Force of Forty Men to Drive Out Objectionable Characters. L03 Angeles, Cal., Oct. 3. Stirred by the fact that the bomb explosion which wrecked the Times plant and killed 21 men and subsequently attempted dyna miting outrages, has created an emer gency with which the police force is finding Itself unable to cope, the city council passed an emergency ordinance at a special meeting today which auth orized the Immediate appointmei.t of 1 Home of General Harrison Gray Otis. Editor and Principal Owner of the Los Angeles Times, Which an A tempt to Dynamite Mas Made. 40 additional patrolmen, ten sergeants and one lieutenant. These men will be used to hunt down and imprison or drive out of the city men who have been known to express commendation of acts of violence and others who have been in trouble with the police since the labor troubles be gan in Los Angeles several months ago. A proposal also was discussed to raise the city's reward for the detection of the bomb conspirators from $10,000 to $25,000. It was decided to make a re ward $10,000 for the detection of each conspirator. The city's reward was augmented to day by an offer from the county board of supervisors of $10,000 or $25,000. The amount will be fixed at a meet ing of the supervisors later today. It was the intention of the county of ficials to make the offered reward equal to that of the city, hence it will be probably $10,000 for each dynamiter convicted. Seventeen men are now in the city jail booked as dynamiter sus pects. Mayor Alexander appointed a com mittee of seven men today toreceive contributions for the relief of the fam ilies of the dead employees of the Times. The appointment was author ize! by a resolution adopted by the council. The situation was found to be such this morning that it was Impossible to make any progress in recovering the bodies and a steel crane will have to be placed in order to lift the heavy material away. It is believed further investigation w ill bear out the theory of S. W. Cra bill foreman of the composing room, who in making his escape fell down the elevator shaft and got out only after having been severely burned. M'. Cra hill said there was undoubtedly a num ber of bodias at the bottom of the shaft, as others beside himself had stumbled that way. Some Entirely Consumed. CTlef of Detectives Falmer photo fraphed every twisted piece of steel brought from the wreckage with the purpSse of showing the photographs to experts on explosives and determining, if possible the kind of explosive used m blowing up the building.

The Otis home is known as "The Bivouac,' and stands on Wiltshire av- enue, in the most fashionable section of the city. After the finding of the infernal machine at the Zeehandelaar residence. Detective Rise was sent to "The Bivouac" to make a search of the premises. With Charles Flocker, the gardener, he found a suit case hidden under a bunch of vines under a bay window on the side fronting Westlake park. Detective Rice telephoned Chief of Police Galloway, who went immedi ately to General Otis' house. Together they examined the suitcase. Chief of Police Galloway wanted to take it to the police station without opening it. Rice insisted upon opening it there and finally stuck a knife into the side of the receptacle. A buzz of machanism w as heard inside and smoke began com ing out around the edges of the aper ture. Convinced that the suitcase contained a bomb, excitedly Chief Galloway order ed the infernal machine rushed over to the park where its explosion could do but comparatively little damage. Rice and Frocker picked it up and dashed across the street. Putting it down, they sped away and had but about 100 feet between them and the bomb when it Went off with a crash that threw the entire neighborhood into panic. The explosion tore out a portion of the curbing of the street paralleling the park. Branches of an elm tree di rectly overhead were torn off togeth er with a portion of the park fence. A plate glass windshield fronting a porch in the Otis home also was shattered. Geu. Otis' Statement. General Otis Sunday issued a state ment regarding the disaster, in which he said: "More than all else do I deplore the sad loss of life. I, with my co-owners i.. the Times property can endure the physical loss which the destruction of the building involves, with its ex pensive plant of modern printing ma chinery. We can stand this loss with comparative complacency and with the courage and endurance of men who know what it is to meet the ordinary disasters of business life. But we are overcome with sadness by the fact that so many of our loyal and faithful workmen were slain by the hands of conspirators and assassins, for this in famous deed was in fact an act of as sassination. Wre can repair the physi cal damage done and restore the great property destroyed but we cannot re store life taken away. And this is the great burden which weighs on our hearts in the face of this frightful calamity. The work of physically rehabilitat ing- the Times, already begun before my arrival home by my brave, efficient and faithful associate, Harry Chandler, win be continued until the establish ment is Jnce more complete, full fledged and panoplied for the war which we are determined to prosecuta. so long as life lasts, in defense of the great principles for which the Los An geles Times and its responsible own ers stand, and will continue to stand. "I want to express here, at the very earliest moment possible, my gratitude to innumerable friends in the state, the county and throughout the nation, who nave conveyed their sympathy to us in numberless warmly worded telegrams and in countless oral expressions show ing the profound and deep-seated sen timents of good will which they bear toward my newspaper, myself and my co-workers in its production. These expressions of sympathy impel us with the more profound determination to go on in the course which we have marked out for the Los Angeles Times and for ourselves as its responsible con ductors." Big Reward Offered. Only three arrests have been made since the explosion Saturday morning and once since-Saturday night, when an alleged anarchist, Martin Egan, was taken Into custody. In the hope of get ting outside aid in the sea -eh for the men who placed and set off the explo sive. Mayor Alexander increased the city's offer of reward today to $10,000. This, together with the offers of lo cal newspapers and labor organizations, whose leaders have announced a deter mination to assist in the search for the criminals, raises the total amount of rewards offered to $18,500. The city's offer is intended to tempt anyone hav ing knowledge of a dynamite conspiracy to divulge the secret. There are no conditions. The $10,000 13 offered as a payment for information leading to the detection of the perpetrators of the crime. The mayor's statement is as follows: "A reward of $10,000 is hereby offer- (Continued on Page Six.) NEW YORK SLUMS Paradise Compared to Those of London, Says Priest. Spends a. Right in Them and Enjoys Experience. CHILDREN WEliE GAY. Richer Than the Millionaires and Moro Godlike. Says That God Would Feel at Home There. New York, Oct. 3. The slums of New York are a paradise compared to those of London, according to the Rev. Ber nard Vaughn, a prominent English Jesuit preacher, who took a prominent part in the deliberations of the recent Euchari.stic congress at Montreal. Father Vaughn came to New York to assist in the consecration of St. Pat rick's cathedral. He has been spend ing his leisure time in -visits to New York's East Side tenement district. "After spending almost an entire night in the slums of your city, I can say that I enjoyed the experience," he declared In summing up his observa tions. "I compared your slums with those of a vaster city I know well, and I rejoiced. Here were children playing and dancing in the electric light and people sat on their porches happy and contented. Poles, Jews, Italians, Chi nese and Japanese were there, all gay and lively. "The children with a slice of melon and a ray of sunshine were richer than your millionaires, more human, more God-like. The aristocracy of New York dwells in its slums. Children shout and sing and dance around hurdy gurdies, they scamper away for sweet meats; they share their tresures as they share their games. The million aires of your Fifth avenue, are not to be compared witTi these people: their children are not to be compared with these children. God would feel at home there. "Your slums, New Yorkers, are a paradise compared to the dark, gloomy, sunless courts and alleys known to me in the east of London." BOOKER!

Declares That Warring Nations Must Now Consider Craft. Denver, Oct. 3. The aeroplane, in stead of being an adjunct to the navy, is likely to replace it, so far as coast defense is concerned, in the opinion of Lieutenant General Nelson A Miles, U. S. A., retired, who made the state ment on arriving here. "The aeroplane eventually will be a means of coast defense." said the gen eral, discussing aerial navigation. "Aeroplanes can be built by the score for what one battleship costs. Their use would curtail greatly the expense of building coast defense vessels. When aeroplanes can fly a hundred miles out to sea and drop explosives over hostile fleets these fleets will be cau tious about attacking a coast. And this condition will come. "Already any nation which goes to war must reckon with the aeroplane. They would be extremely advantageous in reconnoiterlng and when up 7,000 feet would be practically Immune from Injury by rifle shots." FATAL AUTO WRECK.

There was given out from the battleship isew Hampshire last night a list of 29 men who were supposed to have perished by the swamping of a barge which was being towed to the vessel at an chor in the Hudson river Saturday night. Appended to the list are the names of 11 men who are still absent but who were not recognized as hav ing been in the swamped boat. Captain Thomas S. Rodgers, In command of the New Hampshire, gave out the list with this brief intro duction: "The following is the list of men missing from the liberty party who are thought to have been in the boat that swamped Saturday night." This list follows: Boylan, J. R., ship's cooR, fourth class; Brooklyn. Erhart, J. F., gunner's mate, third class; New York. Turner, J., water tender; Brook- lyn. White. P.. seaman; New York. Amatuzio, G seaman; Avondale, Pa. Blumgren, E. F., seaman; Worces ter, Mass. Bennef, 3. Creek. N. J. coxswain; Green Bailey, H. S.. ship's cook, third class; Ansonia. Bakeman, P. P.

Blight, N., coal passer; Roxbury, Mass. "It is not certain," comments Captain Rodgers, "that these men were lost, as two of them originally on the list, re turned today." The names of the eleven mpn miss ing who were not recognized as be ing in the boat, follows: C. J. Carrigan, seaman. New York; F. W. Harron. coal passer, Brooklyn; E. L. Gordon, seaman; Far Rockaway. N. Y.; E. A. Herbert, ordinary seaman, Conn. L. Johnson, coppersmith, Wilmington, Del.; J. A. Legel, coal pas ser, Philadelphia; D. Mahoney, ordi nary seaman. Wilmington, Del.; J. J. McAdams, coal passer, Philadelphia; G. C. Thompson, fireman, Bloomingdale, N. Y.; J. "Tan Peer, fireman, Paterson, N. J.; A. R. Chambers, marine private, Worcester, Mass. According to Captain Rodgers, no arrangements have been made for the funeral of any body when found, but as picked up they will be taken to the hospital ship Solace, now anchored in the Hudson. They will be held there until claimed by relatives or friends. All the next of kin of the missing men have been notified but if any of these turn up, a second telegram will be sent, giving the good news. Relatives will also be apprised by wire when a body is recovered. The mother of Midshipman Chev alier, who was in charge of the swamped boat and who collapsed after saving 12 men, arrived In New York Sunday from New Bedford, Mass., and spent most of the day with her son. He Is still shaken after the extreme mental and physical strain. R. Kart, one of the men supposed to be drowned, is credited with hav ing saved four men. Kart was a big fellow and a good swimmer. In the water he held up two men until two life preservers came his way. He gave these to the weaker two, and then swam around and found two other men who were exhausted and sinking. These two he held up until they were picked up by a boat. Still regardless of his own safety, he did not attempt to get aboard, for fear of overloading It. Nobody seems to have seen him afterwards. The ac count of his bravery was given by his shipmates. Searching for Bodies. All day Sunday police boats dotted the cove in the river above West One Hundred and Fifty-seventh street. their crews grappling for bodies. But their efforts were without success, not one body was recovered. Old river men said they were not surprised, for when the accident occurred, they de clared, the tide was running up stream like a mill race. It probably will be several days before any more are found. Along the water front in the vicin ity of the accident crowds gathered today, rushing hither and thither seek ing information. Many women were among them, anxiety depicted on their faces. They were looking for news of relatives or friends who had had shore leave and should have reported back on the New Hampshire yesterday even ing. The midshipmen on the landing of the float were courteous in answering questions, but when it came to the point of giving news they referred everyone to the officer of the deck on board the battleship. On board the flagship Louisiana, Rear Admiral Vree'and convened a court of inquiry to determine the exact cause of the accident and place the re sponsibility. A number of the men who were on board the ill rated boat told their stories. A report of the findings of the court will be forwarded to the navy depart ment. Whether Midshipman Cheva lier, who was in charge of the barge. testified was not learned. Neither could it be ascertained whether Chev alier was in the ship's hospital, where he was taken in a delirious condition after the accident. Versions or the Accident. Various versions of how the accident occurred were in circulation. The gen erally accepted one, however, was that the barge, heavily loaded with sailors and marines, returning from shore leave, was towed into the heavy swells of a passing steamboat. Rising for a moment like a cork, the barge then plunged into the trough between two waves, one of which broke over the side and swamped it. Instantly the choppy water became dotted with struggling, shouting men, intermingled with floating packages, suit cases and personal belongings. The whistling of the little steam launch that was towing the barge rent the air with sharp, staccato calls for assistance. Few boats were in the vicinity, how ever, for the river was running high in white caps, kicked up by the strong wind. What few there were put quick ly across the 200 yards that separated the distressed craft and the shore. Many of the -sailors and marines were pulled aboard these boats; others held tightly to the swamped barge. Still others, unequal to the battle with the heavy waves and tides, floated up stream and disappeared. SMALL SIZED WAR Wisconsin Sheriff Declares Mar tial Law. Then He Fires on Children and Wounds a Girl. Winter, Wis., Oct. 3. Myra Dietz, the 21-year-old daughter of John Dietz who was shot Saturday when Sheriff Madden and two deputies fired on the Dietz children as they were drivig to this town, was carried on a cot to the baggage car of a train bound for Chippewa Falls hospital today. A score of special deputy sheriffs armed with rifles stood about the train wTatching for John Dietz who had threatened to come to town and pre vent the officers from taking his daughter away. The girl's condition is reported to be about the same as last night al though her wounds are said to be more serious than first reported. John Dietz is exoected here any moment. Sheriff Madden's order of martial law is still in force although he is not attempting to prevent the telegraph company from sending press dispatches as he did Saturday. All Afraid of Dietz. Milwaukee. Oct. 3. A special from Couderay, Wis., says: Every ablebodied man in Winter and the surrounding country has been sworn in as a depty sheriff and Winter, and all roads approaching the town are guarded by men armed with rifles, fear ing an attack from John Dietz for the shooting of three of his children on Sat urday. John Leslie, a son aged 20, who es caped from home with a bullet hole through his right arm after the attack; Helen, aged 14. Johnnie, aged 7 and Mrs. Dietz are still in charge of the cabin at Cameron Dam and cannot be taken by storming without a heavy loss of life. FLOUR MAY GO LOWER. Buyers Refuse to Take Interest Unless Mills Make Reduction. New York. Oct. 3. That flour prices must be materially reduced to effect business is the opinion held by buyers generally and by many of the mill rep resentatives on the local market. Tha northwestern mills are still holding rather stubbornly to high prices, al though willing to make some conces sions, but apparently not enough to meet the views of buyers. The mil's contend that cash wheat has not de clined sufficiently to justify the reduc tions asked for. but buyers say they can afford to wait and under present circumstances it is only a matter of a short time. Soft winters are weak and buyers would demand excellent quality if they were willing to pay as high as 4.50 in wood. Kansas straights are stiil around the $5 mark for the best brands, but the amount of business done at this figure is small and buyers are more inclined to consider $4.85 as the value for this grade of flour.

