Kjan Testifies Be fore the Clapp Committee Itegarding Campaign Contribu tions lie Made in 1904. HE WAS OPPOSED TO PARKER And Was Convinced He Could "ot Be Elected. lVas 3Ierely Desirous of Hold ing the Party Together. Washington, Oct. 21. Thomas For tune Ryan was the first -witness to day before the senate campaign con tribution committee. Others sched uled to testify were George W. Per kins and Peter Hoban, James A. Campbell. Charles K. Droworth, Harry S. Calvert, John H. Nugent, IT. 15. Nesbitt and Robert Hight, the latter seven called in connection with the Klinn-Penrose political controversy in Pennsylvania. Mr. Ryan first told the committee that he shouldered $350,000 of the debts of the Democratic na tional committee in 1904. "Early in the campaign," he said, r gave $30,000 to the fund, although I was opposed to the nomination of Judge Parker. I gave probably $50, 000 in smaller contributions. "When the end of the campaign was draw ing near and it was quite apparent that Mr. Parker could not be elect ed, some of my friends came to me and told me the campaign would col lapse unless the committee received financial assistance. I finally agreed in order to pay the party workers and preserve the integrity of the par tv, to furnish $350,000. This made a total of $450,000 I gave throughout the campaign. This was a personal contribution and did not represent anv one except myself. I did not give the money to elect Parker. I merely wanted to preserve the Democratic or ganization." In reply to questions concerning the preconvention campaign of 1912, Mr. Ryan said he had contributed be tween $75,000 and $80,000 to Gover nor Harmon's campaign and more than $30,000 to Representative Under wood's. "When I came back from Europe in 1911 I made up my mind that the prospects of Democratic success were very bright," he said. "I thought any Democrat except Mr. Bryan could ba elected and was willing to aid any other man. He had led the party to defeat three times and I regarded him as the only cloud on the horizon. Ho Favored No One. "I had no special interest in ary one but I had known Governor Har mon of Ohio for 25 years and believed he would make a good president. I gave his managers somewhere be tween $75,000 and $S0.000. Later on my friend. Senator Bankhead, man ager for Mr Underwood, came to me with an argument in favor of a south ern man for president. That appealed to me and I gave him thirty-odd thousand dollars. I was not asked to aid Mr. Clark or Mr. W'ilson but would have given them assistance if it hart been requested." Mr. Ryan said that before Parker's nomination he was convinced he could not be elected. George W. Perkins was the next witness. He gave his occupation as "retired working man." Asked as to the campaign of 1904 Mr. Perkins said that lie was asked by Treasurer Bliss to take a place as a member of a local committee in Xew York to aid in collecting funds for the campaign. "I worked in New- York," said Mr. Perkins, "with Mr. liliss. There were similar commit tees in Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Bos ton and Chicago." Mr. Perkins flatly denied that he knew of any concerted political action hv the financial Interest? in Wall street. He said that as he remem bered it. he gave $75,000 or $80,000 to the 1904 funds. "Whenever Mr. Bliss would gt short or funds would run low he said he would make a contribution of 000 or $10,000." Chairman Clapp asked what contri butions Mr. Perkins knew of outside hip own. "I was connected with the New York Life Insurance company and I know of that company's constitu tions," said he. Justifies His Action. Mr. Perkins produced a long state ment regarding the contributions of the New York Life Insurance com pany which the committee permitted him to read into the record. The statement quoted at length from the testimony of the late President Mc t all of the New York Life Insurance company before the Armstrong in vestigating committee to show that the Xew York Life contribution was made to defeat the "free silver heresies" of W. J. Bryan. It was arguyd that the money was given to insure the estab lishment of a gold standard for the protection of the policy holders of the company and therefore it was proper to use the money of the policy holders. The witness grew particularly earn est as concluding the statement he read "I believed at the time and have alv-avs since believed that in this transaction Mr. McCall did exactly light- that he wou-.d have been un true to his trust, weak anl cowardly, ".ad he taken any other course. "There is no question that the thor oughly vnscrupulou-!, dasta-dly attacks upon Mr. McCall by certain portions f the sensational press of The country brousht about his untimely death; yet. it is a most significant fact that in all this criticism of both him and me, not i single policy holder, so far as 1 am Tware out of the many thousands in New York Life, ever wrote a single letter or criticism or cj;nplalnt of what he did. either to Mr McCall or myself. Without any iaw or regula I'on to guide us, impressed with the gn-at responsibility we wern carrying, rirmly believing that the Democratic party was advocating financial theories which, if enacted i..to laws, would most seriously affect tae assets of the yolk holders, both Mr. McCall and I i:ld our duty as we aw It." Air. Perking said for the insurance MONDAY KVENTNG. company ho advanced to Mr. Bliss $48.50C, for which he was reimbursed by the company. Later when the In surance investigation began he re turned the money to the company. Perkins Shakes His Fist. Mr. Perkins denounced as an "un mitigated falsehood" the charge that he had underwritten the Roosevelt preconvention campaign this year ii the sum of $3,000,000. Rising from, his chair and snaking his clinched fi9t Mr. Perkins rhouted: "Among the lost list of unmitigated lies throughcut this campaign that statement perhaps ought to be placed at the top because it is the largest. "I am in hopes that Senator Penrose will be here today. He made that statement on the floor of the senate and he ought to be required to prove it or, like a gentleman, he ought to take it back. There is not a scintil la of truth in it from a to z." "Just a minute," Interrupted Chair man Clapp. "All that is1 necessary is that you deny it. All the committee can do it to determine the proof or the absence of proof." Mr. Perkins was not to be stopped. He continued: "I want to know where I stand. I want to know whether I can be charg ed with these things on the floor of the United States senate and not bs given an oportunity to disprove them." He insisted that Mr. Penrose should be brought before the committee and say whether his charge was "mere hot air." Taking up accusations by Chairman Hilles that the Harvester company had made large contributions to the Roosevelt campaign, Mr. Perkins de clared with heat: "This is an absolute falsehood made out of the whole cloth and if Mr. Hilles has any reason to believe that contributions have been made by the Harvester company he owes it to me and to others to have the books of the company audited for the purpose of proving or disproving the accusation." Here Mr. Perkins rose from his seat and protested that he had been "villified" as no other man had been and he insisted that the committee require his accusers to prove their charges. Senator Clapp replied that the com mittee had no means of doing that. What He Would Do. "If I were president and a subordi nate should make such a charge as Mr. Hilles has made, I should make nim prove it or dism'ss him from of fice," replied Mr. Perl.lns, still stand ing and shaking his hand violently. The chair reminded him :hat he had been brought to Wasaington to speak in his own behalf. "That is fine." he said, "but what I want to know is whether the commit tee is going to bring Senator Penrose or .vir. wines back and compel him to make god." Mr. Perkins contended that it would be easy to prove what had been con tributed to the campaign fund from ne treasury or the Harvester com pany. He said he was a member of tne board or directors of that company and chairman of finance committee and knew that not a cent .,f the com pany funds had been given to aid Col onel Roosevelt. Mr. Perkins gave his contributions to the Roosevelt pre convention fund as iollowe: To N'ew York state lommlttee. $15; 000; to E. H. Hooker for the national fund, $22,500; to the Washington bu reau. $32,500; for polls, etc., in New York and Brooklyn, $16,000; sent to ether states, $19,500; to E. W. Sims, $17,000. "This statement is absolutely com plete said Mr. Perkins. "My total contributions were $122,500." Mr. Perkins declared that he urged publicity of campaign contributions in .he Hanna campaigns and the 1904 campaign but without much result. He produced memoranda showing that :n the campaign of 1908 he urged Chairman Hitchcock of the Republi can national committee to make pub lic the campaign contribution and ex penditures before election. EVIL WAYS AWlDONED Prosecution of Standard Oil Has Been a Success. Washington, Oct. 21. To sustain his contention that the decree dissolving the Standard Oil comnanv rave the reHaf sought by the anti-trust against the cor corporation. Attorne y General Wick ersham has issued a statement reveallag some of the results of an inquiry ho hai been making into conditions in the oil business. The statement, intended as a further reply to criticisms that such decrees ss that of the Standard Oil benefited i!ie trusts, was built around a letter, optim istic as to present conditions which the attorney general recently received from C. D. Chamberlain, secretary and general counsel of the National Petroleum associa tion. That organization is composed of a large number of independent refinirs companies embracing according to tne attorney general, practically all the com panies not connected with the Standard Mr. Wickersham had written to Mr. Chamberlain, the statement said, for ac curate information as to present conc.i tions contrasted with those existing prior to the supreme court's decision in May, 1911. Mr. Chamberlain pointed out that it was difficult to make such a comparison, because the effect of the governments prosecution of the Standard Oil combina tion began practically with, the filing o' that suit in November, 1906; and from that date the practices of the Standard Oil combination in large measure ceased to be predatory and the independent deal ers began to have a chance to live. Continued Improvement. "This condition," Mr. Chamberlain ai ded, "continuously improved, during the pendency of the government's suit, a.id that improvement has continued since tae decree of dissolution so that it may be stated that the giving of rebates upon wide, the Standard monopoly was built up. has ceased, preferential rates are few and far between, disclosure of Informa tion by carriers of competitive shipments is no longer practiced, price cutting be low cost to kill competition is tare, and many other unet-.ical commercial prac tices have become so infrequent as hardly to cause complaint. "Now the independent manufac turer and refiner of oil is able to conduct his business with a fair share of profit reasonably due him and without, the fear ful handicap under which he labored be fore the government suit was biought. "In li returns from the oil industry show that the Standard Oil combination controlled about t per cent of the entire oil business of the United States and the remaining 1 per cent was distributed anions the independent companies. The most accurate data which I have been able to secure show that at present the independent companies control 34 per cent, exclusive of California, where I am in formed the independents control nearly 60 per cent. "One other practical result of the gov ernment's prosecution and decree lo shown in the increased prices secured by tiie producers of crude petroleum." TOP1SKA. L JOHNSON HIT IIAR That $50,000 Fight in Australia Is Called Off. Whites There Are Angered hy Girl's Abdnction. Sydney, Oct. 21. Jack Johnson will not fight in Australia. Hugh Mcin tosh, the Australian promotor who had offered Johnson $50,000 for fights with Sam Langford and Sam McVey or Joe Jeanette. cabled today to W. W. Kelly, his representative in Chicago, to iaa cel all negotiations. Mcintosh explained that Johnson's part in the alleged abduction of Lucile Cameron, white girl, had so angered the sporting men and public at largo cf Australia that the matches were no longer desirable. Judge Foils Jack's Attorney. Chicago. Oct. 21. Robert E. Cantwell, an attorney today asked United Stoes District Judge Carpenter for a writ of habeas corpus for Lucile Cameron, the Minneapolis girl whose name has been connected with that of Jack Jo.m ron the negro pugilist, and who is be ine'held in the Rockford, Illinois, jail in default of $25,000 bond as a witness before the federal grand Jury. Judge Carpenter announced that he would be unable to hear the petition untu to morrow. Inasmuch as the girl is to ap pear before the grand jury tomorrow. Attorney Cantwell withdrew his peti tion. He would not say whether he had been retained by Johnson Federal investigation of the charges that Johnson violated the Mann law moved swiftly today. Twenty-five subpoenaes were served on the pugi list's associaates, ordering them to ap pear before the federal jury tomor row. Prosecution was started by the city against Johnson for alleged violation of the 1 o'clock saloon closing law. The case was set for hearing Octo ber 29. JOHVSON SCARED. Black Champion's Place Guarded by Special Detectives. Chicago, Oct. 21. Instead of the ad miring throngs which followed his mo tor car through the streets of Chicago, Jack Johnson, negro champion- prize fighter, now faces angry crowds. The cheers that formerly greeted him on his appearance have been changed into hisses and the fighter Is obliged to pro tect himself with a bodyguard of six strongarm men. At one time today it was reported that he had been shot. Saturday afternoon he was at be corner of South Dearborn and West Mcnroe streets. He went mto a build -ing on business and came forth to find a crowd of one thousand persons block ing the path to his car. "Kill him," "Lynch him," were the cries which followed his appearance and from a window some one hurled an ink bottle that, it is said, narrowly missed the head of the giant prize fighter. The six strongarm men fougnt openings through the crowd and John son was whirled from the scene ol danger. Public opinion has been inflamed by reports of his affair with Lucile Ca-n-eron. the 19-year-old white girl from Minneapolis, and there is much talk of driving him from the city. It was the determination of Lucile's mother, Mrs. F. Cameron-Falconet, that aroused the storm of indignation against Johnson and involved him in a complication of legal difficulties. She swore out a warrant for Johnson on a charge of abduction and af the same time she requested that Lucile be te tained pending an examination of h.r sar.ity. The first move into the case did not disturb the black champion. Confident thrt his money would extricate him from the predicament, 'he treated the matter in the light of a j-ke. "They can't get me." he said. "I've go money, so what's the use in try'ng to knock." Still the mother fought on, even when KANSAS, OCTOBER 21, UNANIMOUS. tha prizefighter put up $800 cash bail and intimated that he would get Lucile out on bail in a short time. But Police Captain Noorbaar stepped into the breach. "I have no right to do this, perhaps, from a legal standpoint, he said, "but in the interest of humanity I feel that this girl should be detained." Meantime the federal authorities swore out a warrant against Jeanette Dorr, said to be a friend of Johnson, on a charge of violating the white slave law. Miss Cameron was named as a witness in this case, and her bail was fixed at S25.000. Took tho Girl Away. Still Johnson persisted in his efforLs to obtain her release. He attempted to talk with her on several occasions and finally his own bail was increased from $800 to $1,500, and he was obliged to employ a professional bondsman to regain his liberty. He engaged three lawyers to advise him, and at the time of the demonstra tion yesterday, it was rumored that he was seeking to obtain the $25,000 bail for the release of the girl that he might marry her and escape prosecu tion. Johnson, it was said, would pledge his cafe, worth $60,000, to ac accomplish his purpose. To prevent communication between her and the prize fighter or his friends. Miss Cameron has been taken to Rock ford, 111., by federal authorities in de fault of bail. Women's clubs throughout the city rallied to the mother's support. Meet ings were held and it was announced that unless the administration took some action the women themselves would devise some means of driving Johnson from the city. Johnson's cafe is guarded by a special detective squad. The negro says he has received threats of death and dynamite. IS 13 DEGREES COLDER Sudden Change lit Temperature Today Snow in Denver.

