, out of consideration to the hotel and restaurant men of the city who have been criticising the action of the club in the opening of the cafe on the ground that it was working against their interests. It is the opinion of the officials of the club that the noonday luncheon interferes but little with the business of the hotels and restaurants for but a few of the members of the club who take their lunches at the I am still doing business at the old stand.

But the action was taken anyhow on account of the objec tions of the hotel keepers and restau rant proprietors. The time limit for afternoon hour meetings was made July 1, on account of several affairs of this kind having been scheduled for June. The mer chants and jobbers wrill be here June 23 and a smoker has already been ar ranged and advertised for this time. Envelopes, which all the business men are sending out, have announcements of this affair and it would be mani festly unfair to change the programme at this late date. The insurance men of Kansas will meet here June 15 and an affair of some kind had been planned for the evening of that date. These will of course be carried out, but no new affairs of any kind will be scheduled for any date after the first of July for any time later than the noon hour. It was decided that even the Topeka Ad club which Is In a way affiliated with the Commercial club would have to go elsewhere for their evening sessions, at which lunches are served. This should prove a balm to the restless hotel men who are complaining because of the club "going into the hotel business." What the Commercial club really has been doing Is to get together at the noon hour and plan how to bring con ventions into the city in order to make business pick up for the inn and tav ern landlords. The directors of the Topeka Country club held a meeting this noon in the Commercial club apartments, at which several matters of Importance were discussed. Plans were made for the entertainment of the State Golf asso ciation members who will be here June 28. 24, 25 and 26, to 'compete in the state tournament. Players are expected from "Wichita, Hutchinson, Newton, Arkansas City and Kansas City, Kan. This will be the largest affair of the kind ever held In Topeka and the ef forts of the club will be devoted to making it such a success that Topeka will be the location for many future state tournaments. Topeka has the finest Country club In the state and should have no trouble In showing the visitors a good time. Four new members were voted into the club at noon today. Three active members were ji A. Herbst, S. P. Nold and Judge Clark A. Smith. Harry W. Eagle was voted in as an associate member. John F. Norton has been appointed chairman of a committee which con sists also of Mrs. Norman Wear and Mrs. Lizzie Norton which will provide an evening entertainment at some date this month at which all the relatives and friends of the members will be In vited to the Country club. For the first time in the history of the Commercial club, the big front room is equipped with a piano today. The City Federation is meeting there this afternoon and music was desired o MM 7 w indows so the piano was installed. A piano is a luxury tor tne club a3 yet, but the club will doubtless own one before many months. It is the idea of the club to bring as many conventions to Topeka as possible and a convention room with a piano is a splendid in ducement to smaller organizations for whose meetings the Commercial club rooms are adequate in size. Hugh A. Benner and Robert T. Bil lard of the Mutual Ice company, are new members of the Commercial club. They secured admission today. This brings the total number of members pretty close to the 800 mark. The advertising committee of the Commerical club will hold a meeting in me ciud rooms tomorrow noon. Sev eral matters of vital interest to the committee and to the club are to be brought up for discussion and action. RODGERS GETS MORE. Salarv of Topeka Postmaster Increased to $3,700. Word was received in Topeka this after noon from Washington which announces a raise in the salary of Postmaster A. K. Rodgers from $3,600 to $3,700 a year. This increase was given because of the volume of business growing larger during the past year. APPEALS FROM FINE OF 1 CENT. Mrs. H. Level Will Take Quarrel of Sisters to District Court. In the court of Topeka, Mrs. H. Level was fined 1 cent and costs, on a charge of disturbing the peace, but she has appealed to the district court. It was gleaned from the evidence that Mrs. Level does not get along nicely with her sister. Hazel Freeman. Their mother lives with Hazel, and Hazel has frequently forbidden Mrs. Level to come around the place. But recently Mrs. Level was informed by a friend that sister Hazel was going away to" leave mother alone, so she went over to see about it. Hazel was very much at home, however, and the visit terminated in a rough house. Hazel had her sister arrested for dis turbing her peace. Both colored wom en were represented by excellent legal talent. Judge W. R. Hazen defended Mrs. Level, who Is a hard working woman and washes for the Hazen fam ily. Sister Hazel works for Colonel Wood at the Glen-Wood hotel, so Colonel Wood hired Ed McKeever to assist in the prosecution. The novel fine of 1 cent was assessed by Judge pro tem H. G. Larimer. THEYQUARREL Aldrich and Stone Engage- in Battle of Words Over Remarks Made by the Rhode Island Senator. HE IS fTAKEN TO TASK For an Alleged Insult to the German