President Taft Will Go Far Into Northern Michigan. lie Will Inspect the Soo Locks This Afternoon. CROSSES T11E STRAITS. Will Make Marquette His Step ping Place Tonight. Favors Civil Service in the In ternal Revenue Bureau. Mackinaw City, Mich., Sept. 19. For the first time a president of the United States passed through here today en route to northern Michigan when the special train carrying President Taft and his party was taken aboard the ferry to cross the straits of Mackinac. In spite of his hard day yesterday in the southern part of the state the pres ident looked fresh and was evidently in good humor. His train stopped in Macki naw City only a few minutes. This af ternoon the president will be the guest of Sault Ste Marie, where he will lunch -with Governor O-sborn and in spect the locks at the Soo. Because of his knowledge of the work on the Panama canal and locks, the President is intensely interested in those at the Soo. Leaving the Soo in the evening, he will travel still farther Into the Michigan peninsula with Mar quette as his stopping place over night. Senator Townsend of Michigan accom panied the president north from De troit. Senator Smith did not come ow ing to the illness of his father, but will greet the president Thursday in Grand Rapids. For Extension of Civil Service. During his brief visit to the conven tion of the United States internal reve nue officers at Detroit yesterday, the president took occasion to say some thing regarding patronage, thus adding another political touch to his visit. "They have charged me with using patronage to accomplish something," he said. "If I have, I am not conscious of it. But I challenge the men who make the charge to come forward and join with me in legislation which will enable me to put every local officer, be he postmaster, internal revenue collec tor, cnstorrs collector or anybody eise. filling an office of the United States In any of the states of the Union under classified civil service. But they won't do it at least they won't do it now. 'If I had the making of the laws of this country the first thing I would do would be to include in the civil service every collector, deputy collector and ev erybody connected with the internal revenue system in local collections and T'ut the whole service on an effective, nonpartisan basis. I know that it would be a source of economy. I know that it would give the president a great leal more time to devote to other du ties; I know that it would save a great many congressmen their seats and I know that it would tend to the eleva tion of the public service." Bis Crowd from Canada, i Sault Ste Marie, Sept. 19. Early to day big crowds from Canada and north ern Michigan began to gather here to welcome President Taft, The weather promised to be all that could be de sired and the city was decorated in pnla attire for the occasion. The day's program includes a brief tour of the city by the president on his arrival, a review of 2,500 school children in the government park, after which the president was scheduled to ;nake a brief visit at the home of Gov ernor Osborn.

Elaborate preparations are being made by the students and faculty of Washburn college for the dedication by President Taft of the flag pole, the gift of the G. A. R. veterans which will be soon raised on the campus directly In front of the tower on the Thomas gymnasium. According to plans the address by 'President Taft will be given next week Wednesday, September 27. The flagpole will cost -between three and four hundred dollars and will be one of the finest poles in the state. It is planned to take President Taft from the Country club to the college where he will be received Dy a oouoie line of students extending from the main entrance to the campus to the platform near the flagpole. The presi dent will then deliver his address. As a matter of necessity the program will have to be cut short. Washburn students are raising the money to purchase a flag and streamer to float from the pole while the exer cises are in progress. B. B. Smyth is chairman of the G. A. R. committee who is working with the committee of the faculty and students of the college who are perfecting the arrangements. GEN. FIRMIN IS DEAD. He Came Near Being President of Haiti Recently. St. Thomas, D. W. I., Sept. 19. General Antenor Firmin, who deserted his post as Haitien minister at Lon don, to help overthrow President Simon of Haiti, died here today. Fir min led one of the two revolutionary parties and was a candidate for the presidency in succession to Simon. However, General Leconte, the other revolutionary chief, was the first to reach Port Au Prince after the suc cess of the revolution had been assured and he assumed the presidency before Firmin could muster sufficient strength to give him a fighting chance at the capital. For a time a conflict between the followers of Leconte and the adher ents of Firmin was feared but on Au gust 4, two days after Simon had left Port Au Prince. Firmin, who had re mained on board a vessel in the har bor of Port Au Prince, sailed for this city, where he has since remained. TO FIGHT BREAD TRUST Union Heads Will Spend $75,000 on a Bakery at Pittsburg. Kansas City, Sept, 19. Enough money has been assured union heads for the establishment of six "anti-bread trust bakeries." according to an announce ment made at today's session of the convention of the International Union of Bakery and Confectionary workers. Upon the first bakery, which will be built in Pittsburg, Pa., the unicn will expend $75,000. "The laboring people of this country purchase 95 per cent of the bread that is bought," said Otto E. Fischer of Chicago, secretary of the union. "With this element backing the union it is only a question of time until all bak eries will be unionized." GROSSCUP TO RETIRE. The Judge Will Quit the Bench First Week in October. Chicago, Sept. 19. United States Circuit Judge Peter S. Grosscup today announced that he would retire from the bench the first week in October. Buried Miners Are Freed. Leadville, Col., Sept, 13. The three miners, Fred Caskt, Deal Perle and Nat Jacobson. imprisoned in No. 5 shaft of the Morning Star mine on Carbon ate Hill for 60 hours by a cave-in. have been brought to the surface. The men, who were supplied with food and other necessities through four-inch pipe, driven down to them from the surface were apparently none the worse for their experience. LI U C H VORK AHEAD First Month of Supreme Court Session a Busy One. Many IntricateQuestions in Com merce to Be Decided. MORE THAN 20 CASES Involving Such Problems Are Advanced for Hearing. Power of the Interstate Com mission Is Challenged. Washington, Sept. 19. Many intri cate questions of interstate and intra state commerce promise to perplex the supreme court of the United States during the first month of its approach ing session. More than twenty cases involving such problems have been ad vanced by the court for hearing as soon after the opening of the term as possible and the decisions are awaited with concern among transportation in terests. Two exceedingly hard fought orders of the interstate commerce commission will come up for review probably within the first two weeks of the term. The extent of the powers exercised by the commission is chal lenged in both instances. The first of these Involves the so called "grain elevator cases." A long search of these cases is expected to bring forth a decision from the su preme court on the much disputed question as to whether the Interstate commerce commission possesses the power to prohibit railroads from pay ing to operators of elevators all com pensation for "elevating grain in transit." The commission issued orders em bracing such a prohibition. Missouri river cities are principally affected by the orders and the boards of trade from these points have joined with the railroads terminating there to test the validity of the commission's action. The United States circuit court for western Missouri has decided that the commission is without the power it sought to exercise. The second order of the commission to be questioned will be that provid ing for the reduction of the rates on lumber from northwestern states to cities in the Mississippi valley and east to what they were before November 1, 1907. In this case is involved the point of whether the federal courts may examine an order of the interstate commerce commission only when it is urged that it is confiscatory in its operation or also when it is urged that the commission's rates are in them selves unjust and unreasonable. Another issue that will be fought out early in the term is whether the stock yards in ths big cities are common car riers within the meaning of the inter state commerce laws. The question arose in a suit by the government to collect a penalty prescribed by the 28 hour law, regulating the care of live stock during Interstate transportation. This action was brought against the St. Louis National Stockyards. The United States circuit court of appeals for the Seventh circuit held that the stockyards was not a common carrier and approved a verdict in favor of the yards. One case pressed by the government against the Baltimore Ohio South western Railway company is expected to lead to a decision as to whether a railroad may transport sheep through a state into another state when the state through which the sheep pass is under quarantine in accordance with the law for scabies in sheep. Another case against the Baltimore Ohio Railroad company involves the validity of the indictment against the company for the alleged failure to alter its bridge across the Ohio river at Parkersburg, W. Va. In both cases the government lost belov-. The validity of the two-cent passen ger law in West Virginia will be ar gued shor'ly after court convenes and so will that of a similar law for Min nesota. The constitutionality of the McChord act of Kentucky, empower ing the railroad commission to fix in trastate rates also will be contested early. SUES FORBIG SUP One Atchison Firm Brings Ac tion Against Another. Claim Damages for Six Words in Advertisement. RESULT OF A FIRE. 'We Don't Have to Burn Out," Said Competitor. E. W. II. Lake, Defendant, One of Richest Kansas Merchants. For the publication of six words in a newspaper advertisement, E. W. H. Lake, a wealthy Atchison merchant, was Monday evening made defendant in libel and slander suits aggregating $100,000, which were tiled in the United States circuit court. The cases were brought by members of the firm of Clement Bechtel, competitors of Lake in the mercantile business in Atchi3oh. Two separate suits were filed by members of the firm. Each action sets out two distinct counts and on each individual count $25,000 damages are asked. The action resulted from one of Lake's advertisements in local newspapers the day following a serious loss from fire by the Clement Bech tel people. On the morning of June 16, this year, the big Clement Bechtel store was ruined by fire. At that time the stock of merchandise was valued at $43,500, with insurance in the amount of $25,000. The two firms in the pres ent action had for years been keen competitors and their store buildings were located in the same section of the town. Following the fire, the Atchison papers printed several col umns of news matter telling of the loss and insurance. It was the day following the fire that Lake published the ad that start ed the trouble. 'E. W. H. Lake does n't have to burn out." the ad read. Ac cording to the petition this statement created a sensation in Atchison and vicinity and the inference is alleged to have almost totally destroyed the other firm's credit and financial standing as well as impairing its so cial and business standing in the town. The advertisement was published in both of Atchison's daily papers. On each publication a separate count is charged. One of the suits is filed per sonally by Lloyd A. Bechtel, claiming $50,000 damages and the second action is brought by the firm claiming an equal damage as the result of the publication. The suits will probably be heard in Judge Pollock's court in Topeka some time in November.- Both of the plain tiffs' are residents of Kansas City, Mo., and the action brought in the federal courts will raise an interesting ques tion in relation to the federal laws governing libel. The Lake store in Atchison is one of the largest in that section of the state and E. W. H. Lake is one of the wealthiest merchants in ICansaS. BAiEBMJ. WEATUH. National Lea rue.

PUZZLE: GUESS WHAT'S GOING rNJf L JfeT Ilvk?biLe FATED At Y gAja fa As SHOE TRUST HIT The Federal Grand Jury Re turns an Indictment Against the Company and Its President and Directors UNDER SHERMAN LAW The Individuals Are Held to Be Criminally Liable. Collected a Royalty on All the Shoes Manufactured. Boston, Sept. 19. Two indictments were returned today by the federal grand jury against five officials and a large stockholder of the United Shoe Machinery company. The indictments allege conspiracy in restraint of trade under the Sherman act. The officials are Sidney W. Winslow of Orleans president; Edward P. Hurd of Newton, vice president, assistant treasurer, director and member of the executive committee, George W. Brown of Newton, vice president member of the executive committee and director William Barbour of New York, vice president member of the executive committee and Director Elmer P. Howe of Boston, counsel, member of the executive committee and director and Jas. J. Storrow, the largest stock holder and formerly a member of the executive committee and director. Mr. Storrow resigned from the board on Dec. 9, 1909, a month previous to the municipal election in which he waa a candidate for mayor. The penalty provided under the statutes is a fine of $5,000 or impris onment for one year or both. The six defendants did not appear today, but probably will plead within the next ten days. According to Wm. S. Gregg of the department of justice at Washington, who has been in charge of the case, the indictments charge that the six de fendants have been working through the instrumentality of the United Shoe Manufacturing company in a way to make them criminally liable Jinder the Sherman act. The second indictment also alleges that the carrying on of the business under the merger of three old shoe machinery manufacturing companies, which was effected in February, 1899, was engaging in a combination in re straint of trade; that it was a conspir acy in restraint of the trade of shoe manufacturers and that the whole transaction was a monopolization of interstate trade, all of which, it is al leged further, has had a pernicious ef fect on the public. The United Shoe Machinery company has branches in various parts of the wdrld. Case Started in April. Complaints made to the department of justice against the United Shoe Machinery company the socalled "Shoe Machinery Trust" brought the attention of the government to the case. It is understood that the corporation was charged with being a monopoly in restraint of trade. Infringements upon the patent laws were also alleged, it is said. Prompt action on the part of the government followed the receipt of the complaints. In April a few weeks after they had been filed William S. Gregg, special assistant to United States Attorney General Wickersham, began a government probe. Special Agents George E. Kelleher and James L. Bruff assisted Mr. Gregg in his search for evidence. The result of the work of these gov ernment officials was that on July 26 of this year Attorney General Wicker sham ordered United States Attorney Asa P. French and Mr. Gregg to pre sent evidence obtained to the federal grand jury that reported today. History of the Trust. The United Shoe Machinery com pany came into being in 1889. It was founded by Sydney W. W'inslow, its present head, who learned shoe mak ing in a small factory in Salem, Mass., ON. owned by his father, who to secure advantages of combining allied inter ests formed a corporation embracing the three leading companies then mak ing shoe machinery Goodyear Sewing Machine company. Consolidated and McKay Lasting company and McKay Shoe Machinery company were con solidated. The company was reorgan ized in 1905 and subsequently auxil iary companies sprang up in Canada, Great Britain, France and Germany. That same year the manufacturing of all its shoe making machinery was concentrated in one large factory at Beverly, Mass. The United States Shoe Machinery company now employs 4.000 hands, who turn out 20,000 shoe machines yearly. The royalty system, by which the corporation disposes of its machines, allows a shoe manufacturer to lease machines, paying rentals in royalties on every shoe made. A manufacturer may buy machinery if he gets It from the United Shoe Machinery company, providing he buys his "findings" such as wire nails and eyelets from the company. It is claimed that the royalty paid the United company is about 2 cents per pair of shoes. Last year the company brought suit against Thomas G. Plant, a Boston shoe manufacturer, charging patent infringements. Plant sold out his shoe machinery plant and patent rights to the United company after a bitter fight. A few months later an independent company the Bresmahan Shoe Ma chinery company of Lynn, Mass. waa also purchased by the United, com pany. Tlie Government Probe, The next important happening in the life of the United Shoe Machinery company was the unexpected govern ment probe. The special grand jury was called August 1. Government agents stated before serving subpoenas that the question of leases would be a vital question for the grand jury to consider. The jury made an extensive investigation, sitting four and five davs a week during the entire month of August. Announcement of the climax in the government's inquiries was coincident with a proposal for a state investiga tion by Governor Eugene N. Foss. a Democrat, who in a message to the legislature, which was then in session, pointed out the need of a statute to reach the alleged monopoly. The leg islative committee on rules said that an anti-monopoly bill already enacted covered the situation. Governor Foss, then turning to At torney General Swift, demanded an immediate investigation of the meth ods of the Massachusetts shoe machin ery industry. Attorney General Swift then asked the governor for evidence. The gov ernor replied it was not the duty of his office to supply evidence. Mean while the attorney general consulted with several shoe men, but Governor Foss again urged the legislature to take action, accompanying .a second message with a letter from the presi dent of a large Massachusetts shoe manufacturing company relating con ditions in the industry. A State Hearing. A state hearing on the matter fol lowed and Representative Bogue from the big shoe center at Lynn intro duced a bill in the house of representa tives providing for a recess committee to begin a probe in Massachusetts. At the hearing Louis D. Brandeis of Boston, who has assisted the govern ment in some of its trust cases, pre sented a bill, drawn up, he said, for Attorney General Swift, which provid ed for drastic regulations, prohibition of royalties and leases, with prison penalties for the violation. President Charles H. Jones, president of a large shoe company, in reading the bill at a hearing declared that if it was enacted into law it would mean the saving of 5 cents on each pair of shoes manufactured. At the hearing Charles S. Choate. an attorney, declared that the United Shoe Machinery company had been doing everything in its power to aid the gov ernment agents in their investigation. The order providing for the recess in vestigation was killed in the house, on the ground that the government wai already conducting an investigation against the Shoe Machine company. SUES POWDER TRUST: Independent Company Claims Dam ages of $1,619,957. Trenton, Sept. 19. The Buckeye Pow der company, which formerly manufac tured powder at Peoria, 111., today brought euit in the United States cir cuit court here for damages against the I. E. Dupont de Nemours Powder company and a number of its subsidiary concerns which are familiarly referred to as the "powder trust." The Buckeye company claims that its business has been injured by the practices of the socalled powder trust and -places its actual damages at $1. 119,957 and also asks for $5u0,000 puni tive damages. Plaintiff again asks that these dam ages be multiplied by three as author ized under the Sherman act. The bill of particulars filed by the Buckeye company sets out in detail the circumstances under which it is claimed the Buckeye company suffered as a result of the practices of the Du pont concern which practices, it is charged, were in direct violation of tha Sherman anti-trust law. DATE FOR EALLQON RACE Will Be Held in Topeka on October 12th. The inter-city balloon races from Topeka will be held October 12. This date has been approved by all entries concerned. In this race six balloons will enter in an attempt to win the long distance cup for 1911 and in an effort to win the inter-city prizes.

