TWO CENTS. rcr tm mbl h n in n in m. m h UNDER NEW FLAG. President Taft Passes Out of U. S. Territory. Attends a Banquet in the City of Panama. EASES THEIR MINDS. He Tell the Citizens of the Isthmian Republic That They Need Hare No Fear of Annexation. Panama, Nov. 17. President Taft will sail for home today delighted at the progress being made in the construc tion of the canal and with the cheers of Panamans ringing in his ears. The president's speech made last night at the dinner given in his honor by Pres ident Arosemana and in which he ridi culed the report that the United States was contemplating the annexation of Panama was published this morning: and excited earnest appreciation- of the people here. Mr. Taft will embark on the cruiser Tennessee at Colon at 6 o'clock tonight for Charleston. He will stop at Guan tanamo. Cuba, Saturday afternoon for a brief Inspection of the American na val base. This morning Mr. Taft looked over the Pacific division of the canal and from a tug examined the completed section. This is the president's fifth visit to the Isthmus, and his popularity among the natives and the canal workers is every where manifested. Just to Bhow him special honor the men turned in yesterday and broke all division records for the laying of con crete at Gatun dam. At the Gatun locks 4,435 cubic yards of concrete were placed and at the spillway 540 cubic: yards were laid down, making a total of 4,975 for the day. This Information was conveyed to the president in a message signed "The Men," and which stated that the record work was done In appreciation of Mr. Tatt's visit. On the way home the president will dictate his general message for the ap proaching session of congress, having read the reports of all departments during the voyage. At the Banquet. Panama, Nov. 17. President Taft hap effectually disposed of the report that the United States was likely to annex Panama. At a dinner given in his honor by President Arosemena and attended by 200 officials, diplomats and mer chants, Mr. Taft aroused the greatest enthusiasm when he declared the Amer ican people would feel utterly dishonor ed in annexing Panama, unless some conduct on the part of the Panama people left no other course. This con tingency Mr. Taft was sure would never arise. The president arrived at Panama from Culebra, after spending the day in the great cut, where he' was sur rounded oftentimes with giant shovels, puffing drills and hurrying dirt trains, while occasional distant blasts sent up tons of rocks. The recent landslides were visible but they were in no wise disturbing to the president or to Colonel tJoethals, the latter saying they will be taken care of as they occur, until the degree of wall slope prevents a re currence. The president reviewed trie marines at Camp Elliott, later hearing griev ance committees who. asked for an in crease in pay. This, however, is not likely to be granted, because the wages of the men are already higher, and the cost of living much lower than in the United States. Immediately on his arrival in Panama, the president proceeded to the American legation where he was called on by President Arosemena. Mr. Taft return ed the call at the palace and then pro ceeded to the banquet. After an address of cordial welcome by the Panama president. President Taft said: The President's Speech. "President Arosemena and my friends of Panama, I am glad to accept your hospitality. As once in the case of Mexico, so now in the case of Panama, I ventured to violate the customary limitation upon the movements of the president of the United States by leav ing the soil of my own country to come beneath the flag and protection of a friendly neighbor. "The birth of the republic of Panama and the peculiar interest which th-i United States has had since that birth in. Panama's welfare and prosperity, have found a common cause in tli'j construction of the Panama canal. The treaty between the two countries mak-- the United States the guaranteer or the Panama republic, and therefore, a sense, the guardian of the liberties of her people secured by its constitu tion. "Our responsibility, therefore, for your government requires us closely to observe the course of conduct by tho.e selected as the officials of your gov ernment 'after they are selected, and to insist that they be selected accord ing to law. "All this makes us especially inter ested in what is done in your govern ment, but this relation neither calls for nor permits annexation. We are here to construct, maintain, operate and de fend the world canal which runs through the heart of your country and you have given us the necessary sov ereignty and jurisdiction over that pnrt of your country occupied by the :m il to enable us to do this ef fectively. Knough Responsibility. "We do not wish any further re sponsibility in respect to your govern ment than is necessary in the carrying out of our purpose to construct and maintain this canal. We have no de sire to add to the territory under o'i Jurisdiction, except as the operation of the canal may require it. "We have guaranteed your integrity r-s a republic, and for us to annex ter ritory would he to violate that guar antee and nothing would justify it on "ur part so long as Panama performs i. r part under the treaty. 'I wish to make this "statement as 'niphntic as possible, because irre sponsible persons, without the slightest foundation in fact, have started a ru mor that my visit to the isthmus is for trie purpose of promoting annexation v hen nothing could be further frori the truth. "Panama cannot be too prosperous too heaithv. too strong a government for toe United States, and I know I spepk the unanimous voice of the peo ple of the 1 United States when 1 say that they would be most reluctant to have to take over the responsibility of government beyond the canal zone, and would feel utterly dishonored in so do ing unless there was some conduct on the part of the Panaman people which left them no other possible course, "t am glad to say that there is not the slightest indication or probability that the Panaman people will ever pur sue a policy which would require such a change in the present most satisfac tory relations between the two re publics." RIOTING RESUMED Striking Garment Workers in Chicago Renew Disturbance. Attack Strikebreakers and Are Clubbed by Police. Chicago. Nov. 17 Riots by striking garment workers broke out anew today in several parts of the city after a lull of several days. About 300 strikers watted at the foot of Gault Court, the home of many Italians, for hours this morning and when the residents, employed In many instances as strike breakers, appeared to take street cars for their places tif employment, the crowd attacked them. Police from a nearby station used clubs to break up the disturbance. Many of the strike breakers were girls. Five hundred men and women gath ered at Halstead and West Adams streets on the West side and with blasts from horns visited several of the nearby clothing shops and were dis persed only after rough handling oy the police. UPPERS TO BE LOWER. Question or Pullman Kates Put Up to Commerce Commission. Washington, Nov. 17. Reform of sleeping car abuses by a government requirement that a less toll shall be exacted for an upper berth than for a lower is expected by students of rail road problems to be the eventual out come of proceedings now under way before the interstate commerce com mission. The three cases of Loftus against the Pullman company along with the sepa rate cases of the state of Indiana, Oklahoma, Kansas and Arkansas against the Pullman company will be heard before Interstate Commerce Commissioners, Lane and Clark at Chi cago on November 30. Complaint was riled today by the Memphis, Tenn., freight bureau, the Dinswarnger company and George I. Drew Glass company of Memphis with the interstate commerce commission against the St. Louis and San Fran csico and other railroads, alleging that the freight rates on plate glass and rough ribbed glass carried from Mis souri to Tennessee were unjust and in favor of Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago and Richmond. Kates Will He Reduced. Chicago, Nov. 17. Rates on Pull man berths will be reduced by the Pullman company in practically all the territory where the cars of the concern travel. This is the assurance which the offi cers of the company have given to the interstate commerce commission. Although no action has been taken by the company toward establishing lower rates, this conclusion was reached by the directors informally at the annual meeting of the company. No further opposition will be offered to the principle laid down by the inter state commerce commission in its re cent order that there should be a dif ferential in the rates for uppers and lowers. The actual reduction of the rates, however, depends on the action of the interstate commerce commission on its rehearing of the evidence in the Loftus case, which has been enjoined pending a rehearing and the consideration of additional evidence, the commission ordered reductions in the upper berths and lesser cuts in the charges for low ers, except to Chicago WHATWTc. t.