MONDAY DROP THREE MILES Two German Balloonists Killed Making a Trial Flight. Gas Bag Burst or Was Struck by Lightning. Berlin, Oct. 21. The announcement of the death yesterday of Lieut. Hans Gericke, winner of last year's intern x tional balloon race in the United States and head of the team of German de fenders in the races to be held from Stuttgart next Saturday, created or fcund sensation here today. He ;ws thrown from his balloon at a height of three miles by the explosion of the gas bag. which is believed to 'nve bsen struck by lightning. His aide, Lieuten ant Steler, also was killed. Gericke and Steler were making a trial flight to test the new ball .on which they expected to use in the inter national races. Just above the town of Grossenhain they met a thunder st nn, which they attempted to avoid by ris ing above the disturbance. When a mil in the air the craft was caught in an eddy and became unmanageable. After a terriffic rush straight upward, the bag burst. The shattered instruments which the balioonists carried on their flighht vfe examined today. The recording appar atus showed they were riding at a height of 6,000 feet when thev were sud denly hit by a vertical gust of wind which pushed them straiU up with the violence of a hurricane to a '.eight of more than 15.000 feet. At this altitude the bag burst, either from the sudden change In prersur or as is more likely from oeing st-ifk bv lightning. The balloon embodiea nil the latest ideas in gas bag construction and was regarded throughout Germany as the likely winner of the international cap in next Saturday's cou .est. Gerc5.e and Steler had expected to try for an altitude record in the course of yest"--day's flight and had equipped their car with oxygen tanks and apparatus to as sist them in enduring rarified atmos phere.

BOMBARDJ FORT Turkish Warships Shell the Fortifications at Kavarna, Sultan's Army Is Retiring Be fore Advance of Allies. Sofia, Oct. 21. Turkish warships to day bombarded the Bulgarian fort of Kavarna. The customs house was de stroyed and several shops and dwell ings were damaged. Kavarna is a Bulgarian town on the Black sea, 28 miles northeast of Varna. Big Battles Soon. London, Oct. 21. Three and perhaps four big battles probably will begin within a few days if not a few hours, on the territory of European Turkey. The armies of Balkan allies have now crossed the frontier on all sides, while the Turks as their opponents advance, are giving up their frontier posts and abandoning small and unimportant towns, falling back slowly on to their strongly entrenched positions prepara tory to giving battle there. The Bulgarian army will, it Is thought be the first to strike because at its objective point the fortress of Adrianople, the main Turkish army is growing in strength. If the Bulgarians allow the Turks time, the sultan's army will outgrow that of the invad ers. It was rumored today that two of the outer fortresses of Adrianople had fallen into the Bulgarian hands and that the town of Kirk-Killisseh had been captured, but there was no confirmation. The Greek army is resting after its capture of the Turkish town of Elas sona and preparing for the more stren uous task of attacking the Turkish army of 4.000 men concentrated at the town of Servia, a little to the north. The Greeks are said to be 60,000 strong. The grimmest fighting of the war is likely to occur out of sight of the main armies as some 4,000 Albanians are arming and Greek and Bulgarian bands have taken to the hills, where they will engage in guerrilla warfare. HEAD NEARLY GUT OFF Some One Stretched Pope Across Xavy Yard Street. r Washington, Oct. 21. Xearly decapi tated as the result of an automobile accident. Alexander O'Shea, a civil en gineer, lies today at a local hospital between life and death. Mr. O'Sher., who is connected with the government proving grounds at Indian Head, was driving his motor car rapidly through the navy yard last night when he dashed into a rope stretched across the road. The rope caught him beneath the chin. That his head was not torn from his shoulders was due to the slackness of the rope and to the quick action of a friend in the tonneau who sprang forward and reversed the engine. O'Shea was hurried to the hospital where 17 stitches were taken in his throat. Later he recovered conscious ness but his vocal chords appeared paralyzed.

OFF FOR HOME Colonel ItooseTelt Leares Chi cago for Oyster Bay Accompanied by His Family and Two Doctors. THE FINAL CONSULTATION Shows Him to Be in Excellent Physical Condition Although He Spent a Somewhat Restless Vight. Chicago, Oct. 21 Preparations for Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's depar ture from Mercy hospital to the train at Union station which takes him to Oyster Bay were completed early to uay and he was placed in an ambu lance at 7:15 o'clock for the short trip through the city. His train left tho station at 8:30 o'clock. Tho colonel's last night at the hospital was rather a restless one. He slept only about four hours in the aggregate from the time he first fell asleep at 11:15 p. m. He awoke frequently and he seemed nerv ous. It was said by Night Nurse Fitz gerald that this was chiefly due to tho excitement of his comlnt; departure and not to any untoward symptoms that had developed in the course of the night. Colonel Roosevelt left Mercy hos pital at exactly 7:20 for the station where he was to board a Pe nslyvania train for the journey homa. He was taken out of the hospital qn a wheel chair to an automobile ambulance. The colonel was accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt. When he was ready to depart the colonel said he was feeling well but that because of his restlessness during the night he was somewhat sleepy and hoped he would be -b)e to get some est after he had reached his berth. He w'S cheerful and expressed pleas ure that he was so soon tj be on tha way to his home at Oyster Bay. He awoke shortly before C j'clock and was given his morning sponge bath and rubdown. His breakfast consist ed of bacon, three sof. boiled eggs, buttered toast and a pot of tea. Mrs. Roosevelt had breakfast with, her hus band in his room. The Last Consultation. Dr. John B. Murphy arrived at the hospital at 6:30 a. m. and with Dr. Wm. B. McCauley, the house surgeon, dressed the colonel's wound for the last time before his departure for the east. At the same time a consultation was held at which Dr. Scurry L. Terrell, the colonel's socialist. Dr. John B. Golden, Dr. Murphy's assist ant, were present. This consultation was for the purpose of establishing the colonel's actual physical condition with a view of taking such precau tions' as may be necessary to make the journey as comfortable and safe aii possible. At 7: SO a. m. the following official bulletin was is3ued: "Pulse, temperature and respiration normal. Wound still discharges a lit tle serum. There is less Inflammation. Point bullet location Is sensitive to pressure and bullet can now be dis tinctly located. General condition good. "DR. JOHN B. MURPHT. "DR. ALEXANDER LAMBERT, "DR. A. T. BEVAN. "DR. SCURRY L. TERRELL." Long before the time to leave the hospital Colonel Roosevelt was fully dressed. Over his street clothes he wore the heavy army overcoat he ha-1 on the evening he was Bhot. The hole in the right breast was not distinguish able at any distance. Walks From His Room, The colonel walked from his room to the wheel chair in the corridor. He was accomplished by Dr. John 15. Murphv and Mrs. Roosevelt. On the way through the hospital the various room had their doors opened. Patients called a greeting to him and wished him a safe journey. Outside there was a large crowd of spectators who also shouted greetings. At th-i door he abandoned the chair and on the arm of Dr. Lambert took the few steps to the door of the ambulance. The start was immediate. In front of the ambulance was a large detail of motorcycle police, a squad of whom followed. Then came motor cars in which were Col. Cecil Lyon and the remainder of the Roosevelt party. Ia other motor cars were many newspaper men and photographers. Throughout the earlv morning or ever since the time Col. Roosevelt awoke there wa an iAr of expectancy in the corridor of the hospital. Preparations for depar ture had been made carefully. There was not the slightest hitch. Just as he was being taken from the wheel chair at the hospital door, the colonel bade goodby to his two nurses. Night Nurse Margaret Fitzgerald was the first to shake his hand and to re ceive the famous Roosevelt smile. She was followed by Day Nurse Blanche Welter. Both nurses were cordially thanked by the colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt. The last thing that colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt did was to shake hands with and thank Mother Margaret Mary, the mother superior In charge of the hos pital. The farewell was brief but af fecting. Into the eyes of Mrs. Roose velt a tear came while the eyes of the mother puperior were suffused and she quickly turned her head and then hur ried into the building. Avoids the Crowd. To avoid a crowd at the station Col. Roosevelt boarded the train In the railroad yard at Twelfth street, half a mile away. The train was then backed into the terminal train shed where the colonel's baggage was re ceived. In the party that entered Col. Roosevelt's car were Mrs. Roose velt, Ethel Roosevelt, Theodore, Jr.. Col. Cecil Lyon and Drs. Lambert and Terrell. Col. Roosevelt's train, which had been scheduled to jave Chicago at 8:15 a. m.. did net pull out until 8:30. There had been a collision on the Burling tion tracks at Fourteenth street ad joining the rails ovtr which the Roose velt train was to pass.

It later was learned that two unat tached engines had crashed into each other on the Burlington tracks an hour before Colonel Roosevelt's train was to pass by on ho Pennsylvania line a few yards distant. The accident due to a mistake t a signal man, resulted in injuries to one engineer. Colonel Roosevelt's departure was ma-ked by no incident not arranged by Colonel Cecil Lyon anrl Assistant Chief of Police Herman Schuttler. The colonel had been provided with a large easy chair which he expected occupy until he became tired, when lie will lie down. No discomfort was felt by the in jured man as the train was backed over cross tracks into the union sta tion.

At the EngIewood station, several miles out fron the Union sta tion, the car's guard of pol-cemen left .he train and only two detectives went on. They were to leave the train at Ciary. Mrs. Alice Longwor'h did not p.ppear in the party. She went on an other train at 9:40 o'clock bound for Cincinnati. Many efforts were made by passengers on the train to get back tc see Colonel Roosevelt whose car was last on the train but they were stopped by guards. Getting Along Fine. Gary, Ind., Oct. 21. Col. Roose velt announced he was not feeling- any discomrort from tne motion from the train when his party stopped here for a few minutes to send last telegrams east. "It is not bothering m at all," he told the correspondents. "If the whole trip is like this I shall get along fine." Noon Bulletin. On Board Roosevelt Car. Fort Wayne, Ind., Oct. 21.

The Bullet Colonel Roosevelt Carries Can't Harm Him. Chicago, Oct. 21. The position of the bullet that so nearly cost Colonel Roosevelt his life has been fixed with precision. An X-ray pnotograph was taken and from this it v. as learned that the bullet lay oa the outside of the rib. Until this photograph was taken the physicians had been unable to state positively whether it was on the outside or inside the rib. "We know definitely that the bullet lies outside the rib, where it can do no harm," said Dr. Lambert- "It lies in such a position tht I could reach tiie spot precisely through a small in cision, should Colonel Roosevelt de sire to have it removed at any time. It is matter of his own prclerence." Colonel Roosevelt said he did not think he would ever have the bullet femoved. HE FOLLOWS EOOSFVELT. Mysterious Colombian Insists on Point ing Out the Colonel's Sins. Chicago, Oct. 21. An attempt to see Colonel Roosevelt was made at Mercy hospital shor'ly before mid night by Luis E. Molina., who gave -lis address at Bogota, Colombia, and said he was a secret diplomatic repre sentative of the Colombian govern ment. He was stopped by the guard, 1'etectives and city police who were on duty. Molina said his father Is a senator of Colombia. He sent Colonel Roose velt a postal card and wrote him a long letter containing accusations that '.he colonel had committed "an -atrocious crime" in taking Panama from "olerabia and bidding I-ixn beware of the vengeance of God. Molina was accompanist by two Mexicans who gave their names as B. .'arello and Esteban Mjran. They said they had known Molina but a er ours. Molina said he would r,o to New York oa the same train with the colo nel and would see hirn there or would follow him to Oyster Bay. He ex hibited a ticket over the Pennsylvania railroad, to New York that would en title him to travel on the train taken "cy the colonel. He also displayed a larre roll of bills. -'v. The detectives utter questioning Molina, permitted him to depart. Col onel Roosevelt knew nothing of the attempt to see him. Molina sent a box of flowers to the colonel, and followed them, with a note written on a postal card. It read: Colonel Roosevelt: I sincerely de sire your complete recovery Now that you pre lying on a bed of pain, re member the Almighty God and how easy it is to disappear from the earth. After this remember vour greatest of fense in your official career the rob bery of Panama from Colombia. Try to remedy this iniquity and God will protect you." The detectives said Moli-v. was not armed. Molina said he came from New Or leans especially to see the colonel as soon as he heard of the shooting. He j said he followed him in th west dur ing his last speaking tour from Texas to California. "I have hurried from New Orleans on the expectation cf being able to express to you personal! my sympa thy in your misfortune. The privi lege, however, has been denied me. Nevertheless, I would likj to convey o you the sentiment of the noblest people in South America and to inform you .colonel, that a time lias come for your meditation on t'.e -lackest spot in the history of your life.

