Mrs. McCarter, was surprised when she read the first edition of tooay a State Journal, to' learn 'hat her name had been pro posed .o-one- hai intimated to her that there was a move on foot to make her a cadidate. President Henry J. Waters is ag gressive, and is popular among the educators of the state. The choice is a happy one. His name was men tioned last year by his friends who wished to have him head the organiza tion. One member only of the nominating committee voted against President Waters, but not for personal reasons He was of the opinion that it was about time that a woman was at the head of the association and he has backed Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter Lee Harrison, superintendent of the Sumner county schools, was talked of as a possible candidate by his friends Teachers were still registering this morning and the meeting of teachers J is adjudged the most successful affair I of the kind ever held by the associa tion. Pleased With Toiiekn. The teachers are decidedly pleased with the manner in which they have been entertained in Topeka; that is Superintendent K. T. Kail-child, Who Addressed the Tcaclicrs This Morn- the majority of them. A bunch of Wichita school ma'ams came to the capital city with the intention of cap turing the next meeting of the Kansas Slate Teachers' association for the "Peerless Princess," and they have been the only knockers on the treat ment received at the hands of To pekans. When asked by a reporter what he has beer, hearing while talking with viriting teachers relative to their atti tude towards the manner in which they have been treated, Prof, J. W. Searson. head of the publicity bureau, said: "Good nature seemed to abound everywhere. The cafes, restaurants, rooming houses and even on the streets is Head State Teachers' Association. have been found the festive .school ma'ams. "Many of the teachers spoke of the large signs. 'Welcome to Our CUy,' and many were the favorable com ments upon the fine decorations of places of business, window decorators seemed to have done their best and flags in profusion decked Kansas ave nue and everywhere wras breathed forth a spirit of welcome. Hotels and cafes were obliged to employ extra forces of waiters to accommodate the crowds and it was a matter of general remark that none were inconvenienced to any great degree. "Chairman E. F. Stanley of the lo cal committee. Treasurer Landson and his effective corps of assistants and Stte Superintendent Fairchild and his office force all united to do their best to make it easy for the teachers to se cure, proper accommodations and to find their way about the city. In in tervals of the program many of the teachers visited Washburn college, the state capitol, the state asylum, the state reformatory and other places of interest. On the whole, the feeling seems to be that Topeka is doing the right thing by the teachers and many have expressed the wish that the asso ciation he located here permanently." This Morning's Session.

Itetrtat of Imperial Family From Peking Is Cut Off. Hong Kong, Nov. 10. Chang Ming Chi, viceroy at Canton, who arrived here last night on board a Eritish war ship, issued a statement to the foreign consuls today making formal procla mations of the independence of Can ton and Kwang-Tung province. He declared he is authorized by the peo ple to make the proclamation. He says that under the new- regime the provincial assembly will act in a.n ex ecutive capacity in addition to its leg islative functions. All relations with foreign powers will continue in statu quo, but will be conducted from Canton by the pro vincial government, instead of through Peking. British sailors with four rapid fire guns are guarding the foreign quarter at Canton. The revolutionists have as sumed control of Admiral Li Chun's headquarters and have hoisted the re publican flag over the admiral's of fice. Ainoy Without a Head. Amoy, China, Nov. 10. This city is without a ruler today. Tao Tai Chang has laid down the reins of govern ment and none of his subordinates ap pears willing to take them up. Chang today refused to receive official dis patches, declaring that he was no long er in charge. Tung Gan, chief magis trate of the district, has abandoned his court and fled from the city. The night was one of anxiety. All the street gates were closed and the citizens remained w-ithin doors. There were repeated attempts to fire the city, but all were frustrated. Shipping is at the mercy of the pirates, who are carrying affairs with a high hand. Junks are afraid to venture far from their anchorages. The American cruiser Albany re turned to Shanghai last night. The British gunboat Rosario anchored in the harbor this morning. At Fuchow, which yesterday was occupied by revo lutionists, fighting continued with heavy losses on both sides. Last night a number of Manchus, fjeeing from Fu Chow, tried to burn one of the suburbs. They were caught by a de tachment of rebels and summarily exe cuted. Between sunset last night and an early hour today, the Fu Chow rev olutionists captured and put to death forty incendiaries. Retreat Is Cut Off. Peking, Nov. 10. This city was still quiet today, the only important devel opment this morning was the abandon ment of the Pckirg-Kalgin railway by its staff thus cutting off the retreat of the imperial family by this route. The railroad officials have abandoned their posts. Grows More Serious. London. Nov. 10.

Confi dence that only victory can result for Kansas in the football game with Oklahoma university on McCook field h re tomorrow was strong in the Kan sas squad today. The week of hard practice and hammering tactics administered by Coach Sherwin since last Saturday's game with Washburn is said by foot ball followers to have made the team just about twice as effective as last week. Two new lights shone in the line this" week. Davidson, the HIO pound guard, Is playing at great game, and, for one of his weight, has shown great speed. Bramwell, a big recruit from the freshmen of last year, has been given a permanent place as right guard. No fear of the undefeated Oklahomans was expressed by players or coaches today.

Prof. Jackson's Disappearance Thus Explained in Wichita. Sterling Teacher Seen With Girl During Friends' Search. IIE WAS AT AUGUSTA. Reported to Have Been There After Disappearance. Told Friends He WTould Never Again Be Heard From. Wichita, Kan., Nov. 10. Prof. Ralph Jackson of Sterling, Kan., is still alive, according to a story pub lished here. Not only that, but it is declared he has left the city forever because of trouble in which a girl from Enid, Ok., figures. The story was made public by the woman pro prietor of a retreat to which the girl was taken. According to the woman, Jackson and the girl appeared at the home two days after he dropped out of his friends' sight. He communicated with the girl daily by telephone and called on her the Friday following his dis appearance. Following their last tele phone conversation the girl was angry because her "friend" did not come out to seo her and wept bitterly. On the day he called at the home. Jackson, if it were he, said that he was going away and W ould never be heard from again. He told the girl goodby, saying that she knew what to do with herself. He paid for the girl's treat ment and had $50 or $60 left. The woman who cared for the girl is posi tive in her identification of Jackson from photographs. The woman's story is that Jackson went to Augusta and remained there most of the time the girl was in the retreat. A newspaper dispatch from Augusta reported his being seen there shortly after the disappearance. STORM FLAGS UP. Cold Wave Is Moving Eastward Along Northern Border. Washington, Nov. 10.

Long and Short Haul an Issue in the Case. Washington, Nov. 10. A thorough Judicial inquiry into the constitutional ity of the long and short haul pro vision of the present interstate com merce act will be the result, it is ex pected today, of the issuance yester day by the commerce court of tem porary injunctions in the Pacific coast freight rate cases. The orders of the court were re ceived by the Interstate commerce commission with expressions of sur prise. In the Judgment of the com mission the reductions in transcon tinental freight rates made by its or ders not only were entirely reasonable but conservative. Full recognition, it is pointed out, was given to the effort of the ocean competition on the Pa cific coast with transcontinental rail rates; but it was maintained by the commission that inter-Rocky moun tain cities like Spokane. Reno. Salt Lake City and Phoenix were entitled to more favorable rates on westbound traffic originating in the east. The question of the constitutionality of the fourth section of the interstate commerce act the long and short haul provision it is realized by all In interest, will have to be fought out in the highest court. In their argu ment before the commerce court in support of the temporary injunction attorneys for the transcontinental lines dwelt particularly on that phase of the case. FOOTBALL TOMORROW The teachers are staying over in a body for the football game between Washburn and State Normal.

