Finer weather than that which favored the two great teams of the American and National leagues for the second hattle for the championship of the j world this afternoon could not be de- sired. The sun was shining bright'y I as the teams took the field and the air was warm enough for spectators to discard their overcoats. The wind, which came out of the northwest, was only a gentle breeze and not strong enough to bother the fielders. Like at all world championship games, the crowd was on hand early and when the umpire-in-t hief called "play ball" there was not a vacant space for a spectator in the vast grandstand or in the out field. The bleachers gates were opened at 9 a. m. and before the sun had readied the meridian the big concrete b!eacher3 were jammed with ''rooters." The crowd overflowed into the field shortly after 12 o'clock and the spectators soon stood dozens deep behind the fences erected in right and left field: there was an open space in centerfield of about WO feet in which no spectators were allowed. The big steel grandstand was slower to fill than the bleachers. All seats in this part of Shibe park were reserved and there was no hurry or scramble for places. Among the great crowds in the stands were thousands of women. There were still other stands filled with a couple thousand people from which the clubs received no income. Grandstands on Housetops. It was on the houses outside the grounds on the left and right sides. Seats were buiit in tiers and the house holders received good prices from their occupants. The first big cheer of tb.3 game came when the Athletics came from under the grandstand at 1:50 p. m. and immediately began practicing. That the home team expected Mar quard to do the pitching for New York was seen when Danforth. a left handed pitcher went into the box and served his puzzling curves to the Ath letics. The Giants took the field for regular practice at 1:40. Athletics Still Confident, The champions of the National league having gotten the "jump" on the premier team of the American league in the opening game in New York on Saturday the Philadelphia men will take desperate chances to even up the series. The players came out of Saturday's fray in excellent condition. The de feat did not in the least shake their confidence in their ability to finally land the greatest honors in baseball. They admit a one-game lead in a short series is a great advantage, but hope that today's result will give them an even chance in the remainder of the ga mes. The terrific strain under which ball teams work on the opening day of an important series is now over Beth teams played a cautious game on Sat urday, apparently feeling each other out. The players will go into today's contest with increased confidence and more chances will be taken on the bases and in the way of working inside trick plays. Each team has played its trump card in trotting out its best pitcher and the second choice men will today be the hading figures in the gamp.

AV. I.elunann of St. Louis Most Favorably Mentioned. Washington. Oct. 16. Frederick W. Lehmann of St. Louis, solicitor general of the United States, leads the list of probabilities for the succession to the supreme bench in the place vacated by the death of Justice John Marshall Har lan. Mr. Lehmann was one of the most seriously considered men in connection with the formation of the Taft cabinet. He was regarded by Mr. Taft as one of the best equipped men in the coun try for the post of attorney genera!. Later at the earliest opportunity to give him a place of proper dignity and dis tinction, he was summoned to the sec ondary cabinet as solicitor general. In that capacity Mr. Lehmann handled, alone and unaided, the great co-pora-tion tax case and won it in the su preme court. A lifelong Democrat, Mr. Lehmann is the kind of Democrat that common ly gets consideration at the hands of Republican presidents. Ke bolted Bryan in 1886. supported Palmer and Buek ner, and has not been en rapport with his party since that time. The Bryan program was too radical for him and the Parker affiliation too conservative. Mr. Lehmann is a citizen of Mis souri and a native of Prussia, which would make his appointment good poli tics. He is one of the greatest lawyers in the country. He has been president of the American Bar association and head of the St. Louis public library board, which built the splendid new li brary in that city without a suggestion of graft creeping into it. With the death of Justice Harlan there are only two Democrats on the court, so it is generally believed the new justice will be of that faith. Many names are mentioned in con nection with the place, including Attor ney General Wickersham. Justice Hor ace E. Deemer of Iowa, Henry A. Wise, federal attorney for the southern dis trict of New York, Senator George Sutherland of Utah. Senator W. S. Kenyon of Iowa and Justice Cullen of the appellate court of New York.

Rodgers resumed his cross-country flight at 7:40 this morning after rest ing here over Sunday with 1.673 miles of his journey from New York to Ivs credit. He followed the tracks of the Missouri, Kansas Texas railway, expecting to reach Ft. Worth, Texa-s, 313 miles away, before dark. He plann ed to make his first stop at McAllester, Ok., 127 miles south. Muskogee, Okla., Oct. 16. Aviator Rodgers, on his. sea-to-sea flight, reached Muskogee at 9:07 this morning. His motor was missing badly and he was obliged to alight. He expects to resume his flight -within thirty min utes. He made the distance of 65 miles from Vinita in one hour and fif teen minutes. McAlester, Oct. 16. Aviator Rodgers landed in a field one mile from Mc Alester at 12:55 p. m. 3AY GET ELKS. Rumor That Commercial Club Will Leave Rooms. President Kelley Says They Are After New Home. The Topeka Commercial club will have a new home in the near future that is if present plans work out. Neogtiations are on for the Elks' club house. "I think in six months,' said President J. Will Kelley, in speaking before a number of officials of the Kar nival Knights' organization, "that wj will have a home that will be attractive for young men." "There is- great need for a new home," said Mr. Kelley later while speaking with a reporter. "The advantage the club would have in having a home of its own would be the stability it would give the organization and the comfort the members would enjoy. "Such a building would be the com mercial center of the city in perhaps a stricter sense than it is at the pres ent time. Around the organization the business interests would center. "No definite plan has been decided upon, but we have been discussing rais ing the money necessary to build or buy a home." WOfl BY ONE PLAY Snodgrass' Good Start to Second Gets Sew York Victory. New York, Oct, 16. Before leaving for Philadelphia .today Manager Mc Graw of the Giants told of the play which he regarded as the climax of the first game of the world's series. He said: "The turning point of the game was overlooked by nine-tenths of the fans. It came in the fourth in ning. Snodgrass was on first base with nobody out and Murray at bat. Bender quickly got Murray in a hole by pitching over two strikes. "I was greatly in fear of a double play, so standing at first base, I signalled for the hit and run. As soon as Bender drew his arm back Snod grass bolted for second. Murray swung hard at the ball and it went fast to Collins, but too late to get Snod grass at second, although Murray was retired at first. "Now had Snodgrass not got the good start to second, there would have been a certain double play, or at least Snodgrass would have been retired. Then there would have been no op portunity for Snodgrass to score on Collins' fumble. I consider that this play won the game for the Giants." TAFT IS SERVED PUNCH. Flagship California's Crew Try AYest ern Made Champagne. San Francisco, Oct. 16. The enlisted men on the flagship California drank champagne to the health of President Taft last night. Several cases of Cali fornia champagne had been sent aboard the flagship for the reception for the president. But Rear Admiral Thomas elected to serve punch and he ordered that the champagne be served at the crew's mess. Although other naval formalities were duly observed, when the president came, it was noted that the regulation salute of twenty-one guns was not fired. This, an almost unprecedented breach of naval courtesy, caused con siderable speculation until it was learned that the salute had been omitted at the special request of the president, who requested that no avoid able noise made on Sunday. CHINA ISEXCITED. Begins a Vigorous Campaign Against Rebels. Run en Ranks at Pekin Accom panied by Riots. CAPTURE SHIP One of Vessels at Hankow Is Taken. Price of Rice Has Risen 20 Per Cent. Peking, Oct. 16. Members of the national assembly which was organ ized a year ago as the nucleus of a Chinese parliament and which is to begin its second session here on Octo ber 2 2, have taken a hand in the revo lutionary situation. About half of the two hundred members of the assembly are now in Peking. Sixty of them gathered privately yesterday and dis cussed the situation. They drew up a series of resolutions addressed to the throne. These were made public to day. The resolutions demand that in the interests of peace, the provincial as sembly of Cze-Chuen be permitted to assemble immediately and that the president and vice president of that body be released from prison to take part in the sessions. The resolutions further call for a dismissal of Sheng Hsuan-Huai, the imperial minister of posts and communications, as soon as possible. Sheng negotiated the loans for the nationalization of the railways and has been a leading advocate of the anti-provincial policy which is re garded as largely responsible for the present uprising. The president of the national asseibly will lend his official prestige to the resolutions and will transmit them in person to the cabinet. Huns on Banks. Heavy runs on the banks here con tinued today and there were riotous scenes in front of several of the insti tutions, the policemen on duty being forced repeatedly to club back the crowds and protect the bank officials. Government bank notes are not longer passing at par, the best being at a dis count of 20 per cent. Even the foreign banks are not im mune from the financial war scare. The Russo-Chinese bank in the lega tion quarter was the target for a pro long run today. The foreign bank notes are being refused as currency outside of the legation quarter. The Chih Tu Pu, the imperial board of finance, came to the relief of the gov ernment deposit bank today with $125,000 gold and offered $500,000 more for the relief of the native banks. Official sources all declared today that they were receiving no news from the rebel zone owing to the severance of the telegraph wires out of Hu-Peh and Cze-Chuen provinces. Campaign Against Rebels. A published report today says the rebels at Hankow have captured one of the ships anchored off that city. De layed advices from south are that the imperial troops which retreated from Wu-Chang and Hankow are mobilizing at Chuma Tien 100 miles north of Han kow on the railroad. Three members of the American legation here have been given permission to accompany the im perial army in its campaign against the rebels and they left today wita General Yin Tchang. They are the only foreign attaches with the army. They are Lieutenant Colonel William D. Beach of Fort Sandigo. Manila, Captain James H. Reeves, the military attache of the legation and Will Ys Peck, as sistant Chinese secretary, who will act as interpreter for the party. The gov ernment has decided to permit the for eign diplomats to exchange dispatches with their representative in the pro vinces where a rigid censorship had been decreed. A considerable stir has been caused here by persistent reports that Japa nese officials knew of the plans t re volt in the central provinces long in advance and even encouraged and par ticipated In the movement. Minister Ijuin gave official denial to these ru mors today. He declared they were contradicted by circumstantial evidence and sail that investigation showed that all persons connected with Japanese legation had acted with entire propri ety. The foreign banks have been indi rectly sounded regarding the possibili ty of arranging a government loan of $2,00,000. The price of rice has risen 20 per cent since the revolt began. It is believed that passenger traffic on the railway between Pekin and Tien Tsin will be interrupted tomorrow. LOOK FOR FROST. Weather Man Says There May Be Ono Tonight. Look out for frost tonight!

The conference which has th avowed intention of nominating a pro gressive candidate for president, arose to cheers that lasted nearly ten min utes when the name of Cnlted States Senator Robert M. LaFollette wnjt mentioned by the speaker us being a man who by his achievements repre sented the principles ar.d platform of the progressives. The opening speech by George L. Record, of Jersey City, referred to the conference as gathered in the Identical spirit that brought to gether the first body of men who met under the name of the Republican party. "There are many things which make this gathering similar to the gathering which formed the Republican party," he said. "Particularly to the time when the first convention of the Na tional Republican party was held. The thing that brought us together is the same that brought the founder of the Republican r.artv together. We hnvn met here as Republicans to frmulstt me issues we s'e looming up in the future and to select.

It is our task to find out w here In the social and political and governmental system of this country there lurks the nower of one man or a set of men to appropriate witnout return the earn ings of the mass of men.

Here Haskell kicked and al though the locals fought hard, they were unable to score. At the begin ning of the third quarter Haskell kick ed to Campbell and held her in her own territory during that quarter.