Attorney General Jackson Quotes Senator Bourne. Oregon Senator Tells How Will of People Is Registered. So many people have inquired of the State Journal lately regarding the Oregon plan of electing United States senator and have indulged in specula tion regarding the present Kansas plan, that an explanation of the two laws is timely." Already the Kansas senatorial fight of 1912 is felt in political discus sions and plans. John Dawson, attorney general-elect, in an interview today, gave the follow ing explanation of the present Kansas law for the election of United States Senator: The Present Kansas Plan. It should be remembered that a United States senator is now elected In Kansas by receiving a majority of the votes of the senators and representa tives itting in joint session of the state legislature, and the state constitution gives a representative to each county in the state having 250 votes. The com plaint that a great and populous coun ty in the eastern part of the state has only a fraction of the influence of a western county In nominating a United tetates senator at the primary is only a criticism of the state constitution which gives each sparsely settled county an equal voice in the legislature j with the thickly populated counties; and it was to preserve that power to I the western counties which they are entitled to under the constitution that prompted the legislature to enact this peculiar provision concerning the nomi- nation of a United States senator as t now appears in the primary election law. That provision reads: "The candidate for United States sen ator receiving the highest number jf j votes of his party in the greatest num ber of representative and senatorial districts of the state shall be declared by the state board of canvassers the nominee of such political party for I United States senator." It is true, therefore, that a repre sentative is in honor bound to vote for the successful nominee of his own party at the primary whether that per- son receive the highest number of votes in his own county or not. Attorney General Jackson, when asked for an explanation of the Ore- gon law, furnished extracts from Sen ator Bourne's speech as follows: The Oregon Plan. Editor Topeka State Journal: Re plying to your request for an explana tion of the Oregon plan of election of United States senators, which is adopt ed in the Kansas Republican platform of this year, permit me to state that I can give you no clearer explanation than that included in the speech of Senator Jonathan Bourne, jr., made in the United States senate on May B, 1910. On this subject, Senator Bourne says: "In the case of a legislator's nomi nation, the candidate may, in addition to his statement, not exceeding 100 words specifying measures and princi ples he advocates, also subscribe to one of two statements, but if he does not so subscribe he shall not on that account be debarred from the ballot. It will be seen, therefore, that three courses are open to him. He may sub scribe to statement No. 1 a follows: "I further state to the people of Ore gon, as well as to the people of my leg islative district, that during my term of office I shall always vote for that candidate for United St3tes senator in congress who has received the highest number of the people's votes for that position at the general election next preceding the election of a senator in congress without regard to my indi vidual preference. "Or he may subscribe to statement No. 2, as follows: "During my term of office I shall consider the vote of the people for United States senator in congress as nothing more than a recommendation which I shall be at liberty to wholly disregard if the reason for doing so seems to be sufficient. "Or he may be perfectly silent on the election of United States senator. It is entirely optional with the can didate. "The law further provides that United States senators may be nomi nated by their respective parties in the party primaries, and the candidate re ceiving the greatest number of votes thereby becomes the party nominee. Then, in the general election the party election thereby becomes the people's and the individual receiving the great est number of votes in the general election thereby bcomes the people's choice for United States senator. How Democrat Was Elected Senator. "Mr. President, in this connection I deem it proper to divert for a time from an explanation of our primary law and give a concrete illustration or its operation. Both my colleague. Sen ator Chamberlain, and myself were se lected by the people and elected by the legislature under the provision of thii law. Opponents of popular government, and especially of the election of United States senators by a direct vote of the people, have bitterly assailed statement No. 1 of our law because a legislature, overwhelmingly Republican, elected my colleague, who was a candidate select ed by the Democratic party and nomi nated by the whole electorate of the state as the people's choice of our state for United States senator. Upon re flection. -I think every intelligent man who is honest with himself must con cede that this fact, instead of being the basis of a criticism, is the highest kind of evidence as to the efficacy of the law, and every advocate of the election of United States senators by a popular vote must realize that Oregon has evolved a. plan through its stata ment No. 1, provision of its primary law, wherein, in effect, the people en joy the privilege of selecting their United States senators, and, through tie crystallization of public opinion. the legislative ratification of their ac tion. Sentiment of Oregon Ix-glsla tors. "The Oregon legislature consists of 90 members, 30 in the senate and 60 in the house, 46 making the necessary ma jority on full attendance for the elec tion of United States senator. Fifty one members out of 90 of the legis lature which elected Biy-colleague. Sen ator Chamberlain, were subscribers to statement No. 1, making on joint bal lot a majority of 6 out of a total of 90 members. All of these 51- members subscribed to statement No. 1 pledge Vnllintnrtlv onT i u tee 1... J V. .3 by them from a personal belief in the desirability of the popular election o.

In order, however, to insure such loyalty, the Oregon plan provides for a statement pledge to be taken by members of the legislature who are willing to subscribe thereto, by which the candidate for the legis lature states to the people of the stat, as well as of his own legislative dis trict, that during his term of office he will always vote for the candidate for senator who has received the highest number of the people's votes at tb-s preceding general election, without re gard to his individual preference.

This, of course, is ar. evolutin in politics, and is a hard blow to the man who manipulates combina- tions at legislatures but it appears to me to oe in tne interest ot tne govern- ment and the general welfare.'

FOLLOWS CONVICTION And Imposition of Fines by the i Federal Court. Said to Hare Made 400 Per Cent in Year. Washington, Nov. 17. The depart ment of justice has taken notice of a newspaper dispatch from Pittsburg that the corporations combined in the RnnB-j-a 'window glass trust" have served notice upon employees that a them closed and removinr their prod uct from the market. It expenses dur this period were $138,000 for one year for leases and watchmen of these closed down factories. "Indictments were found against the 15 directors and officers of the com pany, each one of whom -was either president or officer of one. of the com panies who had entered into agree ments to sell their product only to the Imperial company. Demurrers to the indictments were overruled and the case was set for trial in Pittsburg on Monday. November 14.

"The following day the defendants appeared in court in Pittsburg and in terposed pleas of nolle contendre. and despite the opposition of the district attorney and Special Assistant Grosve nor, the court only fined each of the individual defendants $500 and the cor poration $2,500 and costs. "It was stated to the court that the combination had been dissolved and this was one of the considerations on which the court let the defendants go on a fine merely.

TOLSTOI STILL ALIVE. And His Condition Is Said to Be Slightly Improved. Tula, Nov. 17. Count Leo Tolstoi is still alive and even said to be slightly improved this morning.

Cavalierl Said to Have Received $25, 000 From the Cbanlers. New Tork, Nov. 17. Lina Cavalieri is a keen business woman. Despite the fact that she probably could not get an engagement in America, she has ac quired more Chanler money. Not much this time, a mere trifle of $25,000 or bo. But she didn't have ot say I love you" to get it. She merely had to declare: "I agree not to come to America to sing, in the operatic and concert season of 1910-1911." As a guarantee of good faith she af fixed her interesting signature to a legal document pledging that she would remain away from America and not appear to add further confusion to the rest of the Chanlers, whi haven't rel ished their relative, the sheriff, having plunged them into publicity. This state ment is vouched for by a close friend of the Chanler family. PRIEST IN POLITICS. Mgr. Falconio Discusses Prerogatives of the Fathers. New Orleans, Nov. 17. Monsignor Falconio, papal delegate to the United States, gave out an opinion in the course of an interview here today as to the prerogatives of a priest concern ing matters of public discussion and action. Mgr. Falconio has been attending the convention here of the American Federation of Catholic Societies and will leave New Orleans tonight for At lanta, whence he will return to Wash ington. "No priest should identify himself with any political party," Mgr. Fal conio declared. "He must always stand for the right and for the best man for offices and he must be free to support the right. There are many political questions which do not concern the priest at all. But as to questions con cerning the morality of the people he can certainly express himself."

Local operat ing officials are Interested in the prob able outcome of the miestion of safety appliances which is now before the In terstate commerce commission. It Is thought probable that the commission will rule that the so-called safety ap pliance act shall run against only the cars to be built or new equipment. The specifications for constructing cats under this act cover 42 pages and con tain something like 21,000 words. It s asserted at a recent hearing In Wash ington that a strict compliance with the law would cost the railroads of the country $50,000,000. It is not likely the railroads will offer any objections to equipping all new cars in strict conformity with this law, the time limit for which is July 1, 1911. The specifications under the act are largely technical, but in the aggregate they mean much to the railroads. Ono western official. President B. L. Wln chell of the Prisco, said recently that it would be unreasonable to require the railroads to reconstruct old cars. He says that on his system alone this work would cost $600,000. The Frisco, he says, has ordered the specifications of the new law strictly enforced re garding all new equipment offered, but does not believe there is any condition warranting the rebuilding of equip ment which will be worn out within a few years. Railroad operators and managers realize that it is just as much to the Interest of owners of a railroad to equip rolling stock with every safety appli ance as it is to the employee or the public. When through the fault of a company an employee is killed or in jured, the road not only must be pre pared to pay damages, but loses the services of an employee. But they do not believe there is any good reason for going over every car on the system to add an inch to the clearance or put three bolts where there are but two. One western road reports that within a few years its treasury has been de pleted to the extent of $2,500,000 In equipping its engines and cars to con form with federal and state statutes. Nearly every western road has com plied with the act reauiring safety automatic couplers, air brake control of trains, new ash pans of specified clearance and electrical headlights.

"An itching rash broke out on my face and neck, so bad that I scratched It until my face was a mass of raw flesh which kept me awake all night.

That Japan is in the market for a large order of locomotives is evidenced just now by the presence in the city of Dr. S.

A team composed of last year's college foot ball players now attendig the Harvard law school, demonstrated on Soldiers field Wednesday that they could "come back" with a week or two of practice, for by a score of 9 to 0 they defeated the Carlisle Indians.

Hamilton Fish, the former Harvard captain, led the law school team and was as strong on the defense as Philbin in the offensive.

When the board of arbitration of the National Associa tion of Professional Baseball leagues started last night to reclassify certain leagues on the basis of the 1910 census, they hit a snag the first thing they did not have the official figures on some of the citie3 involved. Forthwith telegrams were flashed to Washington in an appeal to the census bureau to furnish the Information. An early answer explained that under the law the population figures of cities specified could not be given out of their order. This looked like a stone wall until some one discovered that the census bureau could furnish totals on any col lection of cities in any league. President Sexton telegraphed that this arrangement would be satisfac tory, but as these figures will not be available until tomorrow the matter of reclassification went over. George W.