Humphreys of the Na tional hotel has decided to give the patrons of his cafe music during the dinner hour on Sunday evenings in fu ture. Mr. Humphreys is proprietor of both the National and Glenwood hotels and deserves great encouragement for the fine hotel service he is now giv ing Topeka. He has made the prices popular at his excellent cafe. The charges are surprisingly low for the first class hotel the National is. The dining room is enjoying a fine patronage and with good music the Sunday evening meals will be more popular than ever. To peka should be proud of the New National. UP TO STUDCS.

Thomas left this afternoon for Kansas City where he Joins Speak er Champ Clark this evening and viM accompany him to Dodge Citv whom the speaker is to address the con gressional convention or the "Klg Seventh" district. Mr. Thomas re marked to a State Journal repor.er: "Looks as though Governor Stubbs Is going to call an extra session of the legislature to pass a presidential pri mary law; the Kansas Citv star I. favoring it and Its relation to the gov ernor is close. In my humble estima tion this calling of the extra session of the legislature. Is a prettv rlskv nr'.nn- eition for Mr. Stubbs. He better can in my good Democratic friend and his private secretary nnd thev better think a great big think before h calls it. Now- as I view the sltiiallon. Stubbs has got Curtis houelesslv best as the thing now stands nnd you know there Is an old proverb that says, 'Let well enough alone." 'Of course the governor and Hris tow nnd all of their Insurgent follow ers are determined to bpat Mr. Taft out of the Kansas delegation t tho national convention If they can, 1n wnicn event they would aid Mr. Iji Follette in his fiKht on Tuft but It must be remembered that this extra session of the legislature is going- to cost the taxpayers of this sLate from $50,000 to $100,000 directly or Indi rectly, and every man. woman nnd child knows that the callng of th leg islature together Is done for no othr purpose than to further personal po litical interests and the money tht It will cost Is practically a campaign fund and that patient bss, the tax payer, may arise ln his wrath nnd ak why the taxpayers should contribute that amount of money to aid Mr. Stuhbs in a campaign having for Ita object the advancing of the interests of Republican insurgency. "I know there are tens of tbourtandu of Democrats in this state that obJct to being taxed for the benefit of our good governor's campaign fund. Of course, if the governor and his insur gent friends want to foot the bill, why that would be all right, but to make the good people pay the bid is a very dangerous proceeding on the part -of the governor. The governor should re member that occasionally people get to 'voting which ever way they plea and notwithstanding that he personal ly and vigorously campaigned ln hi own congressional district a few days ago he not only lost the district, but he lost his own county (Douglas) and I am told his own precinct, which ought to be a gentle reminder that wnile he has got Curtis 'faded' ho bet ter not take on the LaFolIette fight, as something might develop that would require his entire strength In bis own behalf.

Of course, these experiments in will ac tion to test resitting power will bi given in scientific graduation and un ier mreful surveillance. "If any should think the idea of ethical clinics a fanciful one, I beg to sav that the University of Pennsyl vania is already doing a similar work in psychology and has been for ten years, with the happiest results. Prob lems almost as specific and definite as those in arithmetic are propounded and worked out; these contain lessens in self abnegation, in sacrifice, in re straint from some indulgence, proper, perhaps, in iteslf, but refused for the self control value. "The ordinarv training for a gen tleman is usually sufficient to guard against the secondary impulses, -such as lying, stealing and swearing; but not against social Impurity, dishonest trading and unfair advantage. The chair of conduct will build the weak places and the recitation mark will be on the deed, rather than the'screed.

When the chair of conduct becomes a reality and rot, as its suggestion now seems, a joke, men will no longer be compelled to say: 'I see the good and I approve it, too, 'I condemn the wrong and still the wrong pursue.' Tr. Kendall's Scliolarly Lecture. "There are three factors in judging school efficiency and these are: The school building or the plant, the or ganization, the course of study, the teachers, school supervision, the school board, and the attitude of the public." This wa.s the statement of Dr. Calvin Kendall, commissioner of education, state of New Jersey, who is one of the highest salaried educators in the country, in speaking at the Auditorium Thursday night. "The school building or plant should te attractive, because it is the second home of the children. Very few coun try schools are as attractive as they should be at least in the state from which I came and I suppose the same condition exists here. There should be shrubs and flowers in abundance. The school grounds should constitute R veritable spot of beauty as an ex ample to the people of the community. 'i Si i' V Ir. Benjamin I.. D'Ooge of Michigan, Speaker Before Latin Round Table. "In the city no school site is too large end most of them are too small. It is poor economy not to give the children the best l l ting, heating, and seating facilities. If the children's feet dangle In the air it is a travesty on school hygiene. "In one state of the Union all the mentally defective child-en must U put In schools l y themselves Teachers can do more for the children of normal ability if these children are withdrawn. The particularly able child should he placed Tn a school where he can go along at his maximum capacity. "In my judgment no teacher ought to be called upon to teach more than 45 Children, and if it is so much the better. If the teacher is called upon to teach 56 or more pupils some of the hildren are sure to he neglected. "Some pupils, especially some in the high school, need perspiration as well as Inspiration (laughter.) Promotion should be based upon what a pupil can do and not on what work he has covered. "Because of our changing Industrial and social conditions, changes are forced upon the courses in the schools. Every teacher knows the courses of study have expanded. The text book in United States history Is thicker. One small boy said he was oriposed to war because it made more history and he had quite enough his tory to study already. "I think there is a danger thr.t the schools will be called on to do more than the pupils can accomplish. Tn this day of numerous books and periodi cals, is it not "he duty of every teach er in the grades to train the pupil to use books. "What about the teachers? There are more teachers In the public schools tux more than ever before in proportion r 4 m to our population. This means that tin Qualification, stall, and character of the teachers is of paramount Import ance. Twenty jears ago we find one teacher to 520 pieople in New Jersey; In 1910 one to e very 210 people in the state." Pipe Organ Recital Pleases. Through the courtesy of the Com mercial club, a pdpe organ recital was given immediately after the conclu sion of this address. Hundreds of sjchool teachers heard for the first tim e the big pipe organ. the greatest in thte west, and they were delighted, showi ng their appreciation of the music by their vigorous ap plause. The selection tShat made the biggest "hit" was "Evensong" by Edward F. Johnston. It bi-ought into play the chimes and it -was delightfully light and airy. There were 4,590 teachers in attend ance at the meeting, and this was probably the largest gathering of the kind in the histcrry of the association. Mr. Kairchiltl's Address. "This is the dawn of a new day in educational affa Its in this state," de clared Superintendent E. T. Kairchild, in the course of. an address on "What Next?" delivered at the general ses sion this morning. The next five years are to be the richest in achievement that Kansas ha,s seen. "There is to le a greater enrollment; more purils are to complete the work of the grades; a much larger per cent of the high s-jhool pupils will graduate, and our state Institutions and colleges will be taxed as never before to care for their ever increasing enrollment. "A gradual cut real change is tak ing rlace in our conception of high school courses of sud. Nothing rev olutionary, or destructive, of the good is contemplared but, rather, more op portunity is to be afforded the masses. "There arc many problems vet to be solved. The state must maintain In still more generous measure our state institutions of nigher learning.'.' Dr. Henry C. Culbertson, College of Emporia, declared that fraternities have more to do with creating snob bishness than any other factor in col lege life. Professor R. L. Short of Cleveland, O., Matliematlcs Speaker. Prof. P. G. Holden of Iowa college made a "hit" tn speaking of educa tional matters, especially relating to boys. The famous colored chorus, com posed of 35 voices from Kansas City, Kan., was heard and the music appre ciated. Claience Eddy again delighted the teachers with a selection on the pipe organ. The auditing committee for the en suing year will be composed of the following school men: John F. Eby, Topeka; D. A. Hemphill, Norton; C. A. Deardorff, Burlmgame.