Topeka will have two gas bags the Topeka I and Topeka II. Kansas City will have one the Kansas City I. Salt Lake City will have one the Salt Lake City I. This date in October will be set aside as the day for the big event. Of ficers of the Western Aero association in Topeka say that October is an ideal month for flights. No Btorms to in terfere and ideal conditions for a long distance trip. The members are look ing forward to the inter-city races with enthusiasm.

Com ing across the Straits of Mackinac this morning the president stood on the upper deck of the ferry for nearly an hour, so when he came out on th rear platform of this car at St. Ignace and at this place he congratulated the people on the lung-fililng breezes they enjoy. The president today sent the follow ing telegram to Mrs. Edmond H. Madi son, wife of Congressman Madison, who died yesterday: "I was deeply pained to lenrn at Detroit of the shocking death of Judge Madison. Allow me to. express to you my sympathy in your great lows." At Trout Iike Republican State Chairman Knox and State Senator Fowler of Michigan, boarded the presi dent's train to make the trip Into th9 "Soo" with him. Washington. Sept. 19. Senator Rob ert M. LaFollette has sent a message to Mrs. Madison. The senator and Judge Madison had been closely asso ciated since the stormy session at which the Payne tariff bill was passed, and Senator LaFollette had a high opinion of the Kansas representative, personally and as a public man. "Kansas and the country have cause to mourn the death of Judge Madison." said Senator LaFollette. His ability and honesty had so impressed the house of representatives as to give him a place of power and influence such bh has been attained by few men in so short a time. His patriotic, courageous, forceful and tactful work as a member of the Ballinger-Pinohot investigating committee and as a member of the com mittee that conducted the more recent investigation of the sugar trust, stands out conspicuously. He was a firm be liever in the principle of true repre sentative government and as a political leader and a representative he made a record of service to the people which his family and the district that elect ed him to congress can contemplate with pride and satisfaction."

McDonald Insists that the London club post a forfeit to go to the fighters in case the mill is not pulled off. ADDOTTJS BACK. Says Cooley Has Mormon Town Fans Hog Tied. Hard Work to Keep Froni Win ning Pennant. CLEANS UP BIG KOLL. Cooley-Abbott Combination Still Gets the Money. Cubs Buy Kansas State League Recruit for Fancy Price. Just at a time when the Topeka fans are wondering how the club of last season would stack up against the one finishing the season this year. Spencer Arthur Abbott drops into town from the Union association and re ports that Dick Cooley cleaned up $12,000 at Salt Lake City, finished in second place and has the Mormon vil lage thrown and hog-tied. But that is just the surface dope. Abb insists that it wouldn't have been half so hard to cop the pennant as to finish second. Boss Dick was educated on the pennant copping stunt in To peka and would have sacrificed a few thousand rather than take the pen nant at the salt sea the first year on the job. Cooley took a vacation as soon as his old captain, Abb, showed up to play first base and manage the club. Upon leaving he threatened his manager's life if he got into first place. But Abb couldn't help it once and twice was within a half game of it again. Great Falls was leading, so Abb figured he could muss up Missoula while the leaders trimmed Boise. He waded in and won three and Boise upset the dope, trimming the leaders every day. One night Abb got the returns and found his club in the lead. He also got a night letter as long as his arm from Cooley. Then he lost every game for a week and got his men to think- ng he was the rottenest manager in the world. With one run needed to win, he continued the hit and run sig nals, forcing the men into double plays. They thought he was a beauty all right. Abb is authority for the statement that Cooley spent part of his vacation In Topeka. The colonel wears his gum shoes in these parts for nobody heard him come or go. Personally, taking Abb s word for it, he is strong as horseradish in the polygamists' camp and Abb's word is gilt-edged. He got solid on his first day by pulling off one of his old To peka stunts of stealing second, third and home. On the home stretch he crossed the plate without a slide and the green pitcher was still winding up. Of course it was the run needed to tie the contest and after that Salt Lake won easily. Dick Cooley stayed up all night tell ing how Abb always did that sort of thing. Then the last day of the sea son Spencer walloped one over the fence in the fourth inning and went to the bench. He let a catcher finish the game at first. They don't know he ever did strike out. Moreover, Abb sent the prize pitcher of the Kansas State league out to Coo ley. He was Dressen. The lad won 17 games and lost three for the Salt Lake City club and Cooley sold him to the Cubs for $2,500. There's still a lot of stuff !n the Cooley-Abbott combination. GOOD RACES AT DETROIT. No Attempt Made to Stop Betting at Detroit Tracks. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 19. The ex citement in the opening day's races of Detroit's second grand circuit meeting at the Michigan state fair grounds was furnished by the 2:17 trot. Six hotly contested heats had to be raced be fore Pansy Silver was able to capture the long end of the purse. All the other victories were achieved in straight heats. Pansy Silver, with Nuckols up, took the first two heats of the 2:17 trot from Hannah Louise, by narrow mar gins. At the start of the third heat she broke, ran an eighth of a mile and finished a poor fifth. The exertion of controlling his mare was too much for Nuckols and he collapsed after passing the wire. Hodson, who succeeded Nuckols in the fourth heat, held the Silver mare In front to the head of the stretch, only to have her go into the air again and finish last, McJ winning in a game drive. McJ took the fifth, with Pansy Sil ver close up. All other starters were ruled off for the sixth and final round. Pansy Silver lost her stride at once and was soon a dozen lengths behind. Right there McMahon made the fatal mistake of easing up with Mc.T, for when Hodson brought his mare to her feet she settled down to work, caught the gelding at the head of the stretch, drove him into a break almost at the wire and won by a nose. In both heats of the 2:05 pace, Hod son lay in behind the leader with Major Brino, but the stallion won out by close decisions. There was no attempt to Interfere with betting at the track. The case against the officers of the Detroit Driv ing club, under whose auspices the first meeting was held and who were ar rested on the last day of, the previous races as a result of an anti-betting cru sade, will be heard in the circuit court next week. Hutchinson Races Begin. Hutchinson. Kan., Sept. 19. The fair opened with a record breaking at tendance for the opening day.

Ha. the Kaws have won another. The last was on August 28. Count it yourself but it is something like 21 days. It remained for Chat Brown, the Lyons recruit, to get his control in hand and break the Topeka losing streak. They hit him often but not in bunches and with ten bingles got only two runs. He is credited with showing the Hopefuls some new stuff in the slabmen's repertory. The Kaws did their first hitting in several weeks and drove Owens and Northrup off the hill but Plympton, who was suspected of having little be side a name and a glove, held them quite safely thereafter. The ability of Topeka to take one from the Hopefuls just about indicates that Des Moines never will be able to catch up in the race for seventh place. The Kaws will take some more at home and but there's some class to racing for seventh. Omaha takes second honors in the error column. Topeka broke the world's record with 12 in one game but the Hogs ran it hard yesterday when they piled up ten large one3 be hind Fentress and allowed Denver eight runs with six hits. Lincoln and Pueblo both lost, the Sioux pounding Jackson and Routt hard and the Drummers calling on Lincoln for a brace of four errors. Jimmy Cockman and Fred Apple gate have been given the tinware by Despaln and Unglaub. Unglaub him self has been playing third since pull ing Cockman off, and it is suspected Cockman was one of the fellows Bob considered solid ivory. Both men drew unconditional releases. Joe Hendrix leaped into prominence in the National league pennant race yesterday when he beat the Chicago Cubs three to two and kept them from advancing on New York. The erst while Salina and Cheyenne pitcher's achievement is all the more notable when it is known that he held Chance's great fighting machine to one hit up to the ninth inning. It did not score in this inning, but had succeeded in pushing two over previously without the semblance of a hit. Pittsburg sent in Gardner, another new man, for the second game, but he was batted from the box, Chicago winning. St. Joseph News-Press: Jack Fu gate, who had kept the Drummers in check up to their half of the seventh, was touched up to a frazzle in that in ning. The home boys simply mur dered the pill for Jack. His shoots looked to them Just as "ham and" does to a "tourist" and they pushed over nine runs on eight hits and an error. Everybody but Babb got a hit in that frame and Kelly made two of the hits and two of the tallies. It was a marathon affair with the hit-and-run sign hanging out in plain sight and the Kaws absolutely helpless to pull it down. Naturally everyone was thank ful when the session was over. Jack Haskell was aching to call the contest long before he did, but the score would have reverted back unless the inning was played and he waited until Reil ly made the last out with a fly to King. Sioux City Journal: After a delay of a month, Robert ("Dixie") Mitchell, who has had the question of his status before J. H. Farrell, secretary of the National Association of Baseball leagues, received a telegram yesterday informing him that he was the prop erty of the Des Moines team. Early in the season Mitchell was sus pended by President John F. Higglns of the Des Moines club. Mitchell be lieved that this action was taken by the Des Moines management to save expenses. He appealed his case to Secretary Farrell, who Informed him that he would be granted a temporary release. The player then signed up with the Sioux City club. He was re leased three weeks ago because of the difficulties involved in the question of ownership. Sioux City Journal: Peggy Moore, 1 who was secured through the draft route by the Sioux City management from the Portsmouth club in the Ohio State league Saturday, will be one of the largest slabbers who has worn a Western league uniform when he re ports to the Packers next spring. In addition to his size, which is 6 feet 4 inches, Moore is one of the best minor league pitchers in the country. Last season he won twenty-three games and lost eleven. The Ports mouth club at that time won the pen nant. With him were "Dick" Breen and Walter Miller, who have been with the Champa this year. Moore is something of a hitter also, having made a batting average of .340 for the season. Those who have seen him work predict that he will set the league afire next year. Another recruit from the Nebraska league appeared in the warmup at Riverside park yesterday afternoon. He was a catcher with the Seward club and made a good showing. In prac tice he was a likely looking youngster, apparently having the "wing" and speed necessary for a successful back stop. Payne, who was secured from the Tork club in the Nebraska league. has been doing some sensational in filed work in practice during the past week. His regular station is first base. Jimmy Cockman Canned. Lincoln, Neb. Sept. 19. The Lin coln baseball management announces the unconditional release of Third Baseman James Cockman and Pitcher Fred Applegate." Cockman is one of the veterans of the club, playing here three seasons. Applegate was secured at the beginning of the present season. TWO TENURED Lowe Sprains Ankle in Practice! Held on Prairie. Johnson Falls on Ball Breaking His Collar Bone. DR1VEI1 WATCHES MEN Changes Them From Place to Place to Note Ability. Cote Expected to Bring New Rule Plays From East. Cecil Lowe, one of the most promis ing candidates for a half back position on the Washburn football team, sprain ed an akle during signal running last night and will be thrown out of the training for a week or more. Lowe was captain of the track team last spring and was a substitute on the football team of 1910. Leland Johnson, one of the new as pirants for a position engaged in his first attempt to learn the game, broke a collar bone and probably will be out of tl.e squad for the season. These two accidents marred the early training and in the injury of Lowe materially checked the develop ment of a baekfield. On account of the soaked condition of the athletic field, practice was held on the prairie field southwest of the college buildings. The sod is uneven and full of holes on this tract. Lowe stepped into one of these holes in a sprint from position turning his ankle over. Johnson sustained his fracture while practicing falling on the Dan. Warren Crumbine. a quarter back of last season, was given most of the work at that station last night alter nating with Carl Smiley, the crack basketball player and quarter of last season's freshmen team. Both of them sent their teams through a series of formations being perfected by Coach Driver. Captain Burkhart, Lowe. Smilev and McCafferty ran from half positions during the tentative workout and showed speed with Dean Rogers, a freshman of last season and brother of Neal Rogers, for two years member of the team, running at full. Dean Rogers a big fellow and fast. He showed up well last fall and is expected to show Varsity class this season. Neal Rogers and John Shaw, a sopho more recruit, looked big enough at guard while Titus, an old player, and Smith Bishop filled in at tackle posi tions to advantage. Mclntire, a promis ing man of last season who failed to develop as expected was out for the first time this year and was used at end with Rankin at the other. This lineup looked good at a casual glance and gave indications of round ing into a very fair machine. The men ran in one group but a short time, however, changes being rapidly made by Driver in order to get a look at all his candidates. In all about 30 men were out in uni form. Ten of these were freshmen. Leo Johnson, entering from Osage City, is a prospective player who showed to advantage in the workout. Braden Johnstone, a member of last year's freshmen team, is expected to arrive in a d.-y or so and give some one a hard contest for a line position. Herbert Cote, elected to assist William Driver, has not yet reported in Topeka. He comes from Harvard and is expected to unload some of the new rule play as it is delivered in the east. Cote never earned any letters at Harvard but is said to be well fitted for gymnasium instruc tion and to know considerable about the outdoor sports. CHIEF BENDER IS IX BED. Connie Mack's Fans Worry Over Ill ness of Pitcher. Philadelphia, Sept. 19. Baseball en thusiasts who follow the fortunes of the world's champions were a bit dis turbed today to learn that "Chief" Bender, the star Indian pitcher is con fined to his bed with the grip. Be cause of their commanding lead the "Athletics" fully expect to win the American League pennant and are planning for the world's series. Bend er's illness may disarrange these plans unless he quickly responds to treat ment. Connie Mack said today he expected to use the "Chief" in the coming De troit series and then rest him up for the prospective series with the Na tional League pennant winners. He still hopes that he will be able to carry out his plans. ADVERTISING TALKS. (Continued from Page One.) It was not so in this announce ment of Gimbel Brothers.

