Unless an aviator more daring and skillful than Claude Grahame-White can prove his worth today the Gordon Bennett In- FI-E AIKSfflPS SPEEDING PAST GIMXDST.WB IN INTERNATIONAL, AVIATION MEET. f r-f V V f J 5 i 'Ju t I r r f s I 4 1 I !(.t''--J' f ternational speed trophy will pass out of America to rest in English hands. The pick of the French challengers and American defenders are in the hospital and the fastest time for the course is Grahame-White's by a large margin. Brooking of the Wright team lost control of his machine 2 00 feet up and shot to earth whirling end over end at terrific speed. His machine is a total wreck, and the Wrights are out of the contest for good. Le Blanc, the champion of the French team, was tossed from his course in a gust of wind, cut his ma chine in two against a telegraph pole and was hurled to the ground. Both Brookins and Le Blanc were rushed to the field hospital, and a reassuring statement as to their condition was given out by the management.' Latham, in his 100-horsepower An toinette, got such a fright when the wind almost blew him into the crowd that he quit precipitately in the fif teenth round. The tips of his great wings came net ten feet from the heads of the people who lined the turn into the far stretch. As the bucking aeroplane started to ward them a cry of terror went up, men ran and women burrowed down Into the bodies of their automobiles, in which they had been sitting, muffled In furs. Down With a Crash. Brookins banged down in front of the grandstand with a crash that could be hoard a half mil' away. As his biplane shot downward, the tail lifted higher and higher in the air until- finally it swept around in a full half circle and banned bottom up wards on the turf. The crowd feared that Brookins had been pinned under neath his engine, but it was soon seen that the motor had clung to its bed, for the propeller was still churning furiouslv, digging up bits of turf and earth, which flew about the wreck in a shower. Brookins wormed his way out from tinder the collapsed frame work and staggered for about 20 feet, holding his head in his hands as if in terrible pair.. Then he tottered and fell. An automo bile was driven to his side. He was picked up and rushed to the field hos pital. There it was said later that he had no broken bones and so far as can be learned, no internal injuries. Le Blanc has three ugly scratches across his face and on the side of his head, but aside from bruises he is not otherwise injured and is able to hobble about. So grnt was Le Blanc's speed, driven by his 14 cylinder 100 horse pow er motor, that when he struck he not only cut his r'vnes in two. but snapped off the telegraph pole as if it had been fr' tontlir-iek. HXDS A UXOOM FENNY. North Dakota Man W rites to Washing ton to Ask About It. Washington, Oct. 29. From an isolated North Dakota town an in quiring citizen has sought light from the postoffice department concerning a Lincoln penny that has fallen into his hands. In a letter to the postmas ter general the North Dakotan, ignor ant of the thousands of newspaper articles that dealt with the country wide commotion raised last year by the issue of the Lincoln penny with its de signer's initials, "V.

If you know anything about the penny please teTheedepartment will notify him that the cent he enclosed is perfectly good coin of the realm. DOLLEY MAKING A POLL Statistics AVill Be Completed In a Few Days. Satisfactory showing is made in the political poll of the state which has been made by the Republican state committee, according to Chairman J. K Dolley, who today said that the poll would be complete in a few days Ho declared that the eight Republican candidates for congress will be elected and that the house legislature will be safe by a good Republican major- i, r,n tyi .-I n 3 cm a a Will COnilUUB LllCT l-aiiiHah we have begun on questions of fact and knowledge," continued Mr. ToV ley, "and to my knowledge, not a sin gle mis-statement has been made in the Republican campaign. So good is the sentiment for the entire state ticket that there is no possible way for it to fail except by the failure of Re publicans to go to the polls and vote on election day." In conclusion, Mr. Dolley declared that he would abide by the decision of the people as to whether the op position has conducted its campaign along lines similar to that of the Re publicans and said that personally his declaration was that they have not. SHE MUST HAVE SNAKES. Mrs. Ada Packard Just Can't Along Without Them. Get Kewanee, 111., Oct. 29. Believing she would die unless snakes were in her home, Mrs. Ada Packard has re ceived from New York, a boa con strictor 11 feet long to be used as a pet. Mrs. Packard, who claims to have a gift over reptiles, always has had a fondness for serpents and when she failed to rally from a recent surgical operation satisfactorily she became convinced that she would improve if she could get a snake to fondle. A poisonous copperhead was obtain ed three weeks ago and it was be lieved her health immediately was benefited. The snake became chilled, however, and died after which Mrs. Packard became ill again. Her husband objected to the com ing of the serpent but believing it was a ease of life or death with his wife he consented to the order for another. Mrs. Packard declared she noticed great improvement in her health al ready. She had the snake placed in a tub of warm water as the cold weather was feared. Phe says her trift has heen notice able since she was a child. when snakes crawled to her from all direc tions whenever she was in their vicin ity at picnics in the woods. THE COLDEST DAY. Mercury Registered 2S Degrees Tliis Mornius. This was the coldest day. the tem perature this morning was 2S degrees. The wind is blowing 24 miles from the south and it is rapidly warming. Fol sowing are the temperatures. LIQUORjNY.M.C.A. Mayor Billard Says That it Is Drank There. Has Instructed Police to Watch the Institution. OTHER CHARGES TOO. Asserts Three-Fourths of People at Mass Meeting Drink. Stands hy Statements Concern ing Liquor Drinking. Claiming that three-fourths of the people who attended the indignation meeting last night drank liquor, that a large number of those on the plat form violated the prohibitory law, that one of the most bothersome places in the city was the building of the Young Men's Christian association, where neighbors had been bothered with flying empty beer and whisky bottles, and that he had not changed his mind about the effects of the pro hibitory law in Topeka and Kansas, Mayor Billard sat in his office this morning without the least worry in relation to the meeting that was held in the auditorium against his prin ciples last night. "I enjoyed the meeting very much last night," said the mayor. "It was an enthusiastic gathering and I was not surprised at the sentiments ex pressed. I have known always that these people did not see the effects of the prohibitory law 1 nthe same light that I do I realize that thev are not acquainted with the real facts." Then the mayor thought a minute and wheeling in his chair he gave out some facts that will startle the people of the city who have been placing so much faith in the anti-liquor laws. Stands by Statements. "I still insist," said the mayor, "that about 90 per cent of the people of To peka use liquor. It is hard to furnish positive proof of this statement, but I am sure that if my prohibitory friends would take the pains to investigate they would be satisfied that I am right in this statement. "I will say, also, that three-fourths of the people in the audience last night and even of those on the plat form use liquor to some extent and keep it in their homes. Practically ev ery physician in the city violates the prohibitory law every day for medical purposes. Liquor at Y. M. C. A. Then came the mayor's sensational statements concerning the alleged drinking of liquor at the T. M. C. A. Duildlngr. "My prohibitory friends don't realize to what extent liquor is being used, said the mayor. "The other day I got a complaint from a lady living near the Y. M. C. A. building. She said that she would appreciate it if the police could relieve her of a great annoyance she claimed that every night men liv ing in the Y. M. C. A. had thrown beer and whisky bottles down in her yard and that she feared to venture out in the back yard at night because of the falling bottles. She said that such things were common and always had been. She took up the matter with Sec retary Brownell of the Y. M. C. A. and he said that unless she could locate the windows from which the bottles were thrown he could offer no relief he said he would try and find the vio lators if she would designate the room. She says that nothing has been done. I have instructed the police to watch the building. "How is this for prohibition? No Reply to Abuse. "I have nothing to say about the abuses heaped upon me at the Audi torium last night. Such things as the letter from the president of the State Temperance union and the speech of Captain Waters don't deserve notice they remind me of the intolerant spirit of the dark ages of superstition and they remind me that if I had lived at that time I would have been burned at the stake as all intelligent men of those ages were burned. (Continued on Page Four.) BIG SANTAFE LOSS Half Million Dollars' Worth f Cars Destroyed. Fire Starts in the Tepeka Stor age lards. FIGHT IS A HARD ONE. Seven Hundred Cars Burned Be fore Flames Are Checktd. Kegiment of Men Help to Pre vent Spread of Fire. Fanned by a southerly wind a small blaze which started in a box car half a mile below the lower Santa "e shops, probably through the careless ness of some one who had sought shelter from the outside chill, spread until nunareoa oi empties" had gone up in smoke. The damage is variously estimated at from $500,000 to $800,000, and is partially covered by insurance. "It would be impossible to give an estimate as to the property loss," said William Collinson, assistant to the general manager. "There were so many kinds of cars consumed in va rious conditions that it would be hard to know Just how to begin figuring, and then we do not know at this time the exact number of cars which were burned. The average box car when new costs $1,200." No one seems to know at precisely what time the fire began, but by nine o'clock a motley gang of scores of men and boys was on the job of fire fighting. A breastwork of earth was thrown up on the north side of the tracks to prevent the fire from spread ing through a cornfield and endang ering both life and property. The tools used consisted of any man ner of implement which could be had in a hurry. There were farmers, Mexicans, shop men and boys work ing for dear life, and they accomplish ed their purpose. The flames spread rapidly towards the east, and before the line of cars on five tracks could be broken loose from the burning empties they had traveled half a mile. Over 600 Cars Burned. "My estimate vould be," said John Purcell, general manager of the great shops, "that between six and seven hundred cars have burned. Although we do not know definitely, we believe that the fire started through the care lessness of some person or persons who sought shelter 'in one of the cars. We believe that we have a clue." At 10:40 o'clock an engine dashed down the main line with a water tank, and as a gang of several hundred men had already pushed the cara ahead of the flames down the line, the con flagration was checked. For a while it looked as though the fire was almost beyond control. s:nd that it would go at rapid speed through the adjoining corn field; sped along on its course of devastation by a stiff breeze. People Were Excited. There was great excitement among the dwellers in the vicinity, and there was much rejoicing on their part when it was seen that the fire would be prac tically confined to the freight cars. As it was it broke out time after time in the field, but by valiant work was extinguished in each case. W. W. Snead had charge of a large gang of fire fighters, and Gus Miller was one of his assistants. John Pur cell arrived on the scene of action at about 9:45 o'clock, and gave orders to the workers. Although the heat was intense along the main line, Santa Fe passenger train No. 13 was allowed to pass at a slow pace. Hundreds of people from the adjoin ing farming district, and those hailing from Topeka were onlookers. Small boys were there in numbers uncoun table. All that is now left of what was a half mile of cars is the steel frame work and the trucks. No effort was made to put out the flames as the fire spread down the line as no amount of energy would have been of avail. GOT HER OLD RIVALS MEET. Chicago and Minnesota Battle for Football Honors. Conceded That Western Team Is the Superior. BIG GAME IN GOTHAM. Dartmouth and Princeton Are Contending. Haskell Indians Playing St. Louis at E. U. Chicago, Oct. 29. The football treat of the year, the largest affair at Mar shall field for 1910, Is taking place here today when Minnesota university met Chicago university for Its annual battle. Although Minnesota's knowl edge, speed and experience has made them favorites and both sides concede them a victory, the game is an un usual one for spectators. Coach Stagg of Chicago has evolved a number of new plays which have worked well In practice and declares his team In bet ter shape than ever before. Coach Williams and Captain Johnston of Minnesota admitted their confidence but neither was willing to predict a score. Thp coma ai rt a O.OA 1 v ai.ov j ciuu&.

Football practice on a gridiron of rock hard ness has not left the Kansas univer sity team in the best of condition for the game with Washburn college of ropeKa nere tnis anerroon. Several players are suffering from sprains and bruises. Another has the mumps. How ever, Kansas rooters predict that Coach Kennedy s men will win from Washburn by two or three touch downs. New York. Oct. -29. New Yorkers today had their one chance of the sea son to see a big college football game here, in the meeting of Princeton and Dartmouth on the gridiron at the Polo grounds. Dartmouth tied Princeton last year and beat the Tiger team the year pre vious. Kansas City, Oct. 29. The outcome of the football game here today be tween St. Louis university and the Haskell Indians means much to the coaches of the two teams. The grid iron battle today is in reality a con tinuation of old Kansas-Nebraska feud, Johnny Bender, coach of the St. Louis team, is an old Nebraska player. "Bill" Caldwell, who has the conditioning of the Indians in hand, was on the Kan sas team for three years. Last year Bender coached the Haskell team and succeeded in defeating Nebraska, which fact also adds Interest to the contest. Madison, Wis., Oct. 29. Wisconsin and Northwestern university teams will meet on Randall field here this af ternoon for what is expected to be the closest game of the season. The teams appear to be evenly matched and con fident. Both expect to make much use of the forward pass and will depend largely on open field plays. Coach Bar ry declared today the Wisconsin team is 20 per cent stronger than a week ago. Arrangements have been made to ac commodate 6,000 spectators. West Point, Oct. 29.

Mayor Billard Himself Occupm a Front Seat. ADOPT DECLARATION. Asserts That Peopl Are Fay orable to the Law. City Executire Calltd on to Re sign His Office. A crowd of 2,000 people attended th prohibition mass meeting In the Audi torium Friday night. Only when a vote on resolutions was called, did the crowd realize that it was divided In sentiment. The opposition was first manifested during the course of C. K. Holliday's speech. There was a good working majority favoring a recall of Mayor Billard and the adoption of pro hibition resolutions and serious oppo sition was side tracked. Rev. F. L. Loveland and Attorney Captain J. G. Waters produced the greatest enthusiasm in the courses of their speeches. Loveland's talk was especially pleasing to the prohibition element in the house. It remained for Joe Waters to remove the .epidermis from the man who said 90 per cent of Topeka's population use liquor. It was nearly 8:30 before S. H. Allen, as chairman of the meeting, called the gathering to order and the speakers began to express public and private opinions of the town mayor. Mayor Billard had arrived early and he occupied a seat well to the front of the house. At times Mayor Billard laughed; and there were times when his face flushed with anser. He did not Join in the applause or uprisings ana aia not vote. Judge Allen stated his sorrow thnt Topeka's mayor was not a factor In making prohibition a success in the state. Then Allen talked of current issues. "Billard and the distillers have declarations that read Just alike," he declared. C. K. Holliday caused an explosion of Billard sentiment when he told of the situation In Missouri. "Over in Missouri a gallant fight Is being made for state wide prohibition, and ud un til a week ago the chances were more than even that prohibition would win. Utterances made by men in the city of Topeka have been printed broadcast saying that prohibition in Topeka and Kansas is not a success." Here Holli day was interrupted by a cheer for Bil lard which was followed by handclap ping. Billard fidgeted and appeared embarrassed. Holliday did not notice the interruption. "I want to say that sort of thing is hurting prohibition In Missouri and the people of Kansas should set the state right." Hollldav then read the following declaration of principles: Declaration of Principles. We, the citizens of Topeka and Kan sas In mass meeting assembled do here by proclaim: First That there Is not a saloon in existence within the borders of Kan sas. Sficond That the prohibitory law Is as well enforced in Kansas as any other law on our statute books, and far bet ter enforced than any high license law in any other state. Third That the Influence of the pro hibitory law of Kansas is moral and beneficial as Is evidenced by the clean, enterprising and up to date cities of Kansas, which have prospered and are now prospering under the prohibitory law; Fourth That we take It for granted thai no American citizen, whether he is g prohibitionist or moderate drink er, has any regard or love for the sa loon. Hence we realize that the cru cial tests as to the merits of prohibi tion must be: First: Is prohibition best for public morals? Second: Is prohi bition a financial success? Fifth As to prohibition being a great help in the uplift of the morals of the people the answer of Kansas Is: That never, since the Sermon on the Mount has, a doctrine been preached and prac ticed that has been more beneficial to men. and women. Sixth As to prohibition being a fin ancial success, the answer of Kansas is: That the capital stock of prohibition is unlimited and that it is way above par and still soaring that there are 1, 700,000 prohibition stockholders in this state and that the steel trust and all other trusts in the United States com bined are not to be compared with prohibition, when it comes to declaring and disbursing dividends for prohibi tion in Kansas pays a dividend from 10 to 100 per cent every weekly pay day. Therefore we of Kansas proclaim that, as a financial proposition, prohi bition is directly and indirectly the greatest and only safe and- sure great rich scheme In all the world. Seventh We send greetings tonltrht to our Bister state, Missouri, in her gallant struggle for state-wide prohibi tion. But we admonish all rood sourians that if they would be free', they themselves must strike the blow. We also tell them, and all the world, to reject utterly any and all attempts maua uy interested parries, or by whomsoever they may be made, to per suade them that prohibition in Kansas Is riot a good thing. We of Kansas, assembled here In the capital of the state tonight, un hesitatingly and unequivocally an nounce to all Missourians and all the world that prohibition is the best thing that ever happened to Kansas financially, morally and every other way and that all that is necessary to make Missouri blossom and bloom as a rose is the adoption by the people of Missouri of state-wide prohibition at the polls in November next. E. L. Copeland, treasurei of the Santa Fe railway, talked of prohibition from the railroad man's standpoint. He said in part: "Prohibition has done more for th railroad men than any other law on the statute books. I remember in th early days In Kansas history when the liquor traffic cost our road thousands of dollars. Today we do not emploj men who use liquor1 and this Is mads possible only by the prohibition in Kansas. Our men give better servlc when they do not use liquor and the roads have banded together and will employ only men who shun the saloons. ociook 28 11 o'clock 40 8 o clock 31 12 o'clock 51 9 o clock 39 i o'clock 54 fContinued on Page Four.) iu o ciock 44 2 o'clock 56 (Continued on Pago KlffhkJi

A Jolly crowd of Washburn students and Blue tribesmen, about 500 in num ber, left Topeka today on the Santa Fe special for Lawrence for the great battle of the state. Washburn vs. Kan sas university. There is little hope of victory in the college crew but they are confident the gridiron men will fight from first to last and are willing to root just as long whether losing or win ning. The early season promises failed In materializing and gave the Blue a dis couraging setback and the declaring of players ineligible together with severe in juries to others have kept the student body near a Biuefunk. In spite of those things, however, and 5 to 1 money on K. U., the supporters of Washburn re main steadfast and college spirit is at its highest at McCook field today. Kansas is confident, though Kennedy Is telling his players they have a bat tle on. Students from the U. say they have no idea of uncovering their plays but will save their best for Ne braska a week hence. Trouble at Washburn. There was a great deal of excite ment in the Washburn camp and ex tending down town last night, when the rumor went around that there would be no game at Lawrence today between Washburn and Kansas. Such an announcement seems to have been made by Coach Stewart when the col sentative, under pressure, agreed to take the matter up with Professor Mc Clung, spokesman for the K. U. com mittee, and telephoned him. The K.. U. man was out of town so Cardiff laid the facts before Chancellor Frank Strong, who promised to call the board together and decide whether they would overlook the bare technicality. Whether Mcintosh is playing this afternoon Is not known as the board's report was to be delivered when the team reached Lawrence. With McFarland and Mcintosh, both powerful' men. out of the lineup, the weights will dwindle to high school calibre. Mcintosh was expected to fill the hole at tackle left by pulling Mc Intyre out to end. While the faculty board's commit tee on eligibility probably is Justified in their close tab on the men, neither of. these men knew they were lack ing in credit and it would seem they should have some informant before the kickoff. The Missouri valley rules, strangers in the Washburn camp, are responsible for the findings. The com mittee might have taken the trouble to learn such things as entrance re quirements, which were filed a year and two months ago, were deficient before the eve of the battle. The lineup of the tesms, provided the Kansas authorities allow Mcintosh to play under his technical fault, will be at the kickoff: Washburn. Position. Kansas. McCarroll (C.) R. E Price Titus R.