The young woman was taken by other members of her party to a waiting automobi'.e and hur ried away. Her identity was not reveal ed. Weather Indications. Chicago. Oct. 3.

The recent ac tion of the Baltimore board of police commissioners in placing an armed guard around police headquarters in an effort to resist the seating of a tempor ary board constitutes a resistance of the lawful authority of the state in the be lief of Governor Austin L.

Every church member eventually will be a missionary, according to the pre diction of Marshall A. Hudson, foun der of the Baraca-Philathea organized Bible class movement, made at an Auditorium mass meeting Sunday night. Several hundred tiersons were present. "Let no one think th.it he can send another to do his work -long these lines," said Mr. Hudson. "If you want to get the credit for having saved a so i von must do the saving yourself.

Several successful meetings were held throughout the day by Mr. Hud Son, two at the Y. M. C. A. and one at the First M. E. church at 2:30 in the afternoon which was well attended. GAYNOR ON DECK.

WINS IX CLOSE GAME. Defeats Ottawa 11 to 0 But Disap points Coaches. Lawrence, Kan., Oct-3. In a game played in sweltering hot weather Kan sas defeated Ottawa Saturday after noon by a score of 11 to 0. Because of the heat the game was slow and listless. Coaches Kennedy and Mosse were disgusted with the performance of the Jayhawkers. Poor tackling, poor interference and fumbling lost khe team many yards. The team must have lots of practice cn formation plays and in running interference. The game was featured by the punt ing of Heil and the playing of Crosby at right tackle for Ottawa, who broek through the line and tackled the Jay hawkers many times behind the line. Both teams relied on straight plays for gains, using line bucks, end runs and forward passes. K. U. tried seven forward passes, but only two were suc cessful. Ottawa was more fortunate and mad connections several times for short gains. At no time in the game was the Kansas goal in danger and most of the play except the last few minutes of the game was in Ot tawa's territory. Lineup Kansas Post. Ottawa. Johnson. Lynch .R.

SCORE STANDS 27 TO 15 Locals Proved in Their Showing: a Lack ol Defensive. Few Penalties Mark First Test of New Holes. Washburn opened the football revival Saturday with the defeat of the Col lege of Emporia by a free-for-all score of 27 to 15. The Blue was given an un welcome and humiliating lesson in the new forward pass and in sheer help lessness watched the lightweight vis itors presume to score. Not that the incident of the Em poria scores gives any indication of a permanent weakness for it was the first game for the local warriors. Their play showed plain enough what their training had been. They have been running signals. They ran them right through the Emporia line and around their end3 and there was no trouble in making distance. But when the op ponents took the ball and began throwing it back and forth, Washburn players seemed dazed and came out of it only to find that they knew little about defensive play. The Emporia men had the advantage of having play ed one game in which they trampled Campbell 20 to 2and learned a lot. The day was sweltering and 12 min ute quarters were decided upon. Wash burn kicked off and recovered the ball when Granger fumbled on his 20 yard line. McFarland plunged through tho line for the first touchdown less than two minutes later. Then the Blue went through everywhere and before Ihe quarter ended had two more touch downs. A kickout for the first goal fell short the receivers and no attempt was made. Hardy scored a goal after the second but on the third he kicked a grounder. Score: Washburn 16. Three minutes on their backs amid complaints of the hot weather appar ently took the ginger out of the local players. Crumbine went in at quarter 1LTrt'r,.rtH mA n.llai a mint TTqt-Hv I booted it 40 yards. Emporia put ft back in play by a long forward pass to Lyon, an end who hung out on the sideline. Lyon dropped the pass with a clear field to the goal in front of him and Burkhart recovered it for Wash burn. Crumbine came back at them with a forward pass, the only one Washburn tried. Hardy made a clear pass to Lee for a gain of 20 yards but Field Judge Holmes ruled that Hardy had advanced within five yards the scrimmage line, which was a mistake, and brought the ball back. A punt gave the ball to Emporia cn their 20 yard line. Immediately they began their pass ing. McFarland hit the first receiver amidships and by the. hew rule was penalized 15 yards. Another long side line pass brought .the ball to striking distance. Washburn here recovered the ball on the three yard line and Hardy kicked from behind the goal line out of bounds. The ball was brought Into the field to the ten yard line and a neat pass to Willis resulted In a touch down for Emporia. Another series T successful passes followed the klckoff and brought Emporia to striking dis tance where Willis drop kicked a goal. The half ended with the score 16 to 9. In the third quarter Washburn kick ed off to Emporia and the latter by three passes of 15, 10 and 30 yard gains brought the ball to Washburn's 20 yard line. The heavier team was so badly disconcerted that the elated vis itors actually went on through for a touchdown by straight football and then kicked goal. Once during the quarter and the only time in the game, they held Washburn for downs but their scoring was at an end. Washburn was penalized in their one attempt at a forward pass for the thrower advancing within five yards of the scrimmage line. Emporia made a total of 20 forward passes, eleven of which were successful. There was a great deal of objection on the ground that on their double passes they viola ted the same rule as Hardy but no penalties were called. The pass as developed by the Em poria coach worked better than any seen on the local gridiron since the in vention of the play. The new rules permit the pass to be made over any part of the line. If the w-ouldbe receiver who hung out on the side line be de tected, then at the charge of the line the pass would be made over the line to a half who ran in. Or with a half and an end playing wide to draw sus picion on one end a double pass would be sent in over the line to the opposite end by the fullback and other half. Coach Stewart, owing to the poor rules defending against the forward pass in that a tackier can not tackle until the receiver has taken a step, had coached his ends to lie five yards back 'and watch the receiver. The tackles were to charge the thrower. As the thing worked out the tackles used the space for breathing and the ends for got their lesson. Until the last quar ter, the ends tried to charge the throw er from a five yard handicap and the throw would go safely over their heads. In fact Emporia worked the pass everywhere on the field, within their own 25 yard line even where or dinarily no team would take the chance and where no team will dare to in the future. Blue Jerseys were now seen flying Into the forward pass formations and their Freckles Are in Full Bloom Now But You Needn't Tolerate Them at AIL How to Remove Quickly. They are hideous things, those freckles, but easy to remove with Kin tho (extra strength). It's astonishing how thoroughly Klntho does the work. It makes people write such letters as this from Miss May L of Jamaica Plain, Mass.: "I thought it would be a failure, like all the rest I've tried, but, no. in deed! I had not used the whole jar when you could see the change. Nqw my face is free from freckles, which I could never say before." Get a two-ounce package of Klntho (extra strength) at the toilet goods counter of George W. Stansfield drug gist, 632 Kansas avenue, Topeka. and see how quickly it will remove even the worst freckles.- Get your money back if it failJ- success was past. Hardy ran 45 yards to a touchdown, but Heinzman, as lines man, had just started to the sideline to see what Coach Hargiss of the Emporia bunch was yelling about and explain ed thai he had blown his whistle ren dering the ball dead. The touchdown was disallowed and Hargiss found to be wanting the grandstand to keep quiet and the sideline to be cleared. In the last quarter the forward passes of the Presbyterians were of no avail and Titus, Tomlinson, and McFarland tore through their line at will, scoring two more touchdowns and one goal. Penalties assessed were comparative ly few. Referee Sampson, coach of the Emporia normals, penalized Coach Pep per Stewart, once for a sideline re mark, called McFarland for tackling be fore the receiver of a forward pass had got a good start and sent L. Bracken of Emporia off the field for foul language. Coach Hargiss had evidently forgotten to tell his proteges what to do in case of a try at field goal failure so when they stood paralized at Tomlinson's at tempt, he took occasion to step out with the advice to run with the ball. Heinsman heard him, blushed a little and begged pardon for noticing it, but did not declare a breach of etiquette. On another occasion, an Emporia play er left his line of scrimmage on an il legal play and drew a Washburn man offside. Sampson penalized Washburn for the offside but Umpire Cowden fail ed to assess damages for the illegal play of six men left on the scrimmage line, one running toward his own goal. The game was not so much of a contest judged from its excellence but as an indicator of prospects and test of the forward pass. The forward pass is easily the easiest way in the world to play football. The back who throws the ball can not be reached and the receiver dare not be tackled until he has securely tucked the ball under his wing and started to run. That restric tion causes the defense to play loose and back so that a good gain is almost certain from a run. by the intended passer.' But if the pass is made suc cessfully there is twenty yards for nothing. The penalty for a failure Is nothing but one down. Possession of the ball is retained and the bail is put in play just where it was snapped. Field basketball would be the proper name for the forward pass. i That the Washburn team will have to do a great deal to its defense was clearly demonstrated and the other conclusion to be drawn is that Emporia college has the snappiest and best team in its history. The south side stands were com pletely filled with rooters and north held a scattering hundred. The next game is with Baker Saturday. The lineup was as follows: Washburn DeFrantz, center; N.

The Has kell football eleven was badly beaten by the Aggies Saturday afternoon by a score of 30 to 0. The Indians were outclassed. Only once the Indians came near scoring. Not once did the Indians get through the Aggie line and when the game was about half over the Indians were asked by their coach not to try getting through the Aggie line as it was useless. After this the Indians resorted to using the forward pass and freak plays. The second and third quarters of the game were very hard fought.

There never was a sport Old Ell couldn't beat them at and make it look like the best game ever invented. What for collegians are the Colum bia university students? The trustees would now,put the great college game back on the curriculum but the stud ents do not care for it. They always did say three-fourths of the students there were Hebrews and that a real college man would go to the place. At that, they've got a good library. It is all right if it Is true, of course, for whatever Coach Alonzo does is fine because he is his own critic but you might read if over. It's another Stags stunt dispatched from Chicago: 'Mid way staggers," as Coach A. A. Stagg of the University of Chicago terms his latest gridiron movement, was prac ticed by his team yesterday. The first exhibition of the 'staggers" took place as soon as the gates were opened after secret practice. A large crowd of root ers witnessed the line of candidates drawn up in the center of the field, ap parently suffering from some nervous affliction. The forwards were hopping In quick time, clawing with their arms and veing with one another in man ufacturing gridiron grimaces. Coach Stagg explained that he had ordered the exercise, and would Insist on us ing it in every game. The Maroons will have the 'staggers' regularly on of fense, and the rooters believe their rivals will either be too astonished or too terrified to defend themselves. Coach Star- also asserted the drill was for the purpose of speeding up the team." Nebraska has five full .teams out under the direction of King Cole, head coach. Naturally the students think they will make a good showing. Out of fifty-five men 11 good ones ought to be found and a few fair substitutes beside. Harvard and Bates from up Maine mixed 17 forward passes in their an nual gridiron gruel and otherwise tried out the new rules. Harvard worked five passes with success in ten at tempts and Bates got away with three out of seven. Figuring three attempts at distance In any play, the per cent was .satisfactory. Both teams liked the features of the new rules. That big noise out in Colorado about the Denver-Marquette game was but a patching to the defiant cry issuing from Marquette. Now the Milwaukee institution's law department is said to be arranging a case of libel against the professors of the Rocky Mountain conference ho said they did not ob serve faculty rules or any other elig ibility rules. Fine ad all this har angue. Perhaps to end It the Mar quette law department will try out the case in moot court. Jealousy is said by Denve.- Univers ity people to be the cause of the con ference, knocking on the Marquette game. They say no other school in Colorado could bring a team like Mar quette, which has games In the "big eight" circle, anywhere near the mile high district. As a matter of fact the University of Colorado at Boulder, which should set the pace, lacks a good foreign drawing card as the fol lowing schedule shows: State Preparatory, Oct 1. Alumnae, Oct. 8. Wyoming In Laramie, Oct. 22. Utah in Denver, Oct. 29 at Union park. Aggies at Fort Collins. N"ov. 5. Colorado College in Boulder, Nov. 12. The Mines In Denver. Nov. 24 at Union park. This touching bit of history which probably is less liked by Fairmount than by Cooper was assembled before the Saturday game between the two schools by the Wichita F.agle: "The last time Cooper and Fair mount clashed the Sterling boys won, scoring a field goal after each side had made a touchdown. The first game between the two schools was played in 1900, Fairmount winning 10 to 6. Fairmount also won the next 6 to 0. The next two games went to Cooper, the first by a score of 11 to 6 and the second 5 to 0. Fairmount won In 1904, 17 to 11. and In 1905, 2 to 0. In 1907 two games were played Fair mount winning in Wichita, 6 to 0. and losing at Sterling, 6 to 5 There are still men on the Fairmount squad who played in those last two games Captain Plank and George Solter. That last sentence came near admit ting what is so often said of the Fair mount team but at the finish limited it to the "last two games." Everybody rea1s the State Journal. T. F.

