Campaign managers are revising plans for the windup of the presidential fight. Th'i injury to Colonel Roosevelt, the volun tary withdrawal of Governor "Wilson from the stump and the fact that neither President Taft nor Vice Presi dent Sherman has taken part in the active work of the campaign has re sulted in changing plans in all '.hrce of the chief political campaigns.

Governor Johnson 13 to fill in most of Colonel Roosevelt's proposed engapr- mf-nta in the east and the Democr, leaders are rushing a number of thir chief speakers into Pennsylvania and v-or vnrir to take ud the work planned originally for Governor Wil son. The Democratic campaign will ce.i tor in Ppn nsvlvania from this time forth, according to statements mad here. A score of Democratic senators in fntis-rppsmen who have Det-u speaking throughout the country will be sent into tne state tins wccn.. the hope of making inroads on here tofore solid Republican ground. The Republican fight also is to be quick ened in the east with a concentration of forces in New York state. Secre tary of State Knox is to deliver several speeches in astern cities, including Buffalo and New York. It is expected that Senator Lodge and Secretary Meyer will join the Republican speak ing force, which already includes Secretaries Nagel and Wilson. Forme-.-Congressman J. Adam Bede and John Harlan of Chicago who followed Colonel Roosevelt throughout his en tire western tour will stump New Kngland and eastern states until elec tion. Col. Roosevelt's arrival from Chi cago today was not expected to alter Progressive plans. Senator Joseph M. Dixon had determined to leave to the judgment of Col. Roosevelt's doctors the question of his appearance October SO at the big Progressive rally at Madi eon Square Garden, New York, but Progressive leaders were plainly hope ful that the candidate would be able to join Governor Johnson and Oscar S. Straus in that demonstration. Should he speak there Governor Wilson will probably speak in the same hall at a Democratic rally the following night. President Taft will make one final campaign speech according to an nouncement from bis headquarters. He will speak in New Y'ork November 2 at the dinner to be given to Charles L. Hilles, chairman of the Republican committee, and it is understood the Fpeeeh will be in the nature of a "mes- page" to the country such as Governor j Wilson is to issue on the same day- through the medium of the "Wilson Marshall day" demonstration. democratic leaders have determined upon Colorado, Idaho, Nebraska, Kan fas, Nevada, and New Jersey as the ftates where they will concentrate ef forts to carry state legislatures in the hope of electing Democrats to succeed Republicans in the United States scn p.te MADE HANGMAN NOOSE For Half Century Meyers Made Ropes to Hang Men.

Beverly, Mass., Oct. 22. President Taft receeived yesterday from a little girl a six leaf clover. The child wrote that she was eight years old. said she pent It, "four leaves for good luck and two to defeat the Bull Moose." AGE WEDS YOUTH. leavemvorth Dentist Aged rles Girl 16. 65 Mar- Kansas City, Oct. 22. He was a distinguished looking man, apparent ly about 65 years old tall and erect, with gray hair and gray mustache and imperial. And sh'e was just a little more than 16 and very nervous and timid, as she stood waiting outside the private office of John T. Sims, probate judge of Wyandotte county, on the Kansas side, while her escort remained within for a few minutes. The judge was sought. "Married?" he said, in surprise. "Oh, no! We had Just been talking business." Then the visitor was found. "Mar ried?" he said. "Yes, of course but you can't put anything about it in the papers I asked the judge to have it kept out." And he chuckled with assurance, refusing to disclose their names. Then Judge Sims confessed that the distinguished looking man was Dr. J R. Boyd and the young woman was Mildred King both registered from Leavenworth. Leavenworth. Kan., Oct. 22. Dr. J. R. Boyd is a pioneer of Leavenworth and is widely known here. For years he was a dentist, but retired last summer after the death of his son, Carelton Boyd, and had been living at the Planters hotel. His first wife died a year ago. Two daughters are married and live in the northwest. Miss Mildred King is the daughter of a guard at the federal prison. She had been working in a confection ery store, where Doctor Boyd met her Her parents were not made ac quainted with her plans. MEETING TONIGHT Stubbs and Bristow to Speak at the Auditorium. Progressives Plan Rousing Rally of the Campaign. The Stubbs-Bristow meeting at the auditorium tonight will call back recol- ivluhs ui Lutr pu.nn uajs wnen toicn light processions and parades were one of the features of a political campaign in Kansas. This is the first important meeting in Topeka in the interest of Stubbs' candidacy for United States senator and a big parade on Kansas avenue will precede the meeting in the auditorium. There will be brass bands and banners in the street parade and in the auditorium both Stubbs and Bris tow will handle the 1912 political situ.i tion in Kansas without gloves. Shortly after 8 o'clock this evening the Kansas avenue parade will start. Both the Knights, and Ladies of Secur ity band and Jeckson's band will be in the parade, while Marshall's band will furnish the music at the auditorium. Several hundred Stubbs enthusiasts will march in the parade. Many of these workers will carry banners with slogans characteristic of the campaigns in the early 90s. "Hear Stubbs Tonight," "Stubbs for a Square Deal," "Stubbs Will Represent All People," and "Kan sas Needs Stubbs in Washington," are some of the declarations and state ments contained on the banners to be earned by the Stubbs followers Both Stubbs and Bristow will tell of tne political situation in the state. Right here in Topeka, where the fight ing is bitter and the Stubbs opposition has been perhaps the most apparent, Stubbs and Bristow will express their frank and candid opinion of the men who are leading the opposition to the Bull Moose candidates on the Republi can state ticket. Both men are moat forceful speakers and ti.ey will lay aside formalities in their statements concerning the Kansas situation. Preceding the meeting there will be a band concert and pipe organ recital in the auditorium. Speakine will begin at S o'clock. W. W. Mills will preside at the meeting and following the Stubbs Bristow speeches, a short talk will h made by some well known Shawnee county Republican. This speech will be in behalf of the Rennblican tickot in this county and all county candidates r-.ave oeen urged to attend the meeting. FIGHT TO DEATH Unknown 3ran and Woman Kill Each Other. Name of Xeither Known Only One Outcry. St. Louis. Oct. 22. In the crowded Falstaff cafe in the heart of the down town district a man and a woman fought to the death at midnight Mon day night. Neither has yet been iden tified by thi police. No one in the throng of Bohemians and after thea ter diners could be found who knew either of the principals in the tragedy. A postcard may identify the man. It was addressed to L. D. Morrell and signed by Hannah C. Kelly, 36 Babbit street, Dayton, Ohio. The woman wore a wedding ring inscribed M. C. O'D to A. P. The woman was seated in the cafe with two men and a woman when the unidentified man entered. He went quietly to the table, called the woman i ne man stood above the woman aud plunged a knife into her body. She screamed and they struggled intc the center of the room where she wrested the knife from the man and stabbed him in the throat. He fell dead and she sank down on his body. A score of women fainted and men fled. The woman died on the way to the hospital without speaking a word. The tragedy occurred without the slightest warning. Within five min utes the street above the Falstaff was massed with people and more than 50 hysterical women were being cared for. The double killing was so amazing that investigation began slowly and so far has been practically fruitless. Search for the three persons with whom the dead woman was dining did not furnish even a clue to their identi ty. Few persons could be found who could even describe them. The wom an's single cry before the first knilc stroke was the only sound uttered by either in the duel of 30 seconds. The woman had been stabbed twice and her fingers cruelly slashed before she secured the knife. At a late hour the police were toid by one of the cafe owners who In fear had fled at the killing, that the wo man had been in the cafe twice with the man who seemed insanely jealous of her. He declared, however, he had no Idea who they were. Weather Forecast for Kansas. j Fair tonight and Wednesoay. Slow- j ly rising temperature. I THEY WON'T Wk Wilson and Prosperity Words That Refuse to Unite Says President taft in Letter to John Wanamaker. Beverly, Mass., Oct. 22. White House officials have made public a letter from President Taft to John Wana maker of Philadelphia, dealing with some of the issues of the campaign and thanking Mr. Wanamaker in his own behalf and on behalf of the peo ple of the nation for his "splendid work.'1 The president's letter dealt almost exclusively with the tariff and prosperity, which he declared was largely due to protection. The letter in part reads: "Mr. Dear Mr. Wanamaker: I want to thank you for the splendid work you are doing for the success of the Republican party in the approaching election. I thank you not for myself alone, but for the people at large who have so much to lose, so little to gain from a change of administration, who will indeed suffer if a Democratic president and a Democratic congress secure the opportunity to make good their platform pledges and an extra session of congress is called next March to change the tariff from a pro tective to a revenue basis. "The abundant crops of this year are already operating to decrease the cost of living to the American working man, while there is every indication that wages will be maintained. On the other hand, our factories are run ning full time, there are aounaant or ders ahead, wages high and it is labor, not employment of which there is a scarcity. The wage earner is just on the eve of garnering his harvest, and if the existing conditions are not changed by a political upheaval, we will se the balance in the savings banks grow in the next four years as never be fore. "We have experimented in the past with the tariff theories of our Demo cratic friends. You will recall as clearly as I do the distress which fol lowed the passage of the Wilson bill. Is there not a certain significance in the fact that it is another Wilson who would again subject us to such an experiment. Wilson and prosper ity are words that refuse to go to gether in our American history. "The election of a Democratic pres ident would mean the election of a Democratic senate and house and the present congress has proved how sav agely and with what recklessness the Democrats would deal with the tariff if they were in full control of the ex ecutive and legislative branches of the government. I can not understand how any American voter can fail to see that by throwing away his vote on the third party or by voting to put the Democrats in power in the White House and in congress he is as surely courting disaster as is the small child playing with matches." Chang of Plans. There has been a sudden shift in President Taft's vacation plans, and in consequence he probably will re turn to Washington for the winter next Sunday. If the program as ten tatively announced is carried out, the summer White House here will be closed Friday and the president and Mrs. Taft will end their vacation then. With the change in plans came the announcement that Secretary of State nox will arrive in Beverly Wednes day, to be the president's guest for several days. Mr. Knox will accom pany the president and Mrs. Taft on a motor trip of two days into New Hampshire and Maine. There are many things about which the president wishes to consult his secretary of state. The Panama tolls, the Mexican and Nicaraguan situa tions and other diplomatic questions that have assumed great importance since Mr. Knox left for Japan, will be taken up in detail by the presi- j dent. No special significance is at tached to the long visit of Mr. Knox I with the president, but it was said that many matters will come up which will require careful consideration. I TRY TO KILL Wi State's Principal Witness At tacked Soon After Murder. Sow Believed Auto Saved E. S Moore's Life. Wellington, Kan., Oct. 22. Since E. S. Moore, the second hand man, had been found to be a most important witness in the McKnelly case, the of ficers are wondering if the assault on Mr. Moore a few nights after the arrest of Otto has any significance relative to the murder case. As Moore was going home a few nights after the murder he was as saulted by two men. He was struck with something that might have been a sandbag. An automobile which happened to come along at the mo ment is believed to have frightened the assailants away before they could do any more harm. He describes the men as one being small and the other of ordinary height. Mr. Moore has testified that Otto McKnelly bought a .38 caliber revol ver at his store on about September 6, and that there was another man with McKnelly when he paid for the gun. The officers are now trying to find who this man was. and as they are working on the theory of young McKnelly's. guilt, they think it may nM be improbable that McKnelly's companion may have been responsible for the attack on Mr. Moore, know ing he wai an important witness against McKnelly. The officers believe they will get some very important evidence if they can find the man who was with Otto when he bought the gun. "I suppose you are proud of your wife's literary success?" said the intimate friend. "Yes." replied Mr. Stubbs. "Only I wish she wouldn't insist on making the hero of every novel a tall, athletic young man, t. I ..I....;.... 1 t Anvbodv can see that I am short, tut. bald and compelled to wear specs."