TIGERS ARE VICTORIOUS. Defeat Oklahoma University by Score of 26 to 0. Joplin, Mo., Oct. 29. In a game which was pronounced the best ex hibition of football under the new rules which has been played In the middle west this season, Missouri uni versity defeated Oklahoma university here Friday afternoon. The final score was 26 to 0. At no time was the result in doubt, although the Oklahomans fought stub bornly, forcing the Tigers to earn ev ery foot that was gained. Tne Mis souri line was impenetrable to their opponents and the entire game, with practically no exceptions, was played in. Oklahoma's territory. The game was witnessed by 8,000 persons. Weather conditions were ideal from players' standpoint, al though a stiff north wind caused dis comfort for spectators in the grand stand. No players were injured. Quarterback Hackney starred for the Tigers. He kicked one field goal, made two of Missouri's three touch downs, and kicked -three goals, thus being personally responsible for 18 of the Tigers scores. WIRELESS FOR SUBMARINE. ii-iiiiitj!:!'. "v-V;"', "'i iiiiteiiii T I em mm. 'i "'i k i MM r J. J', if:-'.:. ;'3' TB-' Hartford, Conn., Oct 29. The gub ernatorial situation in Connecticut is an extremely perplexing and compli cated one. On many sides, particular ly in the larger cities, such as New Haven, Bridgeport, Hartford and Wa terbury, the sentiment and opinion seems to be among shrewd politicians, that for the first time In sixteen years Republican supremacy i3 seriously threatened. Charles A Goodwin is the Republican nominee. Judge Simeon E. Baldwin Is the Democratic standard bearer. Mr. Goodwin te a young man, popular In his home olty. Hartford. He was chosen executive secretary by the late Governor George L. Lilley. To many, his nomination uroved a com plete surprise, ror his opponent, Eever ett J. Lake, also of Hartford, was con ceded the nomination in many places, up to the night before the convention. ii3S... T V English Submarine "D 1" Fitted With Wireless. London, Oct. 29. The "D. 1," whinh Is the largest submarine in the world, is the first vessel of its kind to be. f tted with wireless telegraphy. Experi ments .have proved that wireless comm unication can be kept up between ordi nary war vessels and submarines running submerged, the submarines being able not only to receive messages whi le -under water, but to answer them. Thus orders can be conveyed by wirel ess from flag ship to submerged sub marines, or from one submerged subin arine to another. It will be noted that the new "wireless" mast is rather less, than twice the height of the peri scope, which is beside it. The apparat us is submerged as far as the periscope.

At present it does look as though the Democratic ticket, or at least the head of the ticket, had an equal chance of being elected as the Repub lican. It is confidently asserted that could the election have been held a week after the Republican nominations Judge Baldwin would have been swept1 into office. For the first time since Duzen B. Morris of New Haven was elected governor in 1892. the Demo crats have spruced up and are now figuring upon a win for Judge Bald- i win at least. It is acknowledged in all parts of the state that the Socialist candidate, i young Robert Hunter, will poll a big vote. It is figured that he will gain considerable strength from disgruntled Republicans who were LaKe adher ents. At least this is the basis of his strength allowed by the Republicans. It is also calculated that the radical element of the Democratic party will cut Baldwin. On the other hand they claim that the rank and file of the Democratic nartv cannot and will not warm up to Judre Baldwin because of his cool and calm judicial bearing and age.

Finds a Basket Full of Tele grams Awaiting Him. He Thinks the America II Can Be Recovered. New Tork, Oct. 29. Alan R. Haw ley, having won world's champion ship honors in the field of long dis tance ballooning, is looking for fresh lields to conquer. He plans now to go in for aeroplaning. He has no idea of giving up ballooning, which he re gards as about the finest sport in the world, but he recognizes the advent of the aeroplane. "I probably will participate In bal loon races," said Mr. Hawley before leaving for the Belmont Park avia tion meet today, "but I shall also have a look around in the aeroplane game wfter I have a good rest from our ex perience with the America II. What type of plane I will use I cannot say. Much has been done with aeroplanes, but the game is still young." A big basket full of congratulatory telegrams awaited Mr. Hawley and Mr. Post on their arrival here late last night from their triumphant trip in the America II. Along with them was one from Sir "Wilfrid Laurier, the premier of Canada, which said: "Ottawa. Oct. 28. Allen R. Hawley and Augustus Post, Aero Club. New York: You owe me no thanks for the assistance we endeavored to render you. Please accept my heartiest con gratulations on your safe return from a remarkable trip. Wilfrid Laurier." Others were received from Walter Wellman, Count Zeppelin, Carl Fisher of Indianapolis, Edward W. Mix and other notables in the field of aero nautics. The records of the journey of the America II are in the hands of Presi dent Cortlandt Field Bishop of the Aero Club of America. They include a map of the country with a star pencilled upon it. showing the place where the balloon landed, a document signed by Joseph Dominique Quay.commissiary of superior court of the town of Chicou timi. and the barograph of the Journey. The statement of Commissary Quay sets forth that the two balloonists reached the Chateau Sageuenay.of which lie is the proprietor, on October 25, "when we took them for hunters re turning from the woods." He adds that lie looked over their records and could find no flaw. "Besides," he said, "I at test that Messrs. Hawley and Post have done a great deal of walking." The aeronauts are confident that the balloon can be recovered but probably not until a deep snowfall will make possible its removal on sleds. The bal loon is resting on two trees and is un injured. The Aero Club of America has voted to award to Mr. Hawley its special gold medal for distinguished service to the cause of aeronautics. Captain Thomas Baldwin was the first to receive this medal, in recognition of his work in building the first war dirigible balloon, which was purchased by the govern ment. Only four other aeronauts have eceived this honor. perate lowed to live and be cured by rational methods. Hundreds of people who have been scheduled to be upon the operating table have been saved. Many of the former advocates of the knife have sheathed it forever, and as a result their victims live. The follow ing letter was handed us by an ap preciative patient for publication. It reads: "On December 2. I was serious ly ill with female trouble. My phy sician finally told me that pus had formed in the fallopian tubes, and an operation was the only means by which I could be relieved. I hesitated to have the operation done, knowing full well that such operations often times mean death to the poor woman. If not death, her organs of generation are removed, which means barrenness on her part, thus depriving her of the pleasures of motherhood. Rather than undergo an operation, my husband placed me under the treatment of the United Doctors January 4. I was a helpless invalid practically confined to my bed; had to be carried from my room to the doctor's office. The only relief I could obtain was through the use of opiates. Soon after begin ning treatment with the United Dc tors I was so much improved that I could make daily trips without assis tance to their offices for treatment. One of my neighbors said she never expected to see me leave my bed alive, and today words can not ex press my gratitude, for I feel that I owe my life to the United Doctors. (Name and address furnished at the office.) The United Doctors success fully treat chronic diseases of both men and women. They are located at 610 Kansas avenue, Topeka, Kan., and at present are making a snecial offer for a few days of no charge for the treatment until well of any case start ing treatment now except the cost of the medicines used.

STAGE SET ON FIRE. Deaky Lamp Causes Panic at a Hal loween Play. Chicago, Oct. 29. Three hundred women and children ran panic strick en from the First Congregational church of Oak Park when hangings on a temporary stage erected for the pre sentation of a Halloween play caught fire and threatened the destruction of the building. Three men, the only ones in the church, were the heroes of the occa sion. By quick work they succeeded in extinguishing the flames and avert ing a possible disaster. Dorothy Denney, 14-years-old, one of the "performers" who was on the stage when the fire broke out, was painfully burned when she attempted to prevent the spread of the fire. The audience of women and children, fol lowing a luncheon in the church, had gathered to witness the presentation of a play written by Mrs. Milton Den ney to represent Halloween supersti tions, the plot being to scatter the su perstitions by the entrance of "Truth." The stage was decorated with cur tain draperies, corn stalks and autumn leaves, the temporary theater having been arranged In the Sunday school room of the church. The curtain was raised on a weird scene, the chief fig ure being Mrs. Denney in the charac ter of a witch. The group was gathered about a "camp fire" constructed with the aid of an alcohol lamp. The lamp was leaking and the audience hardly had obtained a view. of trie opening scene when flames suddenly shot along the walls and reached the overhanging leaves. The women on the stage pull ed the leaves down but this only help ed to spread the flames. They then ran from the stage and Joined the frightened members of the audience who already were seeking the exits. The three men hurriedly gathered rugs from the floor and with them smothered the flames. Little property damage was done. Stowaway on an Airship. New York. Oct. 29.

Was Conducted by Eight Well Known R. E. Attorneys. Answers Were Given in 5 and 10 Minute Speeches. Chicago, Oct. 29. Presentation of evidence by the shippers who are op posing the proposed advance in freight rates was concluded before the inter state commerce commission with the testimony of Governor W. R. Stubbs of Kansas, who, in characteristic man ner, declared his opposition to an in crease in rates and his belief as a prac tical builder of a railroads that valua tions have been placed at too high a point. His testimony was a sensation after the days of dragging along. In the afternoon he was subjected to a cross examination by eight of the best corporation lawyers of the west for four hours. Judge Horton of the Illinois Central, C. M. Dawes of the Burlington, T. J. Norton of the Santa Fe, William Ellis of the Milwaukee Judge J. B. Payne of the Chicago Alton. J. C. Jeffrey of the Missouri Pa cific and E. M. Heyzer of the North western were among the attorneys who spent the afternoon trying to confuse or intimidate or discredit the Kansas executive. They only succeeded in bringing the governor up to his best form. There were a dozen features to the afternoon session, each equally Im portant ana startling. He IJanghed All the Time. Word had been passed around at the noon hour that the governor would be grilled after dinner. The grilling is yet to come on. Kather he grilled the attorneys and the crowded court room cheered the .governor on. Stubbs laughed good humoredly all the after noon and poured in hot shot while he smiled. Replying to the charge that the Kansas farmers were able to pay the increase asked in freight rates, the governor said: "If the Kansas farms were as badly managed as some of the railroads, if they were as heavily mortgaged and the juggling tricks piayea witn tnem that the railroad properties suffer they would be In the hands of the receiver or the sheriff." The governor quoted facts about the bond issues and dividends and sur pluses of most of the roads and under cross examination called the proposi tion that the roads needed the in crease in order to borrow money ridiculous. And he told why it was so. "If the roads ran their business honestly and decently and sanely, they would have no trouble in harrowing money," the governor declared. They would be offered by the people more money than they could use If they would quit playing with high finance where a few high officials make hun dreds of millions while their road goes into the hands of the receiver and the stockholders hold the sack until the earnings of the road put It back on its feet again. As to Ripley. The governor paid his respects to President Ripley of the Santa Fe as a great railroad president. "We don't agree, that's all. Mr. Ripley works for the railroads and I work for the people of my state. He has no more right to complain of me than I have of him. If we fail to work for our employers we ought to be fired. And so It went all afternoon. Gover nor Stubbs rose to his feet under barbed questions and, leaning forward, always came back full and strong. When ac cused by Norton of the Santa Fe of taking the west into his confidence be fore he came to the hearing, he said: "I talked to two people about it, asked them about it. ana they urged me not to go. They were my wife and daugh ter." The crowd rose to the governor and Norton sawed off the questions. Frank Ryan, Kansas railroad com missioner, testified at the morning ees sion. The governor followed him. Gov ernor Stubbs created the sensation of the hearing when he declared under oath that he would be willing to put up a million dollar bond that he would take the contract to reproduce all main lines of the railroads in Kansas at $25,000 and branch lines at $10,000 a mile and make 10 to 20 million dollars on the deal. Going into details, the governor said that he could reproduce all the main line single track -railroads In his state, including the steel bridges, ballast, buildings, right of way and everything excepting rolling stock and terminals for $25,000 a mile, and would reproduce the branch lines better than the pres ent condition of these lines at $15,000 a mile. Cost of Railroads. The governor gave the coBt of rails, ties, grading, ballast, depots, switches, everything but shops and terminals and general offices, required to care for the business of interstate and transconti nental systems. He had a world of data, which covered everything from the cost of a tie to the particulars of a bond issue. Speaking of his claim that there would be profits of from 10 to 20 millions in such a contract as he had referred to, the governor went on to tell why his estimates were conservative: "Why, in ballasting alone I would be able to make 8 millions on the con tracts. I estimated $4,000 a mile for ballast when the average cost of ballast Is $1 a yard, according to the sworn testimony of the late General Manager Hurley of the Santa Fe, when he was on the stand in the interstate hearing at Topeka In 1907. Now. the average amount of ballast required is less than 2,500 yards to the mile, which would give a profit of more than $1,000 a mile on the ba'llast alone. "There would be at least $1,000 a mile profit in bridges, buildings, right of way, etc., which I estimated at $6, 000 in my table. There should be a profit of $500 to $1,000 a mile In grad ing, which will Indicate that my esti mates on actual cost of construction were liberal in every detail of the work." The governor referred again to tes timony of the late general manager of the Santa Fe, who had said that 20 and 30 cents a yard was the price paid for grading. The governor estimated the grading at 14 cents. Life of a Tie. The governor estimated the life of a tie at ten years and figured that the ties of the Kansas roads were half worn on an average. He had figured from data furnished by the roads themselves that the average weight of rails used by the roads in Kansas was 65 pounds. He had the facts relating to bond issues, dividends, tax assess ments, etc.. In fact, the governor was j loaded for bear. He had worked for a week In preparing himself to testify In this case, and had used all the ma chinery of the state to help get the facts. His table of the estimated cost of building railroads in Kansas was submitted to the commission and is a remarkable document. In his testimony Governor Stubbs made the following sensational state ment regarding the actual cash in vestment of the railroad companies in their lines in Kansas: More than eight million acres of Kansas land was given to the railroads running through that state. This is one-sixth of all the land In Kansas. In addition to this enormous grants of cash, together with twenty-five million dollars in bonds, and also right of way and terminal grounds were furnished free to the roads by the public in many cases. Train Capacity Doubled. "The railroads are clamoring for in creased freight rates when it is a fact that the number of cars hauled In each freight trains have been more than doubled within the past fifteen years and the number of tons hauled in each car have been doubled on an average. This means the same train crew and engine today would haul al most 300 per cent more tons with very little additional expense than was hauled by the same crew fifteen years ago, and yet our freight rates axe practically the same as thev were fif teen years ago and the roads want to Increase them." Governor Stubbs believed In concen trating the efforts of the public in this cause on one road at a time instead of scattering his shot over the landscape. In the course of the hearing he told of Santa Fe earnings and capital stock and advanced the proposition that the prosperity of the road was the best ar gument against the justice of the in crease in freight rates asked for in the following statement: "The Santa Fe railroad furnishes a good illustration of the preposterous demands of the railroads of the coun try for Increased freight rates. Presi dent Ripley of that road recently said over his own signature that the value of the Santa Fe property exceeds the entire par value of all its outstanding stock and bonds. President Ripley also said at the same time that the market value of railroad stocks and bonds In most cases closely approxi mates the real value of the property. "Fifteen years ago the market value of Santa Fe common stock was less than 10 cents on the dollar, and its preferred stock and bonds were selling at far be low par. The increase in the value of these securities in the past fifteen years approximates 150 million dollars, or nearly 10 million dollars annually. 150 Millions in Betterment. "If this enormous amount of money represented by the increase In value of Santa Fe stocks and bonds actually has been invested in Santa Fe property, as Mr. Ripley asserts, and that property is really worth more than the par value of these stocks and bonds today, then this 150 millions must have been taken from Santa Fe earnings and used for better ments and improvements from year to year. "Taking Into consideration this tre mendous increase in value of Santa Fe stocks and bonds, together with 30 mil lion dollars of other assets and 20 million surplus on hand June 30, 1910, and add to these the regular interest payment on bonds and dividends on stocks that have been paid, and these all go to prove that this road is in such prosperous condition that any demand it may make for In creased freight rates not only cannot be Justified by the facts, but is ridiculous and preposterous on its face." JEWELER IS FINED. Frank Swearlngen Is Found Guilty of Assault, Frank Swearlngen, the Jeweler, and his wife were fined $50 and $5, re spectively, In the city court last even ing by Judge Simon, who found them guilty as charged on a complaint by Mrs. Clara Mills that the two had as saulted and bitten her. Mrs. Mills' husband had bought her an opal ring at the Swearlngen store He had also done some mechanical work on Swearlngen's automobile. The Jeweler sent Mills a check in payment for his work and then stopped pay ment on it at the bank, claiming he was afraid Mills would not pay for the ring. It was when Mrs. Mills came into the Jewelry shop with the check her husband had given her and took issue with the signer for stopping it that the trouble began. It was claimed by Swearlngen that when he refused to pay the amount of the check, Mrs. Mills grabbed a ring case with con tents for security. Simon Judged the case on the supposition that the Jew eler and his wife took bodily liberties in regaining possession of the rings. The jewelers gave appeal bonds of $200 and $100 each for trial in the dis trict court. MRS. SULLY WINS SUIT. Wife of Former Kansan WW Not Have to Pay Jeweler. New York, Oct. 29. Mrs. Emma F.

Oregon's, gubernatorial campaign has been for- mally opened by Jay Bowerman, the Republican nominee, in the western j part of the state, and Oswald West. the Democratic candidate, in the ex-1 treme east. From the beginning each candidate will work across the state to close his campaign in Multnomah county and Portland the last week be fore the election. Jay Bowerman, Republican Candi date. It promises to be a hard fought campaign, with the chances about even. The great pre-primary issue was assembly or anti-assembly. Bow erman was the assembly nominee aligned with that faction which con tended that a convention for the rec ommendation of candidates would be an aid to the primary law. The oppos ing faction of the Republican party contended that the assembly idea meant a return to old convention con ditions, the overturning of the "state ment No. 1" system of popular election of United States senators, hostility to the primary law, the initiative and referendum and popular legislation generally. The anti-assembly forces were successful generally, though Bowerman won nis nomination be cause of a divided opposition, having three candidates opposing him. Oswald West, Democratic Nominee. West has taken up this fight against the assembly and assembly methods. He is receiving the support of a great number of Republicans who feel that the principle advocated by the anti assembly forces Is superior to the call of party. Since the state is three to one anti-assembly. West's chances for election are lairly bright. Bowerman and West, the opposing candidates, are opposite types. Both were raised as boys at Salem. Bower man as a young man lived on a, farm and worked his way through school and college, graduating from the Wil lamette University Law school through his own eltort. West Is the son of a stockman, re ceived his education in the public schools, and was taken into the pioneer bank of A. Bush because of his bright ness and aptitude as. a boy. Both have made good records. Bowerman as a state senator and president of that body. West as a member or tne state railroad com mission. Both are adept politicians, Bowerman of the old school of organi zation and party control, while West plays the game like a chessmaster, cool, calculating, and ready to take advantage of every opportunity to checkmate his foe. Because of the fighting qualities of the two men, as well as of the peculiar conditions in the state, the governorship will be in doubt, according to current political belief, until all of the votes have been counpted in November. DUE TO TIGHT MONEY. Reactionary Tendency In Stocks Has Characterized the Week. New Tork. Oct. 29. A reactionary ten dency In stocks this week was due to the constriction of money supplies in all money markets, which emphasized the disposition to speculative realizing on earlier purchases. Operations to contest the reaction between organized party ln terspeculation centered in United States SteeL The quarterly report of net earn ings coupled with the promise of early resumption of railroad buying of ma terials was cited as security for the sta bility of the dividend. The Union Pacific annual report and the Consolidated Gas dividend increase were fortifying factors. The fall in British consols to 78, the lowest price In over 70 years, was the outgrowth of money market conditions. Chnrchless Towns.