Government. The Finance Chairman Denies Any Intention to Offend. Washington, June 3. Senator Aid rich's recent characterization of the course of., any government which might send to this country, any anonymous statement concerning prices in the foreign country with a view to influencing legislation was made the subject of an acrimonious colloquy In the senate todav be tween Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Stone. The previous remark of Mr. Aid rich was based upon the fact that in response to a request from our own state department. the German authorities had forwarded to this government statements of manufac turers concerning the rate of wages in Germany, with a request that the names of the 'manufacturers be not used. Senator Stone brought up the ques tion soon after the senate convened by reading a telegram from Berlin in which it was stated that the German government had taken offense at Mr. Aldrlch's language because of the im portant position he .occupies in his party and in congress. Reading from Mr. Aldrlch's original remarks, Mr. Stone said: "When the senator from Rhode Island made that somewhat petulant and extraordinary declaration every one here took notice, and I think every one regarded his utterance as impolitic if not impolite." Continuing to comment on the in cident Mr. Stone said he was not surprised that the German govern ment and the German people had taken notice of this utterance and felt offended by it. Aldrich Replies. Mr. Aldrich, who had listened at tentively to the words of the Mis souri senator, arose and said: "I made no charge against the German government. I was talking about German manufacturers whose names were kept from us and who furnished information with the ex press understanding that it was not to be used in the enforcement of our custom laws. The senator may con sider that information of value. I do not. There is no question about the German government at all. The German government forwarded these statements with the distinct under standing that they -were not to be used to raise the invoice value of goods imported into the United States contrary to our laws. I repeat that ny attempt ran the' part of any fiwernment to influence legisla.tlon on the tariff is impertinent. I did not say the German government made such an attempt but if any government made such an attempt it would be impertinent." Mr. Stone insisted that the senator from Rhode Island had referred to the German government as impertin ent, again read the statement made by Mr. Aldrich as it appeared in the record. "I was not discussing the Ger man government in that regard, but was referring to various statements tiefore the committee," said Mr. Aid rich who added with energy, "the sen ator is mistaken." "I am not mistaken," insisted Mr. Stone. Mr. Stone contended that Mr. Aid rich's utterance must necessarily have had reference to the course of the German governments he was not dis cussing anything else. Mr. Aldrich declared with a con siderable show of impatience that there could be no question about his position. "I said," he went on,, "that any at tempt by ahy government or anybody to influence by anonymous commun ication the legislation of this govern ment was impertinent. I said that and repeat it with all the emphasis at my command." "That statement bearing upon the German report as it did, was neces sarily made with reference to that re port, the document, which the Ger man government had furnished," said Mr. Stone. "I said nothing of the kind," hotly retorted Mr. Aldrich. "I was discuss ing the general proposition of any ef fort to influence our tariff legislation." Bono net for Germans. "The German government," con tinued Mr. Stone, "is represented by men of great ability, learning and ex perience who understood the proprie ty of international intercourses as well as any people of the world. They would have been the last to intrude themselves In a matter relating pure ly to our domestic affairs and they did not do anything of the kind." He said the German government could not itself directly, nor through any of its diplomatic representatives call the senator to answer for what has taken place in that body. "It is for that reason." continued the Mis souri senator, "that the German gov ernment and p-ple may understand thatr the senator from Rhode Island in what he says and the senator- from New York, Mr. Depew, who spoke in the same fashion, stand alone in the senate of the United States and in this matter do not have the sympathy or the support of their colleagues that I have brought this matter up here." Replying Mr. Aldrich said his critic ism was directed towards the effort to use the information from Germany to influence American legislation. He pro ceeded to express his great admiration for Emperor William and the German people, and then read a number of ex tracts from the German report to show there had not only been an effort to in fluence legislation, but the report con tained criticisms from the house com mittee on ways and means. Senator Depew said it was absurd to think the German government had in reality given sericus consideration to the mat ter. Mr. Stone concluded his presentation of the question by saying that while there had not been a. direct retraction the dose had been so sugar-coated by eulogy on Germany as to remove the bitter taste. Mr. LaFollette introduced a resolu tion calling for all the correspondence relatin? to the subject but its consid eration was postponed.