State Senator Brady, of Lawrence, one of the candidates for congress from the Second district who withdrew when the Ouyer committee "spiked" the nomination, went ahead, under pressure, and made Guyer speeches in the campaign. But Senator Brady's heart was troubled and his Bpirit vexed him sore. He is editor of the Journal World and he expresses himself on loss of his congressional district to the Dem ocrats in the following plain language: "The inevitable happened and the Republican party has gone down in humiliating and deserved defeat be cause it betrayed the people. In its modt detestable days Tammany Hall never did anything so degrading as the Republican nomination was made in the Second district. "As a matter of fact it was no party nomination and to call it such would have been ludicrous except for the po litical tragedy it brought on. A year ago the Republican nominee was elect ed by 3.500. "Yesterday the same party was de feated by over 1,000. "Why this revulsion of fee-lintr? "Simply and solely because the nom ination was stolen. There was not a fair-minded Republican in the district who believed that CJuver wunld be elect ed, and practically every vote he polled was cast under solemn arid earnest protest. Under the circumstances Mr. Ouyer made a remarkable race and the vote he received indicates that there are still several thousand Republicans in the district who are loyal to the party no matter how much it sins. "The Journal-World pointed out time and time again just what would happen. It Implored the party leaders to interfere and save the district to the Republicans. They stood by and saw the men get away with the nomi nation and tnen wonaerea wny uie Icng Republicans bitterly resented the theft. "The campaign was a funeral march from the nomination to the ballot box. "In the history of politics there has never been such infamy as this and never has such righteous judgment been visited upon erring men. "The Journal-World is proud of the fact that from the very beginning it raised its voice in protest against this rape of the party and it feels vindicat ed in every word it has said. "So far as the progressive movement is concerned, it is only checked tem porarily. The righteousness of the movement appeals to the sovereign people and they will take care of it w-hile smiting the hand that has de based and degraded the Republican party. "It is going to take a mighty effort to hold the state of Kansas in line next year and the damnation of Guyer Is notice that the Republicans of Kan sas must have clean hands and pure hearts if they get back into the confi dence of the people." ADOPTS U. S. PLAN. (Continued from Preceding Page.) The students have been left without funds owing to the cessation of remit tances from Peking. Yesterday the students began looking for Minister Wang. Whan they found that he had decamped they took pofsession of the legation and have been in undisputed charge there ever since. Minister Wang formerly was secre tary of the Chinese legation at Wash ington, leaving that post in 1905 to become Chinese minister to Great Brit ain. He was not pleased with his Lon don post and within a year suggested his recall on the ground of his lack of English. He was appointed minister Japan a year and a naif ago. The revolutionary successes in utiina arouse great enthusiasm among the Chinese here.

A round table conference on the situation by men who stand out most prominently tt the pre.-ent moment is the govern ment's latest card. Believing that Yuan-Shi-Kai will arrive at the canital soon thev have summon ed Hsi-Liang. the former viceroy of Manchuria, to meet him and are stren uously endeavoring to persuade General Ch.mer-Sha-j-Tsen. commander of the army division at Lanohau, to jcin the conclave. The 'iovtrn.'tient frankly hails uin- Shi-Kai as its final ounpo-t and hopes lie w ill hu able to enlist the co-opera.- tion of General Cnarg and other dis affected generals in North China. Gen. Tuan has recovered complex control of the Phean railway so that the road is open for General Chang's journey. The sudden activity of the throne has lightened the hearts of some of the legations but the most of them re main pessimistic pointing out that un til Yuan-Shi-Kai arrives and definitely declares himself the situation will not be changed. The latest consular rer'rts state that the tartar general and the alanch'J troops at Narking aie still holding out against the rebels ard that a big bat tle is pending. Amor is reported more peaceful. Pressing Hard on Purple Hill. San Francisco, Nov. 10. A dispatch from Shanghai, received by the China Free Press here today, says the revo lutionary forces have invaded all the suburbs of Nanking and are pressing hard on Purple Hill, where the im perial troops are entrenched. The besieging army is expecting large reinforcements, says the message, two brigades having been recruited at Fu Chow, Hang Chow and Shanghai. Another cablegram from Hong Kong says the revolutionists are assembling troops which they are preparing to rush to Nanking and Wu Chang.

(I TROUGH" IS DEFINED. Lorimer Witness Says Xt Meant the Bar at Springfield. Chicago, Nov. 10. What was meant by the "trough" in Springfield at the time of the election of United States Senator Wm. Lorimer in May, 1909, was explained before the senate inves tigating committee today by John H. De Wolf a Democrat state representa tive who voted for Lorimer. De Wolf w-as questioned concerning a statement in the testimony of Representative Charles A. White, confessed bribe tak er, that the day before the election of Lorimer De Wolf asked White whether the latter had been "up to the trough." "I never referred to the 'trough' ex cept to mean the bar. In Springfield, the 'trough' always means the bar," said De Wolf. Questioned again about his purchase of a 63-acre farm at a price of $4,600 several months after Senator Lorimer's election, De Wolf declared he was still unable to say exactly in what denomi nation were the bills with which he made a payment of $300. MAKING HARD FIGHT WaKeeney Determined to Have Asy lum In Western Location. WaKeeney La making a hard fight for the new state hospital. A delegation from that live western town made a third trip to Topeka this week to lay the town's claims before the state board of control. This delegation left for home today feeling that their town had a better chance now for the ver dict than it has had before. J. F. Joj es. Chas. Steinberger, Dr. A. B. Jones, I. E. Pureed and W. W. Gibson compos ed the delegation and the town was ably represented. In their arguments before the board the delegation presented the claims i.hat Wa-Keeney had made the lowest price on land for the institution when it offered 5100 alfalfa land for $25 an acre with the choice of three section. good drainage, plenty of water, fertile soil, etc. Then again they swept away the freight rate proposition by offering to prove that WaKeeney had as good freight rates as any town in the com petition. They claim the most central location of that part of the state lying west of the 98th meridian. They were representing western Kansas in this competition and were fighting for that secrion. They opposed the plan of lo cating the hospital in the central part of the state. It is expected that the board will end the long suspense and select a site this week. 'RICES ARE HIGHER. Farmers Store Than Compensated for Shortage In Crops. Washington, Nov. 10. The decreas ed production in crops this year as compared with last year is being com pensated to the farmer of the country by the larger prices they are receiving, as shown by figures given out by the department of agriculture. The ag gregate production of crops in 1911, it is estimated, is approximately 7.9 per cent less than the crops of 1910 and about four-tenths of one per cent less than the average production for the preceding five years. Corn was worth 12.1 cents more per bushel on November 1 than on the same date last year; wheat one cent; oats 8.9 cents; barley 29.6 cents; rye 11.5 cents; buckwheat 7.1 cents and potatoes 20.6 cents, while the value of hay was $2.66 a ton greater. Flax seed, the only grain in which an in crease was not reported this year, is 19 cents cheaper this year than last. "The production of other crops in 1911," says the report, "expressed in percentage of the average production in recent years (not compared with full crop) is estimated as follows: Al falfa, 96.1; kaffir corn, 95.0; cranber- "s: 8, V. h 6g 1 clover seed, 82.6; millet emp, 78.2; clover hay Yield per acre compared with aver age yield: Broom corn, 85.1.