Other items of General Inter est in Traffic World. According to reports emanating from Kl Paso and published in the newspa pers of that city, the Phelps-Dodge company, which not only controls the Copper Queen mining properties but te El Paso Southwestern railroad, is seeking an oean outlet through S;m Uiego, says the San Diago Union. Should this prove true, that quiet work and star chamber sehemings of the Southwestern officials for several months past would be explained, and t result, a practically direct line from Chicago to the Pacific coast, would prove of inestimable import ance to southern California. Several weeks ago it was announced that the Phelps-Dodge people had options on the Rock Ishfnd. .nd that subsequent ly the deal was closed whereby this concern assumed charge of the Rock Island. The Rock Island has a line from Chi cago through Missouri. Kansas, Okla homa and the .northern part of Texas, to Tucumcari, New Mexico. The El Paso Southwestern lines are the continuation from this point. The Rock Island has for years been running its trains into El Paso over the South western tracks, from Tucumcari. The Southwestern, however, after passing L vrir The Flour that Mother Used Couldn't begin to com pare with "White Loaf." We'll not say it makes bread like mother made for it makes a hole lot better.

It is known that the Southwestern people have been working toward se curing an outlet on the coast for months. Early in the spring, officials denied this, stating the idea had been given up because a suitable right of way could not be obtained. Later it was announced that the Southwestern would extend its lines through Tucson and up to Phoenix, tapping the re sourceful Salt river valley, but would make no attempt to reach the coast. From subsequent developments, it Is believed that the line will not only be extended to Tucson, but that it will eventually reach Yuma and San Diego. According to latest advices, the South western surveyers are still working In the practically undeveloped regions west of Hereford, Arizona. "While the road will no doubt reach Tucson, it will be extended on to Yuma through this new country, cross-cutting into the Port Lrobos line and thereby being able to get at the products of the Port Lobos district before the Southern Pa cific -n reach them. According to the information obtain ed in El Paso, said to come from Southwestern officials themselves, an entrance into Los Angeles, via San Diego, will be the result, although nothing is said about right of ways be tween that city and Los Ageles. It is understood, however, that a coast gate wav is the main thing desired, and that if San Diego is reached, it will satisfy the Phelps-Dodge people. This would rival the direct lines of the Santa Fe and cause a struggle Df note between these two roads. SANTA FE BUYS XEW CARS. But Railroad Buying Over Country Is I'irusually Slow. Chicago, Oct. 3. Railroads are do ing very little buying, and say that tney win not De in the market for equipment for some time to come. They are well supplied with what they have in hand and already ordered, the greater part of which is in process of manufacture. The Santa Fe has re cently bought 1,000 steel underframe refrigerator cars. Western railroads have bought 15,000 tons of steel rails. Plate and structural orders are light. Business in pig iron aggregated 20, 000 tons, but inquiries toward the last of the week were light. A feature here has been the disposition among furnace men to contract for 1911 de livery, but so far little business of this character has been closed. There Is uneasiness in the steel trade, and independents are cutting prices. It is said that the leading steel interest is doing some shading, but the disposition of the latter is not to re duce prices until absolutely necessary, and to permit the independents to fill up with small orders at low prices, and then take the large ones at Its own figures. RAISING THEIR OWN TIES. Santa Fe to Plant One Million Euca lyptus Trees. One million eucalyptus trees are to be planted on the Santa Fe's eucalyp tus ranch at San Degulto. near San Diego. According to Vice President W. E. Hodges, who has Just completed a thorough inspection of the ranch, the trees are to be planted this year. The ties for 17.000 miles of track of the Santa Fe system are supplied by the purchasing department, of which Mr. Hodges is the head, and although extensive contracts have been let for foreign ties the vice president's hopes for the future are based in the com pany's experiment in forestry at the San Degulto ranch. The trees planted three years ago have attained astonish ing growth, it is said and Mr. Hodges expects that within a few more years they will be ready to cut for ties. From Mexico. Hawaii and Japan the Santa Fe is receiving millions of ties at the present time, the contracts which the company has let for ties from those places being the most ex tensive ever let. E. O. Faulkner, man ager of the tie and timber depart ment has recently returned from Hawaii, where the Santa Fe placed an order for the entire product of ochla timber, which makes the most durable ties yet experimented with. Two years ago an order was placed for 2,500.000 ochia ties. From Mexico the Santa Fe is now receiving a million ties of 16 native i hard woods, including mahogany and 'ebony, and from Japan and Tasmania i a number of caeoes on a large con tract have already been unloaded at San Pedro. The Mexican ties are re ceived at New Orleans. The ranch at San Degulto com prises 175,000 acres. The Santa Fe yearly uses about 4,000,000 ties R. R. Y. M. C. A. IN WELLINGTON Santa Fe Men Will Try to Influence Their Company. Wellington, Oct. 3. For some time past there has been talk of a railroad Y. M. C. A. here, and the movement to secure one has now started in earn est. M. C. Burton of the Division Freight office has written to the of ficials of the company in regard to the matter and while no satisfactory answers have yet been received, he is still keeping the matter before them. Mr. Burton has also written to the manager of the Santa Fe reading room and aid in the matter is sought. It is planned to bring the state sec retary of the Y. M. C. A. here at some future time and sret his assistance in starting the movement. The Santa Fe boys are ready to work with others for a Y. M. C. A. and would be glad to get into communication with any one who will help them out and aid the cause. MARYSVILLE IS HARD HIT. Union Pacific Closes Ballast Plant 200 Men Out of Work. Marysville, Kan.. Oct. 3. The re trenchment in railroad expenses which has been affecting the whole country has reached Marysville. Unless there is a change in the orders, all work at the Marysville Ballast Plant will be susoended after tomorrow. The road has need for all the bal last the plant can produce but It is said that money matters are so close that retrenchment of expenses has been ordered from headquarters and all improvements will be temporarily abandoned. The ballast plant here has given employment to about one hundred peo ple at the plant and probably about an equal number have been employed in the ballasting and in operating the extra trains to haul the ballast. The closing down of the plant will leave about two hundred people to seek employment elsewhere. NEW TRAIN ON L. K. W. Morning Service From Onega to Leavenworth to Be Provided. Frank J. Rvan. state railroad com missioner, has received a letter from A. L. Mohler. vice-president of the Union Pacific Railroad, informing him that additional passenger service will be given on the Leavenworth, Kansas Western branch of the Union Pacific railroad running west from Leaven worth. A morning train is to start from Onaga and run to Leavenworth and from there to Lawience. The motor car service between Leavenworth and Lawrence will be taken off. The morn ing passenger train leaving Leaven worth and running to Miltonville is to continue as at present. Leavenworth business interests have been trying for several years to have train service from the west over this road. YOUNG PORTER GETS JOB. Kansas .Tn-tlce's Son on Kansas Uni versity Faculty Staff. Lawrence, Kan., Oct. 3. Elliott Por ter, son of Justice Silas Porter of To peka. has been appointed assistant In structor in physiology on the faculty of the University of Kansas. Although Mr. Porter is still in his senior year at the school, his thorough knowledge of the subject has won him a place on the faculty. He has been a student at Kansas university for two years. He spent his second year In Monmouth college at Monmouth, 111. NOTES OF THE COURTS. A case against Paul R. Brewington, brought in the court of Topeka on the complaint of Harry Miller, agent for the Scotch Woolen mills, on a charge of issuing a bad check, has been dis missed. Brewington gave a check for to against the Bank of Topeka which that institution refused to honor. On the adjustment of the claim the charge was withdrawn and the case dismissed. A fine of $20 was paid in police court Saturday by Joseuph Bullock, a young man of Russian descent, on a charge of going home drunk and abus ing his family. The arrest was made by Patrolman Walker who was called to the scene of the disturbance In North Topeka by the protests of the wife who objected to her husband's demonstration. Ban State Legal Department in His Cturt. THREATS OFBRANDING Two Other Judiciary Jlenibres Keply to ExecutiTe. Incidents Are Taken in State as a "Uograll." Columbus, Kan., Oct. 3. Governor Stubbs of Kansas has met his first Waterloo. A judge of the district court by his own appointment has in formed the 'governor through the at torney general that the head of the state's legal department has no rights in his court. It all came about through the visit of an assistant attorney gen era here, who appeared to take charge of the prosecution of violators of the prohibitory liquor law. A few weeks ago Judge McNeil of the district court here resigned. Gov ernor Stubbs appointed as his succes sor Judge Bulger, who was nominated by the Republicans for that office at the August primaries. The action tak en by Judge Bulger is likely to be come an epidemic over the state, and other district judges may join in the crusade, which will cut oft and de plete the fees that have been flow ing into the office of the attorney gen eral through his assistants. Every day Judge Bulger is expect ing to hear from Governor Stubbs with a command to permit the at torney general or his assistants to try the joint cases before his court. But Judge Bulger is firm and declares that it is the business of the county attorney to try these cases, and that appears to settle it. for Attorney Gen eral Jackson and his assistants have returned to Topeka to take up the work of the state's legal department. Attorney General Jackson holds that his department has the legal right to prosecute liquor violators in dependently of county attorneys, and he says he will be doing it in Judge Bulger's court just as soon as he can obtain action from the supreme court of the state. Just how the attention of the supreme court will be called to the matter has not been deter mined. There appears to be a good joke on Governor Stubbs in the appoint ment of Judge Bulger. Usually the governor exacts a pledge from a dis trict judge. In advance of his appoint ment, that he will lend every aid in the enforcement of the prohibitory law. Whether this pledge was ex acted of Bulger is not known, for the judge will not tell. Governor Stubbs delights to put his branding iron on recreant public officials, or, rather, officials that he thinks are not per forming their full duty. Some months ago he wrote to two district Judges that he intended to "brand" them publicly if they didn't tighten up the lid on Ahe liquor cases. He told them that; their conduct was a disgrace to the bench, and unless they mended their ways he would ex pose them. GREATEST GUSHER IN WORLD. Artesian Well Means Rejuvenation of Kansas Land. Hutchinson, Kan., Oct. 3. The greatest artesian well in the Mississip pi valley and probably in the world, has been opened at Richfield, in Mor ton county, Kansas. It is one of the most wonderful fields any country has ever known, and is expected to revo lutionize things in southwest Kansas. The well, brought in nearly three weeks ago, which showed a flow of 250 gallons a minute, soon after. Is now said to bring up 1,100 gallons a min ute. McKinley W. Krelgh, who lives In Stanton county, near Johnson City, north of Morton county, has written his father, Philip Kreigh. here, that the flow is that strong. The Richfield Monitor says that the well started at 200 gallons a minute, soon grew to 600. and by Saturday had reached 1,100 gallons a minute. The Monitor says: "Last week, when the water was first struck, the flow was estimated at something over 200 gallons per min ute. The drill had only struck the artesian flow when the report was pub lished. Sunday when a second meas urement was made, it was found to be running at the rate of 600 gallons, or nearly three times the original flow. "There are continually large chunks of clay being precipitated to the sur face by the force of the water, and thrown out at the top. The well is being gradually cleaned out by the pressure of the water, and the flow has increased until now It is pouring' out at the top of the big 10-inch casing, 1,100 gallons of the finest, clearest, purest of water from a distance of 682 feet under the earth. "Taking Into consideration the rain fall of this country and the fact that water for Irrigation purposes is only needed during a period of the summer season, it is easy to figure that a well running 1,100 gallons of water per petually, every minute of the time, would be sufficient to irrigate a section of land." MOCK HANGING A WARNING. Anti-Horse Thief Association Gives Vivid Demonstration. Cedar Point, Kan., Oct. 3. The let ters "A. H. T. A." adorn thousands of buttons worn by Kansas farmers, and they are the insignia of honor and obedience to law. The Kansas Anti Horse Thief association waits not upon sheriffs and other peace officers, but proceeds to business without cere mony. If a horse is stolen in any county of the state the members leave their plows and reapers in the fields, saddle their best riding horses and, armed with six-shooters and Winches ters, start in pursuit of the thief. Sometimes warnings are issued and object lessons pulled off that tend to steer the route of the professional horse thief into other localities. This happened here a few days ago. Three thousand persons had assembled at Cedar Point to take part in an all-day picnic, arranged by the local Anti Horse Thief association. State and lo cal candidates for office of both parties were there to make medicine, but all were interested in the event that should act as an object lesson to horse thieves who might be lurking in that community. A horseman was waylaid and robbed of his horse. The horse thief was chased around over the big alfalfa field and wasfinally lassoed and pulled from his horse by a party of anti hprse thief men. He was then drag ged across the alfalfa field at the end of a rope by a galloping horseman and A CENTER FOR BLOODED STOCK Mitchell County Live Stock Men Are ot Wide Awake Class. Beloit, Kan.. Oct. 3. The Mitchell County Breeders' association was or ganized in February, 1907. It start ed in with seven members. On the 27th of September, last, its member ship had increased to 211. The as sociation holds banquets twice a year. and invite speakers of note who are interested in breeding and agriculture to address them. At the banquet given last week more than 200 plates were served. H. J. Waters, president of the state agricultural board, was the principal speaker. John M. Rod gers, secretary of the breeders' asso ciation, acted as toastmaster. In the introduction of Mr. Waters the toast- master said. among other good things: "Mr. Waters is the best presi- j dent of the best agricultural college i in the best state in the Union." which j brought forth a hearty sentiment, as th happy handclapping indicated. The officers of the association are Dr. C. B. Kern, president, and J. M. Rodgers. secretary. The Mitchell County State-Wide Fair association and the breeders' association work together in har mony. The main feature is for the breeding and raising of good stock, and with this in view an active inter est Is taken. There are more good herd? of Per cherons In Mitchell county than in any state west of the Mississippi river. Besides these are several herds of Herefords and Shorthorn cattle. As a live stock center Mitchell is one of the banner counties in the state. The ribbons the breeders win at state and international fairs will rank with most counties and surpass many of them. J. W. Johnson, who lives here, is one of the active field men of the Breeders' Special, published in Kan sas City, Mo. He is thoroughly post ed in matters of stock and a close observer and he says the Mitchell County Breeders' association is among the best organizations of the kind in the state, and he hopes to see other counties follow in the steps Mitchell county has. BELOIT FAIR A GREAT SUCCESS Eight Thousand People Were on the Grounds Bryan Day. Beloit, Kan.. Oct. 3. There was an attendance of about 10,000 at the big day of the Mitchell county state-wide fair. Some estimated not less than 500 autos on the grounds at one time. Delegations of visitors were present from all the towns in the county, as well as from Lincoln, Jewell, Smith, Osborne and Cloud. The big day was also Bryan day. He spoke to a crowd conservatively estimated at not less than 8.000. His speech was along political lines, and he was listened to with great interest. Among other distinguished persons present was ex-judge R. R. Rees of Minneapolis, candidate for congress in the Fifth district; Frank S. Rocke feller of Russell, Democratic candi date for congress in the Sixth district; I. D. Young Republican candidate for congress In the Sixth district, and Judge R. M. Pickler of Smith cen ter, judge of the Seventeenth district. At the close of Mr. Bryan's speech he took an auto for Mankato. accom panied by Mr. Rockefeller, where he addressed another large meeting in the interest of Mr. Rockefeller's can didacy for congress. The fair association is entitled to the honor of securing W. J. Bryan and the Democratic candidate for congress. Frank 8. Rockefeller. They proved great drawing cards. FROM POVERTY TO RICHES. Kansan Gets Notice of Fortune When Compelled to Quit Work. Hutchinson. Kan., Oct. 3. Terence F. Fox. a reporter for many years, who was forced to retire last month on ac count of failing eyesight, has received news that he is the direct heir to a fortune of more than $1,500,000. Cox formerly worked an a Topeka paper. The news cames from the Mexican government through the British em bassy, and there is every evidence that it is on good authority. Mr. Cox has retained Walter F. Jones as his legal adviser to look after his interests. The estate to which Mr. Cox is one of the heirs is that of his great uncle, Roger McDermott. who died recently in the City of Mexico. McDermott amassed a fortune in the southern re public. He died a short time ago, childless, his two sons having died, one perishing at sea and the other dying in Mexico. This left as the next direct heirs to the estate McDermott's two nieces, Mrs. Margaret M. Cox of New York city and Mrs. Kate McGowan of Swin ford county, Maryland. Mrs. Cox, who Is an old woman. Is the mother of Terence F. Cox of Hutchinson, and it was through her that he becomes an heir to the estate. WANTS ILARRIS MEMORIAL. President Waters of K. S. A- C. Would Have It on College Campus. Manhattan, Kan., Oct. 3. Henry J. Waters, president of the Kansas State Agricultural college, would like to see the proposed monument or memorial to Senator William A. Harris erected on the college campus. "It would be very appropriate to have the monument here," President Waters said. "Senator Harris was a regent of this institution at the time of his death. He did as much as anyone in the interest of scientific agriculture in Kansas. "Another thing, the monument would be an inspiration for the stu dents. Every time they saw it they would be reminded of a great man and his public service." INJURED BOY WALKS MILE. Chase County I .ad Was After Cows and Horse Fell on Him. Cottonwood Falls, Kan.. Oct. 3.