While it was known by a few people of this locality that the remedy Root Juice has created considerable excite ment throughout the state my making scores of remarkable cures during the past few months, it was not supposed so many people from out of town were Interested, but many from the country are helping to swell the crowds that are calling at the drug store to learn of the remarkable discovery. A travel ing man in the presence of a number of home people said: "I wouldn't take this whole town for what Root Juice did for me. I suffered with my stom ach and kidneys for years. I tried everything that I could put the least confidence In, but continued to grow worse- At times I felt like I had rocks in the pit of my stomach. Often gas would form in my stomach and bowels and press up against my heart so that It would reel liKe it wouia siop oeauns. Frequently I would get deathly sick and throw up my food. Ofttimes there was a raw, burning sensation in the pit of my stomach and I was never free from pain in my back and limbs. The doctors said the pain in the limbs was rheumatic While at Lafayette I heard so much of Root Juice that I decided to try it. I bought three bot tles and by the time it was used I had a good appetite and could digest fat pork. I do not believe any one enjoys better health than I now enjoy." The Root Juice people have hundreds of testimonials of those who have been cured by the remedy. It is sold for one dollar a bottle or three bottles for two dollars and a half.

NEW FAST TRAINS. Will Kim From New York to Chicago In 22 Hours. Chicago, Nov. 17. Indications of- tie quickened competition between the New York Central and Pennsylvania lines for the passenger traffic between Chicago and jew York, expected to result from the extensive terminal improvements In the eastern city are seen by rail road men in the announcements by both big systems of new train service to be inaugurated on November 27, the date of the opening of the Pennsylva nia's new $100 million dollar terminal and tunnel into the heart of Manhat- t tan. 1 With the opening of the new tunnel under the Hudson river upon the ar rival of the fast trains leaving Chicago on November 25, the Pennsylvania will for the first time secure a direct en- trance with its rails to New York city proper, eliminating the necessity of a ferry trip from Jersey City. TThe Pennsylvania is thus in a sense 1 invading what the New York Central has long considered its strong hold as it is the only road to reach the heart of the city with its passenger trains. On the date of the tunnel opening the New York Central lines wall put on an entirely new 22 hour train to be called the Lasalle street limited, as a com pliment to the Chicago bankers and brokers that will constitute a large percentage of its patronage while the Pennsylvania will reduce the time of its Chicago limited train westbound from 24 to 22 hours.

An apparently in spired statement issued today fixes November 28 as the date for the disso lution of parliament. The government designs to pass the budget before ap pealing to the country, the debate on the financial measure proceeding in the house of commons while the lords are discussing the veto bill. That the American dollar and the "Irish dictator" will figure largely in the Unionists campaign was Indicated by the excitement at the annual con ference of Conservative associations at Nottingham this morning, when Henry Chaplin, Unionist member of parlia ment for Wimbledon and former presi dent of the local government board. In an opening speech denounced the gov ernment which, he said, was handing over the rule of the country to "the sworn enemy of England, who with the gold of foreign millionaires, aspires to dictate our destinies." RED CROSS SEALS. DEEP-SEATED COUGH CURED IN 5 'HOURS New Home-Made Syrup. Cut this out.) From Boston Press. Progress in medical compounds never ceases, and now it is stated by a prominent medical man -that any deep seated cough or cold on the lungs can be actually cured in five hours by the clock. Opium and morphine have been resorted to in the past as relief measures. But now it is learned that the system must be treated to rid it of inflammation and congestion. A tonic laxative cough syrup does the work so quickly and thoroughly as to be almost magical. What heretofore has taken weeks to cure can be accomplished in hours. Get this formula filled or mix it at home and always keep it on hand: One-half ounce fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce compound essence cardiol and three ounces syrup white pine compound. Shake the bottle and take twenty drops every half hour for four hours. Then take one-half to one tea spoonful three or four times a day un til the system is purified and tones up. Give children less according to age. One filling w-ill usually cure a whole family, as the dose is small. Climate Failed Medicine1 Cured Will Replace the Christmas Stamps of Former Years.

The state bank at Cushing, Neb., was rob bed early today by bandits who dyna mited the safe, wrecked the building, secured $3,000 and escaped. Sheriffs Haigley and Sutton are in pursuit of the robbers. It has been abundantly shown that rest, fresh air, and good food, do help many persons suffering from tuberculosis. But, to be really honest, it must be admitted that the disease is seldom more than "arrested." Something more Is needed. Eckman's Alterative is a medicine made for the cure of Tuberculosis. It has cur ed this disease again and again. Often tnese cures have been effected where the surroundings were not ideal, where no Intelligent care was taken of the patient, i wnere money was scarce; gooa rooa ana good cooking unusual yet cures result ed. Now we argue and urge that Eck man's Alterative should be used in every case of Tuberculosis, in addition to good, nourishing food, and fresh, air, which we all need. The facts the evidence of cures that have been made are interesting reading. A remarkable cure follows: Weldon, 111. Gentlemen: "Through Eckman's Altera tive I have been saved from a premature grave, and, feeling that I might benefit suffering humanity I take pleasure in writing you a brief history of my sick ness, which you are at liberty to use. "On December 14, 1901, I was taken with typhoid pneumonia. My lungs be came very much affected: my sputum was examined and Tuberculosis Bacilli was found. On February 21st, 1905, was advised to go to Fort Worth, Texas. While there an abscess In my right lung broke and discharged. I grew worse, and became very much) emaciated. My physi cian informed me that I must go to Colorado as quickly as possible. I left Texas June 1st, and arrived in Canon City June 3rd, very feeble. After being there two weeks, my physician informed me that nothing could be done, as my case was hopeless. Three weeks later I returned home, weighing 103 pounds, the doctor having given me no assurance of reaching there alive. On the 14th of July I began taking Eckman's wonderful remedy for Con sumption, it being very highly recom mended. Today I welghi 158 pounds. I am stout and well and can do any kind of work about my grain elevator. I have not an ache nor pain In my lungs, eat well, sleep well, and never felt better. I would be glad If every person afflicted with Tuberculosis took- Eckman's cure." (Signed Affidavit) ARTHUR WEBB." Eckman's Alterative cures Bronchitis, Asthma, Hay Fever; Throat and Lung Affections.

POLICE CHIEFS TO MEET. Morris Jenkins Will Attend the Wich ita Meeting Next Slonth. The Bright Spot on East Fourth Morris Jenkins, chief of police, plans to attend the meeting of the Kansas chiefs of police In Wichita some time next month. The object of the meet ing Is to discuss plans for driving crime from the state and perfecting stronger police regulations. The movement for a meeting of the police heads was suggested recently by the Leavenworth chief of police and was promptly endorsed by Mayor C. L. Davidson and James H. McPherson, chief of Wichita. In the next few days invitations will be sent to the heads of police departments in every town of consequenece in Kansas, ask ing them to attend the gathering. The invitations are being sent out with the sanction of Mayor Davidson of Wichita, who thinks the meeting will result in much good for the towns of the state. He said that no doubt many new ideas as to the enforcement of the city ordinances would be gained by every representative present. Chief Jenkins is of the opinion that a discussion of the ordinances in vogue in other towns will benefit the police heads and have a tendency to secure better city laws. The convention will take up such questions as the illegal sale of liquor, cocaine and other drugs; also the best methods to adopt to sup press pickpockets and stop every form of crime that is practiced in the cities. Arraneements have been made with the Wichita Commercial club to enter tain the representatives of the police departments and the Kansas cops will be taken In automobiles on a "seeing Wichita" trip. The date of the meeting has not been announced, but probably will be held early in December or the week before Christmas holidays. DR6P IN LVt STOCK.