Former Washburn Orator Delivers Alumni Address. The annual Alumni association ad dress took place- at the Washburn chapel last night. After the render ing of a piano selection by Miss Har rison of the class of 1899. and a vocal duet by Mrs. Mabel Renwick Hughes, 1908, and Miss Agnes Milllce. 1905, Dr. Wilson S. Naylor of Lawrence university, Appleton, Wis., was in troduced by Mr. Hugh McFarland, president of the association. Dr. Naylor .was graduated from Washburn college in 1890, and has the distinction of being the only Washburn man who had the honor of winning the interstate oratorical contest. During 1903 he made a trip to Africa In company with Bishop Hartaell of the Methodist church, and has since compiled a book which is used as a missionary text book and Is in its seventy seventh edition. His address was one of the most scholarly which has been given before the association. He said in part: "Culture and the common lot, what warrant is there for uniting the terms? "There are two problems that are fundamental to culture. How to command leisure for cultivation of ideals; how to command industry for fulfilling the tasks imposed by these ideals. The old world solved the problem easily. It imposed all the work upon a large majority of the people, and delegated a smaller minority to do all the resting. The few had leisure for learning; the many were without learning. "There is a mass of most illumi nating figures which are usually used to encourage youth towards acquiring an education. There are 23,000,000 youths of school age in the United States, and of these 23.000,000, 12,- 000.000 acquire the equivalent of common school education; 75.000 ac quire the equivalent of a high school education, and 11,000 the equivalent of a college education. This means that the common lot is separated from the liberally educated in the ratio of 2.300 to one. The speaker then gave data show ing that the man with the college education draws a far better income after a certain period of years than Clearance Sale Prices on Berlin Kettles, like cut, will save you more than one-third.

"Lester Ward, who is believed by many leading educators without a peer as an investigator into sociological questions," continued Dr. Naler, "declared, however; that genius is distributed universally throughout all classes of society. His investigations show that genius may as readily be found in the humbler walks of life as among the most privileged classes provided that con ditions for the manifesting of genius be present. "Culture is the drawing out of the individual into the larger life of the society which surrounds him. It is an adjustment of the individual to the world of men and nature. It Is the harmonious expression of all the power that makes for the beauty and worth of human nature. The man who is truly cultured is the one who gets next to his fellow men. "In speaking of the common lot I do not mean merely the day laborer. I mean by the common lot a man who does' a certain work as an-activity of his life which is to him drudgery. I believe there will come a time when there will be no drudgery." Dr. Naylor then pointed out that in this day and generation labor is essential for every man as all the world despise nothing more than an Idle man. He considered that the tendency of the development of the human race Is towards universal democracy and equal advantages. In his closing remarks he said: "We must strangle the thought that the world owes every man a living with the larger truth that every man owes the vorld his life." KING JAMES WINS.