ARE COMING BACK. ffVmt?Tn1 1 -rim Pare 1. cefsful struggle for the nation's life. Then it was sa'd by hostile critics that the ship of state was drifting. It drift edyes. with Lincoln at the helm from the reefs of secession and slavery into the. placid waters of union and l' jerty. "Under Lincoln's successors it ha3 sailed on, propelled by the winds of prosperity, save when its voyage has betr halted by just such a visitation of storm and stress, of torn proter;:ion sails and broken business bulkhead 1, as we are now threatened with, sh uld Baltimore supplant Chicago, which it did not in 1860, and will not in 1912. "Our friends, the enemy, say the Democracy has learned its mistakes arc! does not mean to repeat them. In some measures true as to the past, xm the Republican party has had a diffi cult, if unsuccessful task in teaching the democracy its mistakes, so far as it has been taught: but somehow tl?. obstinate pupil comes forward ever- four years to be taught again. "I am glad to say, however, that many Democrats have learned their lexson well and are refusing to leave the firm ground of prosperity for the quag mire of business disruption, trade de pression and commercial and industrial depletion. From all parts of the coua try assurances are coming that Demo crats intend to vote for the RepuM'can candidates and a continuance of pros perous business conditions and against the programs of economic confusion and socialistic subversion of our institutions supported by the Democratic candi dates and their allies. Democratic workingmen refuse to be led from the factory and good wages of 1912 back to the Democratic hard tim?s ot isj-(. xney prerer indepenacnce and money in the saving bank to los of employment and dependence on charity. Where We Are Drifting-. "Democratic business men feel the same way. They know that when in dustries languish their business lan guishes, too. The pay envelopes are the feeders of trade in every form. When they are empty or scrimpy the biggest department store feels the ef fect, as well as the corner grocery. "Drifting, well let me glance at some of the dirft. Our home mar ket has drifted from $7,000,000,000 in 1870 to $33,000,000,000 a bad drift, that. And it is this magnificent home market without equal in the past or present, that the Democrats propose to dismember and disorgan ize and invite every nation in the world to prey upon, while those same nations keep the barriers to their own markets just as high as they please. "Then look at our foreign trade. A favorite Democratic argument is that j Republicans build up and cultivate the home market at the expense of our foreign commerce, when the fact is that the growth of foreign trade has almost kept proportionate pace J with the domestic from $1,000,000,- 000 in 1870 to $4,000,000,000 in 1912. j "Our exports for the last year amounted to $2,170,319,328, of which $674,302,903 were manufactures ready for consumption, the largest export trad and the largest proportion of manufactures ready for consumption the country has ever known. "The American manufacturer and the American worker would not have much spirit left for invading the for eign market if deprived by a Demo cratic 'tariff for revenue only of the best market of all, more than equal in purchasing power to all Europe, the home market which they now con trol, thanks to the Republican pro tective tariff. "And this unprecedented growth of our foreign trade is accompanied by expansion as unprecedented in our home trade from one end of the coun- to the other. It is not a sudden inflation, but a gradual advance under favorable conditions from the prostra tion of 1907 to prosperity as substan tial as it is general. All industries are humming and there is work at good wages, princely compared with wages abroad for all who are willing to work, while in the Pittsburg dis trict alone I understand there is a demand for at least 30,000 workers in excess of the number available. Business Is Active. "Business, wholesale and retail, is active and profitable, for the people have money with which to buy. The question for the American voter is whether this condition shall continue and the nation shall go for ward to even greater prosperity. The farmers are enjoying the greatest prosperity in the experience of American agriculture. Every day the Northern Pacific 13 carrying a million bushels of grain to Duluth. The yield in that zone alone is 157, 000,000 bushels, so that the convey ance by the railway of the farmers' grain through the regions tributary to that point of distribution will re quire 157 days. This vast crop is worth in excess of $100,000,000 to the farmers producing it. At present the steel industry, com monly regarded as the barometer of business, is driven to its utmost ca pacity, with orders far ahead for steel rails. Other industries are equally ac tive and altogether national condi tions and prospects were never so prosperous and promising, provided the American people decide to apply to their political choice the sanio good Judgment and prudent foresight which they apply, as a rule, to their personal affairs. "As we come nearer to the day of election it is to be expected that the intelligent voter will appreciate more keenly the responsibility which at taches to his ballot. In national elec tions at least the great majority like to feel that they are voting for a can didate who has a chance of success. It is obvious that either the Repub lican or the Democratic nominees will be elected, and not to vote for the Republican candidates is in effect to support their Democratic opponents, and the Democratic platform of a tariff for revenue only,' freighted with dire consequences for the country, now busy and prosperous under Republi can rule. Does Not Expect to Win. "It is well known to everyone, an open secret on every street corner, that the third term party does not ex pect success. A special correspondent of the New York Evening Post writing from Chicarro, says: 'It may be said that neither Col. Roosevelt nor any of the experienced politicians who surround him expect to carry Illinois or any other important state, with the possible exception of California and Kansas. From sources close to the candidate it is learned that Col. Roosevelt will be satisfied if he can complete the demoralization of the Republican party.' "It remains to be seen how many Republicans are willing to assist in completing the demoralization of the Republican party and handing the reins of government over to the Dem ocrats, to gratify mere desire for re venge. I believe that the Republican party will be found, as a whole, too patriotic, too loyal to its principles and its traditions, too just in its atti tude toward public servants, whom it has entrusted with duties faithfully performed, to commit hara kiri in the form and for the objects indicated. "Every mail brings assurances that those who have strayed are returning to the fold and that in every state in which the Republican party is not disfranchised, old time majorities will be rolled up for the Republican candidates-" Butter and Egjts.

December It was Morris, ;the fleet and heady left half on the Topeka high school team who put his team within strik ing distance of victory in the contest with St. Joseph Saturday. Intercept ing a forward pass in the third quar ter, after the Joseys had begun what seemed like a steady march to the lo cal goal, he ran 75 yards with the ball. Glass, on the next play, was sent over for a touchdown, the first score of the game. Later the Tope kas got the ball and worked it, by a series of passes and end runs to with in SO yards of the visitors' goal where Willard booted it across the posts. The score wag 9 to 0. The result compared with' the showing made against Bur lington three weeks ago, shows what Pete Heil has accomplished in the way of training the city's youth to plav football. the kind of football played Saturday would have won over Burlington without trouble. Every man on the local team starred at some time in the game. Morris, the plucky chap who startsl his team on the victory path, was a star. So was Willard, Glass and Mc Spadden. Hoatson was very much in evidence throughout the contest. Steward and Lux frequently tore through the St. Joe line and nailed the runner before he had moved half a dozen steps. Shannon played good football and" for that matter so did every member of the team. You can read their names in the lineup so there is no need to mention them here. The team is a great improvement in every way over anything that haa repre sented the local school lately. The game opened in see-saw fash ion, the first half passing without a score. In this half the Josies fought hard although they had the ball in their possession less as the half advanced. In the second half the gruelling work Heil has given his youngsters was ap parent as they were fresh apparently, while the visitors were plainly tired. In the last quarter with the game safely stowed away the locals resortel to punting but were making their way toward the visitors' goal when the whistle blew. The locals showed great improve ment in getting down the field un der punts and in interference. A cou ple of weeks more spent in training them to defend the man with the ball should make a great scoring machine out of the local team. The players are at last learning to get into the dirt on their tackles, there being less tackling around the neck and waist than formerly. And Hell has taught his men the use of the stiff arm. Scarcely an advance with the ball when from one to three visitors did not fail at tackling through this means of defense. Penalties marred the game, the To peka team suffering the largest num ber of five yard impositions. Both teams were so eager that they were offside on nearly every play. As the visitors tired they became leas eager and consequently were not off side o much. This gave the crowd the Idea that Barney Reilly, who refereed, was favoring the visitors. Of course there's about as much chance for Barney Reilly to give the Topekas a crooked deal as there is for the high school to heat Yale. But the crowd knew more football, it decided, than Barney and had its say. If the high school team improves in the next tluee weeks as it has in the past some one had better look out for th championship honors in this neck of the woods. Right now the play ers look like they had a chance at anything if they go on improving. The lineup follows: St. Joseph. Posi. Topeka. Riley .L. E Reese Hicks L. T. Hoatson Gore, Schroeder.L.

By that I mean life after the day's work was finished. "Now, however, it has all beea changed and the exodus is from the cities back to the farm." "Kow do you account for this change?" I asked.

Mo., Oct. 21. The heavy "Washburn college team handed Wil liam Jewell its first defeat of the season here by the score of 7 to 0. The score was made after two min utes of play by Lowe after several j long end runs and line bucks. After the touchdown was made the Jewells braced and played an even game with their opponents. They twice had the ball inside the 5-yard line. The Jew ells only chance to score came in the third quarter after long runs by Bag by and Magill. Old style football was used by each side. Washburn's gains were made chiefly by Lowe and Smi v. Moorman. Bagley, Magill and Holmes were the stars for the home team. The forward pass was usea successfully by Washburn twice, once for ten and once for fifteen yards. Although defeated. Coach Roberts was pleased with his team's showing. The lineup Jewell. Position.

Neither team scored in the second quarter but Missouri forced most of the playing, having the ball in Ames' half, took the ball from his 20 yard line for an end run of 75 yards and was shoved out of bounds by Knobel, Missouri's light halfback. Ames lost its chance to score when a forward pass failed. Missouri punted 30 yards as the quarter ended. In the third quarter Ames, by line plays, reached the 20 yard line and then scored a touchdown by a forward pasf. Ames missed the punt out. On a punt the ball bounded against a Missouri man and Brenner snapped the ball and ran 20 yards for a touch down. Vincent kicked the goal.

The Col lege of Emporia defeated Baker here by a score of 27 to 0. The winning team played one of the very fastest games which has ever been witnessed on the football field here. Schabinger, the fast quarterback of the Emporia team played a star game, working his team with great skill and using the forward pass with sure gains every time. The Emporia team fumbled con siderably but used a variety of plays In such rapid succession that they played their opponents off their feet. Zabel, at fullback for Baker, played a star game and prevented his opponents from piling up the score by several more touchdowns. He left the game in the last five minutes of play with a wrenched knee. Baker held a good line but were unable to get away with their plays with any speed. Several times Baker was within five yards of the goal but were unable to push the ball over for a score. In the last five minutes of play, Baker tried for a safety but the pass was incomplete.

Kansas' hope for an all-victorious season went glimmer ing here when Drake won a 6 to 0 victory over the Jayhawkers. This is the first time that Drake ever defeated Kansas. Drake's score came in the first part of the fourth quarter after a successful for ward pass by Simons, which netted fif teen yards and put the ball on K. U.'s 35 yard line. Simons then eluded the Kan sas tacklers and went to the 10-yard line. The Jayhawkers fought desperately but could not keep Bunz's smashing attack which placed the oval within three yards of the Kansas goal. On the next play Bunz circled right end for the only score of the game and a well-earned victory for his team. The kick-out failed so goal was not kicked. The Jayhawkers met their equal in every department of the game and were excelled m punting and forward passes. Simons classic toe booted the ball long and far and in a great measure was responsible for the play staying in Kansas territory in all parts of the game except the second quarter, when Mosse s men took a brace and worked the ball to Drake's 10-yard line, only to lose it when Parker failed to dropkick. This was the nearest K. U. ever got to Drake's goal. In the first quarter Drake rushed the ball down the field before the Jayhawkers could get their breath. A poor forward pass, however, saved Kansas from being scored on in this period. Crimson and blue fighting spirit showed itself in the second period and Detwiler, Rambo and Price smashed the 159-pound bull dog line for the only goal gains made by Kan sas. Open football characterized the Drake playing while Kansas tried to smash the line. Kansas did not gain a yard on for ward passes but the clever Simons made fifty yards for his team by successful flips. Both teams were penalized repeatedly, K. U. suffering for 100 yards to Drake's 95. Three thousand persons witnessed the struggle. The lineup: Kansas. Position. Drake. Brownlee (C.)