Here they again were un able to gain and Campbell took the tau. Just forty-five seconds before the whistle blew the Indians made a fair catch on the forty yard line and Arti choker kicked a pretty goal from place ment.

Piles Up Heavy Score at St. Marys Catholic Game. Lawrence, Kan., Oct. 16. Kansas showing unexpected strength in every department cf the game, defeated St. Marys by the score of 47 to 0 on Mc Cook field. The scores were made by seven touchdowns and two drop kicks. All of the playing throughout the game was in the Catholic's territory, and Kansas lost the ball on downs only three times. The K. U. team slightly outweighed the St. Marys men. Kansas started scoring in the first quarter when, after twelve minutes of play, Delaney made a drop kick from the 20-yard line. Brownlee made the first touchdown after catching a per fect forward pass from Heil, when K. U. was on St. Mary's 30-yard line in the middle of the second quarter. Ahrens kicked goal. After a series of brilliant end runs by Tod Woodbury and Coolidge and a successful fake kick, in which Steuw carried the ball to the 5-yard line, Davis went over for the second touchdown. Kansas quick ly rushed the ball to the 15-yard line and Tod Woodbury skirted the right end for a touchdown. Heil was re placed by Wilson, and the first half ended with the ball in possession of Kansas on the middle of the field. The score was 21 to 0. Wilson fumbled the ball on the kick off in the second half, and McCue missed a drop kick from the 20-yard line. Ahrens broke through the St. Mary's line and blocked two of St. Mary's punts In this quarter. Amnions was given the ball and ran twenty-five yards to a touchdown. Buzz Woodbury and Kabkr made long gains and at the end of the quarter Kansas had the ball on St. Mary's 17-yard line. In the last quarter the Kansas team smothered the Catholics. Wilson made a touchdown and Delaney drop kicked from the 25-yard line. Hoffman ran twenty-five yards through St. Mary's team for another touchdown and the last score was made when Kansas blocked a punt and Hook fell on the ball behind the goal line. Coach Sherwin said after the game that Kansas showed great improve ment over its playing in the Baker game and that the score indicates that St. Marys did not play a strong game. Before the game was over practically the entire Jayhawker squad had been in the game. COUXHUSKERS SWAMP AGGIES Nebraska Pushes Pigskin Across Goal Line Ten Times. Lincoln, Oct. 16. Jumbo Stiehm's Cornhuskers romped away with an other gridiron victory and buried the Kansas Aggies from Manhattan under an avalanche of touchdowns and goals. Ten times the Cornhuskers battered their way across the Aggie goal line. which feat, with nine goal kicks added. netted the Nebraskans a total of 59 points. The Aggies, meantime, were scoreless to the finish of the sixty min utes of play. Right Halfback Racely, a substitute, pitted against the farmers during the second half, furnished the sensation of the contest. Speeding around the wings, he outraced and dodged the Kansas ends and backs end charged down the field, placing four touch downs to his credit. Racely proved that he is the speediest back field player developed at Nebraska since the days of the spectacular Bender. Other features were long sprints by Russell and Owen Frank, who broke away from the Kansas tacklers and romped virtually the full length of the grid iron and across the farmers' goal. The Aggies Fought Gamely. The Aggies resisted valiantly in the opening half, holding the Cornhuskers to two touchdowns and twelve points. A third touchdown by Quarterback Warner was ruled out by the officials and a penalty of fifteen yards inflict ed. Twice the Aggies captured the ball on downs when the Cornhuskers were within five yards of a touchdown, and the game promised to be bitterly con tested to the finish. The Nebraskans, however, had the advantage in speed and weight and, when the second half found the Kansans exhausted from their previous efforts. Stiehm shoved in a substitute backfield and the farm ers gave way under the battering of the Cornhusker reserves. Eight touch downs were reeled off by the pupils of Stiehm during the final half. The Aggies offense was of negligible service against the Cornhuskers' heavy forwards. Captain Holmes and Loomis were the only Kansans able to lug the ball substantially. The Aggies made their distance only three times on downs, twice on line charges and once on a forward pass. Nebraska's goal line, however, was not menaced, the Aggies getting no nearer to a touch down than the 35-yard line, the result. HIS HEAL of recovering the ball after a fumble by a Nebraska back. Based on their showing Saturday, the Cornhuskers should give the Minnesota Gophers a stiff battle this week on Northrup field. FRESHMEN TIE HOLTON HIGH. Chances to Score Lost on Repeated Use ol Forward Pass. The Washburn Freshmen team played a no score tie game with the Holton high school team on Washburn field Saturday. While the college men were able to walk through the highs on straight football, Quarterback Fent repeatedly called forward passes and continued to lose the ball. The Fresh men were in Holton's territory most of the game but lost their many chances to score through thick head ed generalship. It was an aimless sort of contest and the leather was usually flying about subject to anybody's possession. Brown and Logan for the visiting highs played a good game on defense but their team's offense was a minus quantity. Trobert of the Freshman, who showed the making of a crack goal kicker at Wentworth a week pre viously, failed to show form and miss ed two tries at goal. The line-up was as follows: W. Freshmen Position Holton H. S. Haines C Fickle Whltcomb, Olean- er, Askew ...R. G.. Summer, Arnel Hathaway L. G McCreary Leedom, Olean der, Ream ...R. T Davis, Lutz Chamberlain ....L.

George Heil, Topeka's quarterback, was mainly responsible for his team s victory. He directed his men like a Napoleon and was in every play him- self. He returned all of St. Joseph's punts from ten to twenty-five yards. it was Heii who drop-kicked goal from the twenty-yard line in the last quarter, when the score stood 6 and 6. The three points which his kick added to Topeka's score beat St. Jo seph. Topeka used the forward pass ef fectively, while St. Joseph relied al- most aitogetner on enu runs. i i 1 1 made perfect forward passes to his men and only on one occasion did the St. Joseph players break up the play. Barney Reilly acted as referee and his work was good. Topeka scored Its touchdown during the first five minutes of play. Reds Defeat Arkansas City. Winfield, Kan.. Oct. 16.

Only one young man in the country is given the scholarship and at every election scores of young ambitioi'S fellows are presented for ap pointment. An Honor for Tulien. The election of Ture Tulien of Topeka is considered an honor among tho rail way men over the country. Members of the Master Mechanics' associt'on i from other railroads in the United States had recommended young men from their offices and shops. test was keen and the news of Tulien's appo'ntrnont was received with enthusi asm In the local mechanical offices of the Santa Fe.

After been strong competition between the his graduation from the high school, j Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe, the Tulien did not roll up his trousers and Rock Island, the Burlington and the THE XUMBER IS 876,000 This Is Actual Count of Persons Going Through Train. Advertising Feature Slay Be Sent to Coast Lines. No Uimobi Two times it was necessary to wash the entire Santa Fe demonstration train on its five weeks' trip through Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado and New Mexico. The cars were wash ed with hose and brush that the chalk marks, pencil marks and carvings might be erased. These marks were the initials of the thousands of visitors to the train while it was touring its way through the west. J. F. Jarrell, publicity agent of the Santa Fe, tells many interesting ex periences of the train's trip. Mr. Jar rell returned to Topeka today to re cuperate and prepare for a tour of the south the remainder of October. The train is at Newton and will be taken to Dallas to be placed on exhibition at the Texas state fair. Later it will be shown at San Antonio and Houston to the fair crowds in those cities. The demonstration train, showing railroad progress in the last thirty years, has made a tremendous hit in its five weeks' tour. By actual count of the persons who have walked through the train, 876,000 people have witnessed the demonstration. This does not include the persons who have stood on the station platforms and have not entered the cars. Denver claims the honors of furnish ing the largest crowd. It was estimated by Denver newspapers and by th2 count on the train that 50,000 persons saw the exhibition in that city. The smallest crowd was at Abo, N. M.