HEAVY FIGHTING IS REPORTED With Severe Losses on Part of Both Belligerents. The Moslem Retreat From Ela zona Becomes a Panic. Belgrade, Oct. 22. The four Ser vian armies are advancing slowly into Turkish territory, but are meeting with stubborn resistance from the Turkish troops, according to official reports reaching here from the front. The first Servian army, operating the direction of the fortress of TJsk ip has reached the vicinity of Kumanova only ten miles away from Uskup. Tho Servian troops today captured th-s j outlying positions around the town and a general attack on the town it self is expected today. The Servian army approaching Pristina along the river Ibar, had a serious engagement yesterday with a strong force of Turkish troops and Arnaut irregulars, estimated by the Servian commander at 40,000 men, with ten companies of Turkish re serves and four batteries of artillery The fight took place In the Hocstld'd pass, in the vicinity of the Servian towns of Bashka and Yenipazar, on the Servian frontier. The Servians took the offensive and captured the entrance to the pass after some very heavy fighting. The Turkish troops then retired and the Servians were able to pass through on to the plains of the Turkish province of Kossovo. The Servian army was unable to ad vance farther by reason of darkness, but the weather generally is excellent for military operations. The losses of the Servian troops were considerable while those of the Turks are believed to have been very heavy. Another Servian arnjy operating in the northern part of Novipazar ias captured all the Turkish block houses I and advance to positions around the I town of Sienitza. Tne first convoy or wounded readi ed Belgrade today. It consisted of about 15fl men, the majority of whom were only slightly wounded. Kinr? Peter crossed the border in a motor car and was enthusiastically received by the troops. Fleeing In Panic. Athens, Oct. 2 2. The Turkish army is fleeing In panio from Dhisikata on the way to the Turkish town of Servia in the north, according to a semi-official statement issued here today. The Greek troops are said to be pursulni them vigorously. When the Turks precipitately aban doned the town of Elazona, it is said, they left behind them their staff maps and a million cartridges. They also dropped during their retreat much of their clothing and most of their engi neering implements. The total losses to the Greeks dur ing the first day's engagement are given as one captain, two sublieuten ants and nineteen men killed and seventy-five wounded. The Greek troops in Epirus have occupied the heights commanding Grimbovo and those of Xirovouni. The Turkish artillery fire upon the heights of Grimbovo was without material ef fect. Greeks Cross Turkish Frontier. London, Oct. 2 2. The armies of Servia, Bulgaria and Greece continued today to clear their way to their main objective points, the Turkish fortresses of Uskup, Adrianople and Servia, the last of these a Turkish town on the Grecian frontier. Greek armies have crossed the Turkish frontier at two points. In Kpicus, on the west, they have occu- I pied the heights of Grimbovo, while at the eastern end they are pursuing the Turkish troops to their base at the town of Servia, where an important battle is expected to be fought. The taking of the town by the Greeks would carry them appreciably nearer to the Manastic and Saloniki road. The Servians are probably having the hardest fighting at the present moment. Operating toward Uskup and Prishtina and further north in the district of Novipazar, they have to contend not only against Turkish regu lars but also against the Arnauts fierce Albanian tribesmen. One of their armies has advanced as far as the city of Kuananova, the principal town between the Servian frontier and Uskup. The Servians have secured possession of the mountai npass lead ing to Prishtina, Military authorities suggest that King Ferdinand's Bulgarians will not attempt to rush the fortress of Adrianople, but will mask it and move around it to the east or the west. The reported intention of the Bulgarian army to pass Adrianople and to head direct for Constantinople Is dismissed as impracticable by military men. The distance is the same as that from Dalny to Mukden in Manchuria which took the Japanese army a year to cover. TO GET MORE GAS Receivers Ask Permission to Spend $600,000. Complete Main to Tulsa Field Their Intention. Kansas City, Oct. 22. The receiv ers for the Kansas Natural Gas com pany will ask Judge Pollock of the Kansas federal court today to author ize them to extend the gas mains into new fields under the receivership. The reporj., it was "said, would not mention the price of gas to consumers. It was intended, if the court gives assent ,to extend the partially com pleted main to the Tuisa field. The cost is estimated at $600,000. JURY HEARS STORY Girl's Mother and Lucile Cam eron on Stand. Life With Johnson to Probed This Afternoon. Be Chicago, Oct. 22. The federal grand jury today began. its investiga tion of the charges that Jack John son, the negro champion pugilist, vio lated the Mann law in his relations with Lucile Cameron, a 19 year old white girl. Mrs. Cameron-Falconette of Minne apolis, the girl's mother, and Lucile, who has been held in the Rockford jail in default of $25,000 bonds, were among the witnesses. The mother ae-aln l-ilearled with the eirl to give up the negro champion and also to tell the jurors an sne couia regarumis relations with the negro. "Please, my dear, brace up and tell all you know," she is said to have begged of her daughter. "There still is a chance for you if you will give up the negro." "Jack" Curley, fight promoter, who was wanted in connection with the case appeared at the federal building and said he was ready to tell all he knew about the affair. A search was made for him yesterday but he could not be located. Curley said that Johnson and tne tameron gin iwu been at his home only twice. The first time was to meet her mother, he said, and the other time when the champion came to ask him to look after his pro posed fights in Australia. Lucile will, according to present plans1, enter the Jury room and tell her story of ner relations with the negro immediately after her mother has completed her testimony. Has Fought His Last Fight. New York, Oct. 22. From all ap pearances Jack Johnson has fought his last ring battle in any country. The antagonism stirred up against the colored heavyweight champion as a result of his latest escapades is equiv alent to pugilistic exile. Australia is the latest country to ostracize the title holder. Hugh Mc intosh, the Antipodes promoter, ca bled his representative in Chicago', W. W. Kelly, to cancel all negotiations for bouts between Johnson and Sam Langford and Joe Jeannette or Sam McVey. Johnson was to have re ceived $50,000 as his end. Johnson alone is responsible for his deterioration as a drawing card. New Y'ork City was the first to place the ban on him; then came the entire south, next the coast and then the middle west. That virtually meant the lowering of the portcullis of the United States on Johnson as a princi pal in a boxing contest. To augment Johnson's troubles, a move has been started in the middle west to prevent Johnson from even appearing on the stage in his exhibi tion. In some of the southern states a petition has been in circulation for several weeks to bar Johnson's name from finding its way into print. It is now likely that the eastern period icals will be asked to Join the move ment. England will not stand for John son. The Britons showed their ani mus toward the champion by prohib iting him from fighting Bombardier Wells, and France will probably be next to shut the gate in Johnson's face. Special Agent Bert J. Meyer of the United States department of justice, with four policemen, descended upon Jack Johnson's saloon and served sub poenas on all attaches to appear be fore the grand jury. They will be questioned not alone concerning the Jeannette Dore case violation of the Mann act, but about other charges that have been made since the federal autnorities Began their investigation. A mass of testi mony is being prepared for submission to the grand jury. With the United States officials went Charles Erbstein, attorney for Mrs. Cameron-Falconet, mother of Lucile Cameron, who caused her daughter's arrest in order to save her from Johnson. COUNTYJBALLOTS Will Be 100,000 Printed for November Election. Topekans Will Have Chance to Vote for 45 Candidates. Work toward getting out approxi mately 100,000 ballots for use in Shawnee county in the election in two weeks is being done by County Clerk Zimmerman. The ballots include about 40,000 general ballots, 40,000 ballots for the special questions1 sub mitted to the voters regarding a change in the constitution giving suf frage to women; 20,000 township bal lots and about 2,500 samples. There will be five columns on the regular ballots for the various politi cal parties, which will appear as fol lows; from left to right of the ballot: Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Inde pendent and blank. Despite the fact that nomination petitions filed with the county clerk before the primary were bad, and were thrown out, suf ficient votes were cast at the primary for candidates whose names were writ ten into the ballots to nominate most of the county ticket. The Socia'ist column, therefore, practically will bo filled with the names of candidates lor all offices. In the city of Topeka the voters will receive two ballots, one the reg ular ballot catrying the candidates for presidential electors, state and countv officers, and the other carrying the question as to suffrage. In the rural precincts both these ballots and a thfr on which are printed the names of the township nominees will be given each voter. In the rural precincts there are 52 candidates to be voted for, including the township officers. In the city ot Tojeka there are 45 candidates for all offices. Thi general ballots will be much the same as those used four years ago except they Will consist in one jmn less, the Prohibition party column being eliminated irj the pres ent election. The ballots probably will be printed early next week to be ready for dis- tribution the last of next week to the various election officers. MORE FINE WEATHER AHEAD.