Today's elec tion developments made it certain that the Republicans will control the legi lature absolutely, the state senate by a two-thirds majority. The Democrats and progressive Re publicans together have only one- third of state senate and only twenty votes out of forty-eight in the house Several contests are already spoken of which the legislature, being judge of its own members, will decide and which may also give the house to the Republicans by two-thirds majority. But aside from that, the election of two regulars from among the Repub licans to the United States senate is assured. The returns also show today that the Democrat candidate for lieutenant governor, E. C. Debaca, received a slight majority, while the majority for W. C. McDonald, Democrat candidate for governor, according to latest ad vices, is two thousand. The rest of the state ticket is in doubt. REPRIEVED bTtAFT. Nearess Is Saved From Execution for 90 Days.

STOCKS The decision of the commerce court pro posing a reduction in freight rates strengthened the railroad stocks today. There was heavy buying of the western railroad stocks which made the best gains. The initial trading in Union Pacific con sisted of a lot of 8,000 shares at an ad vance of a point. St. Paul gained 2; Chi cago, Great Western preferred 1, North ern Pacific 1, Great Northern preferred 1V4 and Southern Pacific and Pensylvanla 1. Trading in the industrials was less ac tive, except in the case of United States Steel and changes were small and Irreg ular. United States Steel opened with th sale of 17,000 shares at practically the same price as ai tne ciose yesteraay. American Tobacco preferred gained Speculators hammered the market yes terday thereby aided by talk of congested facilities at Buffalo. Large export clear ances and cash wheat and flour sales, however, led to a rally. The close was strong with December at 9414c, a net loss 01 c. The market closed irregular. Bull oz- erators made a final demonstration in the closing hour and marked up prices to the nignest level or the day. Trading was on a large scale ana various stocks were lift ed substantially. These embraced the Copper group, some of the grangers and a few of the low priced industrials. The coal stocks established considerable high er prices. Central of New Jersey sold at 307 compared with its previous price of 280. Reading mounted to 153 and United States Steel to 65. Union Pacific and the Hill stocks were purchased in round lots. Wall St., New York, Nov. 10. STOCKS Stocks accumulated from the recent ad vance were sold In large numbers today; for a time the market was able to with stand th effect of the selling, owing to the counter influence of the commerce court's action in the freight rate case but beiore the day was far advanced prices began to weaken and the list becam fever ish. Anonuncement of a stock exchange fall ure and severe liquidation in some of the gold stocks on unfavorable rumors pre cipitated heavy selling for both accounts in the second hour. Only a few Issues, Lehigh Valley and St. Paul, held above yesterday's closing point, the remainder selling from a fraction to 3 points below Wabaidi preferred, slumped 3 points, the 4 per cent bonds 2, Missouri Pacific 1, American Smelting. Brooklyn Transit, Consolidated Gas, Canadian Pacific, Del aware nd Hudson, Erie the first preferred a point. Lackawanna was up 10 points and American Cotton Oil preferred 6 and American Woolen down 3. The decline culminated when Lehigh Valley was lifted 1 but the response elsewhere was feble and the market sank back again. T-tonds were irregular. Secondary prices were lower, the market reacting sharply under a flood of profit taking sales. St. Paul fell back 1 and other active issues from half a point to a point. The Hill group. Reading, Steel, Copper and Lehigh Valley, led a rally In which those stocks rebounded to a new high level; but there was continuous sell ing in other quarters which kept the mar ket feverish. Missouri Pacific, Wabash preferred, American Cotton OH, American Smelting and international Harvster were forced fractionally below yesterday's clos ing. At 11 o'clock the whole market was on the downward grade. Union Pacific, Reading and United States Steel were rul ing a trifle below last night and some oth er leaders were on a parity. An increase of about 80,000 tons over last month in the unfilled orders of the United States Steel corporation was with out influence. The general market later on responded to the rapid bidding up of Leihigh Valley which sold 3 points beyond yesterday's closing, touching 17674- Read ing rallied from 149 to 15H4, and there were recoveries of a point from the low est in Union Pacific, United States Steel and American Smelting. Unusu.'lly heavy buying of Lehigh Val ley whii sold at 179 against 17474, yes terday's closing, was attended by rumors of a large extra dividend. This was de nied by Philadelphia interests; the general market did not follow up the rise in Le high Valley but began to sell off in spots. New York Monet Marke. New Y'ork, Nov. 10.