4 THH TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 29, 1910. TO HELP FRIENDSHIP. President-Elect of Argentina Will Do Country Good. Washington. Oct. 29. "When President-elect of Argentina Dr. R. S. Pena takes his oath of office and assumes the duties devolving upon him it is thought a great step forward will have teen taken toward a closer co-operation between the United States and this immense sister republic. Dr. Pena is quoted as saying: "I have the kind liest feeling for the United States and will work not only to continue th present amicable and inter-commerclal relations, but will strive to accentuate them." J" 1 I Dr. Rooue Saeni Pena. Because of the growing relations be tween Argentina and the United States the personnel of the United States le gation in Buenos Ayres has been con siderably increased. When Mr. Sber rlll was first appointed there was but cue diplomatic officer in the legation, and now, including his two private sec retaries, there are six. Two American companies profited by a million and a fralf doilars' worth of business on one contract, reported under date of Sep tember 13, in receiving an award for the building of railway cars. United States firms have bids in for an order of 20,000 000 meters, each meter equal to 39 37-100 inches of zinc sheets. These are for use as barriers in fighting the invasion of locusts. Dr. Pena is one of the strong men of the South American continent. He ih a natural leader, broad-minded and capable. IT CUTS BOTH WAYS. Root Says Republican Defeat Will Damage Each Faction. New York, Oct. 29. "If Mr. Taft con tinues to make as good a president as he is making now he will be the natural and inevitable candidate of his party in 1912. unless one thing happens that the people of the United States shall re pudiate the administration of Mr. Taft by such a crushing and overwhelming defeat of his party that it will be ap parent that Mr. Taft cannot be reelect ed." This was the statement made by Uni ted States Senator Elihu Root In a speech at Manhattan casino. It had Ibeen hinted that he would say some thing about questions of the Republi can party's national policy involved in the New York state campaign. Mr. Root addressed himself particu larly to those Republicans who might stand willing to vote against the Re publican gubernatorial candidate for th sake of rebuking Theodore Roose velt, and declared that Republican de feat in the state this fan would be even more of a blow to the national admin istration than to Colonel Roosevelt. In fact, lie said, a Democratic victory in New York would more likely turn the next national convention away from a national administration which could not hold its party together and toward Mr Roosevelt or "to one of the far more radical leaders now looming up on the political horizon, in the north and mid dle west." Contrary to some expectation, Sena tor Root brought no direct pledge from Colonel Roosevelt regarding his attitude toward the nomination in 1912. Roosevelt the Issue. "A good many Republicans at this time," said Senator Root, "seem dis posed to ignore all the grave and sub stantial issues which are before the people of this state and to vote at the coming election upon no issue whatever but simply as an expression of feeling against Mr. Roosevelt, whose course re garding national affairs they disapprove for one reason or another and whom they desire to punish by defeating the party to which they belong, in which they believe, and which they have long loyally supported, because he holds a "distinguished and potent place in the councils and activities of the party. "It should be observed that the de-J claration of this intention cuts both ways. Whatever a man declares he will vote against the Republican ticket, because he does not like Roosevelt, there will be others who will vote for the ticket because they do like Roose velt and because they feel that with Ihls tremendous force and courage and ability he has done a noble and much needed work for honesty, purity, equal ity and freedom in the political life of our country. My guess would be that if the issue in this state were whether Mr. Roosevelt had reflected credit and honor to the Republican party, on our state and on our country, or the con trary, there would be a very large ma jority in the affirmative. "What gave Mr. Roosevelt the leader ship of the Saratoga convention? He had no office; he had no patronage; he had no money; he could neither punish nor reward anyone; and the controlling political organization of the Republican party was against him. How did it hap pen that a majority of the delegates voted with him and against the organi zation? The answer is that there was an Issue before the convention in which the people of the state we're deeply in terested. Mr. Roosevelt espoused the right side of that issue against the Re publican organization, and naturally enough, he furnished the element of leadership to the side he was with. A Kiajority of the delegates voted with 7 hi him because upon that issue the people who elected them were with him. The issue was a revolt against the tyranny of the party machines and party ma chinery. It was a part of that great rebellion which has been going on all over the Union." LIQUOR IN Y. M. C. A. Continued from Page One. "Such abuses as brought forth last night drop off my head like water slides from the back of a duck. They hurt me about as much as the abuses of the Topeka morning paper in the last campaign that means mighty lit tle. "I was'imused at the remarks of my friend and brother. Charles Holliday. I want to compliment him on the suc cess of his maiden speech on prohibi tion. Considering the bad subject and being his first attempt at such work of this kind I think he did remarkably well. Voted for Prohibition. "I don't believe the people of the city have taken the proper means to brine the DroDer results in this pro- 1 hibitlon question. I am In favor of temperance and morality and against the excessive use of intoxicating li quor. Thirty years ago I voted for the prohibitory amendment with the hopes that it would correct the evils of liquor traffic, but unlike the speeches made last night, I find the results entirely unsatisfactory. All I heard last night did not make me change my mind relating to prohibi tion. I have not said one-hair or wnat could be said on this question. "While I am opposed to the law, I am an officer of the law and I have enforced it honestly and to the best of my ability, and I shall continue to do so as long as I hold the office of mayor. The police are using all means to enforce the law. I will ad mit we are not hiring spotters to get evidence I don't believe in hiring people to break the law in order to get others who are doing the same thing. I wouldn't ask a man to do a thing that I would not do myself." President Bowie Explains. David Bowie, president of the Cen tral Y. M. C. A. said when told of the Billard charges: "It has been called to my attention that a whisky bottle was thrown out of one of the windows of the Toung Men's Christian association building one night recently; that it fell on the sidewalk in a neighboring yard break ing and causing some disturbance. Up on investigating the matter I find that this bottle was carried into the build ing empty and by one of the boys placed in a companion's room simply as a prank. The bottle was again placed in another room and. after wards found its way into one of the boys' beds. This young man wishing to get rid o fthe bottle took the hand iest method that he could think of to dispose of it with the foregoing re sult. "I might say that It Is against the rules of the association for any mem ber to carry -with him into the build ing any intoxicating liquor." PIPE ORGAN DEDICATED. Dean Whitehonse Gives Delightful Concert at Baptist Church. Packed to full capacity, was the First Baptist church Friday night on the oc casion of the installation recital In connection with the new $4,500 pipe organ, the gift of John R. Mulvane, in memory of his first wife, Mrs. Harriet Newell Mulvane, who was herself a tireless worker in the church. Dean Horace Whitehouse of Wash burn college was the organist, and those present were agreed that the re cital was one of the finest events of the kind ever given in Topeka. The program was a difficult one, but Dean Whitehouse handled the numbers in a masterful manner, much to the de light of the audience. Preceding the musical program Robert Stone delivered a short mem orial address, in the course of which he told of the efforts of Mrs. Mulvane to make life more happy for other peo pie, and of her arduous work in the church. "How much richer a memorial to her in this organ, which will serve as a constant benediction and. inspiration to her friends, than would be a gran ite stone, which could do nothing more than proclaim her name," said Mr. Stone. The program included Handel's Largo, a number by Bach, Fantasie and Fugue D minor, the first move ment Symphony No. 5 by Widor and Symphony No. 8 by the same com poser, Canon in B minor by Schumann, Chorale in B minor by Frank, Sonata in D minor by Gullmant and Suite Gothique by Poellmann. The tones of the organ are wonder fully sweet, and the church is to be congratulated upon having one of the finest instruments in the city. HE MAKES A PROMISE. Colonel Says He Will Go Home and Stay There, After Election. Rochester, N. Y., Oct. 29. Six pep pery speeches, two apiece for Rome, Lyons and Rochester, made up ex President Roosevelt's day's work for the Republican state ticket Friday. He kept up his attacks on the Democratic party, Tammany hall and John A. Dix, Democratic nominee for governor. He confined himself to the arguments which he has been making on his trip through the state, developing no new lines of attack. The colonel referred once more, at Lyons, to what Job Hedges, of New York, calls "this king business" in his campaign speeches. He said that he was not the Issue; that it was Mr. Stimson and not he, who was running for office. "I'm not running for anything." he continued. "After election day I'll go home to Oyster Bay and I'm going to stay there. I won't menace any body who does not menace me." In speaking at Convention hall here last night. Col. Roosevelt denied with' spirit that Rooseveltism was a men ace to business. "Any man that says that I am against business might Just as well say that I atack Abraham Lincoln when I attack dishonest politicians." Harvest Home Festival. At the Harvest Home festival ser vice at Grace Cathedral on Sunday next, both morning and evening, there will be an unusual display of field products. While the state fair was on. Dean Kaye purchased the whole Anderson county exhibit containing over 60 varieties of grains and grasses and In addition there will be a fine ex hibit of fruits, flowers and vegetables. If you are a buyer of the finest flowers, try Hayes". of DOWN AND OUT. (no BJ mojj penarwoo) Up to Hamilton and Drexel. With Brookins and Le Blanc out of the race America must depend on Hamilton and Drexel. Hamilton drives a 50 horse power Bleriot. Hamilton Is, therefore the only machine of power equal to those against which the short ened American team must compete. Le Blanc's 100 horse power Bleriot is a thing of fragments, but Grahame White, in a similar machine, cut out a pace this morning that will be hard to beat. Neither Hamilton or Drexel came out this morning but at noon Drexel signi fied his Intention of trying his luck later against the wind, that was then blowing 20 miles an hour. Radley, of the British team, whe has not yet come out, also has a very fast Bleriot, al though it is of only 60 horse power and is an adroit and daring driver, but he will wait ,in view of his lower horse power, for the best wind he can get. The race must be won or lost today. The summaries thus far follow: Grahame-White 20 laps, the full dis tance of 100 kilometers. Elapsed time 1 hour 1 minute 43-5 seconds. Le Blanc 19 laps, 62 minutes 49 S-B seconds. Ogilvie (Wright) 20 laps, two hours minutes 36 3-5 seconds. Latham Antoinettes 16 laps, 50 min utes 34 4-5 seconds. Undismayed by the accident to their teammate, Brookins, Hoxsey and Johnstone of the Wright camp, took the air near 2 o clock in another of their daily duels for altitude. Hoxsey was up first at 1:55 and Johnstone followed him fifteen minutes later. The wind was still blowing 20 miles an hour and they had difficulty in making headway against it. Start of the Race. Belmont Park, Oct. 29. The Inter national race for the Gordon Bennett cup was started on the aviation field here this morning, Claude Grahame Whlte, the English aviator being the first of the competitors to get away. White crossed the starting line at 8:39:42. He flew at the level of about 100 feet and was making a mile a min ute as he crossed the mark. The rules provide that starts may be made at any time after 8:30 o'clock, an aviator once starting not being al lowed to descend for another try. Con testants must finish before 6:80 p. m. Each contestant must fly 20 laps over the long course, a total of 62.1 miles. Only one start is allowed providing the aviator crosses tne starting line. me fc,nurants. American team Walter Brookins, 60-70 horsepower Wright; Charles K. r toman J. Armstrong Drexel, 0 horse- power Bleriot. Substitutes: Mars, Moisant and Hoxsey. England Claude Grahame-White, 50 horsepower Bleriot; James Radley, 50 horsepower Bleriot; Alexander Ogilvie, 4-cylinder Wright racer. France Alfred Le Blanc, 10 horse power or 60 horsepower Bleriot; Hu bert Latham, 100 horsepower Antoin ette. White made his first round In 3:15.64. His greatest speed was in front of the stand, over which he was drifted by the northwest wind. He kept going up to avoid the dangerous gusts and passed on his second round in 6:24.18. Le Blanc lost control of his machine at the southeast corner of the course and his aeroplane ran into a telegraph pole. The pole was cut in two and the machine was completely wrecked. Le Blanc sustained slight cuts on his face, but his injuries are not rerlous. Le Blano Makes Fast Time. Le Blano decided to use his 1,000 horse power Bleriot racer and after a trial around the course at hair raising speed started officially and made the fast time of 2:45:63 on his first round. His rate of speed was calculated at 70 miles an hour, a new world's record. When White had finished his seventh lap his time was taken 22:02:86. Both aviators drifted over the stand as they made their west turns. The wind velocity at-this stage of the race was given as from 10 to 15 miles an hour, Alexander Ogilvie, one of the English team, was the third contestant to start. He drove a four cylinder Wright biplane and made his first round in 3:21:62 and his second in 7:6:44. Grahame-White finished in the elapsed time of one hour one minute and four and three one hundredths sec onds. White made extra laps so as to provide for penalties which might have been imposed during his ride. White covered half the course in 31:19.48. He passed his thirteenth lap in 40:21.57, his average time up to that point being a mile a minute. He turn ed his fifteenth lap in 46:15.22 and his sixteenth in 49:11.04. Le Blanc finished his eighth lap in 22:21.58 slower time than that made by White. The French aviator, however, began to cut his corners better and was sail ing close to a world's record. He pass ed his ninth lap in 25:01 and continued to make fast time, passing his 18th lap in 50:04.01. When Le Blanc was on the 19th lap he met with an accident that put him out of the race. Losing control he ran into a telegraph pole and his machine was wrecked. Le Blanc was taken to a hospital but his hurts were confined to slight cuts on the face. Le Blanc's fast time, it is thought Dy many, wouia have won him the Gordon-Bennett trophy. His time for the 19th lap was 52:49.71. Ogilvie, the second member of the English team to start was early out of the race. Reason for his descent was not at once apparent. Latham dipped and almost went into the club house on his 15th lap. He sav ed himself by wonderful skill and pass ing the start, turned from the. course and went to bis hangar. Pickpockets Are Busy. New York. Oct. 29. A squad of New York detectives was -sent to Belmont park today to scrutinize the aviation meet crowd for the faces of some famil iar crooks who are suspected of having designs for extensive operations among the fashionables gathered there. The presence of clever thieves was called suddenly to the attention of the auth orities by the announcement today that $20,000 worth of Jewelry disappeared at the meet on Wednesday from the hand bag of Mrs. George A. Huhn, Jr., wife of a well known Broadway banker. A reward of $500 for the recovery of the jewelry was offered. Mrs. Huhn de scribed the manner in which she lost it as follows:. "I was late In leaving my home and did not have time to put away a lot of jewelry which I had taken from a safe in order to pick out just what I wanted. It was such a nuisance to bother with the combination to replace the gems in the safe that I just wrap ped it all in a handkerchief and put the handkerchief in my handbag. "The presence of the Jewels did not recur to me again until I was nearly to New York on my return. Then t looked down and found my handbag half open and the handkerchief contain ing the jewels gone. The contents of the handkerchief included a valuable ring-shaped brooch, with two pearl pendants, a $3,000 pearl disk on a chain, four bracelets and some pins." The New York detectives who were at once put on the case learned some time ago they said, of the presence at the meet of a notorious handbag crook. HE HAD A CLOSE CALL. Ralph Johnstone Tells of His Perilous Descent From Aloft. New York. Oct. 29. The crowd t Belmont Park was all for Ralph John stone, when from Middle Island vil lage. Long Island, 55 miles off the course, he brought back a new American record of 8,471 feet for al titude the second he has added to his string in the international avia tion meet. Just before the passenger-carrying cross-country race was started at 4 o clock Friday afternoon, a mote in the paling skv was seen far to th southeast. It was Johnstone, re-an- pearlng just where he had vanished in Thursday's gale. He circled the field and settled in front of th judges' stand, while the crowd waved, cheered and stamped. "Tell you what, boys," Johnstone said when he landed, "it was Just the mercy of Providence that I saved my neck. When I thought I was within touching distance of the new world's record, i kind of forgot all about the wind and began to reach out for more height. Then I suddenly said to my self, 'Young man, you better see how mucn gas you have got.' It's the truth, I had just enough to turn over the two propellers. When I kept her nose up the Juice ran down into the en trine and she coughed. The minute I point ed down I lost my fuel and she began to miss. "It was Just like shooting the chutes. First I'd take a header, with the power off, and when the wind be gan to carry me out of control I'd point up a bit, get a little headway, run level for a hundred yards, then dip again. "I was not much scared till I got down to earth and saw what a gale there was. Then I was frightened for fair. The only spot I could find to land In was a little patch not three times bigger across than the stretch of my wings from tip to tip. "While I was tossing pennies with myself the wind turned me clean around and landed me front end back wards, but that was Just what saved me. "If I'd come down head first the wind would have picked me up, tipped me over and smashed me to pieces." WHERE WAS MRS.M0SES? ijf She Had Been on Sinai Things Slight Have Been Different.

Editor of North American Is Held on Libel Charge. Philadelphia, Oct. 29. On a charge of criminally "libelling Congressman J. K. Tener, the Republican candidate for governor. E. A. Van Valkenberg, edi tor and publisher of the North Ameri can of this city, was held in $5,000 ball after a three hour hearing before Magistrate William Galagher. The cause of Mr. Tener's action in prose cuting Mr. Van Valkenberg is contain ed in a daily attack in the North Amer ican since October 13 against the in tegrity of the Republican candidate. Mr. Tener today denied every allega tion made in the newspaper affecting his integrity as a business man. He admitted being president of a company interested in public utilities for several months and said he had returned the $50,000 stock gift because he had not earned it.

PROVISIONS STEADY. Light Receipts of Cattle at Chicago and Kansas City. Good Bun of Hogs at Slightly Advanced Quotation. Chicago, Oct. 29. WHEAT Commission houses selling was considerable in the ag gregate and bore down the rrolce of wheat today. Most of the prpofessional element was again on the bear side and taking the ground that there was little in the news either foreign or domestic, to encourage buyers.

G. WATERS PRESIDENT. Dean of Shawnee County Bar Its Chief Officer. A revision of the divorce laws of the state was heartily recommended for consideration of the lagislature by the Shawnee Bar association today. In speaking of that problem, Secretary Otis Allen read statistics from the court records which included the fact that in the past year 200 divorces have been granted in Shawnee county, while only 600 marriage licenses have been issued by the probate Judge. Officers elected for the ensuing year were: Joseph G. Waters, president;. Charles F. Spencer, first vice presi dent; Edwin L. O'Neil. second vice president; Otis Allen, secretary and treasurer. The Reed Memorial. A committee of five appointed to draw up resolutions on the death of Joseph Reed, whose recent death marked the passing of one of the asso ciation's oldest and best known mem bers, consisted of Otis E. Hungate, W. R. Hazen. L. S. Ferry, D. C. Tillotson and George H. "Whltcomb. The clos ing summary of their tribute contains a pointed description of the man and his character, as follows: "He was strictly honest. He did not have the best paylng practice at the bar; he didn't always represent the best class of clients; he was a trifle rough in his dress and manner, but there never was and is not now a member of this bar whose word to the court or a brother lawyer is more sa cred. If he told you he would do a thing and the time came to do it, whatever the consequences, be never went back on his word and he ex pected his brother lawyer to treat him in the same way, and if he did not, Joe never kept the matter a secret. He was never technical in construing his promise, but carried it out in tne sDirit in which it was meant and in which he gave it. As he was honest himself, he despised all shams, and openly revllea tne people no consid ered hypocrites and pretenders. He often referred to the lawyers as bar risters and his estimation of their ability was expressed by the syllable upon which he placed the emphasis. He was a srood friend and an open. courageous enemy. He never forgot a favor or forgave a slight. Warm hearted and able, big In body and jovial in disposition, he lived the life he pleased and to him, we believe, came the kind of death he desired. His bulky figure and heirty laugh will be greatly missed at this bar, and long remembered by the lawyers who knew, enjoyed and respected him." POPULATION OP 1,700,000,000. Half the Human Race to Occupy the United States. Bay City, Mich., Oct. 29. Speaking before the convention of the Michigan State Teachers' association. Rev.

A vigorous attack upon conditions in Chicago that have resulted in maltreatment of immi grants and a severe arraignment of the police were features of an address made last night by Professor Graham Taylor of this city before members of the Congregational Brotherhood of Chicago. According to Professor Taylor, the "pulling and hauling" of immigrants by expressmen at the Dearborn street sta tion is one of "Chicago's shames." Women immigrants, he said, are made easy prey for agents of disorderly places and statistics that have heen compiled, he declared, show that in some instances only one-half of the women immigrants who leave Ellis Island, New York, for Chicago reach their destination in this city.