Murphy Thinks He Can Play Many More Years. By E. S. Geiger. Chicago, Oct. 22. The announcement that Johnny Evers has been appoint ed manager of the Cubs is to come offi cially from President Charles W. Mur phy on Saturday, providing the Murphy-Chance controversy does not cause a hitch. But at any rate Murphy will hold the information no longer than November 1. There was no meeting between Evers and the boss Monday. A conference was to be held, but when the story broke so unexpectedly, both the tro jan and Murphy got busy on the wire and effected a postponement. As near as can be learned they are to meet Friday when the contract is to be signed and the announcement will come officially soon after. Evers was a hard person to find after the news broke, the wise little Johnny not car ing to be interviewed. Incidentally with the assurance that the story is genuine. Murphy refus ing to flatly deny it, comes more rea sons why the owner of the West side organization has selected the Troy youngster. Of course the fact that John is the nearest approach to Mugsy McGraw seems to be the strong fea ture with Murphy. But he is credited with saying that John has the ability to talk intelligently in public, that he is a good mixer and carries convinc ing arguments (no intimation is made here that this is a reflection on the ability of Frank Chance or that he lacked any of these qualities). Murphy argues that Evers is the only old timer on the team who retains the speed of the famous stonewall infield. He is married, has a family and clean habite. He is popular in all of the cities where baseball is played and is as well liked in New York as he is in Chicago, this despite the fact that in 1908 his quick thought robbed the Giants the championship when Merkle failed to touch second. Then another strong feature in Evers is the fact that Johnny is of a build that changes little. Either in or out of the playing sea son Evers takes on little weight, this attribute making him to play the game for a long time to come. Murphy is of the belief that Johnny will still be in the game when he reaches Hans Wagner's age, and the veteran is close to 43. Johnny being but 29 years old now, he would have a long reign at the head of the Chicago National League organ ization. ..lurphy is satisfied that John carries the respect of every member of the team and that they will play ;ust e.s hard for him as they did for Frank Chance. Evers carries convinc ing arguments, Murphy declares, has the courage to go Into the thick of the fight and fight for right and will keep alive the fighting spirit that Frank Chanee instilled into the team years ago. Murphy still declaies that Chance practically released himself when he told him in August that he would rath er not manage the team. "We must have a manager who is willing to manage a ball club and who is heart and soul in the fight." said Murphy today. "I have nothing but praise for Chance and he did his work nobly. But he informed me he would rather not handle the team so I sought out a new manager." MRS. DICKIE IS DEAD, End Came Suddenly to Former To peka Lady at Cedar Rapids. Word was received today of the sudden death this morning of Mrs. W. G Dickie at her home in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. It is not known as yet the cause of death. The news is a great, shock to her host of friends in Topeka. Mr. and Mrs. Dickie lived here for many years, movine to Cedar Rapid3 about a year ago when the Jensen Manufacturing company, of which Mr. Dickie was president, was consolidated with a large cream- ery supply house in Cedar Rapids. Mrs Dickie was an accomplished pianist and was a member of the Ladies' Music club during the time her home was in Topeka. She and her daughter, Margaret, visited friends here only a few weeks ago and apparently was in the best of health. She leaves a husband and six-year-old daughter. The body will be taken to her old home in Lancas ter, WTis., for burial. RGBBED MAN MISSING Harry Callahan, who claimed to have teen robbed of $185 by W. A. Kenney and H. G. Coffman Sunday night failed to appear against the accused men who were being held at the police station and they have been released.

In PLANNED TO AVOID CROWDS His Wishes Respected at All Points on Journey. Flowers the Only Token of a Public Welcome. Oyster Bay, Oct. 22. A week of absolute rest will put Col. Roosevelt In the best of condition said his physi cians today. At the end of that time if he follows the strict regime which has been planned for him, it is ex pected he will be able to take up the campaign In its closing days. The colonel reached Sagamore Hill from Chicago today, walked unassisted up the stairs and went to bed expect ing to remain there most of the day. When the automobile carrying Col. Roosevelt reached the house the CJl onel stepped out, declining assistance. "It'a mighty good to be home again," he said. While a week was set as the period of absolute rest. It was explained that for a considerable longer time, Col. Koosevelt must avoid hard work and that it would be impossible for him to attempt to make many speeches. Sev eral weeks would be required for th complete healing of the wound and the knitting of the fractured rib. Syosset, L. I., Oct. 22. Theodora Roosevelt and party arrived here at 9:30 this morning. This place is fou. miles south of Oyster Bay and the train was routed thither to avoid any crowd. Only a handful of person were on hand when the colonel step ped from his car and walked unasstbt ed to an automobile. He was driven immediately to Sagamore Hill. The colonel was carefully wrapped up before he got into the automobile and wore the heavy army overcoat with the bullet hole in it. "I am feeling just fine." said the colonel as he waved his hand to the small crowd. To the town folks at Oyster Bay who were a bit surprised at not see ing Mr. Roosevelt come in the follow ing message was sent by his physi cians: "Col. Roosevlt has stood the Jour ney well, but we believe him in no condition to stand the excitement ol receiving his many friends at Oyster Bay. He deeply appreciates their in terest in his welfare. "We regret the necessity of not lnn-i-ing at Oyster Bay, but deem it better for him to go from Syosset to Saga more Hill." When he arrived at Sagamore Hill the colonel's wound was dressed and he went to bed at once with instruc tions to remain quiet all day. The physicians said the wound showed no ill effects from the trip. After a conference with the doctors George E. Roosevelt said this morn ing: "Colonel Roosevelt must have a week of absolute rest. If he has this ret he possibly will be able to make his Madison Square address, if he does not get the rest, he will be unable to make it." Arrival In New York. New York, Oct. 22. Col. Roosevcl. and party arrived at the Pennsylvania, station from Chicago shortly after 8 o'clock this morning. The colonel was eating his breakfast when the train pulled into the station at S:0S. He made a hearty meal of eggs, bacon, tea and bread and but ter. In accordance witn plans pre- viously arranged, there was no d- monstration at the station. All per- sons were barred from the train shfd except members of the family. Tht only ones who joined the party were Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, jr..