The State Journal la a member ot the Associated Press and receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or ganization for the exclusive afternoon publication In Topeka. The new la received in The State Jour nal building over wire for this aole pur- The Terrible Turk appears to have become the Terrified Turk. Taxation without representation has received another blow on the Pacific coast. Uncle Ike Stephenson appears to have been entirely willing to put up his own Jackpot. If Woodrow Wilson does not like the hymns in common use why doesn't he write some belter ones? If President Taft gets all the delega tions promised him on his present trip his nomination Is assured. The slogan of the Golden State suf fragists was: "The "women of Cali fornia ask for Justice." And they got it. The French have succeeded in mak ing whisky of bananas, which shows that nothing in the world Is without some use. Out of a population of" 319,198, it looks as though Los Angeles should be able to find twelve men competent to try the McNamaras. Now that the recall has been adopt ed by California, servants of the Southern Pacific who are holding office must change masters or quit. It often happens thatT a legislature passes a fool "aw and a general pro test arises as w.on as some official undertakes to enforce it to the letter. Mary Garden advises American girls abroad "not to smoke, drink or go out to late suppers." Is Mary's advice the result of experience or of observation? In view of the rapid progress in avi ation, probably it will not be long be fore cities will find it necessary to maintain a flying squad of policemen. President Taft says the Panama canal will be completed in 1913. To peka people would like to hear him make a prediction on the Fillmore etreet bridge. The Stephenson investigation shows that it takes a lot of money to induce the people of a state to elect a man whom they don't want to the United States senate. Champ Clark appears to be neglect ing a necessary adjunct to his candi dacy for the presidency. He is not writing anything for the magazines or starting a weekly newspaper. President Taft within the past few days has had the unusual opportunity of addressing large numbers of women who are entitled to vote in presiden tial elections. A year from now we may be able to see the effect of that mile. Co-eds must not root at football g-arnes of the University of Minnesota, says the dean of women there. She de clares the noise they make when they try to cheer or yell resembles nothing bo much as the moaning of one in the throes of nightmare. A young woman candidate for mem bership on the Cincinnati board of education has issued a card bearing the following: "Nine-tenths of our teachers are women. One-half of our parents are women. One-half of our children will be women." According to a report by Auditor General Sisson, Pennsylvania is the wealthiest state in the Union in per sonal taxable property. His statistics show an aggregate of $1,189,831,300. Does this prove that the Keystone State is prospering or that it is harder to dodge the assessor there than else where. Morgantown. W. Va- nas raised a guarantee fund of $250,000 to stimulate industrial developments. The money was raised in seven days, and it Is now proposed to Increase it to $400,000 m order to be sure of the necessary sinews for corraling any industry that may turn up looking for a site to lo cate on. "Because of the number of men who mix cordiality with a desire to show their strength of grip," says the Brook lyn Eagle, "the elder Rockefeller has adopted a new handshake which makes a hard squeeze impossible. A proper comment on this is that the man who puts another to torture in a handshake deserves to be well kicked, on the spot." What spot? THE BEX D-WIS. This is also the season of the year when the editorial elite of Kansas take their flings at the Ben Davis apple. One or two of them go so far as to class it with the .pawpaw. And most of its critics say that it i3 far and away the worst specimen of that ie lectable fruit which was given distinc tion for all time by Mother Eve. It will hafe to be confessed by every one who has had any experience with apples that the Ben Davis is something of a delusion and a snare. Certainly there are few of the genus apple which are better to look at. Indeed, the Ben Davis is the apple that is usually chosen as a model by the artists who paint things horticultural. Where is there an apple more perfect in form? Where is there an apple with richer coloring? Its blush of red is as deep and also as varied as is a virgin s. But a bite into one is apt to dispel the delusion. It robs the Ben Davis of much of its beauty and charm. As an "eating" apple it is well nigh worth Apples, however, and the Ben Davis included, were evidently not created merely for the purpose of being eaten In their natural state. They are es pecially succulent when made into sauce with the aid of a little water, fire and sugar. Turned into an old fashioned dumpling, they appeal as a premier dessert to the most fastidious of epicureans. They shine best of all in a pie. Once in a while a prejudiced enthu siast will insist that rhubarb pie is the only thing in the pie line. Nor is the pumpkin pie without its equally ardent devotees. Neither is it impos- cihie to find a strange human here and there who will actually rave over the rtoiinlmianess of a pie of the raism va riety. or one concocted even with prunes. The custard pie has followers innumerable. So has the pie mat k filled with home made mince meat. Ir fact, every possible pie has Ha admir ers. For. that matter you can find s man who will relish a mutton pie. When vou eet down to brass tacks though, the alpha and omega in the pie line answers to the name or appie with seasoning of lemon, cinnamon oi n.,tm-ir as the palate fancies. And the partisans of every particular kind of a pie are sure to ask for a second neip ing of real good apple pie if they think there is a ch-nce of getting it. All protests to the contrary, tnere is no better dumpling, "sass" or pie apple in the world than the Ben Davis which is so much despised by certain of the wise -men. More than that the Ben Davis has staying qualities of a su perior order. A barrel of them will "keep" for months longer under the conditions that prevail in the ordinary cellar, than will many other apples which are so much more delicious to bite into. Wh.n th- Winesaps, the athans, the Jennetings and the Maiden Blush have faded away into an irredeemable decay. the Ben rifvisos in a neighboring bin will be as sound as healthy nuts. They're always mAv for the Daring knife and me sauce pan, the dumpling dough or the embryo pie-crust. So why not give the Devn nis aue even when he happens to be the Ben Davis apple. SAFETY IN LOCATING WELLS. No well should be located where polluting matter has access to it. says the water Bupply paper issued by the United States geological survey. Such matter usually comes from cesspools or privies, slops thrown on the sur- i.:nrTe. fi-nm hpn vards. Dig- lace, uaLivi"5a v. v pens, and barnyards, from manured fields, animals falling into the water, and filth thrown in through the open top or washed in through tne pian. o n ion w easines. The mat ter entering through the top can be kept out by cement, iron, or other im- .,r-i-,4no-s! The entrance of material at the bottom of shallow wells can be prevented only Dy locai the reach of con tamination. Where any of the pol luting agents are present care bijoux v, .vr, to see that the well is lo cated at least 100 feet away and on distinctly higher ground, so that Dotn the surface drainage and the under ground drainage which generally in the nAine direction will be away from it. On flat sands the wells should be at leaat 150 feet from any dilution. The Importance of choosing a location safe from pol luting influences is almost universally ,,.,.tri T.avinsr aside considera tions of comfort and health, a safe well Is nearly always, in the long run, tne cheapest. Safety should invariably be made the first consideration instead of the last. CONSUMPTIVES AND FOOD. Many traditions with regard to the feeding of tuberculosis patients and with regard to food in general, are given severe blows in a series of articles published in the October num ber of the Journal of Outdoor Life, the official organ of the National Associa tion for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. Dr. John R. Murlin, of New Tork. as sistant professor of physiology at the Cornell University Medical college, holds in an article entitled "The Dyna mic Principles of Nutrition," that a consumptive will gain weight and do well on three pints of whole milk, eight ounces of cream, five ounces of milk sugar, six eggs and two slices of but tered toast, as a ration for each 24 hours. The entire diet with the ex ception of the bread and butter could be prepared in advance and served for a cost of about 50 cents for the day. Miss Cecilia Flick of the Henry Phipps Institute of Philadelphia, also offers some sample diets which the ordinary family can prepare for even less than 60 cents a day. Dr. David R. Lyman of Washington, D. C, both agree that the ordinary person eats too much, and that the old notions about stuffing a tubercu losis patient at all times and seasons have been proven false. Dr. Lyman holds that eggs are not a necessary ar ticle of the consumptive's diet, and that a tuberculosis patient should eat anything that agrees with him that is nourishing. He thinks that a tuber culosis patient should eat only a little more than a person in ordinary good health. Dr. Murlin compares the food we eat to the fuel used In furnishing steam and power for an engine. In selecting our food he says that we should eat enough to furnith energy for the day's work, but that much more than this is not needed. He holds that the appe tite Is not a necessity for good diges tion. "There !s no fallacy of nutri tion," he says, "greater than that which supposes that a food cannot be digested and utilized without appe tite." Most of the food we eat, fully four-fifths, goes to supply energy for our everyday tasks, while less than one-fifth goes to supply building material. JOURNAL ENTRIES A good natured man also seems to get more than his share of the worst of it. The weather goes from one extreme to another Just like the people who complain about it. Not a few men are religiously In clined for the money they hope to make out of such an attitude. An unusual mother is one who doesn't think her baby is the cutest and smartest child in the whole world. Did anyone ever get a letter, adver tised by the postofllce as having been unclaimed, that was worth the going after? J AY HAWKER JOTS The Ashland Clipper has arrived at the point where it confesses that it doesn't care a whoop whether he is Kimmel or White. Friends university at Wichita ap pears to be correctly named. One of them recently gave tne msin.ui.iuii janu valued at $36,000. Citizens of Sedgwick have signed a petition to Postmaster General tiitcn cock asking that their postoffice be permanently closed on bunaay. About a carload of colored water was sold at Hutchinson by one dealer during the fair week to people who thought they were getting beer. Peo ple gave the proper winks and signs raiH twentv-flve cents per pint bottle. The Independence Reporter suggests that "the postoffice department ought to send a tracer out right away. There has been no letter to Dawson from Stubbs or vice versa for forty-eight hours. This suspense is very unjust to the public." It is mighty unkind of Ralph Faxon to ask Governor Dick Hopkins right out loud whether he is for Taft or no'.. Can't Faxon see that if the governor answers it one way it will hurt him and if he answers it another way it won't do him any good? Why should a Re former be asked embarrassing ques tions, anyway? Isn't it enough that he Is a Reformer? Iola Register. All the members of the Anti-Horse Thief association went to Newton to attend a convention and while they were there, some thieves stole a team from a man named Bert Johnson, and the sheriff hasn't found the thieves. The Olpe Optimist says some member of the association ought to read a pa per at the next convention on "It Pays to Leave a Rear Guard or the Thieves Will Get the Horses." A man and his wife and little child were traveling through Doniphan coun ty in a covered wagon. They were ar rested and convicted of stealing an old hen and five little chickens. The man and wife were sent to jail, and the child was sent along with them. The man was poor and out of work. The woman was in feeble health and it was evident that they were in destitute circum stances. The courts make quick work when the defendant has no money. A significant thing, says Ralph Faxon, is happening at Lansing. War den Codding of the state penitentiary is using convict labor for a rock road frr-m Leavenworth to Kansas City. Some people will howl about it, but in times to come, Kansas will work con victs on the roads, the same as other states do. This will be accomplished without loss of men: with good soci ological results; and with splendid roads. Of course the constitution must be amended so as to permit the state to do large work; but this will come. GLOBE SIGHTS. From the Atchison Globe. Every young man talks a good deal about getting "settled." A man who takes a job just to try it, usually doesn't like it. The office that seeks the man isn t able to do much for him when it gets him. Women are inclined to believe that no man appreciates presents as he should. An old coin isn't often worth as much as the man who hangs onto it firmly believes. When some people get excited they do more talking with their hands than their mouths. Most of the other arguments against good roads amount to about as much as an aeroplane. Cold in the head dialect isn't very funny, particularly to the one who de livers it correctly. Most people have read enough nov els not to expect the heroine to be greatly overworked. Somehow we feel that a man who talks a great deal about the trains he robbed, never robbed any. We worry some, but the prospect that cutting Christmas trees will ruin the forests isn't the reason. It takes a mean man to show his generosity by dropping a counterfeit coin in the contribution box. It is also our notion that a bride groom has enough trouble without making presents to the ushers. It is said college men have an at mosphere of their own, but the same thing can be said of prize fighters. Some families are so large they should be named in alphabetical or der for the convenience of all con cerned. While the law doesn't always take its course, it is safe to assume that the bigamist doesn't often escape punishment I KANSAS COMMENT WHERE LIFE IS CHEAP. One isn't greatly shocked to read of the loss of many thousand lives by flood along the Yang-Tse-Kiang, by plague in Canton, or starvation on In dia's plains. In the crowded orient, life is cheap as most people know. It is held higher in the Occident, of course; at least in most western coun tries. But there are exceptions, it seems. Kipling has called Russia the w-est e:-d of the orient, but he is Eng lish and prejudiced; most authorities count the czar's domain among the western countries, and there life is rather cheap. It seems so, too, in Italy, where grim necessity forces peo ple to farm the steam heated edge of volcanoes with mean dispositions; where ignorance makes it difficult to fight cholera, and where crime is or ganized on a business basis. But one need not travel so far afield to find places where life is cheap. There is our own land of the free, and home of the more or less brave. We were thinking just now of the recent disaster at Austin, Pa., where upwards of a hundred lives were snuff ed out without time for a parting prayer. It was not as if that were an act of Providence, an unforeseen cat astrophe that none could stay. More than a year ago weaknesses developed in the dam above Austin which caused uneasiness, and which were pointed out in an illustrated article in the En gineering News. There was warning in that, of course, but the people below the dam didn't take it. And, what Feems more criminal, the owners of the dam did nothing to prevent the tragedy, and when it came, women and children were the great sufferers. There seems no legal way to get at the perpetrators of what is, in fact, a serious sin of omission. But the coun try contains many other death traps, and something might be done for the future. These are not all, nor mostly power dams or irrigation reservoirs. In the great cities they are found, in un sanitary tenements, which also serve as firetraps. and in factories of similar structure and arrangement. The rail road which uses flimsy coaches instead of steel cars, is unnecessarily risking life because life seems cheaper than new rolling stock. But more and more the railroads are improving in this re spect, .as in others. If houses and factories did as well, there would be less danger. Steamboats overloaded and with rotten life preservers, also i .1 n I o ..v pnnrlitinns Lfine, anu uuoaunu.j which waste life by slow process. AH these things, and more, including many murderers unpunished, indicate that'we should not scoff too much at the low estimate put on life by the stoics of the orient.

The gill had am bitions and she had done the best she could. If she had the millionaire's money she would have oressed as well as anyone for her purchase f cheap iV.iery mdi it.c rtin she had ambiti jn. But the sin of it is tha such girls attract de spicable men. They see her cheap fine ry and know that she is ambitious. Then thev play upon her hopes and ac complish their lustful purposes. That is where the harm comes In, not in the clothes. A gi-1 ought to be en couraged to dress the best she can. Your clothes are probably about as tawdy to the millionaire's daughter as this common girl's are to you. It U after all a difference Of circumstances. The girl who dresses the best she knows how is entitled to encourage ment We dislike to see this because we understand that it is a sign for mean men. That's the only reason why it should be discouraged. Every girl ought to be encouraged to dress the best she can with her means. Law rence Journal-World. TFR0M OTHER PENS THE FARMER'S CONTRIBUTION. The year has not been a good one on the farm. Drought, the farmer's most ancient and dreaded enemy, did its best to stop growth during July and August, and partly succeeded. It is in teresting to note what the farmer has been able to pull through in a poor ear. The farmer has raised wheat enough to give every family more than ten barrels of flour. Each family's allot ment of corn is 150 bushels, of oats 50 bushels, of potatoes 45 bushels. In addition there are such odds and ends of more than a bushel of rice per fam ilv, and more than a bushel of buck wheat. There is no need for any ono in this broad land going hungry. A balanced ration sufficient for all can be provided out of these supplies. But these figures of the next year's food supply do not suggest that food prices are to lower. On the contrary, they are likely to be higher to the whothoi. thv will he hieher to the consumer depends on whether or n it the consumers will nave energy and intelligence enough to lessen the nvnctiAno rxf tho Vira rtf middlemen that now fatten to the injury of both producer ana consumer, x ne ciih nces are that the middlemen will continue rt vnVi nnr(1in rt tn nrPRPIlt nfaC- tice.