In the opening period of the contest the Normals played evenly with the Ag gies, even had a slight advantage. But in the remainder of the game the vis itors were constantly on the defensive. The Normals were unable to withstand the terrific line smashing of the Low man eleven. Prather and Holmes swept up the field again and again on hard line smashing, strewing .Normals in their wake. The score was 2 3 to 7. The Aggies scored three touch downs, kicked two of the goals, and counted a safety; Quarterback Hill at tempted an end run when the Nor mals gained possession of the ball under the shadow of their own goal, but was thrown back across his own goal line, and the Aggies chalked up two extra points that might have bean avoided if the teachers' general had used some headwork. The Normals scored in the final quarter. The Ag gies, by a series of line smashes, had advanced the ball to within a yard of the Normal goal line. In the attempt to push the ball across the Aggies fumbled a pass, and Breneman right end for the Normals, grabbed the loose oval and sped down the field, which was the spectacular event of thc game, outdistancing all pursuers. It was a great run and a. mighty lucky one. Outside of the one chance, tlm teachers' were fighting on the defen sive all the time. No New Plays Shown. The line smashing of Holmes, Prather and Loomis was a big feature of the game. They went down the field for gains that went for all the way from five to twenty-five yard?. The Aggies used old style football sticking to a few tried formations and not opening up with any new plays. Toward the latter part of the game Coach Lowman sent in subs to take the place of his regulars, and saved some of his best men for the game against Mosse's Jayhawkers next Sat urday. Pollom and Simms played great games for the Aggies. Enns showed up well. Prather easily out kicked his opponent, although not booting the ball in his best form. White was the brightest star in the Normal firmament. He played well on the offensive and nailed Aggies several times that almost had broken away from the mass of players. The Normal showed considerable speed, but they were unable to use the for ward pass, failing in the six times they attempted It. The Aggies mafla three trys none of which were suc cessful. James, at end for the Teach ers, played well. Colgrove spilled plays behind the line to the sorrow of the Aggies. The Aggies finished the game with out crippling the players. In the game with K. U. every available man will be needed, and the crippled condition of the squad since the Nebraska game made further accidents things to be greatly feared. FOOTBALL RESULTS.

Runs Columbia, Mo., Oct. 21. Ames, by clever use of the forward pass and by sensational end runs, scored 29 points while the Missouri Staie University team was unable to taliy or.e. The work of Captain Hurst for the Iowa aggregation aided in the scoring and his end run of 50 yards just a min ute before the final whistle, was a brilliant feat. Missouri outplayed Ames in the first quarter and had the ball in the oppo sition's territory most of the time. In the period Ames scored two points on Chester Milton Will Try His Spit Ball in A. A. Once More. Kansas City, Oct. 21. Chester Mil ton Brandom, the heaver with the moist delivery, will be given another chance to make good with the Blues next season. Owner Tebeau said last night that he had signed Brandom to a 1913 contract and also paid him a month's salary for his work with the Topeka Western League club. Topeka offered to tike Brandom off Tebeau's hands in the middle of last season, but failed to carry out its promise and released the "Chicken" after he had -pitched fairly good ball for a couple of months. Tebeau is going to take the case to the national commis sion and fight it out with the Kansas club. If the baseball judges give their decision in favor of Kansas City Te baeu will get the money back he paid Brandom for his last month's work in the Western League. Southwestern Beats St. Mary's.

Princeton Swamp Syracuse. Princeton, N. J., Oct. 21. Prince ton completely outclassed Syracuse here and when the slaughter was over had piled- up 62 points to none. It was again a case of the visitors' weak ness rather than the "Tigers" con certed strength which was responsibla for the size of the score. The threa sets of backfield men which Prince ton used had all sorts of speed and power, with the result that they tore through the Syracuse line as if it were paper, and circled the ends at will. Syracuse got the ball within Princeton's 30-yard line once or twice. but lost opportunities to score on poor attempts at Held goats. Yale Defeats Army. west .foint, Oct. 21. After two successive years of defeat. Tale re gained ner football supremacy over West Point in a fiercely fought gamo nere by a score of 6 to 0. The touch down came at the opening of the sec ond period after the Tale offense had torn through the army team to the 9- yard line at the close of the first Der iod. After the rest three Tale rushes brought the touchdown Philbin failed at the goal. The Tale team was the superior of the West Point eleven In all departments of the game but er rors of the blues prevented the Elis from rolling up double figures. Both teams clung largely to the oldfashion ed type of football but West Point was successful in three forward passes and Yale made four completed passes. Iowa Defeated by Chicago. nicago, Oct, 21. In a spectacular game the University of Chicago foot- oau piayers aeieated the Iowa eleven 34 to 14. The victory eliminates the wawkeyes from the race for the "big nine- cnampionsnip. For three per iods, the Iowans threw a scare into the maroons when they led with a score of 14 to 13, but Chicago was strengthened with fresh players and as a result took the lead in the last quarter and never was headed. The maroon backs plowed through the line for big gains in the final period, scor ing three touchdowns. The game was hard fought for three periods. Then in the final session the maroons play ed rings around their opponents. The Hawkeyes, however, put up fine foot ball. mini Beats Indiana. Champaign, 111., Oct. 21. Hinois defeated Indiana by 13 to 7. The Hoosiers could not gain consistently through, the Orange and Blue line, al though they outweighed their oppon ents 10 pounds to the man. The sec ond quarter was the) only- period in which the Illini were forced to give ground to the red and white. In this period Indiana put the ball across the line by three successful forward passes. Illinois gained almost twice as much ground by the use of end runs and off tackle smashes. In the third and fourth quarters the Illinl smothered their opponents and scored twice. Penalties Help Gophers Win. Minneapolis. Minm.. Oct. 21 T downs by McAlmon, Minnesota's left half one of which was made on an intercepted forward pass after a brilliant 95-yard run and a goal kickd by Quarterback Tollef- son, spells the score of 13 to 9 by which the University of Minnesota football eleven defeated Coach Stiehm's Nebraska Cornhuskers. Three times was Minne sota's goal endangered, but each time the Gophers braced and their opponents failed to score. From the first Minnesota's brilliant at tack proved a puzzle to the Nebraskans. Using the famous "Minnesota shift Erdall, Tollefson and McAlmon, especially the latter, slipped through the Nebraska line for steady gains, and made first down time and again. Most of the time Ne braska obtained the ball on fumbles and then Purdy would gain ground for his team by his snappy end runs and clever handling of the forward pass. It was not until the third quarter that Minnesota scored, after making a last stand on its 5-yard line and obtaining the ball on downs. With Minnesota march ing steadily down the field. Nebraska was frequently penalized on the 20-yara line 15 yards for holding. After two at tempts, McAlmon put the ball over through right tackle. Tollefson failed to kick goal. In the last five minutes of play of the last quarter, with Nebraska trying its best to put the ball over from Minnesota's fi-yard line, McAlmon intercepted a for ward pass and with the sneedv Rn vmno.l giving interference, ran the 95 vards for the second touchdown. Tollefson kicke i goal and the Nebraskans were unable to gain ground in the few remaining mo ments o play. Lunch time? Not yet! Don t lunch because your watch says so.

Adv. 5c smZ.e Wichita, Oct. 21. Like Cervantes' renowned Don Quixote de la Manchn, whose brains went awry through hig reading so many tales of chivalry, Samuel Standsburg, aged 82, who was taken through Wichita by his family from Neodesha to be committed to an asylum, became a violent madman from studying the Bible and the "lit erature" of spiritualism, so his folks say. He was taken handcuffed to the sta tion to wait for the southbound train. It had required the combined efforts of his brothers, the trainmen and sev eral passengers on the train to over power the afflicted man, for he is of mighty build and husky for his age. In the local waiting room he begged piteously to be let go. and cursed his children for taking him away from the home of his sister, Mrs. Hugh Monro, where he had been staying the list two months and where his reading and reflections on spiritualism had de ranged his mind completely a fort night ago. He was very bitter toward his two sons particularly. He told his sister, "These are no friends of mine." Before leaving his sister's home ho had threatened their lives, and on the train he grew so violent in his efforts to escape that it was necessary to handcuff him. He started to crawl out of a car window while the train was running at full speed. Standsburg had been deepdly inter ested in spiritualism for a dozen years, growing moifi absorbed in it as time passed. When he came to visit hi3 sister in Neodesha he was rational up on all matters except religion. Ha began reading spiritualistic books with particular zest. He interpreted the Bible more and more from the spiritualistic angle. He had visions and communicated with dead members of his family and his friends, his relatives said. He also talked confidently with angels and devils. Hauls Apples in Auto. Chanute, Kan., Oct. 21. W. W. Kaney. a wealthy oil well contractor, uses his motor car as a "hand" on his 20-acre ap ple orchard near here. When harvest time came Kaney turned his fihorsepower touring car into an apple freighter. When that became too small for the demands made upon it by the five thousand bush els of Jonathans he got a low wheeled trailer and coupled it on behind the car Last summer, when the ground became dry and hard, the oil man hitched the car to a disc and cultivated the orchard in six hours. Kaney says he can d!ac nfty acres a day in an open field. HARD WIN'TKR KILLED GAME. Rabbits and Quail Are Hard to Find This Year. Leavenworth, Kan., Oct. 21. Ac cording to Deputy Game Warden C. J. Mittelbach there Is a scarctty of rab bits and quail this year. Mittelbach asserted that he has made several trips to the country of late, and has seen but few rabbits. Last year there was not an abund ance of quail, but this year that va riety of game will be even more dim cult to bag. The scarcity of quail is attributed to the severe winter, many of the birds dying from exposure and inability to get food. The quail is a very frail bird and cannot endure se vere weather conditions.

The wheat belt of central and western Kansas is a carpet of dark green. Having just harvested one of the biggest wheat crops in its history, the Kansas wheat belt is now looking for ward to another magnificent crop. The wheat is coming up in a thick mat, vigorous and healthy, with the ground full of moisture, and the wheat going into winter in prime condition. According to reports from through out the wheat country there is a larger acreage sown this fall than a year ago. Even in counties where there is a shortage of horses, there will be a full acreage of wheat reported, thanks to generous work of neighbors, the use of tractors and overtime work by those who had horses spared.

But what Mr. McCormick says doesn't cut much ice in Kansas. He made a speech hce once. Ducks are reported to have not the slightest chance for their lives with hunters who go after them in aero planes. But if -this kind of hunting becomes general it is probable that fully as many aviator-hunters will fall to their deaths as ducks. There has been a big decrease in the ruimber of divorce petitions filed !n The?e parts recently, as compared with those filed in the summer months. In c-.htr words, a meal ticket and a place to keep warm during the winter season arc not without their attractions, even if married life is not all that It 'was sup To?.ed to be. Statistics compiled by government officials show that the political unrest hasn't affected foreign business this year. This is only more evidence that.) the business men of -this and other countries are growing wiser as they grow older. They are estimating the Vulk of the politicians at their true value as jckes. In a variety of ways, the presiden tial campaign is likely to suffer con siderably because of the hostilities between the Balkan states and Tur key. All of the famous war corre spondents in this country are prob ably rushing on their way to the Black Mountain. No European war can be staged successfully without their as sistance and advice. John Schrank is evidently bent on getting at least a pound of flesh. He claims the bullet in Colonel Roose velt's chest as his personal property and proposes to dispose of it in his will to a historical society. Thus, if his will is administered it will be necessary to cut the bullet from its resting place. However, the last will and testament of a crazy man hasn't much standing in court. Governor Wil3on is apparently not in close touch with the Democratic party concerning the tariff. He now says that the Democratic party does not approve free trade or .anything that approaches free trade. It proposes merely a re cc ns-ideration of the tariff schedules jtuch as will adjust them to the actual business conditions and interests of tire country. If this is so that practi fally eliminates the tariff as one of tli bfff- issues of the campaign. Such is tiie program of President Taft and aiso of Colonel Roosevelt, except that they would bring about the revision in a scientific manner through (he investi gations of a tariff board or commis sion. There being no law that will permit the UFe of voting machines at elections in this state, one of the first acts of the next legislature should be to pro vide one. "Wherever voting machines have been tried they have proven to be entirely satisfactory, and the peo ple wouldn't hear of changing back to the old and cumbe ome methods of voting that prevail in wide-awake Kansas. Not the least redeeming fea ture of the voting machine is the facility with which the results of a day's voting are counted. The count is automatically made and is complete when the last vote of the 'lay is cast. Under present conditions it takes from 24 to 36 hours to count the compli cated and extensive ballots, now. in FALL DAYS OX THE FARM.

That ham, as a case in point, was not cured and smoked with a thousand other hams of unknown lineage. It grew there, on the home place, and father and mother and the children, possibly, knew it by name this ham and its partner, all through its rooting and pasturing days. And when hog-killin' time came 'round didn't the whole family turn out and see the start? Didn't father and the boys get up a little earlier than usual which surely is going some to get the fire built under the stones? How about the head cheese and the sausage that fol lowed, last winter? And the wheat cakes that belong with every self-respecting hog-killin' time? Aren't these memories worth while? Well, rather.