The Washburn football squad indulg ed m their final scrimmage before the Norma game Thursday night, a mix ture of varsity and second team men forming the two teams. Most of the work was devoted to punting and run ning down the field and blocking by enos. At this work a noticeable im provement was shown. After the scrimmage work, the team was assembled which probably will meet the Normals. Contrary to the week's indications, Ends Lowe and Mc Intyre likely will remain in their places. Chamberlain, Tucker, Bowman, Pan kin. Bishop and others who tried to tetter the end positions have failed to show form and their working at the places has deprived the old ends of much needed practice in those posi tions. Same as Against Kansas. The back field positit p are expected to be filled by Smiley, D. Rogers, Tom linson and Capt. Burkhart as against Kansas. Bishop Mrlntosh and Titus will hold the tackle jobs and Jnhn.,n, N. Rogers and Painter the guards. Palmer and Eirrett are still passing the ball- Bishop is punting the ball again like he did last week in practice. His dis mal failure in the Kansas game is hoped not to be repeated in another game, but his experience in punting under pressure is limited. He neglects to take enough distance back of the scrimmage line and takes too much time to kick. This enables the oppos ing line men to charge him after be ing momentarily held by his own line. The practice was secret last night, but sight-seeing teachers continued to wander out to the park and walk onto the field. The gates were not locked and the manager was busy keeping the Normal backers off the grass. The Normal team, which Washburn hopes to defeat before an audience of several thousand teachers Saturday, is as strong a team, perhaps, as the Nor mal has had in many years. The team had two hard games this season and shows class. It defeated the Aggies 3 to 0 by kicking a field goal and was beaten by Fairmount 9 to 5, a field goal and a goal from touchdown turn ing the decision. The Teachers will be very much at home here because they will undoubt edly be better supported by rooters than will the Blue. The Normal dope sheet is far superior to that of "Wash burn, but Driver and his gang are con fident of upsetting it. While Nebraska eases over this week with playing Doane college, Kan fas, who is worrying over the Corn nusker game a week hence, must try to hold the powerful machine of Benny Owen from Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Sooners, since beat ing Missouri decisively last Saturday, have remained in Columbia and nave been working out with the Tigers in preparation lor the. Kansas game. It is doubtful if they will be able to play as good a game as at Missouri for the reason that a week away from the home camp serves usually to cause a lack of training by the players and a poorer condition. The college dopesters at Lawrence are sending out dope this week to the effect that Coach Sherwin had only now begun to teach his men team work. Heretofore, they were left to go as they chose, together if they de-f-ired or either direction. Now he will send his men against the Sooners with eleven men as one. Thus It is believed Kansas will win. Kansas Will Be Better. Undoubtedly Kansas will play a bet ter game than a week ago when they were surprised by the Washburn team. As a matter of tact neither team was playing at its best that day and the game showed pretty weak football all around. At the same time Oklahoma is not expected to play the same qual ity of ball as a week ago and K. U. certainly has a good chance. The men, however, may be crippled -for the Ne braska game a week later. Missouri. Kansas' last rival for the season, will play Washington univer sity at St- Louis. The Kansas Aggies will entertain an out of the state aggregation in the Creighton team which comes to Man hattan. Creighton has not shown to be strong and since Sthe Aggies have developed a better use of their beef, the game is expected to be a light one for the farmers. A great intersectional game will be the clash of Michigan and Cornell at Ithaca. Yost is afraid of the Cornell f-nds and has reason to be. While Michigan has not been defeated.

Aggies and Oklahoma May Get Places Next Year. Western Magnates Admit 'liiat juany Changes Are Desired. Chicago, Nov. 10. An outlaw league that will fight organized baseball on the Pacific coast may be formed by Cy Moreing of Stockton, Cal., according to J. Cal Ewing, president of the San Francisco team, and Al Baum, newly elected chief excutive of the Pacific Coast league. They are going to Cin cinnati where they will be given a hearing by the National commission. Thev held a conference with President Murphv of the Chicago National league "club, at which the possibility of outlaw baseball on the Pacific coast next year was discussed. The case of Orval Overall, the former Chicago pitcher, who it is said wants to play in San Francisco next season, was con sidered at the meeting but no action was taken. URGES NEW SCHEDULE PLAN. Johnson Would Have Both Leagues in Meeting. Chicago. Nov. 10. The time of framing the playing schedules of the two major leagues will be changed, if a proposition advanced by President B. B. Johnson of the American league meets the approval of the other mag nates. Instead of holding separate schedule meetings in February, the Nationals in New York and t?e Americans In Chi cago Johnson proposes that the mat ter be cleared up at the annual fall meetings of the two leagues in New York early in December. tt- Ki'iavoc tViat manv conflicting ric L'rui.' da?es and other obiectionable features can be avoided, if the representatives of the two leagties meet at that lime and adopt the schedules. SALTNA HIGH SCHOOL WIN'S. Clay County High Schedule Hardest in Years. Clay Center. Kan., Nov. 10. The Sa'.ina high school football team de feated the Clav county high school team bv the score of 9 to 5. It was a hotlv contested game throughout. The Clay county schedule this year nas been a very hard one. with a number of hard games yet to play. MOKE AGGIE BEAR STORIES. Hospital List Causes Gloom in K. S. A. C. Camp. Manhattan. Kan.. Nov. 10. With its hospital list daily growing larger, there was gloom today in the camp of the Kansas State Agricultural college foot ball sauad. Ralph Loughlin. the huskv tackle, was unable to appear for I ractice because of a dislocated shoul der, received at scrimmage. Three other men are laid up with bad knees and sprained ankles. Prospects for Saturday's game with Creighton col lege of Omaha looked gloomy. DIXIE KID WHIPS SUM3IERS. Negro AYinner in Second Round of Twenty Round Go. Liverpool. Nov. 10. The "Dixie Kid," the negro welterweight. Thursday night knocked out Johnny Summers, the Brit ish fighter, in the second round of a ceheduled 20-round contest for the wel terweight championship of tis wcrli Kansas City, Nov. 10. The Missouri valley conference is beginning to show feigns of disintegration and it is prob able that there will be a reorganization of the association at the meeting held on Thanksgiving day and probably some changes in the personnel of the component colleges. Dr. Clark W. Hetherington of Mis souri was the leading spirit in the or ganization of the conference, but since his departure to larger fields of useful ness the conference has been without leaders, spiritual or otherwise. Con sequently many little jealousies have crept in and one school. Iowa univer sity, has crept entirely out of the league. Nebraska also wants to creep out, since she has been hammering at the doors of the Big Eight to gain ad mission to that august body for sev eral years. Her splendid showing in football tihs year and the reported "cleanup" of her athletics will make it hard for the Big Eight to keep her on the outside very long. Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska are the Big Three in the valley conference and will probably form the nucleus of whatever reorganization may be brought about this year. K. S. A. C. May Get In. Three schools which will probably become members of the valley confer ence within the year have been deserv ing of the honor for several seasons. These schools are St. Louis university, Oklahoma university and the Kansas Agricultural college of Manhattan, Kansas. All three of these schools, particu larly Oklahoma, have adhered to de cent eligibility rules for a year or two In the past and promise to be stricter in the future, whether admitted to the conference or not. All play a brand of football on a par with that played by Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri and their baseball teams are of the same class. Would Be Stronger. Missouri plays Oklahoma and St. Louis anyway and Kansas plays Okla home and the Aggies every year, so that the admission of the schools would not change schedules greatly. The conference itself would be greatly streneethend bv admitting these ap plicants, just as it would be weakened I by allowing three strong teams 10 re main outside. St. Louis university is known to look favorably upon the acquisition of a berth in the conference and Oklahoma and the Kansas "Aggies'- make no se cret of their desire to be let in. The present organization of the con- Your Daughter The best provision you can make for her The best insurance policy you can leave her Is a useful education in practical business.

A much stronger conference organization and one which woul? do much for increasing the interest in college athletics would be as follows: Missouri, Washington, Kansas, Ames. Oklahoma, Kansas "Aggies" and St. Louis university, with Nebraska if she decides to remain here. HIGHS IN BATTLE TODAY. Washburn Field Scene of Struggle Willi Emporia.