State Memorial Building Site Is Selected. Will Be Located at Tenth Ave nue and Jackson Street. PLANS ARE ORDERED State Architect Will Make Drawings for Building. Action of City Made the Selec tion Possible. The city of Topeka has done its part and so the new memorial build ing is assured for this city. At the last meeting of the memorial com mission it was practically decided to locate the new structure on the Tenth and Jackson street corner now occu pied by the old stone school house providing the alley north of the site could be vacated. The city council and the Santa Fe have agreed to a satisfactory contract regarding the alley and the school board and street railway company cold the lots at a price which made it possible for the entire site of 150 foot front on Jackson and 225 front on Tenth street to be secured for $15,500 only $500 more than the sum set aside by the state for that purpose. The state architect will draw his plans at once and as soon as they are approved by the commission work on the new $200,000 building will be started. It Is expected that the build ing will be finished early next sum mer. It will be occupied by the G. A. K. and the State Historical society and will be one of the most interesting places to visit in this section of the west. The new building was made pos sible for the state by the payment last winter of an old war claim to Kan sas by the government In the sum of $400,000. A bill was Introduced in the last legislature appropriating $200,000 for a memorial hall to the Kansas soldiers and sailors of the civ il war and also to be devoted to the uses of the State Historical society. A commission composed of Gov. Stubbs, Lieutenant Governor Fitzger ald, Speaker Dolley, Senator Huff man, Representative Berke, Secretary Martin of the Historical society and the commander of the G. A. R. was appointed to superintend the con struction of the building. The memorial commission has held three meetings since the legislature adjourned in the effort to secure a site for the proposed building for the $15, 000 set aside by the state for that purpose, but could not do so, and for a itime it looked as though Topeka would not get the new building after all. The commission wanted a site 200 feet square facing the capitol grounds Such a site could not be secured for that sum or anything near it. At its first meeting the commission decided that either the Jetmore corner, the Bowman corner or the Crane corner would do for the site and none other. But Mrs. Bowman and Mrs. Crane did not want to sell their homes and they came and appealed to the governor not to condemn the property. The ap peal of these ladies decided Governor Stubbs, of the memorial commission, who had held out for one of these sites not to hold out to the extent of start ing condemnation proceedings at the ex pense of the wishes of these ladies. So at a second meeting of the board the Jetmore site was considered but T.aa rejected for the reason that it was not large enough. There remain ed -only the site at the northeast cor ner of Tenth and Jackson streets and It was not large enough. The commis sion at Its last meeting checked the matter up to the city by agreeing to take the site if the city would vacate the alley just south of the Santa Fe property to the uses of the memorial all. Agrees With Santa Fe. Mayor Green, who was conducting the city's side of the negotiations alone during the sickness of President Mills of the Commercial club, reached an agreement with the Santa Fe and the city councllmen whereby the alley should be vacated. The mayor had also secured an agreement from the board of education to buy the school property, on the cor ner for $5,500 and with the street car companv for their lots east of the cor ner on Tenth street for $10,000. These agreements gave the city the Tenth street corner with a frontage on Jack son street of 150 feet and east on Tenth street of 225 feet at a sum only $500 in excess of the amount set aside for the commission to be used in the pur chase of the site. The old stone school house standing on the school house site can be sold for $500 and probably more, so the city has likely secured the site without any donation. However, if the material from the old school house is not sold the $500 will be quickly raised by popular subscriptions. At the first meeting of the commis sion early last spring Mayor Green and Resident Mills of the Commercial club were called into the conference and the matter of securing a site checked up to them. As stated President Mills has been ill at the hospital and the conduct of the negotiations fell upon Mayor Green. The mayor has acquitted him self in this matter with credit to the city and himself. The state board of control has awarded the contract for the material for the water pipe line for the