CIRCUS HERE THURSDAY Sells-Iloto Shows AVill Slake Annual Visit This Week. As every season rolls around we generally find the proprietors of big tented attractions vying with each other In order to produce the most novel act. be it either what is com monly known in circus parlance as a thriller or pure comedy. There is something- irresistibly fun ny in the laughable act introduced by the Sells-Floto people this year. It is that of a real battle with the flames by the associate clowns of that organ ization. A regular fire engine is used of the most approved make and it may add interest to know that it is. drawn by perhaps what are considered the most celebrated team of fire horses on the continent, being those who journeyed to Ixmdon a few years ago and wrest ed the honors from all competitors at the series of fire drills given there. A building is discovered on fire in the center of the main tent. The regu lar alarm is given and the fire engine rushes in followed by the clowns who come armed with soda water siphons, watering cans and other such para phernalia. Their ludicrous efforts to extinguish the flames is said to be about the funniest thing that has ever been introduced to the patrons of the circus. The Sells-Kioto circus will give two performances here on Thursday. Sep tember 21. The price of admission, as most people know, has been cut in half this year so that for 25 cents one is permitted to see this great circus in Us entirety. SENATORS ARE NAILED. Eight 31 embers Will Represent Sen ate at Madison IMneral. Utica, N. T., Sept. 19. Vice Presi dent Sherman has appointed the fol lowing senators to represent the United States senate at the funeral of Congressman Madison, who died at Fort Dodge, Kan., Monday: Curtis and Bristow of Kansas, Clarke of ..rkansas, Stone of Missouri, Dixon of Montana, Crawford of South Dakota and Kern of Indiana. Hutchinson, Kan., Sept. 19. The Southwest Kansas Republican associ ation, in session here, adjourned upon learning of the death of Representa tive Maditon. Resolutions of sorrow were adopted. The secretary was di rected to send a telegram of condo lence to Mrs. Madison and to L. A. Madison, brother of the congressman. Senator Joseph L. Bristow said: "I am shocked at the news of Judge Madison's death. I can hardly believe it. lie was a man of robust physique, and I never heard him complain of illness or any physical ailment. In his death, Kansas loses one of her strong progressive leaders. Ke was a brilliant campaigner, and a clear thinker, and his highest ambition waa to serve the people faithfully and ef ficiently. His great service was in the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation and his report in that case will stand as a mon ument to his great ability and his fidel ity to truth and righteousness. "I fee! his death as a great per sonal loss." CAR DROPS 100 FEET. Two Persons Killed and One Badly Injured In Kansas City. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 19. Two per sons were killed and a third probably fatally injured when a Strang car leaped from the tracks and plunged over a hundred-foot hill at Fifth and Bluff streets here last night. There were but the three passengers In the car when the accident occurred. The dead are: DENNIS ICAIIFMANN, a passenger. MORTORMAN H. E. MYERS. Conductor William J. Kaiser waa badly hurt. The car left the track at a sharp curve on an incline. Several hundred feet before the car reached the turn It became evident that the motorman had lost control of his brakes. Realizing this. O. C. Colt, a cousin of Russell Colt, husband of Ethel Barrymore, who was a passenger, dropped off the rear platform to safety. But Kaufman, the remaining passen ger, decided to cast his lot with the car. Kaiser and Myers made frantic at tempt to stop the speeding vehicle but their efforts were futile. Bounding from the rails at a terrific speed, the car described a complete somersault before it landed at the foot of the rock cliff. The dead and injured were buried under the debris.

Nervous Bridegroom of Six Months Says He Is Afraid. El Dorado, Kan., Sept. 19. Alleging that his wife, whom he took for better or worse but six short months ago, dis played various poisons on her kitchen table when she prepared food, and taunted him for not being a man of spirit, J. H. Havner, Potwin "newly wed," filed suit for divorce In the dis trict court against Lottie Havner. They were married March 4, 1911. Havner's most startling assertion is in regard to the poisons. He affirms her familiarity with these deadly drugs caused him to be nervous, prevented him from enjoying his meals and some times prevented him from partaking of the family repast. "When she waa baking pies, she had strychnine on the table," the husband's petition reads, "and at another time she had rough on rats on the table where she was mixing bread, and at another time she had a bottle of paris green on a table where she was mixing bread and preparing other edibles."

It seems that Mr. Brown has no faith in the banking institu tions and has always kept his money buried about his place somewhere. He has been so discreet about it that not even his own family knows where it is kept. Mr. Brown had occasion to go to Laton business and on his return home he found that $:.,500 was missing from its accustomed place. So far he has been unsuccessful in locating the thief.

Albert Marshall Gives Version of State Fair Trouble. To the Editor of the Topeka State Journal: For the information of the many friends of Marshall's band, I take this method of informing them of the true condition of affairs aa they exist. In the first place Marshall's band did not make any objection to any ar rangements which the State Fair as sociation may have made through its secretary, Mr. Cook, regarding their music. Personally we regard Liber ates band as a very high class organ ization, and, composed of very fine gentlemen, and, they were exceeding ly friendly with us on their recent vis it to our city. The statement made by the press that we refused to play with less than 50 members is false. The board of di rectors of the fair association had figures from us for 25 men at $2 per man per day, after they voluntarily made a proposition to hire 20 men at $3 per day per man. This proposi tion was flatly turned down by Mr. Cook. The statement made that we demanded our money in advance is also false. We have never had an op portunity to demand any money from Mr. Cook except for a bill for services a year old. The band also played a full week's engagement a few years ago for the old fair association for which it never received one cent al though the members laid off from their daily avocations to play the job. Mr. Cook has repeatedly told us that he would not under any circumstances employ Marshall's band, although, nothing can be said against Marshall's band and we have donated our ser vices time and time again to help pay state fair expenses .when they have gone in the hole. That we are a union organization should not be used against us, as, we were forced into the union in order to retain the services of several or chestra men who were members of the American Federation of Musicians. The daily papers claim there were 133,000 paid admissions to our last fair. Say 5 0;000 of them were visitors from outside the city. Is it fair to ask Marshall s band to turn out with 20 or 25 men, wear their uniforms and advertise themselves as Marshall's when they could turn out 55 uniform ed men if they could get employment for them? Does it not hurt the repu- Angry Wife Also Gets $5,000 Damages from "Other Woman." Abilene. Kan.. Sept. 19. Mrs. W. J. Rowe. wife of the former district clerk, received a divorce and $750 alimony, and also Judgment for $5,000 against Miss Minnie Rice for alienation of her husband's affections. Mr. Rowe did not contest the suit. He recently re signed as clerk of the court. Renewing Complexions By Absorption tation of the band and the city, to only turn out with 20 men? The vis itors would naturally say, "We have a larger band than that at home." We have several professional musi cians in the band and we practice twice a week the year around. We are playing the same standard programs that all the high class bands of the country'are playing. To maintain this high standard of proficiency it is necessary that we use a full instru mentation in playing all concert work. By dividing the band in two you sim ply handicap it that much. We are the only amateur band in the country which makes any effort to maintain this high standard, and, if we can not have the support of the citizens, the press and those who hire bands of this class, we may as well disband. I am informed that Liberati's band received $2,400 for its services. We could have furnished just as good a band for less than half that amount, and, at the fair a year ago would have been glad to have furnished a vastly superior hand at a saving of several hundred dollars to the fair association. Just because we are a home production we should not be knocked. Almost every time in the last few years that we have been called on to play we have been asked for part of the men, and can not get a contract for the entire band. Even the Seml-Centennial only contracted for part of the band, but we turned out the best band that has paraded the streets of Topeka for some time and did not have the entire membership either. The people of Topeka do not seem to understand or appreciate the fact that Marshall's band is an ama tuer organization. With the exception of a few of its members the entire number making up its membership are men who work for their living, and when they lay off for the purpose of playing with the band they lose that much time and money from their usual avocations, at which some are employed during the day and some during the night. As a member of the band who has devoted his time to the good of the organization for more than twenty years. I am in favor under the present conditions of retiring from the band business and allowing Mr. Cook and a few more persons who do not live in Topeka and other men from the out side to come in and dictate to the peo ple and the press of the city and give to it and them just what Mr. Cook and the rest of the nonresidpnts think it and they need in the way of music. 1 Hoping that this explanation will be of assistance in placing Marshall's band in a true liht and of refuting some of the false charges circulated against it. I am verv trulv. ALBERT H. MARSHALL. The Best Service FOR YOU Either Local ot LONG DISTAKC3 If your complexion is marred with blotches, moth patches, pimples or freckles, it's useless to putter with powders and paints, lotion, creams and things, in an effort to get rid of the trouble. Unless you have some ability as an artist you'll mar your appearance still more. The new and rational way is to take off the complexion itself, with all its offensive marks. Just get an ounce of pure mercolized wax at the druggist's and use at night same as cold cream. Remove next morning with water and soap, following with dash of cold water. The mercolized wax absorbs the half dead scarf skin in flaky particies, so gradually no one guesses you're treat ing your face unless it be by the re sult, which is truly wonderful. There's nothing like it for restoring a natural, healthy and beautiful complexion. Aunt Sally. Fire Fngineers Convene. Milwaukee, Sept. 19.

Rural Mail Carriers Meet. Milwaukee, Sept. Rural mail car riers to the number of about 150 and rep resenting a membership of 42.000 opened a four days meeting in Milwaukee today. The subject of good roads is perhaps the most important to come before the meet- About two months aero my hands started to crack open and bleed, the skin would scale oft, and the good flesh would burn and itch dreadfully. When my hands first started to snt sore, there were small blisters like water blisters which formed. They itched dreadfully, it Just seemed as tbouph I could tear the skin all off. I would scratch them and the skin would peel off, and the flesh would be all red and crack open and bleed. It worried ma Very much, as I had never had anything tha matter with my skin. I was so afraid I would have to give up my employment. "I consulted my doctor, and he said he didn't think it would amount to anything. But it kept getting worse. One day I saw a piece in one of the papers about a lady who had the same trouble with her hands. She had used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and was cured. I decided to try them, and my hands were all healed before I had used one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment. I am truly thnnkful forthe good results from the Cuticura Soap and ointment, for thanks to them I was cured, and did not have to lose a day from work. I have had no return of the skin trouble."