Carl Ward Fires Four Shots Into Heart. Salina. Kansas, Ost. 22. Mrs. W. R. Cox, who was found unconscious in her home yesterday after having been shot, today admitted to the police that she had been fired upon by her close friend. Mrs. Carl Ward, who a short time later committed suicide by shoot ing herself ajid jumping into a cistern. According to Mrs. Cox the shot which struck her may have been fired ac chlently as Mrs. Ward had shown her the revolver just prior to the shooting. Salina, Kan., Oct. 22. Mrs. Call Ward killed herself by shooting her self above the heart and jumping into a cistern. Shortly afterward", Mrs. W. R. Cox was found at her home, shot through the left breast, but still living. Mrs. Ward and Mrs. Cox had form erly lived together. After the suicide of Mrs. Ward was i discovered, Mrs. Supple drove to the; Cox home to inform Mrs. Ward's friends. She found no one until she: went upstairs when she found Mrs. Cox. who linked what was w rong and i why a siranger came there. j As the two women had stayed to gether, it was first believed there was a suicide pact. Neither Carl Harris nor W. R. Cox, husbands of the women, can be lo cated. They are traveling salesmen. The Wards have been staying at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Cox. Mr. Ward has just purchased a new cottage and it was at this place the suicide was committed. Oscar Limn was painting the Ward hou'P when Mrs. Ward came in by way of the rear door. She said something that "ounded to Mr. Lunn like '"You're in h hurry." but he says it misrht have been I'm in a hurry." With that -she opened the door and "went into another room. Lunn says he heard a revolver shot The hnllet entered the door where lie was painting. He opened the door, t'ninki.. the woman was shooting at him. Then he heard three or four more s'.lS in quick succession. Just at this time Will Boswell entered and grappling with the woman took the nun from her. He rushed out to sum mon a physician. Mrs. Ward all this 1me lay rn the floor in the room where flip iiad fired the Pilots. Suddenly the woman arose. Rushing through the house she went out the uacK door, jerked the cover off a narrow cis tern and plunged into the deep hole. The body was ta!:en out as soon is possible but she evidently had died as soon as she fell into the cistern. "Senator Hodges, who made a good Progressive record in the senate, af ter he ran for governor, lined up with the reactionaries and took away from the Progressives the organization of the senate, which carried with it con trol of the senate and thereby defeat ed many important Progressive meas ures. Hodges was careful to vote for these good measures himself, but when he lined up the Democrats against the Progressive Republicans and with the standpat Republicans in the state sen ate, he sounded the deathknell of sev eral big and important Progressive measures. More than that, during all this campaign Senator Hodges has been making an open bid for standpat votes. He has been ridiculing all the work done by Governor Stubbs, and charging him falsely with increasing the state expenditures. Every one knows that the governor can not spend one single penny for any purpose with out being authorized by law. And Hodces, as a member of the ways and means committee in the senate voted upon every item of increased expendi ture for which he is now complaining.

A tramp, wandering through the west, was taken ill and lay down by the roadside. One sunny October morning he was found unconscious In a tiny Missouri town in Maeon coun ty.

"Capper indorses the Progressive na tional candidate and tne frogressivi movement in this state.

With such exceptions, however, as the Coalers, Union Pacific, Steel and Amalgamated Copper, the rise did not go far enough to carry conviction. Trading was active in the first hour but fell off towards noon, when prices were slightly under their best. Specialties were less prominent than usual and call loan.v opening at 5 per cent gave intimations of increasing monetary firmness.

Returning to her home after having hofene-nne hut a few minutes late yes terday afternoon Mrs. William McEl- rov 1710 Harrison sueet. was norn--ied' to find her husband on his knees In the kitchen, a gaping wound in his throat from which the blood was flow ing freely. McElroy died before med ical assistance could reach him. He had plashed his throat with a razor, evidently with suicidal intent. McKlrov is supposed to have been suffering from tempo-ary mental aber ration due to ill health. He suffered a stroke of paralysis last summer, and nas showed symptoms several times of mental weakness since that time. He formerly was employed by the tele phone companies and street railway company in the capacity of lineman. Later he was employed by the Mc-O'ord-Kistler Mercantile company, but was compelled to resign about two months ago on account of his health, and went to St. Francis nospital. He was released from the hospital about three weeks ago much improved. The victim was 4 8 years old, and is survived by his wife and a daughter. Before the suicide he had been up stairs in his room. Coming down stairs he took a razor from a cup- hoard in the kitchen and drew it across his throat, severing tne jugular vein and the windpipe. The bloody razor was found on the floor a few feet away from the victim. Dr. O. F. Marcott was called im mediately after Mrs. McElroy discov ered her husband, but could not ar rive before the suicide was dead. The case was so plainly that of suicide that Coroner H. W. Bomgardner announced no inquest would be held. Dr. Sloan Will Surely Make the Race. A rumor to the effect that Dr. A. C. Sloan, Democratic candidate for rep the Democratic county central com mittee.

TO VOTE THE OLD WAY Court Knocks Out Chicago's Contract for Voting Machines. Springfield. 111., Oct. 22. Voting ma chines will not be used next month in Chicago. The supreme court Of Illinos today allowed the petition for a writ o mandamus to compel the election com missioners of Chicago to substitute paper ballots and the regulation ballot boxufl for mechanical contrivances recently pur chased. The decision abrogates a contract for the purchase of 1.000 machines at $1.0u0 each and leaves the board with 600 ma chines on hand for which It paid $450,000. Tests were made in court of a sample ma chine. It was claimed that a man coulf vote a split ticket in one minute by means of the machine but most of those wno attempted to do so in court took from two to three minutes to accomplish, this. Objections were also made to the ma chines in that thev did not permit a vo'er to "split" his ballot on presidential electors. BRESNAHAN IS FIRED. Roger P. Deposed as 3Ianager of Cardinals. ft.

The case first was tried in the sec ond division of the district court last February, and after working over a verdict two days the Jury reported that It was hopelessly hung, and was discharged. At that time the jury is said to have stood, 8 for the defense and 4 for the plaintiff for a reasonable amount of damages. The present case was turned over to the jury Friday afternoon, and the jurors spent Fri day afternoon, all day Saturday and all day Monday in considering the ver dict. With the present verdict answers to 79 special questions were returned, asked by attorneys for the defense. The questions had to do with the find ings of fact in the case relative to the fire and the liability of the defendants. Evidence in the case showed that Frederick L. Roe. the victim of the fire, was sleeping In a "blind" room, having no outside outlet, and opening only by a door on an inside hall. He had stopped to dress after having been aroused by the night clerk, wit nesses testified, and was discovered in half kneeling beside his bed. nearly dressed. The door was partly open, but it is believed the hall and his room were so full of smoke that he was bewildered. LADIES $5.oo. mr $6.00, Ts $7.00 K Tans for Jrtht.