ADOPTS OREGON PLAN. Arizona Convention Decides on Initia tive and Referendum. Phoenix, Oct. 29. After more than two weeks' deliberation the legislative committee reported the initative and referendum proposition to the consti tional convention today leaving the per centages to be decided by the conven tion. The form reported differs in no important respect from the Oregon plan and makes direct legislation ap plicable to cities, towns and counties, as well as the state. The executive committee was ex pected to report the recall proposition later, but like the direct legislation it will go to the printer before the debate is begun. The proposition provides for the recall of any public officer. A stir ring debate is I bers oppose the application of the re j call to the judiciary. Mums all the Hayes'. best varieties at JACKSOM TO MARTIN. Attorney General Says He'll Partici pate in Republican Caucus. Burdick, Kan.. Oct. 29. Fred S. Jackson, Republican candidate for congress In the Fourth district, in his speech here last night answered the charge of Henderson Martin that Jackson would not be able to join the Republican caucus if he were elected to congress. Mr. Jackson said: "My opponent, Mr. Martin, sees nothing- in the campaign except parti san politics. He assumes there is some reason why I should hesitate to join the Republican caucus if elected to congress, and he seems also to think that his pledge to his constituents is complete when he says, like the la mented Hill of New York. I am a Democrat.' But Mr. Martin can not escape his obligations so easily. The people this year are as much inter ested in knowing what a man will do in the caucus and what measures he will support as they are in knowing what caucus he will join. "I propose to participate in the Re publican caucus, but the caucus can not bind further than platforms. The plat form of our state binds me to vote for and sustain certain reforms in the rules of the house of representatives and support the national platform of isos. l will not allow the caucus to compel me to support for speaker man who is against the reformation of the rules of congress, the appointment of the standing committees by the nouse instead of the speaker, or against maintaining generally the ad vances that have been made in this regard in the last congress. "What will Mr. Martin do in the Democratic caucus? Will he support a Tammany Parker Democrat or a progressive for speaker? The Democrats in the last senate ns a caucus measure voted against the limitation of the issue of railroad stocks and bonds of roads engaged in interstate commerce by the federal government. Will Mr. Martin vote against this law in the next congress, or for it? "The Democrats were divided in the last congress on the proposition of a fair revision of the tariff by means of a nonpartisan tariff commission to in vestigate and collect tariff evidence, and the proposition of the revision of the tariff one schedule at a time. Will Mr. Martin favor or oppose these meas ures In the Democratic caucus, and in congress? In short, is Mr. Martin a Bourbon or is he a progressive Dem ocrat? "Some of the men who have been wont in the past to wield the party whip take exceptions to this statement of mine. I can readily understand why, it is because they are so much more loyal to party organization than f party integrity, that they would rather see their party destroyed than to see the partnership which has heretofore existed between privileged business and bad politics destroyed. They put the caucus above the platform. They de mand the kind of men in office who will continue to allow the platforms to be amended to mean something differ ent from what the platform promised the people in the election. Having failed to renominate that kind of men in their own party, they prefer to vote for Democrats who will permit the platform to be amended by the caucus leaders to suit the corporate influences. "I maintain that the constitution of any political party is its platform. I will stand for and defend- that, but I refuse to be bound hand and foot an-1 delivered to the speculative business in terests, the great railroad systems and the trusts and combines. I refuse to surrender to the caucus the right to think for me. or the right to criticise the view and acts of its leaders. I refuse to be controlled by a board cf political pirates who would scuttle the Republican ship and set it adrift upon the merciless rocks of repudiated platform pledges." AGAINST HANSON.

FARMER IS AFRAID. Benton Brown of Cowley County Ap peals to Governor. Benton Brown, a farmer living near Hoosier in Cowley county, today appealed to the governor's office to take some action regarding wnai iie terms a "gang" organized to wrest from him 120 acres of valuable land that he owns. Brown declared that since mineral and cement had been found upon his holdings about six years ago. the "gang" members have burned his hay Btacks, poisoned his stock, and done other things in an-effort to get him to sell his property to them at a nominal price. Tired of their efforts he came to Topeka. where he stated his case. It nns rofprred to the attorney general's office where an investigation will be ordered and action proDamy tasen. Brown said that while he knew the minerals found on his farm were val uable.they had not been developed. He declared that he had offered to sell the farm for $200 an acre, a sum which he termed a reasonable one. Members of the "gang." he continued, did not care to purchase from him at that price, but sought to drive him away or Inveigle him into one or an other compromising position with the intonttnn nf trotting rid of him. Among other things Brown charged that about one year ago an attempt wnu matin bv one of the "gang" to kill j his son. He said that one of the mem i hers walked over a part of the farm with the son and inadvertently was told that the son sometimes hid In a certain place to watch for the "gang" when on their depredations. The fath er warned the son not to hide In that shed again as It might be fatal. Only a few nights afterwards, according to Brown, a pig which had been placed in the building was shot. He thinks that an effort was mace at jthat time to kill his son. BETTER DIVORCE LAWS. Are Needed lii Kansas, Says F. Knapp. There Is no Question but both the di vorce and remarriage laws of Kansas need strengthening, in the opinion or F. L. Knapp, secretary of the state board of control, who today said that agitation is being made over the state which not only is intended to correct present abuses but to make wife deser tion a felony. "Of the 2,000 divorces grantedn Kan sas in the year ended, June 30, 1909," lie said. "850, or nearly half, were granted upon the grounds of abandonment. In my address before the Kansas confer ence of charities and corrections at Hutchinson last November. I advocated that Kansas should follow the lead of Minnesota and make desertion or wurui neeleet of family, a felony and that suggestion was embodied In the reso lutions adopted as a memorial to this coming legislature. "More than half of the children ad mitted to the state orphans' home are there because they have been deserted by one or both their parents. I think I am safe in saying that 75 per cent of the boys and girls confined in our state industrial schools are there be cause of criminal negligence on the nart of their parents or stepparents." A movement to add incurable insan ity to the grounds upon which a di vorce can be obtained in Kansas is be ing furthered out over the state. This was suggested and acted upon In th-5 November meeting of the chanties con. ference. HIS LAST SPEECH. Colonel Roosevelt Will Close His Cam. paign in New York Tonight. Kingston, N. Y., Oct. 29.

Midwinter Exposition Will Be Made Important Event. The committee In charge of the Mid winter Exposition, is preparing to make an active campaign for attractions for the ten days' show. An effort will be made to offer a higher class of at tractions and bring more people to To peka than any of the former exposi tions. The exposition this year will bs held January 16 to 28. A prospective will be Issued some time next week. Stationery is being prihte and advertising matter in large quantities will be sent out. Every member of the United Commercial Travelers' association will be loaded with a supply of tickets. "I think every member of the association will sell at least 100 tickets and some of the members will sell more than that number," said J. A. Worley this morn ing. "There are more than 300 mem bers of the TJ. C. T. and with every member boosting the exposition, we are sure to get some great results." "The Midwinter exposition has made money every season except two years ago, when too much money was spent for attractions. This show gives the people of Topeka a chance to meet their friends and customers during the winter months and the exposition should be made to draw fully as well as does the June merchants week," said J. L. Witt, a member of the pro gram committee. "In addition to a good program this year," continued Witt, "we will make our manufactur er's exhibit a decided feature. 'We ex pect to give the Topeka merchants the first opportunity for floor space and I believe the exhibits will be one of the feature attractions this year. "Of course It is a little too early too say much about the attractions at this time, but in a short time we can make some definite statements concerning the shows. You can depend on this though if we get the shews we want. the exposition will certainly be worth while. STRIKE FOR OPEN SHOP. Unusual Feature of the Trouble Jersey City, in New York, Oct. 29. An unparalleled feature of the express strike which has tied up thousands of dollars worth of perishable freight in the Jersey City and New York terminals is the fact that it is a fight for an open shop. Primarily the organization of "help ers struck for a wage Increase of $5 per month. But a second demand, un precedented in labor, annals. Is that there shall be no discrimination against nonunion men. "As you put it," said Vice President valentine Hoffman of the Internation al Brotherhood of Teamsters, "It is strike for the open shop, strange as it may seem. 'There are many hundreds of the men, who do not belong to the union mainly because we have not had time to approach them. It is to protect these men that the demand Is made that no discrimination be shown against nonunion men." For the first time since the strike be an ten wagons of the United States Express company were driven through Jersey City and Hoboken today. Be side each driver sat a private detective with a rifle at his side. Meanwhile the Wells Fargo company brought strike breakers over from Manhattan in taxi cabs.

This was in the early '70s. Charley was then a jockey and regarded as one of the best in the west Soon after the opening of the Dead-wood-country he went there and broke into vaudeville. The mining camp show houses were then called -variety thea ters, but the more vulgar referred to them as honkatonks. Now Ho Names His Own Salary. Charley Ross is one of the best and most popular comedians in the coun try and, like Eddie Foy. names his own salary. Another Broadway headliner who dates back to pioneer days in western Kansas is Frank Keenan, who ranks as one of the foremost actors on the Amer ican stage. Away back yonder Mr. Keenan conducted a show shop in Wichita. Besides being the proprietor, Mr. Keenan was also the star of an all star cast. I am not going to tell you how long ago that was, for the reason that Mr. Keenan and I are friends. We were friends in Mr. Keenan's Wichita days and have continued to be such ever since, only a little more so. And Frank is just a bit finicky on the age ques tion. Mr. Keenan has gradually forged his way to the front, until now he stands at the head of his profession. Did you ever see Frank Keenan play the gambler sheriff in 'The Girl of the Golden West?" No! Well, then, you don't know what you've missed. Mrs. Drew Writing Comedy. For nineteen years Mrs. Sidney Drew acted as a co-star with her husband, Sidney Drew, and the trade mark of Mr. and Mrs. Drew stood for all that was good in acting and all that was respected in private life. Two years ago Mrs. Drew was ordered by her physician to take a long rest. Inac- .V. I Gus Weinburg as Peter Stuyvesant in "The Burgomaster. At the Novelty. Vaudeville. I received a letter the other day from an old friend who has made his home in Dodge City, Kan., for more than a generation, writes Bat Master Bon in the New York Telegraph. My friend inquired about Eddie Foy. He wanted me to write and tell him all about the popular comedian, with whom he first became acquainted years ago, when Foy and his partner, Jimmy Thompson, first played a vaudeville engagement in Dodge City. It's re markable how well and fondly Eddie Foy is remembered by all the old timers out there. It was in the summer of 1878, I be lieve, that Foy and his partner, Jimmy Thompson, first appeared in Dodge. Foy could sing and dance cleverly. His voice, too. was much better than it is now. Foy was also an acrobat and could box amazingly well. Guns Didn't Awe Him. Foy possessed many characteristics that made him especially popular with the Dodge City folk. He was a game riird, and the gun man had no terrors for him. Almost everybody you met in Dodge at that time carried a six shooter or two. and were disposed to shoot on the slightest provocation. It happened one day that Foy, while wandering around among the various saloons on the main street, bumped into a real bad man with a gun. Foy was regarded as a sort of a tenderfoot by the gun man, and on that account was supposed to take it on the run as eoon as it was made apparent that there was something doing in which a certain amount of powder would be burned. But Foy fooled the bad man. In stead of kissing,' himslf out of the ar gument and hiking around the corner as the bad man had expected. Eddie just let fly with his right and the bad man's head hit the floor Eddie was on him in an instant with both feet and before the bad man realized what had happened Foy had disarmed him and booted him out into the street. Foy didn't know who he had been scrapping with until some friends told him afterward. That's Why They Uke Him. "That fellow you had the run in with," said a friend to Foy. "has killed several men and the probabilities are he'll be back here as soon as he can get another gun." "Very well," replied Eddie. "I'll wait and if he can't shoot any better than he can fight I'll win another six shoot er." The bad man failed to come back, and Eddie Foy's name was placed on the hero list then and there, and that night he received a tremendous ovation when he appeared on the stage. This is no doubt the reason why Eddie Foy is so well remembered by the old timers of Dodge City. In speaking of Broadway headliners. I'm reminded of another who used to live out in Kansas in the early days. Charley Ross, who has been playing tar parts in various productions for a tivity was not a part of her nature, and at the suggestion of those who knew her capability, she determined to try her hand at the art of play writing. Under the pen name of "George Cameron" Mrs. Drew wrote a drama in four acts entitled "Agnes" which was produced at the Majestic theater in New York city and afterwards tour ed the country with success. The ice being broken, as she had always acted by her husband's side, she determined now to write a play for him, with the result that she evolved the three act farce "Billy" which has been conceded by the press of New York, Chicago and the country ot large to be one of the most unique and original ideas ever offered on the stase. Mrs. Drew ("George Cameron") has completed a new comedy entitled "Out There" which shortly will be produced in New York city and now is at work on a comedy entitled "Some People," already contracted for by one of America's foremost managers. Mr. Drew will appear here in his wife's comedy, "Billy," on Wednesday. Horse Racing on Stage. When the Elks present "The Mas oueraders" at the Grand theater on the nights of November 3-4, a race track scene will be shown. There will be jockies, bookies, race track touts and every kind of race track follower in Topeka. The entire plot of this two act mu sical comedy centers around a twen- 6 rae MONDAY October 31st WM.

Those who have the show in charge believe they have one of the greatest sensations the Elks have yet put on. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Bren, the authors, are here rehearsing the bill and the best talent in Topeka is being kept busy. At the Majestic. Beginning Monday night the bill at the Majestic will be the American comedy drama "The Gambler and the Lady." The play is one of life of the present day, and tells the story of a woman's love and devotion, of one man's reformation and loyalty and of another man's baseness and dishonor. The dialouge is crisp and snappy, ths situations strong and tense; the en tire play one that will interest, and by the happy blending of characters and scenes, please the most exacting. "Sport" North will return to the cast and play one of those good natured, whole-souled western characters, just the sort of part North likes best, and hich seems to fit him like the time honored glove. Orval Spurrier will play the part of the husband, the reformed gambler; Miss Russell the wife; Mr. Herring "y false friend. The balance of the company are cast in congenial roles. New scenic effects have been painted for "The Gambler and the Lady" by Hugo Miller, and he promises some thing unique and differen in his part of the production. At the Novelty. The bill which opens Monday matinee at tne Novelty certainly will be pleas ing from the reports from the Western "Vaudeville Managers' association. The headliner will be Lopez Lopez whose name is a classic in vaudeville. They play on marimbiphone chimes, piano and as a closing number Senior Lopez j iiaya UJJUU laigC LtXtJlKS fUVBHJU Willi water glasses. Elliott West will open the show in a singing and eccentric dancing act. This should please the audience as the Novelty has not had any dancing act of this nature this season. Hawkins, Siddons Company will present Jack Hawkins, Louise Carey and Charles E. Siddons in a farce comedy sketch enti tled "Love's Young Dream." Eddie Gray, a comedian styling himself as the "tall tale teller" will be there with some new Jokes. Harry Clark will sing the illustrated song and new moving pictures will close the bill. THEATRICAL FLASHES. Mme. Harriet Labadie will appear at the Grand opera house November 16 as a reader and interpreter of Ibsen's "Hedda Gabler." Mrs. Burton Whiteside of Phil adelphia is here making the arrangements. The entertainment will be given under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid Society of the Presbyterian church. Roy Crawford, manager of the Grand theater, has a new photograph of Elsie Janis now starring in Jeorijo Aie's plav, "The Slim, Princess." Miss Jxriis, who last season appeared in "The Fair-Co-Kd" is a cousin of Mrs. Ray Bacon, whose husband in an attache of the Rock Islu a office in TooekJ. Miss Johnnie Ray, singer of illustrated songs at the Novelty theater, has resign ed and next week will visit her parents in Reno county. She intends going into vaudeville later in the season. She has been quite popular and has made many friends in Topeka. Harry North, brother of C. C. North, manager of North Brothers' Stock com pany, will appear in the presentation of "Going Some" week after next. The brothers will work in the bill for the first time in six years. C. C.

At noon a committee ot 40 persons met members of the com mercial body and farmers, selected to push the campaign in the interests o the proposed 50,000 county bond is sue for improvements on the grounds belonging to the county. The meeting was enthusiastic, and the farmers agreed to exert the utmost energy in persuading their neighbors that the bonds should carry because it would be a good investment for the county. Short talks were made by a number or those present, and It was decided to have representatives at all the big Bales neia in tne county in the next ten days. At 2 o'clock the regular monthly meeting of the Shawnee Alfalfa club was called to order. The State Fair' was the subject of discussion. Repre sentatives of the eight granges of the county who met at the noon hour were invited to Join in the general "talk around. Those Who Are Working.

Extra help has been employed at the fair office today sending out folders to tne tanners of tne county telling of what has been accomplished by the fair association and setting forth the need of $50,000 for permanent im provements. The folder bears a cut of the new live stock pavilion. County Clerk S. G. Zimmerman's letter is printed showing that the bond issue would mean a cost to the taxpayers of but one cent a year on each hundred dollars of assessed valuation. The order of the county commis sioners for the submission of the prop osition before the people is printed in full. It was signed by F. B. Simms, E. L. O'Neil and James Shimer and attested by S. G. Zimmerman, county clerk. The folder states that Shawnee county owns the fair grounds, which embraces a beautiful tract of land seventy-eight acres in extent, which cost the county $8,000, but which now, without improvements, is valued at $60,000, and that the improvements by subscriptions and earnings of the fair aggregate $46,000, thus giving the property a total valuation of at least $100,000. As Mr. Walker Sees It. O. E. Walker, who owns one of the most sightly farms in Shawnee county, located two miles west of the city lim its, is a hearty booster for the State fair project. He has lived in the county for nearly a third of a cen tury and is one of the heavy taxpayers, the records indicating that he annual ly contributes over a thousand dollars in taxes. "I do not believe that there is the slightest danger but the bonds will carry," said Mr. Walker, "but it would be a fatal mistake if the opposite should happen. The fair management has demonstrated that it knows its business and with a little assistance at the present time will soon be able to go it alone. The fair last fall, I be lieve to be only the beginning of a great fair, which will advertise Kan sas," and especially Shawnee county, the length and breadth of the land as nothing else will do. "I am against voting bonds Indis criminately, but in this instance it seems to me that it would be a finan cial error if we do not do so. The issue will increase our taxe but little and the benefits in years to come will amount to many hundred times the present outlay. The bonds should carry by a large majority and I feel that they will and I expect to do what I can to boost the good cause along." Cargo of Coffee Lost. New Orleans, Oct, 29.

"Each year since the automobile business reached the central states more automobiles have been used for excursion parties and hunting trips than the preceding year. During the hunting season of 1911 and 1912 the number of motors which will be spe cially equipped for the hunter will be seen on the country highway will greatly exceed last year's record," said a man of the rod and gun fraternity. "The hurrying hare and the quiver ing quail will hurry and quiver in the superlative degree when the chug chug oi tne nunter a auto is heard. All over the country, but particularly in the smaller cities within easy reach of the hunting grounds, sportsmen are learning how to use the automobile in their favorite pastime. "Even in the larger cities, the dweller finds the motor handier than the interurban or the railroad to con vey him to the wilder districts of the country, where lurks the game on which he is intent." The fact is that the motor ear will transport the hunter and his faithful dog to and from, the field of game with comfort and speed and give him more time with the birds. How Long Will They Last? What is the life of a modern motor car? How long ought a standard au tomobile, well built, amply guaran teed against defect by the parent fac tory and well cared for by the owner and driver, continue to give satisfac tory service despite the wear and tear of the machine on the United States highways? It is a peculiar fact that the auto- dark for an answer to this very ques- tion. Prospective buyers are hesitating sometimes to close the deal for the car of their choice because of the lack of certain and sure information as to the life of the car under ordinary usage. The purchaser wants to know how long hia possession will last, the dealer wants to ascertain the number of cars destined for the scrap heap in order to buy judiciously his. year's supply and the manufacturers are In some in stances deliberately wearing out the cars to furnish the information for their own benefit.

"I encountered worse roads in Missouri than anywhere on the route," said Billard. "The mud that bespat tered my car when I arrived in To peka was not collected on muddy roads, however.

What a fortunate provision of na ture it is, that deprives the rose of mental suffering; for how poignant would be its grief to discover, in the height of its blooming glory, that a canker fed at its heart, and that its beauty and fragrance were doomed forever. Nature always spares the suffering; she is a veritable store house of pleasing rewards, for those who seek her aid.

By means of the second highest railroad In the world, connecting Molleado, the main port, with Lake Titicaca and Las Pas, Bo livia, the Americans Journeyed to that point in the highlands, from which they started on a saddle trip of 1,000 miles. The trail then brought Mrs. Adams down the 1,200 feet of mountain into the savage country of the Peruvian montana, which marks the borders of Brazil. Here the saddle trail ended and the journey was resumed on foot through great forests and by canoe. The Adams party visited Chile some months later, and after calling j at its chief cities, Tierra del Fuego was gone over. At Punta Arenas a sailing vessel was chartered and a visit paid to the southermost port in "Argentine Patagonia." Through Patagonia they Journeyed to Buenos Ayres and up the great river highway La Plata, Paranta and Paraguay to the wilds of Matto Grosso, Brazil and eastern Bolivia. Returning to the Parana, the party went up the Alta Parana to the falls of the Igauzu, the only rival of Nia gara Falls on the American hemis phere.