The State Journal Is a member of the Associated Press and receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or ganization for the exclusive afternoon publication !n Topeka. The news Is received in The Stat Jour nal building over wires for this sole pur pose. Presumably Italy now wishes that she had had her differences with Tur key settled at The Hague. Russia must want a portion of Per sia pretty badly, when she's willing to BO to war to avenge an alleged Insult to one of her vice-consuls. Fnusual progress is being made in the McNamara trial. After several weeks of effort four of the twelve jurors have been obtained. There seems to be merit in the sug gestion of some of the Western league magnates for a shorter schedule. Why prolong the agony for the tail-end teams? Everything comes to those who wait. Something of a stringent ordinance is heing planned to regulate effectively the operation of automobiles within the limits of Topeka. The Manchus are getting no more than a taste of the same medicine they doled out when they took the gov ernment of China by force a few cen turies ago from another clan of O'.iini men. What a cruel world this is in places? Municipal judges at Chicago will have to worry along on annual salaries of J6.000. The voters of the Windy City, heartless things, refused to increase their Solomons' pay. One of Italy's warships successfully shelled another defenceless Turkish town the other day. But just wait un til the Italians land a body of troops there. The Turks will more than even things up with them. Farmers who were lucky enough to gather in some corn this year are smiling. The total crop is a short one. That means higher prices for it. As for tlje consumor, well they can twirl their thumbs a little faster, if they v.ant to. A Missouri r-irl may he the best milkmaid in the country, according to a decision reached recently at the na tional dairy show at Chicago. But this docs not put Kansas out of the running for being the home of the prettiest milkmaids. If the Panama Canal is to be ready for traffic in 1913, New Orleans and Louisiana will have a fine chance to stage a Panama canal exposition on their ow n hook which will beat out by two whole years the official one to be held at J?an Francisco. Nor has the cause of muck-raking h-'en strengthened in any material way tiy the episodes surrounding the con solidation of the Hampton and Colum bian magazines and the recer.t arrest of the publisher of the Hampton Columbian on a charge of having used the mails to i) fraud Champ Clark is elated over the re sults of the recent elections;. But you don't hear any hosannas of joy going lip from Woodrow Wilson Co., al though it is likely that Colonel George Harvey will be able to explain away th- Democratic reverses in New Jersey and New York in a perfectly satisfac tory manner to himself. Colonel George is a clever gentleman, even if he does need the services of a valet. Armour Co. have adopted a plan for the pensioning of their employees, whereby, on reaching a certain age, they will be retired on pensions that may amount to half of their regular wages A more remunerative system would bt for Armour Co. to give their superannuated employees all the meat and meat products they and their families' need. Then the worked-out employees would be on easy street for sure. We may all be pardoned, says the Manchester Guardian, for giving up the puzzle of Chinese names, and yet this little vocabulary may help the newspaper reader through the rebel lion: King means metropolis; Fu, provincial capital; Chu, a second class city; Kien, a third class city; Kiang, a river; Ho, a stream; Hal. a lake or sea; Tao, island; Chan, a mountain; Ling, a pass: Ta, big; Siao, little; Kouan, fortress; Wei, camp; Men, car rier; Pei, north; Nan, south; SI, west; Chang, upper; Pai, white; Hei, black; Yang, blue. Nanking, therefore, as has been noted already, is southern metropolis; Peking, northern metropolis. CHAPTER XIX. rThis Chapter XIX at the request of William Allen White is made agricultural, but incidentally somewhat political, and on account of promise in yesterday's Chapter XVIII, greased a little with Rockefeller's Standard Oil, which is prob ably the best oil on the market owing to the fine organization, equipment and world wide facilities, including the so called "economics of administration" en joyed by "John 1J." and his associates. At nom today the writer received a !e' ter fr-.i;j William Allen White, aut lor of "Court of Boyville "A Certain Rich Man," "What's the Matter ni'b. Kan sas," et;-., etc. This letter now has a. bearing on (hese "Reminiscences." As Mr. White's letter was r.ot marked "pri vate," "personal" or "e. ndJontic.l," we viclate no confidence in printing it here with. "Emporia, Kan.. Nov. 9, 1911. "Hear Frank: Walter Hughes and l.aura French are on a vacation and Walt Mason just came back today. So 1 haven't had time to keep the run ot your articles. I don't care what you or any one else says of me. I'm sorry you've got tied up with the stand patters. They're on their last legs. Taft means well but he is out of the possibilities for President. Nothing but a complete face about can save him. But It's all right. Life is too full of beautiful things to get excited about politics. I refuse to read anything you say about Taft or La Follette or Stuhhs or me. But if you have any thoughts on agriculture fine: I'll read them with care. Bang away. 'Shoot, if you must, this old gray head; but spare your country's flag.' Love to Mary and Anna. Sincerely, A. W." To this letter the writer penned the fol lowing reply today: "Lear Will: Thanks for your beautiful letter.