The State Journal !s a member of the Associated Press and receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or ganization for the exclusive afternoon publication In Topeka. The news Is received In The State Jour nal building over wires for this sole pur rose. Back from Elba but no Waterloo. The hobble skirt Is likely to con tinue popular with women aviators. The trunk of the New York ele phant Is now of the Saratoga variety. Roosevelt and Hearst pulling at the Hme load should make a winning team. When It comes to bossing a conven tion, the colonel must give it to Charles I". Murphy. Colonel Roosevelt did better at Sar atoga than in Africa. Ha captured the elephant alive. A head line in an exchange reads: 'Jim Jeffries refuses to talk." Then lie really has retired from the ring. Perhaps Walter Wellman is only Waiting for the excitement engendered vt Saratoga and Rochester to die away. Even the name George Washington Ifloes not save a man from arrest in Topeka, when he is suspected of sell ing beer. A member of the Steel trust advises young men to follow the plow. The more plows In use the more business for the Steel trust. There is a law in New Tork against carrying concealed weapons, but there are indications that there will be seme knifing done this fall. The Democrats in New York have declared for the "old nationalism." The party just can't get away from Jefferson and Jackson. Laura Jean Libbey says she gained experience enough on the vaudeville Btage for fifty novels. It is time for publishers to take to the woods. insanity by means of moving pictures. This calls to mind the old adage about the hair of the dog being good for the fcite. Bouquet from the Chicago News: "When one comes to think of it, why Should not common honesty in politics fce as popular in New York as in Kan sas?" Oklahoma appears to be confronted (pith a period of dull times. There flon't seem to be any charges pend ing against Gov. Haskell, on which lie can be tried. State political conventions this year u a rule have avoided any reference to the income tax amendment to the constitution. It looks like a concerted jplan to let it die. Just to show he meant it when he eaid he would use federal patronage for political ends. President Taft has placed 8,000 assistant postmasters un ier the civil service rules. Of course, it is impossible to tell ac curately what the verdict of the JLorlmer investigation committee wITT fce, but Senator Julius Caesar Burrows of Michigan Is chairman. If the railroads should be prevented from advancing freight rates why not make a fight for the removal of the tariff from steel rails. Free rails would Xnean a lot of money to them. In New York both parties are com mitted In their platforms to a state primary law. After the performances at Saratoga and Rochester, the ne cessity of such legislation is apparent. Following the universal practice of people engaged in trade, the milk men announce they will shift the burden of increased taxation onto the ultimate consumers. This is what every tradesman does but not all are so frank about it as are the milk dealers. Referring to the Democratic bolt on the head of the ticket in Tennessee the Washington Star says: "Is anything more necessary to prove that the period is one of unrest and surprises? Were, ever the exclamation point and the interrogation point more freely used than now? Who may say what a day may bring forth? Who's who? What's what? And even when the answer is given, who may say that the answer will answer two days run ning?" American consular agents in Japan report that the women of this coun try spend many thousands of dollars each year adorning their heads with hair from Japanese women. Japanese exporters have been catering to the human hair trade In the United States several years, and have m-nreil n mid profitable business. Official reports snow that last vear Kohe alnre ported to the United States $27,608 worth of human hair. This hair has steadily risen in price and now com mands $70 per 100 pounds. Fashion's decree has constantly Increased the J -i ueiiiana in tnis country, and the pur chase price has Jumped $15 per 100 pounds within the last 12 months. TRAINING THE HAND. Manual training-in the public schools has made considerable progress in this country In the past few years, but it must be regarded as still In its in fancy when compared with the work that is being done in Germany. The report on the organization and curricula of the Compulsory Trade and Continuation Schools for Boys in Mun ich has lust been received in this emm. try. In characteristic German style every detail of a complicated and thoroughgoing organization nf th liC SChOOl system Of Munich in nrmHHii adequate training in 52 different trades ana occupations has been set forth. From the mechanical trades rpniHrinir the longest apprenticeship and the greatest basis of scientific knowledge down to such occupations as hair dressing and waiting on table, provis ion is made for the compulsory at tendance of every boy in Munich. There is hardly a trade that can be named which is susceptible of adaptation to purposes of instruction that has not been provided for. Such thorough going provision for industrial education is considered responsible for the mar velous commercial expansion of Gen many during the last 20 years. PUNISHMENT FOR CRIME. Dungeon, starvation, silence, the solitary cell, darkness and corporal punishment have been largely dis credited in American reformatories, according to the report of the commit tee on reformatory work and parole made to the American Prison associa tion. This is encouraging. It has taken a long time to break away from the cus toms established by our remote ances tors, but fortunately the world does not stand still or move backwards. We of this generation will not live to see it, but the time will come when the people of the United States will be sufficiently Christianized to do away with every form of punishment as such. Restraint of those who offend against the common welfare is neces sary and proper, but punishment, as such, never did and never can do any good. Even Spain is generally con sidered the least enlightened and pro gressive of all the European countries has abolished the death penalty. We do not punish the insane, the idiotic or people otherwise deficient. We restrain and take care of them. Why then should the unfortunate criminal be singled out for the whip ping post and the dungeon? The old system of dealing with law breakers is a confession of weakness and incompetency to which the public has not liked to subscribe. That punishment of others does not deter the criminally inclined when at large is amply illustrated by the fre quent stories of lynchings In the country- Instead of hanging or burning the offender at the stake, it probably would prove much more effective to simply render him incapable of repeat ing his crime. MORE AVAVS THAN ONE. That some way can be found, al ways, to do things needful, when a community Is wide awake and deter mined, is well illustrated by a report from the American consul at Nogales. He made a visit to the mining town of Cananea, In the state of Sonora, and this is what he found: The city of Cananea is divided into two sections the Mesa or residence portion, and the Ronquillo, or busi ness portion separated by a steep hill, which has been a great impediment to traffic. To overcome this difficulty, a street is being cut through the hill by city convict labor a distance of 1,640 feet, with a width of 8 2 feet. The ex cavation will be 30 feet deep, and on a cross street a stone bridge will be erected 25 feet wide. The sides of the cut will be walled with concrete, with a concrete coping four feet high. Granatoid sidewalk will be laid on both sides of this street for a dis tance of ten blocks (3,930 feet) 10 feet wide. Three public school buildings will be erected, with a capacity for accommo dating, respectively, 300, 200 and 100 pupils. For the maintenance of these schools the municipal authorities, with the approval of congress, have levied a monthly school tax upon all em ployees, the tax 25 cents gold per month for each employee whose monthly wages amount to less than $50 and 50 cents per month for all whose wages are $50 or more to be with held from their wages by the em ployers. Health as a Public Asset. The Pennsylvania state board of health rerorts that the expenditure of J 3,0 00,000 in four years in the inter est of the public health has resulted in saving $23,000,000 to the common wealth. This is conservation of a most desir able quality. It goes toward main taining those greatest resources of a state which lie in a people rich in physical and mental well-being. The Pennsylvania board has fought diphtheria effectively with antitoxin. It has reduced the death rate from con sumption, "the white plague," from in to 120 per thousand, and is about to do better by adding two new tuber culosis colonies to the one now in oper ation. It has cut the typhoid rate in half by shutting off fever breeding nuisances in streams, open drains and insanitary premises. When Dr. Wiley was reminded in Washington Saturday of commercial interests involved under the rigor of his pure food rulings, "I don't give a hang," said he. "for the business world. What I care for Is the health of the people." As the Pennsylvania board shows us in figures, public good health is a public asset. New York World. To Freshen Great Salt Lake. A most ingenious scheme for making nature "as It ought to be" is that now proposed for dividing the great Salt Lake into two parts, one of which shall in time become fresh. This would give the community the recreationary advantage of both kinds of water, be sides affording irrigation facilities for a great area, and incidentally furnish ing some much-needed waterpower. In theory the scheme is simple. The lake is salt because It has no outlet. The evaporation over so great an era at a high altitude as this cov ers offsets the inflow. This process, continued through unnumbered cen turies, has left a basin of very salt water. It is now proposed to construct a dike, by the aid of several islands already there, to shut off the eastern corner of the lake, where all affluents, curiously enough, enter. Such a lake would have an outflow substantially equal to its Inflow, and so after it had become fresh would remain so. Just like any other normal body of water. Its level would be raised somewhat higher than the Salt Lake nearby. To that ancient body the overflow would drop, after such of it as was needed for irrigation had been withdrawn. The fall between the two lakes would fur nish electric power. The strip of ter ritory between the two would become a unique inland summer resort, with salt water on one side and fresh water on the other, although one not entire ly unknown at the seacoast. Stupend ous as this work would be. It might not prove more ambitious than the Lucin cutoff across that lake, upon which E. H. Harriman spent $15,000,000. Boston Transcript. JAYHAVSKER JOTS A "progressive" Is apparently an In surgent before a convention and a standpatter afterwards, says the Leav enworth Post. It does beat the band, says Bert Walker, how many persons you will run across who "Just can't sleep a bit in a Pullman car." I never can either but it is because I haven't the price. Girls are so competent to take care of themselves these days, says the Jewell Republican, that they don't have to marry anybody. If one of them consents to keep house for you count it as a compliment and a great favor. White ants are doing considerable damage over in Smith county, says the Smith County Pioneer. Bob Nulty was greatly surprised one day recently when one of his young sons fell through the" floor of the kitchen in the Mrs. Bryan house which the Nulty family is occupying. Investigation re vealed thousands of white ants at work in the floor. Their presence had not been suspected, and undisturbed they had so honeycombed the floor that It is practically ruined. The magazines are overlooking a good thing in Ottawa as the following from the Republic will prove: "Through all of the long hours of the morning, from the time Old Sol began to put golden hearts into the dew diamonds that sparkled on sward and foliage, until the practical steam whistles or trade announced the noon hour, a young girl stood on a porch of the court house and manipulated love s telephone througn eyes that were fastened on a little win dow cruelly slashed with iron bars. Be hind this grim lattice fidgeted a rest less youth who on the one hand viewed a prospect of immediate freedom with a yearning bride to solace him for the weary hours of imprisonment: on the other he faced a grim alternative of consignment to long years of ignomin ious imprisonment. Frank Samuelson, a well-to-do farm er over in Smith county, was lonesome and heartsick, says the Osborne Farm er, so he advertised in a matrimonial paper and got results. Last week the object of his devotion appeared there in the person of Lizzie Livings of Cairo. 111. She appeared disappointed when she saw Frank and to make her love him more he deeded her a good quar ter section of land in Yuma county, Col. He had previously given her sev eral hundred dollars in money, a big diamond and other jewelry. She took Frank by the ear and hunted up some lawyers and had the matter straight ened out. She gave back half the land, but kept all the jewelry and money and then took the next train for her Illi nois home, and Frank's hearthstone will remain vacant awhile longer. GLOBE SIGHTS. From the Atchison Globe. An old man below town claims to have been a soldier in the rebellion. We doubt it. He doesn't get a pen sion, and when a man is entitled to a pension, he gets it. The man who pays an old debt which has almost been forgotten, at tracts a lot of attention and some praise, but he isn't as deserving as the man who pays promptly. When anyone promises us a sofa cushion or a loaf of rye bread, we keep r'ter it until we get it. Miss Anna Ellis Dexter and Mrs. Alois Phillpp will please take notice. The ugliest sign in Atchison was paln'ted by the proprietor's- cousin, who came here on a visit from Chi cago. The cousin claimed to be one of the best sign writers in Chicago. Insurgency is promising the people free groceries next year, and then ex plaining next year that it is impos sible to carry out the promise, owing to the meanness of the corporations. Ever notice how unconsciously and easily a woman works a fan? An Atchison man says his wife can sleep soundly all night, and fan herself every minute of the time she is asleep. If you want to amount to anything in life, show your ambition before you reach the age when glasses will be necessary: After that yovi will spend half your time in wiping them. When a woman's dry goods bill amounts to $50, she finds considerable consolation when her husband grum bles in the reflection that he would grumble just as much If it were only $25. An Atchison man says that in one block today he was expected to ad mire a worthless looking little dog, the pet of a friend; to laugh at three children stories told by parents; to sympathize with a man who has hives; to become excited over a friend's baby who at seven months has two teeth, and to rave over an ordi nary looking apple from a farmer's orchard. "I don't expect many farmers in to the horse show," said Bryan Smith today; "they're so busy taking care of the unusual amount of stuff they have." For heaven's sake, when will the farmers get through with their work, and be at liberty to come to town and trade? Are the town peo ple never to get a chance at the money the eastern papers say Kansas farmers have? An Atchison girl was told she had an imperious disposition, and felt im mensely flattered. She imagined fcije looked queenly carrying around an imperious disposition; that people must wonder how a girl with an imperious disposition like hers be longed to parents who were plain Mr. and Mrs. One day she happened to come across the word "imperious" in the dictionary., and read: "A person with an imperious disposition is one who exercises authority in an offen isive manner." KANSAS COMMENT HARD NUT TO CRACK. A delicate point in the religio-edu-cational science has been raised by the faculty of Ottawa University. The faculty bases its recent ruling which divides the boys from the girls in chapel seating, upon the assumption that when the sexes congregate in chapel the spirit of religion is farther from their minds than If the sexes were separated. This is a delicate matter and re solves itself into the finely discrim inative questions: Which is upper most in the minds of the college youth, religion or girls; when is the mind most susceptible to religion, and is the power of religious fervor di visible by the greatest common divi sor of Girlology as an abstract sci ence? Also, if this is the case, why, and how long will the patient survive the malady? It is the primary object of the fac ulty to see that the greatest educa tional, social and religious advance ment be made in a given time. But it is the social development and the social side of the college life that be comes entangled in the sentiments and the convictions of the student body. It is a question of no mean import that is bothering the students and faculty. When the college girl and the college boy sit together, which Is uppermost in the mind, sentiment or religion? Taking the student end of the argument: it is probable that by constant practice the half hour of chapel time can be gradually devel oped into a time when religion is up permost. But it is this period of prac tice to which the faculty objects. And there you are. Then, again; it depends largely up on the appearance of the girl. If the amount of false hair be unusually great it is probable that neither re ligion nor sentiment nor yet love can gain a stronghold in the minds of those who sit near or behind her dur ing chapel exercises. On the other hand, some college girls are so at tractive that it is almost impossible for the average youth within good eye shot to think of religion or even foot ball while she Is near. So it becomes apparent that this Is no equal ground upon which the fac ulty and students are figuratively sparring for a decision. There should be a prize offered for the correct so lution, all contributions to be sent by unprejudiced persons neither married nor single nor divorced. It is the only fair way. Ottawa. Herald. FAILED TO LAND HIM. How to aid Cupid is a problem that a prominent young society lady in Manhattan has endeavored to solve. She went to Clay Center, bought a Perfectly Lovely diamond ring on the installment plan, and coming home, exhibited it to the young man she Is trying to land, as an evidence of the esteem in which she is held in Certain Quarters in Clay Center. The young man is expected to show a great eag erness to possess so much charm, but so far there is a dismal lack of re sults. Manhattan Mercury. RAILROAD RATES AND WAGES. It is perfectly natural for the em ployees of the railroads to make com mon cause v ith their employers against the rest of the country. How the shippers and how the consumers fare is none of their business. They want more wages; the companies tell them that their income is insufficient; the most natural thins in the world. then, is for them to insist that the rest of the country shall furnish the railroad corporations with more in come. But whether the companies really need more income to pay the going rates of wages the employes cannot know anv better than the rest of the community knows. The employes of the steel companies, wnicn are ex porting enormous amounts of their products, know no more about the relation of their wages to the pro tective tariff demanded by their em ployers than any one else knows. They have simply the employer's statement for it, and every employer feels that he is paying more wages than he ought to, and is not making as much profit as he should. The Illinois Central has in ten years sold to its shareholders for $49,000,- 000 stock worth in the market about $75,000,040, and it claims the right to pay the shareholders 7 per cent dividends, or more, on the stock they never paid for as well as on that which they have paid for. The Chicago Northwestern exceeding its capital; a trifle more than 10 per cent annually. The New York Central has inflated its capital, and its shares are well above par. The Lehigh Valley has been making 20 per cent, more or less. All the companies are allowing sleep ing car and express companies to do business on their lines at profits to these outside companies so high that they have to make stock dividends of large amounts from time to time to get rid of the surplus, and then they pay high dividends on the stock so given away. There are other railroads whose earnings are much more modest, and some earn little or nothing, but whether the railroads ought to get more money out of the community in order to pay good wages to their em ployes is a thing the employes know no more about than anybody else. Phila delphia Record. THE HUMAN ELEMENT. Many of this year's state platforms of the political parties depart a little from the beaten path. They mention topics which the platform makers of a few years ago would have dismissed with contempt as outside the pale of politics as they defined It. They would have said that those topics should be left to the "sociological fellows." The platforms of the Illinois Repub licans and Democrats pronounce un equivocally for an employers' liability law. So does that of Wisconsin. Th cruel injustice of a system which leaves the men disabled in the indus trial service of the country to take care of themselves has at last become a matter of party concern, an injustice which political organizations can with propriety promise to end. The Wisconsin platform also favors legislation to regulate the working hours of women and children. There is a touch of tenderness, or regard for the weak, in this. The demand for the, physical valuation of railroads which Is found in the platform may be a de mand which should be attended to, but it will not appeal so favorably to the people as the manifestation of interest In the welfare of women and children. This humanizing of party platforms is a pleasing spectacle. They will al ways retain their customary features. Economy and efficiency will be prom ised and the extravagance and in efficiency of the other fellows de nounced, but they will be more inter esting because they will have more to say about human beings and their per sonal welfare. Chicago Tribune. FROM OTHER PENS THE LESSON. I did not know the sky could be So very soft, so very blue; I did not know the land and sea Could spread so fair before my view, Until I learned one cloudless day To bariish hatred from my heart, To put my foolish doubts away. And bid my envy to depart. I did not know how richly I With priceless eifts had been endowed With health and strength, I knew not wny I might be glad and brave and proud, Until I learned to cease to grieve Because some other won success. But strove the harder to fc-chleve The fair rewards of worthiness. S. E. Kiser in the Chicago Record Herald. 1 THE EVENING STORY The Prince's Pearls. (By Izola Forrester.) "If you are not engaged to him you had no right to accept such a gift." Lorraine smiled slightly, aggravat ingly, and lifted her supple, express ive shoulders in a way that Intimated it was none of Mr. Maxon's business what she accepted from a certain party. "Doesn't it seem glorious to see dear old New York lift out of the mist again?" she said, leaning over the rail as the liner slipped leisurely up the bay after they passed the Narrows. "I shouldn't think you'd care much about it, or any other share of your native land," retorted Maxon bitter ly. "You're ready and willing enough to throw up the whole thing and live abroad the rest of your life in some miserable, deserted, moldy old castle in Hungary that's a." decrepit and played out as the princely line you will belong to. Lorraine "Do be quiet. There comes the cus tom house people." "What of It?" Lorraine hesitated and laughed. "I hardly think that mamma has the cash tj pay duty on the prince's pearls," she said. "Won't it be a tragedy if they take them away from me?" "I hope they do." Jack Maxon's lips set in a close line. He stood Just behind Lorraine, his hands folded, his cap pulled well over his dark eyes and watched the arrival of the cus tom people and health officers. "Where are they?" asked Mrs. El lison's voice behind them. She did not look worried at all, merely inter ested and alert. Lorraine answered without looking up from the dancing, churning waters about the prow. "Around my throat." "Beneath your gown?" Lorraine nodded and smiled. and Mrs. Ellison said no more, but smiled out at New York City's outline com placently. "Jack, my dear, won't you fetch my binoculars?" she said tactfully. "Marie will give them to you. No. 11, you know, outside to your left. So sweet of you." As Jack strode haughtily away out of hearing she leaned over Lorraine. "Somebody has told that you are wearing the prince's nearls. The newspaper men, I think. One tried to talk to me Just now." How would they know? Lor raine's tones were curiously disinter ested. She was thinking of all Jack Maxon had dared to tell her since they first sighted Sandy Hook that morning. The slender, corseted form of the prince faded almost in obscur ity beside Jacks stalwart American ism, and Lorraine was thinking ot many other things besides the pearls. Yet she had told the simple truth. She wore them, the entire five strand necklace of exquisitely matched sea treasure, beneath her traveling gown of gray serge. And rumor over in Rome and Paris had more than hint ed that the pearls were worth close to half a million dollars- The center, pear shaped pendant alone had come from the turban of the Nadir of Afghanistan once upon a time. and had cost the house of Ravenelli over $200,000. Yet the prince who had purchased it had hung It on the fore head of his Tuscan bride and -vowed it too poor an ornament matched against the splendor of her flashing eyes. The present prince had men tioned something of the same senti ment when he had sent the necklace to the Ellison hotel the day before they sailed for home. And there had been trouble. "I will never accept such a gift from a man whom I dislike," Lor raine had said passionately. "If you are fool enough to refuse them," said Mrs. Ellison, thoughtfully examining the strands, "I shall ac cept them for you. You are not en gaged yet, dear, and under no obliga tion. These pearls might be a mere philopena present." Yes, they might, mamma, they might!" Lorraine's tone of scorn had been Indescribable. But the pearls had not been sent back. First, be cause the prince himself had left for Hungary on a shooting expedition with the crown prince of some little principality, and the pearls remained around Lorraine's throat as the saf est place for such a treasure. One mistake she had made. She had worn them openly at the ship's concert. Not that any one on board had known their history, but Jack Maxon had seen them and noted them, and he alone of their fellow passen gers knew that the Ellisons did not have cash or credit enough in the world to buy the smallest pearl on the prince's necklace, not the smallest one. large as a hazelnut, and flawless, and worth ten thousand in the market at Ceylon. Jack had been her faithful adorer and comrade ever since they had built sand tunnels together at Atlantic City years ago. Sometimes, in spite of Mrs. Ellison s careful training, Lorraine would look at Jac". and speculate on several points not down in her mother's code of word- ly welfare. He was such a splendid pleader. All the way over he had begged and scold ed and made love to her and stormed, and Lorraine had kept silent. And al ways wht)e she listened to Jack Max on's pleading she felt the slender strands of pearls press like 'lead about her throat. Sometimes it seemed as if they would choke her. Mrs. Ellison kept close to her as they landed and went to the custom oflicers. She had declared everything, every thing except the prince's pearls. Jack stood with Lorraine, talking earnest ly while the trunks were gone through, and Mrs. Ellison answered questions for both in the superbly disinterested, tactful way she had. But all at once Lorraine's quick glances saw what was happening. A young chap had entered quietly and caught her eye. He went to the official who was conducting the appraisal and whispered to him, and that worthy went past Mrs. Ellison straight to Lorraine's side. "You are wearing pearls undeclared Miss." His tone reached Lorraine from far off. Her mother had turned swift ly to the rescue, but already Lorraine had smiled slightly and nodded her pretty head. "Do you wish to see them?" she asked, and, taking off her gloves, she deliberately unclasped her lace collar and reached back for the gold catch that held the necklace in place. The next instant every one in reach was crowding forward for a look at the famous Ravenelli pearls. There they jay. In all their delicate, ravishing loveliness on the palm of the customs omcer. j.ven he was impressed, and hesitated. Then he gave orders. They, followed him to the office and waited. "Jack, you could sava them im plored Mrs. Ellison tearfully. "It'means o mucn ror our darling girl. It is al most her wedding present from the prince, it is worth a king's ransom. Your father would come to our relief I know. Jack." "Do you want me to save them, Lorraine?" asked Jack bending over iier, hjiu i,orraine snook her head. Suddenly the official came toward them with a pleasant smile of relief. There was no duty on the pearls, he explained, returning them, for th rood and simple reason that the pearls were a clever imitation, very, very clever, but an imitation, and worth about $500 at tne outside, ir that. They took the ferry back to the rail road station on the Jersey side. Lor raine was weary and wanted to go straight to Lakewood without stopping in New York, and Mrs. Ellison was oddly quiet. She retired to the cabin and left the two out on deck to talk without demur. And while Jack laid plans for their wedding day a month hence, Lorraine bent over the rail and laughingly let the prince's pearlT slip through her fingers down into the green waters of the Hudson.