WHAT THE COUNTRY NEEDED. President Taft performed a splendid public service yesterday at Waterloo, Iowa, when he asked the people to abandon their hostility to prosperity and join together in teamwork for the community. He gave lawbreakers no comfort, but he did give law abiding men and corporations the strongest as surance that their efforts to promote nrosDeritv should not be antagonized and nullified. If the president had nothing further to say on his trip, the Waterloo address would be well worth the exertion of his long journey. It breathes such a broad, tolerant spirit and it expresses the desire of the evervday working American citizen so aptly that it will do both the president and the country lmmeasuraDie gooa. Capitalist and wage earner find in the president's utterances tne desire tnat animates them both, and they are likely to be brought closer together by studying his counsel. Washington Post.

"She's the postmistress of Hollywood." Spinner bowed, courtierlike. "I won dered why they had a lady for post master here till now," he flattered. Miss Brooks seemed made for llat tery; she was little and blonde and very pretty. But Just now her dimples wire under stern control, and she appraised Spinner with a swift, keen glance. "Mr. Spinner Is from Chicago," vol unteered Aldrieh. "Yes," smiled Spinner easily, "from the big, wicked city. Fifty centa' worth of twos, please." There was no haste in his speech, yet one might gam the impression that he aid not care to havo Alorich ditcuss himself and his visit with the postmistress. i j 1 1 f rt ii i .rpat e-nod -n&tured. honest John, had discussed people and things too long wiin num u")"" change now.

"Mr. Aldrieh is one of the many people in moderate circumstances wuo is going to share in the wealth that rubber is pouring into this country. We are not asking the big capitalists to come in." "What dividend do you pay? inter rupted Ruth. "On a thousand dollars? Twenty dol lars a month." Spinner's prominent gray eyes, which had the trick of look ing at one either too much or not enough, narrowed watchfully. His wide slack mouth, the mouth of a reaiy talker, tightened under his dyed mus- taThe nostmistress smiled frostly. "Good interest, John," she comment ed; "24 per cent a year!" "Isn't it?" said John, heartily. He saw that his old friend and his new did not seem especially cordial, and n-j wsnted things harmonious. "That s more than a farm, or even a store, would pay me. The money is in Has arsville bank. Mr. Spinner is going to drive over with me tomorrow. Spinner, sure of his man, despite the girl's disapproval, grew guardedly in solent. "Do you care to invest, Miss Brooks?" he asked, with a smile. Before she could answer, the door was opend briskly. A stranger strode in ani without ceremony took the prosperous looking Spinner aside. They conversed in an undertone for a few moments. Then Spinner turned back. "Where 'does Zebulon Cole live, Al drieh?" "Fifteen miles east." Spinner frowned thoughtfully. Ana Hagarstown is west?" "Yes- eighteen miles." "Then I'm afraid I can't go over witn you tomorrow. Mr. Cole has sent for me; he wants to Invest with us. We couldn't make the two trips, in ttte shape the roads will be." He nodded toward the outdoors, where the firs, heavy snowfall of the winter was fill ing the ruts and blanketing the walks. He glanced calculating from John to the mutinous face of the postmistress. "Tell you what, though; we could go the next day." Aldrieh looked up in surprise. "Why. you told me you had a directors' meet ing in Chicago!" Spinner's start of recollection was well done. "That's so; I'd forgotten all about it." He took a heavy envelope from his pocket. Across the face of it was printed in staring black type, the ad dress of the Condor company. He af fixed a half dozen of the stamps he had Just purchased to the upper right-hand corner, wrote "Special delivery" be neath them, and handed it to Aldrieh. "You can send the money in that," he said. "Don't buy a draft. Get hundred dollar bills, pin them to a sheet of heavy paper and send them along. And be sure to get the letter away tomor row. All stock subscriptions must be in ten days before the first of the month in order to participate in the regular monthly dividend. You can mail it at Hagarstown." John shook his head. "We patronize our own postoffice," he replied, with a smile. "The salary of the postmaster depends on the amount of business done, you know." "Quite right!" returned the promoter, heartily. He had won and could afford to be magnanimous. "And now I must make arrangements for an early start tomorrow." He swept off his silk hat and bowed low, revealing the fact that his thin hair was dyed, too. "Godd-by, Miss Brooks. Glad to have met you. If you d.sire to invest, Mr. Aldrieh can give you our address. Come along, Aldrieh, I want to talk to you." Spinner slipped a triumphant hand through the arm of the fluttered John. Followed by the messenger from Zebu Ion Cole, they left the office.

The pine box which served as a receptacle for -....--.-.-ir m 'I i i Ii-'i n tti fieri rl gn-av frnm the slot in the partition, so she might closing hour, everything was in order. Nothing remained but to tie up the meager grist of letters, lock them in the mail bag and dispatch them to the Chicago train by Robbie, her brother and after-school assistant. There was a clatter at the front could see It was John Aldrieh, scraping tne snow oil. his anoes, preparmury iu entering. Ab he stepped in, a letter In I his hand, Ruth slipped out the back door. Robbie, whistling, sorted and tied the mail. John dropped the long envelope into the letter slot and hur ried out, alrost guiltily. Robbie, en grossed in his task, did not turn round. Two days later Aldrieh came on his delivery wagon, a worried look on his face. "Got a telegram from Mr. Spin ner, Ruth," he said. "My money hadn't reached there yet. What do you lmag ine's wrong? I mailed the letter here night before last." "The mail went out as usual," re plied Ruth. "Robbie tied it up. We'll send out a tracer." The next afternoon Aldrieh came back again. His face usually ruddy. was white as chalk. "Did you see the i papers?" he asked. "The police have! closed up the Condor Crude Rubber Company. And they're looking for Spinner. They say he's he's a swind ler." With trembling hands he unfolded the newspaper which he held. "Here's a partial list of the losers. Zebulon Cole is in it for four thousand dollars. My name isn't there, Ruth. Do you think he didn't get my money? Or was! he trying to fool me into sending i more?" j "I didn't like that Spinner," replied Ruth irrelevantly. "I didn't like his, mouth, or his eyes. And he dyed his hair. It ir funny about the letter, John. Maybe Robbie overlooked it somehow. Come in and we'll look around." She opened the door in the partition. They searched, very thoroughly for half an hour, but the little workroom yielded nothing. They were about to give up in despair when John kicked, tentatively, the receptacle for outgoing mail. "Do you ever move that box, Ruth? If it was out a little bit. a let ter from the slot would drop behind it." "Why, yes!" answered Ruth, excited ly. "I sweep behind it. I moved it that night Oh. Goody!" For John had swung it aside and there, standing upright against the bottom of the partition, was his letter. He seized it eagerly and tore it open. Yes, his ten one-hundred dollar bills were inside, just as he had sealed them up. "Ruth," he said, huskily, with shin ing eyes. "I need a guardian! But for you, I'd have lost this, every cent of it I guess I'm too easy. Will you marry me, dear? I want you; I've always wanted you." When John went happily home that night, of a sudden an idea came to him, and he chuckled to himself: "The little rascal: I believe she left that box out from the wall on purpose!" (Copyright, 1911, by Associated Liter ary Press). Willi tlie Nature Fakers. In the future when the cat on tha back fence makes night hideous re member that the animal is not doiujj this because it desires to keep you awake, but merely for the purpose of determining whether it Is best fitted for strings for a first violin or was in tended by nature to become a pari of the equipment of a bass viol. Do not hurl the contents of the china closet at it. Pause and remember that there is not only a silver lining behind every cloud, but a sweet-toned violin string back of every feline yo-l. Squire Baldwin, of. Codar Grove. N. J., has solved the question that has worried makers of violin strings foi' years. Heretofore not until the. nine lives of a cat had been lost and Its interior developed commercially was it possible to tell whether a cat would yield A, E, or D strings. Now it is different. The squire places his cat in a box. He prefers the black kind. A brush in the box softly strokes the fur of the chest and another rubs its back. The tail of the cat is then pulled until it ceases to purr and lets forth a yelU The brushes, connected with a delicate electrical apparatus, register the tone of the cat. The length of his existence after that Im pends upon the demand for the kind of fiddle strings he will make. The squire says there is no uncer tainty about the outcome, except in a young cat whose voice Is changing. He says the dl-anhram of every one of them Is a sounding board which rings true when the cat yells. The st-ings made from any one cat never vary, according to the squire. If he registers a deep bass, every string Is a bass. There la no needless sacri ficing of cats under .he new system. If E strings are running short, oniy cats that will furnish that class of string? are placed In the lethal cham ber. New York American. QUAKER MEDITATIONS. From the Philadelphia Record. The aeroplane joke is apt to fall flat. It is never too late to learn that it is too late. Even the self made man may feel that he has cheated himself. It takes a blacksmith to shoe a horse, but anybody can shoo a hen. A fool and his money are soon part ed that others may make both ends meet. The fellow who fails to rise in the world can blame it on the law of grav itation. Many an emotional actress sheds real tears, especially if her play Is a failure. Fame is often acquired by men who are highly esteemed by those who don't know them very well. Many a man would rather borrow a dollar than earn it, in spite of the fact that it costs more effort. It's the unexpected that always hap pens, except when a man makes a fool of himself over a woman. Hoax De Lancy-Rittenhouse Is a man of parts."

From the Chicago News.. What some men enjoy would drive others to drink. A girl isn't necessarily angelic be cause she is flighty. Not all the high flyers are interested in aerial navigation. Probably the worst thing about poli tics is the politicians. What we think of others often de pends on what they think of us. Perhaps Adam blamed it on his wife because he had no mother-in-law. It's what you are doing now that counts; not what you are going to do. A young widow a sigh is more dan gerous than the smile of a summer girl. Don't be a camel, even if that ani mal can go for two weeks without tak ing a drink. The wise girl doesn't take any chances by wearing a lot of pins in the vicinity of her waist line. A pretty girl doesn't have to care whether a certain young man likes her or not. There are others. A tax on bachelors would not reduce the supply of spinsters. Most bachelors would rather pay a fine, anyway. We view with alarm any attempt to make a republic out of China. Head ing the list of Real American Mar tyrs, we find E.

Under the most favorable of circumstance, hla pathway is noted for conspicuous absence of rosea or other common flora. AND, feller cit izens, WHAT would be the result of a change In Chink management? WHY, feller citizens, under a repub lic, every Chinese citizen would be en titled to the right to run for office; several hundred millions of the lemon colored simps would enter the prima ries in a bunch; each ochre-hupd stiff would stump each province from Lan Which to t'hing-How, and our es teemed A.

A Manhattan woman got a divorce and half of her husband's property be cause he kissed a 42-year-old Kansas City School Teacher.