Osawa tomie asylum to a Kansas City firm for $3,550. The state will oversee the work of installing the line. An ap propriation of $6,000 was made for this waterworks improvement for the Osawatomie hospital. Next Saturday morning the board will purchase a ten-horse power mo tor for the Boys' Industrial school at Hutchinson. Edward E. Brown, secretary for the state university, spent the day in the city on business with the state school at Lawrence. Mr. Brown held a consultation with the state archi tect about the new plans for the new administration and liberal arts and science building for which provision has been made by the state. This structure is to be the crowning feat ure of the university group. Work on the building will not be begun until all the old work on hand is finished. Next week will be the big week of the year at the university. An unusually large class will graduate and the com mencement program is notable among many good ones that have been car ried out in the past. At the meeting of the state board of health Dr. C. H. Lerrigo of Topeka was re-elected president and William C. Hoad of Lawrence was re-elected sani tary and civil engineer. W. J. V. Dea son was confirmed as executive clerk to the secretary. Dr. Crumbine, the secretary, of the board, was re-elected at the meeting a year ago and holds his office for another year. The most important action of the board at its recent meeting was the adoption of a regulation requiring all millers to label their bleached flour. The government has taken up the question of bleached flour, so it is no longer regarded as a joke by the mil lers and the public. This same regulation requires that all artificially colored foods must be so labeled. Another rule adopted re quires that the percentages of all In gredients found in food stuffs shall be labeled. ONLY ONE WAY. Dogs Must Be Muzzled In Order to Overcome Rabies. Washington, June 3. At the annual conference of state and territorial health officers with the United States public health and marine hospital ser vice it was declared that rabies fre quently is contracted from the bites of skunks, wolves, and other wild animals. Assistant Surgeon General Kerr pre sented a large chart showing the geo graphical distribution of rabies in each of the states. Dr. Kerr said public opinion was be coming rapidly educated lo the necessi ty of muzzling dogs as the only cer tain way of overcoming the disease. The general conclusion of the confer ence was that it was quite as reason able to require the muzzling of dogs as it was to prohibit the free roaming o cattle and horses in the street. A motion by Dr. Bennett of Colorado, providing for the appointment by Sur geon General Wyman of a committee to consider the question of the preven tion of- rabies and report to the next annual conference was adopted. From reports made by the delegates It ap peared that the United States was re markably free from leprosy as com pared with many foreign countries. Twenty-four states and territories are represented at the congress. The World Want a job, eh? What's your recommendation? Graduate My A.B.

WHITE HOUSE CHINA Mrs. Baker of Kansas Adding to Presidential Tableware. Revision of U. S. Army Field Service in Progress. Washington, D. C, June 3. Dr. John W. Bischoff, the famous blind organist and composer of Washing ton, is dead. He was the husband of Elsie Bond of Emporia, Kan., who married the musician twelve years ago. Dr. Bischoff helped to make the world beautiful with his music. He presided at the organ in the First Congregational church of this city for thirty-five years. His Illness was that of the heart. He was one of the noted men of the capital city, and his annual concerts have always been musical events of great prom inence. His pupils number into the thousands, and may be found at the organ in hundreds of cities. Dr. Bischoff was totally blind. His sight was lost when he was two years of age, and his early educa tion was secured in the Wisconsin In stitute for the Blind. Later he studied singing under London and Bassini at Chicago, and the organ un der Creswald of London. He came to Washington in 1875 to take charge of the music In the First Con gregational church, and was in charge there until his last illness. It was a custom of Dr. Bischoff to give a concert at the church every six weeks, and great crowds always gathered to hear them. His playing was probably the part of greatest in terest in these programmes. When he entered and took his place he al ways ran his fingers over the key board and sounded a few favorite chords. When playing, there was all of the precision and technique of one assisted by sight. Mrs. Elsie Bond Bischoff, the widow. Is a musician of note. It wras when she was one of his pupils that she fell in love with the great player and composer.