"I have had old maidism thrust upon me. I was the eldest daughter, and conse quently always ancient in the eyes of the younger children. I had cares which made me staid, and so I was accused of primness, and now that I am 30 single blessedness is as inevit able as gray hairs and wrinkles." "No woman is old at 30." I told her. "The trouble with you is that you are establishing old-maid millstones. At 2a you said 'I am old:' at 30 'I am older,' and at 40 you will be moaning an nope is gone. Now as a matter of fact, Penelope, there is no age when a woman need settle down and de clare that life holds nothing else for her. Tea and toast and tabby cats have no terrors for the woman of to day. There was a time when to make a pet of a pussy was a confession of spinsterhood, but today some of the most attractive women I know make a display of their affection for felines. The serving of tea and of toast in the aftetrnoons has done away with the bugbear and opprobrium attached to this our peculiarly feminine function, and single women of our time go on independent of criticism and know that no one need be prim, or fussy, or peculiar, unless she so desires." It is always, foolish for a girl to look upon herself as old. I have known young women of 2 0 who begin to settle down. They seemed to lack joyous ness, and so they never were young. And. on the other hand, there are women of 60 who are like girls; they have retained the spirit of youth which is, after all. the thing that counts. I am going to make the suggestion to Penelope that she fight for youth. As a rule I advise thai life should be serene, and when old age comes it should bring its own pleasures. In Penelope's case, however, the cares of a family and the duties of older sis ter have kept her from the girlhood which is her right. Now that she is free from her cares, it is her province to secure for herself some pleasures, and some joy, and some appreciation of the attractiveness which she really possesses. I am not just sure how she can do this, but there is always a way where there is a will, and she will never do it by counting the mile stones along the way to old maidism. It will ont do for the woman who wishes to reform to say, "I did not learn to dance" or "I cannot sing" or "I have no talents." There is no talent which may not be cultivated to some extent in the later life. I know a man who, as a boy, worked hard, and when he made his mony he recognized that he had much need of certain ac complishments in society. He was awkward, and when he tried to dance he knew he was not an acceptable partner. He went, therefore, to a first class dancing master and labored for hours in acquiring the graceful art. He kept at it until he bore himself well and made an impressive appear ance wherever he went. Yet this man was over 40 when he started on his somewhat difficult road to cure his crudeness. Any woman of energy can do things that will shake her out of her prim ways. Many an old maid would seem like a different person after a few lessons in swimming, in dancing, or after association with a class in some vivid interest. Mere intellectual striving is not the remedy. Brains, overcultured, may result in a woman of the blue stocking type. It Is rather charm of manner and grace of body which a woman must seek in her avoidance of primness. Penelope, if she follows my advice, will be younger at 35 than she was at 15, and so may many other old maid who resolves that she will not set up milestones along the way.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBEE 3, 1910. Old Edison Records Exchanged- TOM M'NEAL'S BROTHER. Grandfather Clause May nefeat Him for Governor of Oklahoma. Guthrie, Okla., Oct. 3. Oklahoma nominally is Democratic, the primary vote on August 2, 1910, being 123.000 for the Democrats and 81,000 for the Re publicans. The bugaboo of the Republican parti is the "Grandfather Clause" which threatens to disfranchise 14,000 ignor ant negro Republican voters. Fred P. Branson of Muskogee, who marshalled the "Grandfather Clause" to victory, says that the purpose of the suffrage amendment was not to remove fear o. Republican victory, or even to disfran chise Republican voters, but to "relieve the state of Oklahoma of the obnoxiou s results of wholesale voting of ignorant negroes by unprincipled politicians." The state organization of the Repub lcan party stands for all that is "stand pat." "regular" and the tariff. "Sun ny" Jim Sherman made a trip through the state recently making speeches to bolster up the organization. The Re publicans are fighting primarily to re turn to congress MeGuire, Morgan and Creagor so' as to get as much federal patronage as possible. J. TV. McXeal, born 53 years ago in Ohio, was once a buffalo hunter, but for the last 20 years has been a na tional banker. Since entering the cam paign as the Republican candidate ne has been making three speeches a day to the ruralites denouncing "Haskeil Ism" and charging Cruse with being a Haskell candidate. He is a brother of T. A. McXeal of Topeka. Lee Cruse of Ardmore. born in Ken tucky, and also a national banker, an swering McXeal's charges of being Haskell's candidate says that if he Is elected governor he will be governor and will not represent any private In terests, anU countercharges that Mc Xeal is a tool of the railroads. The Republican party committee are quiet ly raising m"ney to apply for an in junction two or three days before elec tion against making the "Grandfather Clause" operative at this time, in an effort to save what voters they can. CITY FACES DEFICIT. Commissioners Resolve to Transfer $10,000 to Revenue Fund. The city commissioners resolved this morning that $10,000 from the general improvement fund should be transferred to the general revenue fund. Everyone knows what this means. It means that the city is facing a de ficit the deficit that the city com missioners found it necessary to make up in their budget according to their own stories. But according to the stories of those connectMl with the old council and old administration, there is no such thing as a deficit. From the action of the commissioners this morning in trans-fe-ring the money from one fund to another to pay running expenses, the deficit which caused so much trouble a few months ago was simply a deficit of one city fund and not a deficit of the entire treasury WUJj DISCVSS TOPEKA TEAM.