Mr. Knapp has some informa tion regarding the inmates of the various state charitable institutions, and in view of the present agitation of the prohibition question it probably will prove especially interesting. Wildfire, the vehicle of Miss Lillian Russell in which she was seen here last season, returned to the Grand last night with Luella Morey, well known as a stock actress, in the lead ing role. Miss Morey, who was here two season's ago in "The Holy City," and previously in stock at the oid Crawford theater, proved really clever. True, she did not reach the standard of Miss Russell, yet she was satisfying. Rowland G. Edwards, husband of Miss Morey, played the part of Matt Donovan, trainer for the Duffy stables. Ordinarily he plays the part of John Garrison in which Billy Devere was seen. The house was only a small one. Dollar prices prevailed. To this fact Manager Roy Crawford attributes the small attendance.' He said after the show that it hasj been Impossible to get Topekans to attend dollar shows because they think that they are not good. Nevertheless, Mr. Crawford voiced his intention of proving that many of the dollar shows are as good as the higher priced ones. If Wildfire at one dollar is to be, classed with several others recently for which $1.50 has been charged then the dollar shows ought to prevail all of the time. Miss Clara Le Mar, character wo man in the North Brothers' stock company at the Majestic entertained for Misses Morey and Hay and Mr. Edwards, following the show. She formerly was in the company in which they played. mm gossip Your Laundry MUST Be Done Exactly Right If It Comes To Us No laundry ever watched the fine points of every process more zealously than we.

TOPEKA PUT RIGHT, f Continued from P OnM' "I think prohibition Is a marked success from a business man's stand point," Mr. Coneland continued, "for the reason that the building and loan associations tell me that the men of Topeka have spent their money for new homes and not for liquor. For merly these same men neve--paid their Dins, wages were garnisheed and the men moved on to another job and continued to use "liquor. Today we employ a class of men we could not find under saloon conditions." H. B. Kellv read the resolutions. which were finally adopted by a stand ing vote. W hen the, question was first put there was a strong division of sen timent, but when a standing vote was called, the opposition faded away. The declarations of crinciples were adopted as a preamble for the resolu tions and both were adopted in one motion. The resolutions follow: Resolutions. I Whereas, Mr. J. B. Billard, mayor of this city, and who has always been an enemy of the state prohibitory liquor law, has recently made the public statement that prohibition is a failure in the city of Topeka and the state of Kansas; that it has made criminals or a large majority of our citizens; that 90 of our people use liquor, and that the law has been det rimental to the city and state: Be It Resolved, by the citizens of Topeka, in mass convention assembled, First That we denounce the Bil lard statements regarding the effect of the prohibitory law as false and vil- lianously libelous of our citizens, city and state, inexcusably made for the purpose of aiding the liquor interests in their waning fight against temper ance, sobriety and decency. Second That the removal of the open saloon has freed politics from its evil and corrupting influence; it has taken temptation out of the way of the laboring man, who now spends for food, shoes and clothing what was too often paid across the bar for that which contributed nothing to his good and brought only sorrow and distress to his helpless wife and children; it has made all legitimate business bet ter, and, above all, has given a high moral tone to civic life unknown to the saloon town and state. Third After twenty-nine years of prohibition in Kansas the law against the illicit traffic of intoxicating liquors Is as well enforced as other laws, and prohibition is today more firmly than ever before established in the hearts of our people as the only sane way of dealing with this destructive evil. Fourth Topeka and Kansas will take no backward step in this great moral and economic issue. We send greetings to those fighting in this cause in sister states, assuring them that in Kansas prohibition is a success and ia here to stay. H. B. KELLY, C. K. HOLLIDAT, S. G. STEWART, D. H. BRA NAM AN. Dr. Loveland's Speech. Rev. F. L. Loveland, pastor of the First M. E. church, said in part: "I am a stranger in your city and do not feel competent to pass judgment on this particular question from a local standpoint; but I do know that Kansas stands most high away from home. I am not here to question the statements of anyone, but if the prohibition law of Kansas is a farce, its operation a fallacy and of no repute, if 90 per cent of the people of Topeka and Kansas drink liquor, if prohibition is working an injury to the business interests of the state, and if home makers go else where to make homes, it's like news from the Potomac and mighty impor tant if It is true. If it is true, you people should disperse and go quietly to your homes Dut it is not i wno is competent to say who is eligible to membership in the Ananias club. A matter of a man's right to eat and drink what he pleases may be a de batable question, but when a place for the sale of these things is set up in your public places, it becomes a social question, and no man whether private citizen or officeholder can raise a per sonal question." He denied that the temperance question was in the hands of a crowd of long haired men and short haired women and said that the business men's organization fighting nrohibition was composed of the stockholders in the breweries. Rev. Loveland pointed to countries where Honor traffic had been a failure and disgarce and asked the gathering to send some word or tne is.ansas situa tion back to his old home in Nebraska. William Macferran endorsed prohi bition from the business man's stand point. He said prohibition had been a benefit to business and tnat or tne 50,000 people living in Topeka. there were 20,000 bank accounts. Macfer ran also pointed to the fact that 4,000 people had either bought or built homes in Topeka the last year as an-ntyior- endorsement of temperance. E. W. Rankin read a long list of statistics on liquor traffic and read the per capita assessed valuation of the state. Rev. Charles M. Sheldon talked for ten minutes on the benents or prom httinn to the state and compared Kan sas with other, states in which there were wide open saloons. Captain Waters' Address. J. G. Waters insisted that the Billard statement was the worst slander ever perpetrated on the state. He arguea that the tsinara compiaims were uuii vlrlnal and charared the mayor with be ing in a public place in Topeka where there was drinking. Waters dug up several personal matters In connection with Billard's past. These were dis played before the inquiring gaze of the nrohibitionists. Waters said in part: "There is a place Don't Delay placing the order for that Winter Suit any longer. Winter is here and you need it If you want good cloth if you want a good fit, let us take your measure. The latest, newest patterns the latest niftiest styles. down on Crane street kept by a Joint- ess by the name of Adams, who way lays the workmen, to and from the shops and packing houses at all hours during all days with her vile compounds of wood alcohol, assfoetida and prus- sic acid; and the mayor if he had en- gaged himself in destroying her den. would have found no time to have dip ped his pen in gall and slandered his office, his country and her laws. I know of but one place where an employee would be permitted to utter such re-! marks as the mayor has signed and published; and that is at a vinegar works on the North side, where the pure food law has recently compelled it to make cider vinegar from apples and where a short time ago a young man by the name of Oliver, now sick in his bed from it, was blown out of the boiler room by the explosion of gas permitted to escape by the neglect of an inebriated employee, the head of which establishment Is an officer in the villifying concern presided over by the mayor. "The progress of temperance In this city and state has been wholly educa tional. It was considered an arbitrary curtailment of personal liberty for the railway managements to declare that no train operative should drink while in service, but we all got used to it; the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers adopted it; and then in the swift efflux of time, the railway managers declared that its operatives should not drink even when off duty and the Brotheerhood adopted this too. This is not all. The National Association of Brotherhood adopted this too. This is tablished prohibition as strong as that of. Kansas and declares that the bar tenders must not drink. We have trav eled a long way toward the goal when the white apron of the bartenders is a badge of sobriety. "There is not a business roan in Kansas who wants to change the situation here. Tradesmen do not desire that their pat rons shall have the privilege of a saloon on Saturday night and spend their money there before they pay their bills. "The most pestiferous element in poli tics has been run out of the state. The saloon interest is not a factor here; they no longer are the ward cesspools; they no longer corral the worthless and no ac count voters and vote them as cattle at the polls. "We have a city magnificent and splen did; there is no room in it for the vile, despicable and mean. In this city there Is a less number of young men going wrong than in any other place of its pize in the United States, and this should attract attention of those who desire to give their children a fair start, unhandl capped by the nefarious, degrading, ope" saloon. 'Let the Missouri an come over here and see for himself. If he is a gentleman he can buy no liquor in this state. He will see only clean intelligent faces reinforced by homes, pocketbooks and prosperity; the people he will find well dressed and happy. In none of them will he see a heart breaking scene of an Intoxicated bread winner who is drunken from the interstate tarantula toxin, kept for sale by some Semetic American in Kansas City, Mo. "Mr. Mayor, you did us wrong and wronged your htgh office. You pandered to the disreputable and gave willing ser vice to a lot of undesirable citizens. The purpose of the times is higher planes in life. It Is for you to apologize or for us to condemn. You did what you did to help on a sordid campaign of avarice and greed now being waged by the brewers of Missouri against the homes of the state, against the women and children of that great commonwealth who are first touched by the saloon; who feel it the longest and who are at all times its help less sufferers. I thank God I am not such a mayor." When a collection was taken to defray the expenses of the meeting Mayor Bil lard dropped a bill on the plate. NEAR DEATH'S DOOR. John R. Sargent, Jr., Takes Corrosive Sublimate by Mistake. John R. Sargent, Jr., accidentally took two small tablets of corrosive sublimate this morning at his home at 1312 College avenue.

PENSION WANTED Supt. a. II. iiushey of Pittsburg Discusses Plan. Would Increase Efficiency of Teachers lie Says. 310YEME3T IS STARTED Other States Already Have Such Laws. Endowments and Bequests Would' Increase the Fund. Pittsburg. Kan., Oct. 29. "The pen sion system is becoming more popular in all parts of the world in every line," said Superintendent A. H. Bushey while discussing the present movement to pension the teachers of Kansas. He strongly favors the idea, as he be lieves it would increase the efficiency of the teachers and would promote the welfare of the schools generally. Mr. Bushey is a member of the state board of education, said: "In the opinion of the committee which recommended the law to the as sociation, the time has arrived for the urging of a strong pension law. Rhode Island. South Carolina, Maryland. Ohio New Jersey, Virginia, Pennsylvania and a number of other states have already enacted laws for teachers' pensions and there is no good reason why such legis lation should not receive favorable ac tion in Kansas, the most progressive state in the Union. "It is thought that such legislation will benefit the state in that it will tend to draw the ablest men and wo men of the country to the teaching profession and will keep them in the work, making the service of teaching permanent in nature, rather than tem porary as it now is on account of the meagre salaries paid, and the fact that no provisions are made for old age when the teacher's usefulness is pass ed. It is further believed that no class of persons serve the state better than do the teachers, and that it is but right and just that the state should make some provision for the care and com fort of those whose whole lives have been consecrated to its service." Author of Propsed Law. Mr. Bushey is chairman of the leg islation committee of the State Teach ers' association which recommended the law to the association. At the recent netting of the association t was al most unanimously favored. Principal H. L. Miller of Kansas City, Kan., read a paper almost entirely devoted to the proposed pension law and teachers' sal aries. He told of the fact that he knew no teachers in the state that were rich and he made it plain that a part of ev ery teacher's salary is spent during the vacation preparing for the coming year's work. Considering that most teachers work but nine months in the year and are paid for no more time, their salaries are smaller than the com monest wage earner, on an average. Principal Robert E. Hartsock says a teacher hasn't any time to stop to make money for old age if he expects to make teaching a life work. He is of the opinion that teachers cannot be successful and work at something else in the summer time and even if they could they could not work to their own advantage owing to lack of desire on the part of employers to hire men who are not specialists. Must Hunt Odd Jobs. A teacher is a specialist in his line and is probably the only class of spec ialized labor that has to pick up odd jobs during three months of the year for a livelihood. This last condition doesn't apply to all teachers, especial ly those who are well paid, but there are a large class who have barely enough to live on. Principal Hart sock says there is a great class of teachers who cannot, for their own good, afford to stay in the profession and this condition makes it impossible to keep those experienced in the busi ness. He believes that teachers who have sense enough to be the tutors of Toting America have too much sense to face old age without a competence. The plan suggested for Kansas is to give the teacher who has taught SO A PURE PRODUCT OF U. S. tu Office fir 111 MONDAY. years a pension of one-half the amount of his salary the last month he taught provided It be the normal salary. No pension should exceed $500 per year. Superintendent A. H. Bushey said yesterday that many industrial es tablishments of the country are pen sioning their superannuated employes', not as a matter of charity but as a good plan and found that they get better business service. They have tried the policy. The pension fund would be support ed partly by taxation, partly by be quests and endowments and partly by assessments voluntarily assessed upon the teachers themselves. W.

Politics Intervenes on Behalf of Ix-av-enworth Felines. Leavenworth, Kan.. Oct. 29. Fear of possible political complications has deterred the police from making any attempt to kill unmuzzled cats in Leavenworth, but the order for the muzzling of all dogs Is being strictly enforced. Police armed with shot guns are patrolling streets outside the business district to kill unmuzzled dogs, but at noon only three dogs had been killed. A dog showing every symptom of rabies was found on a downtown street yesterday afternoon and penned up for observation. The animal died last night and a post mortem examination showed that its death was due to rabies. This information was com municated to the police this morning and the patrolmen were instructed to observe all dogs carefully for symp toms of rabies. Most cats are family pets and the city commissioners are afraid that a wholesale killing of them will stir up the women. The women have a vote in Kansas and the commissioners are not going out of their way to do things that might have an influence on tne woman vote next spring. The few dogs left at Fort Leaven worth are muzzled and penned up, and only a few cats are at large. So far as is known here there have been only five persons In the city and at Fort Leavenworth bitten by animals i two officers and two enlisted men bit ten by a bulldog at Fort Leavenworth and a boy in the city who was bitten by a cat. All took the Pasteur treat ment. Dr. C. R. Carpenter, city health offi cer, said today that he had reports of eight cases In the county In the last two months and had heard of many farm animals having been bitten by dogs which showed symptoms of rabies. Doctor Carpenter talked witn health officers in adjoining counties and was told of several cases of rabies in humans and of many cows and horses and other farm animals having heen bitten. He immediately com municated with the state board of health and the order issued today probably is the result of an investiga tion made by the board. "The situation is alarming," Doctor Carpenter said. "The order to muzzle all dogs should De oDeyea at once. CUMMTNS IN KANSAS CITY. Iowa Senator Is Introduced by Bristow of Kansas. Kansas City, Kan., Oct. 29. Senator A. B. Cummins, of Iowa, addressed an audience here last night at a meeting under the auspices of the Wyandotte County Republican club. Senator Jos eph L. Bristow, of Kansas, introduced the speaker. Senator Cummins said it would be useless for the progressives and the regulars to attempt to convince the public that no material differences ex isted between them as the line was sharply drawn. "If every Republican who believes that the tariff was not revised down ward votes the Democratic ticket we shall have a Democratic house," he said, in speaking of the tariff. The meeting was held in a tent and the temperature hovered near 40 de grees. However, the audience was not large. LAWRENCE EAGLES TO BUILD. Will Erect an $18,000 Lodge Home at Once.

NEW BALLAST ON ROCK ISLAND. Burned Clay Spread Over Track Near Lincoln, Neb. Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 29. Two Rock Island work trains have been employed between Lincoln and Prairie Home and one train has been in service for a long time in this vicinity. The ballast being placed on the gap In track sur facing east of Lincoln is burned clay. For several years the company burned clay near Hallam, but this now being used is said to come from a ballast pit in northwestern Missouri. It has been spread from the east through the Havelock yards and for a short dis- renews and sustains the strength of weak, failing babies; pale, delicate chil dren; tired, nervous women and feeble, aged people.

The railroads are now moving a great amount of fuel. The yards of the different companies In Lincoln are filled with loaded coal cars and urgent work in getting cars unloaded and back in service is being done by car service departments. Because of the need of fuel for storage against winter blockades every car available is being used in coal transportation. FRISCO TO CITY OF MEXICO. Construction of Tamplco Line Will Complete Route. Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 29. That the Frisco soon will realize Its long cher ished aim of a through line from Kan sas City and St. Louis to the City of Mexico seems certain. Frisco stock has taken a perceptible jump since the recent alliance with the Southern Pa cific lines in Texas, by which the Frisco now is able to maintain through service between Kansas City and Gal veston. From Galveston south to Brownsville, where a new bridge has just been opened over the Rio Grande the Frisco has the St. Louis, Brownsville Mexico road. Arrange ments already have been started, ac cording to current reports, for a traf fic alliance between the Frisco and the National Railways of Mexico, which will be consummated. It is said, as soon as a line is built from Tampico to the City of Mexico. It is announced on good authority that the construction of this road will be started as soon as the locating work can be done and formal approval given it by the government. This line was started a few years ago by the Mexican Central railroad and about twenty-five miles of track were laid, but work was suspended when that road passed Into the hands of the National Railways. TRADE OUTLOOK GOOD. Dun Co. Says Backward Movement of Business Has Been Stopped. New York, Oct. 29. R. G. Dun Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: While the volume of business is still below productive capacity, it Is note worthy that trade recession has clear ly been checked, and a more optimistic view as to the future developed, based largely on the great corn and oats crop and the high values of farm products. It is true that no marked advance has been made toward increased activity but the mere stopping of the retrograde movement is a notable gain, especially as the railroad rate controversy is still unsettled. While many consumers of iron and steel still show conservatism in their operations, signs of actual im provement In business are not lacking. The trend of dry goods values con tinues upward, owing to the high price of raw material. The demand from dis tributors for spring has been fair but not active. Men's wear is showing im provement while dress goods rule very quiet. The cotton goods markets hold steady, at advanced price levels and the mills are gradually getting into work ing order on full time, but not with full complements of machinery. Trade in foot wear continues to im prove, although business is considerably below normal. Bank Clearings.

HOSE who enjoyed the de lightful little story "Miss Selina Lue" will be pleased to hear that the author, Maria Thompson Daviess, has written a new and more Mi M m pretentious novel just published by the Bobbs-Merrill company. It is "The Road to Providence." It may be said briefly, at the start, and without ex aggeration, that Miss Daviess' new book is just as good as its name, whole some, sweet with human kindness, juicy with humorous philosophy. Mother Mayberry, its chief character, is own cousin to Miss Selina Lue, who, with her soap-box babies, made such a host of friends when she appeared on the pages of the author's previous story last year. As Miss Selina Lue was guardian of the entire river Bluff, so Mother Mayberry looks after Provi dence and its vicinity. A Tennessee couutry doctor's wife, the mother of a distinguished physician, she herself is equal to curing any ailment from teething to tisic. Large, radiating, capable, she "lives by the side of the road," and is a friend to every man, woman and child who comes aiong it. Cheer, clothes, cake, roses, whatever is needed, she gives with free hand and warm heart. Naturally, being kin to Miss Selina Lue, Mother Mayberry is inclined not only to mothering but to epigrams. When she speaks, the milk is in the cocoanut every time. "Won dering how Eve stood things muster took Adam's mind qffen himself to a very comforting degree." But senti ment, piety, worldly wisdom, humor, practicality and coquetry are all blend ed In Mother Mayberry, and surpris ing as it may seem, they all mix thor oughly, with the result that life seen through the compound Is a beautiful, dignified, useful, serious, happy affair. Eleanor Hallowell Abbott, author of "Molly Make-Believe," just issued by The Century Co., is a granddaughter of Jacob Abbott, who wrote "The Rollo" books; a daughter of the late Rev. Edward Abbott, former editor of the Boston Literary World, and a niece of Dr. Lyman Abbott.

In these days when sro many writers are concerning themselves with prob lems and are taking one side or the other in some current controversy, it is refreshing to come across a novel which is a story pure and simple with no problems, no "isms" In it. Such a novel is Mabel Osgood Wright's lat est. Princess Flower Hat, just pub lished. The principal character, dubbed Princess Flower Hat by Bar bara the old Barbara of some of Mrs. Wright's previous stories- is a woman of temperament and fascination who owing to environment never had a chance to be her real self. The events which center around her endeavor to break away from society and make a country home for herself after certain preconceived ideas, comprise a delight ful, amusing, quick-moving comedy.