I. t. Saunders o Leavenworth, who is at the Raleigh. has the most modern and well-kept State Soldiers' home of any state in the Union. "The inspector general of the regular armv says so, continued tha veteran, "and he doesn't go out of his way to nav a compliment unless it is deserved. The home consists of officers' quarters, commissary building, church, school house, barracks for old soldiers who have no families, and about 190 cot tages for soldiers and families. The federal government only looks after the soldiers. Wrives and children of sol diers must shuttle for themselves. "Kansas deals more humanely and leniently with her heroes," added Col. Saunders. "She not only furnishes them a home for themselves, but also for their wives and children. She gives them a house where they can dwell the same as other people. She issues thtm food and clothing, and gives them medical attention. Their children are given school privileges, and a place of worship is provided for all. Besides this, the state ipermits the soldiers to keep all their own pension money. No longer does it exact any portion or it. For several years the state did retain a small per cent, but it has given that ui. "One of the fine features of the Dodge City home is that every soldier who wants to caa raise a garden. This gives plenty of exercise to the soldiers, and at the same time enables them to raise Just what, they like to eat in the way of green stuff. The population of the home Is increasing slowly, but steadily. As the soldiers grow older more of them become Incapable of earning a living for themselves and families, and thev drift to the homes. On account of the cottage feature. wnere a soldier can take his whole family with him. the Dodge City home is gaining faster in population than any of the federal homes. Kansas is also the oioneer in fur nishing an exclusive home for widows of Union soldiers. The Mother Bicker- oyKe Home at Ellsworth cares for widows. More than 70 make their home there now. The number is increasing right along." Among the things to which the gen eral staff of the army is giving atten tion Is a revision of the field service regulations of the army, which are designed to govern the conduct and employment of troops in field opera tions. It will probably be a year or more before the regulations are pub lished to the army and militia. xne plan pursued In making the re vision has been to deliver lectures at the army college on the various debat ed phases of the present regulations, and after full discussion, to forward the proposed new regulations, chap ter after chapter, to Fort Leaven worth, where they are put into prac tice with the troops available there under the student officers of the army school of the line. Gradually in this way the most important parts of the work have been gone over and are be ing put under test. Numerous chap ters have been returned from Fort Leavenworth to the general staff for further review, in the light of the ex perience of actual trial. Congressman Cushman was talk ing on the lumber tariff, and a Ken tucky member interrupted. "Oh," re plied Cushman, "the gentleman comes from the glorious state of Kentucky, which produces the best whisky, the fastest horses and the most beautiful women; but what does he know about this subject? "I am told they make whisky there so good that they have to blindfold themselves before drinking it, be cause if they saw it it would make their mouths water, and that would spoil the drink." Congress Stanley of Kentucky was on his feet in an instant to reply. Sir." he said. "Kentucky is justly proud of its horses, its whisky and its women. But it pays a tax of $1.10 per gallon on its whisky and pays it gladly; its horses are being put out of business as fast as anti-racing laws will do it. and as to Its women, why. sir, I want to say that Kentucky will never appeal for protection lor her women so long as the angels in heav en don't engage In a beauty contest among themselves." And then Mr. Cushman went right on talking about lumber, stopping oc casionally to pick a sliver out of himself. Canatn. T T.