The mandate of the court of appeals of St. Paul in the Kansas guaranty- case was received here today which re moves the last formality in the prog ress of the guaranty law which was interrupted by the temporary injunc tion by Judge Pollock early last spring.

Bryson and according to McCaul his descrip tion tallies with that of the man who gave the name of Leonard at the powder works when he called tor tne explosive. Bryson on his visits to the local office was accompanied by a person giving his name as Morris ana an unidentified companion. McCaul said today that the men im pressed him by their speech and cloth ing as being college bred. Bryson wanted 8 5 per cent dyna mite, saying he would use it to clear his ranch near Auburn of stumps. McCaul said that a few days later Morris came for the order on the works for the explosive telling him at the time that it would be taken away in a launch which belonged to a man named Leonard of Sausalito. McCaul then telephoned to the plant to deliver the order to the launch Peerless. He was later informed that this had been done. McCaul said that the men acted strangely, but he did not consider it unusual that they should be purchas ing dynamite, as they showed con siderable knowledge of explosives. According to McCaul. Bry?on weighs about 190 pounds, is about 30 years old. of sandy complexion, smooth shaven, heavy face and a defect over the right eye. which bore the ap pearance of having been flattened out.

The Smoke House 608 Kansas Avenue HIDE THEIR IDENTITY. Occupants of Motor far Escape Death Xear Topeka. After a narrow escape from death In an overturning automobile which turn ed over twice and fell 23 feet down Calhoun bluffs, four miles north of To peka, about 7:20 o'clock Saturday night, the occupants refuse to revea! their identity. One is thought to be a man named Johnson in the second hand business in Kansas City. The other two are supposed to be ranchmen from western Kansas and Oklahoma, on their way home from Kansas City. Persons in the neighborhood of the accident were told that the occupants escaped from the machine after it had turned over once. Then the car made another turn. It was wrecked. The wind shield, one wheel, fender, springs and body were damaged to the extent of $230, according to L. Davis, an au tomobile man. The machine waa a Buick. Early Sunday momin? the inder garage at 911-S13 North Kansas ave nue, was notified and tne machine hauled there. The mechanics were in structed by the autoists that if any one asked anything about them or the affair, to say that they didn't know. When a State Journal reporter tele phoned the garage and asked the iden tity of the machine owner, he was told: "Johnson, a second hand man from Kansas City." Later, when he in quired at the shop In person the work men denied knowing the man's naiue. The workmen also said that the ma chine was not damaged much and did not fall far. They said that they did not pay enough attention to the auto ists to describe them. At the C. Hummer house on the Grantville road, where the party stoo ped to telephone one of the men, was described as being tall, of a dark com plexion, and having a mustache. He said he was from Oklahoma and that the accident was caused by the car striking a rock. He did not give his name, according to the Hummers. Residents in that vicinity Saturday night heard the automobile pass. After the accident, two men were seen climb ing uninjured up the bank from the overturned machine. It also is stated that they were taken to Topeka In one ot three cars which had foliov ed. This gave rise to a rumor that a man had taken agency in southern Kansas for the Buick company from the Kansas City house and waa taking the cars with him. but this was denied by the Kansas City firm. Near the scene of the accident is the place where George Scott, a Kansas City bartender, was killed last spring. His car fell over the bluffs, killing him. The road is narrow and dangerous to one unacquainted with it. It is pro tected only by a single barb wire fence. Uiulertakers Are Here.

To the Editor of the State Journal: Regarding the present enforcement of the prohibitory law in Topeka. I have noticed in the columns of your paper, for some time past, an ani mated controversy between the county attorney and the mayor of Topeka in volving the county sheriff's force and the city police force; the question at issue being, who is to blame for there not being more convictions of jointists and bootleggers in Topeka. In the first place the time spent in such controversy represents an added ncrease in cost to the common ordin ary citizen who pays the taxes be cause the time spent in such argu ments certainly represents that much less time spent in fulfilling the va rious duties of the office for which they were elected. Thyt there is a large amount of liquid refreshment bought and sold in Topek i is known to all. but such illegal busi ness being carried on In the dark and in the back alleys it is necessarily, in many cases, difficult to produce suf ficient evidence for conviction. I have always felt that it is the duty of the public officials to look after these matters and where such violation of the law did not conflict with my personal rights or with proper protec tion to the rights of our company, did not consider it my duty to interfere. All of the officials in question ar equally, I trust my friends, at least I feel equally friendly to all of them and this letter is not -written with the de sire of criticizing any of the parties in question, but to bring before the readers of your paper a specific case and to call attention of all parties to the con troversy, that they have a chance to prove in short order who is. and who is not properly handling the duties of their respective offices. On Thursday night. September 29. a few of our transient mill laborers pro cured a quantity of whisky, about two quarts in all. Several of them became badly intoxicated, resulting in loss to our company through improper loading of stuff, tearing of sacks, etc. Our first thought was to simply dis charge the offenders and hire new men in their places, but, after considering the matter it was decided to put this case up to the officials and see what they would do with it. The writer ac cordingly notified the mayor, who sent an officer down to the plant immediate ly. To this officer we turned over the names of the parties who had been drinking, the names of the parties who had purchased the liquor and from them he learned where they had pur chased it and from who, in what quan tity, at what hour of what day. Arm ed with this information the jointist in question was arrested and I under stand theyq discovered 18 pint bottles of whisky in his place of business, hid den in a sofa. Now. this is a case in which there is no lack of evidence. It remains to be seen what the result of this case will be. Will thev fail of conviction; will the law breaker be allowed to escape, or will he be convicted and then let out on parole to repeat the offense. It is my private opinion that this gives to all of the parties to the afore said controversy a first rate chance to show their colors and I imagine the readers of your paper will await with great interest the outcome. As regards the men who had been drinking, it will be the policy of our company to allow them to continue their old positions, provided, they fur nish a proper cash bond that shall be subject to forfeiture at the next simi lar offense, our company giving them interest on the money and agreeing to return it to them at any time they should leave our employ, provided they ahve not been under the influence of liquor while on duty in the meantime. We are taking this action for the good of all the men individually, and for the good of their families, as they are not drunkards, but simply allow whisky to get the better of them on rare occasions and we do not feel that because a man has made one or two mistakes he should be considered worthless.