Please show Mary and little Bill our daily page in colors. Ritr hit with Topeka kids. Sincerely, "F. P. M." White is one of the best fellows in the world. The other day one of our reporters in an item called White "narrow minded. uo you Know the adjective is a vicious part of sne-'ch. sometimes? We sometimes think, adjectives ought to be abol ished. It is the adjective which gets a newspaper mar. into libel suits. It is the adjective which is responsible for nearly all the crime not checked up to liquor, riotous living and angry passion. You can call a man a prevaricator, or say that he is mistaken, and even go so far sometimes as to good-naturedly call him a short but ugly word, hut if you put before that short but ugly word an adjective which will be here rt presented by things are likely to pop. Now we wouldn't have had White called "narrow" minded in the State Journal for a ten dollar lull, but in our rush in trying to hold our news bcys and keep the organization of the taper intact, we overlooked that proof and the copy slipped through unex purgated. It is herewith and hereby retracted. We never said White is "narrow-minded," because it would not be true and we try to tell the truth. White is "minded" all right; that is. sometimes. He is not always minded in politics, but that is another story. But White is really broad minded and broad-gauged and a man ot high ideals. He is a busy man. He lets politics, and book-making and office holding mix. He is a re gent of the University; a good one, too; he is an author; a first class one; he is a newspaper man: a fine one, when he gives his attention to the pa per. He has Walt Mason and a bril liant lot of capable assistants: hut when White writes a heavy editorial, he often sails in without being sure of hiy facts. He thinks what the facts ought to be, and seems to write his comments accordingly. In his letter quoted above, he shows he is a very busy man. We are awful ly sorry he has not had time to read these chapters, for though he says it who ought not. he is missing some good political horse sense and when White says that he declines to read any thing we write about Taft or La Follette, or about William Allen, him self, he throws valuable information to the winds. This information, too, all for 2 cer ts daily, in colors. White has been so busy writing a new book which is likely to be a hig her "Best Seller" than "A Certain Rich Man," which is said to be mak ing White a large royalty, and appears to be making White that "Certain Rich Man" himself. White co:oes home from Colorado where he lias buried himself tlire-s months, writing a book, rushes off to Lawrence to attend a meeting of the board of regents of the University of Kansas, takes a whack at the Street Railway, Hiut. Power Light company of Empjria .md then proceeds to attack national politics. This must have been about William Allen's friine of mind, on the hist day of October when he hurled on an unexpected world his now famous edi torial "One Weary Pre&ident," referred to and commented upon in these "Rem iniscences of a Newspaper Man in To peka" in chapter XI. But we said we were going to make this Agricultural and here goes With all of our troubles now comes this old farming "slander" of White's, or his Good Man Friday, Walt Mason, who doea a good deal of the devilment around the Emporia Gazette office when White is away, and sometime;! too, when he is there. This writer, he it remembered, is a farmer by choice, but a newspaper man from necessity. He admits he is not very much of a farmer, that he understands the newspaper business better; but we do have a farm of one hundred acres five milea west of To peka, and raise fine alfalfa, prairie hay, cows and other live stock, pigeons, fruits of all kinds, vegetables too numerous to mention and get pure milk and real cream enough to supply the family, and permit the better half' to make all of the butter we eat. Now, the people of Topeka know all about these things: but here is what White is scattering broadcast over this iand. Now, what Whi: e and Mason write are widely quoted, and we can not offset their "scurrilous" articles by any words of ours in our limited edi tions, and with "no state-wide circula tion," according to our esteemed morn ing contemporary in Topeka: Since White and Mason started the criticism of our agricultural pursuits, they have declared that we put hay on nay-ueriies, uuu ei.ia.vv u berries, that out at the tarm we are now engaged in crossing the burning bush with the tomato vine in hopes of producing hot tamales. Now what do you think of that! But here is what White Mason says in black and white, but still rather highly colored: "A Pastoral. "The sun was rising in the West, and shed its beams on Ccdarcrest, where pen sive goat and sportive cow were perched upon the cedar bough. There Frank llacLennan watched his flocks, anil slugged the gentle sheep with -rocks, ana droves his hens to lakelet's brim, that they might dive, and bathe, and swim. The pigs were climbing elms and firs, the hired man gathered cockleburs; a doctor passed on horse's back and all the ducks called loudly: "Quack!" The fruit tree agent asked to stay all night; the horses whinnied "Neigni reaee noverea o ti the prairie wide; the cattle lowed, the horsea hlghed; and sounded through the village smoke, the bark of watchdog, elm and oak. And he who owned these rustic scenes, had seeded down his farm to beans. "WALT MASON." But we almost forgot about Stand ard Oil. To be brief, about three years years ago, Mr. Rockefeller or his as sociates, took the advertising of Standard Oil including Mica Axle Grease, Blue Flame I-amps, Parafine, Reo Lamps, Perfection Oil Burners, Frank Miller's Harness Dressing, Polarine Oil, etc, etc., out of the hands of N. W. Ayer Newspaper Agency of Philadelphia, and under took to deprive the Ayer agency, and any other agency, of the commission of 15 per cent to which they are ac customed to be allowed by newspapers for advertisement placed. The Standard Oil engaged a man named Perrine. gave him a desk, and apparently told him that he mutt save the fifteen per cent the Standard Oil had been obliged to pay through Ayer'g and other agencies, and fifteen per cent is quite a sum of money concern ing the big Standard Oil advertising: they told this man Perrine that he must not place any business with the newspapers unless they granted his commission. Right here and then the State Jour nal objected. We are perfectly willing to pay a commission of 15 per cent to a recognized advertising agency. We thought this was unfair to Ayer's and Ayer's is tne very best advertising agency ,n this country, Dar none; irai is our opinion, based on years and years of service from this excellent con cern. We declined to give Mr. Rockefeller the commission we would give Mr. Ayer, because Mr. Rockefeller was not entitled to it any more than he would be to buy a copy of tonight's State Journal at one cent. This is the wholesale rate to news boys and news stands and is not granted to individual purchasers. This man Perrine, by the way, used to represent "Sozodont" and when the writer some years ago used to go around New York city trying to get some advertising to help out expenses, he tried to approach this man Perrine down on Greenwich street, but Per rine was surrounded by so many "flunkies" and so much red t' that we could hardly get within a mile of him. He had certain hours and certain days apparently in which he would see common newspaper men from Kansas and other eastern and western 'ta'es. Now. we could not wait around two or three days just to accommodate Mr. Perrine's arbitrary .-.chedule, so it was not very often that we saw Mr. Per rine, but we saw people "just as good." As a rule, we are opposed to sub stitutes, but if we could get a substi tute for Perrine, we took it, and took it quick. That is the reason we do not carry Standard Oil advertising and have not carried it for three years and will not carry it until Rockefeller and his asso ciates quit their parsimonious way to deprive the X. W. Ayer. Son News paper Advertising agency of their rightful commission. By the way if Governor StuLbs should be foolish enough to call a special ses sion of the legislature to aid LaFoI lette at a cost to us taxpayers of JS0.000 to $100,000 we won't do a thing to the governor, whether his name be Stubbs or Capper, or Hod'gBS, or Ryan. (Chapter XX Tomorrow.) KANSAS COMMENT EXPANDING THE: CRANIUM. Remnants of another prehistoric man have been found, this "first settler" ante dating all others, even the human crea ture of 20,000 years ago, whose skull was found in the limestone stratum of Kansas We know not of what value such a dis covery may be, unless it is to inspire in us hope of the improvement our descend ants may make in themselves in the next 20.0C0 years, since so much has been achieved in the last 20,000. We admit there is great room for Im provement; and 200 centuries is a long time to practice on checking one's unde sirable foibles, and overcoming habits which tend to a less robust physique. Sometimes we seem to be going back ward, but taking us by and large, before, behind and sideways, there is the ocular and physical proof in these prehistoric skulls that our efforts as a race have succeeded in establishing a front eleva tion of the forehead far beyond that of the first man. As we aspired for more brains, we, got them; that Is tne lnnuence oi mind over matter; anybody can do it. We venture to say that by severe application, a limit ed ribbon-like forehead can be lifted noticeably from the age of 16 until a man knows so much he begins to think he knows it all: after that his case is hope less. In this, prehistoric man had the advantage. None of him ever thought he knew It all. El Dorado Republican. POST-SCRIPT Fond Du Lac, Wis.. Nov. 10.