STlXtLXVG THE ROOSTER'S CROW. Burbank, the wizard of fruits and flowers and all things growing, de serves well of his countrymen. Th things he has done e in the way or Weekly Record: Sunday brought a re- wont to utter warnings against the se l.i.i.h k. turn of real summer weather around auctions of ambitions which might legislative Kma ou- tv, u i, lack the necessarv concomitant of grafting not the that of horticulture have added to the pleasure of nations in the eatins line. The things he intends to do wedding the ice-plant to the milk weed and then grafting a tiny bit ot the vanilla bean, so that every family with an 8 by 10 garden patch, or even the ordinary window box, can have full flavored ice cream, winter oi summer will make him more of a popular hero. Still, with these present and pros pective honors Burbank cannot lay claim to all the gratitude of his fel low citizens. A slice a big slice must go to A. J. Wienland, a retired chemist of Santa Monica, Cal., for his epoch-making discovery. Burbank took the seeds from fruit and vegetables; Wienland claims to have taken the morning crow out of t chanticleer. His plan follows his for- mer occupation and Is medicatet In stead of murderous. He doesn't ex tract the crow by wringing the roost er's neck or by some wonderful gal linaceous surgery. He Just gives the bird a dose of the dope he has con cocted and, lo, no more of the early- morning call, or as Rostand, the French dramatist, poetized it, in "Chantecler," his barnyard drama, the invocation to the sun. While keeping the secret of his dis covery safe hid within his breast, Mr. Wienland has a neighborhood gener osity. All his friends in Santa Monica, they say, have been given samples of the decoction and the town now boasts that it is as quiet as Falling Waters in the good, old Rip Van Winkelian time. The dope is harmles, and if, as is probably the case, the inventor in tends to put his goods on the marker he should have a gold mine in his back yard for the rest of his life. Prosperity may make him unambi tious, but it does seem that a man who can do this crow-removing stunt should keep on his philanthropic la bors and concoct a medicine that wiil take the snore out of the slumber of the sleeping car pept, or the more common terror of the flat. It might be administered in his coffee, like the secret jag cures which lure good dol lars from humiliated but optimistic wive?. THE DANGER OF BLUE EVES. Any man knows whether he .Is tall or short, plump or thin, but it's a fair shot that, unless he is more of an observer than the average citizen, he can not tell the color of his eyes. And though he is a lover, married or sin gle, it is almost safe odds that the hue of the eyes of wife or sweetheart are as vague to him, though he has often celebrated their beauty, at one time or another. It behooves him, however, to learn the color of his own orbs. The other doesn't matter, except In a senti mental way. But if a man, looking In the glass, discovers that he has blue eyes, then he has cause to be fearful. And if, in addition, he is large, fat and married he can mark up his batting average of uneasiness to 1,000 right away. To be black-eyed, thin and marriage-free will give him a far better chance to escape Jury duty than the blue-eyed, fat husband, if the court tactics of Lawyer Mclntyre. who has i 1 1 ,1 1 MraA man I "aiieiisuiB otrnmij ua.in.-cjc ..ln,,tt t, it will adoot the

Mclntyre tactics, .aicmiyre accepieu without protest, every man who had blue eyes, and was fat and married, He explained his choice in this way: i Blue-eyed men are thinkers. They can weigh and analyze evidence and nurse a grudge against tne worm De- cause of their stature and they pay it off every chance tney can get. j And, finally, he prefers married men because their wedded life has taught them seriousness and responsibility, so that they will feel the weight of their position better than a flitter- j gibbet bachelor. Soft soots are not so common hearts as they are in heads. Among the unusually polite people are those with axes to grind. It takes a particularly wise man to separate tne good aavice irom uw bad. Wouldn't this be a monotonous old world if everybody was in agreement on every proposition? This is also the season of the year when women with new furs will wear them no matter how warm the day is. JAYHAWKER JOTS Some people borrow trouble, ob serves the Alma Signal, and some buy it outright. It's a good idea, thinks the Hering- ton Times, to search yourself before criticising others. Says Uncle Si, in the the Ottawa RepubHc: No matter how lopsided a feller's face may be, his nose is bound to be the scenter. A Manhattan store offers to give away a lady's $50 hat, notes the Alma Signal, and it adds with fine scorn: There is no such thing as a hat wortn $50. This is a free country and every one has a right to his opinions, says the Gridley Light, but it is not neces- sary to force other folks to listen to j -hem.

There will probably be a rush on the part of Republican county and legislative candidates to declare their presidential preferences before long, on account of the following which ap peared recently in the Ottawa Repub lic: Reward The Republic will pay a reward of 25 cents to any Republi can county or legislative candidate who will publicly state through these columns whom he is supporting for president. Surely this offer should bring a number of responses. GLOBE SIGHTS BT TB ATCHISON OLOBB. Carelessness causes more of your trou ble than hard luck. What Link Preston really wants is a prosperity that will permit drones to thrive. An optimist finds some consolation in the fact that, if he could get what he wants, he might not want it. More voting is done on the strength of prejudice than on careful investigation of the issues at stake. There are various ways of learning economy, although working one's way through school probably Is the most ef fective. There is a temperance lecture reflected in the barkeep's diamond, but those as sembled so often are in poor conditioti lor reading. About the only way the average man can determine whether his suit is all wool or not is by the price he pays. Even then it is no cinch. Savages wore necklaces, as the women flo now, but those bold barbarians never dug: up any form of torture like the linen collar with a ripsaw edge. A noted offensive athlete was asked wnat to do, if held up by a highway man. "Do what he tells you, and apolo gise for not having more to give," was the wise answer. One can tell an ugly woman she is In teresting." or "fascinating," and get by as well as by praising her personal pulchritude, and sometimes more truth fully, but not always. When a blooming young girl of eighteen tells of her method of facial massage, somehow it doesn't cause a woman, who is on the seamy side of forty-five to build any great hopes on what it will do for her. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. From the Chicago News.l The hinges of true friendship never rust. Don't spare the rod if you expect to get any fish. The man who invests in green goods must want money bad. Many a bewhiskered man has been known to tell barefaced lies. A woman always suspects another wom an who never sheds tears. It's an easy matter to forgive those who trespass against others. A woman's second thoughts are nearly always the most unsatisfactory. There is always more or less prejudice against a man holding on office. A man isn't far from right when he's n-; 1 1 1 .1 rr n nrtmit t h f hft Is in the wrone. If a man doesn't know how to make I love to a widow she knows how to teac.i him. And every man who owns a dog thinks the animal has more sense than his neighbor. A girl knows a lot of things she doesn't want a certain young man to know that she knows. Notwithstanding all the arguments that have iaken place, few disputed questions have been settled. When a girl tells a young man that he mav have a kiss if he can catch her ahe invariably manages' to get caught. t JOURNAL ENTRIES In RY THE WAY BY EaRTBT FAJUKUM.

There is one extenuating circum. stance connected with the result of the Congressional investigation which shows that it cost over $2,300,000 to put Roosevelt over in 1904. The list shows that T. R. paid $5,000 of it him self. J. M. Barrie is now living a life of se clusion in Amhuinnsuidh castle. That's about the only kind of a life one could live there, as no nn rniilri remember live there, as no one could remember the address. It is a poor game that won't work both ways. Maybe that's what the K. C. taxi passenger was thinking when he held up and robbed the driver. But as he got but $1'J.40, it is evi dent that he trimmed the taxi man too early in the evening. The evidence would indicate that It was that driv er's second trip. The State Board of Medical registra tion put a magnetic healer in bad, but up to date, no board has succeeded in getting the angora of the ward heeler. The woman who has a few pe.s around the houso enjoys a trip away from home much more than does the woman who has no pet but a husband. The man who has to water a pair of gold fish and launder a poodle dog can not get very far from home in the absence of his wife and she knows it. "That might is right" is a mistake when applied to butter. SAYS UNCLE GAV Trust your ambitions. For every man who has made himself a con spicuous dunce through the pursuit of ill-founded aspirations a thousand have failed for want of such spur. There is no choice in this matter. Not until you have devoted a life time's effort to the accomplishment of some high purpose can you tell to a eerainty whether there is genius be- hind your ambitions or merely pride -moreover, wnen pnue puis enougn stesm into your mental and physical activities, it becomes genius. For seiaus, after all, is courage, persis tence and concentration. These quali ties attain mastery, and he who is master of men or his art or his bus! ness wo call a genius. There is no bet- ter definition and none mjre fraught with hope for the climber. So wise a man- as Emerson lack the necessary concomitant of ffeniUS.

The greatest things in the world have been seemingly impossible the work cf men whose aspirations were apparently absurd.

A diminutive, ill-favored, unpopular, obscure Corsican became emperor of France and master of Europe. The glory cf Greece is the name of a blind linger.

"If you could get the captain to stay with him for a while, he'd see." ''I can," she cried.

Prudence left for her aunt's, and the captain went gaily to make his visit. "It will be a change for he." he said, crenial ly to Richard Judd, who carried his bag up tho hill for him.

Of course, after you've been to Ben's you 11 turn up your nose at such plain food, but, anyhow, you're always welcome." They shook hands and the captain waved "good-bye" from the steps. "I wish you had Ben's money," he said, regretfully. "I think Prudence likes you better' n she does Ben. But she's got to marry a man that's savin'." A week later a haggard face peered into the little windows of the cabin of Richard's schooner. "Can I come in?" was the question put by the captain as Richard ap peared on deck. "Sure," shouted Richard, "it's Just dinner time, and I've got a chowder fit for a king." "I I smelled it," said the captain, "and I'm hungry, Richard: I've never been so hungry in my life." "No?" Richard looked his amaze ment. "Why, I thought you'd been visiting Bert Bassett." "I have," said the captain, "and don't you ever mention his name to me. He s tne stingiest wnite man in the whole world He bakes his beans i without pork says they are healthier that way just stews them so, and puts them in the oven. And he makes his codfish gravy with water, and he don't drink cream in his coffee, and as for pie I believe he begrudges the apples in them. O-oo-h," the captain drew a long breath as the fragrance of chowder was wafted up to him; "o-oo-ooh, that smells good!" "Come down and feed," said Rich ard succinctly, and the dinner that followed wa- a feast of harmony and happiness. When the captain finished, ne said: "Let's go up and smoke a pipe." On deck he announced, "You can have her, Richard. There's limits to sav ing." Just then on the rocks on the town side of the harbor, appeared a little figure Jn a gray coat and demure bonnet, who waved a beckoning hand. jHE EVENING STORY "It's Prudence," cried Richard; "I'll go and get her." When the young man reached the rocks, he Jumped out of his dory and caught Prudence's hands in his. "Your father is on my boat," he said, joyfully. "He's run away from Ben Bassett'B, and he says we can get married." Prudence sat-down suddenly on the rocks. "Gracious," she ejaculated, "I didn't think it would work as well as all that.

EVENING COAT BT B.BTH CUMKROK. Here is a problem in mathematics for every thoughtful American. If the present generation is in twice as much l of a hurry as the past generation, at what pace will the next generation travel? Now that the children have gone back to school, when I look out my study window, almost every morning I see at least two or three youngsters walking their little legs off, or actually running towards school. Thus early is the American habit of hurrying for every appointment in augurated. Thus early do I say? What am I thinking about? Accord ing to one letter friend our children are taught the hurrying habit as soon as they leave the cradle. "Please write something," she urges me, "about the way people try to make little chil dren keep up with their own longer strides. It makes me feel very sad to see a little toddler not more than two or three years old dragged along at a dog trot to keep up with some older person. I feel sure that the seeds of heart disease are sown in that way." I don't doubt it, my friend, and I also feel sure that these seeds are tended and watered by the hurrying to school habit, which careless par ents permit. In fact, I once came into contact with tragic proof of that fact. For a little girl whom I used to know ran all the way to school one hot after noon after a hearty noon-day meal, dropped into her scat, laid her head on the desk for the opening prayer and never lifted it again. Of course, such tragedies as that are mercifully rare, but even when it does not cause any Immediate calamity, the hurrying habit is sooner or later a trouble breeder, and we ought to teach our children to fight it. I suppose we hurry because we hoDe to accomplish more, to crowd more into our days, but if you will take notice you will find that the people who ac complish the most are those who never hurry. At a house where I once boarded, the 12-year-old daughter of the hostess did all the serving. Two grown women would undoubtedly have balked at her task, for there were sometimes 35 or 40 guests, but this wonderful little girl performed It gracefully and serenely. I used to watch her in wonder for she never carried more than two or three dishes at a time and she was not old enough to use the principles of scien tific management. The secret of her success was simply that she never hur ried and hence was never flurried, never lost time or poise.

Why don't some of these alleged re formers in Kansas get down to real reform and pass a law that the term of governor of Kansas shall be for four years without a consecutive or other subsequent term, with provision that the governor shall not participate in politics either in his own or other state and shall not run for other of fice while serving the people?

The extent to which foreign-born citizens will participate in the com ing presidential election may be in ferred from statistics of the census of 1910 Just publjsned. xhere were the country 6,646,817 foreign-born whlte males of voting age, and of those 3,034,117 had been naturalized. Some more have been naturalized since 1910, of course. Since not alt who are naturalized will vote, it is reasonable to assume that the total vote of the foreign-born next month will not exceed, and probably will not reach, 3,000,000. That number Is a very large proportion of the total electorate, however. Not quite 16, 000.000 votes were cast in the United States for president in 1908, although there were many stay-at-homes.