TVLXj leaset wire report of the associated press. The State Journal Is a member of the .Associated Press and" receives the full day telegraph report of that great news or gan I rat ion for the exclusive afternoon (ubllcattoa la Topeka. The news Is received in The State Jour nal building over wires for this sole pur cose. Cheer up. Only two more 'weeks remain before election day rolls around. President Taft Is quite right in his declaration that a vote for the third party is a vote to help the Democrats on their way to success. Nor is a glimpse at the weather map riecessrry to formulate the certain prediction that November E will be a xnighty cold day for manv men. Reports are current that Russia may get into the Balkan war. They sound reasonable. Russia has never had Much luck in tackling anybody her size. Typhoons appear to occupy a place of prominence among the real lux uries. One of them recently cost the people of the Philippines some $25, 000,000. Some old-fashioned college boys are evidently in attendance at the Uni versity of Illinois. They celebrated a football victory by staging a riot at a theater. And it's about time that the local police declared war against the speed fiends and among the reckless pop-pop riders and autoists, and j.iy drivers as well. Conditions appear to be normal in Mexico. Latest reports from its cap ital are to the effect that another crisis has been reached In the affairs of the government. Authoritative reports are to the ef fect that the Balkan war has not been very serious as yet. Nor is there any reason to believe that it ever will; that is as far as actual fighting goes. Jack Johnson will probably realize before long that the heavyweight pugilistic championship of the world does not carry with it the right of its possessor to do exactly as he pleases. If woman's suffrage prevailed throughout the entire country, there would be little doubt as to who would be the next president. Woodrow Wil son has demonstrated his competency to sew on his own buttons. Mexico must be prolific with bridge3. Latest reports from that un fortunate country state that the rebels are still engaged in burning them. And they have been working steadily at that task for a couple of years. Fritz! Scheff appears to ba an un usual prima donna. She says she's an noyed at the newspaper notoriety that has been given to her troubles with her husband. Fritzi occupies the unique position of being the first actress to object to much perfectly good free advertising. Topekans who rake the leaves from their lawns and parkings at this sea son of the year and then burn them are destroying a most valuable fertiliz ing agency. Although the leaves can c&rcely be called an ornament to one's premises, they should be left on the parkings and lawns until next spring and then raked away. It will be useless for Norman Hap good. the retiring editor of Collier's, to case his eyes in tho direction of the chaut&uqua circuit. The performance In tho speechmaking line that he put on In Kansas showed him to be un flttel for such a career. Maybe he'll go into European txile with some of the other deposed revolutionary lenders. Of course, it all depends on whose ox is gored. Gentlemen who think it is politically proper for Kansans, ardently espousing the cause of the Bull Moose party, to run as candidates for office on the Republican ticket, see nothing but the height of political in consistency in the aititude of a news paper that is supporting Roosevelt and Hodges. Now that Collier's has made a sud den flop from Wilson to Roosevelt, it will have to stage some far.cy mental gymnastics to prove that itJ own argu ments were In serious errcr as to why Governor Wilson was the most desir able candidate for the presidency, and also on tho extreme weakness and in efficiency of Colonel Roosevelt's plan for handling the trust problem. From his cot in the hospital Colonel Roosevelt, through Senator Beveridge, attempted to prod Governor Wilson because nothing had been done In New Jersey during his governorship to prosecute certain of the big trusts which have their home there. Mr. Wilson replies most effectively through Senator O'Gorman that the Republi can majority in the legislature re fused to revise the corporation laws of that state so that the trusts could be effectively prosecuted, and that no state official can prosecute a trust for a breach of the federal statutes. PROSPERITY JS A FACT. A review of the financial and trade conditions throughout the country by Henry Clews, the New York banker, shows them to be most satisfactory and stable. This would scarcely be vhe situation were not prosperous limes a fact, and not a mere dream as some of the political pessimists Insist. As Mr. Clews says, American prosper ity is based upon a rock. And that rock, of course, is the wonaerful crops I hat have been produced this year in these United States. Writing on these topics, Mr. Clews says: "Monetary conditions continue an Important factor in the stock market. The west appears to have made more than ample preparations for the pres ent crop movement, the Inability of the railroads to handle the grain crops having reduced the demands for money to smaller proportior.s than ex pected. Southern demands upon New York have not thus far beer, excessive. It is again to be noted that each year the interior becomes more and more able to finance Its own seasonal re quirements. Nevertheless, an active demand for money is fissured for some lime to come. Crop demands must of necessity exceed all precedent, and an inevitable trade expansion will also Impose a heavier burden upon the monetary supply. It is somewhat un fortunate that gold imports should have been arrested by the foreign situat'on. We have been obliged to take back $25,000,000 to $30,000,000 securities in place of gold. In all probability, however, the Influx of the precious metal is only temporarily de layed. Now that the financial crisis in Europe is about over there will be less difficulty in our purchasing of gold. Our foreign trade balance is running largely in our favor. Our exports of cotton and grain promise to be heavy and we are still shipplr.a unusual quantities of manufactured articles; the activity of trade -n foreign coun tries stimulating the demand for American manufactures, in spite of high prices. Moreover, Europe will probably buy back a portion of the stocks recently sold, now that the Balkan outbreak is likely to be re stricted by the great powers, and also for the reason that American securi ties are in a stronger position and offer better returns than any other available in the foreign markets. "American prosperity is based upon a rock. We have the finest harvest on record No class in the country today !s enjoying such general prosperity as the farmers. In nearly all sections of the country and for nearly every agricultural product large yields and high prices prevail. To such an ex tent is this true that a great deal of Jealousytoward the farmer Is already developing, and he is becoming more and more accused of being the chief cause for the present high cost of liv ing. Doubtless he will receive more blame than he is entitled to; although he is guilty of no crime beyond secur ing the best prfce under free compe 'ition for his product that he is able to secure; a right clah-ied by every producer. In due season this condi tion will no doubt correct Itself. Al ready there is a movement back to the farm, and those already in the field are seeking to increase their product by better and more scientific methods of agriculture. This Is the only true method of lowering the cost of living, viz: more product and less waste. Not a few products have al ready declined considerably in price, wnich should somewhat moderate the present high cost of living. Meat nrnducts. however. continue high. cattle, which will require a year or two to overcome." MEXICO'S TRIPLE REBELLION'. The Madero government has three separate and distinct rebellions to def?l with now, and two have p.-ovod quite enough to tax its resources to the ut most. Fortunately for tha little presi dent and his associates, the revolt led by General Orozco has so n.r bnl-on down that It amounts to little more than brigandage which lnfe;-a a iai-ge part of the northern border stat.'s cf Sonora and Chihuahua, but it still de mands the employment of strensr. mili tary forces and is a constant c'rain upon the national treasury. At the revolt in the north has li st ground, however, the disno ite.it and disloyalty in the south have mcrejuf.d, if surface conditions slow h? Lie state of the country. The cruel n' -hiring outlaws led by Zapata ld.7o m.-idj bloody forays into the districts vvith'n a few miles of the city of Mexico, a.i.l so far they have evaded o ,v--fwme the troops sent against thsm. The Za patistas are nearly all Indians, full blooded or mixed, and thov know the rough and difficult country in which they carry on their operiuons so wi-il that armies from other parts of t-:.o are at a great disadvantage ir the mountain strongholds of the rebel.-?. Now comes the new rebeidn i:i '."era Cruz, led by General Feiix Di:.7.. a. nephew of the old dictator or Mexico.

With three rebellions' to .--ope witu at to.e same time, a stronger and m-:-e ex perienced ruler than President Mptlero might easily find himself ovsr burdened. It is a crisis which will fat the re sources of the government u the ut most and put the personal ahllUI2 cf Mudero himself to the pr.jf. as they rtve not yet been tried, for the new revolt will undoubtedly pt fresh life sn; confidence into Orozcis follova-s and arouse the bandits under i2at:iita to further outrages and still bold-'r raids In the vicinity of the federf.1 capital. JOURNAL ENTRIES When a man gets the worst of it he usually deserves It. Mot folk seem to go on the theory that promises are made to be broken, t Just because nobody loves a fat man it doesn't follow tha.. everybody loves every thin man. People attribute their vices to heredity, but claim their virtues are their cwn handiwork. With the majority of people, noth ing appears to be more difficult than to answer a question with "yes" or "no." JAYHAWKER JOTS There are suggestions that only ath letic girls should be chosen for wives, says the Hutchinson News.

Prisoners in the county jail in Junc tion City tried to escape last week, but were "thwarted" by the guards, notes Charlie Blakesley of the Kansas City Star, and he adds: Their chances of getting away were good, too; as blood hounds were on the outside ready to lead the pursuers in the wrong direc tion. The Kansas City girl who wrote her name on the shell of an egg which she packed recently in search of romance, will probably think less cf romance hereafter, says the Ottawa Herald.

"When you take to voting," said Peter Doubt in a threatening voice to his wife, "I'm going to run around with chorus girls." But she doesn't seem to be worried about it.

You've got to play, or you'll wish that you could get out of the inclosure. Neither wealth nor poverty is an excuse. The wealthy man who does not play the game becomes a human oyster, and is shortly swallowed by some one who likes bivalves on the half shell. (Copyright, 1912, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Some Difficult Words. Shakespeare and Dickens are by no means the only authors who are dif ficult to put into other tongues, trans lators of the Bible often complaining of the obstacle they have to surmount. How, for example, render such a phrase as "whiter than snow" in the language of equatorial Africa, where snow is unknown? In the language of the Lengua. a tribe in Paraguay, they were obliged to translate the word "eighteen" "chog-emek-wakthla-mok-emmik-antanthal-ma," the liter al meaning of which is "finished my hands, pass to my other foot-three." H. Ottewill Bruce cites1 the case of a translator in New Guinea, who, get ting stuck with the phrase "Far be it from me to do this thing," consult ed an intelligent catechumen, who gave him tho precise idomatic eq,uiva lent in a phrase that meant "May I speak to my mother-in-law before I will do this thing!" For it seems that in New Guinea it is an unpardonable sin for a man to speak to his wife's mother. A book could be filled with curiosi ties of translation. It is, however, far easier to criticise than to write a translation, and any one who has had to do much of such work must take off his hat to masters like Gilbert Murray for his Euripides, to Charles Eliot Norton for his Dante, to Jow ett for his Plato, to Swinburne and Rossetti for their bits from Villon, to Mallarme for his- verses of Poe, to Sir Christopher North for his Plutarch this the more extraordinary because a translation not from the original, but from Amyot's French version.