WHEAT There are good reasons why the movement of wheat to primary markets will be small during July. First, the crop is late; second, farmers are already showing indifference about making early sal-s, believing In high prices for a yea- to come; third, interior mills are holding off and expecting to grab the first of ferings of new wheat and this sort of buying will take about all that will be for sale early in July. In addition, prices are going to be high at St. Louis and Kansas City and this will head oft much wheat that would naturally cme to Chicago during the month. There is natural heaviness in the late months compared with July because of the talk of big crop prospects in the northwest. This is another case of counting chick ens before they hatch and short sales for September and December may prove as expensive for the bears as have those made for May and July In the past. We favor the buying side of the market on depressions. CORN One man's judgment is as good as another, as to whether the country will sell a few million bushels of corn in the next 30 days. If 70 cents for corn at country points does not start a big movement with the new crop conditions favorable then there Is nothing soft about the situation. L--gan Bryan. Chicago, 'June 3. WHEAT Senti ment with wheat traders last night was mainly bullish. A number who were out after the close said that the bullish feeling was rather too strong. At the same time there was a great deal of gossip about active buying of !'ups" especially on September which created the impression that the local crowd was short. Champlin was said to have put out a short line and to have bought m-jst of the "ups." It was said that the ull houses have taken profits on more July wheat than any other house and have replaced it with December. The purchase early of over 600,000 bushels by a prominent broker was said to be covering shorts and go ing long for New York traders who had covered over 300,000 bushels May at the close Saturday through the same house. It was said that July prices are headed higher and purchases should be made on all breaks of 1 cent like that of Wednesday. CORN Specialists said that while a number of the leading professionals who have been bears, have covered their shorts yesterday there was a line a willllnn hiichela nil nnt far UL ua.lL a. .......v. 11 1 July by Champlin. A trader who has been very bearish said tnat tne crowa were mostly long, notwithstanding the fact there has been free selling to profits on the advance. Cash handlers said that the future course of prices de pends upon the attitude of the farmer In the marketing of his surplus. They believed prices high enough. OATS Gossip among the oats trade was inclined to be bearish. Intcr Ocean. Chicago, June 3.

In th? south where sland was promising eariy yijids will not be as large as anticipated as heads an 1 stands are below normal. Western counties Fields are so uneven, ragged and bunchy that crop will probably be about the smallest Ohio has raised for many years. Reduced acreage is ono of the primary causes. "Indiana Souther counties and a few central ones are still promising and while the condition of the stato' may be raised, yields will fall low In the aggregate as there Is such a largo percentage of the state unpromising Illinois Central counties have the best promise. Here also there are numerous fields so poor it will reduce the general average. Southern county only good in spots, while uplands nnd river bottoms the larger area is very poor. Many counties with large acre age will run from 5 to 10 bushels with considerable almost worthless. "Missouri The crop, on the whole, will be larger for the area seeded than those east of the river. The central eastern counties, two counties in the southeast and five counties in the southwest will probably exceed last year, while central, northern and some of the river bottoms will have a lower average than they have had for many years. "Kansas Kansas frequently has had failures in some portions of the state while other parts of the state had large yields. This year is an exception. There is no good average in any part of the state excepting a few northeastern counties where the acreage is small, while there Is more than a usual por tion of its acreage which can almost be called a failure. "Oklahoma Prospects in this state are exceedingly unfavorable. A small area in the eastern section is fair but northern and central counties poor, stand thin and short, will be a difficult crop to secure. The western and south western counties which gave an early promise may now be passed as almost worthless. "I wish to state that I have not made a definite estimate of any state." John Inglis.