Kate Trimble Sharber is the author of "The Annals of Ann," Just pub lished by the Bobbs-Merrill company. All sorts and conditions of fun are to be found in this story of life and love as seen through the eyes of a little girl. Ann is at the age when to giggle is as natural as to breathe and by means of a delightful contagion, the reader speedily catches the habit and giggles with her. At the gawky age, as Ann calls it, new Ideas tumble over each other in their haste to find expression, and life fairly Hoods the young mind and heart. New England Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm is not more charming than this little south ern girl on her plantation home with its big old-fashioned house "far back in the yard, and always the smell of apples upstairs." But Ann ia by no means another Rebecca she has her own personality.distinct and endearing. She is just as imaginative, but she ia far more romantic, is less practical, more gay, gentle, happy, winsome. Poverty has never cast its shadow on her spirits nor has ill-treatment sharpened her temper. A more nor mal child than her New England cou sin, she is quite as full of qualntnesses and individuality. Rebecca has made her way through all sorts of weather, Ann seems wholly sun-ripened; one girl may claim, perhaps, more char acter, but to the other must be allow ed more charm.

(BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS.) -XB marked dirterence Deiween YV Americans that is, the peo I 1 pie of the United States and f j J Canada and the inhabitants SLPi of the old world, is the en- 1 thusiasm of the former and tVi. conservatism of the latter. ins older nations, especially the oriental, are careful, calculating, discriminating and sophisticated. They have learned the rule of number one. They have a carefully measured politeness ana punctiliousness that the westerner does not always possess, but they lack his spontaniety. The generous hearted Impulsive American is a strange crea ture in their eyes. That this very art lessness of genuineness, this unreined sentiment, may be a virtue is hard for them to realize. By the highest stand ards we know that warm, upspringing sincerity is the highest expression of ch3.r3.ctcr. The notable Instance is that of Mary of Bethany, who poured an alabaster flask of previous ointment upon the feet of her friend and teacher, the Master who had restored her brother Lazarus to life. Her act scandalized the be holders. It, was extravagant beyond their thinking. Like "practical" minds In all time, they were utterly unableto weigh their worth of sentiment. The Judgment of the world's wisest philoso pher who was a participant in the scene, was that the act merited uni versal fame and lo, the centuries have been telling the story of Mary's lavish love. The twenty-five million members of the world's Sunday schools who this week ore studying the Incident, are but a few of the myriads who have echoed the Saviour's praise of Mary's self forgetting, uncalculating devotion. The Picture's Dark Background. The incident is painted with sharp contrasts. Like one of Rembrandt's paintings, it has a dark background. The foes of Jesus, who had doomed him to death, were lurking in-the rear. We are given a glimpse of the malevo lence of the Jewish ecclesiastics and merchants who plotted his downfall. If Mary's act was the extreme of spon taneous devotion, here is the opposite extreme of measured self interest. They conned all the possibilities in volved in the arrest of Jesus. A stealthy arrest, a swift and unadver tised death, were their program. But always they were counting their own chances. Their devotion to a cause was not the self forgetting kind: they wer shrewd men of the world. Plot ting murder, they yet planned to en compass it without any danger to themselves. So encrusted with selfish ness had their hearts become that they simply were unable to compre hend the nobility of Mary, much les3 that of Jesus himself. Pity all whose capacity for hero worship has become trophied. In the modern lingo of half-bake:! psychologists. Jesus was a "psychic. That is. his nature was one peculiarly sensitive to all Influences, especially spiritual. He was attuned to the finer forces. His spirit was keenly develop ed. Hostility smote him as a blow. An unfriendly atmosphere was as real to him as the sunlight. The enmity of the religious leaders of his countrymen bore down upon his soul like a cross. Equal ly, a word, or look, an act of compre hension and sympathy acted as tonic to him. Amid adverse surroundings, he sought the haven of the Bethany home and the succor of the family's In telligent ministry. Food for a Hungry Heart. Hungry hearts are fed by tokens of love. There Is nothing in an creation which so ministers to a man's nobler nature as the evidence that he is loved with a deep, pure and unfathomable love. This is a phase of the Bethany story that can scarcely be overstressed. It is true to life as we know It. What keeps the wheels of industry revolv ing the world around, and makes men sacrifice and labor and suffer grandly. Is it not the love of dependent dear ones. In all ages men have been forti fied for the hardest experiences and the highest heroisms by the knowledge that women trusted them and loved them and honored them. This has been one of the sustaining motives in the human breast. This "nale Gallilean" going forth to contumely and crucifixion, fed on the act of Mary as a famished man ieeas on bread. Amid so much hate and faithlessness, he needed Just this en couragement. It was as the kiss of a wife to a man starting forth to battle. Those feet that Mary anointed with a small fortune's worth of pure nard how her woman wit must have plan ned and saved and sacrificed for this offering had a long flinty Journey im mediately before, and greatly they needed this fortifying, and that head was to wear a thorny crown. A Woman's Insight. A woman's insight goes farther and faster than a man's reasoning. In all Jerusalem and its environs there seems to have been only one person who per ceived the real Messiahship of Jesus. The doctors of the law were too blind ed by. offended pride and bigotry to read their prophets aright. The disci ples were occupied wiin personal am bitions and strangely blind to the mean ing of what their Leader had tried re peatedly to make plain to them. The crucifixion was only a few hours dis tant and yet nobody seemed to under stand, except the heavy-hearted victim himself. And Mary. She was the type of spir itually-minded woman to whom the deep things of life and religion appear to open easily. All women have a ca pacity for religion, and when this ca pacity is neglected the essential wo manliness of character suffers an irre parable loss. It is the divine mission of womanhood to keep alight the fires of religion on the altars of the rac Some in a peculiar degree find their supreme engrossment in religion. Marv was one such. Her highest joy was to sit in rapt attention at the feet of Him who sometimes honored her home s Its guest. There she had learned what the others had missed, that the Master must go to bis kingdom by way of hu miliation and death. Most delicately and appropriately she commemorated the approaching hour by this priceless offering of ointment. A perfect gentleman, always, Jesus showed that he understood. To the bad-mannered and critical crowd around him carried away by their sordid sense of values, he said, as a rebuke to them and as an expression of gratitude to the woman prostrate at his feet, "She hath wrought a good work upon me For in that she poured this ointment upon my bodv she did It to prepare me for burial Verily I Bay unto you. wheresoever this gospel shall be preached In the whole world, that also which this wo man hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her." v The Taint of Money. There is one other character in the story who remains to be mentioned. Judas, one of the Twelve, forever an example of how a man can descend to lowest depths, even while amid the highest influences, gave rein to his love for money. Now money, with all its beautiful possibilities of ministry and love and culture, has the faculty of dwarfing the finer capacity of all who love it. The person who thinks over much of money is bound to suf fer In soul. There is no escaping that law. Whoever pursues money as primary purpose, imperils his soul for this world as well as for the next. There is not a crime ever committed that has not at some time or other been done from lust for gold. Love of money made Judas the disciple over into Judas the betrayer. When Jesus brushed aside his re monstrances against the waste involv ed in Mary's act although much that seems Jike waste to petty minds is often the highest use he apparently resolved to abandon this impractical Leader, to feather his own nest at the same time. So he bartered with the ecclesi. stic for the betrayal of the Lord: only to learn too late that even the most sordid soul may win financial success at too great cost. Judas got money, money got Judas; and that i3 why he stands pilloried highest In thfl world's hall of infamy. The Outreachlng Church. Terse Comments for October 30, "My Denomination at Work in Other Lands," Ps. 2: 1-8. BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS. From Africa's teeming tribes, from India's perishing multitudes, from Chi na's mighty millions, from Japan's throbbing life, from every soul among the thousand millions that know not God, the cry of despair its inarticulate cry for help goes up. This weary world in all its continents, with all its na tions, wants to know more of Christ's message, and of that love that stoops from heaven. China has no sorrow that his message cannot cure; India has no problem that it cannot solve; Japan no question that It cannot answer, Africa no darkness that it cannot dispel. Jud son Smith. Japan Is beset by a problem of which little or nothing is heard on this side of the Pacific. This problem is the im morality of her young people. With the sudden Influx of western civiliza tion, Japan gave herself wholehearted ly to the work of popular education. She has a greater percentage of her population of school age in attendance upon educational institutions than has any other nation. But she has learned that education Is not enough; the worst immorality she has ever known exists today among her students. The very foundations of national character are threatened. So grave is the situation that the statesmen are taking it up, and publicly declaring that the ethical teaching which is a part of the school curriculum is inadequate without a re ligious basis. The case of the most modern and most ambitious of the great world powers Illustrates the old Scriptural saying. Righteousness ex alteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people." No Christian work Is large enough that does not take thought of the whole world's needs. When an adequate conception of the tremendous Importance of this enter prise called foreign missions grips the intelligence of Christendom, it will no longer suffer an inefficient missionary to set out for the field, or to remain there after his Inefficiency has been dis covered. This work demands the verj best talent, and none but the best. Lax methods of administration, and grave tactical blunders, may be permitted to j the church In the homeland, but on the foreign field they are Inexcusable. If non-Christian faiths were "good enough." then the intrusion of foreign missions would be an Impertinence. The wayfaring man may see that these so called "ethnic religions" have missed the mark, if Judged by their obvious fruits. As mainsprings of the social advancement of their people, they have failed. The contrast is simple and apparent. The non-Christian religions have produced heathendom; Christianity has produced Christendom. The world Is steadily growing small er. The ends of the earth are rapid ly drawing together. World movements are now neighborhood affairs. The in ter-relation of all humanity is perceiv ed today by every thinking person. This implies world-citizenship. And the health, sanity and general welfare of the whole world becomes part of the responsibility of every citizen. This big question has moved outside the confines of professedly and techni cally missionary operations, as a mem ber of the world-commonwealth every man owes the debt of neighborliness and helpfulness to every other man he can by any means reach. The example and commands of Jesus make It compulsory for every Chris tian to become a missionary. Opportunities are beckoning hands The world has never seen so many open doors for the gospel. Not only must all send, but all should go. If we cannot go to Africa or In dia or China we can be missionaries to our next door neighbor. All unsaved souls are included in God's mission field. Aside from one small and decadent 'lenomination in the southern states '.here are, so far as I am informed, no non-missionary churches on this west ern continent. Every great and grow ing denomination has been swept into world activity. Some churches are more flourishing abroad than at home. Every year the distinction between their home and foreign work grows less and less, and all insensibly to some of their own members, the very largeness of the de .lominational bounds Is compelling jlose relations with other denomina tions.

In a decision handed down by the state supreme court at Little Rock, Ark., the other day it was held that the union between the Presbyterian Church of the United States of Amer ica and the Cumberland Presbyterian church in 1906 was valid and that the Presbyterian Church of the United States of America succeed to the right and title of all the property held by the Cumberland Presbyteiran body. The court' declares that when the general assembly of the Cumberland churches voted to unite with the Northern Presbyterian as to faith this action transferred the right of prop erty as well.

RUSSELL. i Pastor Brooklyn

ONDON, Oct. 23. Pastor Russell of Brooklyn, today addressed an immense audi ence in the world's greatest auditorium, the Royal Al bert hall. Many of his au dience were Jews, attracted by the lib eral extracts from Pastor Russell's sermons which have been appearing in the Jewish papers all over the world. The discourse was full of comforting assurances (both to Jew and Gentile) of the glorious outcome of the. Di vine plan, as respects our world and Its inhabitants.. We report the address only in part, as follows: There can be no doubt that the words of our text apply, not to spir itual Israel and the heavenly Jerusa lem, but to the seed of Jacob, for many centuries travailing in pain a nation without a land, people possessing most wonaerrui promise, yet enjoying none of them a people scattered amongst all other peoples; yet, in harmony with the Divine promise made at the begin ning of their organization, they have been preserved separate and distinct from all other nations! The Jews are a miracle In themselves. They witness to the civilized world God's promises and the powers thereof in the human mind. As toretold in the Scriptures for long centuries they have had no prophet, no priest, no ephod, no vision from God, no revelation. The people to whom at one time belonged the hon or of being the only people to whom the Div;ne purposes wre revealed have for more than eighteen centuries been left destitute of any evidence of Di vine favor, except in this one fact, that their solidarity as a people is preserved. We are not of those who ran against the Jew: who cry out, "Christ-killers; the vengeance of God is upon you, and what vou have suffered is only a fore taste of more awful sufferings for all eternity!" Thank God, No! We have no such evil sentiment in our heart. We have nothing for the Jew but sym pathy, even while in him as in others of Adam s children, we may see mucn to reprehend: nevertheless, we also see his commendable qualities. Among others, we see the quality which God so greatly appreciated In Abraham; namely, faith in his God and in tne Divine promises. Such a faith has in spired "God's Chosen People" to wait for his promised Messianic Kingdom, lo, these many centuries through all kinds of discouragements, disappoint ments and persecutions. The long promised time of Israel's exaltation as the channel of Messianic blessing to mankind is near it hasteth greatly. What though there shall be another and great spasm of triubla- tion in conjunction with the birth of the new order of things! Beyond tne sighing and the crying, the morning dawns the glorious da- in which the Sun of Righteousness shall chase from the world all the shadows or aeatn and despair, which sin and its penalty have brought upon mankind! What though the Scriptures tell us that Is rael is yet to have "The time or ja ob's trouble" in connection with the world's great time of trouble impend ing. None of these things shall hinder us from rejoicing in the New Heavens and the New Earth, which God de clares he is about to create and put into control of our world "Be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create" (Isaiah lxv, 18). The New Heavens and the New Earth are but symbolical terms for the consideration of that new era. In which L there will be a new social order, as well as a new ecclesiastical system. eternal in the heavens. .j i tr. Xlie U1I1C 1 1 il.l uuuic vt ii t 11 uui LCAL ia having its fulfillment.

In memory of God, who has fructi fied their harvests and has hidden his splendor under the veil which Is form ed from the wheat, the farmers of Al berta during the coming harvest pro pose to gather their finest ears of wheat, from which will be formed for the procession in Montreal a splendid arch. Standing out from a golden background of the ripened grain on it9 summit the words "Homage from the Catholics of Alberta" will be form ed by bunches of real grapes. After the procession these ears of wheat will be ground and sent to a community to be employed in the making of altar bread. Literally tons of flowers. It is said, will be sent from all parts of Canada, and doubtless from the United States also, to be used during the procession. Catholics and non-Catholics in Mont real are making a united effort to in sure the complete success of the con gress. Washington Star. Roman Catholic Project In France. "Sillon" is the name given to a movement in France which was started by Roman Catholic young men about eight years ago. They propose to ex press the spirit of Christianity in all social affairs, and they are doing this in practical ways. They hold an an nual congress In which they proclaim the principles of trade unions and co operation. They fight the sweating system, advocate limitations of hours of labor and pensions for workingmen. They publish a weekly newspaper and have frequent meetings in various parts of the republic which are attend ed not only by Catholics, but by Prot estants and freethinkers as well. Spread of Christian Science. A Christian Science church was es tablished every three and one-half days during the year ending June 1, according to the report of Clerk John V. Dlttemore at the recent annual meeting In Boston of the First Church of Christ. Scientist, the mother church of the Christian Science denomination.

Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her Iniquity ia pardoned; for she hath re ceived of the Lord's hand double for all her sins." Isaiah xl, 1, 2. page shows us that the great clock of the universe is marking the hour when he whose right It "is shall take to him self his great power and reign. Ah, yes! We remember that it is written that then the nations shall be angry, and God's wrath shall be manifest, and then the time shall come for the Judg ment of the dead and the reward of all, both small and great. But we are glad, nevertheless, that the "times of the Gentiles" are nearly at an end and the time of Messiah's theocratic gov ernment is at hand For he must reign until he shall have put down all un righteousness and insubordination, un til he shall have caused every knee to bow and every tongue to confess to the glory of God the Father. First in order of the Kingdom work will be the binding of Satan the work of a heavenly, and flot an earthly king. Gradually, in the judgments, decrees, rewards, punishments of man kind and the banishing of sin and death will the great King of Glory re veal his own gracious character and the Father's righteousness to the chil dren of men. Gradually all will have the eyes of their understanding open- ed to see, not only the Father of all in his true character, but also the Son in his glorious majesty the Conquer- or, "who. for the Joy that was set be fore him, endured the cross, despising the shame," and hence Is at the right hand of Divine majesty and entrusted with the pouring out of the Divine blessing upon Israel, and, through Is rael, extending that blessing to every nation One King, but Two Kingdoms. It has escaped Christendom In gen eral until now that the Divine promise to Abraham is to be fulfilled through two seeds one a heavenly class, the other an earthly "class, with Messiah the Head over all. For eighteen cen turies God favored the seed of Abra ham, the nation of Israel. Chastise ments they had, reproofs in righteous ness; yet in all the time they had also it:as, jci in an nie nine uicy uau aiou Divine favor, as represented in their law and in the prophecies and in the privileges which came to them under the law covenant, in that they had an annual atonement day. which contin ued to them Divine favor. That period gan to wane about the time of Jesus' death. It was completely removed from them in the desolation of their land by the Roman army A. D. 70.1 Now a parallel time has been reached, i i u it i for the return of God's favor, as here- in mentioned. The favor already Is returning. The Jew has not been so comfort able nor so favorably fixed as he is today, in more than eighteen cen turies. But the blessing is only begin- nine.

lses or tne law Already the Jew ttiizaLiun 1 1 una ki-l u imMi OT.,,.v,ont is about to bud and blossom into a re- liglous movement and the blessing of Divine Providence will so order their affairs. .The words of the Book, the words of divine promise, so long read ignorantly and blindly, are about to become luminous and constitute the i l- t v. orill A Ttet tnm In tnA i t i n o- nn n fha rehabilitation of Jerusalem and to the j rael and the world and the Messiah of attainment of loftier ideals amongst Glory, whose Kingdom will use Israel the Jewish people. A voice is sound-i in the blessing of the world, ing from the wilderness, and the Jews Meantime, -what has God wrought7 everywhere are hearkening to it. It Ah, this, again, we say is the mys Tint .all them to hecome Chris- terv!