By Kate Cleves.l ivj-arsiian Bowman came into the moonlit veranda and looked around at the occupied chairs. Siva Smith was nownere to be seen and an amus ed voice nearby proclaimed Marshall's predicament. "She's in the angle seat. Marsh," and Alarshall acknowledged the infor mation .vith a sheepish grin and dis appeared around the corner of the house. The informing voice had not added mat. ten Jr-urdy was sitting in the angie seat with pretty Siva Smith, and when Marshall discovered Mr. Purdy it waa something of a shock, for Marshall Bowman needed advice and sympathy at that moment and oiva waa tne one person to whom he turned when his affairs needed a sym pathetic understanding and untang ling. Pen Purdy was leaving her, reluct antly pleading a waiting partner for this dance and Marshall slipped into the vacant seat. "i.Iy dance, I believe, Siva," he said eagerly. "Do you mind sitting it out?" "Ftan.cly, I'd muih rather dance," said Siva in her fresh, clear voice, "but I know you've got something on your mind. Marsh, and you want ex pert advice, so out with it and let the seeress relieve your anxiety." "For the last time. Siva." he hdoIo- gized; "I won't bother you again with my affairs, only you see, this is some thing that no cne but a girl can tell mo a girl like you!" "Oh, I see." said Siva a little cold ly, then.as she taw the troubled look on his lace her voice softened to the tone that always thrilled him. so full of womanly sympathy and understand ing of him was it. Tin always glad to help. Marsh, but you know I'm only girl ana I haven t had experience enough to make me an expert on all matters. "I'm in love, Siva," he said in a low tone, and looking away from her. "Don't laugh!" "I'm not laughing," said Siva after a little i'ause. "Love is a serious thing. Maish." "That's what troubles me. If I only knew how to reach her he paused helplessly. Better till me all about it, said Siva in a toneless voice, that he was quick to notice. 'I am boring you!" he cried. "No no go on, Marsh," she said almost impatiently. "I'm engaged for the next dance and you must get this ever now. Who is the girl?" "I don't know," admitted Marshall. "Don't know?" echoed Siva. He shook his head ruefully. "I've never met her ana don t know ner real name, but I'm sure dead sure Siva, that the is my future wife, that she is the one being who has been created for me. In fact, to use that I overworked word, she is my affinity. Whv, every word she writes is a direct message to me alone. It nnas its marie here in my heart. Don't laugh. Siva. I've never talked this way before and I know you think I'm a fool," he ended lamely. "Nthing cf the sort. Marsh Tell me more does she write to you?" "No well, she writes poems and they are published in c-ne of the mag azines, not one that I usually take, but I happe.-.ed to read one some months ago and do yot' know, Siva, it struck an answering chord in my heart and I've read every one since then." "Yes, Marsh," said Siva steadily, although her eyes were shining strange ly and her little white ringless hands were tightly clen.hed in her lap. "That's all only tell me how can I meet her?" he asked. "You would probably be disappoint ed," he said pityingly. "Very likely she is seme middle-aged woman, who is pouring out her disappointment in life through the medium of poetry. Ev ery soul has to have some outlet," :she ended musingly. "Never!" protested Marshall vigor ously. "She is young and full of the spring of life. The same fire runs in her veins as in mine, and I know. Siva, that she is for me her messages are for .ne!" "Conceited!" said Siva, rising from her seat and leaning against a vine draped pillar with her back to the moonlight. "Oil, Siva, I am disappointed in you," he cried; "I thought you'd give a fel low some advice instead of treating me flippantly. You must know I'm not gushing I don't mean to he "Forgive me. Marsh." said Siva qui etly. You want to a&k me how to approach the sort of a girl you know she is?" "That's it, exactly! She writes ur der a single name, 'Avis.' but she must have a surname, and she murt have a home somewhere, and I want to meet her and some day marry her." "You are in earneut, Marshall?" ask ed Siva in a shaking voice. "I am." he said solemnly. "Then I will arrange it so yen can meet Avis and I hope yc: won't be disappointed, but I'm afraid you will. Here comes Fen Purdy this is his dance. I must go." "Ah, but you're a brick, Siva the next dance is mine, and well dance it. eh, not sit it out?" "As you please." murmured Slv and was gone. Marshall arose and went to one of the open wirdows. leaning against the frame and looking in on the dancers Now that he had intrusted his secret to Siva Smith, he felt that there was more realitv to it than the mere dream ing of the identity of the poetess whose verses had won his love. Strangely contented, he watched the pretty rcene within, glowing every time Siva Smith passed him. Fen Pur dy's black sleeve against the pale pink of her gown. Siva's hair was bronze brown with golden lights and her eyes were th-2 same and her face was beau tiful surpassingly lovely tonight, with her lipes curved into a happy sinile and her bro.vn eyes shining with Inward jOi". All at once Marshall was jealous of Fen Purdy. who had fallen helplessly In love with Siva. Purdy was rich and handsome and Siva was bo desirable! Why hid Marshall never thought of that before? Bv the time the dance was over Marshall Bowman knew that he was in love with Siva Smith, that he always had been and that he would tell her of it os soon as he could reach her side He claimed her at once and took her out to the angle seat. "Siva Smith," he said solemnly. "I know you'll think I am a fool, but I've just discovered that there is somebody I love more than Avis." Siva uttered a low cry and her hands fled to her heart. "What Is it, Siva?" he asked alarm ed. "A little pain near my heart I have it often. Pray tell me cf your new love." "Not h. new one only. Siva, dear, I've been watching you dancing in there and I find that you are the girl of my heart after all. I don't sup pose you cculd learn to like me a lit tle?" "I? Why Marsh, I never thought you cared for me." "It came to me all at once that if you married Fen Purdy and I mar ried Avis, my paper lady, that I would be wretchei all the days of my life. You've been my confessor for so long, dear, you know all my sins you couldn't care, could you, Siva?" A.id Siva told him she could care and she had cared for a long time. "How about poor Avis of the poems?" she p.sked him after a while. "Ah. I cun't marry both you." he laughed happily, "and I choose you." "If you marry me you will marry Avis, too." said Siva softly. "Oh, you blind Marshall' Transpose the. letters of her name and vou get mine! wrt te those verses to you and found vou after all." "We found each other." amended Marshall tenderly.

Leavenworth, Kan., Nov. 10. When the new tipple, air fan and tower house are installed at the coal mine at the state prison, the mine will be one ot the best equipped in the state, accord ing to A. Fulton, superintendent of the mine. Until these improvements are made there is a great deal of danger from fire at the mouth of the mine, says Mr. Fulton. 'Most of the upper part of the tower house is soaked with oil," said Mr. Ful ton. "The dancer of quick ignition from this oil is doubled by the oldness of the lumber, both in the tipple and the tower house. We certainly need the new equipment that the legislature provided for. Must Wait Till Spring. "Very little of the work can be done this winter, as only a small portion of the new material has come. Even if it does come now the work can not bo done unless the winter is mild. "Practically the same dangerous condition exists at the mouth of the shale mine, only from that mine the men could escape through the shaft of the coal mine. "If it were possible to have the en tire legislative body visit the prison ceivable style, weave, fabric, weight, length and size; and at all prices from fifteen to fifty dollarsthis is the sort of variety we offer you. Nor can you know the satisfaction of selecting from a really complete stock until you have seen ours.

A Hutchinson young man who tried to get through on S3 got cut rates, but bargains have been suspended. They called at the home of Probate Judge J. II. Jordan and asked to be married. The judge keeps an emerg ency supply of licenses at his home and he had one filled out ir. short order. After Judge Jordan had filled out the license and was just about to tie the knot, the young man had a thought. "What's the charge?" he Inquired. "'Five dollars: two and a half for the license and the same for the hitch ing." replied the judge. "Goodness sakes, judge: hain't got .that much money. I thought it was only three dollars." He carefully searched his. pockets, but could only scrape up a total of $3.30. The bride nearly fainted with cha grin. Judge Jordan took pity on them, and they were made happy.