PENSIONING POETS. Mildly strenuous efforts are bein n.':de in America Just now to revive the love of poetry in the general readin? public. A prominent New York paper lecently carried on a lively contest for th? purpose of securing good original verse, while a. magazine bearing tho pimple title "Poetry" has launched its first number In Chicago and has bwn received with approval by the news papers at least. On the other hand, an English writer Inveighs against the civilization that spends many million dollars to build a dreadnought and Its such poets as Richard Middleton ami John Davidson die of psychological an'l physical starvation. According to lr; Frank Harries, the suicide of the p.e Middleton In Brussels last year and the oVmise of John Davidson, who also gave up life in disgust, is a national ais-fc-race. "I would rather lose a dread nought than aDivtdson or aMlddleton. he asserts. "It would be better to stone them than to starve them; better tint thrn this Ineffable, callous contempt. Tt is her best and her greatest whom Eng land persecutes; the second best and the third best and the fifth are lauded to the brazen skies." Versifiers in Eng land, as well as in America, will nod approval no matter how poor their pro ducts may seem to the readers. But it will be a long while before England or ony other nation ambitious to be class ed among the world's powers, refraln from laying down dreadnoughts in o--der to pension poets. After all, wh bhould a poet be pensioned any more, than any other creator of literature or-a.-t that gives pleasure to the multi tudes?

In an editorial in the Gazette. White views the Star's bolt of Capper in this language: Tie esteemed Kansas City Star is tne most independent paper in the worlii. Sometimes if leans backwards. It seems to be doing so in setting forth no distinc tion between Arthur Capper and Senator Hodges, as gubernatorial candidates. The Star maintains that as Capper is a pro gressive Republican and Hodges is a pro gressive Democrat, the Pressives have the choice between two good pro gresses which is true as far as it goes. But there is this to be added: Capper is a Republican who is supporting Roose velt; Hodges is a Democrat who is oppos ing Roosevelt. Hodges is appealing to the standpat Republicans and malignii g the work done by the Progressives in Kansas during the past eight years. Cap per is making his campaign upon tne record of Stubbs and the Progressives. Hodges is going about over the state, claiming that the record of Stubbs and the Progressives is a failure; and to do that, Hodges is clamoring about high taxes. To clamor about high taxes, when as a member of the ways and means coi.i mittee of the senate Hodges voted fcr every measure that has affected appro rriatior.s, is not fair, and does not fore Topeka Officials Believe "Safe ty" Is Here to Stay. TOPEKA SENT A BIG CROWD Largest Delegation Among 13, 000 Went From This City. Other Items of Interest in the Traffic World. In Topeka today railway officials of the Santa Fe and Rock Island, as well as 2,000 employees of both roads, are rehearsing the results of the union safety rally at Convention hall, Kan sas City, Saturday evening. It is felt that the first general meeting of rail road men for the promotion of "safety "first" has met with encouragement from all lines of railroad work. The campaign now will receive support and aid Santa Fe and Rock Island offi cials believe their safety bureaus will be far more influential. The rally at Kansas City attracted 13,000 railroad men from 13 different railroads. The Convention hall space allotted to the meeting- was jammed. Each railway was designated by a ban ner that hung over the delegation. It trolled car associations and deductions for ordinary depreciation were $12,- 28.000. This amount figures 10.35 per cent on the $120,000,000 of capital stock, and compares with 9.28 per cent in 1911 and 11.61 per cent in 1910. From the net earnings in the year recently ended, however, $2,000, C00 was deducted as a special reserve account. The number of cars controlled by the Pullman company is given as 6,229.

Hodges is the Democratic gubernatorial nominee a'1 1 tto Ftar has given him a clear title as a stnon pure Progressive. So an X mr.ri must go after Hodges' ..ame.

But wait. rSe Star said nothing at all about Frank L. Britton, Democratic nominee fo-lieutenant governor. Tour vote has bt-ei cast for Hodges, but is Britton, the Denocratic nominee for lieutenant eov ernr. or Sheffield Ingalls, the Repub licsi nominee, the real progressive? Of coirse you must stop a minute and thftk it over. Don't make any mis tale. laving decided this Britton-Ingnlls Trotter to your own liking, how about BWetary of state?

It is a rather trying Job isn't it and perhaps you are wishing you could delegate this responsibility to your wife? After you have gone this far down the ballot, of course you don't want to stop. There is the list of candi dates for state superintendent, for su perintendent of insurance, for state treasurer, for state printer. And. oh, yes, there are the candidates for as sociate Justices of the supreme court and someone must also be elected to congress. Of course, after you have started right you must be very, very careful about picking only tried, true and trusted Progressives. And how are you getting along. You must hur ry, too, because the polls close at 7 o'clock and the clerks and Judges are waiting outside the booth to count your vote. And perhafs. also, there are some other fellows who want to vote in your precinct also. But. wait. There is your county tick et. There are the candidates for the legislature. Of course, by this time, your ballot probably looks like a chart of a championship chess game, but it makes no difference. You are voting for progressives and this is an age of reform. So take your time and make the most of it. Col. Bill Sapp spent Sunday in To peka. That wasn't all. Col. Sapp "rent to church.

Capper has a progres sive record; he is supporting Roosevelt and is glorying in it. and demanding that the government we have established shall be maintained. That is the essen tial difference between the two men." EGG DIDNT HATCH Girl's Romance Is Shattered When Man Doesn't Arriye. Union Station Officials at Last Send Her Home. Kansas City, Oct. 21. A romance, starting from an address written on an ege, failed to hatch at the Union station, when pretty 18-year-old Katie Dunleavey, from a farm nine miles southwest of Olathe, Kansas, waited four hours in vain for Harry McFher son of St. Louis. The station officials wouldn't let her wait any longer. At 4 o'clock. MePherson hadn't appeared and Miss Dunleavey went back to her Kansas home. Miss Dunleavey said she became ac quainted with MePherson by writing ner name and address on an egg she marketed with others in Olathe weeks ago. MePherson. said to work in a St. Louis grocery store, found the egg and wrote to Miss Dunleavey. Other letters followed and then pic tures and confidences were exchanged. The fateful egg reached MePherson, said Miss Dunleavejv early in Septem ber, and a week ago he proposed to meet her Friday afternoon in the fnion station. Opposition by Miss Dunlenvey's parents prevented Me Pherson from visiting Olathe. The couple planned, after marriage, to return to Miss Dunleavey's home and ask f orgieness. There is no need to ask forgiveness now. NO REFER EX CE TO COIj, TITCS. Mayor Biflard Explains Economy I'lan.

"You see." Col. Sapp explained to The trouble is not with the management of the office in Topeka. but with the law, and the greatest expense is caused bv the law relating to the printing of ballots in connection with the office. The greatest objection I have is that the appointing of the commissioner of election rests with the governor instead of with the city.

The Santa Fe forces, 1,900 strong, left the two special trains and marched through Kansas City's business streets, headed by the Apprentice band. In the front tier was C. W. Kouns, general mana ger, who was assisted by three big policemen as a cowcatcher. When the Topeka crowd entered Convention hall, the crowd then num bering 10,000 yelled itself hoarse for "Topeka." Bis Topeka Delegation. Here is what the Kansas City Star said of the Topeka delegation: "The Santa Fe brought 3,800 of its em ployees to the meeting, most of them trom the Topeka shops. Two special trains arrived from Topeka at 7 o'clock and headed by a 40-piece band of shop employees the crowd marched from the Grand avenue station to Convention hai;. Every man wore a button on his coat bearing the words, 'Get the Safety Habit," and the anta Fe emblem. Ban ners were carried reading: "Not how fast or how cheap, but how safe.' 'Uet safety habit," and 'Caution and common sense mean safety.' "When the Topeka delegation entered the hall, already almost filled, their band playing and banners flying the assem blage gave them a great cheer of wel come." The railroads represented at the meet ing were: Santa Fe, Rock Island. Bur lington, Alton, Chicago Great Western, Frisco, Kansas City Belt, Kansas City Southern, Katy, Milwaukee, Missouri Pa cific, Union Pacific and Wabash. The Topeka delegation and the Santa re representatives occupied the main floor dirctly in front of the speakers' stand. Talks were given by C. W. Kouns, gen eral manager of the Santa Fe at Topeka; Ralph C. Richards, chairman of the cen tral safety committee of the Chicago Northwestern; W. T. Tyler, general man ager of the Frisco: W. A. Garrett vice president of the Chicago Great Western, and L. F. Shedd. safety supervisor of the Rock Island Lines. L. F. Shedd Illustrated his talk withi motion pictures, "Right and Wrong Way to Do Shop Work." These pictures were taken at the Rock Island yards in Chi cago by actors and experienced motion picture men. The evening's program ended with a moving picture drama, "The Workman's Lesson." It was posed f ar and acted out for the use in this safety rally. The music was furnished by the Topeka Apprentice band and the Apprentice Glee club of the Santa Fe shops here. Tne song written by J. D. M. Hamilton, claims attorney, "Rally "Round the- Safety Habit." made a great hit among the 13. 000 railroaders at the convention. Kouns Gives Reasons. In stating the reason for the safety rally C. W. Kouns, general manager of the Santa Fe at Topeka, said: "Representing in our several capacities the great railroads of the southwest, we are here tonight in one of the most im portant movements ever inaugurated. "We are going to confer together with a view of working out plans that will re duce the number of accidents resulting in injury or death. "Already this movement is well under way. Upon several of the roads definite plans are being followed, and most grati fying results have been obtained. "We wish to take advantage of the ex perience gained, and elarge upon it. The need is great. Every day more than twenty-five human lives are being taken, and 40 are Injured more or less serious ly. Records compiled show us that aoove 70 per cent or tne accidents proaucins the enormous number I have referred to are the result of carelessness on the part of the killed or injured themselves, or cf fellow workers. The next largest numcr are those who may be called 'Trespass ers. we may siarx wun mis uaaio, and at present, devote our energies to the device and application of preventive measures. "The very large numDer oi employees who are present with their families is the strongest evidence of the interest which this movement, and its purposes, have aroused.

XEff UXIOX PACIFIC EQUIPMENT Pacific and Mikado Engines Steel Cars With "Monitor" Roofs. The Union Pacific placed in service last month ten new "heavy Pacific type and ten Mikado type passenger engines, the former weighing 448,000 pounds and the latter 456,000 pounds. Each has 200 pounds boiler pressure, exerting a drawbar pull of 38,600 pounds and 51,075 pounds, respective ly. They embrace all modern appli ances, including electric headlight and superheater. Among other items of new passen ger equipment recently received are rwelve 69-foot combination mail and baggage cars; the mail apartment of vhich complies with all the recent re quirements of the railway postoffice department. These cars are built of fireproof material throughout and are designed for maximum strength and safety. In order to better carry out the idea of strength they are provided with semicircular roofs instead of the old style clear story or Monitor rcof. These cars could easily withstand the most severe collisions without material damage to the cars or their occupants. Following this equipment are six 60-foot all steel combination mail and passenger cars built along the same lines, and the same general designs, one end of which is occupied by the mail compartment while the other end accommodates passengers.

The fuss made ,'flver individual drinking; cups seema. excessive in view of the statement made at the recent hygienic congress in Washington that of seventy-five samples of "water taken from railway trains only a third were fit to drink. What one drinks is a good deal more important than what one drinks it out of, and infection from drinking cups is more m. matter of theory than of fact, says the Nebraska State Journal. It can be pretty well guarded against by the simple precau tion of rinsing the cup well and then drinking, not very elegantly but dis creetly, from the surface of the water instead of from the rim of the cup, But an unknown water supply is a much more serious risk, and the pru dent traveler learns to drink at a favorable opportunity and to go dry even at some discomfort when the supply seems dubious. For an ordi nary short Journey of a few hours water drinking is not so necessary as many people imagine, and greater care In this respect would materially cut down the typhoid rate. IS DANGEROUS WORK. Narrow Escape of Workman in Tak ing Down Old Edison Stack. The work of removing the old Edi son smokestack started this morning. Three nervy little men one an avia tor, another a famous steeplejack and the third the demonstrator of a new gas cutter, expect to remove the stack in five days. The crew consists of William Mason, a New York steeple jack, E. D. Blake, a Chicago aviator, and M. F. Malloy, operator of the ma chine which burns off chunks of met al faster than any saw could cut it. Mallory is demonstrator for the com pany that manufactures the new ma chine. He describes it as an "oxidric. acetone and acetylene' apparatus, which generates a heat 50 per cent greater than the heat in a melting cupola, and Is directed through a thin jet, upon the metal. He claims that the apparatus wil cut through a bur glar proof safe. The entire outfit. weighing with the three operators, about three tons, will be suspended inside of the stack. But, from the In spection made Surday, the experts have decided that they must remove the two top rings of the stack by hand, as they are so badly corroded and weak that they will not hold the heavy machinery. The power of the cutting machine is such that the men will work but six hours each day. The intense heat and brilliance of the cutting flame would blind the men if used longe. Blake, one of the machinists, nar rowly escaped death this morning. He was standin gon top of the stack when one of the blocks from which the heavy platform was being hoisted, slipped and fell. The jar shook the stack from top to base while the man was standing on top of the stack swayed and jugded lik a tight-rope walker, but kept his feet. The work men estimated the sway of the stack at 20 inches. H. E. Nathan Co. of Chicago, have the contract for removing the smoke stack, and are testing the high- power cuter operated by ilajloy.