One to a family. Kansas City, Nov. -17. Live stock dealers say that from the highest prices of 1910 declines have accrued of $3.50 a hundred pounds ii. prices of hogs, $4.45 in the value of lambs and $1.50 in the market for fat cattle. The top prices paid yesterday were $7.65 for hogs, $6.30 for fat steers and $5.75 for lambs, per hundred pounds in each case. Yesterday's market was what commission men call "a bad one," with sheep fifty cents lower and hogs fifteen to twenty-five cents lower than on the preceding day, and cattle fifteen to twenty-five cents lower than on Monday. Receipts of all kinds of live stock were considerably larger yesterday than usual, and larger than on the cor responding day last year. Packers are so confident of plentiful supplies of live stock for some months to come, because of the big corn crop, that they are buying only such animals as they need for current orders, which, they say, are smaller than usual. Dry weather in the West is begin ning to be something of a factor in de pressing the market. Scarcity of stock water is said to be' causing anxiety among farmers in some sections. In Southwest Kansas and Oklahoma, where cattle are pastured on the fall sown wheat, the dry weather is mak ing it necessary for farmers to keep their stock out of the fields. Hogs Have Declined S3.5C a Hundred From the High Mark. Several of our Topeka Business Men who have visited The Isle of Pines, tell of its present and future possibilities, both as to investment and delight fuJ climatic conditions. Chas. Gault, of the law firm of Mulvane Gault, writes of the Isle of Pines. I think that within ten years the Isle of Pines will be "one of the show spots of the world. It has a fine climate, and land that is especially adapted to- the culture of pineapples, grape fruit,, and other citrus fruits. The Isle of Pines proposition offers to the clerk, the machinist, the man who is just earning a little more than enough for a living, one of the best oppor tunities to invest his savings in the land that will constantly and rapidly increase in value. The Cuchilla Alta tract is as well located and has as good natural a advantages as any other tract on the Island. It is fertile, sightly and accessible. I have visited other locations adapted to similar products and find the conditions in the Isle of Pine3 more favorable than any other place, in that it is neither a desert nor a jungle and does not have to be irrigated, yet when planted to citrus fruits and pine apples the land will produce big money every, year. And, last but not least, this Isle of Pines is owned and is being developed by the best of American citi zens. They own ninety-eight per cent of it. CHAS. E. GAULT Letter from J. W. Jamieson with Whiteker Bros. Wholesale Fruit Dealers. Topeka, Kans. Nov. 12, 1910. I will always look back with pleasure on my trip to the Isle of Pines, and I think had it had no resources other than its beautiful climate and splendid water, it would become famous as a health resort, but it' has plenty of resources in the Citrus Fruit and Vegetable line. While these resources are not fully developed there are thousands of acres of fruit trees set out not yet large enough to bear, but there is plenty of small orchards producing that sho the wonderful future pos sibilities of this little island as they are already now producing the finest quality of Grape Fruit found anywhere and their Pineapples are also becoming famous. I think this Island has a future in the fruit indus try that will not be in the future years second to even -California. J. W. JAMIESON Communication from D. L. Hoatson, of The Arkansas Valley Town and Land Company I spent several days on the Isle of Pines looking at the land and investigating its possibilities as a place for growing citrus fruits. After a thorough investigation I came to the conclusion there must be a great future for this island, the soil in most places being ideal for cit rus fruits. The trees grow very rapidly and produce fruit in abund ance, in from four to five years from planting. Nowhere else may we see as fine a grade of fruit as is raised here; rich colored grape fruit; sweet juicy oranges large lemons large thin-skinned seedless limes great big sweet pineapples, etc. The land is cheap compared with the price of other citrus fruit lands. This was one of the features that appealed to me, making it possible for the clerk, teacher or professional man to obtain a tract of this land, have it planted and in a few years have a producing grove similar to the California groves, which are worth from $1,000 to $1,500 per acre. The scenery of the island is beautiful beyond description. The climate ideal. The finest of mineral water, a delightful place to live, free from frosts and excessive heat and for the man who is looking for a home I consider there is no better place as nature has provided ev erything he could wish for. Yours very truly, D. L. HOATSON. Call or address S.B. Rohrer, Suite 504, New England Building, for full informa tion about prices and terms of land in the Isle of Pines. E- Not Sorry For Blander.