Like most hopes, Carl Morris has finally demonstrated beyond peradven ture that he will never materialize. Conditions si?m to be improving a bit in Mexico. Independence Day was recently celebrated there without riots and bloodshed. Mayor Gaynor's stock with the fair sex has probably increased several thousand per cent. He says that most any woman a man happens to meet is too good for him. Xor is Mayor Gaynor very far off. During an automobile race at the New York state fair, nine innocent by standers were killed by one of the ma chines which ran amuck. This is mere evidence, if any were needed, that automobile racing should be abol ished. If either of the aviators, Ward and Fowler, who are trying to fly across the continent, is successful and wins the $30,000 that has been offered for such a flight, he will probably find himself deeply in debt beyond that pum for the repairs it was necessary to make to his machine. It has finally been concluded by the police in British Columbia that the men 'who robbed the branch of the Bank of Montreal at New Westmins ter, were "experts." That is just what every one else in the world concluded immediately on reading that these rob bers got away with $315,000 in cash. A ledger of a retail merchant of seventy-five years ago which is in the possession of a Kansan shows that the prices of all commodities were won derfully cheaper then than now. And it also shows that the wages paid in those days were even smaller is com parison with the prices than are the wages of today with the present cost of things. Governor Dix of New Tork says that the people of that state want the priv ilege of witnessing boxing bouts. That they are not very keen for it, though, at $20 per seat was made evident by the smallness of the crowd at the Flynn-Morris go. Maybe, though, New Yorkers were discerning enough to size up Morris beforehand as a lemon of large proportions. To those who have shall be given, etc. Gaby Dos Lys, the French dancer, who is reputed to have cost Manuel his job as king of Portugal, has ar rived in New York with sixty dresses, and as many hats, pairs of slippers and stockings to match, and also a small matter of $320,000 worth of jewels. She has a theatrical engagement in this country which will pay her $4,500 a week. Something akin to robbing Peter to pay Paul. Because of the high cost of living in Germany the government has decided to cut in half the freight rates on potatoes, fresh vegetables, corn, fodder and grain and t reduce materially the rate on sea fish. If this reduction in rates causes a large deficiency in the operation of the rail roads, the people who are now getting the advantages of these reduced rates, will have to provide for this defi ciency through increased general taxes, as the railroads of Germany are operated by the government. Chicago's vice commission's book has been held up at the postoffice in that town until higher authorities shall determine whether or not it is fit matter to go through the mails. There is no probability that this book has been printed for promiscuous circula tion or for the purpose of furnishing the general public with reading mat ter. It is one of the most valuable sociological documents that has ever been prepared. Yet finicky govern ment officials doubt the propriety of permitting this book to be circulated among people who are Interested in it, not because some of its details are "obscene" ln'that they present the re volting conditions that have developed in Chicago's underworld, but because they can get valuable information first hand on conditions that need to be remedied and which are common in more or less aggravated forms in every city in the country There is no such squeamishness, however, on the part of the postoffice authorities in barring from the mails such books as "Three Weeks," which, while not actually presenting obscene matter, are more indecently suggestive than any bald statment of facts describing the conditions surrounding vice in the big and little cities. EDMOXD II. MADISON. Kansas and the nation, as well, have suffered a distinct loss in the sudden taikng away of Edmond H. Madison, member of -.he house of representa tives from the Seventh Kansas Con gressional district. Judge Madison was beginning to loom up large in the na tional political arena. Indeed, it might be said that he had just begun a politi cal career that was certain of develop ing into large proportions, a serviceable career, too, one that would redound with great credit to himself and be of benefit to the people of the wonderful commonwealth that had honored itself in honoring him; and of benefit, too, to the people of the whole country. Few men have ever served in con gress such a brief spell and risen to such a commanding prominence as had Mr. Madison, "Ed" as he was familiar ly called hy the men who loved him and who were loved by him in turn. He was one of ifie original Republican "insurgents" in the house when that insurgency was started against some of the archaic features in the rules gov erning that body. But he was not so small-minded a man as to charge the conditions that had developed In the house solely to '"Uncle Joe" Cannon. He believed that some of the rules ought to be changed because they were wrong. And he worked as assiduously as any one with whatever weapons or in whatever combinations that came to hand for the changes he and others deemed necessary. The notoriety and prominence that came to the "insur- J gents" in this memorable fight did not turn Mr. Madison's head. He did not then begin to insurge against any and everything, against most if not all of the principles and policies that have made the Republican party great. He never played to the galleries nor did the applause of an unthinking crowd sound good to his ears. He fought, in the special congress two years ago, as hard as any man could for further tar iff reductions than those in charge of the Payne-Aldrich bill were willing to concede, but when his fight for these reductions were lost he did not be come peeved. He -oted for the bill on its final passage, not because he believed the measure to be a perfect one, or fulfilling to the letter the party pledges in the premises, but because it was the best tariff reviiion bill that could be obtained vindi'r the conditions then prevailing in CMijress, and was a more reasonable tarifi law than the one on the statute books. With the same sort of justness did Mr. Madison meet all questions. He was a progressive Republican of the right type. A definition of that kind of a Republican was given some time ago by President Taft when he said: "A progressive Republican is one who recognizes existing and concrete evils and is in favor of practical and definite steps to eradicate them." Judge Madison stood for progress in all things. But he did not believe that such progress was going to be brought about by a tremendous beating of the tom-toms and a wild shrieking from the house-tops that every man in America was a crook, a thief, a robber, a grafter and everything else that a man should not be with the exception of the few who might think as he did on certain political questions. It was because Ed Madison was sober minded, fair and honest in all things, coupled with a remarkable ability and untiring energy, that he had risen so rapidly among the real statesmen of the day. It's too bad the last call was sounded for him so soon. There are not as many men like him in public life as there should be, and at this par ticular time when strong minds, when honest minds are needed to grapple with and grasp the vexed problems that are pressing for solution. THERE'S A SILVER LINING. The stock market is still in the doldrums. Prices continued to decline last week. An enormous volume of liquidation appears to be going on in the marts of stocks and bonds. But ro longer are the operations in the stock market a certain barometer of the business and financial conditions throughout the country. The pessim ism that prevails in Wall street just now is not common to the nation, and especially in this western section of the country, where all lines of trade are not only in a normal condition. In some instances they are better than normal, and this despite the fact that the general run of crops did not approach the bumper variety. As a matter of fact there is every reason for encouragement that a reasonably prosperous era is at hand, and that all business in the country is being con ducted these days on a sound basis, even if it is not as active as it has been. Important facts which show the straws blowing tn this direction are pointed out by Henry Clews, the New York banker, in his weekly financial review, as follows: "On the other hand the situation is not without features of encourage ment. Our foreign trade is in excel lent condition, a large increase in ex ports serving to strengthen our credit abroad and to bring our international relations into more normal position. The banking situation is also much better than some months ago. There is less overexpansion of credit, and the banks are in a generally sound condi tion. Land speculation at the west has been checked, and neither bankers nor merchants in that part of the country share the excessive pessimism which prevails in New York. In some direc- tions the situation is already working out its own cure. Liberal concessions have been been made in iron and steel, with the result of materially stimulat ing the demand. It is true that the Steel Corporation is only working about 70 per cent of its capacity, nev ertheless its total product is almost as large as at any time during its history. There is little reason for complaint as to the volume of the steel business, though profits may have been consider ably curtailed. Similar conditions pre vail In the textile trades. Prices of cotton goods have been reduced, and the result is a much wider distribu tion both at wholesale and at retail. In this direction at least, consumers are already getting the benefit cf low er prices. Cotton mills are reopening and there is every indication that the crisis' in this industry has been passed, especially with cheaper cotton in pros pect. Better orders from China have already resulted. I' is also worth not ing that labor, though undoubtedly very restless, is showing some discre tion and is slow in enforcing its de mands at a most inopportune time. Financial conditions are certainly against making additional increases in wages, and public opinion is not likely to support the men in any further de mands, with conditions as unsatisfac tory as they are. JOVRIUL ENTRIES Many a man who does his best doesn't do much. About the only coat that is not ex pensive is one of tan. They don't seem to realize it, but nobody pays any attention to the chronic knockers. It is seldom the case that one side to a fight is wholly to blame for its start- The race may not always go to the swiftest, but it isn't good judgment to put your money up on a slow one. J AY HAWKER JOTS A punch in the mouth Isn't so bad. thinks the Neodesha Register, if you get it through a straw. Judged from the schoolboy's stand point, says the Gove County Record, this has been an unusually brief sum mer. Some people think that Hades exists only in the next world, says the At chison Champion, but it explains that they have not had the hay fever. Despite the growing popularity of the aeroplane, the Trego County Re porter believes that the railroads will continue to do business for a few years yet. It is the idea of the eNwton Kansan Republican that those who spent their extra money for vacations this sum mer will now begin to save for Christ mas. As the Dickinson County News un derstands it, the mad stone simply saved the man three or four hundred dollars, and anything like that has got to go. The man who gets mad at what the newspapers say about him should re turn thanks three times a day, says the Galena Republican, for what the news papers know about him and suppress. The Galena Republican thinks the grimmest satire on humanity of which any genius could conceive is. a dud hitched to a cigarette. And yet, reflects the Republican, that dud was once a boy. A gentle hint from the Phillipsburg Dispatch: "A certain editor, un known to fame, states in his country paper that he has been told that a man who squeezes a dollar never squeezes his wife. In looking over our sub scription books we are led to believe that some awful good women in Phil lipsburg are "not getting the attention they deserve." One of the Gove county farmers evi dently thinks that a poor but original excuse is better than none. Accord ing to the Gove County Record this farmer came to town recently with a bloodshot eye. He said that the facts in the case were that he put his head to the foot of the bed the night be fore, thinking it would be cooler, and that his wife kicked him in the lamp. Tom Thompson of the Howard Courant reports a personal experience that will not .et very well with the reformers who insist that it's the many habits men indulge in that keep them poor. Says Mr. Thompson: As I never smoked or chewed, and never played a game of pool or billiards, by the usual accepted theory I ought to have saved several thousand dollars in the past thirty-five years. But I haven't got the money to show for It. GLOBE SIGHTS. From the Atchison Globe. If a boy expects to work his way up in a week, he is too ambitious. The man who wears summer under wear all winter will soon begin saying 0. How would you like to be looked over as carefully as a new preacher is? It sometimes happens that the oth er fellow was right. Don't forget that. It seems also, that the football sea son usually gets a sufficiently early start. Every man who swears feels quali fied to do the swearing for the whole family. Don't let your credulity reach that point where a mule's meek look will fool you. A man's credit seldom gets so poor that it isn't easier to borrow than it is to pay back. Some people not only take their time about it: they take other people's time, also. A lazy person is disagreeable enough, but the person who claims to do it all is worse. It is also difficult to convince a country depot agent that he Isn't the railroad company. Don't blame too jnuch on Provi dence. Success or failure depends a great deal on yourself. When a farm do, begins to suck eggs, it has a worse reputation than a man who takes to drink. What did Bohemia ever do to get the blame of such a large per cent of the more or less unwashed? Just because he marries the "girl is no sign the man isn't guilty of a few hundred breaches of promise. It is hoped the women in heaven won't wear their crowns as high as they do their hats in this world. KANSAS COMMENT THE REAL COWBOY. The cowboy as pictured in fiction and on canvas is far different from the real cowbo? as he is seen with the 101 Ranch Real Wild AVest Show. The demand for western characters has caused manv- to affect the chappels and neck handkerchief in imitation of the real cowboy, but there are many things and characteristics about the cowboy of the ranch and plains that the would-be cowboy cannot imitate. He cannot imitate the loping gait of the genuine cow herder nor can he have the same pair of beautifully bowed legs. All cowboys are bowleg ged. This is a fact not known to everybody, but a fact nevertheless. When you see a man or bov in a suit of cowboy clothes and he is straight of carriage and you cannot see light be tween his knees you may well put him down at once for a counterfeit and you win not be wronging him at all. They are not born bow legged but in infancy they are in the saddle and the best part of their lives is spent with the horse under them. It is the constant straddling of the horse that put the curve in their legs and you will not find one cowboy on the great 101 Ranch at Bliss, Oklahoma, who is not Dent in the legs. If you see a eov.bov with his hand kerchief tied in the front you can also put him down for a base imitation of the real goods. It is not a matter of choice for the cowboy to wear his handkerchief around his neck. It is almost compulsory and it is equally compulsory to tie it behind and not under his chin. He wears it around his neck because it is easier to get at and ties it behind so that the larger portion is bagged in front and when in a storm or fast riding he has but to arop his chin in the bag like fold and his face is immediately protected. Ex perience has made him an expert and with two motions he can drop his face on his breast and when he elevates it the handkerchief has been picked up around the face and Shields it to the eyes. Any of the cowboys with the 101 itancn. Wild West Show while riding at break-neck speed can roll a cigarette with one hand and hold the bridle with the other. This is not considered any accomplishment but a necessity for if the cowboy could not do it there would be many times when he would not smoke. The real cowboy is a cow boy pure and simple while the coun terfeit is a cowboy only in dress. Cow boys do not graduate in the east. Arkansas City Times. ABOUT THE COUNTY FAIR. County fairs were instituted in the early days of Kansas to induce the farmers to stock their farms with a letter grade of horses, cattle and hogs. More scientific farm methods were also encouraged. These institutions thrived for a number of years. Lately they have been steadily on the decline. Too much money is given to the owners of fast horses to induce them to enter the races. This of course cuts down the allowances for premiums on the farm ers' stock and farm products. The prosperous farmer figures his time and expense to get his stock in shape to enter at the fair is not repaid. His land Is increasing in value and he must be constantly taking advantage of every means whereby he "can make his farm pay better dividends. Hence he keeps his fancy hopes, cattle, hogs and sheep at home: There is not a township in Brown county that can show more fine stock and better farms than Morrill. But the money that should be used to induce these men to place their products on display at the fair is given to the men with fast horses. The day of races is past in the farming districts. Unless a change is made in the management of the county fairs they will sooner or later be rele gated to the scrap pile. Morrill News. TAFT IN A NEW LIGHT. "Uncle Joe" Cannon chuckles in glee over President Taft's unsparing disclosure of the hollowness of insur gent pretensions to Republican alle giance. "La Follette and his whole crew are not worth one Taft," was the sweeping comment of the former speaker, upon reading the Hamilton speech signalizing the parting of the ways. Declaring that he has been quite won over from a certain aloof ness of feeling toward the president, "Uncle Joe" explained- that it was be cause of the enemies the president has made. The veteran is not to be counted among the timid souls who would have Mr. Taft bemean himself to the insur gents for fear they might get real mr.d and borrow Champ Clark's hammer and tongs. It was freely predicted that the president's denunciation of men who called themselves Republi cans would sever the last tie, at a heavy cost to his political fortunes. But what has actually resulted? Do not the signs toint to a rousing of the party conscience,' not among the regu lars alone, but among the lukewarm, who were half-persuaded that radical ism had a mission t- perform. Nor is it too much to say that the r icture the president drew has given pause to tha insurgent movement as a whole, lead ership and following. Assuredly, the run-amuck policy of La Follette and his lieutenants, if not brought to its knees, could have no other result than division and defeat. Washington Post. PATERSON STANDS PAT. The opportunity afforded by a new statute for easy change to the "com mission plan" from existing systems of municipal government throughout New Jersey is refused by Paterson, as i'. has been by a majority of the cities, so far, that have been required by tha enthusiasm of the friends of commis sion government to vote on the ques tion. The issue as presented to Pater son was conspicuously one of a change for the sake of a change. It seems that the present charter was adopted only six years ago and the administra tion has proved satisfactory. The mayor, who is serving his second term, was able to submit to the voters a record of material accomplishment which the commission advocates were bound to discredit if a genuine need for another form were to be shown. The large taxpayers appear to have been solidly against a change, although it is to this class that the commission plan usually makes its strongest ap peal. The vo'te was overwhelmingly against; but. had it not been, the poll for adoption being less than the per centage of the total canvass necessary to secure a change under the law, the proposition would have been defeated. It is rather futile to advance such a proposal so long as a municipal sys tem of any orhet variety is working well. The argument that one plan or another has peculiar sanctity does not seem to be particularly forcible. Providence Journal. If FROM OTHER PENS J SEPTEMBER.