fHE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOTJSNAL THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 3, 1909. 9 (JOCIETY There -were cablegrams from Ger ??.anjiv..rance' England, Spain, Italy, the Philippines and the Orient, and telegrams from- many cities of the united States extending congratula tions and good wishes to Miss Anna a rie Nellis and Mr. Albert Charles Phillipps of Seattle whose wedding last night was the most important of the season In Topeka. Elbert and Alice Hubbard sent a letter of regret at be ing unable to attend the wedding and a Roycroft edition de luxe for a wed ding gift. The Queen of Bhopal, one of the native rulers of India, at whose court Mis3 Nellis was presented when she made her tour of the world, sent a gift of oriental jewelry. Clarence Eddy, the great organist, who played at the wedding of Miss Celeste Nellis and .Mr. Harmon D. Ryus four years ago, sent a telegram of congratulations. There was a telegram from Miss Hope Latham, whose work in Mrs. Fiske's Salvation Nell company has been one of the distinct individual successes of the present theatrical season. The gifts, displayed in an upper room of the Nellis town house, where the wed ding took place,- were, literally, from all parts of the world. They included tapestries, linens, lace, jewels, silver, potteries, porcelains, pictures, a nota ble collection representative of the pride's wide acquaintance in this coun try and abroad where she has traveled extensively, her varied interests, broad culture and catholic tastes. The cere mony was impressive and the inciden tal music a beautiful feature. Be fore the marriage service a chorus, in cluding Mrs. George W. Parkhurst, Mrs. W. W. Wikidal, Mrs. Frank S. Thomas. Mrs. L. S. Ferry, Mrs. Ed win O'Nell, Miss Berenice Fuller, Mr. James Moore. Mr. Glenn Jones. Mr. W. B. Metcalf and Mr. Darwin Brad ley, with Mrs. Robert Garver at the ipiano. sang the bridal chorus from Cowen's Rosemaiden, and this was fol lowed by Hardelot's Because, sung by Mr. Frederick Wallis of Kansas City. Miss Allabelle Troutmari at the piano played the Lohengrin processional and accompanied Mrs. Frank H. Foster, violinist, who played La Cygne by Saint-Saens during the ceremony. The musicians were stationed in the big music room on the west side of the house and the ceremony took place in the drawing room on the east side. The bridal procession formed in the dining room and marched the length of the long drawing room to the bow win dow in the southern end of the room where the service was read. Four rib bon girls. Miss Mary MacLennan and Miss Wilhelmine Marburg, Miss Mar garet Jetniore and Miss Margaret Go ing led the procession. Miss Going was in a white lace princess gown and the other girls wore white lingerie frocks of lace and embroidery. They carried broad pink satin ribbons to mark an aisle for the rest of the party which included Miss Florence Reed of Wich ita, Miss Blanche Best of Kansas City, Miss Metta Robinson. Mr. John Waters and Dr. Merrill Lindsay, Miss Nellis with her father. Judge De Witte C. Nellis, Mr. Phillipps with his cousin, Mr. Charles Albert Phillips also of Se attle.

The foundation was long, and trailing and severefy simple and the shallow guimpe and long sleeves were of fine tucked net. Miss Best's gown was a pink crepe deeper in tone than Miss Reed's, an empire model elabor ately trimmed with silver lace dotted with seed pearls. Miss Robinson wore a charming gown of pink chiffon with a wide border of white lace on the trail ing skirt, the pattern of the lace out lined with very narrow quilled pink satin ribbon and the bodice similarly trimmed. She wore a necklace of pearls. All the bridesmaids carried pink roses and maiden hair ferns. Miss Nellis wore the same gown and veil which were worn at the marriage of her sister. Celeste (Mrs. Harmon Ryus of Los Angeles) three years ago on the same date, June the second, and In fact all the details of the wedding repeated as nearly as possible the Nellis-Ryus wedding. The wedding toilet was an exquisite lace robe over chiffon and silk, and the veil was of thread lace. The bride wore a wreath of orange blossoms, which her sister, Mrs. Ryus. who is in delicate health and was un able to be at the wedding, sent from California and carried a shower bouquet of brides roses and valley lilies. Her only oranment was a diamond pendant, one of Mr. Phiuipps' oetrotnai girts. An effective bit of color was lent the bridal party as they received the guests after the ceremony by the bride's little black maid who stood behind her and fanned her vigor ously while the company passed in review. The house decorations were sim ple except in the drawing room where the bow-window was banked with peonies, Killarney roses and smilax. In the ceiling hung a Cupid's bow and arrow made of pink rose buds, exactly as at the Nellis-Ryus wedding. The doors and windvs in this room were arched with flower ing branches, wiegelia, mock orange and roses. There were jardinieres and bowls of roses and peonies in the music room and In the dinmg room where some of the serving was done. Here the table was covered with an exquisite and elaborate cloth of Mexican drawn work and in the center was the "huge wedding cake.