The State Journal la a member of the Associated press and receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or ganization for the exclusive afternoon publication In Topeka. The news Is received In The State Jour nal building over wires for thia so is pur pose. Lest It might bo forgotten It will soon be too late to do your Christmas chopping: early. Recollect that time file. And the state of New Hampshire ehows a gain of 4.6 per cent in her population during the past decade. Evi dently, some of the "deserted villages" of New England are becoming repopu lated. Maybe, If the meat prices continue to tumble, many an ordinary plug: cit izen will soon be able to mingle oc casionally with a bunch of bacon And a bevy of eggs for breakfast. The common herd and bacon plus eggs have been as strangers for many moons. Step up gentleman and put in your application. The entry list is filling fast for the great free-for-all race for the next Kansas United States sena torial nomination which will be con cluded at the primaries two years hence. Present indications are that it Is going to be a merry affair. There is never a rose without its thorn. Turkeys are bo plentiful and therefore so cheap, as compared to what they have been in years past, that the farmers are refusing to kill them. So the usual shortage is ex pected In the Thanksgiving supply and this will have a tendency to keep the price up. Colonel Roosevelt's silence and his seclusion at his Oyster Bay home since election may be explained by the fact that in the few days which have elapsed since that memorable event, he has received no less than 18,000 letters and postal cards. That is enough mail to keep even such an ac tive gentleman as the colonel tolerably busy. Mr. Bryan has "eliminated" T. R. as a possibility for a third term as president. Or rather, Mr. Bryan says the results of the recent election have thus eliminated the colonel. Mr. Bryan, however, has not definitely eliminated himself as a fourth time candidate for the presidency. But, as Rudyard Kipling would say, that Is another story Texans should be up to better busi ness than preparing to do battle with Mexicans. There is no danger that any serious differences will arise be tween Mexico and the United States because of the recent unfortunate oc currences in each country which have been Intensely disagreeable to the other. But nothing should be done by Texans, or any body of them to ag pravate the situation. Isn't it rather unusual that a man (who Is serving a life terra In the state's penitentiary at Lansing should be re leased from confinement temporarily and brought by the warden to Topeka for a conference with the governor concerning a pardon? Yet that was done the other day by Warden Cod ding with James Dalton, who was con victed seven years ago for murdering a Jailer in the Marshall county Jail. Now that a stock company of To pekans has purchased the Topeka franchise in the Western league and made certain the chance for the fans of this town to enjoy a high class of baseball, all possible encouragement ehould be given. There is no reason why. Topeka should not have a first class team, and if one is provided it will be supported adequately. Topeka la an excellent baseball town if it has the opportunity to be. Mr. Pinchot is probably sorely dis appointed. He likely had figured it out that his application to file a brief with President Taft against the validating of the Cunningham claims would be ignored or else that he would receive a note from the president tell ing him to mind his own business. That would have given Mr. Pinchot and hi3 friends a fine opportunity to mike a little more political capital against the president. But President Taft told Mr. Pinchot to come on with his brief. Oklahoma's supreme court has de clared invalid the special election at which the voters in the new state en deavored to transfer the capital from Guthrie to Oklahoma City. The ever ready Governor Haskell now proposes to call a special session of the legisla ture for the purpose of having Okla homa City declared the capital. He believes the legislature has the su yrama power of location in this mat ter. As a matter of. fact, though, the only way out of this dilemma would appear to be In Oklahoma having a couple of capitals. Connecticut and Rhode Island each had two capitals for many years. i TOPEKA SHOULD HAVE A ZOO. Why shouldn't Topeka have a zoo? A herd of seven buffalo has been offer ed to the city if it will merely pay the freight on them. Other cities which have zoological gardens have generous ly proposed to give Topeka deer, and a variety of other animals of which they have a surplus. The cost of these specimens of the woods and fields will only amount to the expense of getting them here. These are opportunities which should not be allowed to pass by. And apparently the only reason why they are not immediately taken advan tage of Is a lack of funds at the dis posal of the city commissioners. It is admitted on all sides that the city finances are in bad shape at the present time, but by the first of the year they will be materially improved and there will be about all the money needed to conduct each and every one of the city departments. And It does seem that enough money could be spared from the general revenue fund to make a beginning in the establish ment of a zoo here. If this is not ad visable the money needed might wel be taken from the park fund, as a zoo would come under the management of the park department. It would not take a large sum to make a start. Each year another small sum might be de voted to this purpose, and it would not be long before Topeka would have a zoo of quite respectable proportions. The cost of maintaining it each year would be money well spent for there Is nothing that gives greater pleasure to most people than the privilege visiting zoological collections and familiarizing themselves at first hand with the inter esting animals which make them up The number of people who visit the zoological gardens in the large cities Is legion. In fact they are' the chief public attraction in such cities. At the Gage park, Topekans have an ideal place for the establishment of a zoo It probably won't be long now before this park is brought into easy access for the people of the city. A zoo there would enhance its charms immeasur ably. And it is to be hoped that no effort will be spared by the city auth orities to make a beginning in build ing up such a zoo. THE END OF THE COOPER CASE Ring down the final curtain on the shame of Tennessee. Robin J. Cooper has been formally declared "not guilty" of his participation with his father. Colonel Duncan B. Cooper, in the cruel and brutal murder of former United States Senator Edward W. Carmack. Young Cooper goes his way to the ab solute freedom that is also enjoyed by his parent. It is the last act in the most disgraceful travesty on Justice that has ever been perpetrated in any commonwealth of this nation. The brilliant Carmack was shot down in the back, like a mad dog, by the Coopers for a no better reason than the settling of a score in a political feud which had developed between him and the elder Cooper. Then came tho long and rather sensational trial of tho Coopers. Both of them were convicted by a Jury of their peers of being guilty of murder. The exact Justice of th3 verdict has never been questioned by any fair or honest-minded .man. Tha usual appeal was taken to the supreme court of the state. It resulted in the affirmation of the verdict against the elder Cooper, the reversal of the ver dict against the younger Cooper and the ordering of a new trial for him. Scarcely had the ink on the mandate of the supreme court become dry, before Governor Patterson insulted society and the administration of Justice oy granting a full and complete pardon to the elder Cooper. Never before had there been in these United States sucii improper executive interference with the course of Justice. Now comes the freeing of the younger Cooper, not after a regular second trial, but merely in a formal way by the trial Judge in the strength of the reversal of the con viction by the supreme court. The people of Tennessee, however, have registered a mighty protest against the almost infamous procedures in this famous case. They have given "Pattersonism" the black eye that it deserved. They forced, by their out spoken public opinion, Governor Pat terson to retire from his candidacy for re-election to the governorship and this after he had been regularly re nominated. But the Democratic party In Tennessee still remained under the leadership of friends of Patterson. And so when the people of Tennessee went to the polls on election day, they did the heretofore almost unheard of thing in Tennessee. They elected a Republican to be their governor. Tennessee has been disgraced by the handling of this Cooper case, but the people of that good state have done their best to assuage this disgrace, by protesting with their votes in an em phatic fashion. All honor to them. UNGUARDED MILITARY SECRETS. When the nations of the earth wish to learn the military secrets of the United States they send polite notes to the war department or the navy de partment and their desires are quickly complied with. This is a situation elaborately outlined in an article on the foreign spy boog-a-boo by Gardiner Mack In Popular Mechanics for Decem ber. Mr. Mack not only shows that any person seeking information re garding the military resources of this country can get all he wants from the government officers or libraries, but that picture post cards showing views of fortifications, range finders and guns made from detail producing photo graphs are to be had anywhere for 'n significant sums. That other nations are not quite so liberal with their in formation he also shows. The writer calls the United States a kindergarten for spies because none but the veriest tyros in the business are needed to gather together the hidden facts bj to our armaiient. Mr. Mack admits there are a few military secrets left uncovered m America, but he asserts they are few and far between. "In only one country in the world Is there no law against the publication and sale of all information relating to military and naval matters," the writer states, "the United States. The other great powers make the punishment of spies as drastic as possible. The Drey fus case in France gives an excellent idea of the manner in which a supposed secret agent is treated. Only recently a naval spy was captured in France a man believed to have secured secret naval plans. His punishment was as quick, as sure and as severe as that administered to Captain Dreyfus. Fre quent sights in port towns of Europe are signs in several languages warning tourists that no photographs may be taken within certain limits, the metes and bounds being carefully stated. At Gibraltar, the English government will not permit tourists to land with cam eras. Neither will the Japanese at Nagasaki. In fortified towns, visitors are permitted only in certain specified districts. Beyond that heavy armed guards bar progress." JOURNAL ENTRIES A "Jolly good fellow" is generally nothing else. The freer the advice the more ex pensive it is apt to prove. Any kind of a row is bad enough but the family row is the worst. Even after some people know they are in the right they don't go ahead. If it were not for the "kickers" things would not run along as smoothly and as satisfactorily as they do. JAYHAWKER JOTS A glance at the weekly newspapers would seem to indicate that there are no less than a dozen or fifteen high school football teams, each of which claims to be the champion team of the state. The conservative Georgetown cor respondent of the Pratt Union reports: "There seems to have been a great many ducks killed this last week, if we can Judge by the shooting that is be ing done." Duluth is not the lonesome, quiet place It used to be, writes the Onaga Herald's correspondent in that local ity and he tells why: "Even if the trains are not always on time they come. They sometimes switch around on these tracks in a lively manner. This will soon be one of the best sta tions along the line." A North side society note in the Burlingame Enterprise: We observe that when a certain amorous young swain, well known in this camp, takes an affectionate leave of his lady friend on Sunday evening, he doesn't leave his horse tied loose any more, while doing so: consequently there are no more buggy cushions and whips found lying around loose in the vicinity of Jonas Brock's frog pond. There is a story on the two candi dates for sheriff that Is good enough to be true, says the Marion Record. It runs something like this. Tom Arm strong pulled up at a farm house and found the good wife out milking the cow. Tom V'ery gallantly offered to relieve her and the lady readily as sented. The flow of milk was equal to Tom's talk and finally he said, "Say, have you seen anything of Bob Slay maker around here?" "O, yes," she sweetly replied, "He Is over there in the yard" holding the calf. Business before pleasure is the watchword of the editor of the Lyn don People's Herald, and he is brave enough to say so as the following an nouncement in his paper bears out: No one should take offense that a lo cal in regard to themselves or copy submitted falls of Insertion in this highly moral Journal, as but few week3 pass when we do not "ditch" some of our own matter and fail to get other matter set up, owing to pay ing advertisements that come in and must have insertion. The simoleons looks good to us and command space in the paper to the exclusion of other matter. GLOBE SIGHTS. From the Atchison Globe.l We have noticed that most success ful men have no side issues. Every man, like every corporation, thinks he is entitled to special priv ileges. If a man chooses to wear side whis kers, he should abide by the conse quences. The price quotations on alienated af fections are usually a good deal abova par value. You are not fair to your feet if your shoes have to be "broken in" before they are comfortable. So many times the man with a Great Purpose In life doesn't stand any chance to accomplish it. The average letter of recommenda tion doesn't mean much. The man who writes it usually does so in order to get rid of the man who asked for it Colonel Roosevelt says he has noth ing to say. It's a pity he didn't an nounce that determination before too much talking caused so much trouble. About the only excitement in Atch ison today is this: A man who was lately operated on, appeared on the streets, and people fear he is out too soon. No man who doesn't do more work than his wife can hope to make a big success in life. Ever know a really suc cessful man whose wife worked as hard as he did? It sometimes happens that the slouch Is as proud of his slovenly appearance as the fop is of his glad rags. And tho pride of the slouch i3 about the worst variety. When a man has a heated argument with his wife, and presents his side of the case in what he believes to be a perfectly fair way. she says: 'Td be ashamed!" As though no Real Man would say such a thing to a lady. REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR. From the New York Press. The unnlest Joke sounds flat when a man you hate tells it. The man of the house has to have the bathroom first, even if he's going to use it last. Women have a keen intuition aut most everything except the kind of man to marry. A little money tries to sing high; big money low. for fear somebody will try to borrow it. Babies deserve a lot of credit for re fusing to kiss rich relatives the rest of the family don't dare not to. KANSAS COMMENT THE FOLLY OF FEAR. The most deadly element for- mar ring and dwarfing lives is fear. It de moralizes character, destroys ambition, induces or causes diseases and para lyzes happiness and achievement in self and others. It has not one redeeming; quality. It is all evil. Once we thought ourselves depend ent on ability or skill or fate or chance. But enough progress has been made in psychology to enable us to know that ability and skill are results rather than causes. It is the mental attitude that de termines the life, and, thanks to a Creator who gives us the light only as we go on in the pathway, the mental attitude becomes more and more firm ly fixed the further we go. However the hand may fail at its appointed or chosen task, however the heart may falter along the way, the mind, which is fortifying both, can and will, if allowed, cover the deficiency in the one instance and banish the halt ing in the other. So what is there to fear? The forces that control your life are In yourself, not in others. Whatever seeds of dis aster may be ripening to fruition were sown long ago in your vices and follies, and ripen they will in spite of all you can do. There is no help in fear. Nature works by laws that are immutable, and that vary not the slightest in all the cycles of infinite time. You may be sure that if you are mentally and morally In harmony with the laws of life all will be well with you. The fiercest storms will turn to gentle breezes to waft you onward. But if you are not in harmony with these laws all will be wrong with you. Fear can not help you. Nothing can. You may cower and quiver, but the cowering and quivering will only the more weaken and degrade you. The mental attitude determines your destiny as the rudder determines the course of a ship. The attitude of courage, good cheer. health and kindness leads to pleasant pathways. There Is nothing to fear but fear. Wichita Beacon. YOU AND YOUR TOWN. Do you love your town? Do you hava any concern for its future? Would you like to see it grow, prosper and extend Its trade and influence? If you do, then ask yourself these questions: "D I help support and maintain its insti tutions? Do I encourage every move ment looking to the up-building of the town? Do I speak a good word for the town and the people at every oppor tunity? Do I lend assistance to its industries? Do I patronize them? Do I fully understand the duties devolving upon me as a citizen 7" It you cannot answer these questions in the affirma tive then you are not only a stumbling block, but a detriment to any com munity.