(By Donald Allen.) After the Shaxamaeon river leaves the town of Brunswick it makes a graceful bend for a mile or more, and then comes Little Fails. Half a mile below comes Big Falls, and then the river is clear again. In the bend of the river was the manor house of the rich widow Bur nett, and the river view from various rooms was fine. The only craft on the water were rowboats and canoes. There were other fine houses above and below. Why for several years the motor- boat did not make its appearance and send its chugs echoing over the water to cause complaint and indignation was sorely and simply because young Mr. Hamilton Frayne was a student at a college 50 miles away. .A week after his graduation he came to Bruns wick to take a position in a bank and to live with a cousin below the bend in the river. Miss Phyllis Burnett was the only child of the rich widow, and at 19 she was oorsidered the belle of the Thev said of the mother that she was a snob; they said of the daughter that she had great good common sense. The motner consweicu it the thing to have nerves. The doc tor who attended her and had his bills 1 M paid without dispute, also tnougnt n the thing. Having nerves and money. Mrs. Burnett got ths idea that she must have her way about things. She had it, as a rule, but there were times when the daughter stood against it and refused to yield. It makes little difference how Mr. Hamilton Frayne ar-d Miss Phyllis Burnett came to know each other. The proper people to know each other always drift across each other's patn sooner or later. By and by Mr. Frayne called at the manor house. He was of good family ana iainy wco.imj, and he found the mother very friend ly. It was after two or three calls that the moter boat came. Its ad vent was a sensible move on the part of the owner. It was far nicer to go by the river th.-n the highway, and outside of business hours it could give others recreation. The motor boat and a case of nerves came together. One morning at break ,j r. find fast the fault with the cook, and the cook, who had a ticket in a lottery and expected to draw the capital prize, talked back in an independent way. Anger tears nerves! Now, motner, be caim: aumuman- ed Phvlis. "Oh, yes, that's you! I must put up with everything and forget that 1 srle nerve in my whole body!" "But giving way won't do any good. Finish your breakfast and take a walk and try to think of something else. Why not let me drive you to town?" "And me die on the way! Phyllis, you have no consideration for me. You don't even know what nerves are. After I am dead you will have a great deal to think of. Where's my smelling bottle? I must go to bed and suffer all day!" Phyllis passed out on the river veranda and the tearful mother up stairs. Ten minutes, and then: "Chuff! Chuff! Chuff! Whistle!" A handsome motor boat steered by a young man came into view irum below, and the girl waved a greeting and said to herself: "It's Mr. Frayne. Isn't It jolly that he's got his boat!" "My stars, what's that? Phyllis, where are you?" exclaimed the moth er as she came hurrying downstairs. "Why, it's Mr. Frayne's motor boat, and he's going to town on business. Isn't it fine?" "Chuff! chuff! chuff!" "And that horrid noise!" was asked as the mother put her fingers in her ears. "That's what they call the exhaust. I believe." "And it's rightly named. It will ex haust me in a week if he runs that boat up and down. He must not do it he must not. You must tell him that he cannot must not run that chuff-chuff boat up and down here!" "Why, mamma, I wouldn't dare to teh him that." was the reply. "Then I will! Call him up on the tele pi one for me." "I will not! "Then I will write him a letter!" "I wont let you mail it!" "Weli, call up my doctor then. If he orders the nuisance stoppjl, then It's g.vt !c be stopped." Dr. Williams came dojin in response t th rressage, and w.in he had beer f id the part'culars he purged bis lips and -ep'led: "I 1 ave told jou, Mri. Burner-., that arytn'nt; that irritates and snnoys you Tn1:- I 'r l:iired.'' "Then the motor boat must go!" "And we should forbid the factor whistles uptown from blowing!" added Miss Phyliis. as she looked the doctor straight in the eyes. It. was the mother that p-- id the bills, and big ones, too, but ha did not wi-ih to antagonize the daughter, and he said: "I have no doubt that if the yonns man is spoken to he will cease to run th" boat." Miss Phyllis didn't propose that any one should have the chance of speaking about what she called such a silly mat ter, but three or four evon'.ngs later Mr Frayne called, and the mothar hardly waited a minute before intro ducing the subject. "Why. the boat hardly gi- es out t dozen 'chuffs' in front cf vour house." he replied in his astonishme-it. "But they are very objectionable." "Oh, if that is the case we must do away wth them." "We certainly must. My doctor says I must not be annoyed." "Certainly not. I will see an engin-r about It right away. I think the 'chuts' car be stopped." He wanted to add that if they couldn't be he would either sell tnj boat or have the river removed; but he was a diplomatic young man. After the mother had retired there was an: apology from Phyllis, and a t-.onsplracy was entered into. Conspiracies habe been ertered into time and again to frighten rheumatic patients off their beds, and to cure women of their fright at meet ing a cow, and they have always turn ed out beneficially. For three days more tbe "chuff, chuff" was heard, and -hen Miss Phyllis coaxed the mother to take a little row on the water. The doctor was telephoned to and he pursed up hfs lips and replied that it. misht be a good thing. Of course, he charged both for the pursing- and the advising. Rowed by the daughter, the mother leaned back and closed. her e5'es and be came a martyr. The time p.'ssed and she was getting to the point of being burned at the stake, when there was a scream from Miss Phyllis. She had been reading for the last few minutes while the boat drifted, and suddenly the oars were gone. "What is it? What 5s It?" cried the mother. "Unless we can recover thu ears we shall drift down and go oer he fat's!" "Oh, my heavens! Get them, daughter get them!" "But they are fifty feet ahead of us!" "Then scream scream!" "It would do no good. Tnere's no one in sight." Plump went the mother Into the oot tom of the boat.

(Copy- Ve"1- "y Jvicuiure s .Newspaper Svr. dicate.) r EVENING CUAT BY RUTH CAMERON. Once upon a time I happened to nave partial charge of the renting of an apartment. As in almost every ex perience that brings me into contact with my fellow men and women, I found much to interest, amuse and instruct me. But the individual who left the greatest impression on my mind was neither interesting nor amusing, nor instructive, except in the capacity of a bad example. She was a girl of eighteen. Sh3 came with her mother to inspect tho apartment. Perhaps I should say that her mother came with her. From the moment they began to make comments it was evident that the mother was not used to even the modest degree of luxury which the apartment represented nnH it -n-n. Simultaneously evirlont (hot u daughter would stop at no length of fJenefs or discourtesyto her mother io inue mis ract. Twice she flatly tuiiiraaiciea ner mother, again and again she caught her up sharply, an i continually she interrupted her. "How about hard wood floors?" said the mother. "Are they as easy to keep clean as carpets?" "How ridiculous mother," said the daughter sharply 'one would think you never saw a hard wood floor. Of course they arr much easier to take care of." "Electricity is pretty expensive, said the mother. "I was rather hop ing we would find an apartment that was piped for gas." At this har daughter cast a perfectly withering glance at her mother. She evidently belonged to that class of people who think it is the one deadly sin to admit that anything costs too much. I wish you wouldn't talk such nonsense mother," she said rudely. "Electricity is just as cheap if you use it properly and anyhow I shouldn't be at all con tented with just gas." All through the interview it was quite evident that the girl felt sh was making a good impression by at- tiiFuiis iu tnace ner motner. Needless to say she was not. Instead, I set her down in my mind as one of the rudest, crudest young girls I had ever met. For to my mind there is no mis take that stamps- a young man or wo man as underbred more quickly than such an assumption of superiority and such display of rudeness toward those to whom they owe all reverence and kindness. I once knew a young lad from th country whom I thought an excep tionally good product of our American education until, after giving me the pleasure of meeting his fine old father and mother, he made the fatal mis take of apologizing in their presence I ior ineir country ways and their grammar. It is often true that the second gen eration is superior to its el.Ts in mat ters of education. of superficial breeding, and in that air of suphistioa tion and accustomedness to luxury which we all like to cultivate. Bvt that does not mean that it is actual ly superior in things that count. .n1 furthermore, it behooves the second generation to remember that what ever superiority it has gained jvas probably given it through the efforts of the older folk. There may be some voung peo lie who would be quite indifferent to ih'i reminder that rudeness to their par ents is wrong and cruel, but sureiv there are none who will not be moved when I assure them that it is also un derbred and tacky.

There are many who will never make more than a bare living off their places, but the majority are men who go about farming Just as a business man goes about his business. It isn't necessary to go farther than the fro-.t gate to discover which are the buslnesi larmers and which the shiftless ones. Tne farmer who is really farming will b found now with one or two well-filled tilos, Eeveral neatly topped stacks ot hav, his corn cut and shocked, and pos sibly winter wheat showing all around the shocks. His house is freshly painted and his barns and outbuildings are In fine repair. There are no mowing ma chines standing out in the front yard, and his mail box isn't hanging to Its post by a rusty nail. Everything about his placc spells prosperity and his farm Is not listed with the real estate agencies fo sale. This is a picture of the home of a real farmer. And when you meet the owner of this place face to face, you are surprised to find that he is a very oral nary sort of man to talk to. To yoi-r astonishment he quickly convinces you that he doesn't know all about farming but is willing to learn. He is the man who sends for the farm expert to heip l.im set out an orchard or establish a field of alfalfa. And he tests his seirf corn also and buys his live stock with great care. The other kind of farm.-r needs no description you have met him and seen his place. Sit down at his table and you are served bread baked in tr.o city, milk that has soured bcause t pail was dirty, butter that is rancid a.id full of milk and water, potatoes sMpped from the Kaw valley, and coffee that came with a phonograph. His barn doi-rs are off, his silo hasn't been built because he doesn't believe in silos, his house has had Just one coat of paint since it was built, and his farm machinery is not un der cover. And he Is a remarkably intel ligent man; you are surprised at his knowledge of current events and of agri culture. He foresees great thinsrs for this country when the tariff is properly ac justed. As to farm experts, they are a fake. He can convince you In a few min utes as you spread store jelly over bakei's bread and sip at the premium coffee, that he has forgotten more about agriculture than this farm expert, fresh from col lege, will learn in a lifetime. As you open his "farmer alliance" gate and jolt over the much abused boulders in his driveway, you conclude that perhaps he has been too careless about forgetting, and has forgotten all he ever know about farming. Leavenworth Post. MEXICO'S NEED. We have come to have our doubts about Mexico being any better off by getting rid of Diaz, and putting up Madero, or any one else in his place. It will only be a few months after one man is at the head until some self-appointed patriot will get up A rebellion and get a few thousand poor ignorant fools to follow him !n order that he may live In idleness after peace has been estabished. This seems to be the great fault with most of the Latin-American countries. They are willing to let their crops and houses go to the winds while they get a gun and follow some cut throat leader who styles himself a patriotic general. What they all need is some good strong government to take control of them and let them understand that this guerilla war fare must stop, and If they won't stop to lay on the mailed hand until they get all the war they went. Belle Plalne News. FROM OTHER PENS A TRUE PEACE GUARANTEE. President Taft, aboard the yacht Mayflower, as he passed between ti twin lines of naval craft on the Hud son river reviewing the highest de velopment of warship building, and beholding the most powerful American armada ever assembled, was looking upon our most potent guarantee of peace. The war vessels, arrayed in a line of fifteen miles along the Hud eon, 127 in all, symbolized as much this country's Industrial and commer cial' status among the peoples of the earth as they do the power of the United States to prevent foreign ag gressions and to redress wrongs per petrated. Our naval force is compet ent to defend our land and flag and to uphold the traditions of its gloriou past. From the time, 130 years ago. when John Paul Jones convinced t:ie world that 13 colonies In America had a navy superior in effectiveness, if in ferior in size, to that of Great Brit ain, Americans have been proud of their prowess at sea. In the war of 1812 the most .brilliant series of vic tories reached a climax in Perrv's triumph on Lake Erie. From th time of Barry, on the Delaware, to that of Dewey at Manila and Schle at Santiago, the American navy has proved itself second to none in those qualities which triumph over quan tity. Our modern navy dates bac.c about a quarter of a centurv. To Wil liam J-l. Chandler and Hilary A. Hcr- ueri, as secretaries ui the navy, must be given credit for taking the first steps in a movement which fitted this country for the decisive victory of 1S9S. Since the latter date the most stupendous warship building has pre vailed among the powers. While not burdening itself with the costs, which European nations have shouldered to keep up in the race, America still hns adhered to the wise policy of building two first-class vessels every year, until a Democratic house of repVesentatlves at the last congress cut the numb'.: to one. Hence two great armadas, flying the American flag, are now mobilized for nubile view one nt New York and the other at Manila. In these powerful fleets we may f-el the pride inhering in the conviction that, as a nation, we have taken every precaution against war by being pre pared for it. Washington Herald.