As a carpen ter by trade, he was at work early and late. Two years later he fell off a scaf fold and hurt his back. He was petted and pitied and sympathized with, and, although after six weeks of loafing, the doctor pronounced Moses as good as new, the carpenter had lost his hustle. His wife dreaded that he might injure himself by going to work too soon and sho started dressmaking to support them while he loafed. Moses Smith's mother-in-law lived in another state. She heard how things were going, but it was a year before she came on. She found Moses growing fat and his wife growing lean. It didn't take the old lady over a week to size things up. In her time she had known of several lame-backed men and foolish wives. With the doctor to back her, she announced that her daughter must go away and rest for a month to prevent a nervous break down. She would remain to keep house for Moses. The lame-backed man didn't like it at all. It meant an overturning of his pleasant program. He doubted if there would be any more tea and toast and "poor-Moses!" for him. He was overruled, however, and the morn ing his wife started away he went down to the village postoffice and took his old seat on the veranda and hoped for the best. At noon he returned home to meet with a surprise. No fire no dinner. In reply to his look of bewilderment the lady with the iron jaw replied: You didn t cut any wood, ana so there's no dinner." But I can't raise the axe with this lame back." Then you won't have to raise knife or fork!" Moses went back to the grocery and filled up on a raw turnip. He went home to supper, but there was no sup per. No wood no supper. He went out and sat down under a lilac bush, and his eyes filled with tears. He was in the habit of going to bed at 9 and getting up at the same hour next morning. His going to bed on this oc casion was according to program, but he was aroused at 8 o'clock by a dash of water in his face. He had been called twice in vain. Moses, the axe and the woodpile!' said the mother-in-law as he came down stairs with a scowl on his brow. You know I'm a cripple," he an swered. "No wood no breakfast!" He went slowly out and bent to pick up the axe arid straighten up with a groan and his nand to nis DacK. It's a crik In the back," said the woman, "l m giaa to una it out. i ve tackled fourteen different crlks and cured each and every one. If I can cure you then Nelly will be very happy when she returns. Come along out to the smokehouse." 'But what's the smokehouse going to do for a man whose spinal cord is all knotted up?" 'Treatment, Moses treatment. Just step inside." He stepped, and the door was closed on him and locked. He found a cot, a jug of water and a loaf of bread. He kicked on the door and called out to know what it all meant, and was told to cuddle down and take treatment for the cure, of general laziness, drink, a crick in the back and lying abed in the morning. He was warned that any ex tra emotion on his part would make the crik worse, and told that there was no objection to his sleeping all day. Moses was foolish enough to kick and shout until a score of villagers came running to see what the matter was. To one and all the mother-in-law an swered "Moses has had a crik In the back for a year past, and I've set out to cure it. I hope to meet with great success. In fact, I don't think his wife will have to do dressmaking when she comes back. Thanks for calling. Come again." During the first day Moses thought and slept by turns, and now- and then shed tears. In a few hours his life had changed over and his peace and comfort had departed. At sundown more bread and water. He yelled and kicked and again he was warned to suppress his emotions. He demanded better fare, but was an swered that until his crik got so that he could use the axe there would be no cooking. On the second night he seri ously thought of suicide, and he smiled joyously as he conjured up a mental picture of the mother-in-law opening the door in the morning and finding him stark and stiff in death. But suc cessfully to commit suicide one must have something more than a jug of water and a loaf of bread at hand. Moses couldn't choke himself with either. Breakfast was the samo old bill of fare, and the woman still had her Iron jaw. There was no conversation. Moses nibbled and sipped and thought. An hour before noon he called out and when asked what he wanted he very humbly replied: "Mother, I believe that crik Is bet ter." "It's too soon, Moses it's too soon." "Maybe, if I was very careful, I could split a few sticks of wood to get dinner with." "I wouldn't have you try it for the world, my dear son-in-law. You have been in dreadful bad shape for a year. Any undue exertion might finish you. You shall have a raw tomato to he,lp out your dinner, as that goes with the treatment. If it wasn't half a mile to the nearest saloon I'd ask you to have a glass of beer with me." Moses didn't have such a lame back that he couldn't understand sarcasm. and he raised another row. Again the neighbors came, but when he appealed to them for help they looked at the mother-in-law. she asked them not to Interfere with her treatment. She had set out to cure his crik, and they could all notice that his voice was growing stronger. That smokehouse door was the first thing he had raised his foot to kick in a whole year. Bread and water again for supper, and another long night. Not a look of pity not a "poor Moses!" Truly, things had changed. At midnight Moses sat up on his cot to decide two questions. Was his crik really better? Was this his mother-in-law's fifteenth cure? Should he go to work? After an hour he decided both cases in the affirmative, and in the morning he was ready to say: "Mother, I've been doing some seri ous thinking since you were here last." "You have? I am sorry for that. I w-arned you not to strain your mind. You must be very, very quiet." "I I ought to have been at work for months past." "But the lame back, you know?" "I shouldn't have got to beer drink ing." "But you had to, poor man." "If you'll let me out now I'll have a job before night." "I couldn't, Moses I couldn't. It's altogether too sudden. If you went to work now it might be the last of you, and I don't want my daughter a widow. Let's do a good job and not hurry it." I It was on the morning of the tenth day, and after two ministers and a score of laymen had pleaded for Moses, mat tne Door was unlocked and an axe put into his hands. He walked straight to the woodpile and made the chips nj. When he had worked for two hours he put on his coat and started to look for a job, and when his wife came home he was at work on a new barn. There was astonishment at his cure, and surprise that he wouldn't tell how it had been brought about. All the ex planation he made was that he sud denly felt something give way. The mother was a little clearer as she said: "Nellie, all men want a mother-in-law around the house, but some want them more than others. If I were you I'd let it kind o' leak out around the village that you ain't going to do any mere dressmaking, and that Moses is going to give sitting up on the post office steps and put in ten hours' work for eight hours' pay." (Copyright, 1911, by Associated Literary Press.) Xerve Kails as Crook. Leon Gupiel didn't have the nerve to be a crook. He tried hard, he told In spector Hughes, and when they picked him up yesterday he had a revolver tucked away in his hip pocket, a mask made out of an old sock, and a "get away" cap, but Gupiel had never had the nerve to use them. Gupiel comes from a farm up In Deer ing. Me., and it wasn't so very many years ago that he used to work in the village grocery store and deal out good to housewives of Deering. But the cail of the city rang in his ears and he started for Boston with hope looming big and a mighty small amount of cash. He managed to work as a waiter in Boston for a time and saved up enough money to come to New York. He went to the Mills hotel in Bleecker street while he looked for a job. Two weeks he looked and his money was getting very low. Waiters did not seem to be wanted in New York, and anyway no body seemed to want Leon. So he decided that If no one wouIrT give him a chance to work honestly for a living he would make one some other way. He bought a .32 caliber revolver and in his room cut holes In an old sock so that it would fit over his eyes and fasten by a string behind. The cap was obtained in a second-hand store. Yesterday he gave it up. He would get rid of the revolver, and with the money he could get for It manage to drag out for a few days and then Leon never answered the question, for yesterday as he was going down West Broadway on the way to a pawnshop Detectives Trabuccl and Donohue noticed the bunch In his hip pocket and grabbed him. New York Sun. Mayor Rescues Kitten. Touched by the plight of a kitten which was mewing pitifully from its position high up in a tree in the grounds of the executive mansion, where it had been for two days. Mayor James F. Strange climbed up and rescued it this morning. The work of mercy was not unat tended with difficulty, for the kitten, perhaps terrified with visions of a dog which may have chased it to its refuge and nearly wild through hunger and exposure to the rain and cold during 48 hours, was at first afraid of Its rescuer and went out on a sma-i branch, where it was impossible to reach it. After vain efforts to tempt the cat to try the trip down the trunk of the tree from the point at which it was resting, 20 feet ahove the ground, a ladder was borrowed from the execu tive mansion, and Mayor Strange mounted to a crotch, from which he could reach to within a foot or two of the kitten. The feline hesitated to come within reach at first, but the mayor's persuasion finally coaxed it within reach, and he was able to seize it and carry it down the ladder to the ground. The kitten was at first too exhausted to make any effort to leave the vicin ity, but after being warmed and fed it forgot the terrors which had driven it to its leafy prison and kept it in dur ance during two stormy days, and be came as lively as If it had spent the period under a kitchen stove. An napolis dispatch to the Baltimore American. Priest Must Deny Polygamy. "Are you a polygamist was the question put to a Roman Catholic priest yesterday by Judge Lacombe in the United Slates circuit court when the Rev. Father Matias Cuevas, head of the Roman Catholic orphan asylum at Manuet, Rockland county, N. Y., sought full citizen's papers in the nat uralization branch of the court. The question, which appears surprising in the present instance, is one of the set interrogations which must be answer ed by all applicants for citizenship. New York Evening Sun. REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR. From the New York Press The littler the girl the bigger charge of dynamite she can be for some man. A man who is able to help support a lot of his relations always gets the chance. What we mostly object to about a great talker is that we aren't doing it ourselves. It discourages a woman to have her husband go shopping with her because he wants to buy something. A man can sit up all night in a poker game and never feel it, but being kept awake one hour by the baby will break down his health. Now that it is over, and the dust has settled, this department wishes to thank the several Kansas towns that loaned pretty girls. If they were a lair sample, suid towns should be proud of the decorations Topeka used on lis semi-centennial floats. Time may come when we think it necessary to take a poke at some of the Kansas towns we are busily thanking in this paragraph, but NEVAH r. time we have anything softer than a wallop on the Jaw for anyone who make', slighting remarks about the class of Kansas beauties ex hibited in that pageant. A lant at them was worth the trip to Topeka including hotel bills. There are times, in the life of every man, when he wonders how a broker ever made money by lending It. If Col. Astor experiences as much trouble after taking as he did before taking, he will regret the price he paid for the prescription. Several thousands of people will see Taft when he passes through Kansas and 99 per cent of them will see him for the first time curiosity: two thou sand children met Balie Wsggener at the depot, and every one of them had seen him several times before; that WASN'T curiosity. Let s rnuss up the old saw !ong enough to chirp: "I'd rath er be Balie Waggener than to be Pres ident." Rest seats at the Morris-FIynn dis turbance were $20 each.