It has a population of about 1,000,000 per sons and a fine capital city called Montevideo, with a population of about 250,000. The area, of the country is 72. 172 miles, which makes it clear that the entire country is not thickly popu lated. With a commanding position and a. most favorable proximity to prosperous and developing neighbor ing countries Uruguay apparently has a great future. Uruguay Is hot very well known In the revolution column, but it appears there is now some kind of a political disturbance whieh has- called forth riots. A revolution seems imminent. The dispatches recently said the revo lution would probably now be under way were it not for a shortage of horses. A great part of the population of this cduntry is rural and probably not very much interested in governmental af fairs any further than the tendency good administration of public affairs has to facilitate business and Industry. Viewing the situation at long range It seems a shortage of horses may be a blessing sometimes. San Antonio Ex press. WORSHIP OF BEAUTY. Millions of dollars are paid out each year for preparations that will smooth wrinkles, remove moles and darken gray hairs. Women don't want to think they are growing old. They are willing to give any price for anything that will have the semblance of per petuating youth. It has been so from time immemorial, and will be so until the crack of doom. It is natural. And men are not in the least whit different from women in this particular. The men buy hair dyes and pads Just as women do. They are not in position to point a finger at anybody. With it all. are not the artifices that make for beauty rather desirable than otherwise? Are they reprehensi ble in the slightest degree? There is no good reason in the world why a woman at 60 should be stooped and wrinkled and "tippety." Look at Sarah Bernhardt and Ellen Terry. Both are more than 60 years of age. Neither has a wrinkle. Both are grandmoth ers. Neither is old. They have taken care of themselves. They have not scorned "beauty" recipes. They have scrubbed on face cream and stuck "wrinkle plasters" on their faces from time to time as occasion might seem to demand. Savannah News. QUAKER MEDITATIONS. From the Philadelphia Record.!

THE EVENING STORY An Officer's Thanks. By Dorothy Blackmore.J "I'll finish this year at the acad emy, take ony more cruise, mother, and then you may pick out a girl for me." Lieut. Philip Roland said this half Jestingly, half seriously. He had come home for the Thanksgiving holidays and was sitting with his mother in the con servatory opening from the great New England dining room of the old home stead. "That's what you always say, my boy," Mrs. Roland replied. "And, mind you, Phil, the only reason I want you to marry at all is so that you will settle down in some port this side of China and be able to get home oftener than you do." The young man placed his hand over his mother's. "A purely selfish reason, eh? Well, 15 days in five years isn't a very good record for a man with as good a home as I have, I'll admit. But the navy's the navy, mother." Mrs. Roland nodded her head sagely. "I know that." she sighed. "And yet I've been instructing in the academy for three years," the young man continued, a half-apologetic note in his voice; "with onry summer cruises to break the monotony. "I've been teaching the young idea how to navi gate and "And stay away from his home," the mother interrupted. "Perhaps, but not intentionally, moth er." There was silence for a few momenta while the canary overhead threw down seed rjods on the two. Philip spoke at last. "And who dines with us tomorrow? Who helps us to be thankful we have mince pie and turkey to eat?" "Aunt Mary and Uncle Joe." "They're not new nor exciting. Who else?" "Helena Taylor," added the mother, looking keenly at her sonr "And her husband?-' Philip half ask ed, half declared. His mother shook her head. "Not this year," she said. Then, suddenly, she rose. "And I have much to do, dear. The day before Thanksgiving is a busy day for a good housekeeper, my boy." "And you're all of that," Philip call ed after her as she disappeared through the doorway. The tall young officer studied the end of his clear. Then he puffed two or three deliberate, thoughtful puffs and leaned back in his chair. "Helena Taylor, eh? It's three years tomorrow since she and I met. If mother really wants me to marry. she had better stop asking Helena here. She spoils all other women for me. I can not marry for years after I've seen her. What a pity she mar ried that fellow! Nice enough chap Bob, but His soliloquy led him always to the same result a figurative cry over the milk that was spilled. The girl had married another man while he was on his midshipman cruise and he had never taken interest in another woman. A lifetime friend of the family and an orphan, Helena Madison had al ways been a guest in the Roland home stead during holidays, and after she married a townsman it was natural that her husband should be included in the invitation. And after Philip left home it was the same; she came as often as ever and the mother never knew of the effect her marriage had had on her son. Always unconscious of it, she had made it a point to ask the girl to the little reunions of old friends she planned for Philip's home coming. This year there had been no such gathering, but Helena was coming to take her old place at the Thanksgiving table. In the last year the mother had learned much, but her son was ignorant of her fuller knowledge of his life. If she knew now with what mixed emotions the young man waited the coming of the great feast day, she did not show it. Nor did she betray the secret she was holding in her heart. She was the same busy, tender mother, but she avoided tete-a-tete h-urs with him, pleading duty as her excuse for hurrying away when he began to question her about the old friends. During the night the snow fell over everything, and when Philip opened his eyes and looked out of the long old-fashioned window by his bed he felt that he and all the world ha-J much to be thankful for. The pure white blanket with Its sparkling sur face spread over everything for miles around and the green of the fir tree3 alone lent color t.o the picture. The Roland house stood far away from neighbors back in a wonderful old garden. Philip sat before the big cracking: logs when he heard the first sound of sleighbells in the distance. He listened intently and the Jingle grew clearer; It was coming up the long driveway. He sat erect. Perhaps it was Helena! Or it might be his aunt and uncle. In a moment the great front door swung open and he heard his mother greet Helena Taylor. He went quick ly toward the hall and met them ii the archway. "It's three years today, Philip," Helena was saying when he took her hand. "The time hasn't done much to rou anyway," the youngman returned. "You can be thankful for that, can't she. mother?" he asked. Mrs. Roland looked up at the taM girl and the eyes of both women filled suddenly with tears. Philip caught his breath sharply. What had he said? He turned toward the fire. They both fol lowed, his mother with her arm about the girl. "Philip," his mother began when thev stood looking down into the flames, "the years you Just spoke of have done more to to Helena than you know. She she "I lost Bob two years ago, Phil," Helen finished. For a few minutes no one said a word. "I did not tell you, dear," the mother began, "because it has always been my policy to keep everything but happy J news of home from you. Then, a year ago, when Helena came to stay with me for a week or two I learned some thing I had never even dreamed of that you had once cared for her." Philip started as if he would have spoken; then he drew himself to gether. "Later, by common If silent con sent, we decided to wait until today to to let you know. Helena has al ways been with us on this day, and poor Bob, too. when he was here. Somehow, I felt you would rather have us tell you together, dear." The little woman looked up at her big son and understood that she had done the right thing in his eyes. The arrival of the other guests pre cluded the continuance of the Intimate conversation and the trend of things led them all' to gayer channels and holiday making. "I told mother yesterday that I would finish this year at the academy, take one more cruise and then return to look over any girl she might have picked out for me to marry," the young man said, looking at Helena. "A capital Idea," she said, gayly. "That was yesterday," he added. "So you said." "May I say further today to night?" he asked, earnestly. Helena did not answer; her gayety had deserted her. "While I was on another cruise years ago you slipped away from me. I lost you. Suppose this time I choose port duty, a home and you? Will you marry me, Helena?" And when she had promised he told her it was his first really thankful Thanksgiving since he left home, for, as he explained, he had come home only to find her and be unable to get her. Nothing else had seemed worth being thankful for, he whispered to her. (Copyrighted 1910 by Associated Literary Press.) The Airship of 1915. From the standard of present de velopment the airship of 1915 may be conceived aa having a hull of rigid construction, 1,000 feet long and 80 feet beam, with accommodations for 125 to 150 passengers, with a crew of 42 men. The new air liner will resemble a submarine, or rather a flying fish. All its parts will be compactly built into the hull. Its underbody, 800 feet long, 12 feet wide, and 9 feet high, will ex tend between the elbows fore and aft, where the hull begins to curve toward its pointed bow and stern. The under body will hold seven passengers and eight operating sections, after the fash ion of a compartment sleeping car. A continuous passageway will extend from end to end. The prow, glazed with artificial mica, will furnish an aerial observatory. Its Interior will be a series of grill gal leries, connected by steps. Here will be the "bridge," the air liner's nerve center, with signal radiation to all parts of the ship. A narrow gallery will reach the extreme nose, where a small exploring gun, swunn on a uni versal Joint, can be fired toward most points in space. On its s veral plat forms will be the navigating deck, the helm, the "wireless." the chart room, and both meteorological and astronomi cal "observatories." Below the "bridge" will be a hatch way to the main passage in the for ward underbody of the ship, where there is a companion way, which is the ship's portal. Abaft of this will be the captain's cabin. To starboard will be gin the main passage and staterooms, with all doors opening on the passage. Next to the captain's quarters, in sequence, will be officers' and en gineers' staterooms: officers' wardroom and mess; the barber shop; the first motor compartment; the toilet' room; passengers' staterooms; passengers, living quarters, a central lounging, reading and dining saloon, the width of the ship. The saloons, glazed with openings jf artificial mica, can be transformed into open deck space by sliding side ports. At the stern will be the steward's quarters, where all cooking will be by electricity. Meals will be served n each saloon, the pantry service being operated by escalator, passing through the "hold," which will be attached to the airship's entire underbody. Table service will be delivered through a trap in the saloon floor. Telephone and electric annunciators will connect eacn section with the steward's quarters. As only 25 passengers will be accommo dated in each section, but one steward will be required there. All bed covering will be of the light est weight, because elektron heater3 carrying the hot exhaust of the motors will kept the temperature automatical ly even while flying at frigid altitudes. When flying low in the tropics the air ship may be perfectly cooled by venti lation. Only hand baggage will be per mitted for the quick passage, other "baggage" going by steamer or express airship. The sides of the "hold" or tunnel, 5 feet high and 8 feet wide, will be lined with continuous tanking, containing gasoline f'. el, to. be forced upward into the engine rooms as needed. Tha outside of the "hold" will serve as th3 airship's rounded keel, and will enable the croft to float on water; elastic buf fers for landing ill be fixed under each engine section. The eight motor compartments will each be equipped with one 200 horse power motor, transmitting energy by short rteel belts. In the same side of the hull, and to auxiliary engines operating pumps that will control the gas chambers, without expanding gas and condensing it into the airship's tubular frame. They will also drive powerf-il fans for ventilating the air spaces of the hull and the living quar ters. The electric power plants for lighting, cooking, and operating the escalator will be In the engine com partments. The top of the hull, now the Zeppelin's observatory, will become a long -"hurricane deck" of thin, light planking, with side rails. Here will be kept "service" implements: two slender masts, carry ing the "wireless" atennae and the yel low "top lights," observatories for cloud triangulation and taking the alti tude of stars; searchlights, kite winch, and the airship's "boats," two small, swift aeroplane "scouts" one fore, the other aft, with ample space for launch ing and alighting. The deck will be reached by small, winding openwork stairs through the hull. The hull will be divided into 20 gas-tight compart ments, for sustaining the" airship in space. Along the port-and starboard sides 5 sets of curved aeroplane sur faces will help to lift and support the airship or steer It up and down. Thev will be "stepped" to avoid Interference. Between them will be 8 propellers, 4 on eacn side, at alternating levels along the hull. It ia believed that within five vears such an air liner will be capable of traveling 75 miles an hour, ordinarily. aim orten izo miles, in the upper levels. Two miles above the equator a plane tary current encircles the globe at tre mendous speed. The ashe3 of the eruption of Kratoa were carried in this belt around the world in 14 days. In ten years an airship driven 50 miles an hour may perchance make that trip in 8 days, flying at a speed of 120 miles an hour, or 3.000 a day. Is it all a dream? Ten years ago a pro phecy of the present achievements of German air navigators would have been received with Incredulity. Cen tury Magazine. Tickets to the Yale-Harvard game are selling for 100 each.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 17, 1910. 5 NORTH SIDE NEWS. U. P. Superintendent Inspects Onaga Cut-off. May Use Heavier Class Engines Soon. 110 AD NEEDS THEM. Present Type Too Small Say Railroad Men. Suggest Motor Car Service For Branch Line. J. O. Brinkerhoff, superintendent of the Kansas division of the Union Pa cific, is making an Inspection trip over the Topeka-Marysville branch of the Union Pacific, known as the Onaga cutoff. His trip gives rise to a. rumor among railroad men that heavier engines may be used on the road in the near fu ture on account of the increasing bus iness. It is said that the present class of engines are almost unable to haul the heavy loads. The present class used are the 900's. These may be sup planted by the 1400 class, a much heav ier engine, as soon as the track is in shape to stand the increased weight. At present two regular trains and one extra are run daily. The regular trains lire accommodations. One leaves To peka at 10:40 a. m. and arrives at Marysville at 5:30 p. m. The other ieaves Marysville 3:30 p. m. and ar rives in Topeka at 11 p. m. The extra, a freight, is made up as needed. Since the line has been open ed as far as Marysville the extra has averaged a trip over the line once a day. This morning it was again suggest ed by a prominent North side business Jtian that a motor car passenger ser vice be installed on the line. The Un ion Pacific people state that they do not know what will be drne about this, but say the plan has Its advantages. While at present the track is not in shape for regular passenger trains and the traffic does not demand it, a motor pervfee would make better time and likely give more satisfaction. It is thought that it is possible that such service may be put on when the traf fic does demand it. Notes and Personals.