Oct. 2Z The champion Red Sox have gone to their homes with more money than they ever received before for six months" work. Some of them, in fact, have made small for tunes the baseball season just past. For instance, Jake Stahl, the mana ger, has reaped a harvest of about $35,000 for his season's work. His sal ary is $10 000. His share in the world's series is the same as that of each Eed Sox player $4,024.59. He has a financial interest in the club, the amount of which is withheld, but it is estimated to be from 5 to 10 per cent. The club earned fully $300,000 this year in the regular season and $150,000 in the post-season games. If Stahl has a 5 per cent interest he has received about $20,000 dividends. At that he has avoided advertising propositions and the stage. He received a motor car from Boston rooters. Had he chosen to appear in vaudeville he could have added a few more thousands to his bank account. Speaker drew $.000 salary, $1,000 for waiting stories of the worlds series for newspapers. $2.C00 for lending his name to advertising propositions, -which, with his share in the post-season gate, made his receipts about $l-.-C0O. with more to come. Further, he was given a motor car for being the most useful batsman of the American y g Similarly Joe Wood has earned about $1S 500. No member of the team has received less than $6,000 for his sea son's work.

About fifty Kansas sportsmen met in Wichita to dcuss the revision of the present fish and game laws. After a heated meet ing made largely by the presence ot Professor L. L. Dyche, state fish and game warden, a committee of eight was appointed to draft a new game ;aw and present it to known sports r en throughout the state. W. A. Avers cf Wichita is named chairman of the committee. Professor Dvche was blamed per fnr.allv r.v many sportsmen present for the present game laws and his pres ence' at the meeting was the cause of manv jointed questions and assertions hei-crnade by other persons present. Professor Dyche explained his work In connection with the law and the meeting closed in harmony when he hr.d agreed to help the sportsmen get any sort of a law passed which is sat lsfactcrv to them.

Coach Hargis has developed a great scoring machine at the College of Empor.i this year. )n four games the Empor ians have rolled up 30 touchdowns, 24 goals and one safety for 206 points and have not been scored against. The defeated teams are: Campbell, Pitts burg, Fairmount and Baker. PLAYED TOGETHER 13 YEARS. Leach, Clarke and Wagner Made 5.905 Hits. Pittsburg, Pa.. Oct. 22. "When Pittsburg traded Tommy Leach and "Lefty" L?ifield to the Chicago Cubs for Artie Hotman and "King" Cole, one of the greatest trios of baseball players known in the history of the game was lorever broken. This trio was composed of Honuj Wagner, Fred Clarke and Tommy Leach, the 'Big Three." It was formed thirteen years a?o, when m the season of 1S99 Tommy Leach, a fast boy, was sent to play third base for the Louisville Colonels, which was then on the National League circuit. For thirteen years these three gre?. I players hung together, electrifying the baseball world, winning four pennants and one world's championship. After playing together in Louisville one year the National League circuit was cut down to e'ght clubs and Louisviile was consolidated with Pittsburg n 1S00, and Fred Clarke was made man ager. In 1901, 1902 and 1903 Pittsbu'g won the National League pennant. In 1P03 Pittsburg lost in the woilcs championship series to the Boston Americans, after winning three of the first four games. Clarke, at the head of the peerless trio, kept on, and in 1909 again won the pennant and beat Detroit for the world's championship. Some idea of the heart breaking pace led ry these men can be had from the fact that 5.905 times they hit rafely after coming to bat no mor? than 19043 times. Of these 5.905 hits the total bases were 8.300. ani 94" were two baggers. S48 three bag gers, and 155 times their clouts were goad for the whole circuit. How they ran bases can be told no better thai: the record of 1.159 steals shows. These great players combined handled 16. 530 chances out of a total of 17,538. KANSAS INJURED LIST BIG. Football Players Show Effects of Hard Contests. Lawrence, Kan.. Oct. 2 2. Twenty five badly battered Kansas university iootball players returned from Des Moines where they went down to de feat before the Drake university team on Saturday. The reverse in what was the first Missouri valley conference game on the Kansas schedule is harder to bear, because it was tha first time th? Jayhawkers had ever met defeat at the hands of Drake.

With fifty seven bowling teams assured as local entries and nearly as many more pledges from outside Kansas City, the Middle West Bowling tournament promises to surpass in size and amount of prize money any of the preceding five tourneys held under direction of the association. The middle west tourney, next to the tournaments of the American Bowling congress. Is the most impor tant national event in bowling. For this year entries have been thrown open to the world. Because of this, assurances that at least 5ix Chicago teams will participate have been re ceived. There also will be teams from Denver, twenty from St. Louis. Omaha, Minneapolis. St. Paul. Des Moines, St. Joseph and from various towns in Mis souri. Kansas, Illinois, Iowa and Ne braska. Entries for the middle west tour ney will close November 19. The tour ney will continue thirteen days, from November 27 to December 9 Accord ing to George C. Lowe, secretary of the tournament, the applicants for en try who come from a distance will be favored with the most desired places in the schedule, the week end follow ing Thanksgiving day. New Alleys for Tournament. It is probable that the cash prizes will aggregate $7,500. Practically all of the entrance mor.ey is to be de voted to prizes. Instead of medals, which heretofore have been given as trophies to winners in var'ous events, ihe tourney association this year will give gold watches engraved individual ly. The tournament is to be held on the Grand alleys, which are but five months old and considered the best and most costly alleys west of Chi cago. The alleys will be closed a week before the tourney begins. They will be cress planed and no bowler will be allowed to use them previously to the opening of the tournament. In this way. the average bowler is given as much chance to win as the more ex perienced one. while none has the ad vantage of familiarity with the alleys. It is expected that at least 150 five men teams, 250 two-men teams and 400 individual bowlers will take part In the tourney. The entrance fee is ?5 for each individual In each event. Entries are being receive 1 by Mr. Lowe at the Grand alleys. High School Teams Tie. Emporia. Kan., Oct. 22. The Kan sas State Normal High school and the Eureka High school played a 7 to 7 tie game here on Normal field Satur day afternoon. The game was slow and uninteresting, and the loose play ing of the teachers prevented them from running up a h'gher score. Wk Mm Copyright Hart Srhaffncf Marx Work towards shaping- the Blue football team for Saturday's game has begun and the squad will be sent through a vigorous course of train ing this week. With Assistant Coach Dexter putting the backfield through the paces, Coach Driver can now turn his attention to the line. And this is needed. The line needs plugging in a number of places. Center is weak and the ends are not satisfactory. That there will be a complete reor- i ganization of the line by the Satur day game is not unlikely. Several of the players carry bruises and minor injuries resulting from the Saturday game, but practice will re move the soreness resulting from the contest. The injuries are only what might be expected from a hard fought game of football. The local players made the game harder than it really was. letting down after securing the i touchdown that brought them victory. They didn't play anything like the game they put up in Denver, accord ing to those who saw" both games. The backfield will be shifted, if the workouts show the plans of the coach McXeish may be used at quar ter instead of Smiley. "Kaek" erred in calling the plays at the Liberty game, according to the expert reports from that contest. In this way he prevented the team from scoring ad ditional touchdowns, according to the same reports. In case McXeish plays quarter. Smiley will be used at the half back job. Trobert is also being worked out at quarter. The game Saturday with Ottawa should be another step in the march towards a winning team. Ottawa should prove a fairly easy victim, al lowing for added improvement this week. Pittsburg won a 6 to 0 vic tory over the Ottawans Monday. But Ottawa will not play a Pittsburg Nor mal game against Washburn. Rest as sured on that point. Every one of I these teams point for Washburn and it is likely substitutes were used In the Monday game to save the stars for Saturday's Topeka contest. "Beat Washburn" is the slogan in every one of the Kansas colleges. The manufacture of dope really b -gins Saturday. The Aggies and Kan sas will mix and while the Manhat taners didn't show much against Ne braska count upon them to show strong against the defeated heroes from Mt. Oread. Washburn plays both of these teams later in the sea son and the score in the Saturday con test will be of interest to thoe who follow the fortunes of the Sons of Ichabod. Following the game wia Ottawa the Blue squad goes to Em poria for a battle with the teacheis. Then the scores can be compared with the score made by the Aggies an'i a little more dope compiled. Hatcher and Steuwe. guard and fullback on the Kansas team will he out of the gr.me a short time on ac count of injuries received in the Draka contest. This weakens Kaflsas. Kan sas was a little early with the "All Victorious" dope. The advance in formation on the game was that Drake had an easy team to beat, there be'r.i only three dangerous men on ciie team. Something seems to have slipped in the dope. And October 1 ip nearly always a little early in the season to spring the all victorious thing. It was too much like Topeka s pennant winning team of last Mar:ii and April. Mosse claims to have found a kick er. Burnham, a six foot guard, is said to have bn discovered to be a boot?r of natural ability during the Dralie game. Kansas has been weak on the kicking end of the game. And the dope now sent out is that Mosse and Frank have learned that they must de pend less upon the old style game. Open formations are likely to be the drill upon McCook field from now on. The old style game kicked back at the! Jayhawkers In the Drake contest. j Missouri lost to Ames by a larger score than Kansas lost to Drake. Of course it 3 the irony ct fate that Ames and Drake do not meet this year. It's a little early yet to try to d.-re Kansas and Missouri. The Drake game was looked upon in Kansas in much the same manner In which some of the wise ones are now inclined to look upon Saturday's game between Washburn aud Ottawa. But Wash burn had best be prepared to fight for victory Saturday. Meanwhile a good crowd should gf out and witness Washburn's initial at DROP KICKS Take Particular Notice of the striking new models (2 of which are pictured here and patterns featur ed in suits and overcoats at $25.00.