BRUNOSTEINDELCONCERT Will Be Given at Andi tori urn Friday Night. Musical scholars are always pleased to have an opportunity to hear a con cert given by competent artists by a trio composed of violin, cello and piano. This combination of instru ments is best adapted to bringing out the full harmony of, a great musical work of any combination short of a full orchestra. For ths reason, the masterpieces of the world's greatest composers are always arranged for this combination. The Bruno Steindel Trio, which is booked by the Topeka committee for a concert at the Auditorium Friday evening, October 7, is the strongest company of this kind in the country. An eminent and competent critic has said of them: "It is seldom, indeed, that three artists of such conspicu ous and renowned accomplishments are brought together, each displaying a distinct individuality, yet each touched by the fire of genius. Their instruments are never the same to us after we hear them plaved. They be come things of magic, capable of a thousand lights and shades of color of which we never dreamed Mrs. Kretsingcr Dead.

SOLD PAPERS IS WEST Lawrence Lad Now Called Theatrical Buccaneer. Composition in Dispute Was of German trigin. Chicago, Oct. S, Joseph E. Howard, formerly a Lawrence, Kansas bov, and one of the kings of musical comedy is accused of plagiarism in a tale of bold piracy told by C. P. McDonald, music editor of a Chicago show paper. McDonald says that the youth, who as a street arab selling papers in Denver, lifted his voice in song, has become the Captain Kidd of musical comedy through a series of evolutions. Joseph E. Howard, Formerly of Law rence. Accused of Musical Comedy I'lagiarism. In 1905 when Ed Bote and G. Bock music publishers in Berlin, published a composition bearing the name of Vic tor Hollaender, the story began. The publication was duly copyrighted in that year. Two years later Howard's musical comedy "The Girl Question was among the Singer productions at the La Selle theater in Chicago. One of the pronounced hits of Howard's score was "Valtz Me Till I'm Dreamy, published and copyrighted by Charles K.. Harris, who also obtained British rights for the number Julian Mitchell, it is said, while in Europe some time ago, heard the Hol laender melody and entered into ne gotiations for the. American rights. It is declared he paid $1,000 before clos ing the deal with Bote and Bock. When Zeigfeld'a "Follies of 1910 was produced there was. and still is. a song in the scores entitled "Swing me high, swine me low." lyrics by Ballard and music by Victor Hollaender. The music in this sonajis the" sarne as thar which cost Mitchell $1,000 and which in 1905, was copyrighted by Bote and Bock of Berlin. Just what lesra! steps, if any. wjll be taken by Joseph W. Stern Com pany who now control the rights which Mitchell purchased in Berlin, Is not known as yet. i EXPECT 6,000 TEACHERS Entertainment Committee Planning for State Meeting.

Rome. Oct. 3. A firm of English contractors has proposed to rebuild Messina according to plans approved by the government, to clear the streets and negotiate a loan of $120,000,000 to the municipality at 3 per cent. The reconstruction of the city would occupy five years, according to a pro posal referred to the municipal au thorities who rejected it. A representative of the English firm was summoned to Messina and had an interview with influential citizens who informed him that if the firm was willing to pay them they would have the proposal accepted. The agent asked what they wanted. One was willing to accept $20,000 and the other insisted on 2 per cent. The agent returned to Rome and asked the minister of public works whether it was the custom in Sicily to bribe officials. The minister was indignant and the case will be brought before parliament. Meanwhile the two citizens are suing the agent for slander. The Messina ruins remain as on the day following the earthquake. Tulips. Hyacinths. Narcissus.

Western Union 2 and Intermetporoiitan preferred 1. The market was steady with prices a trifle betetr at 11 o'clock. Speculation moved cautiously for an hour under the influence of the low sur plus reserve shown by the weekly bank statement.

Wisconsin Central rose four points. C. and O. 14 and Reading. Louisville and Nashville. Atlantic Coast Line, Northern Pacific and G. N. preferred 1. but other wise only a few stocks were found in a numerous list that had risen 1 to 1 by noon. Bonds were irregular. Heavy purchases of U. S. Steel were made about 70 blocks of a thousand to seventy-five hundred shares changing hands frequently. Union Pacific also was absorbed in a striking manner and the whole list reached a ilugher level. Ameri can Sugar which had lost several points in the forenoon rallied to 1147, which put it 1 above Saturday's close. In active stocksa made a good showing, Chicago and Alton going up 3 points. Erie second preferred, Kansas City Southern and North American 1 and Norfolk and Western 1. Some of the standard stocks went higher. U. S. Steel and V. P. advanced over a point.

Commissioners Tired of Delay on Melan Bridge Extension. Unless the Fidelity and Deposit com pany of Maryland commences work, on the extension of the Melan bridge be fore October 10, the city will relieve them of the job and declare all bonds forfeited. A.

CHANCE REVIEWS 'EM. After Winning Championship of Na tional .League He Recalls Troubles. Cincinnati, Oct. 3. After playing the game which gave the champion- ship of the National league to the j Cub3 Sunday. Manager Frank L. j Chance reviewed his troubles of the t last few weeks. I "I am prouder of the Cubs than I ever have been in my life. They have beaten all records for overcoming ob- i stacles. Never in the history of base ball did a team win out under such a heavy handicap of sickness and in juries, j "Our regular team has been avail- able only at infrequent intervals. But the utility men have more than done j their duty. But for Archer, Zimmer- j man, Kane and Beaumont we would not be celebrating. I am proud of j every one of them and I would not I trade my substitutes for the regulars I on any other club. While the injury j to Johnny Evers is a blow, we have i been receiving similar blows all year j and we can't quit and give up hope of landing the world s championship just because he is out.

The upper classman watched the performance with the relish a man naturally feels when the under-dog gets to the top, for the first time in thirteen years. He sent home an ac count of the fight, along with a poster that is having a run of popularity among the students. Those boys have a set of naughty posters that they seldom allow out of their possession. There are no co-eds in the school, and the students don't send the posters to their girl friends, even when they are urged to do so; though they occasion- Don't Think Coffee The Cause? But to prove what fcecos stomach and heart weak and nervous prostration coming, suppose you try leaving off coffee JO days and use well-made POSTUM If you find peaceful sleep, good digestion, heart and nerves getting stronger, you have the cue. Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville in pfcgs. "There's a Reason" for THIRTY YEARS A Slave to Coffee. Many persons do not realize that coffee-drinking may become a powerful, enslaving habit. They are not all aware that coffee contains a drug caffeine which ought never to be taken into the system ex cept when prescribed by the doctor. The coffee habit grows on most users and is more harmful to some than oth ers. But a drug that acts upon the heart and nerves in the way caffeine does, is not without greater or less harm to all who drink coffee. "For thirty years." writes a Wash ington housewife, "I have been a steady coffee drinker. I wanted it at every meal. "But I would have sick headache most of the day. and often throw up my food. I really suffered awfully from coffee yet thought I never could stop it. "Then I heard how good Postum was for such cases, and began to use it. At first I did not care for Postum. I felt sleepy and had headache. I soon found that this was because of the hold coffee had on me. for in about three days after I quit coffee and began to use Postum the headache left me, had no more nervousness and palpitation. In about a week I felt like a new wo man. "I have used Postum three years and when it is made according to directions (boiled 15 minutes) it is as pleasant as coffee and don't hurt anyone.

I wonder if it's an American trick to talk and judge of things of which one knows particularly nothing, at first hand, or just a human habit as wide as the world. For it may be both, but it's cer tainly the first. We were talking of Oscar Wilde the other day. A young college graduate was of the group. She appeared pain fully shocked. "How can you like his poetry? I think it's dreadful." she said. We asked what she had read of him. She tried to mention something, stammered a bit, mentioned a poem which was really -written by Swin burne, and finally acknowledged that she couldn't really remember what she had read just that moment. "But I always heard that he was a very immoral man, and that his po etry was very improper," she conclud ed, virtuously. Isn't that quite a typical case of this tendency to talk without any basis of personal knowledge? In much the same way, how many people make fun of Ibsen and Brown ing, and tell how involved and unin teresting and unnecessarily abstruse their books are. when thev the crit ics have never really sat down for half an hour and read the writers they are judging.

AFTER OURYEARS OF MISERY Cured by Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound Baltimore, Md. "For four years my life was a misery to me. I suffered irom irregulari ties, terrible drag ging sensations, extreme nervous ness, and that all gone feeling in my stomach. I had given up hope of ever being well when I began to take Lydia E. Pink ham's "Vegetable Compound. Then I felt as though new life had been given me, and I am recommending it to all my friends." Mrs. W. S. Fori, 2207 W. Franklin St., Baltimore, Md. The most successful remedy in this country for the cure of all forms of female complaints is Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound. It has stood the test of years and to-day is more widely and successfully used than any other female remedy. It has cured thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflam mation, ulceration, fibroid tumors, ir regularities, periodic pains, backache, that bearing-down feeling, flatulency, indigestion, and nervous prostration, after all other means had failed. If you are suffering from any of these ailments, don't give up hope until you have given Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound trial. If you would like special advice write to Mrs. Pinkham, Iynn, Mass., for it. She has guided thousands to health, free ot charge. rumors, general impressions, and not specific information stand hehind many of the opinions one hears expressed on public matters. How many people, for instance, rage against Cannon and Aldrich and Payne, and exult at Uncle Joe's downfall, who could not name any specific thing that any of these three men have done. In a general way, they think of these senators as having too much con nection with trusts and monopolies and railroads, but ask for a specific instance of just how these men have betrayed their country's trust, and I doubt if three out of five of the crit ics could give It. How many people who protest against "that terrible tariff bill that makes the cost of living so high," really know any of the specific pro visions of that bill? Now, mind, I'm not trying to defend Cannon or Aldrich or Payne, or the tariff bill. My personal sympathies are most decidedly not in that direction. Be sides, that's politics, and I have been politely, but most emphatically, warn ed that that is a man's province and I must keep oft the grass." All I want to make you realize is how prone many of us are to talk and judge on subjects of which we have little or no first hand knowledge. Have I succeeded?

J 'X-i i i hi i h m t. i.tt, tut i SELLINGJAD MILK More Than One-Third of Topeka Restaurants Are Tabooed. Dr. Babb, City Milk Inspector, Slakes Startling DiscoTery. PliOFIT S00 PER CENT. Some Places Buy Skimmed Milk and Water It. Out of C5 Inspections, 28 Come Under the Average. More than one-third of the' 65 bet ter class restaurants in Topeka sell either watered or skimmed milk ac cording to recent investigations made by Dr. George Babb, city milk inspec tor.. The 28 of these 65 restaurants which do not come up to "the test in milk sales are not only the establish ments on lower Kansas avenue and East Fourth street but right in the heart of the business district, the eat ing places patronized by the higher class people. The city ordinances provide, that milk sold over the counter at a res taurant or hotel must have 12 per cent milk solids and 3.4 per cent fat. The average restaurant in Topeka barely escaped the fat provision. One res taurant had as low as no fat at all. At this place the milk was not only devoid of fat but it was sour and had a big chunk of ice in it. Dr. Babb made a personal investi gation of the milk conditions in the city. He SDent three days in going to the 65 eating places, sitting at the counter or table, ordering a glass of milk and then dumping the contents of his glass in his test tubes and tak ing it to his laboratories at the city hall. He kept an accurate account of each glass sold and made a thorough test of the contents. The percentages were kept on record and the worst places in the city are given in another place in this column. That more than one third of the Topeka eating houses sell diluted milk Is the most sensational feature dug up since the city has sup ported the office of city milk inspec tor. Dr. Babb has been making a specialty of investigating schemes con nected with the selling of milk which do the public injustice. Preparing to Send Warning. Dr. Babb is preparing to send a copy or the city ordinance and a let ter of warning to every restaurant keeper. He will warn them of the fact that a fine of from $3 to $100 is customary in such cases and another discovery of this kind will bring many of them into the police court. The most amazing fact in connec tion with this recent discovery of Dr. Babb is that the restaurant keepers themselves ruin their milk for public use. The milk dealers in Topeka handle the white liquod that goes above an average of 4 per cent. This means that after the restaurants buy their milk they either water it with plain water or chunks of ice or skim it for other uses and give the remainder to the public. "And this isn't all." said Dr. Babb this afternoon. "I have found that a number of the eating places buy skimmed milk and sell It for good. For instance they pay 10 cents a gal Ion for skimmed milk and sell it at 5 cents a glass over the counter. This nets them SO cents a gallon a profit of 800 per cent. And some of them are not satisfied with this profit they put chunks of ice in the glasses." lMuces Worst Near Railroad Stations. Dr. Babb has been planning an in vestigation of this kind for some time and three days last week he completed his work covering practically all of the larger restaurants in the city. He found that the worst places w-ere near the railroad stations a place where strangers to Topeka are given their on ly impression of the city when they purchase milk and it is a ooor one In one instance the Union Pacific hotel cafe sold milk that averaged only 2 per cent. The hotels were not investigated, but Dr. Babb has his eyes on them. He promises a visit to the hostelries some time m the future. The following places tested below the required 3 H per cent fat require ments with their percentages: Rock Island restaurant, 108 Kansas avenue. 2.4; Howard cafe, 114 Kansas avenue, 3.0; Dick Johnson's restaurant, 130 Kansas avenue, 2.9; Topeka cafe: 112 Kansas avenue, 3.0; Shaffer's rest aurant, 216 Kansas avenue, 2.3; Basho hotel. 227 Kansas avenue, 2.1: Elite restaurant. 307 Kansas avenue, .08; Darby's restaurant, 407"A Kansas av& nue, .03; Arcade cafe, 414 Kansas ave nue. 2.5; N.