Had Been Told He Was Located in Topeka. FORTUNE INVOLVED. Missing Man Now Reported to Be in Arizona. Topeka Man Claims to Know of Archibald's Whereabouts. Mrs. Robert Archibald of Elgin, 111., is in Topeka today looking for her hus band, who disappeared from his home ten years ago. Relatives in Chicago, the woman charges, are trying to prove that Archibald is dead and thus defeat her claim for the control of a large estate. The woman came to Topeka in re sponse to a letter from Thomas Hynes, of 114 West Eighth avenue, who told the woman he could locate Archibald. Mrs. Archibald had offered a reward for information leading to the location of her husband. Hynes claims to have received a letter from the man this week, which he says he turned over to Mrs. Archibald. On the other hand, she says the signature is not that of her husband and does not believe the in formation is genuine. It was agreed this morning that Mrs. Archibald was to receive the informa tion which Hynes claims to possess and post a $100 forfeit in a local bank to protect Hynes' reward in case the sup posed location of the man proves ac curate. Topeka Man Mixed Up in Ca.se. There is considerable mystery sur rounding the location of Archibald, and even more mystery concerning the man ner in which Hynes is brought into the affair. Hynes claims to be looking for a brother who disappeared from Chicago about the same time Archibald left Elgin. He says his brother knew Archibald and worked for the man's halfbrother in Chicago. This, he says, formed a chain of evidence upon which he worked not only to locate Archi bald, but to find his own long lost brother. When Mrs. Archibald came to Topeka she brought a letter to Morris Jenkins, chief of police, from the police head in Elgin, chief Jenkins and Detective Voils have been helping the woman with the Hynes affair. When Mrs. Archibald was seen this morning she was not inclined to dis cuss the details of the case, but made the following statement: Mrs. Archibald's Story. "Mr. Archibald and I were married in Elgin ten years ago last April. My husband owned considerable property in and near Elgin and was quite wealthy. It was ten years ago this month that he mysteriously disappeared. Since then I have had no direct word from him. "One morning he said he was going to his farm. He never came back. I learned a few days later that he had drawn what money he had in the bank and that two half brothers in Chicago were threatening to prosecute him for alleged debts he owed. I think these debts must have amounted to $12,000 or $14,000. Since my husband left I have been trying to locate him, but have not succeeded in doing so. Recent ly I ran an ad in the Kansas City Star and received a letter from this man Hynes, who said he could find my hus band for me." Archibald Worth $100,000. It seems that Archibald has an estate valued at from $75,000 to $100, 000. Mrs. Archibald would not state the value of the property, or whether the estimate was too l4w or too high. While in Topeka she stated that Archibald's two half-brothers in Chi cago had tried to prove that her hus band was dead in order to recover a large part of the property. Partly, she says, because she wants to And her husband and partly because she wants to protect her interest in the estate, she is trying to find the. man. About ten months after Archibald left Elgin she received word that he was in St. Louis. She went there hut found he had left the city. Hynes claims that Archibald Is in Arizona. Mrs. Archi bald may go there to hunt him. Since leaving Elgin the man has never writ ten to his wife, but she does not think he in trying to evade her Hynes, who was instrumental in bringing the woman to Topeka, came here a few months ago from Kansas City, where he says he was a collection agent.