As rapidly as these pianos are received they are overhauled, cleaned, tuned and made as ood as new. The number of these pianos has become quite large, and we are now anxious to riisDose of every one of them. In our estimation there is only one way to accomplish this in a hurry, and that is to cut the prices to where they belong. Run your eye over the list below and you will recognize some names that have been known to you for years. If you are looking for a piano bargain you can't afford to overlook this ent. conaider the regular prices that have been and are asked for these instru ments you will be astonished to the prices we have affixed.

"If Christ was not more than mere man. He was the supreme egotist of the world." was the declaration of Dr. D. M. Fisk in speaking Sunday at the First Congregational church. Then the speaker went on to tell why he considered that Christ is divine. "Who else would dare to say, t am the light of the world? Put that in mere man's mouth, and where are you? I think that Jesus was perfectly a man, but he was something more." ARCILEK JURY FINALLY AGREES. Convicts Yonng Negro of Manslaugh ter for Murder of Fathep-in-Law. After almost 24 hours' deliberation, the jury in the Archer murder case returned a verdict late Saturday even ing convicting the young negro of man slaughter in the third degree. The ver dict was a compromise of a hopeless tangle that threatened to cause a re trial of the case. Most of the day Saturday the jury hung between acquittal and varying degrees of manslaughter. Then the men who were voting for greater punish ment dropped to the third degree of manslaughter and at 4:30 the jurors who had stood out for acquittal mer them. Judge Whitcomb was not in the court house when a decision was reached and it was late in the evening when the verdict was read in open court. Harry Archer was tried for the shoot ing of William Murphy when the two men quarrelled last July. Archer plead ed self-defense and a stubborn fight was made for his acquittal. An ettoit will be made to secure the minimum sentence of six months in jail for the young man. The maximum penalty is three years in the state penitentiary. Saved Vessel "With Sail of Lumber.

Talks to Socialists on "Social Control." COST OF AllMOUIt BACON Cheaper in Cascade, Colo. Than in Topeka. 'Prices of Commodities Should Be Government Regulated." "Where is the Ethiopian in the wood-pile? "Would some butcher kindly tell me why the best Armour's bacon was sold to me for 26 cents at Cascade, Col., and here the same amount costs 35 cents?" These questions were asked by Prof. Daniel M. Fisk, professor of sociology at Washburn college, before the meet ing of the Socialists at the Crystal theater last night. Speaking to the topic "Social Control," he advocated government regulation of the prices of commodities, allowing only a reason able profit on articles retailed based on the actual value received by the purchased. He also cited how the ex press companies were unreasonable in their rates and would not deliver whether express was prepaid or not further west than Fillmore street in Topeka or further south than Thir teenth. In addition he said that a cer tain packing house in Topeka sold its goods cheaper out of town than in the home city. His address in part follows: "I do not call myself a Socialist, I am only a learner, but and I would Just as soon be quoted as to this: I am keenly in sympathy with many socialistic principles. "The first rule was the rule of the clan father as In savage timesi then the rule of a few elders and then the rule of a few monied men. "For instance: Mr. Dick of Chicago controls nearly all of the patents on neo-styles and mimeograph. When you use these machines you must sign a contract not to use any ink or equip ment with it except that sent out by his company. The equipment is made of cheap materials but the ink, for in stance, costs $2 for a small bottle. "By social control I mean we should have government men who could find out how much less such things could be sold -with good profit and make the manufacturers stick to that reasonable price. Cost of Medicine. "The other day I bought a seven ounce bottle of cordial a a drug store. It was composed of water, cooking soda, rhubarb and peppermint, cheap materials, but it cost me 70 cents, or 10 cents an ounce. I think that that is a monstrous price considering the cheapness of the composition of the medicine. Social control would com pel druggists to show the value of that stuff and if the price is exorbitant, it would be reduced to its proper cost, giving the manufacturer, jobber and retailer only a reasonable profit. "A friend employed in a jobbing house told me the cost of pencils re tailed at 60 cents per dozen was only 24 cents a dozen wholesale. Do ycu think the difference of 36 cents profit for the retailer which is paid by the pupils who use the pencils, is Just the square deal for them? "In Cascade, Col., the best Armour's bacon cost me 26 cents. Here it costs 36 cents. And Cascade is 700 miles fur ther from Kansas City where it is made than In Topeka. Would some butcher kindly explain it? Where is the Ethiopian in the wood-pile? "The four express companies have agreed not to deliver express even when prepaid further south than Thirteenth street and further west than Fillmore street in Topeka. "We hear a great deal about the 'sanctity of contracts' in the courts, but when a contract is on one side and a man on the other and he is being; ground to powder I think we should talk about the sanctity of men. "At present the doctrine of 'every fellow for himself prevails. A busi ness man, if heis craftier, shrewder and more unscgruplous than his ocmpetitors can make more money than they and can run his steam roller over the other fellows. "But why ought little children have their lives ground out, working in the cotton mills all night until thy are sleep-starved? "Why ought women's lives be sacri ficed as in the New York factory wheve many girls were burned to death bo cause of lack of fire escapes? "However a move is going on for the better. In many places the child la bor law prevents the exploitation of children. And social control will be established, prices of commodities will be investigated and reduced so that the consumer pays a reasonable price, giv ing manufacturer. Jobber and retailer a reasonable profit and no more, when the answer to the old question: 'Am I my brother's keeper?' will be uni versally: 'I am.' PLAN CO-OPERATIVE STORE. Socialists Also Will Establish Meekly Newspaper. The Independent Socialist league is planning a co-operative store to be op erated upon a profit sharing basis, ac cording to arrangements Btarted at a meeting at the Aurora theater Sunday Wrinkles and Double Chin Re moved by Applied Heat. (Women's Events.) The average woman is often sur prised after she has spent good money for them and tried them faithfully, to discover that the numerous patent pre parations advertised to remove wrink les, "crow's feet," enlarged pores and a double chin are not effective, either temporarily or permanently. Also, she becomes rather wary and is loath to believe that the old- fashioned thermo-dized- jelly, which she can buy of any druggist, will surely and safely make wrinkles, enlarged and double chin vanish. This supplies heat-energy and nourishment. The first application will show her that thermodized jelly will do more good than all the patent remedies put together. Half a tea spoonful rubbed into the face until it is absorbed, and followed by a wash of very cold water, is the way to obtain best results. Used daily, really marvel ous results will follow. Removing Muddiness and Blem ishes From the Complexion. (Ladies' Quarterly Review.) It is a foolish makeshift to attempt hiding a sallow complexion or. for that matter, a poor complexion of any kind. One can easily clear the skin itself by applying coleated balsam at night washing it off In the morning with warm water and soap. The coleated balsam-is an enemy of dirt, germs and diseased particles of flesh, which clog the pores and In time the face to be come unsightly with either sallowness, pinmples, liver spots, etc. There is no reason in the world why you should continue to tolerate these blemishes; coleated balsam will attack them and drive them away once and forever. The diseased portions of the flesh "fleck off" in tiny particles, re vealing the normal, fresh, lovely com plexion of youth beneath. You can get of your druggist an ounce and a half of coleated balsam. After a few days' treatment the skin will begin to look brilliant and clear and youthful. afternoon. The store will likely be opened about November 1. The idea is to sell shares in the store at $15 a share, the stipulation being that no one is to buy more than one share. Another co-operative plan to be put in practice is a socialist weekly paper to be edited by W. E. Bush of Oak land, former secretary of state. The name of the paper will be selected by a voting -contest to be carried on this week. Mr. Bush addressed the meet ing on "Mistakes of Socialists." He said that while some socialists had be come prominent by advocating and practicing free love, that the socialist doctrine did not teach it. He also de nied the charge that socialism is op posed to religion, stating that as re ligion was each man's private affair, socialism had nothing to oo with it. HOPKINS MAKES FIRST DENIAL. Say 'fhot.II Isn't Attorney for the Santa Fe. Garden City, Oct. 16. Richard J. Hopkins, candidate for congress, gave out the following today: Mr. Hopkins said: "I am not now and never have been attorney for the Santa Fe or any other railroad. I do not have a pass on the Santa Fe or any other railroad and statements to the effect that I have, are absolutely false. In this connection I want to em phasize the statement, I have hereto fore made through the press and on the stump, that I endorse the amend ments made to the interstate commerce law by the last regular session of con gress and I favor such further amend ments as will empower the interstate commerce commission to make a physical valuation of the railroads, telegraph, express and interstate tele phone companies and give said com mission authority over the issue of stocks and bonds of all common car riers. "I believe that the Seventh congres sional district of Kansas ought to have a square deal in the matter of freight and express rates and, if nominated and elected to congress, I will work and vote for laws that will procure such a square deal."

Barratt, founder of the North Topeka Baptist church, and retired pastor of the church, was knocked down by an automobile at 933 North Kansas avenue about noon today. He was severely bruised and sustained several cuts about the face and head, but is able to bo up. He was standing near the car track and did not see the auto which was coming south on North Kansas ave nue. The machine struck him. He fell to the ground and lay stunned un til several came to his aid. They lift ed him up and found that he was not dangerously hurt. He was taken to his home at 1009 North Quincy street in the auto. The machine stopped within a few lengths of the man after it knocked him down. A horse belonging to a huckster in front of the store was frightened at. the approach of the auto and broke from the harness. It started to run, but was soon caught. Rev. Mr. Barratt is hard of hear ing and likely did not hear the auto coming. The auto belonged to Roger-Davis real estate firm, and was driven by Joe Radcliffe. R. W. Rouse and a Mr. Scott were in the car. "We were going south on Central avenue, about seven miles an hour," said Mr. Radcliffe, this afternoon. "As we came down Kansas avenue, Mr. Barratt was standing near the car tracks. I swerved to avoid him, but the fender caught his hip and dragged him down. I stopped as soon as pos sible, and went to him. "He would not let me call a doc tor, saying that he was not hurt bad ly and didn't need any. I took him homo and washed his head. He seemed to be cut a little on the back of the head, but still insisted that he did not need a doctor." James McKibben, secretary of the Boston Chamber of Commerce, Is vis iting his mother, Mrs. C. A. Chilson, just north of Topeka on the Central avenue road. Mr. McKibben has been irr Boston for about 20 years.