And the only good that brain food does some peoplo is to appease their vanity. A man Is as young as he feels and a woman, too, but she doesn't always look it.

MAKES SHAMPOOING A REAL PLEASURE "The dread of washing one's hair is done away with, and shampooing greatly simplified, by the use of plain eanthrox." writes Mae Martyn, beauty specialist for the Boston World. "By using for your shampoo a tea spoonful of eanthrox, dissolved in a cup of hot water, you have a shampoo that cleanses perfectly, removing all dirt and dandruff, rinses easily, dries quickly and consumes only a few min utes for the entire process. This shampoo makes the hair soft. lustrous and fluffy. It does not bleach, deaden and cause the hair to split and become brittle, as soap shampoos do. I con sider this inexpensive shampoo the only perfect shampoo." j (TUflpWIm lUniiii laiillillllilliiiiiil 1 1 inllllllimr-yawiaifj ORTil SIDE NEWS Charter Member of Victor Coun cil Now President.

That it costs money to keep up the disturbance in southeast Kansas is about the only moral to be gleaned from a bill against the governor's con tingent fund which was presented to the state auditor today. Herman C. Ericcson, the special detective or one of them hired by Governor Stubbs to secure evidence of liquor violations in Crawford and Cherokee counties early in the season, was promoted to a re ceivership in that district as soon as the opportunity offered. The Regal Realty company of Weir City was charged with maintaining a nuisance. An ouster suit was brought against the company, and Ericcson wag appointed receiver pending the suit. He was appointed June 5. Today he filed a bill for $400 salary and $142.89 "expenses." This comes out of the governor's contingent fund. Moray loss of madison. Southwest Republican Editors Adopt Resolutions Before Adjourning. Hutchinson, Kan., Sept. 19. The Southwest Kansas Republican Edi torial association which adjourned on learning of the sudden death of Judge Madison adopted the following resolu tions: The Southwest Kansas Republican Editorial association recognizes the splendid qualities of this able man of western Kansas. It has been proud of his participation, his counsel and ad vice in its deliberations in the past. It has taken the greatest pride in his ca reer, both as district judge and in the congress of the United States. "When he became conspicuous in his con gressional service this association re joiced. When he rendered distinct achievements touching western Kan sas it was proud of him on his return home from months of his distinguish ed service it had been the hope of every member of this association to greet him and congratulate him. Resolved, That the Southwest Kan sas Republican Editorial association expresses, first its deep sorrow at the loss of the ablest member of the Kan sas congressional delegation; and be it further resolved, that the secretary is directed forthwith to send an appro priate message to Judge Madison's brother, L. A. Madison, at Dodge City; and, be it further resolved, that the secretary is directed to send by mail at his earliest convenience a copy of this memorial and resolution to Mrs. Madison; and, be it further resolved, that as a mark of sympathy and re spect, this association shall transact no further business at this session, other than performing the constitu tional duty of electing officers for the ensuing' year. HE'S LANDED AT LAST. Harry Miller, Who lied Officers Wild Goose Chase, Pleads Guilty. Harry Miller, pickpocket, will serve from one to two years in the Kansas penitentiary for his Topeka operation. Miller is a bit the smoothest article that the Shawnee county officials have laid hands on thi3 season and for sev eral months he caused no little un rest at the court house. When Miller was in jail last win ter a supposed parole officer from Illinois came to Topeka and talked the county officials in the notion of turn ing over their prisoner. Then a Santa Fe detective found that Miller was never returned to the Illinois authori ties and an effort was made to bring him hack to Kansas. But Miller was slippery and a Chicago policeman came to Topeka with the story that Miller was in the throes of death and suffering from tuberculosis. WThen, after several weeks more work, Miller was finally returned to Topeka, he was the healthiest 'boarder at Col. Norton's hotel. It is said that Miller is a lieutenant In the gang which operated all over the country. It was when a barbed wire fence stopped Miller one night after operating at the Santa Fe de pot that a policeman was able to catch him. Miller didn't know the fence was there when he started to run and his limited knowledge of local geography, cost him several months' confinement in the Shawnee county jail and will now give him an experi ence in the state prison, at Lansing. Following the plea of guilty by Miller, John Moore, charged with lar ceny from a depot, pleaded guilty in Judge Whltcomb's court to petit lar ceny and was fined $1 and costs. The case against James Dumford, who threatened his neighbors, was contin ued for the term and Dumford pro vided $200 bond to keep the peace un til his troubles are disposed of. W. M. Willems, charged with raising a $15 check to read $75, waa tried be fore a jury this morning and his fate will be known before night. HIT BY MULVAflE'S AUTO John D. Gallagher Believed to Be Se. riously Injured. John D. Gallagher, an elderly repre sentative of the Kansas Co-operative Refining company of Chanute, was seriously injured at 11 o'clock today when he waa struck by the heavy elec tric automobile of D. W. Mulvane in which Mr. Mulvane and two passen gers were riding. The old man refused assistance or transportation to his hotel and at tempted to walk. The accident hap pened at the corner of Tenth and Kansas avenues and he succeeded in walking as far as the T. V. Campbell drug store at 704 Kansas avenue. where he dropped his grip and stag gered into the store, falling against the soda counter. Seeing he wag injured or faint, Mr. Campell hurried to help him to a set tee in the rear of the store and called Dr. Chas. Hammond. The doctor ar rived in a few minutes, but found the old man almost pulseless and his pu pils contracted to the size of a pin point. It was thought for a time he would succumb, but a powerful stim ulant revived his circulation and lie was able to tell something of his ac cident. He said he had just dodged one au tomobile when the Mulvane machine, coming from the wes- and cutting the corner, struck him in the back. He wan knocked to the pavement, but no outward injury except a cut hand was sustained. He had seen the number of the car and said it was No. 8 5. Po lice Detective Anderson learned the owner of the car and called him on the telephone. Mr. Mulvane offered to do anything the injured man asked and probably will pay his doctor bill and reimburse him for his lost time. Gallagher apparently is a man who can not well afford to lose his time and pay. DECORATE FOR TAFT. Reunion Association Asks Topeka to Spruce Vp.

In one week's time there was quite an improvement in my condition, and after I had taken several bottles I felt as well as ever in my life.

The Sigma Delta Psi party at the Country club Monday afternoon was attended by about 35 of the active and alumnae members, and 20 guests, who are new students at Washburn this year. The following story of the visit of the Lawrence girls in Topeka last week, from the Daily Journal-World, is a pleasing compliment to those who entertained the out-of-town girls at the Semi-Centennial. The young wo men who came from Lawrence were Miss Mary Patton. Miss May oah, Miss Fern Emmons. Miss Bessie Law rence and Miss Linnie Sheets: 'Did the Lawrence girls who repre sented Lawrence at the Topeka State fair have a good time? Ask any of these girls and her reply will show you that never were girls more royally entertained. "From the time the girls arrived in Topeka until they took the train for home, there was never a moment when thev were not the guests at something planned for them. They were guests at the Xatlonal hotel, where they were given the best the hotel could afford, and no limit was put on anything that the girls wanted. "Thev were guests at the Country club for luncheon, they were taken automobile riding over the city, and thev were chaperoned properly during their visit there. They visitedj the stp.te capitol and they were out to the governor's mansion as special guests. At the inaugural ball, it is said and by other people than those from Law rence, that the home girls looked pret tier than those from the other towns. "The sensations of the girls when they rode In the parade must have been unique, but they all enjoyed it Immensely. The girls are now won dering if they will have a chance to go again next year. "Miss Linnie Sheets, one of the girls who went as a Lawrence pretty and popular girl, yells over her visit to Topeka. 'We surely did have a good time.' she said. 'They treated us per fectly. We couldn't have asked any thing better. From the time we ar rived until we left we were guests at things planned for us. They took us fiutomobile riding to see the city. There were 30 cars in all, the man said who took us. We were out to the capitol and to the Country club for luncheon. We enjoyed staying at the National. We had all kinds of fun at the ball. It was a pleasure all the way through.' A husky young fellow who started in his first year in high school today, announced to his parents last night that he intended to go in strong for foot ball and distinguish himself in athlet ics. His father counseled him to leave football alone and attend to his books. "You see, son." he explained, "you might get an arm broken or a toe out of joint or a nose mashed, and that would mean a big doctor bill and a lot of time wasted that I can t afford to have you lose, to say nothing of the pain it would give you. So I think you better keep out of football." Then the fond, loving mother rebuked the care ful father and revealed a new plan of economy and maternal affection thus: "Better let him get onto the football team. The chances are he will break his neck in the first play, and all ex pense of his education will be over as soon as the funeral and the tombstone are paid for."

Women who bear children and re main healthy are those who prepare their systems in advance of baby's coming-. Unless the mother aids nature in its pre-natal work the crisis finds her system unequal to the de mands made upon it, and she is often left with weakened health or chronic ailments. No remedy is so truly a help to nature as Mother's Friend, and no expectant mother should fail to use it. It relieves the pain and discomfort caused by the strain on the lig-aments, makes pliant and elas tic those fibres and muscles which nature is expanding1, prevents numb ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam mation of breast glands. The system, being- thus prepared by Mother '3 Friend dispels the fear that the crisis may not be safely met. Mother's Friend assures a speedy and complete recovery for the mother, and she i3 left a healthy woman to enjoy the rearing- of her child.

Merely dissolve a small package of mayatone in one-half pint of witch hazel, then freely apply this lotion to the face, neck and arms, and massage lightly until It disappears. Continued using will gradually ban ish wrinkles, sallowness and blotches and give to the skin a delightful clear ness and smoothness. The mayatone lotion is soothing to tender skins, and its use discourages the growth of hair or fuzz, and removes pimples, black heads and other facial blemishes. Such delightful Jesuits follow the use of the mayatone lotion that artificial aid3 to beauty are not required. EVENING CHAT BT RUTH CAMERON. Suppose an engineer had a certain great weight to lift. Suppose it took three hundred horsepower of pressure to lift that weight. And suppose that the engineer should supply fifty horsepower to it, and then shut off his engine and then try again and again with fifty or seventy-five or a hundred horsepower. Wouldn't we think he was an ex traordinary foolish man? He has wasted his power, we would say, and has accomplished nothing. He would have done better to use all his power at once or not try to do the thing at all. And yet how many people act just like that engineer? I am thinking of a woman who lives with a very trying elder sister. The older woman is one of those people who make life miserable for all about them by harboring a thousand whims and crotchets and cautions and irritating little prejudices and fussi nesses. All these things fret the younger sister to the verge of Insanity, and she lives in a continual state of protest fretful, nervous, inefficient protest. She argues, she pleads, she scolds, she nags. But never and here you catch my simile never hard enough to do any good. Her sister's obstinacy and self will is a weight that cannot be moved ex cept by some great pressure. And that the younger sister never exerts. As a result both their lives are em bittered and saddened by perpetual petty warfare without one bit of good being accomplished. Now this is the way It seems to me. That the only thing to be done in a case like this is for the sufferer to make up her mind that she, when she wants anything badly enough, will stand firm and get it, and that when she doesn't want anything enough to exert that pressure she will give up and give up pleasantly. In other words, when the weight must be lifted, she will exert the nec essary amount of power and lift It, and when it doesn't she won't waste her power. In regard to the law of obedience, Elbert Hubbard says: "Revolt is sometimes necessary, but the man who mixes revolt and obedi ence is doomed to disappoint himself, and everybody with whom he has dealings. To flavor work with protest is to fail utterly." It seems to me it's the same way with family life. There are conditions in family life when revolt is absolutely necessary. When you are sure these conditions exist, why revolt and do it thoroughly. But when you know that acauies- cence is wisest, why acquiesce and- do 11 cneerfully. But don't mix the two. At least, not if you care anything for peace in your home. wmwtmiim Mrs. W. C. Martin of Norris avenue left Sunday for Belva, Okla., to spend two months visiting relatives and friends.

Hugh Walker, an employee of the Topeka Plumbing company, was in jured seriously at 1:30 this afternoon when a westbound asylum car hit the wagon in which he was riding and threw him to the pavement. Follow ing the collision with the cor, the horse ran away and Walker in an at tempt to hold the animal was thrown against the curbing in front of the T-'-V laundry on West Sixth avenue between Jackson and Van Buren street. He was removed at once to Christ's hospital where his injuries are being treated. From information obtained from by standers who saw the accident, it seems that Walker was driving west on the car tracks in a wagon belong ing to the Topeka Plumbing company. A westbound car came down Sixth avenue between Kansas avenue and Jackson street. Walker heard the clang of the gong, apparently, as it is said he attempted to turn his horse from the track. Before the wagon cleared the rails the fender of the car struck it and threw it to one side. Walker falling from his seat to the pavement. At this point the horse became frightened and started to run away with the remnants of the wagon. Walker held to the lines in an attempt to stop the horse. He was dragged for several yards when he was hit by the wagon and thrown to the curb. He was picked up and carried into the V-V laundry where he was cared for until the ambulance arrived. Walker was knocked unconscious and remained in this condition until he was picked up. He regained his senses then but would say nothing concerning the accident. His injuries seem to be in the back and knees. From what he said to the first persons who rushed to his side, he was injured internally. Physicians do not know the extent of the injuries at a late hour this afternoon. Walker has been in the employ of the Topeka Plumbing company for the last seven months. He came to To peka from Kansas City with his fam ily. They live on Harrison street be low Twelfth street the number is not known. DEATHS AND FUNERALS. The funeral of Otto Miller, announced for this afternoon, was postponed and the date will be announced later. The body arrived from Kansas City but Mrs. Miller was unable to come on ac count of prostration from grief and the body will be held until she recovers sufficiently to attend the service. The body of J. C. Cooper, who died in Los Angeles, was cremated today in that city. The Masons were in charge of the funeral ceremony. The ashes will be brought to Topeka and buried by the side of his wife. TO BOOKS. Topeka City Schools Open for Tear Today.