Roosevelt Is Heard From Through Col. W. R. Nelson. He Calls the Colonel Leader of the People. New York. Nov. 17. One of Colonel Roosevelt's visitors today was Colonel W. R. Nelson of Kansas Citv. The Evening Post quoted Colonel Nelson as follows: "The west understand Roosevelt," said Colonel Nelson, "and it understands that he is not merely the leader of the Repub lican party he is leader of the American people. The parties are breaking up and under the influence o the old party ties it may take two years, it may take four, it may take six for the people to come to gether in the fight for their own rights, but when they do there won't be anything to it. "Nineteen hundred and twelve for Roosevelt? It's too early to discuss that and there are too many cross currents in the political stream. The trouble is people don't realize that it is the last thing Roosevelt is worrying about. Only those who know him well really appreciate that the thing which concerns him least when he Is in action is what may nappen to him. 'And this is true, whether he ia going up In an aeroplane, going Into the heart of A-trica or tignung xo neip nns pariy out of a hole." SUES ILLINOIS LIFE. State After Company That Bought Kansas Mutual for Rebating. Chicago, "Nov. 17. A secret investiga tion of alleged insurance premium re bating, involving hundreds of thou sands of dollars annually and directed against practically every mutual life insurance company in Chicago, came to lieht yesterday afternoon with the fil ing of four suits in the municipal court by States Attorney wayman. The legal actions are to recover "fines" of from $500 to $1,000, assessed under the law for rebating on lite in surance premiums. One suit is direct ed against the Illinois Lfe Insurance company and P. J. Kane, an agent, and three are directed against the Hartford Life Insurance company, H. P. John son, manager in Chicago, and L. if. Hazen, an agent. It is charged that asrents of the two companies gave 25 per cent rebates on policies sold by them. The legal action by the state's attor ney's office is said to be but the first bomb of a series to be hurled. As soon as these cases have been placed on trial it is said that the state's attorney will bring no less than three score oi similar suits against other companies. Thousands of cases of rebating are al leged to be practiced In Chicago yearly in violation of the law. According to information furnished the state's attorney, the agents them selves are the losers, as they stand the 25 per cent rebate out of their own commissions. The insurance com panies, it is said, "wink" at these vio lations, but do not openly participate in them. In the last three months of the year, when agents are fighting to increase their insurance sales to the highest figure, wholesale rebates, it is said, are given. These percentages range from 15 to 100, or the entire cmmint of the first year's premium. This latter rebate is given n policies ranging upward or sz&.muu. ine per son insured gives a note for the pre mium, which is torn up when he pays the second year's premium. PtTLXMAN HEARING NOV. 30.

The marriage of Miss Anna Trout man and Mr. Warrick Updegraff Wed- 1 t. t all that is beautiful in a formal church wedding. The prettiness of the bride and her maids, the music, the decora tions and the gowns, contributed their full share to the delight of the specta tors tnrougn tne service, wmcii o read by the Very Reverend J. P. DeB. UajCI II L V J 1 V V L H v Madame Lunde Souther sang "Ich laebe JJich Deiore tne ceremony, aim Mrs. J. A.

The ushers, Mr. Clarence Jordan. Mr. larwin Bradley, Mr. Edwin Kistler, Mr. Todd Matthews, and Mr. Waytt, Lytle marched singley down the aisle, and following them came the brides maids, also marching singly. Miss Bernice Emahizer. Miss Emma Bol mar. Miss Alice Larimer, and Miss Helen Spielman, who were the brides maids, were all dressed in yellow mes seline gowns made with long trains, and the overskirts were slightly drawn in about the ankles. The sleeves were short and worn with white gloves, and the neck cut slightly low. The gen eral plan of the gowns for all four of the bridesmaids was the same, with slight variations in trimming. Miss Emahizer's gown was beautifully fin ished on the bodice with a rich trim ming of crystal beads and pearls, and Miss Spielman's gown had a trimming of maribout around the skirt and sleeves. Each of the girls wore a black velvet hat trimmed in black plumes, and carried a messeline and chiffon muff. Carrying muffs instead of flow ers is a new thing here, and added a novel feature to the bridal procession. The bride, on the arm of her father, Mr. James A. Troutman, followed the bridesmaids. Her gown was white satin veiled in white marquisette. Bands of crystal embroidery outlined the low neck and short puff sleeves and the Empire bodice. A satin panel in the back was edged with French knots, and the fullness of the marquisette over skirt was gathered in and fastened to the panel above the long train by a strip of frosted beads in soft tints of pink and lavender. Her tulle veil reached to the hem of the skirt, and was caught in the hah- by orange blos soms. She wore long white gloves and .i .3 v -ryi oil o wreath W III HI 1UU DUirca. of smilax and lilies of the valley, tied with a bow of white lace, ine ome groom met the bride at the foot of the chancel, and the attendants stood in a semi-circle on each side. The intro ductory service was read and the bride given away by her father, and then the bride and bridegroom and the best man followed the dean to the chancel rail, where the vows were taken. After the ceremony Mendelssohn's wedding march was plaved and the bride and bride groom led the recessional march. Fol lowing came the bridesmaids marching, each with an usher, then the flower girls and then Mr. and Mrs. Troutman, and Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Updegraff. A reception was given at the Trout man home. 131 Greenwood avenue, af ter the wedding. The guests were re ceived by Mr. and Mrs. Troutman and Mr. and Mrs. O. P. TTpdegraff. Mrs. Troutman was dressed in a gown of grey crepe trimmed in embroidered net and braid. Mrs. Updegraff's gown was black ehantilly lace over white chif fon, draped over a foundation of white satin. After the reception Mr. and Mrs. Up degraff left for Chicago, where they will spend a week. Upon their return they will occupy the Troutman house during the absence of Mr. and Mrs. Troutman on a trip through the fcouth. and later they will make their home on the Updegraff farm. A pleasurable event of today was the bridge party which Mrs. A. H. Auerbach gave this afternoon at the Topeka club for her mother, Mrs. A. B Deutsch. The tables were decor ated with pink carnations. The first prize was a cut glass serving dish, the second prize a bridge set, and the "booby" prize a deck of cards and a little leather book. About 50 guests at tended. The regular dinner dance at the Elks' club will not be given Saturday night on account of the absence of their mu sician. Mr. Ray Hall, and his orches tra However, dinner will be served Sunday evening at the club, in place of the Saturday night dinner, and the regular dinner dance affairs will be resumed next week. At the reception last night following the Troutman-Updegraft wedding, the usual ceremony of cutting the cake and throwing the bouquet determined the fate of two of the guests unless all the signs fail.

EVENING CHAT BY RUTH CAMERON. Will all the kind folks who contrib uted suggestions for the benefit of my shy lady, please consider themselves heartily thanked both by her and me. I couldn't use all of your letters be cause some of them duplicated sug gestions and because some of them came after I had written on the sub ject, but I enjoyed them all very much. It was so pleasant, you see, to hear you folks speak and know you were still there. Every once in awhile I have a terrible wonder if I am playing to any empty house. If there could be such a thing as a blind and deaf actor who, because of his infirmity, would have no way of knowing how large and how well pleased his audi ences were I think he'd -feel the way I sometimes do. And if after the play some of his audience should come up and grasp 1 Money and Fame Come to the person having a clear brain and steady nerves. Grape-Nuts FOOD for brain and nerves. 'There's a Reason" him by the hand to let him know they had sat throuerh the play and had enjoyed it. I think' he'd feel the way I do when 1 receive letters from you folks.

I had the pleasure of being a. witness to a very charming little incident this noon. A pretty young srirl who came out of a restaurant just ahead of me, slip ped quietly up to a f'S cart horse which stood by the curbing, and shyly offered him a couple of lumps of su gar. The big creature mumbled the sugar up out of her hand with some thing as near delighted surprise a? a horse could show, and the girl stroked his big nose for a moment and then passed on. Such a little thing to do but euch a sweet one. And that isn't meant for a pun by any means. I think it's people who have time for little kindnesses like that who make the account of the world's joys and sorrows show a credit on the joy side. Are you one of them?

"While you are writing about how a man hates to smell perfumery on a woman," queried the masculine man who occasionally does me the honor to read my humble feminine fancies, "why don't you say something about gasoline? "YeF, that's what I mean gasoline. Don't you know there's lots of women have that smell hanging over them all the time. Anything to do with auto mobiles? No, I suppose it's from hav ing things cleaned. That's what they tell me anyhow. I don't know much about that. All I know is that some times after I dance or even just shake hands with a woman, my hands will smell of gasoline for the rest of the evening. Infernal, I call it. You hear girls talking about getting the smell of tobacco from dancing with a man who smokes. Xow I. put it up to you if tobacco isn't a much more decent smell than gasoline?" Reminds me of the hero of a maga zine story I read the other day. He found my lady's white glove lying on the table and in true chivalric style pressed it passionately to his lips. But modern cleaning methods were evidently too much for chivalry, for his most unchivalrie comment was "It smelled of gasoline." Those of us who are not millionaires must of necessity hie ourselves to the cleaner's occasionally. But I don't think that means we needs smell of gasoline. For the Rake of chivalry and Inci dentally common decency, instead of laying the cleansed waists or gloves promptly in the drawer where they will scent up everything else and in cidentally take upon themselves a half-sachet-half gasoline odor, that Is worse than straight gasoline, why not make It an invariable practice to hang them for a day or two in the fresh air? Seems to me that is a bit or trou ble that would bring in good six per interest in results.