KEGRO SHOOTS NEGRO. Did It as "Act of Mercy to Save Him self," Newborn Wails. Ernest Newborn, a "foreign" negro, shot and probably fatally wounded "Bud" Moore, a local black, Sunday morning at 9 o'clock when he fired at Myrtle Cheney, a negress with whom he had been quarreling. The couple were standing near the corner of First and Monroe streets and Moore was running to the woman's assistance when the shot was fired. The bullet was a steel-jacket and passed through Moore's stomach. He was taken to tha St. Francis hospital where his condi tion today is said to be growing worse and death likely. A crowd of about 200 negroes gath ered at the scene of the shooting in a few minutes after Moore fell and vio lence to the "foreign" negro was avert ed only by the proximity of police at the time. Sergeant Sauls, Detective Anderson and Patrolman Palmer were in the vicinity working on a robbery case and hurried to the place. They kept Newborn in a nearby coal office until the patrol wagon arrived from the station. On the way to the prison and after being booked, Newborn repeated time and again, "I shot him as an act of mercy to save myself." The logic of the negro's explanation in that sen tence is hard to detect. He claims the local negroes have been after him since he came to Topeka recently from Ten nessee and opened a restaurant. The gun he carried was the latest Colt "po lice special," 38 cal., and made for an extra long cartridge. A state warrant charging murder is being prepared for him todav. DROP THE CASE Sondergard-Martin Suit Is Wiped Out. Former Topeka Physician Will Pay the Costs. John P. Sondergard's suit against Dr. F. H. Martin for the alienation of Mrs. Sondergard's affections, was dismissed today in Judge Dana's divi sion of the district court. The case was on the assignment for Tuesday's trial, but atotrneys for Sondergard filed a journal entry today in which they dropped the sensational action against the former Topeka physician. It was in 190 3 that Mrs. Sondergard came to Topeka and entered a local hospital as a trained nurse. She was accomplished and good looking and her apparent regard for the Topeka physician soon became a matter of common gossip. s Dr. Martin was an attache of the institution and was much in the woman's company. To gether they made trips and attended theaters. ..V Then, it is claimed that Martin in duced the womanto bring an action against her husband for divorce. After the decree was granted, Martin mar ried the woman and they moved to Iola. Sondergard declared his home had been wrecked and filed suit in the Shawnee county eourt for $25,000 damages. When the caseV was first tried in February, 1905, a jury awarded Son dergard $1,000 damages. Motion for a new trial was sustained, and at the second hearing the plaintiff received judgment for $2,001. Martin appeal ed and about a year ago the case was remanded for rehearing. The case was on the assignment for trial at the April term of court, but was continued. It; is understood that Martin has agreed to pay the costs of the several trials and Sondergard re ceives only the satisfaction of .a pro longed lawsuit as heart balm for his eight years of mental suffering.

Southwestern scored a field goal in the first quarter, and held the Njrrn.il rcoreloss until the last quarter, although the first half ended with the Normals on the Meth odist's one-yard line. A succession of gains ;n the third quarter brought the Normals within striking distance and Marlowe went over for a touchdown at the begin lr' i? g of the fourth. Five minutes later White received the ball on the 80-yard line, shook off a half dozen tackler3 and ran brilliantly for another touchdown. The visitors play ed listlessly after the opening quarter, while the Normals grew stronger.

The general assembly at high school this morning was turned into an oid fashioned enthusiasm meeting. The football team was called up to the platform, and the boys of the school were grouped in one section and the girls In another. Kirk Meecham was appointed cheer leader, and led the school in giving the high school yells. Manager J. L. Montgomery made a speech in which he told of the football game last Saturday, and of the square treatment Topeka received at the hands of St. Joe. He also stated that several authorities on football men tioned to him 'that it was the best high school football game that they had ever seen. Captain George Heil also made a short speech in which he urged the students to come out to the game here next Saturday. Heil was present ed with the football that was won from St. Joe. Principal A. J. Stout of the high school read the recent ruling of the board of education In regard to th students being forced to be vaccinated. The sale of season tickets is not pro gressing very well, according to Man ager Montgomery. Over two hundred of the students who pledged themselves to take one or more of the tickets, have not shown up to pay for their tickets yet. When the high school team returned from St. Joe late Saturday night, they were met by about seventy-five high school boys who styled themselves the reception committee. They had pro vided themselves with plenty of red fire, and it was lighted when the squad left the train. One of the men on the team said. "If we get this kind of a welcome every time we win an out of town game, we will proceed to win all of them." Efforts are being made at the high school to form a rooters club, com posed of four hundred boys, and six hundred girls. In other words to form the whole school Into one large rooting club.

The dates for the winter features of the Karnival Knights' entertainments have not been set. But the young men are positive that nothing less than a winter of fun in preparation for the annual Karnival night celebration af ter state fair week, will be worked out. A big minstrel show will be the first efforts of the Knights. It is stated that at least 400 male voices can be recruited from the present member chip of 1,500 young men.

A petition signed by 100 property owners in the Westlawn park benefit district, asking that the balloon flights of the Western Aero association be continued despite the efforts of citizens in that district objecting to the ascen sions, was presented and rejected by the board of city commissioners thi3 morning. The big petition was supported by speakers and all sorts of argument but the commissioners have joined the "don't disturb our slumbers" class and they filed the petition without any favorable action. The city commissioners are under the impression that balloon flying is dangerous. Every known theory fails to receive their interest. Even when it is shown that out of 33,000 flights in Europe out of the crowd2d cities not one fatality resulted, the commission ers cling to the old superstition of dan ger in soaring through the air. The ban placed on flights from West lawn park probably will lose the inter city and regular flights to Topeka. The Commercial club may make an, effort to instill a little civic patriotism into the old fashioned city officers. They are all fresh bulbs at the Zim merman Seed Co. Come in, make your seiection right away. UNION STAGE HANDS. Will Be Employed in Crawford Thea ters Hereafter. An amicable agreement between the Crawfords here and the theater man union stage hands employed at the agement which threatened a boycott on the theaters was made Saturday night. The Crawfords made out a list of men that they would employ if taken into the union and the union men agreed to it. Nonunion men have been employed at the theaters for some time. On thi3 account when the Grand opened with the Prince of Tonight company this season, the company's scene shifters who were union men were called out and chorus men and others had to oo the necessary work. The next step was a vote on the part of the Typographical Union to boycott the theater as long as nonunion men were employed and that a fine of $2 be assessed to any of the union breaking the boycott. It appeared that otner industrial unions would follo-v their example according to talk mads However, representatives of the stage hands met Roy Crawford Saturday night and the agreement was reached. WON A BIO SUIT. Brother of Ed Howe Gets a Slice of Oklahoma City. Dr. C. F. Howe, of Atchison, is in Topeka today and the news of winning of a 22 year old suit in the United States court of appeals, has made Howe one of the happiest men in the. state. He is one of seven heirs of the late Henry Howe, and the action in the federal courts involved land in the heart of Oklahoma City, which is today valued at $2,000,000. The bis suit is an echo of the ruf fian days in the opening of the "Okla homa strip." Dr. Howe's father won a valuable 160 acre claim and a few months later it was contested by Mil ton Parker. On three occasions the contest has been before the secretary of the interior, but the settlement has never been satisfactory to the claim ants.

Howe aeaied to the circuit court of appeals i-i St. Louis. While the case was pend ing. Howe died and the litigation waj continued by the seven children. Be fore leaving for Topeka Dr. Howe re ceived a telegram announcing that the Howe estate had won the final battle in the prolonged contest for the Okla homa land. The land in controversy is in the very heart of Oklahoma City and on part of the soil is located the proposed site fo the new Oklahoma state capitol build ing. It is conservatively estimated that the 160 acres of land is now worth $2, 000,000. While the Parker-Howe caae waa pending in the federal courts, tlie value cf the land was increasing by leaps and bounds. New modern office buiicings were erected on the lots which were a part of the Howe claim and the city expanded its '.-orporate lim its and increased its population to sur prising proportions. r.r-n te state voted to remove the site of the stats capitol from Guthrie to Oklahoma City and the commission named to select a site for the new state buildinjr, chose the property claimed by the litigants as the most desirable in the city. Work on the capitol building was de layed pending the final decision of the St. Louis court, and Dr. Howe says h? jumped three feet in the air when he received the telegram that the estate had wjn the fight. It means uearly 1300.000 to each of the seven children of the late Henry Howe and is enouga to make anyone happy. "It is the oldest contest ovrr the set t'ement of the original Oklahoma strip," said Dr. Howe, while dicusflng the cai"? in Topeka today, "anil the location of the land has made it immensely valu able. It was the happient day of mv life when I received the telegram that we had won." Dr. Howe will go to Oklahoma City in a few davs to look after the dfTair of the estate. V. ill Ioc.

8 THE TOPEKA DAILY STATU JOX7ENAE MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 16, 1911. FUNK INA SUIT Prominent Witness in Lorimer Case Is Sued. John C. IInning Wants $25,000 for Alienation. WOH AX HOTEL CASHIER Wronged Husband Is a Chicago Street Car Conductor. International HarvesterCo.Jlan ager Calls It Blackmail. Chicago, Oct. 16. Much interest was taken today in the disclosure that Mrs. John C: Henning, whose affections Clarence C. Funk, general manager it the International Harvester company is charged with having alienated from her husband, is a former assistant to the cashier of the Dutch and German rooms In the Congress hotel here. Hen ning himself was for several yean em ployed as a checker in the same hotel. Recently he has worked as a street car conductor. He asks for $25,000. Mrs. Henning is described as a strik ing looking ycung woman of a pr nounced brunette type. Before her mar riage her name was Miss Josephine O'RiUey. Mr. Funk denounces the suit as a frameup, and says he does not know either Josephine or Jonn Henning. He testified before the Helm committas and later in the present United States senate inquiry that Edward Hines so licited $10,000 from him on behalf of the harvester committee to help re coup his expenses in "putting L,orim;r over." Since Mr. Funk gave this testimony the Lorimer contingent has "shadow ed" him continuously and has assailed him in various ways. The attorneys who filed the Henning suit and simultaneously filed a declara tion or bill of complaint an unsual proceeding are Daniel Donahoe and James Hartnett, law partners, who have lorg been identified with Lorimer and the Lorimer crowd. The lawyers, while making no secret of the fact the Funk named in the suit Is the same Clarence S. Funk who tes tified ag:i"at Senator Lorimer. declin ed to disclose the identity of their cli ent. Ko claim for damages ever was made on Mr. Funk prior to the time Dona hoe Hartnett ftied their action. A report last night from Mobile. Ala., said that the Hennings concerned in the action are both in that city, liv ing together. Funk Tells Strange Story. The filing of the suit brough to light a sensational incident in which a man who has testified in the Lorimer case figured. On July 8 last a young woman called Mr. Funk on the telephone. She said she was at the Congress hotel and was anxious to see him. She asked that he call without delay. Mr. Funk re plied he would come and bring a friend with him. She protested, saying she desired to see him alone, and ex pressed a willingness to come to his office. She said she would call on him immediately. There is a high settee in Mr. Funk's office, and on the advice of his attor neys, whom he consulted, a stenog rapher was concealed behind it. When the young woman was ushered into the office she found Mr. Funk alone. She is described as a beautiful "poster girl" or about 19 or 20. She was neat ly, though fashionably. dressed, and appeared to be modest and under good control. She told Mr. Funk her name, said she formerly lived in Chicago, and then arrated the following story: "I was ill at my home in Denver. A man telephoned he desired to see me. I said he might call, but when he came the nurse refused to permit him to talk to me. I then suggested he call on a friend of mine. "When I recovered I took the train for Chicago. I saw a man swing on the car as the train pulled out. He was without baggage. This man ap proached me on the train. He intro duced himself as the person who had telephoned to my house and regretted not having seen me in Denver. "He told me his family had been broken up by you, Mr. Funk, and that he wanted me to aid him in having you punished. He then went on to tell me about things you had done to me. 'Funk has wronged you,' he sajd, "and I want you to help me to punish him for the wrongs he has committed against both of us." "I said I did not know Mr. Funk and never had seen him. He insisted Mr. Funk had wronged me, which I repeated was not true. When I came to Chicago this morning a man called me on the telephone. He said he was a friend of the person who saw me on the train and would like to meet me and take me for an automobile ride. I told him I did not wish to see him. "After thinking the matter over I thought you, Mr. Funk, should know these facta." The young woman was cross-examined by Mr. Funk's attorneys, but per sisted her story was true. She left the office and returned to her hotel. Three days later a witness in the Lor imer case called on her at the hotel and they went automobiling together. Subsequently the young woman re turned to Denver, where she married. Mr. Funk never has seen or heard from her since. The story she told is particularly interesting, however, in view of the suit which Henning has filed against the International Har vester official. Has No Lorimer Connection. "I wouldn't do Mr. Funk an injus tice." said Attorney Donahoe when a second request was made for the iden tity of the Hennings. "But the defendant insists he does Potato Chips Our Own Make FRESH WM. GREEN SON GROCERY CO. 1 U msm m n tv. hrm ty 010RR0W 1 ii n't know any such man or woman," ha was told. "That will come out later when the case is tried," the attorney said. "If he wants to know let him appear in court, for this case will not be settled out of court." The last statement by the attorney for Henning is pointed to by Funk's friends as in accord with the belief of the friends of Mr. Funk, who declare that there is no monetary object in the filing of the suit, but simply a plot to discredit the International Harvester man. Mr. Donahoe grew angry when mention was made of the Lorimer angle of the case and the statement of Mr. Funk declaring the suit a "frameup." "I want to say my client never knew and does not know Senator Lorimer," he shouted. "This has nothing to do was the Lorimer case in any way. I have nothing to do with the Lorimer matter, I tell you, and never had." Hennings in the South. Henning and his wife were reported to be in Mobile. Ala., today by detec tives employed by Mr. Funk. Counsel for Mr. Funk declared that efforts would be made to have the suit against him called for trial in the near future. James H. Marble, attorney for the United States investigating committee inquiring into the case of Senator Lorimer, and Edgar A. Bancroft, at torney for Mr. Funk, held several con ferences today, the details of which were not made public. SEVEN ARE DEAD. Omaha Express on Missouri Pacific Wrecked.