6 THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOTXRWAI-OCTOBER .21, 1912 CORK LEG WINS EDBIE 6ILLE: WISCONSIN HERO Runner Threw It Across Plate, Scoring Run. Then Colorado Baseball Game Ends in Fight. Canfleld, Colo., Oct. 21. When Al bert Billings kicked his cork leg across the home plate yesterday afternoon in the ninth inr.rng, the score being al ready a 5 to 5 tie, the umpire called the runner safe. Then the last base ball game of the season broke up n a row. However, Umpire Jerry Car ter, consulted the rule book, declar ed that there was no precedent, and held to his decision. When the teams lined up for play, it was foun-i that one team was. shy a man. Billings, of the cork leg, unteered and the first thing he did was to knock a two bagger. He stole third, and started home when one of his teammates hit to shortstop. The I shortstop tossed the ball to the catch er, ten feet ahead of the runner, the cork leg flew off and crossed the p'ate. while the owner of the les dropped to the ground. The catcher stepped out and tagged the prone fig ure, but th? umpire was watching closely and ruled that the foot at the end of the cork touched the has?. The opposing team claimed that Billings was out because the catcher tagged him before he crossed the plate. WHEELBARROWRIDE. It Will Come Off When Bank Clerk Pays Bet.

President Murphy, of the Cubs, issued a statement last night which indicates that several new faces will be seen in the 1913 lineup as well as a new manager. He de clares the team lacks speed and the changes are to be -made with an idea of getting faster men on tne Dases ana who at the same lime can nit. Following is the statement In part "The public support baseball ai4 is entitled to know as much about it a3 can consistently be disclosed at au times. While the games are going on the limelierht should doubt.ess be on the nlavers and the contests that they take part in. Now that the season of 1912 has passed we all turn to 1913, and in doing that we want to know ii-hn will manage the Cubs. "On August 15, 1912, Frank Chance was asked about managing tne cuds in 1913. and he replied, 'I would rather not.' Intimates Cliance Is Old. "That of course eliminated him. A manager is desired who wants the Job some one who will enthuse over it. and not have to be forced to accept it. No one can succeed to a superlative degree without enthusiasm. He must like the task and not take the Job merely for the remuneration involved. When the season is over ne must oe champing on the bit like a young colt ith anxiety for the next campaign to begin. He must be full of optimism for the future and such a feeling should be infectious. In the history of every club a time arrives when reorganization is neces sary. Baseball thrives largely on sentiment, and the only way to create sentiment is to win games. No one cares who owns the ball club or who manages it so long as it wins games. but the fans who contribute to tne suDDort of the game are entitled io fast, aggressive baseball. Of course waning star has many friends out the memory of the public is fleeting, and a man who wears a uniform must make good at all times every minute he is in action. A club owner Is really a trustee, and his only safe plan is to speed things up when he realizes that some of his stars are slowing up. "Every club is limited to so many en and we must let waning stars go to replace them witn ienows x anu 20 years old who will improve witn experience. That comes under the fort unes of the game. It is a young man s sport. The following table on ngures (un official) tells better than any words I can employ what the West side team needs: Club 1912. Stolen bases. New York 304 Cincinnati 24o St. Louis l4 Pittsburg IT Brooklyn 1J Chicago 169 Philadelphia 159 .boston 135 Must Have More Speed "From the above it can be seen that the Cubs are tied for sixth posi tion in base running. This lack of speed on the bases will also be felt in fielding. Men who can't, run as fast on the bases as they did in former years naturally will not cover as much ground in fielding. An outfielder who has slowed up will not get a fly that passes him back to the infield as quickly as when he was at the zenith of his career, or an infielder will not stop a grounder that he could easily have handled when he had his speed. In modern baseball we must have speed. "The president of the United States finds it impossible to leave Washing ton when eongres is in session. The head of the United States army must have a furlough or leave of absence to be gone for an extended period. Then why should not the manager of a baseball club be on the Job all the year with the exception of a reason able period for rest and recreation? Competition is so keen for the ser vices of rising stars that a team is handicapped unless 'he ban-.:ger is con stantly on the job or in touch with the situation. The maanger of the modern major league club nowadays must be smart to cope with his com petitors, and as I have always pre ferred a playing manager to one on the bench, I expect to appoint one who will be in the game every day unless he Is prevented from playing tempor arily by accident or illness. More "Digs" at Chance. "The naming of the manager for 1913 is not due to indecision upon my part, but when I say he will have youth, intelligence and speed, that must suffice for the present. I hate to see Chance leave the managerial post after seven years, but when he said 'I would rather not,' I was com pelled to look elsewhere and proceed along different lines, which I havo done. It is true that Frank may have changed his mind since he told me that, but a manager's first qualifica tion. In my viewpoint, is to say Just what he means to the owner unless physical condition governs him. "Chance has worked so hard that his health has not been of the best, and if he retires from the game he will certainly carry my best wishes with him, because personally I rm very fond of him. There was never a more earnest, faithful playing mana ger In the game, and he leaves a high mark for his successor to aim at. The man I have decided upon does not know it yet, but he will in due timtr, j and then the public wll be taken Into the secret. I am sure the very men j tion of his name will be hailed with delight by the fans, because I dou'it If there Is a more popular player with j his fellows, the press and the public in tno iana. Chance Flays Murphy. Chicago, Oct. 21. Frank Chance, when told of Murphy's statement tn 'he Cub managerial situation, made the following warm reply to the own er of the Cubs: "Murphy is simply slapping at me in the newspapers without getting any where. He can't abuse me in the pa pers and get away with, it, and neither Oochems. Henry F. Cochems. Wisconsin Pro gressive leader, was on of th mn who helped down John Schrank, the would-be assassin of Colonel Roose velt at Milwaukee. Cochems Is a graduate of the University of Wiscon sin and of Harvard, and was a fa mous athlete while in college. He demonstrated that he still possesses some of his athletic prowess when he neipea jviartin, Roosevelt s stenog rapher, down and disarm Teddy's as sailant. can he do it to my face. He talks about the Cubs having no speed on the oases. l told him three years ago about that and wanted him to buy me some fast ball players, but he would not do It. He told me I had the great est ball club in the world and did not need any more men. Now he is roast ing the same players because they nave no speed. "I told him this year that I wanted to get Butler, the man who went to Pittsburg, as a speedy substitute in fielder. But he refused to pay the price for him. Butler Is going to be a great man and the Cubs might have had him. There May Be a Flaht. "If Murphy keeps up this tirade of abuse on me I'll not go to California this winter at all. I'll stay here and fight it out with him. My baseball record is an open book, while his is not. "I am willing to quit baseball for good. In fact. I want to quit. But Murphy can't make me quit, If that la what he Is trying to wo and I will show him that he can't. I don't be lieve he has picked out his new man ager, if he is going to get one at all." TO MEET IN TOPEKA. Methodist Temperance Society Board Comes This Week. One of the governing boards1 of the world-wide Methodist church Is to have its headquarters in Topeka. The last general conference decided that the Church Temperance society should secure offices in this city.

HE IS HOMESICK. Boy nt Police Station Wants to Home to Oakland, Cal. Go Homesickness and despair were never more manifest at the police- station than this morning while George Wil lis, a 16-year-ola boy was waiting tor the police to assist him in securing transportation to his home in Oakland, Cal. The boy left home two years ago and has been working as a Jockey since. He was under contract to a man he said was his brother-in-law. The man drew the boy's salary for mounts on the various tracks and refused to give the boy any money. He even failed to clothe Willis comforta bly and the lad ran away. He wants to go home. The boy, who claims to be near 17 years of age, is under sized. He has heen ridinsr thoroughbreds tor two years and has been subjected to hard training that he might keep down to riding weight. He had been living with his sister and his mother was clfiad. He was one of eleven homeless children until he was taken on the road by his brother-in-law, H. A. Cot ton. He "Was to Receive" Wages. Since leaving home the boy has ha3 mounts on all of the popular race courses of the country and Mexico. He said that he was supposed to be paid $25 per month and additional fee of $5 for riding a loser and $15 for rid ing a winner.. This money was paid to Cotton, he said, but the latter kept the money and the boy had to depend on "pick ups" for spending money. He was rag ged and showed that he had been liv ing a hard life. He has been spending the summer on tracks In Canada but i r-c""-' in Kentucky during the last few weeks. He ran away last week. He had $12 in money ana divided this with another "Jock" who was returning home under similar circumstances. He was sent to the police headquarters here by some officers who told him that the police would assist him in getting a ticket towards home. KNOX TO RETIRE. Will Not Serve the Government After March 4. Pittsburg, Oct. 21. Secretary Knox's personal organ, the Pittsburg Dis patch, in an authorized statement, an nounces that Mr. Knox will retire per manently from public life on March 4, no matter what the result of the election. "He will adhere to this determina tion," says the announcement, "unless a deadlock in the election of president or vice president should occur which would cause the duties of acting presi dent to devolve upon him until the deadlock is solved. Mr. Knox would not evade this responsibility, but if an election is secured on November 5, he will retire to private life with the present administration, after eleven years in the public service as senator and cabinet officer." Heard on the Sidewalk. "What's the matter, old man" "That confounded box office clerk had the cheek to offer me a back seat." "And you took affront, eh? "No., sir; I wouldn't take any."

The joists of the second floor of the new wing c f the Potwin school are being put in place. The work has been delayed somewhat on account of inability to get materials.

Washburn's victory over William Jewell Saturday has added more fuel to the fire of enthusiasm for a cham pionship team this year. The team now is preparing to down Ottawa at the Washburn yard Saturday. "Our school board has dismissed school for three days," says Superin tendent D. C. Porter of Concordia. "Our teachers will all go to Topeka. and the schcol board is planning to send a representative to the state j conference." i There was a heavy crop of walnuts this year and the small boys have taken advantage of this fact. They have been making excursions into the woods adjacent to Topeka and along the country roads. Many of the boys in the city schools have tell-tale hands. Superintendent James A. Ray of Marion says: "We had 8 5 teachers and fifteen school officers in attend ance at the State Teachers' associa tion last year. We expect to have a hundred teachers and many more school officers there this year No vember 7 and 8." A motion picture of Marshall's band was taken at Third and Kansas avenue Sunday. Topeka is famous for her moving picture scenes but all of them are taken with about the poor est background that can be found. Marshall's band should have been marching up town in the skyscraper district. The entire effect of Topeka's great white way from lower Kansas avenue is spoiled because of a scraggly elm tree on the west side of Kansas ave nue between Third and Fourth streets. This tree hides the entire line of lights above Fourth street. It should have been listed with the Western Union poles and cut down. "The Secret of Susanne," on opera by Wolf-Ferrari, which will be pre sented at the Auditorium a week from tonight by the Chicago Grand Opera company, is stated to be something unusually worth while. The perform ance is being given by the Topeka Ad club. The company carries a special orchestra of a high order.

Robert Gordon of the First Baptist church, took a stand against the showing of prize fight pictures in Topeka. The remarks were called forth because a local show house is advertis ing a return engagement of the John- son-Flynn pictures. "If it was a dis- grace for Reno to hold the fight in j the first place," said Rev. Mr. Gordon, i "I would like to ask if it is an honor for Topeka to show pictures of the kind.

"CASCARETS WORK WHILE YOU SLEEP' TELLS OFJEESON Kansas Lost a Mighty Good Citizen When He Died. BIG BERRYTON FAIR, More Than 1.500 People Saw Interest ing Exhibits. Fiddled His Way Into Office, Yandegrift Says. "Kansas lost a mighty good citizen when Chalkley M. Beeson was killed "by his horse at Dodge City not long ago." observes Fred Vandegrift, the veteran newspaper correspondent, in The Earth. To his intimates, and in the newspapers of the southwest, he was 'Chalk' Beeson, and he had lived on the plains since 1S72. A native of Illinois, he went to Colorado in 1S72, where he remained until 1875, when he settled at Dodge City. While he lived in Colorado he was a scout and guide for General Phil Sheridan, whose army was assigned to keep rov ing bands of wild Indians, crossing the plains, under proper subjection. He was in this service at the time of the visit of the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia in this country, and was the chief guide in a buffalo hunt arranged by Genera! Sheridan for the distinc guifhed visitor. -He went to Dodge City when the place was on the frontier, the rendez vous for outlaws, gamblers and cow boys. Here he made his home until his untimely death, witnessing the re treat of the outlaws and the estab lishment of law and order in the com munity. He knew Boot Hill when it was the burying place of 'bad men,' and witnessed the rise of the splendid high school which now stands upon Its summit. Instinctively a farmer, he bought land and cattle, and made his living by agriculture, dying pos sessed of some hundreds of acres of bottom land south of the Arkansas river, opposite Dodge City, and a com fortable home overlooking the farm. He served his county in the capacity of sheriff, and in the legislature, and always was active in civic duty. He was a consistent Christian, in his later years superintendent of Sunday school, and was an honorable and Just mar, "A musician of rare native abilit3". he organized and was the leader of a cowboy band, for many years noted in Kansas. By this talent, and the in stinctive hospitality of himself and Mrs. Eeeson. their home was one of the social centers of Dodge City.. No company of men and women was com plete without 'Chalk' Beeson and his fiddle. It is related of him that when he was before the people for sheriff, i. he sang and fiddled his way to suc cess. The campaign was in the threshing season. and Mr. Beeson followed the threshers. All over the county, daily, he went from thresher gang to thresher gang; everywhere making a hand at pitching, feeding, or what not, and after supper entertain ing the threshermen with song and violin, occasionally beguiling the hour with cheerful anecdote. It was a close contest, and the acquaintances ana friends made by this unique campaign won for him. "He was a man of rugged body and never known to be ill until the hour he was thrown from a broncho, suf fering injuries from which in a few hours he died. He was a useful, lov able and manly man. All Kansas mourned when he died and many men who had known him in politics. Ma sonry or other relation came from all over the state to pay respects to their dead friend."