This great Celes- tial Empire will be established with great authority in the world by a time of trouble, a time of earthly distress, which the prophecies picture as terri ble a short reign of anarchy. Jews and Gentiles will be responsible, rich and poor, for the bringing to pass of this awful trouble, by reason of the selfishness which at present is govern ing the world and which will be used of the Lord to wreck out present grand civilization grand at least on its sur face and m Its aspirations and preten sions. A socialistic artillery of words and ecclesiastical bonds of similar na ture will only aggravate the strife. Financial weights and levers will have much to do with the great crash of the forces of civilization in this near approaching cataclysm of trouble. In which the reign of sin, iniquity. In justice, selfishness, shall forever fall, to rise no more; and the present re ligious systems also shall be found old Rvstems. svmhnlieallv the heavens and earth of the present time will be substituted the New Heavens and the New Earth the church glorified be- I hat mewage frequently was dimmed yond the vail as the Bride of the y earthly Imperfections and b em great Messiah, and, society on earth hes by erroneous representations, reorganized, will constitute the New saintly ones will be sharers Earth, wherein will dwell righteous- YLlth Messiah In Divine blessings on ness. 'The transition will be but a ""w E momentary ordeal, as compared with hm, under the figure that his "Seed the glorious eternity of blessing under 8h.all be as the stars of heaven." But Messiah's righteous supervision. "He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth." Israel's Hopes Why So Delayed? The perplexing thought with our Jewish friends as well as with cnris tians, is, If these things be so; if Mes-! siah's Kingdom is yet to be established as the Jews contemplated, only on a spiritual plane instead of an earthly one; and if God's purpose is to use those anciently favored people as the channels of his blessing In the future, why has there been so long delay? We answer. This is what the Scrip tures term The Mystery the matter which God did not reveal directly, either to Abraham or through any of the prophets. Indirectly he hinted at i i vin, tr. a hrnkam "tviw ed shall be as the stars of heaven, and as the sand of the seashore for multi tude." But Abraham did not discern. nor did others, that these tro illustra tions belonged, not to the same people, but to two different Israels. The earthly promises belonged to natural Israel. Eventually ajl mankind, bless ed under the Messianic reign, will be come Israelites of the seed of Abra ham. Thus Abraham's "seed shall be as the sand of the seashore for multi tude." And they must all have the faith of Abraham and his obedience, ere they can reach perfection as mem bers of his seed. First in the order of blessing will come the ancient worthies Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and all the prophets and holy ones of the past. These will be raised from the dead by the power of God not Imper fect and fallen, but perfect; fully up to all the glorious ideals of their minds aforetime. This will be their reward for having walked by faith and not by sight. Thus we read. Instad of be ing the fathers, they shall be the chil dren, whom Messiah will make princes in all the earth his representatives in power in rulership, in authority (Psalms xlv, 16). At that time the blessing shall return to Israel that his been taken from them for more than eighteen centuries God's special fa vor. Under their new covenant they shall be blessed; their eyes shall be opened; "they shall look upon him whom they pierced;" they shall mourn for him; they shall rejoice in him. They will say, This Is our ruler. We have waited for him, and he will save us (Zechariah xii, 10). Crimes Committed in Jesus' Name. With shame true Christians must admit that most atrocious crimes were committed in the name of Jesus during the "dark ages." Worse than that! The horrible misrepresentation of all that the name of Jesus stands for still continue. Witness, tor instance, the injustices practiced in the name of Christianity against the Jew in Rus sia for years past, ana in various na tlons In remoter times. Witness the fact also that only two months ago the so-called Christians of Roumania acted like veritable demons toward their Jewish neighbors. Well authen ticatd accounts tell that the jewisn cemetery was despoiled. Many of those buried within the two preceding months were dug up and the putrid nnirlad nnrnQoa thrntrn Ctn t V f t .nd in the door yards of their families. Can we wonder that the Jew has come to have a hatred for the word Christian and for the name jgsug? ,rv, Teens ns Is well known. is but another form of Joshua, which Rienifies Deliverer. The name Christ is the Greek equivalent for the word MeKslflh. Every Jew. rightly Informed respecting the character and the teach ings of Jesus, is bound to respect him and his immediate followers as amongst the grandest Jews that ever m. lved. They must art be Judged ac- teachings, so common amongst Chris- tians. And it should not oe rorgotten that while the masses of Christendom havfi misrepresented their teaching, doctrines and practices, there has been throughout the entire age a saintly j few who have closely followed in the looisieps 01 jeu. In my preaching I notjirge upon the Jews to become Christians; but I rmv to hold forth the Divine standard for them and to assist them to get reaoy ior me luiuiimcui ous promises which are theirs.

And its sal- vation from sin will bring it to the full perfection of human nature and to the full enjoyment of a world wide Eden. The spiritual seed of Abraham is to be composed of Mesisah and the Elect little flock of saintly footstep followers. The price of their exalta tion Is their consecration unto death and faithfulness to that vow.

At the early age of seven, Joash began a reign of forty years. He in- i herited the easy disposition of his I grandfather, Jehoshaphat, rather than t win ui ms granamorner, Athaliah. While Jehoida the priest, lived he was Induced to pay outward regard to the laws of the Lord hut on the death of the pontiff he lapsed into 1 the ways or the house of Ahab. Zecha- Hah, the son of Jehoiada. was killed by his orders, for having faithfully re proved his transgressions. During his reign, Hazael made an attack on Gath, and would have besieged Jeru salem had he not been bought off by a bribe, furnished from the treasuries of the temple. Later a small body of Syrians defeated an immense host of his people, who were abandoned bv God for their faithlessness to his cov enant. His good for Judah was not much nor lasting,- and friends and foes conspired against him, for he was killed by his own sen-ants. MRS. C. F. MENNINGER. CHCRC1I NOTICES.

Reynolds, of the Shawnee Agency, "and I believe that a good deal of farm land will change hands between now and next spring. The advertising value of the state fair has already been felt by us." There are now a great many work men employed In Topeka. Builders are rushing their work in order to complete their contracts before the winter weather seta In. Notwith standing this fact there are some men In the city out of work. This condition of affairs is due partially to the fact that Topeka has been advertised as experiencing what is almost a boom In building activity and the consequent influx of work men from other places. For the most part the men who are now out of work are not experts in their re spective spheres of labor. "There are probably more men em ployed in Topeka than there have been in a long time," said Mr. Harris of the State Free Employment bureau, "but it is a mistaken idea that there is now a big demand for more work ers." The reason that there Is a great army of workmen now employed In the city will be set forth in this col umn at a later date. Within a week or ten days the Kan sas Farmer company will have a new Goss special halftone magazine press in place, which they claim will be the biggest press in the state.

It will be controlled by men connected with the Concordia Dispatch Publishing company, who are also the proprietors of the Con cordia Engraving company. It Is said that the Topeka engraving plant is to be larger than that in Clay Center. Messrs. Southwick, Betts, Hoopes and Hemphill of Clay Center are interest ed in the new plant. The Ohio house at the corner of Fifth and Kansas avenue, belonging to Hook Brothers of Indiana, has been sold through George M. Noble Company to William May for the consideration of $4,250. Other sales reported by George M. Noble Company are: The five room cottage at 900 Jefferson street, the property of L. M. Frazier, to C. E. Yewell for $2,650; the C. A. O'Meara house at 630 Buchanan street to George Broyles for $2,000; a thirty acre farm south of Highland Park, owned by 3. Lukert to G. W. Elliott of Missouri for $6,500; an eighty acre farm in Osago county, the property of John Wile, to William Underdown for $4,000. The Shawnee agency has found busi ness to be brisk in the past week or two. "Following are sales reported by this firm: The Croco, eighty acre farm three miles from Topeka to J.

MAN YFACTORIES HERE People of the State Do Not Real ize the Number in City. Topeka Has Sptcial Advantages for Traveling Salesmen. "Jobbers and manufacturers of To peka hold the keys to the trade of ivansas, the southwest and the north' west," said a prominent manufacturer this week. "And the people of the state and even right here in Topeka ao noi Know or ail tne various Indus tries and commercial houses located here. A man went to the top floor of one of the new business buildings in the city, took a look over the city and remarked, 'I didn't know Topeka was so pig. I can see manufacturing con cerns and institutions which I didn't know were here.' Not a city In the state of Kansas has any better railroad facilities than has Topeka. The jobber or manufacturer in Topeka has the opportunity to ship east, north, south or west and no city is close to interfere with the Topeka territory. The retail man in western Kansas can mail in an order for a bill of goods and while he sleeps the goods are on the way and the morning finds them at the destination. Traveling salesmen make Topeka headquarters because of the splendid opportunity to get from their homes to every part of their territory. But yet Topeka people and many through out the state do not know of the vari ous industries and Jobbing houses lo cated in the Kansas capital. A man came in from a station well out on the Santa Fe recently, wander ed over the city all day In an effort to purchase a carload of a certain fruit. but did not know Topeka has a first- class brokerage company. Farmers Are Building. "While the building in the city may be a little quiet, the activity in the country is more than making up for it,'" said Paul Huycke, general man ager of the J. Thomas Lumber com pany. "This is one of the best indica tions we have that the farmers have a good crop. "It requires a good crop to stimu late building in the country and from what I can learn I believe there will be fully 80 per cent of a crop through out the state. "And they are getting busy, especial ly in the western portion of the state." BOWSER'S BARGAIN. He Captures an Antique Lonis XVI Sideboard. When Mr. Bowser walked into the house at 4 o'clock the other afternoon Mrs. Bowser's first thought was that he had come home ill. He didn't look it, however.

I'm ashamed that I did not remember It myself." "That's uall right, little one. Thirty five years ago today, and about this hour, we were sitting together in your father's house. All of a sudden I asked you to be mine, and you said you would." "But I didn't say so at once, did I?" she asked as a blush showed on her cheeks. "I guess you waited a minute or two before making me the happiest man on earth." "And you- haven't been sorry?" "I have thanked Heaven every day since, and shall 'til I die. This even ing we will go out to dinner, and then it's the theater. We'll just have a jolly time. Meanwhile.. I came home to say that I have purchased a trifling memento of the occasion something we can look at daily and recall those old days."- "Tou good man! What Is it?" "You couldn't guess in a hundred years, but I know you'll be tickled half to death. I was the most fortunate man in the world to get it. If I had been 15 minutes late it would have been gone." "Then it isn't jewelry?" "No." "Anything to wear?" "No." "Is it a patent rocking chair for me?" "No. Here it comes, and you won't have to do any more guessing!" A big truck had driven up and was backing to the curb. On it was a bungalow. At least, Mrs. Bowser took it for one and exclaimed: "Why we are not going camping in the winter, are we!" "Don't you know what it is?" "A bungalow, or something of that sort. Shall you set it up In the back yard "Hardly," laughed Mr. Bowser. "Come out and take a look at it."

I bought it at auction yesterday. There were 60 bidders, but I beat them all. What do you think of it as a souvenir of our engagement?" Before she could answer the boss truckman called out: "Now, then, how are we going to get this thing into the yard? I have just measured, and It won t pass through the gate by two feet." 'Then it must be lifted over the fence." All right, but you'll have to hire three more men to help lift, and if your fence breaks down you can't blame me. Mrs. Bowser made her escape into the house and sunk down in a chair and burst into tears. Mr. Bowser had tried to be good, but he had made a mess of it. Outside she could hear teams and antos stopping, and the crowd increasing, and the truck men swearing. Five more men were hired to help boost. Mr. Bowser waved his arms and shouted directions. Two policeman arrived and wanted to know what the devil was the matter. Several excited women living on the block wanted to know why some men in the crowd didn't have brains enough to ring for the ambulance. Up she goes! Boost her! There she is!" The famous sideboard rested on top of the fence for a moment, and then the fence gave way with a crash. Cheers from the enthusiastic patri ots. Swear words from the non-enthusi astic truckmen.

A civil engineer suggested that the house be moved out over the side board to solve the problem. A plumber suggested that if he were given a chance to stop a few leaks and send In his bill, the sideboard would move on its own accord. A woman with a small mutton roast in a big basket suggested that wings be attached and the thing be given a chance to fly. The boss truckman, suggested that the thing he left where it was till another day, when he would come with a band of experienced man and rope and tackle and "snake" her along. The two cops suggested that the crowd disperse, and went to pushing and clubbing to encourage it to do so. Amid the numerous suggestions Mr. Bowser entered the house to see what Mrs. Bowser might have to say. "Just a slight accident, you know," he said aa he noticed the tears in her eyes. "I give you my word the preci ous relic is not even scratched." "I'm I'm so sorry!" she said as she fell to weeping again. "Sorry! Sorry! What in thunder ails you? Isn't it a Louis XVI. sideboard?"

The State Journal Is a member of the Associated Press and receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or ganization lor the exclusive afternoon publication In Topeka. The news Is received In The State Jour nal building over wires for this sole pur pose. The Toledo Blade has a theory that Maine went Democratic as an adver tisement. Here's a strange kettle of fish. Miss tieneve has not as yet signed up for It vaudeville engagement. What else might have been expected? A. Chicago suffragette had a setto with a Chicago policeman the other night and the policeman got the worst of it. Topeka's business men are now talk ing of inaugurating a trade extension tour, the first one to he undertaken next Call. It's a good thing. Push it along. Undoubtedly, among the large num ber of Topekahs who have failed to register will be those who will protest the loudest against the way the elec tion goes. The T. W. and Y. M. C. A. White Elephant has been started on the run. Everybody should help the good work along by giving the beast a substan tial financial jab. Here's a terrible slap on the ankle for Isadora Duncan, who tries to in terpret classical music, such as a Beethoven symphony, with rythmic dancing. Professor 6. H. Clark, of the University of Chicago, styles her ef forts as "aesthetic sacrilege." Colonel Roosevelt was hob-nobbing In New York state the other day with Representative Dwight. Mr. Dwight was the Republican whip In the house of representatives at the last session, and on one occasion during its pro gress, he refused to invite the Repub lican insurgents to a Republican caucus. The opportunity is now presented for the new government of Venzuela to ehow whether or not it is of the right eort. The international court of arbi tration has ordered It to pay an Amer ican claim of $46,867 with interest and $7,000 costs. Venzuela has frequently been ordered in the past to pay claims but not with much success. "What has becomeof Walter Well man?" asks a Constant Subscriber Hot knowing, this paper cannot say. It is to be presumed, however, that he Is busily engaged writing magazine urticles on his famous balloon trip, (Which the discerning Ed Howe de scribes as a journey from Atlantic City to the North Carolina coast by way of Newfoundland. With hogs and corn cheaper, the price of bacon continues to go up. The explanation is that hogs suitable for transformation into bacon are unusual ly scarce, and that bacon will not be cheaper until another large supply of uch hogs Is raised from the cheaper corn. When it comes to explanations, the packers always have a reasonably plausible one handy. There's always a chance for things to go awry. And if the state fair bonds Bo not carry, the people of Topeka and Shawnee county will have tossed away a golden opportunity to develop their community and advertise it to the iworld as wide-awake place that does things. The great fair held here this fall meant much to Topeka and Shaw nee county. A greater fair next year Will mean much more. If the local coal supply should fall because the local concerns dealing in coal cannot get it from the coal fields, (will the citizens of Topeka, or a few of them, rise in their wrath and demand that the local coal companies be driven cut of business? That's what some of them suggest as proper treatment for the local gas company every time there Is a temporary failure or shortage in the natural eras supply. Attorneys for all the large railroads of the country are holding conferences to decide whether or not they shall bring proceedings to test the constitu tionality of some of the provisions of the new railroad law passed at the last session of congress. Surely this united action on the part of the railroad at torneys combining in this fashion must be a violation of the Sherman anti trust law. When the railroad freight agents held a conference to decide a course of procedure in the matter of freight rates, their action was held to be contrary to this law. Every once In a while some "smarty" arises and remarks that Englishmen have no sense of humor, and they point to the Jokes of London's Punch as be ing flat and pointless. In refutation f such contentions may be cited a pictorial commentary on Mr. Roose velt's book, African Game Trails, which recently appeared in Punch. One of the pictures is labelled Kermit's Wart-hog. It shows the animal dressed In the riding habiliments of a lady of fashion and- seated on a white horse that is traveling along lit John Gilpin speed. The picture illustrates this de scription of Kermit's experience, de tiled by the colonel in his book in the following words: "He ran Into her on horseback after a sharp chase of a mile or two, and shot her from the saddle." A SATURDAY SERMON. Woe to that man by whom the offense cometh! St. Matthew XVIII 7. Among the offenses to which human ity is prone, and which Is included In the condemnation of Christ In the words of the text, is the spreading of scandal. In fact, in some of the translations of the Bible the word "scandal" is used instead of the words "the offense" In the passage from St. Matthew as quo ted above. At any rate, there is noth ing quite so despicable as scandal, and no class of individuals are so unworthy of respect or attention as the scandal mongers. They are without number, too, In the world of today, Just as they always have been since the beginning of time. They are as serpents, winding their sinuous and noiseless way through life and covering with slime everything and everybody that comes in contact with them. And it seems to be a particu lar delight for some people to utter defamatory talk concerning others. Some of it may be based on facts, but most of it Is manufactured out of fancy. Some of it is spoken heedlessly, without thought as to the damage it will do. Much of It, though. Is uttered maliciously. But heedless or malicious it is all outrageous and cannot be criti cized too severely. Perhaps there would not be so much of this thing if people, generally, were not apparently ever eager to hear what the spreaders of scandal have to say How many kind of pleasure can be brought to any one by hearing others defamed is something of a mystery. But the scandal monger finds ready ears for his sorry tales. These ears are usually connected with tongues that re peat them. And between the individ ual who starts a scandalous story on its rounds and the one who repeats it there is not much to choose Inasmuch as everybody, almost, Is more or less given to these unpardon able practices, the remedy would seem to lie in each individual starting out to reform him or herself in this par ticular. A good rule to follow would be to start no stories either based on fact or fiction that will hold any one up to shame, and if such stories are brought to your attention by the un thinking or the malicious do not ped dle them on. If the doings and sayings of acquaintances and friends must be spoken of, why wouldn't it be a good plan to talk of their virtues. Most of them have a few and they are all In teresting. Their vices harm them quite enqjigh without their being published to the world, and exaggerated each time they are retold. LEGISLATIVE PAY. Other questions of importance, be sides the selection of men for state, county and congressional offices, come up for decision by the voters on election day. The most important one, locally, relates to the proposed issue of $50,000 in bonds to aid in the develop ment of the state fair. B'-": one that is important to the people over the en tire state concerns the amending of the state's constitution so that more pay can be given to the members of the state's legislature. Some people have an idea that this- proposition is important only to the legislators of the future who will be benefited by it, in case the voters give it favorable consideration. That Is far from being the fact. It is important to the people of, the whole state. Re gardless of the generally high charac ter and ability of the men who now get into the legislature, it is most rea sonable to assume that if the legisla tive pay is Increased to something like it ought to be, men Of higher caliber and ability will be encouraged to seek legislative office. It is almost ridiculous to expect business and professional men to close up their shops to all practical pur poses and give their undivided atten tion to the essential work of making needed state laws for a paltry sum of $3 a day for three months' work. It is scarcely enough to pay their ex penses while they are in Attendance at the session -f the legislature, let alone paying the necessary expenses of their primary and election campaigns for office. The increase proposed in the amendment, making a legislator's pay $500 for a regular session and $100 for a special session, is none too large. If a legislator's service to his state is not worth that much, it la not worth anything. The voters are always quick to complain when any of the legisla tive work is done in a slip-shod fash ion, as has been much of it in the past few years. But they really can not expect any better work as long as they are only willing to pay slip-shod wages. This matter has been up before the voters on- other occasions, only to be turned down by them. If they turn it down again, they, alone, will be the losers. THE TRUE VALUE OF MONEY, "Money is worth while, and we al"l want a due portion of it, so long as it means increased fulness of life," writes E. S. Martin, in Harper's Magazine fof November. "To live in a rich country is an advantage because life is usually fuller there, and opportunities are greater and more accessible. But money is only valuable as a means of prosecuting to better advantage this experiment of human life. It by get ting money you get more and better life, you are ahead on the transaction, but if you devote your life to getting money and get it and nothing else, you have made a bad bargain. Your life was your great capital, and you have swapped it for a perishable thing, which you can't take with you when you lay your life down. So let us not stake our whole lives on making money. Let us make some by all means If we can earn It, save it, add to the world's capital and our own; but keep It where it belongs the inci dent of work, not the end Of living or even of work. "A very moderate Income, differing according to circumstances, time and place, suffices to bring within the reach of any wise man the most Im portant opportunities that life offers. Education nowadays and in this coun try Is easily come by. The poverty that grinds and blights and dwarfs seems fairly easy to avoid. Who is diligent and temperate and is blessed with health and fair mental capacity ought to get money enough for hl needs and his development in this country. Because money is the con venient measure of so many sorts of effort we-are apt to think of It as the great end of human endeavor. But that Is a fallacy. There are great men who never get much money, and pretty small men who get a great deal. It depends a good deal On what they try for and what they are willing to pay for it." JOURNAL ENTRIES It's the vocal teachers who make good money out of poor voices. Clothes may not make the man, but they help him to put on a good front. Experience wouldn't be so costly to some people if they would only put it to god use. Forehandedness pays, but not to the extent of counting your chickens be fore the eggs are even laid. A man seldom has any trouble con vincing himself that those who differ from him are in the wrong.