PARADE COMES NEAR. Brothers Watch Taft Prepara tions With Interest. They Spend Time in Their Cells Heading. Los Angeles, Oct. 16. From his win dow today in the cell of the county jail John J. McNamara, secretary of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Ironworkers awaiting trial after his brother, James B., could see the crowds on the line of march arranged for president Taft. The route not only passed the Los Angeles Times building which the MeSamaraa are al leged to have caused to be destroyed but it approached the new hall of rec ords where the case is being tried. "What have you been doing most of the time?" John J. was asked today. "Reading," he answered. "And what?" "Books, magazines and newspapers. I've been writing many letters too." Counsel for the McNamaras have for bidden them to discuss the case and though they have frequent visitors, the latter usually are accompanied wUh some one from the office of Mr. Dar row, chief counsel for the defense. Will Cost Half a Million. Estimates as to the total cost of the trial furnished a frequent topic of con versation in Los Angeles. That it will cost a total of more than $500,000 was the statement of Mr. Darrow today. His approximation was received with interest in view of the fact that he has been counsel in similar big cases ex tending over a long period of time. A large share of this amount will be borne by the county. It has been lo-ind necessary to swear many depu ties to assist in the conduct of the trial and their salaries average not less than $300 a month. The cost of keep ing the jury alone will be at least $1,500 a month, most of which is for meals. Sheriff Hammel already has a sworn a barber as a deputy sheriff to care for the tonsorlal needs not only of the talesmen now under examination but for the future jury men. The deputy sheriff-barber has moved a hair into the room on the eighth floor of the hall of records where the talesmen at pres ent are confined. Veniremen Are Waiting. Continuation of the examining of talesmen in the trial of James B. Mc Namara, indicted for numerous fatali ties resulting from the explosion a year ago of the Times building here, was planned to follow the announcement today by Judge Walter Bordwell of his ruling as to the eligibility of Z. T. Nelin to act as a juror. Eleven other talesmen, locked in a room adjacent to the court chamber and 31 veniremen awaited the judge's ruling as a definite step forward in the trial. It now Is estimated that at least a month will elapse before a jury can be selected. Even then the trial is expected to go forward slowly as delays are predicted in the arrival here of witnesses from various parts of the country. Few were in the court room today owing to the street parade in which President Taft participated. Mrs. Nelson in Court. The first person in the court room early today was Mrs. Z. T. Nelson, wife of the talesman under examination. She sat in the empty chamber for an hour before court opened in the hope that she might get a glimpse of her i breakfast for a little ride in their big sightseeing automobile but before they had gotten very far the big truck stalled and after some difficulty re turned to the hall of records. "That bunch of talesmen is pretty heavy," said Deputy Sheriff Lupton, in charge of them today. "I have figured they weigh at least a ton and a half. We've got to'be care ful with the machine." Every effort is being made to give the talesmen sufficient outdoor air. Most of them are well on in years, some of them being over 70. They asked today if the elevator could not be kept running on Sunday as yester day they were compelled to climb nine flights of stairs to their room. District Attorney Fredericks and his assistants put on high hats and frock coats early today and went to meet the train on which President Taft ar rived. It was expected that couit would be delayed in opening owing to Taft ceremonies. Indications were that with the eligibility of Nelson disposed of the attorneys would proceed with a brief examination of another talesman today and then an adjournment wouid be taken until tomorrow. The section of the penal code, held forth by the defense as covering Nelson's case, as well as that of any other talesmen who may have read considerably on the case, declares that actual bias may be charged "for the existence of a state of mind on the part of the juror in refer ence to either of the parties which will prevent him from acting with entire impartiality and without prejudice to the substantial rights of either party" while the prosecution will continue to contend that another section expressly says: "No person shall be disqualified as a juror by reason of having formed or expressed opinion upon the matter or cause to be submitted to such juror, founded upon public rumor, statements We Invite You to inspect this property, to be sold on easy terms.

SOUTH AMERICA STARTING. Just On Point of Development, Says Sir. Clark.

He simply worshipped her on his knees. Now they are married and he scarcely treats her decently. And yet I'm sure that if she hadn't married him, he'd have gone on worshipping her forever. Isn't that enough to make a woman' cynical about marriage?" So one of my correspondents ques tions. No, that's not enough to make a wo man cynical about marriage at least, not this woman. Superior beings are rot always the easiest people in the world to live with. I'd really like to know the husband's side of this case. Perhaps he doesn't treat her unkind ly at all. I have a feeling, somehow, that the whole trouble is that he has gotten off his knees and she feels ag grieved at that change of attitude. I think that is one of the commonest causes of matrimonial discord In the first year of married life. The lover, having become the husband, gets off his knees, and the sweetheart, having become the wife, resents his doing so. And what would you have? Can a man with the livelihood to earn for himself and another, remain perpetually on his knees? Of course he can't. He's got to stand up on his two feet and hustle. And when he does that, he's doing it for her, as well as for himself. And yet, lives there a woman that doesn't feel at least a little bit aggrieved, when she sees her husband brush the dust off his trousers as it were and rise erect to kneel no more? The woman with common sense soon calls that common sense to her rescue and becomes resigned to the inevitable state of affairs. But the dreamer, the idealist to which class this "beautiful and su perior woman" doutbless belongs takes the change much harder. She not only feels, but acts much aggrieved. She puts on an injured air which prob ably vastly mystifies her husband. She often says. "You never used to do so-and-so." Whereupon the husband, who knows that he is doing what is logical and I rignt, wno loves his wife as much as, if not more, than his sweetheart, and who is totally incapable of understand ing the feminism of her attitude, nat urally feels Indignation, and, after pa tiently enduring the unpleasant atmos phere which she creates, finally rebels and gives her real reason to feel ag grieved. And there you are with a matrimonial rift wide and ready, to be wider at the slightest provocation. And all with no logical cause at all. The whole thing reminds me of the silly saying, "A man never runs for a car after he gets it," which I have often heard people quote in regard to marriage with most cynical emphasis. Of course, a man never runs for a car after he gets it. But would you want him to? What would you think of him if he did? Listen, brides and brides-to-be. When a man, in the change from lover to husband, does not lose his willingness to work for you, his respect, his cam araderie, and his tenderness towards you you may be pretty sure that, no matter what minor changes in his manner there are, you have no reason to feel aggrieved. Don't act abused because he has risen from his knees. Be glad that it is a iind, strong man who stands erect on his two feet before you, ready to take your hand in his and walk with you and guide you and make a pathway for you to the Journey's End.

STOCKS Pressure against U. S. Steel and Read ing depressed the entire active list and after small opening gains were lost the market remained heavy throughout the morning. The pressure against IT. S. Steel came largely from Pittsburg and other out of town points. Selling of the railway shares apparently was largely in the na ture of realizing on stocks accumulated at last week's lower level. Bonds were ir regular with American Tobacco issues heavy. Selling orders poured into the market when it became evident that Reading and U. S. Steel were not receiving effective special. Bears circulated unfavorable gos sip regarding the steel industry and there was considerable profit taking by the last week's buyers. Reading, U. S. Steel and St. Paul sold a point below Saturday's closing and most other active stocks a considerable fraction. Movements of stocks were slight at the opening of trading today. Changes were irregular with a majority of small ad vances. Southern Railway preferred gained a point, American Smelting and Erie first preferred and Lehigh Valley and Norfolk Western U. S. Steel opened with an advance of V. but quickly fell to under Saturday's close. After the opening transactions the whole mar ket shaded off.

Miss Marguerite Mills, who will be come the bride of Mr. William Mc pherson of Howell, Mich., AVednesday evening, October 25, was the charming guest of honor at a tea given this af ternoon by Mrs. S. S. Estey and Miss Helen Ksiey. There is, perhaps, a little more zest put into an entertainment for a bride whose marriage takes her away to a new home among strangers, than for the one who will continue to hold among her friends much the same place as a matron that she occu pied as a maid. Miss Mills, in the few years that she has been "out" (for she is still quite young), has become ex ceptionally popular, and her wedding is attracting a great deal of kindly in terest, and it is a matter of regret that phe goes to make her home elsewhere. The party at the Manse this afternoon was one of the pleasantest of the pre nuptlal affairs for the bride-elect, and the house was attractively decorated Jjj pink and white, pink roses being iVed in the dining room and library, ,nd white roses in the parlors. Mrs. Kstey and Miss Estey had the assist ance of the following friends: Mrs. "IV. R. Ptubbs, Mrs. George Crossman, Mrs. J. B. Larimer, Mrs. George Park hurst, Mrs. Eugene Quinton, Mrs. Wil lis Norton, Mrs. William Macferran, Mrs. H. O. Garvey, Mrs. Frank Bone brake, Mrs. Robert Garver, Miss Isabel lo Doubt about the Goodness of these at They've been wear tested, tried by scores of men who walk all day. You, Mr. Man!