THEATRICAL NEWS, O'Brien's Minstrels Coming Grand October 25. to the FREE FOR ALL FIGHT, Mexican and Italian Laborers Ilavt One at Santa Fe Junction. Two Mexicans and two Italians were wounded in a free for all fight near the Santa Fe-Union Pacific junctions in North Topeka Saturday night. The men were employed as laborers in track gangs and the fight occurred as the men arrived at the tool house at Quitting time. The two Mexican were injured so badly that it was nec essary to take them to the St. Fran cis hospital for treatment and the two Italians were given medical attention and hen-locked up in- the -city prison. The Mexicans were employed on the Santa Fe and the Italians on the Un ion Pacific. The police have been unable to learn the motive of the trouble and none of the participants will offer any information. Those who can talk suf ficiently to be understood claim that they know nothing of the cause or who started the trouble and the oth ers claim that they do not understand the questions propounded. Among those who were injured are: John Cerinzia, Italian, 25 years old, ugly gash in back of head, serious but not thought to be fatal. Frank Cerinzia, Italian, aged 33, bruised and beaten. Mosto Reos, Mexican, aged 50, bullet through left side of head. Juan Reos. Mexican, aged 35, stab bed in left side. The police received information of the fight at 6 o'clock Saturday night. Sergeant Dan Carden and Patrolman Duncan and Special Officer Gaines of the Union Pacific responded and brought the injured men to the police station. Following this, they were taken to trie office of Dr. C. M. He-i-sley, the county physician, where their injuries were dressed. The two Mexicans were sent from the phy sician's office to the hospital. An examination showed that a bul let had torn its way through the left eye and out below the left ear of Mosto Reos. Another bullet passed through the left thigh of the othir Mexican. Juan Reos. The latter also had been stabbed in the left thigh. Both men bled profusely and were un conscious when they were received at the hospital. The wound in the head of Frank Cerinzia must have been in flicted by some sharp instrument as the skull was fractured and more than, a dozen stitches were necessary to close the wound. Sam Ollisio an interpreter who was employed with the Italians, was taken to the police station, but would not give the police any information which would reveal the cause of the trou ble. Jess Clark, the American fore man, who was in charge of the Ital ians, ran away when the fight begun, and could not give any information. Considerable enmity exists between the laborers of the various nationali ties and this is supposed to have caus ed the trouble. Fights of this natura occur from time to time and in, the various camps along the lines of the various railroad systems. All of the injured are reported to be improving and it is thought that all of them will recover. Juan Reos, the younger of the Mexicans, has been released from the hospital. Neil O'Brien and his Great Ameri can Minstrels will be the attraction at the Grand on next Friday night. This is a new organization this season and enters the race for minstrel supremacy with every prospect of winning golden rewards. Manager Oscar Hodge, who lately managed the tours of Lew Dcckstader has surr-unded his star with an amazing array of talent, in cluding many of the highest salaried comedians, singers and special feature acts on the minstrel stage. Neil O'Brien needs no introduction to American au diences. For years he has entertain ed thousands with his original wit and won their admiration for the good clean fun with which his work always permeates.

"If the court please, might that go over until after election?" Anybody who spends much time in tr.e two divisions of the Shawnee county dis trict court would hear such a plea many times. It has bobbed up oftener than al most anything else in the last two or three weeks. And it is the occasion of the postponement of many cases. In fact so universal is the plea that it was witfr difficulty that any jury casts were begun in either division of the court And as a result the court house is quieter than it has been in many moons. "I don't think I ever saw so little d. ''ng here," is a common remark among those who frequent the court house.- Attorneys. or at least a number of them, are interested in the coming election t- such an extent tirat they have little tiine for their usual work. As a result fewer cases than usual are being filed, and every case, it would seem, that can be postponed until some time in November is being continued. v t Veil O'Brien, the Famous Minstrel, AYho Is Coming to the Grand Octo ber 2. eludes in addition to the star, such notable comedians as Billy Van, Eddie Mazier, Willie Alexander, Pete Detzel, and Major Nowak.

This play leaves an audience thinking well of it after its departure, and enjoyed one of the longest runs of any of the New York attractions at the Wallack theater. This play was written by the famous author, Paul Armstrong. The Freedom of Suzanne, a modern comedy with laughs, is the show for the coming week at the Majestic, be ginning tonight.

Grant, commander-in-chief of the Union army in the Civil war and Republican presi dent of the United States from 1869 to 1877, has declared for Wilson and Marshall, stating his reasons in an open letter. He says: "We are at the threshold of a new period of transition. Shall the door be blocked by men who cannot sre ahead? Shall we elect to follow men who while clothed with official power, nurtured privilege and fostered mo nopoly, and who now propose nothing better than to learalize and regulate monopoly and make us live under it the rest of our lives? "Or shall we call t leadership a new man from the outside, from the ranks of the people, in sympathy with their lives and their ideals, hold ing their viewpoint, consecrated to their service? Such a man is Wood row Wilson. "As a son of the soldier who fought to uphold the principles for which Abraham Lincoln stood, and as a son of a Republican president, I can see only one duty for myself to give heartily my influence and my vote for principle and not for the name of a party long since divorced from its sym pathy for the common man." SENT TO THE ASYLUM. Paul Stark of Newton Was Adjudged Insane Saturday. A victim of hereditary insanity and his own intemperate habits Paul Her man Stark, 21 years old, was this morning adjudged tc be insane in a hearing before Probate Judge W. F. Schoch, and was ordered committed to the state hospital. The young man's home is at Newton, Kansas. He was working on a farm near Tecumseh re cently, and when complaint charging that he is insane was made against him he was taken into the local court for trial. Stark sat dumb, refusing to answer the questions of his examiners. At times he would brei-k into a silly, rervera eking laugh. Then, except for frequent expectorations, he would con tinue his silence. His father, Carl H. Stark of New ton, was here for the hearing. He jaid the young man has wandered away from home on several occasions, and could not be located f r months. His mother and her sister, the father said, were insane. The commission found that insanity probably runs in the family. Young Stark was brought to Topeka several days ago when it was thought he was sick, and Dr. C. M. Hensley, 'he county physician, was asked to prescribe for him. Dr. Hensley in estimated the case and declared he believed the young nan was insane.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL OCTOBER 21, 1912 ixal r t OX 1 mm J HHfe 1 For One Week Our Entire Stock Offered in Six-Pair Lots at Special Prices There uesd to be a time when most everybody bought their stockings a pair or two at a time, but since the advent of these Crosby Semi-Annual Hosiery Sales, they have learned that it is much to their advantage in price and every other way to buy in lots of six to a dozen pairs or more They have come to see that it is a profitable proposition to get every member of the family fully supplied with hosiery. This store has always been Topeka's Hosiery Headquarters. It is the home of Geneva Silk Hosiery in different weights and qualities in black and colors that sell at 25c, 35c, 50c and 75c a pair; it is the home of "Regina," the finest half-dollar stocking made for women; the Sapho, the Tip Top B. Holeproof guaranteed stockings, NoMend for children and other of the best makes that retail at 15c, 25c, 35c and 50c a pair, all of which will be offered in Six-Pair Lots for one week at the Special Prices we here name. All of our various lines of fine lisle and and silk hose that sell regularly at 75c to $6.00 a pair will be sold in Three-Pair Lots at prices correspondingly reduced. Styl Six Pairs of Any 15c Hosiery for.

It is knited from a specially spun hard twisted cotton yarn, and into the knees, heels and toes which points are subjected to the hardest wear, is knit ted a stout Irish Linen Thread. This prevents many a hole that would other wise quickly appear. It reduces darn ing to the minimum. NoMend comes in two weights, one for the boys and one for the girls; or dinarily the price is 25c, this week you can get Six Pairs for $1.23 :z that comes as near meeting the .s does Regina at 50c a pair.

Black and colors, assorted anyway you want them this week Six Pairs for $2.69 REO. O.S. PAT.OFI For Men Women and Children The sale of Holeproof Hose is larger than that of any other Garanteed Hose manufactured. It is larger because people all over the country have learned by actual experience that it is the best. If you buy a box of six pairs they are guaranted to wear without going in holes for six months, and if for any reason they don't you get new ones in their place without any argument whatever. This week we offer six pairs of Men's 25c Holeproof for $1.28, six pairs of Men's 50c Holeproof for $2.69, six pairs of Children's 35c Holeprof for $1.79, six pairs of Women's 35c Cot ton Holeproof for $1.79, or six pairs of Women's 50c Mercerized Lisle Holeproof for $2.69. Our Unexcelled Silk Hosiery Lots of women have an idea that to get good silk hose they must pay an exorbitant price or else forego durability and good appearance. That's a mistake. At least it's a mistake in so far as the silk hosiery we handle. Many a woman is perfectly willing to pay a dollar to a dollar and a half for silk stockings, if she only knew for sure that she was getting a stocking that was silk through and through. To women who think thus wo say: Come to Crosby's this week and make your selection from our completed lines of McCaUum and Kayser Silk Hose; you'll find them the best silk stockings money can produce.

Today We Opened Our New Stove Department Before we made public several weeks ago the fact that we intended opening" a department for the sale of stoves and ranges, we had been going about gather ing reliable information as to which one of the many lines manufactured was the most advisable one for us to carry as our principal selling line; We wanted to get the Topeka Selling Agency for Stoves and Ranges that had capacity for service goods that we could sell to our customers knowing that we were giving them the very best value their money would buy. We looked into the merits of all the leading lines, finally deciding to install one of the oldest makes Americas Very Best The "A corn Quality in Acorns means that kind of material and workmanship which results in excellent bakinar, exceptional fuel eeonomy, great convenience and maximum durability The features of Acorn Steel Ranges are not merely "talking- points," so ca'led, but each fea ture accomplishes something for quick and fine baking, saving of fuel, durability or convenience For example, the bodies of all Acorn Steel Ranges are made with neither paint nor japan There is nothing to burn off, and the bodies require no blacking. This saves labor for the woman in the kitchen. The H A Tl Le liome Acorn xsanae For Gas, Soft Coal, Hard Coal or 24-Inch Wbocl Without End Hearth This ransre is fitted with the Acorn Hot Blast Firebox the greatest improvement ever made in range construction. When heat is applied to soft coal, from 25 to 33$ per cent of the coal (by weight) is driven off in the form of gases; the substance left is called coke. When soft coal is burning there are in reality two processes going on. The solid part of the fuel is uniting with the oxygen in the air, but the gas thus formed is itself combustible. In other words, the coal has taken up one-half of the amount of oxygen it is capable of combining with. Under proper conditions this gas can be burned. If not burned the carbon in the gas con denses to form heavy, black smoke. In the ordinary stove these gases are allowed to pass out unburned. In the Acorn Hot Blast Firebox a current of intensely heated air is constantly supplied to burn the gases and their combustion can be plainly seen when the range is in operation. No further argument is needed to prove the value of this firebox for fuel economy. 1 -.OS 4V '7 1 The N ew Royal Acron "With Circular Flue America's Very Best Base B urner It has been scientifically proved that the Royal Acorn radiates from 10 to 32 per cent more heat from every pound of coal burned than any other base burner and that it radiates 12 per cent more heat than a 3-flue stove. In this flue system the heat is carried over the radiating surfaces in one undivided sheet instead of being divided up into two or three differenc streams. There is no construction other than this circular flue which carries ALL the heat over ALL the radiating surfaces. This air circulating power of the Royal Acorn not only saves "fuel by increasing the amount of heat absorbed from the products of combustion, but also gives the stove a genuine superiority over all others in thorough and even distribution of the heat. Acorn Oak Stoves are Best This handsome new pattern is unquestionably the tightest, best con structed, moderately priced Oak Stove on the marKet. The steel body is flanged outward at top and bottom, and is bolted on the outside to the upper and lower rings. The doors and dampers are perfectly fitted. The ashpit is large and tightly mounted to a heavy firepot. Screw damper in ashpit door locks tight. The design is smooth and very rich and handsome. Ornamented with Acorn New Process Nickel. The Full Showing Comprises Gas, Coal and Wood Stoves and Ranges at all prices. Responsible persons can arrange for Con venient Terms if desired. 4m