High Schcol Students Must Keep Out of Fraternities. The city schools opened today under favorable conditions. The day dawned clear and crisp, and at an early hour the children were seen walking briskly towards their respective schools with their books under their arms and smil ing faces. As a usual thing the young sters do not look forward with any great degree of pleasure to the opening day. but when that event arrives it really seems rather nice to meet the other children again on the school grounds and talk over the football games and other good times that are to come and as a secondary matter studies. r A Cloud on tlie Face of the Son. The enrollment returns will not be in until the last of the week, but it is ex pected that the attendance will be large. No really serious work was done today, and in fact it will be a day or two until the children become adjusted to the new conditions, and get down to real hard work. Teachers are warned not to attempt to compel parents to purchase supple mental text books. Superintendent C. C. Starr gave the following instructions in respect to this question to the teach ers: "The form of the course in reading has been modified somewhat to con form to the peculiar wording of the text book lav. In that law the use of reference text books is recognized. As no text book has been provided by the school text book commission for literature for the elementary schools, it is believed that the use of addition al books as literature is permissible. "Principals and teachers are cau tioned not to attempt to compel par ents to purchase any of the additional or reference books for the grades in which the Powers Balliet readers are assigned. The same instruction applies to the reference book in lan guage. The books provided for read ing and literature in the 3-A grade should be regarded in the same way. "For grades three, four and five, ad ditional or reference books in reading, literature, and language have not yet been ordered by the dealers. The dis trict court recently decided that the board of education can not legally buy them and it is possible that parents would not be compelled to purchase them. "It is not advisable under the cir cumstances to ask parents who care to do so to purchase those books for their children until some funds are raised with which to purchase books for pupils whose parents do not care to purchase them. This arrangement is a temporary one, which I hope will soon be relieved. For it to be con tinued long would result in the work in reading and literature being very much impaired. For the present, in the 3-A grade some selections from the Ward third reader may be read until the situation is relieved." The hours for school sessions will be the same as heretofore: 9 to 12 and 2 to 4. Teachers are required by the rules of the board of education to report at their buildings punctually at 8:40 a. m. and 1:40 p. m.. so that they may be on duty from that time. Every effort will be made at the high school to keep fraternities out of the institution and each student is re quired to sign this statement: "I hereby certify that I am not a member or pledge of any organization known as. or of the nature of a frater nity or sorority whose membership is or has been composed in whole or in port of Topeka high school .pupils, and I promise that during my continuance in the Topeka high school I will not become a member or pledge or have any connection whatsoever with any such organization."

This followed reports of violence in connection with workingmen's strikes which have been called in various cities to further, the government says, a revolutionary plot. Ihe most seri ous situation is at Valencia, where a general strike was declared yesterday. The city was at once placed under martial law and though there was more or less rioting throughout the day the authorities had matters pretty well in hand until after dark, when the disturbers vented their fury in an attack on the officials in the adjacent township of Cullera. The rioters murdered a judge and wounded other officers of the court which had been engaged in the trial of those who had been arrested earlier in the day. The mob was finally dis persed by guards from the custom house. Strikes also have been de clared at Bilbao, Saragossa, Cadiz. Huelva, Seville, Gijon and other cities. In some of these places the movement has been but partially successful. Pre mier Canalejas announces that the government has in its possession the details of a revolutionary plot uncov ered at .Valencia and Barcelona. Part of this plot was to assassinate General Weyler, captain-general of Calonia. The government claims to know the names of all the conspirators and the sources of their supplies. The general union of labor today decided to call a general strike throughout Spain on a date to be fixed later. Troops Fire on Crowd. Bilbao, Sept. 19. Troops this after noon fired on a crowd that was en deavoring to free prisoners, including strike leaders who were being taken through the streets. Twenty-six per sons) were wounded. The situation is grave. Twelve Firemen Overcome. Chicago, Sept. 19. Twelve firemen were overcome by smoke while fight ing flames which attacked the twine warehouse of the McCormick branch of the International Harvester com pany's plant today.

Smith of Neosho county has gone to Stark to investigate the death of John Woodruff, a young farmer, whose dead body was found !ate Mon day dangling from the seat of the rig he was driving. Around Stark the impression is that Woodruff killed himself. One report says that he was riding in company with two men when the shooting took place, but another and the one most generally accepted is that the two men were driving in a rig just ahead of Woodruff, who was alone in his buggy. The men, it is said, were going to a nearby creek to hunt. Suddenly, six shots rang out in rapid succession, and the men in Ihe rig ahead halted the team to glance back and see the pros trate form of Woodruff lying across the scat. Kvery one of the six cham bers in a revolver were empty. Two bullets had taken effect in the body, one in the knee and another in the arm. Woodruff bled to death before his companions could take .him to a physician and relate their story. Woodruff was about 2.1 years old, and is survived by his wife and three small children. The shooting occurred on a country road, about two miles south of Savon burg, in Neosho county, not a great distance from Woodruff's nome. Gored by Pet Deer. Springfield. Mo.. Sept. 19.

Flu., who are alleged to have administered chloroform to Sadie Marchant when she was in the last stages of tuberculosis are denied by Elder Arthur Bruce of the Canterbury Shaker colony. In a statement today Elder Bruce said: "It seems to me that Brother Egbert Oillespie and Sister Elizabeth Sears, according to what knowleuge I have, acted to say the least, most unwisely. Nothing is desired by Shakers for them other than justice before the law. If on trial of the facts it shall appear that the chloroform was administered with intent in a manner to illegally ca.isc the death' of Sadie Marchant no Shaker would demur if punishment ac cording to law followed. Shakers as a whole will have nothing whatever to do with the legal aspects of the case and will not furnish lunds for any pos sible defense." THEY COME TO SEE TAFT.

GARAGE IS A FEATURE Car Fitted Out to Take Care of Needed Supplies. Other Items of Interest in Rail road Circles. On the occasion of a lengthy auto mobile tour in the state of Minnesota recently, the Oreat Northern ran a special "hotel train" which accom panied the vehicles throughout their journey, says the Railway and Engi neering Review. The tour was the third annual endurance run of the Minne apolis State Automobile association. covered a distance of more than 1.200 j miles. Stopping iplaces, or "controls were designated at intervals along the route, these being in every case located on the Great Northern railway; and by the arrangements made before the trip the passenger train accompanied the automobilists ana was stopped for their accommodation at each of the controls. The train included a baggage car with electric lighting equipment, and a gar age car. The latter contained auto rr.obile supplies and tires and, in fact, was a well equipped garage on wheels and carried a crew of automobile re pair men. The necessary supplies for the machines were to be obtained from merchants at the various controls, but nevertheless the supply of gasoline, tires, etc., in this car was found to be a very useful feature. There were also in the train nve standard sleeping cars, and one Great Northern com partment observation car and two business cars. Of the latter, one be longed to L. W. Hill, president Great Northern railway, and the other be longed to John Ringling, the circus magnate. Two dining cars of the Great Northern were also attached to the ho tel train, and notwithstanding that ho tel facilities were available in the towns designated as controls, the din ing car service was very popular. A physician, electricians and car inspec tors remained with the hotel train dur ing its trip. Ther were typewriters for the newspaper correspondents; a ictrola in a compartment observation car furnished musical recreation, and a tarber shop, a clothes pressing estab lishment for both men and women, and a photographic dark room were among the other unusual features of the train. A newspaper called the Daily Carbure tor was issued and contained general automobile news and the real features of the tour as well as the nonsense. Twice a day telegraphic news was re ceived from the general passenger office of the Great Northern, giving the mar ket reports, baseball scores and a di gest of the important news in general. The members of the automobile party it i& said, were very enthusiastic over the jnforts and conveniences of such a -in and it Is probable that service oi tdala kind will become a fixture for simi lar tours in the future. ST CREASE SLOW BUT SURE. Railroad Earnings Xot Very Satisfac tory in Last Montlis. '"iross earnings of all United States "jiTroads reporting to date for August, rfecording to Dun's Review, were prac tically the same as a year ago. the to tal amounting to $37,706,395, a de crease of only $2,289, as compared with the earnings of the same roads for the corresponding month last year. While the returns this month are not especially satisfactory, they make a more favorable comparison with a year ago than recent preceding months, in July the same roads re porting a loss of $102. 90S, or 0.3 per cent; in June, $549,424. or 1.5 per cent, and in May, $41,244, or 0.1 per cent. For the fourth week in August almost every system included in the statement reported more or less de crease but for the entire month the losses are not so general, a number of leading roads reporting gains which were about sufficient to offset the smaller returns in other directions.

Mount Pleasant, Iowa. He entered Santa Fe service on May 19, 1898, as a chainman, Fort Madison, Iowa, since which he has been, consecutively, April 1, 1899, to January 1. 1900, rodman; January 1, 1900, to November 1, 1900, clerk to the resident engineers at Fort Madison and Pueblo, Colo.: November 1. 1900, to June 1, 1901, transitman, Colorado division; June 1. 1901, to March 1, 1904, inspector of buildings: March 1, 1904, to January 1, 1906. division en gineer.

COXTROL OF MEXICAN LIXES. Xo Movement for Transfer from Hands of Government. Mexico City. Mexico, Sept. 19. Tho official statement just issued by the National Railways of Mexico showing the estimated earnings of its own and leased lines for the fourth week in Au gust. 1911. compared with the same week of the previous year, and also for the month of August indicates that business throughout the country has resumed its normal condition. Next to the government itself the National Railways of Mexico is the biggest in dustrial institution in the republic, and as a barometer of the commercial condition of the country its earn ings are considered very im portant. The revolution practically ended with the close of May, 1911. In June of this year the government rail way system showed a decrease of 12 per cent in gross earnings. In arriving at the significance of this comparison of earnings it should be considered that in July and August a year ago the revolution was not. felt in Mexico and the earnings for those two months were very good, yet they are exceeded by the same two months of this year after the country has gone through a revolution. CAR OF TWINE SAVES CROP. Utali Community Given Assistance by Local Railways. Salt Lake City. Sept. 19. The in terstate commerce commission, in granting an express company a special rate on a carload of binder twine from Chicago, has helped save the wheat crop on 50,000 acres of land near Idaho Falls. Early last week the farmers realized that their wheat was ripening so fast that, unless cut at once, it would be mostly lost. No binding twine could be had at local supply houses, and the matter was placed before the interstate commerce commission. The petition was granted, and a car of twine started west last Saturday, arriving at Idaho Falls on passenger time. Within 3 0 minutes the twine was being dis tributed and the gathering of the wheat began. MAXY DELEGATES G. J. G. T. A. Annual Convention in St. Paul Tuesday and Wednesday. Chicago, Sept. 19. More than 230 delegates will attend the fifty-sixth an nual convention of the American Asso ciation of General Passenger and Tick et Agents, to be held in St. Paul Tues day and Wednesday. A special train will leave Chicago for the convention city Monday evening over the St. Paul road and the return trip will be made via the Northwestern line. One of the most important subjects to be dis cussed is that of charging an extra amount to passengers who use the higher classes of equipment, including parlor, sleeping ana ODservation cars. It has been contended that these trav elers receive special accommodations and are furnished a fast service, for which the railroads have not been fully compensated. The Question was discussed at the as sociation's convention a year agd, but Saw and Skill y Quick Service on The combination that will save you good, hard coin in carpenter's bills and will keep your home from growing old.

Letters from Other States Indicate In dignation Over Tarring. When Mr. Coburn, secretary of the Kansas board of agriculture, wrote a letter to Attorney General John Daw son, offering $10 toward a fund to be used In prosecuting the Franklin coun ty roughnecks who assaulted and "tarred" a young woman, the attorney general handed out the letter to the newspaper men who hang around the state house, and thereby started some thing that is not easily stopped a flow of public sentiment. Since the pub lication of Mr. Coburn's letter, a num ber of persons outside the state and dozens within the state have taken chips In the game and offered cash to assist in the prosecution. It is evident that the newspaper men put more stress upon the Coburn letter to the attorney general than they did upon the attorney general's statement that the county attorney of Franklin county was conducting the prosecution in an able manner, and, apparently, did not need any assistance from hired attor neys or the attorney general s office. Here are a few of the outside letters received by Mr. Coburn since the pub lication of the letters he wrote to At torney General Dawson: Covington, Ky. In response to your kind offer to as sist the poor girl, Miss Chamberlain, to cause her cowardly assailants to De prosecuted and punished, I beg to en close herewith $10 for said purpose.

On both sides of the aCnadlan line arrivals were far short of the arrivals last week or on the corresponding day a year ago. An esti mate of only 126,000,000 bushels in the Da kotas and Minnesota, for milling and shipping, also had a bullish effect but a substantial increase in the European visi ble supply afforded the bears considerable comfort. The opening was the same as last night to aa up. December started at doc to 95c, unchanged to c advance, touched 95c and rallied to 9V4c.