Superintendents Decide to Charge for Bread and Butter. THEY m INCLUDE CREAM Follow Out Plan Adopted Re cently in New York. Other Items of Interest in the Traffic World. Denver, Col., Oct. 22. And now it is on the dining cars that Old High Cost of Living will take another crack at the ultimate consumer! Take it from the American Associa tion of Dining Car Superintendents, who .are holding convention at the Albany hotel. They are the ones that Alt passing the word around. They say they can't help it; that they are in nowise implicated in the machina tions of the dread High Cost of Liv ing, and that they are as firmly grasp- ed in its grip as the rest. However, nevertheless, and just the saale ne American Association of r Superintendents is prepar- "'5 ciidige Hie patrons on travel ing dining rooms an extra bit of change for bread, butter and cream. That is one of the things plotted beg pardon considered in one of tht convention pow-wows. In the near future the dining car superintendents will follow the lead of the New York and Chicago hotels and put an extra punch in the traveler's meal check for the bread and the but ter, and even the cream. What the waiter leaves in the traveler's pocket bock will pay for those extras that never before have teen charged for. The superintendents are unanimously for it. so, backed by the hearty sup port of O. H. C. of L., there seems no hope that there'll be even half a chance for the traveler. And they reiterate that they can't help it; that it must be done. Think of the dreadful and awful expense the railroads are put to in serving meals on the diners, they will" tell you, smil ingly. And consider, if you please, that a great many travelers nearly bankrupt the railroads by making a full meal on coffee (10 cents) and bread and butter. (And this despite the fact that menus cheerfully announce "no checks for less than 25 cents"). Also contemplate that the scenery viewed from the dining car window is free, absolutely gratis and be thank ful. Also remember that the regulation scale of tips for the waiters positively will not be advanced, at least not for awhile. And still smiling, the superintendents ask you to consider that thing9 are not so bad after all. George L.

Neb., Oct. 22. It will be several years before the Burlington's new low grade freight line to the northwest will be complete and up to the plans made tor that long stretch of transportation way. Several grades must be leveled, two or three tunnels must be bored and a (Treat deal of new grade and track placed tn commission before plans will Have been carried out. Millions have been spent on the project already and millions more must be used before it will become a leality. A long stretch of track must be built in Nebraska and Wyoming, and a new rrad must be worked down to the capacity of an old line for handily freight. When all of this Is compleiwi the new line will be practically the same length of the line now in use. Only the grades will lie better. Service has not been established on the seventy miles of track laid by the Bur lington between Tbermopolis and Powdrr river. Construction trains are operated over the line, while it is being surfaced, and it Is probable no further service win be established until the line is opened next spring. GAIN" IX GROSS EARNINGS.

Robert Barr was as well known in America as England. He was educated at Toronto and was an honorary M. A., of the University of Michigan. At one time he was con nected with the editorial staff of Hie Detroit Free Press. A man who was presumably Insane fairly terrorized a whole neighborhood in Quinton Heights late yesterday af ternoon. The man was Samuel V. Griffin, and he is said to have been chasing his neighbors and anyone who crossed his path with a big, ugly look ing knife, at the same time shouting and screaming at everybody. Com plaint was filed in the probate court late in the afternoon charging him with being insane, and he was arrett ed by Deputv Sheriffs Josiah Ros3 and Hal Norton late in the evening. He made no trouble when arrested. Neighbors believe that Griffin is a "dope" fiend, and that he is crazy only when under the influence of a drug.

Believing his daughter is held a pris oner in some bunk car here, by Mexi cans who are believed to have taken her from near her home in Lawrence. Charles W. Johnston is searching the Mexican camps in and near Topeka. Nearly wild with grief, he believes the missing girl is being mistreated by the j foreigners. especially Juan Morales. This Mexican is said to have lured her j away from her father's house. Since that time she has not been seen, i The charge of the father is all the more revolting because of the weak mentality of the girl. She is pretty, aged 20 years and her name is Mary. She met the Mexican in Lawrence and the father is certain Morales has lured her into a bunk car where she Is kept prisoner. Ali day Monday the officers assisted Johnston in his efforts to locate his daughter. Various Mexican camps were visited and thoroughly searched. But the girl was not found. The search is being continued today. DEATHS ANDRJNERALS, The funeral of Robert W. McElroy, who died Monday, will be held at the resi dence at 1710 Harrison street at 3 o'clock Wednesday.

"Here have one cf mine." "All right thanks." Thus Suzanne to Charlie Trevor in the "Freedom of Suzanne" running at the Majestic this week. To see, well, Nazimova, for instance, smoke cigar- j ettes is something to make one gasp, j They are selected, lighted, finished and i thrown away on the instant. Anne Bronaugh, on the other hand, touched one with hesitancy, poised it daintily between two fingers ,and held it out to be lighted! In all probability they were cubebs, anyhow. She realized her mistake in a second, and stuck it boyishly in ono corner of her mouth, puffed twice, and aiscarded it with relief. On the cigarette duet hangs the plot of an amusing comedy. Charles Tre vor, bewildered by the pranks of his incorrigible little wife, decides to meet her on her own ground smoke with her. flirt with her, even divorce her if necessary. Suzanne, given her free dom, reforms, of course. The play has a dash of pathos to give it spice, and a five-minute villain for "pep." The slogan of Topeka stock patrons is, "Give us comedy. or give us naught." This week they have what they like a funny, frothy piece with pretty costumes and plenty of jokes. Anne Bronaugh as the fascinating but naughty Mrs. Trevor, Jack Roscoe as her husband, Mabel Cullen as the sleepy secretary, E. P. Jerome as the risque uncle. Jack Connolly as the rheuamtic lord, are all very good. A. L. H. At the Novelty. The first show at the Novelty this week was viewed and applauded by a crowded house. The audience liked the show, so there's nothing more to be said. Comedy dominates the bill and music is relegated to the wings. Ralph Connors, ventriloquist, is the class of the bill He has burnished up an act as old as Mother Goose and makes it sparkle with wit. He "gets by" with his work and his words as smoothly as rippling silk. The Eckert musical trio are fairly good. They play the harp and first and second violin. The Schoenes Kids in a rough house school comedy pleased the audience immense ly and had to respond to curtain calls. Chas. Bennington. the monopede dancer, is exceedingly clever. He does things on one leg that most men coulcl not do if they had as many legs as a centipede. His high kicking and ac robatic feats are thrillers. Prevost and Brown, comedy gymnasts, close the bill. They introduce cork-screw,. Ro man candle somersaults that amazed their audience.