There is all the difference in the world in the way people give a party, and it always seems that the people who make the least work of it have the best results. You have been to parties and have seen the hostess worried and anxious, greeting her guests with a far away stare in her eyes as though she would look through the fast closed door to see that everything was going right in the kitchen, and you are re minded of the fable of the mountain giving birth to the mouse. Tes? Well, then there is the other kind of hostess who has ever so many guests, proceeds with her arrangements without an ap pearance of any conscious effort, and stands to receive her friends as alert, smiling and care-free as any of her callers. That woman she's used to it, "to the manner born." All of which was brought to mind in thinking over the party Saturday at the Country club when Mrs. Norman Wear and her daughter; Miss Marian WTear, received several hundred guests at one of the prettiest parties of the season, includ ing the young girls of Miss Wear's set, matrons and elderly women. Mrs. Wear and her daughter were both dressed in white and it was frequently remarked during the afternoon that they looked more like sisters than mother and daughter, which doesn't imply in the least that Miss Marian appears cjer than she really is. Mrs. Wear's gown was embroidered voile, with silver balls edging the tunic and having a trimming of lace medallions on the bodice. She carried a large round bouquet of roses and lilies of the valley. Miss WTear's dress was white crepe, trimmed with Irish lace and embroidery on the yoke and sleeves. She carried an arm bouquet of red roses tied with red ribbon. On the east porch ices were served' by Miss Clyde Bonebrake, Miss Doro thy Porter and Miss Bertha Hull. An orchestra stationed on the porch played during the hours of the party. Autumn leaves were used to decorate the porch and the rooms as well. The dining table had for a center piece a tall round bank of yellow and white chrysanthemums, and grasses were gathered into bouquets for the differ ent rooms. A good showing of new dresses was out; for fickle October elected to smile for the party Saturday, so that it was warm enough for the light party gown and still cool enough for the new white suits. It is the uncertain time of year, when it is impossible to guess what milady will choose to wear. Among the fall suits was a particularly good looking one worn by Mrs. H. A. Auer bach. The skirt and jacket were trimmed in buttons and made in the broken lines so fashionable this year. Miss Harriet Jetmore, of New York, who was the guest of her grandmother, Mrs. A. B. Jetmore, was dressed in a white suit, having a smart and quite striking trimming of black and white on the cuffs and collar and around the bottom of the skirt. Her hat was black velvet with a wreath of gold leaves in the facing. Miss Helen Lou ise Crosby, who finished Bethany col lege last year, and who is now looked upon as one of the season's debutante favorites, wore a modish white suit, and with it a black beaver hat with an extreme droop and trimmed with a bow across the front. Mrs. J. C. Mc Clintock, who was one of the assisting women, wore a white voile, embroid ered on the skirt and bodice in a blue conventional design. Mrs. Chauncey Dewey, of Chicago, who is visiting her parents, Bishop and Mrs. F. R, Mills paugh, was one of the guests at the party, and she was gowned in a black satin suit, with a blouse of satin and chiffon. The Duplicate WTiist club will meet with Mrs. B. F. Akers Tuesday after noon at her home, 121S Fillmore street. Mrs. Akers entertained the D. D. Whist club this afternoon. A woman who has returned from a trip abroad tells how one of her trav eling companions was induced to give up, forever, a notion she had that she could speak French. In a Paris cafe, when the maid brought the dessert, the accomplished linguist turned to her with the command, "Bring me the cou teaux with the ivory handles." The maid stood mystified, not in the least comprehending what she wanted. The .ds If V i 1 1 V. '"V iJ -t- 1 V V rUt? Y woman, unable to make hersolf under stood, helplessly thumped the table, saying: "This awful French language I wish, I had never learned it." Pickens are selling the early hat they have In stock at a considerable discount, and wrlll continue to sell at reduced prices until they have their fall opening. Mrs. T. R.

E. Lux. A number of out-of-town guests will attend the wedding, and Miss Lux will be the guest of honor at some par ties that are being planned for her this week. A reception was given for the Good Government club by their friends Sat urday evening at the home of Mrs. Lei Monroe to rejoice over the suffrage vic tory In California, The evening was begun with the singing of the Battle Hymn of the Republic, sung after the old Methodist fashion of "lining" the hymn; Mrs. Monroe reading the verse, and the company singing it after her. Some short addresses were made, after which tea was poured. The company voted to send resolutions to the Los Angeles Times, as follows: "We hail with joy the new derrlocracy. Con gratulations to the women of California in their splendid campaign for equal suffrage. We wanted sixth place, but yield to and rejoice with you. What's the matter with California men? They are all right. (Signed) The Good Gov ernment Club." Mrs. Monroe and Mrfe. E. S. Marshall were asked to write let ters of thanks to the following men who have stood by the equal suffrag-j cause in Kansas: Senator Potts, Sen ator Frank Travis, Representative Beacy, Representative Kyle, and Rep resentative Deatch.

The ordinary symptoms of Scrofula are swollen glands about the neck, scalp diseases, skin affections, poor physical development, etc. S. S. S. has cured thousands of cases of Scrof ula. It is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and by going down into the circulation and removing the germs and poisons, and enriching the blood by the creation of nutritive corpuscles, S. S. S. makes a permanent cure. S. S. S. is a purely vegetable remedy, made entirely of health-giving roots, I herbs, and barks, and is perfectly safe jfor persons of any age, or those in. j delicate conditions of health. No one j need fear to give S. S. S. to a child, 1 following directions, and the health it iwill bring to frail, delicate children f will be a blessing to their parents. If you or your child have Scrofula, write for our book on the blood and ask for any medical advice. No charge for either. S. S. S. is sold at drug stores. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO.. Atlanta. Go.

Might Wed Xegro. Dr 1 1 li t Lidh. Favored U 1 an a I If li iMmim- M'" urn an .nil m Marion, Kan., Oct. 16. In Mario'i county, a fortune of $50,000 is waiting lor a claimant. One year has gone by and no relatives of James Iavis, of Peabody, who was killed by a fall Oc tober 30, 1910, have appeared. Some where on the other side of the ocean it is believed that heirs exist, and that they are probably in moderate circurr. etances. and would be delighted to fail into a fortune of $50,000. But the cus tomary efforts to find them have failed. In another two years, if no claimant appears, the money will go to the state of Kansas under the operation of the law. Considerable mystery surrounds both, the death of Davis and the non appearance of the heirs. "Jimpeey" Davis, as he was common ly called, after a pleasure trip to Kan sas City suddenly appeared in the vi cinity of his property in East Branch township, Marion county, northwest of Peabody, acting in an odd manner. He was adjudged insane and confined in a private institution at Atchison. He had been there but a few days when information was given out to the ef fect' that while out with a guard he attempted escape and was killed in falling and a funeral and burial was held at Peabody. In the Bank $10,000 The estate consists of 400 acres Df rich Marion county land valued at $100 per acre and $10,000 cash on deposit in a Peabody bank, inherited by Jimpsey" from his father, an eccentric English man, who died a natural death, six years asro. Since "Jimpsey," who was 40 years old at his death, was 15 years old the father and son had lived an eccentric, recluse life on the farm, allowing the (presence of no woman on the farm and working hard and following a frugal existence. He had but one serai confldant in the person of Hamilton Lowman, an invalid. To the latter he said that he would like to marry- but anyone who would marry him would not do so from motives of love, but to gain his property. He told Lowman that the only woman he would marry with a feeling of security who was not after his money was a negro girl of good family and good reputation. He often remarked to Lowman that, r; gardless of color, this girl would make an industrious man a good wife. Lives With Black Family. A negro family named Bush were tenants on the Davis farm and for weeks at a time Jimpsey made his home with them. Mrs. Bush is of the old southern type, and naturally she took an interest in Jimpsey, keeping his buttons sewed on and his clothes repaired. No woman had ever taken tn interest in JimpRey before and nat urally he wanted to confide in them. The Bush family knew "Jimpsey" Dav is probably better than anyone ir: the world. The senior Davis had often mentioned the existence of a sister, who came to this country rind married ,n what was then Washington territory, and of a son, a half-brother of Jimp sey," who went from England to Aus tralia. The elder Davis, who was 30 years old when he died, had kept up no communication with either and trace of them had been Tost. The adminis trator and the county officials have done what the law requires to locate an heir and because none has been found some people think there is n heir in existence. But to people who have made a study of the matter it seems exceeding strange that a lineage would become extinct in the deatii of James Davis and his son "Jimpsey They believe that there are heirs in existence and that newspaper publicity will bring them to light. Denied He Had Relatives. The Bush family, intelligent, honest colored people, are among those who believe so. Mrs. Bush said that when ever the sister of the elder Davis or the son who went to Australia were mentioned "Jimpsey" would deny tnat they ever exif.ted. This was subse quent to "Jimrsey's" visit to Kneland. Previous to that time Jimpsey always tried to change the subject and always alleged that they had both died before marrying. Mrs. Bush's theory is thst while in England "Jimpsey" learned of the existence of the relatives and feared that they could take a part of the property away from him. Others are of the same opinion. They believe that there are living descend ants somewhere on the other side of the ocean. James Davis. Sr., came to Marion county, Kan., from Cardiff, Wales, in 1874, a stonemason. HE FAVORS BIGGER PENSIONS. Taggart Declares in Favor of Dollar a Day for Veterans. Mound City. Kan., Oct. 16. Joseph Taggart of Kansas City, Kan., Demo cratic candidate for congress in the Second district, addressed a fair sized audience at the court house here. He advocated a dollar a day pension for old soldiers. J. D. Botkin also spoke. Mr. Taggart said he was here to de fend the reputation of his home town, Kansas City, Kan., from the attacks of insurgent papers, the editorials being furnished from the camp of his oppo nent, IT. S. Guyer. He said Kansas City, Kan., was the cleanest city in the TJnited States. He read an affidavit given by C. W. Trickett, assistant at torney general, to prove his assertion. He pledged that he would favor a re vision of the tariff downward to re lieve the people of trust iniquities without injuring legitimate industries. CRACKS ALL IX ALFALFA. "Fill In" in Farmers Haul Dirt to Fields. Sedan, Kan., Oct. 16. Within the last few weeks great cracks in the earth have appeared in three alfalfa fields along the Caney river in Chau tauqua county. They range from one to ten feet deep and from ten to 100 feet in length. The largest cracks are on the Casement farm, a mile west of Sedan, while the others, almost af equal size, are on the Severns and Kirchner farms, the former being at least eight miles from the Casement field, although along the same stream. No cracks are reported except in al falfa fields. What is considered a very istrange feature is that in every case th cracka run east and west, regard-1 enough and almost level enough to lay October seldom sees a sale of such desirable Dress Fabrics as these, priced in some cases Only HALF what the goods are actually worth at retail Butterick Patterns 10c and 15c D ress 1 riinmings At Greatly Red uced Prices Fancy Braids, in black and colors; Ap pliques, in black and colors; Braided Net Bands and Bead Thimmings short lengths and broken bolts, at prices that average about HALF. $1.00 a yard buys trimmings that were $2.00 and $2.50. 50 a yard buys trimmings that did bring up to $1.50. 25 a yard buys trimmings that sold at 50c and 75c. 15 a yard buys trimmings that were 25c to 40c.

Oct. 16.- Work began here this week on the rebuilding of what is known as the only state road in Chautauqua county. It is a part of the old road used by early day stages coaches between Independence and Arkansas City. It extends clear across Chautauqua county, entering the coun ty at old Brownsville on the east side and leavin- it at Cedarvale in the edge of the flint hills on the west side. The county is divided into three dis tricts and a commissioner is giving his personal attention to the rebuilding of the road in each district. This gives two of the commissioners a stretch of about six miles each and the other commissioner twelve miles. Each one has appointed a good foreman, but each is nevertheless staying right on the Job to see that the county gets the full value of its money. The road is not in very bad shape except in spots, but when the work Is finished the com missioners sav it will be smooth a trolley line on if it were desired. The hills are being cut down and the dirt hauled into the bottoms so there will be no steep grades anywhere in the en tire thirty miles. Road building is a difficult task in this county on account of the hills, but the rocks are being turned into macadam wherever possi ble and the new road work will see a complete elimination of wooden and steel bridges, these being replaced by stone and concrete bridges and culverts.