Tried to Get "Starland" Con tingent lo Walk Out. It became known today that in the matinee performance of "Miss Nobody From Starland" an effort was made by an organization of Topeka stage hand3 to cripple the Grand theater produc tion. Within the last year a pro visional union was established here by a. number of stage hands opposed o the policy of the managemert of the Crawford houses. Traveling with the "Starland" aggre gation there are several stage hands in the employ of the company. It is said that in an effort to cripple the show locally the union appealed to these men to walk out. Not having orders from their superiors in Chicago the travel ing stage hands refused to do so. While the Topekans who compose the union are not now in the employ of the Crawford's most of them have been previously. It is said that the Craw ford's would employ a part of them but that having affiliated with the pro visional organization this is impossi ble. No members of the Topeka union of stage hands are in the employ of the Crawford's in any of their thres houses here. WICHITA EAGLE SUED. Commissioner Stewart Wants $25,000 Damages 1 rom the Taper. Wichita, Kan., Oct. 3 The newest sensation in Wichita furnished by the Eagle, which openly accuses Commis sioner Sam Stewart with graft, working the men in the street department on his private property and paying them with city funds, was ecllsped Saturday afternoon by the preparing of two peti tions by Commissioner Stewart on civil and criminal charges of libel. Stewart will sue Mrs. Victoria Mur dock, proprietress of the Eagle, for $25,000 in civil courts alleging slan der and libel, and the reporter who wrote the Eagle story for $5,000.

The Eagle openly accuses Stewart of getting- rich at the city's expense and prints photographs of two checks to J. D. Trestor, an em ploye in the city street department, claiming that it was pay for work done on Mr. Stewart's residence. In his petition, Stewart claims that he ha.s returned personal checks, show ing where he paid for his private work out of his personal account. The attack on Stewart by the Eagle is supposed to have been precipitated by the printing of testimony- in the Beacon of Stewart before the civil serv ice commission. It was to the effect that Marcellus Murdock. business manager of the Eagle, had been in vited into Stewart's office, drank some whiskey, alleged to have been confis cated, and took some of the whiskey home. MANY MINERS DEAD. Seventy-Two Perished in the Palu Mine Disaster. Monterey, Mex., Oct. 3. Latest news from the coal mine at Palu. where an explosion occurred Friday night, indi cates that the loss of life will probably re n miners, mostly Mexicans and Japanese. Only two bodies have inns far been recovered, because the pres ence of poisonous gase.t. ine torce of the explosion blew down all the timbers in the slope from the sixth lift to the surface, it blew out the mouth of the slope, lifting 20 feet of surface and closing the mine. The ran house was also blown down but the fan and engine were not injured. En trance was made to the .nine through ine second opening but all the ventilat ing currents ana air steppirg being destroyed, it was impossible to pene trate into the mine far enough to reach any of the miners. The first rescue party were overcome and a second party hard to go in and relieve them. I hey were overcome by after damp but were brought to the surface and recovered in a few hours. 1 he work of restoring the air cur rents is proceeding as rapidly as pos sible with all the men that it is safe to work. Two bodies have so far been recovered, and there are about 70 more men in the mine. There is no possibility of the men being recovered alive, as It will be 48 hours more before all the bodies can be reached. The neighbor ing mines have sent all their suDerin- tendents with picked men and all have aided faithfully in the rescue work. The rescue helmets, of which the com pany has a full supply, could not be used as they were so heavy and the space left to crawl through so small that the men could not get through with them on. This mine was the largest producer of the Coahuila Coal company and has been shipping about 18,000 tons of coal per months for years. The cause of the explosion has not yet been determined, but indications are that it was caused by miners smug gling In some common dynamite in stead of using the safety powder fur nished by the company. TWENTY AUTOS BURNED Explosion In a Cincinnati Garage Proves Disastrous. Cincinnati, Oct. 3. An explosion, the shock from which was felt throughout Walnut hills, comprisine a large part of the residence section of this city, -curred Sunday, resulting in a fire that did damage exceeding $40,000.

CANTATA "HOLY CITY" SCORES. Large Attendance and Those Present Are Delighted With Organ. The cantata, "The Holy City," given Sunday evening at the First Christian church was a success in every way. There wa sa large attendance, and the new $10,000 pipe organ was heard to advantage. Those who had not been within the church in some time were delighted with the improvements which have been completed. Cantata soloists were Dora Lovltt, soprano: Mabel Ilidenour, contralto; Glen wood Jones, tenor, and Harry Crow, bass. It. XT TAFT IN NEW YORK. Says Republican Is the Party of J.TOSTCSS. New York, Oct. 3. President Taft. the guest of honor at the banquet of the National Republican league Satur day night, referred to the loss of popular approval of his administra tion, but he urged the party to stand firm because the voters would see their mistake. In concluding his address, he said: "It is possible in such a government as ours to lose deserved popular ap proval through misrepresentation and misunderstanding. But mistakes of this kind are not permanent. Let us constantly remember that if we stick to our principles, if we insist upon ef ficiency in government, if we perform our promises in the future as in the past when opportunity offers, if we stand shoulder to shoulder in the de termination to carry on the work of progress as we have understood it, then because we are an effective and progressive party, because we do know how practically to carry on govern ment, because we have principles by which we propose to stand in the face of victory or defeat, we shall certainly be continued in power." The president also spoke a word in praise of the New York state platform and ticket. He continued: "Our platform promised to revise the tariff immediately and also to re vise it to accord with the difference between the cost of production at homeland abroad. The two promises proved somewhat inconsistent, in that immediate revision conforming to such a plan was impracticable, because the information needed was not at once available: but the inconsistency was met by the provision of a tariff board to report the necesasry facts. "The new tariff commission, for the work of which V million dollars was appropriated, has already completed its preliminary report, and the com mission is now at work in this coun try. "Since the bill passed, nearly every Republican candidate for congress and Republican state platforms generally have declared that hereafter when the tariff shall be revised by Republicans, it shall be revised one schedule at a time, instead of by a general revision of the entire tariff. We have provided the machinery for a further revision on the protective principle when the necessary information has been se cured. "In mv judgment the country will hesitate before intrusting a further re vision of the tariff to the Democratic party on free trade or tariff for reve nue principles. That party has not, within our memory, revised the tariff without creating profound business disturbances and its revision was im mediately repudiated by the country after a short but bitter experience." YOUNG TAFT IN HARVARD President's Eldest Son Takes up Study of Law. Cambridge, Oct. 3. Robert Alphonjo Taft, Yal'e. '10, son of President Taft, has arrived at Harvard to take up the study of law there. "I came here to study," said "Bob" Taft, "and not for athletics or any other side line. I'm here just to work. I did not come to Harvard for the fun of it. I decided that the Harvard law school was better than the Yale law school, and that is why I decided to come Jiere. I do not know as yet where I shall go after I have finished the course. I expect to practice law, but probably not in New York." 4 RUFUS BLODGETT DEAD. Served Six Years in F. S. Senate From New Jersey. Long Beach. N. J., Oct. 3. Rufus Biodgett, former U. S. Senator died at his home here today. He was taken sick about six months ago. Mr. Biod gett was born in New Hampshire 76 years ag-o. He worked at locomotive building in tits native state for a sum ber of years and came to New Jersey about 40 years ago. He served five terms as mayor of Long Branch and was twice elected to the New Jersey house of assembly from Ocean county. He was elected to the U. S. Senate in 1886 and served six years. John Dawson Will Tate Little Part in Campaign. Be Isn't Sulking in His Tent, Oh, No. HAS OTHEK DUTIES Head Over Heels in Rale Tariffs Just Now. Sara Hule Predicts Stubbs Will Lose Rush County. John Dawson, Scotchman, student, or ator, will take little if any part in the fall campaign. The Republican candi date for attorney general had been ex pected to make about as many speeches as Governor Stubbs himself, and he makes some campaign speech, does John Dawson. No, John is not sulking in his tent; he never shirked anything in hW life, and for that matter, he loves to make speeches, enjoys a campaign like a boy at the old fishing hole. But the fact is, John is busy. He is at torney for the railroad board and is row in the middle of a lot of rate cases tefire the interstate commerce com mission. Dawson returned the other day from Chicago w here he had bucked all week against a ton of evidence on rates and tariffs, and took up the matter of the campaign with Governor Stubbs. John w anted to get in the campaign and yet 1 e hesitated to drop his rate cases al this time. After a conference the gov ernor decided that it was more import ant to the general public for John to stay with his rate caai than it was for him make political speeches. So John will talk to the member? tf the interstate commerce commission in stead of to the horny-handed sors of toil. He will still paii't the glories and prosperity of Kansas, but for the bene fit of the learned commissioners in stead of the denizens of the Walnut val ley, and he will call upon the heavens to witness the injustice of ths railroads to a section that has been so favored by providence. John will be missed from the cam paign. A Bannot-kbur.-i will be fought without a Douglas: a foray will be made without a. bagpipe. And John will be happy, too, for he would rather talk to Kansans than to kings. But the freight rates on livestock and grain and glass and canned goods are too high, and it is up to John to whittle them down. The railroads would doubtless prefer to have John lambast the Dem ocrats for the next month. The Dem ocrats are probably well satisfied with the situation as it is. Chairman Dolley, of the state committee, is frowning a deep frown and wondering where he can get a spellbinder t-j take the place of the earnest and silver tongued Scot. As for Hill City, the metropolis of Gra ham county and home of Dawson, it mourns and refuses to be comforted fo her favorite son is serving his country in the useful arts of peace instead of winning fame on the firing line. The ends that John aims at ar; greater, but Hill City pants for material tilings and cannot see it that way. That hope springs eternal in the hu man breast is exemplified in the op timistic interview given out today by that old time Democrat, S. I. Hale of LaCrosse, who says: "Rush county will give Hodges and the entire state and county ticket a larger majority that it gave "William J. Brvan two years ago, and I claim that is something worth considering, espe cially for a short grass county where the Republicans are claiming their strength lies. "Governor Stubbs will not get a Democratic vote in Rush county, and for that matter he will not get a Re publican vote there either, though there are a few voters who class them selves as insurgents who may cast a ballot for him. In my county the sen timent prevails that the insurgent leaders are not sincere and for that reason their, following Is not large and is decreasing every day." Balie "Waggener of Atchison, stand pat Democrat, and a second Ingalls in the gentle art of sarcasm, pays his re spects to Stubbs et al. as follows: "What will Bill White, Stubbs and Bristow do now, since Roosevelt's Saratoga convention? It is conceded that Colonel Roosevelt wrote the plat form, which was adopted. The admin istration of President Taft is en thusiastically endorsed. Under his ad ministration Pinchot was fired and Ballinger retained. At Minneapolis Stubbs said: 'If I were president, I would kick Ballinger out." Colonel Roosevelt now endorses the president. The Bill White-Stubbs-Bristow plat form in Kansas condemns the tariff bi'l and a violation of party pledges. Col onel Roosevelt, at Saratoga, commends the law. and says that the 'Payne tariff law reduced the average rate of all duties 11 per cent.' In drawing the Saratoga platform. Colonel Roosevelt evidently forgot Bill White, Bill Nel son, Bristow and Stubbs, and the fried chicken "salt rising" bread at Stubb's mansion in Lawrence. By the Saratoga platform. Colonel Roosevelt has dump ed in the ditch Stubbs. Bristow. Bill White, and all the Kansas Insurgents. He tolled them all along until he got them all proclaiming that Colonel Roosevelt was the greatest man that ever lived, and then he exposed their asininity by having the Saratoga con vention endorse President Taft. and all he had done, and the Payne tariff as a great work of Republican statesman ship." AMUSEMENTS. In "The Squaw Man," which comes to the Grand on Saturday matinee and night Edwin Milton Royle has writ ten a drama in which the press agent promises much stirring incident. The play tells a story that is full of throb bing interest that often becomes in tense. Its glimpse of English life in the upper circles is followed by a pic ture of ranch life in the west. Its ac tion is spirited, without being over drawn, and generally its lines are meaty, and no where does it become "talk--" or tame. Much of its inci dents are new, and in theme and treatment It is far above many of the latter day successes, so far as moral ity is concerned. The leading role of "The Souaw Man" is suited to Mr. Westfield, and there is every indica tion of the part being one of his great est successes. H. E.

GUILD MUSIC COMPANY 722 Kansas Avenue Topeka, Kansas t iff Miss Olive Vail, who starred in the Chicago production of "The Time, the Place and the Girl," won her way into the hearts of Topekans in "Miss No body from Starland." She cemented the friendship thus gained by singing "The Gingaboo Man," the h't of the bill. Her first visit here was well re ceived though it might have been bet ter had the supporting cast upheld the lead. Good voices and dressy costumes marked the chorus, in a measure bal ancing the scale which weighed and found wanting a number of plays for effect principal of which was the close of the first act in which the entire cast ran through the audience returning to the stage through the side door. Time worn references to local and nearby places or things also cheapened the show. In the second act the audience was taken behind the scenes to a rehearsal of a musical show. Idiotic attempts of untrained and "barnstorming" ac txrs to work their gags upon the di rector were shown.