Wall St., New York, Sept. 19. STOCKS A heavy tone prevailed at the opening of the stock market today following the lead of the London market, where prices of the International issues sold oft sharp ly. Selling was especially heavy in United States Steel and the Harriman stocks. Canadian Pacificlost 1, Union acific and United States Steel l'i and Southern Pa cific and American Smelting a point. In ternational Harvester sold at 100 and broke its low price of the year. The decline was of brief duration, enough short covering and new buying developing at the lower levels to send prices back to yesterday's closing or be yond. United States Steel did not rally proportionately with the rest of the list and met stock after it had reached 67. Foreign influences were largely responsi ble for unsettlement of the stock market today; the increase in the German bank rate of discount to 5 per cent although it had been forecast served to emphasize the disturbed conditions abroad and pre sented the possibility of an increase in the Bank of England's rate this week. The unfavorable effect on the Berlin market of the chanse in the German rate was accentuated by serious disturbances in Spain and Austria. The Copper stocks were singled out for pressure and Amaigamatea copper nnu American Smelting declined over a point. Other stocks displayed heaviness at in tervals but the indications of support manifested after the early weakness de pressed selling and recovered somewhat before midday. Western Union gained a point. Bonds were steady. Weakness of the Copper group and sev eral other specialties was ignored by rail road stocks, which held firm at the mid day prices. Business was in smaller vol ume than for many weeks past. New York Money Market. New York, Sept. 19.

Tomorrow. Geo. W. Lyon Named as Teller in Charge. RULES ARE GIVEN OUT. Regulations Announced byU. S. Postal Department. Interest of Two Per Cent Is Allowed. All plans have been completed for the formal opening of the new postal sav ings bank in Topeka tomorrow morn ing. The new government banking in stitution will be located in the old reg istry department in the north wing of the first floor of the federal building. Uncle Sam is not a member of the bankers' union and he will keep his banking house open early and late. George W. Lyon, who has been in the Topeka service a number of years, has been appointed teller for the new gov ernment bank. He will open the new depository for business each morning at 8 o'clock and deposits will be re ceived until 5 o'clock in the evening. These extra hours are established in order to permit the laboring classes to handle their business conveniently. For several weeks officials in tha federal building have been preparing for the opening of the new bank. A special inspector was sent here recent ly and Mr. Lyon was given thorough Instructions concerning the working of the new institution. For a time, at least, the plan of procedure in regard to saving deposit and checking ac counts must be explained in detail to the patrons. All detailed information concerning the operation of the government's new bank in Topeka, is printed in the State Journal and these instructions should be studied carefully by prospective patrons of the new bank. The new savings bank will be prepared to re ceive deposits promptly at 8 o'clock Wednesday morning and it is probable that many prospective customers will be in line anxious to make the first de posit in Topeka. A branch of the Topeka bank will be established in the North Topeka office and at a later date other branches may be located in various sections of To peka. These branch offices will report daily to Mr. Lyon in the federal build ing and he will compile the aggregate reports for the records in Washington. Below is published a detailed outline of the plan and operation of the new bank. Prospective customers of the savings bank should preserve a copy of these plans for future reference. Following is the list of instructions: Object. 1. The postal savings system is es tablished for the purpose of providing facilities for depositing savings at in terest with the security of the United States government for repayment. Surety. 2. The faith of the United States is solemnly pledged to the payment of deposits made in postal savings deposi tory offices with accrued interest as provided by the postal savings act. Who May Deposit. 3. Accounts may be opened and de posits made by any person of the age of 10 years or over in his or her own name and by a married woman in her own name and free from any interfer ence or control by her husband. No person can have more than one account at any one time. 4. No person may open a postal sav ings account at any postoffice who is not a patron of that office. 5. All accounts must be opened in person by the depositor or his author ized representative. After opening an account a depositor may forward sub sequent deposits to tha postoffice by mail. 6. Deposits will be accepted only from individuals, and no account will be opened in the name of any corpora tion, association, society, firm, or part nership, or in the names of two or more persons Jointly. 7. No account will be opened in the name of one person in trust for or on behalf of another person or persons. Service Free. 8. The service of the postal savings system is free, and no charge or fee is collected or required in connection with the opening of an account or the with drawal of money deposited. Privacy of.ceounts. 9. No person connected with the postoffice department or the postal ser vice is permitted to disclose the name of any depositor or give any informa tion concerning an account except to the depositor himself, unless directed to do so by the postmaster general. How to Open an Account. 10. When a person applies to open an account he must furnish the necessary information for the postmaster or his representative to fill out an applica tion, which he will then be required to sign. If the applicant signs by mark his signature must be witnessed by a disinterested person. DepOsUs. 11. Deposits are evidenced by postal savings certificates of $1. J2, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100, each bearing the name, of the depositor, the number of his ac count, the date of issue, the name of the depository office, and the date on w hich interest begins. The postmaster or his representative will make out a duplicate of each certificate issued, which the postmaster will retain in his records. 12. No account may be opened for less than $1. nor will fractions of a dol lar be accepted for deposit. 13. No person is permited to deposit more than $100 in any one calendar month nor to have a total balance to his credit at one time of more than $500 exclusive of accumulated interest. 14. Savings certificates cannot ba transferred or negotiated and will be payable only to tha person to whom is sued. 13. On opening an account a de positor is suprplied with an envelope in w hich he may keep his saving cer tificates. On this envelope is printed Information for his guidance, and also a blank ledger record on which to keep an account of his deposits and withdrawals. 15. In ease a savings certificate is lost or destroyed the depositor should rotify the postmaster. If deemed pro per, a new certificate will be issued j upon compliance by the depositor with the necessary requirements. 17. Postmasters are not permitted to receive savings certificates for safe keeping. j Savings Cards and Stamps. 18. Amounts less than $1 may be saved for deposit by the purchase of 10-cent poEtal savings cards and ad hesive 10 cent postal savings stamps. Each postal savings card contains blank spaces to which savings stamps may be affixed from time to time as purchased, and a postal savings card with nine 10 cent savings stamps thus affixed will be accepted as a deposit of $1 either in opening an account or In addition to an existing account. 19. Savings cards and stamps will be redennmed only by the issue, of sav ings certificates and are not valid for postage. They will not be received in exchange for nnstaee stamns nor will (postage stamps be accepted in ex- j ciiekHga iur pus Lai savings carua ur stamps. Interest. 20. Interest wilr be allowed on all deposits at the rate of 2 per cent per annum, computed on each' savings cer tificate separately, and payable an nually. No interest will be paid on money which remains on deposit for a fraction of a year only. 21. Deposits will bear interest from the first day of the month next follow ing that in which deposited. 22. Interest will continue to accrue on a saving certificate as long as it remains outstanding, certificates being valid until paid, without limitation as to time. 23. Compound interest is not allow ed on an outstanuing certificate, but a depositor may withdraw interest payable and include it in a new de posit, which will bear interest at tne regular rate. Withdrawals. 24. A depositor may at any time withdraw the whole or any part of his deposits to his credit with any interest payable by surrendering sav ings certificates properly indorsed, for the amount desired. 25. A depositor presenting a certifi cate for payment in full with all inter est payable must indorse it on the back in the presence of the postmaster or his representative and surrender it. The postmaster or his representative, if satisfied as to the depositor's identity, will then make payment. 26. When a depositor desires to withdraw only a part of the amount called for by any certificate the post master will cancel the certificate and issue a new certificate covering the amount to be lert on deposit. xne new certificate will be so dated that the depositor will not lose interest on the amount remaining continuously on deposit. 27. When a depositor desires to withdraw merely the interest payable on any certificate, instead of indors ing and surrendering the certificate as in case of full payment, he will be required to give his receipt in duplicate for the amount of the in terest paid.

Every woman hates to see her face wrinkled or baggy, and practically every one has experimented with some sort of patent remedy in the effort either to remove such condition or ward it off. As a matter of fact, the most effec tive remedy in the world is one tha any woman can easily make up herself at home, in a moment's time. Let her take one ounce of pure powdered saxo lite. which she can purchase at any drug store, and dissolve it in a half pint of witch hazel. Apply this re freshing solution to the face every day. The results are surprising and in stantaneous. Even after the very first application a marked improvement is apparent. The wrinkles are less in evi dence and the face has a comfortable, smug feeling of firmness that la most delightful. pal; Ethel Frizell (half time), Mary Monteith, Anna M. Hagar, Mabel F.

Then Woman Hides Children From Officers of Court. missioners Leach and Campbell, will be" voted on in the final election on September 25. Girls Not Bad Say Neighbors Who Know Case. Pittsburg, Kan., Sept. 19. The blind, unreasoning quality of a mother's love for her children has again been typified in the spiriting away of Rosa and Ada Hodges, both young girls, of this city, whose disappearance on the first day of September so mystified the authori ties. It was thought at first that the girls had met with foul play or had been abducted. It finally developed, how ever, that their mother had stolen the girls away, it is said, in order to avoid a warrant committing the two to the reform school. The two Hodges girls had ben a cause of worry to the juvenile court of this county, some time previous to their disappearance. The two had been committed to the reform school for misconduct and mistreatment of their mother. She had appealed to the au thorities for assistance, saying that she was unable to handle them. "The girls, both of them, have been unruly for a long time," Mrs. Hodges told the authorities, "and I cannot them. Thev stav out all night. or part of the night, and I have to hunt for them. Then wnen j. imu uien. raa Thor are not in good company and they refuse to quit their acquaintances." No sooner had the action or in i court taken place, it is said, than the girls frightened their mother by saying that if they were ever caught and sent to the reform school, they would never forgive her, and that they would kill themselves. The result was the moth er spirited her children away from the clutches of the law, feigning ignoranca of their whereabouts upon the discov erv of their disappearance by the of ficers of the juvenile court. The of ficers soon learned that the mother was the cause of their disappearance and that she was keeping them in hiding in some other state. Woman Disappears. Later Mrs. Hodges went to her two daughters, vowing that she would not return to a city like Pittsburg which "attempted to send her children to the reform school." The authorities are in a quandary, uncertain as to the best plan of procedure, for the mother of the girls was the cause of their arrest. Now she turns against the very law which she at first invoked. Although Mrs. Hodges herself com plained about the conduct of her two dauehters, others who are acquainted with Rosa and Ada assert that there was nothing wrong with either of tha girls, except that they w ere a little un ruly, and persisted in attending the "nickel shows" against the wishes of their mother. The two girls are 15 and 13 years of age. Mrs. Hodges is a widow, working out by the day to support her children. When the girls were old enough to work they were placed In positions, clothing being furnished by the city Humane society, in order that they might financially aid their mother. All that the authorities want to know now is. if the Hodges girls have not been stolen away, why should their mother have them arrested, only to assist them in evading the officer with the warrant?

"And the difference between a speech and a lecture," "The difference between a speech and a lecture is that you get paid for the lec ture." The speaker said something about wish ing there were more lectures and fewer speeches. FIGHT JOHNSON FIGHT. Archbishop of Canterbury Asks That It Be Stopped. London, Sept. 19.

With the other mem bers of the Walter Armin stock com pany here at the time he was rehears ing on the stage when the explosion came which set fire to the house. The explosion was caused by a plumber looking for a gas leak with a torch- Mr. Eldridge says that Ilr. Armin is now In Budapest, Austria, ana nas fallen heir to a fortune left him by his father, a late member of the board of trade. Mrs. Eldridge is the daughter of Milton G. Barlowe, a min strel man. Their sketch is clever.' An actress stops at a wayside station on her way to St. Louis. She is to Join a theat rical company. The postmaster, who is also store and hotel keeper and sheriff, overhears her practicing a part in which she tells how she has mur dered her husband. As he has just read in a paper of such a crime he thinks she is confessing and handcuffs her. She persuades him to unhand cuff her. Then, as he refuses to let her go she succeeds in putting the iron on him and makes her escape on a train which crosses the stage. Flavio Brothers, gymnasts, do some exceptionally good stunts.

"Arizona," by Augustus Thomas, au thor of numerous plays, was played for the first time in stock by North Bros, at the Majestic theater last night to a capacity house; Miss LeRoy, leading lady while Miss Goodwin is absent, played "Estrella." It is a difficult part, but Miss LeRoy made good. Mr. Dem- i ing, who played the lead as "Col. Bon ham," delivered the goods. Mr. Jack son made a hit as "Tony Mostano," the Mexican. This part requires a good in terpretation of a Mexican of the better class, but Mr. Jackson put it over without overdoing. Mr. Sayles scored as "Lieutenant Denton" and Miss Mc Kinley as "Bonita" seems to be a favorite with the audience. "Miss How ard" gave an artistic rendering of the rather sad role of "Lena." Mr. North as "Henry Canby" was perfectly at home. The special scenery showing the Arizona desert, sage brush and cactus in the foreground and mountains in the distance, was remarkably realistic. The colors of the sky were true to the won derful shades of that country. Miss Goodwin, who has been called to the bedside of her mother, will return next week. (Beauty Culture) Since the discovery and use of powdered delatone for removing fuzz or hair from the skin's surface, no woman need go through life with an otherwise beautiful neck or face marred by unsightly growths. y druggist can supply delatone, and while an original ounce package costs a dollar, it is a good investment, because one application usually suffices. A little of the powder should be mixed with water to form a paste, then spread on the hairs not wanted and left two or three minutes, then rubbed off and the1 skin washed. No pain is felt with this delatone treatment, and the skin is left white, firm and hair less, with slight chances of its ever re turning again. -LOCAL JlESTlOxN.