JAYHjtWKER JOTS The Florence Bulletin remarks that some automobiles are so loud it can't see why they need a horn. The cow has not yet accomplished the old feat of jumping over the moon says the Lawrence World, but butter seems to have no trouble in making the hurdles. When the Lawrence World read about a Salina barber dying from ptomaine poisoning as the result of eating onions, it remarked: A man sometimes gets his just deserts. A discovery has been made by the Lawrence World to the effect that the fellow who cannot finish breakfast in time for church seldom has any diffi culty in getting through dinner in time for the ball game. There can be no doubt about the edi tor of the Jamestown Optimist being a prudent man. He says he does not like to loan anything for fear he might make a mistake and loan it to the fellow he borrowed it from. The Concordia Kansan can see a couple of advantages In being in the penitentiary. As it explains there's no wrestling for the price of the next meal and one does not have to dodge the landlord when the rent is due. Optimistic. Indeed, is the Garden City Telegram. It looks confidently to the day when there will not only be irri gation and complete agricultural prog ress in the extreme southwest counties, but adequate railroad facilities also. The cabbage crop is short in this country, and the storm In Cuba has ruined vast quantities- of tobacco, and because of these conditions it seems to the Emporia Gazette that the man who wants to smoke this winter will have to use mullin leaves. A colored man had joined the church and was bekig examined by his pastor as to his conduct, relates the Salina Journal. "Jerry, have you stolen any chickens since joining the church? in quired the pastor. "No, sah," replied Jerry. "Any pigs, or turkeys?" And again came "No, sah," from Jerry. "You are doing well," complimented the pastor. "I think your chances for heaven are assured." "Mandy,". said Jerry to his wife, when they got out of hearing distance of the pastor, "if he had mentioned ducks I'd a been a lost niggah, suah. GLOBE SIGHTS. From the Atchison Globe. You are a success if you are right half the time. People are very picky; don't give them a chance at you. Every man carries a white feather in his pocket, and occasionally shows it. After a man has passed 30 and a woman 50, they hear fewer noises at night. It is always an agent's business to coax you to do something you don't want to do. A reputation as a fighter might be a good thing if you could get it with out fighting. Is there really any excuse for French words on the menu cards in restaurants? Occasionally a man is affable who isn't running for office and hasn't anything to sell. Some people are so good they com mit little sins Just to have something over which to repent. When a man Is telling his experi ences, you can't tell him one that will take his mind off of his Every man who owns an automobile will lie a little about the machine's ability to climb hills. The embarrassing moment you hear about really seems like about nair an hour to the embarrassed one. When you pay out a dollar, do you growl with it, indicating that you are in love with it? That's a poor way. It is said a certain school teacher Is going crazy because the common speech of the people is so ungram matical. You needn't be very important to get a letter from a congressman; not much more important than the letter you get from the congressman. A man who is a great stay-at-home attended a party the other night. "I'll bet," said a girl, "that his feet are surprised because they haven't slip pers on." It is said that an Atchison man is so stingy that he half-starves himself every fall in order to keep up with the shrinkage in his last winter's un derclothes. When a man discovers that he doesn't amount to much, and never will, we have a notion he is as dis gusted as the woman who discovers that she is getting whiskers. KANSAS COMMENT TELLING THE TRUTH. This paper has no use for the per son in whose system the germs of truth have no abiding place. We care not whether the man be a Republican or a Democrat, or to what faction or lodge or church he belongs. If he re fuses to tell the truth in politics as well as business, we are going to smite him. The man on our ticket who ma liciously circulates falsehoods to tear down somebody else will get no sup port from us. The man on the other ticket who does the same thing is go ing to be hammered. When a candi date goes out and deliberately lies about honest men in order to bolster up his waning cause and maliciously tears down the character of good and tried and faithful public servants, he de serves not a particle of support. He should be branded from one end of his bailiwick to the other as a liar and an untrustworthy person. When the law, and figures in black and white, and common fairness and decency, are against a fellow, and he persists in his dirty and untruthful work, he should be shunned by all decent people. The label of church creed or political party is no defense for the lair. Osborne Farmer. THE FARMERS'" BUSY SEASON. Reports from all over the state show that weather and soil conditions are most ideal for fall work on the farm. For farmers and town gardeners this is the busy season. In October and November the gathering of Indian oorn, kaffir corn and all the late grains will continue. Then comes the shuck ing of the corn, the threshing of the small grains and the hauling to thg cities or the granaries on the farm. This is the season, also, for the sow ing of many of next year's crops. Im mense areas are now being plowed and sowed in wheat. Alfalfa sowing is aHo an important part of the fall work. In some counties in the western part of the state the increase In alfalfa acreage is 5 to 6 per cent over last year's acreage. The demand for this crop is exceeding the supply. Nearly all the large towns in the state have alfalfa mills that are demanding more alfalfa from the farmers to fill their orders, and they are willing to pay high prices for It. It will become one of the lead ing crops in all Kansas counties in a few years. El Dorado Republican. FROM OTHER PENS A TEST OF MEN. In their overwhplmino A..,, a the Minnesota settlers are giving to the nation an example of manliness and that stoic hardihood upon which the greatness of America was built. Their nomes ana cities are destroyed. The work of years is reduced to ashes-. But they march up to the relief trains, get a, inik ana an ax ana will begin life anew.

Tt in a spirit that is essential Jo the building ui a.ny uommunweauh ana to the Hap piness of mankind. In their simple philosophy these woodsmen are the wisest of the wise. How silly It is. in deed to admit any kind of defeat. All that a man can obtain from his ma terial wealth is food, shelter and clothes. His other asset Is peace of mind and joy in living. The forest fire can not destroy either. It devolves upon him to destroy them, if thev are to be lost. St. Antonio Express. "STOP, LOOK, LISTEN." In a decision of the United States court Of appeals In the case of the xsew york Central vs. Maldment Is a point which should be noted by auto mobile operators and owners. The fa miliar rule, "Stop. look, listen." the court says, is more binding upon the cnauneur man the driver of a horse. An automobile can be stopped near a track without danger, while a horse might be frightened by the locomotive. According to this decision, chauffeurs who dash over a crossing without look ing for approaching trains are guilty of contributory negligence. If they more often used ordinary caution the probability of fatalities at crossings would be gTeatly lessened. This decision, however, is in no sense a defense of grade crossings. The aboli tion of these deathtraps is necessary to insure absolute safety. The signals of watchmen may be misunderstood by drivers who are not inclined to take risks. Public sentiment, while strong ly opposed to the creation of new grade crossings, is not powerful enough to abolish the old ones on -short notice: and the prospect is that it will be many years before all roads are carried over or under railway tracks. Providence Journal. PEOPLE WITH WHIMS. They are in the way. They delay the procession. They want things that nobody else Is thinking about. They trump up desires out of their imagina tion, and then are discontented be cause they are not gratified. It is the duty of everybody who wants to be fair to the surrounding world to ask him self and herself, too am I whimsical. There is such a thing as healthy dis content, but a whim is an unhealthy one. It Is a fancy trumped up out of a mere conceit, and selfishness is the impulse that pushes it forth. So the whimsical person is out of place, and vet he wants to make himself the cen ter of all things. Everybody must bow to his caprice or he makes himself ugly and becomes a nuisance whom everybody tries to avoid. But the other kind of a person, who values what he has more than he im agines what he lacks, is always wel come. We can understand how a steadily reasonable husband can get along with a whimsical wife or vice versa, but how serenity and Joy can prevail when both are whimsical, which we have sometimes seen to be the case, one can not surmise. There is where a whim crawls in like a snake into Eden. Keep it out. Ohio State Journal. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. From the Chicago News. The fortune hunter is apt to find game scarce. A girl becomes conceited about the time she has her first beau. The man who tells all he knOws doesn't make the world any wiser. The wise wife makes her husband believe that she believes all he tells her. It's an impossibility for the right man to kiss a girl against her will. And some men seem to think the only way to make their mark in the world is with a hammer. The honey bee gets a lot of credit for its industry, but no one has a word of praise for the every-busy housefly. Occasionally a girl bellves so much of what a young man tells her during courtship that her capacity for belief Is exhausted soon after marriage. BREEZES. Have you ever heard the voices of the breezes in the woodlands? They are like the cooings sweet of babes, to mother-ears most dear. Or the chucklings of the innocents at jokes they heard in heaven, Unforgotten in the little time they have been with us here. Have you ever seen the footprints of the breezes on the waters? They are fleeting, crinkled ripples o'er the river and the lake. Like unto the quick impressions that the Dames, ty their stepping So unsteadily with dainty feet, on hearts of parents make. Have you ever felt the touches of the breezes on your forehead? They are like the soft caresses of a baby's dimpled hand, That can smooth away our wrinkles and can soothe us in our worries By a magic in Its gentleness we do not understand. In your meetings with) the breezes, did there come to vou the knowladefl They are like our tiny toddlers and are cauaren or tne airi And that like our happy, careless, play ful, fond and cherished babies, By their mystery and subtle charm they make the earth more fair? George Owen Koch, In the New York Press. IHE EVENING STORY Miss Brejetta's Halloween. (By Susanne Glenn.) "Miss Brejetta," called Squire Brown, beckoning to the trim little figure passing his gate. "Miss Brejetta, hadn't you better decide to take the school again after Christmas? The new teacher doesn't seem to give satis faction, some way, and the folks are all asking for you. You'd better say, now, that you will take it and have that over with." "Well," answered Miss Brejetta, hes itating, "maybe I will. Squire Brown. I'll think it over." As Miss Brejetta walked homeward over the sunburned grass and under the crimsoning maples her thoughts were busy. Yes, she would doubtless be better with the school to look after than if she were alone In her quiet cottage. It had seemed at first when her mother left her that she could never stand the loneliness of coming home every night to the empty house. But now she was beginning to think that she could not endure the lonely aimlessness of these uninterrupted days and nights. Tears dropped over Miss Brejetta's delicate, spirited face in a way never guessed of by her friends. From his vine covered porch Rich ard Dayton, her life long friend and nearest neighbor, watched her ap proach with the tender Interest he felt in all her doings. How dainty and sweet she looked; so frail and in competent, yet so supremely self sufficient! Almost as far back as he could remember he had longed to care for her, to protect her, to let his love show Itself, yet never in any smallest way had she allowed him to serve or approach her. This strong man, capable of mak ing the world yield him his honest rights, stood irresolute and defeated before the sprightly indifference of this pretty but independent woman. Unwilling to allow her to pass without a word, the man sauntered to his own front gate in time to intercept her. As Miss Brejetta, seeing him approach, dried her eyes covertly, while there was a little added em phasis to her sugar coated sharpness with which she always treated him, born of her fear lest he should see upon her face traces of her recent weakness. "Just been pulling my last beans," remarked Dayton, displaying his earth stained hands smilingly. "Won't you let me fix your for you this even ing. Miss Brejetta?" He glanced over the dividing fence at his neighbor's garden. "Indeed, no, thank you," refused Miss Brejetta emphatically; "I shall enjoy doing them myself! It is just play to care for that tiny garden, and it gives me something to be interest ed in, you know." "It must be lonely for you now," remarked the man with solicitude that made Miss Brejetta stiffen with resentment. "Do you never reel ner vous at night all alone in the house?" "Whv should I be arraia? Ana, besides, Mr. Dayton, what cannot be cured must be endured. I am alone in the world, and so must make the best of it." Dayton longed with his whole heart to tell her of a solution of her diffi culties that would bring her a devot ed protector, but the tilt of her pretty head warned him to desist, and he merelv suseested lamely: "You know my housekeeper would be elad to eto over and sleen in the nouse, and I really think you ought to have her. Miss Brejetta, with so many tramps as there are about Just now. Won't vou let her come tonight, any way? The boys will be playing pranks that mav be unpleasant tor you. Miss Brejetta smiled serenely and exasDeratinglv into his pleading face, "The boys will do nothing to annoy me. I am sure. Mr. Dayton," she re marked nfisslne on to her own gate. But when her own front door had been closed with quiet precision. Miss Brejetta's calmness vanished and she flung herself with angry and undig nified haste into an easy chair. "I wish he would stop it," she cried stormily. "I will not have htm pity ins- me and looking after me all the time! Now I shall have to gather those horrid beans or he will never rcau nesterina- me about them; can lust imagine the remarks that would be made in this town if I al lowed him to make my garden!" And Miss Brejetta, having eaten a hasty supper, pinnned up her spotless linen skirt, put on ner siouiesi gar den gloves and. Inwardly consumed with wrath, sought her diminutive bean natch. "I had better get It done with," she whisnered to herself after the fashion of Innelv DeoDle. "because it will bo too wet in the morning and too warm H iiTi rtr the dav. But it lust makes me furious to be breaking my back out here when I haven't even cut tne leaves of that new magazine yet." The sunbaked earth seemed loath to part with the vines it had so care fully nurtured tnrougn long motns, and Miss Brejetta's strength was not great. Her own cosy piazza Decs oned enticingly, but the gleam of a cia-ar end on the neighboring porch Viplfl her to her task. In the welcome dusk she stole into the house, barring doors ana win rtnws rarefullv. "You are tired," she cried defiantly at her reflection In tne nan mirrior, "and vou just hate gardening. You are lonelv, too': and you know you nearly die of fright every night of your life. Why don't you own up to it and let people help you when they want to,?"- The nearest neighbor had watched Mis Brejetta at her bean pulling with almost angry impatience. "I wonder why she does it cer tainly not because she enjoys It. And she splits her kindlings in the shed so I cannot see her as if I could not hear! And she locks the doors and windows and nearly smothers herself these sultry nights. "I honestly believe," he mused, "that she would be fond of me if aha allowed herself to be. She ha al ways managed pretty well by herself so far, but there will come a time when she will not be so self-sufficient. And, by Jove, I almost wish some thing would happen to take down her pride a little, poor girl!" For a long time, he sat quietly thinking. Then Richard Dayton, one of the most respectable and highly honored man of his town, did a strange thing. Up in the close, clustered attle he stole with a tiny flickering candle for light, and when he came down noise lessly, he carried some dark, shape less garments over his arm. Long after Miss Brejetta had re tired she lay awake thinking miser ably.. Scarcely discernible footsteps seemed haunting the darkness, but she comforted herself thinking tt was boys on their midnight Halloween pranks. Unaccountable night sounds caused her to shrink nervously, but at last she slept in fitful snatches. Suddenly she sat up, every sense alert. The vibration of the old brass knocker still echoed through the hall. For a moment she cowered among the pillows, then the thought of some one in trouble nerved her to action. Tremblingly she lighted a lamp, slipped on some clothing and hurried to the door. Without waiting for her courage to fall, she slipped the bolt, swung back tne door and let the light shine across a vacant porch! But down by the gate stood a slouching figure with hat pulled low, "Mr. Dayton Richard!" called Miss Brejetta faintly, almost dumb with terror. "Here!" called a familiar voice re assuringly, and the nearest neighbor sprang over the end of the porch rail and took the lamp from her trembling hand. Drawing her out to the shadowed piazza and into his arms, he held her breathlessly. "I heard the bell," he explained, "and feared vou would be frightened! See. dear, it is that strawman Just a Halloween joke! But you do need me. don't vou. Brejetta?" "Oh," she sobbed, her face against his coat. Then with intoxicating sweetness she surrendered com pletely. "Dick, I want you to hoe the gar den, and split the kindling, and do the whole miserable business! And I perfectly hate living alone, and I have been lonely and afraid, and I'm glad I've been scared into my senses!" "And do you love me a little, Bre jetta?" anxiously. "Do you suppose," she cried In ex asperated tenderness, "that I should have used you so shamefully if I had not loved you? Oh, you dear, stupid man!" (Copyrighted 1910 by Asso ciated Literary Press.) Oxford Considers Reform. Oxford university, like the house of lords, is debating how to reform it self. Like the lords, also, it no longer doubts that unless it reforms Itself it will be reformed from without. The head of the movement Is Lord Curzon, the most vigorous chancellor the uni versity haa had in recent times. Lord Curzon believes that Oxford and Cam bridge are too much given to classics and turn out too many young men who have general culture without snecial efficiency. Ever since he be came chancellor he has-been agitating for reform and he has persuaded the hebdomadal council, one of the three governing bodies of Oxford, to declare for less classics and more practical in struction. This declaration comes as a sen sational surprise to many and especial ly to the: old-fashioned graduates or the university. These had assured themselves that whatever the modern spirit might do in other institutions of learning it would never weaken tne position of Greek, Latin, history and mathematics in Oxford. They argued that the most important thing in life is character, and that general culture is necessary to character. They as serted that whoever specialized before adequately generalizing never would go so far in the world as the student who patiently followed the old course. Lord Curzon and tne neoaomaaaj council decided, however, that al though this standpoint looked right In the abstract, as a matter of fact Ox ford was turning out students poorly equipped to compete with the special ly trained graduates of more practical nations. Hence commerce and econ omics come up, while Greek goes down at Oxford and mathematics and his tory move a little aside to make room for technical sciences and modern languages. Morever, steps have been taken to enable poor boys to go to Oxford. The wealthy boys are said to be in mortal fear of getting their hands dirty. They think, for example, that no gen tleman could throw a little coal on the fire. It Is believed that if some poor boys can be sent to Oxford It will have a tendency to pull the high-flying students down to earth. The. hebdomadal council is the smallest of the governing bodies at Oxford. The congregation Is next in size,' and the convocation is the larg est of all. Lord Curzon wishes to re form these three and, difficult as the task is. it seems as if the former vice roy of India might succeed. If he fails parliament may undertake the task. Chicago News. A Melancholy Man. Lord Hannen was badly hoaxed on one occasion by a Juryman, who pleaded to be excused because he was "deeply Interested in a funeral at which it was his desire to be present." "Oh, certainly," was the courteous re ply of tHe judge, and the sad, melancholic-looking man left the court.

Letters From a Successful Business Woman to Her Niece. VII. Dear Jean That natty little sam ple of cheviot that you sent me cer tainly ought to make an ideal office suit. Yes, I do like it very much bet ter than the fawn-colored corduroy. I think the gentleman who said "a word to the wise is sufficient" must have had you in mind for hi3 title role. While we are on the subject of clothes, I want to tell you a little ex perience that I had yesterday. Ive been wanting a good seamstress to do some plain sewing for me. Last night I heard of one and hustled right down to see her, because I was told she was pretty hard to get hold of. She was, all right. When I asked her for a week sometime this month she said. "I'm afraid that would be quite impossible. I have every day taken." I said, "Well, I'll be willing to wait a little longer, What's the earliest you can possibly do for me?" Then she sort of blushed and stam mered, as if afraid I wouldn't believe her, and said, "Well, to tell the truth, I have all my time engaged for a year and a half." What do you think of that, niece? She charges a dollar and a half a day and she does only plain sew ing. She has never advertised in any way and yet her time is spoken for for a year and a half ahead. Can you beat It? I talked with one of her customers and she says it's because the seam Btress is a woman in a thousand. "She does only plain sewing doesn't dressmake at all, you know but she is worth every cent of the money be cause everything she does Is always right. Tou don't have to watch her. you don't have to worry about her work, and you never have to rip out anything." I know another seamstress in this city a medium good worker who charges only one dollar and a quarter twenty-five cents less than this woman and yet hasn't half the work she wants. That's the difference between doing work so-so. and doing it right. That's the difference between getting your dictation all right except two or three misspelled words and three or four commas omitted, and getting your dictation RIGHT. That's often the difference between hanging onto a Job at ten dollars a week, and having the job hang onto you at three times ten. I think the story of that sewing woman ought to be told at every busi ness college, and every other kind of college, for that matter, in the coun try. If I didn't have too much else on my hands I almost think I'd go around telling It. Yes, I know I'm a regular crank Joan. But I've always had an idea that the reason cranks are called cranks is because they are what make the world go 'round. So I don't mind that title. Laugh at me if you want to, but please don't forget that woman whose work was Right with a capital R. As ever. YOUR "QUEER OLD" AUNT.

It's expensive to your storehouse of strength and health and beauty. There's only two reasons who you do it and they are not REAL reasons. We accept your Family Wash and Iron Flat Prices 5c-Ib. That spoils your first reason: It Is not expensive. The other reason is because you're afraid of laundries In gen eral. There you are wrong again. Could your clothes re 4 ceive better care than when washed in pure, fresh, soft water and mild, harmless soap? Don't you think that our modern method of gently loosening and rinfcing out the dirt beats rubbing the life out of them on a corrugated washboard? Don't you think they'll last longer, when dried in the warm, fresh air of our Sry rooms than when whipping on a clpthes line? The Mutual is not the kind of a laundry you're thinking of; it's a new kind of a laundry -a laundry of today, not yesterday. Send us your family wash just once as an experiment.
