I "Some of the greatest policies on j which I have set my heart, are just now coming to a focus," declared the; president. "The period of reconstruc- tion began when I took office, but we; have yet to finish the work. The steel frame work has been erfctedi but we mu-et now put in the floors and ceilings. I say that it would be can- j gerous to change the whole foice of! workmen at this crucial period. The president declared the tariff was i the real issue of the campaign. "Had I signed the tariff for revenue on!" bills submitted to me by the uemocrattc congress, he declared, j "the present era of prosperity would not be here today. The business v.orid i would not have been able to adjust! itself to those bills for many years, j And even the present prosperity is not j great enough to act as a shock ab- i I sorber to a Democratic admiristra-i tion."- Throughout 1913 the president de-: dared prosperity would continue, oo matter which political party triumphed and it would receive another impetus1 when the Panama canal was opened.

NO HOPE FOR HIFillGATES OF HEAVEN Vice President Sherman's Death a 3Iatter of Honrs. When He Awoke This Morning He Was Delirious. KIDNEYS REFUSE TO WOBKiTHEr ME TRIPPED BY FUMES There Is "o Favorable Symp tom Whatever, Doctor Says. He Has "ot Been Rational Since Monday i?ht. Utica, Oct. 30. At 2:30 o'clock a report came from Mr. Sherman's bed side that his condition was still mosi critical and no hope was held out by Dr. Peck. His kidneys were still un acting and life was sustained appar ently only by the patient's great nat ural vigor. tTtiea. Oct. "0. "Vice President Sher man's death is a question of only a few hours," said Dr Peck when he left the Sherman residence at noon today. The vice president was delirious when he awoke for a few minutes early this morning. He then relapsed into a heavy sleep. It is not believed Mr. Sherman will survive the next 24 hours. Dr. Peck said that Mr. Sherman's kidneys had refused to act since 2 o'clock yesterday and that most of the time since his patient had been in a comatose condition. For a few minutes early today he was awake but was de lirious. He soon dropped off to sleep and has remained oblivious to the world since. He has not been rational since Monday night. Dr. Peck expects the end during this afternoon or tonight. At 1:45 o'clock a brief bulletin was Is sued from the home of Vive President Sherman that there had been no partic ular change in his condition and adding that "There is no facvorable symptom whatever." The afternoon bulletin on Sherman says there is no favorable condition i whatever. The attending physician i holds out no hope but says I it i3 impossible to determine when the! end will come. Information is not given out very freely but it i3 understood the comatose condition has continued practically unbroken throughout the! day and that the uraemia remains un- j changed. The extremely critical con- dition of the patient has caused many rumors; of the death of the vice presi- dent and the local newspaper officer i have been flooded with inquiries. I BIG navalIraft! Battleships Stewards Deliber-; ately Rob the Government, j Trap Is Set and a Confession Is Obtained. Washington. Oct. 30. A system oft graft in the commissary department of the navy which may reach every ship in the Atlantic fleet has been revealed by a secret investigation. Rear Ad miral Osterhaus today reported to the navy department that the investiga tion has resulted in the confession of G. T. Davis, chief commissary steward of the battleship Louisiana. Admiral Osterhau;;' s report is very brief and contains no details further than that Davis in his confession has implicated the stewards of other ships of the fleet at least six and several contractors. The investigation, which has been under way for several davs before a formal court of inquiry, has been conducted with the utmost secrecy. It is said that after Davis had been suspected of iliegal transactions in the handling of government supplies. Captain Wells of the battleship laid a trap in which, officials say. Davis was caught. Captain Wells arrested Davis and preferred charges against him to Admiral Osterhaus. The investigation bv the court developed not oniv the charges against Davis but what is said to be a system of illegal dealings by commissary stewards on many other ships. As In all cases of the kind, officials are reluctant to discuss the situation. The navy men are jealous of the hon or of their service and make no effort to conceal their chagrin at a revela tion of anvthins irregular. HE REMESTuTAFT. Adlai E.

Tii M-Kir ley tariff law was then in operation, and the Democratic vic tory of 1K was the emphatic proret of the people against the injustice and ov-pres-don of tnat tariff. It should be re mernbered that the panic bezan lang b -fore the Inauguration of Clevelan-l and as President Taft admits, two ear before tne enactment of the Wilson tar:ff. "The president says: 'The Wilson bill was in sighr above the h'Trizon the morn ing after the November election of Iv-ii. and eapiral be-uime alarmed, et''.' Stran-e. indeed, that the p-eople should suddeniy become alarmed on the mominz after election vt wnat they had done aftr ir-bherati-n by nearly a million votes ti:e 'lav before.

They are members f what is known as the Mothers' club. Tuesday afternoons every other week the mothers get together in the "gym" room of the Provident build ing. If they have small children they bring them along, too. For an hour they sit around tables sewing on aprons, sheets, pillow cases, towels, and articles for use in their respective homes. The materials they buy at the association at whole sale rates. At each fable is a helper who is ready to make suggestions as to the most approved method of sewing. It Rives many a mother her only chance to "visit" with her friends. There are -uomen who are members of the clut who go from the task of presiding ever a steaming wash tub, or whose family duties are so heavy that they are almost slaves to the household work. Then there are oth ers who are not so tied down to the daily routine of life, but who enjoy the social advantages offered through membership in the organization. It is just a good natured talkative group of women who delight in the regular meetings of the club. There is one member who is old and as dear a a post, yet who is made to feel at Imme. She enjoys the affairs us thor oughly as any of the younger women. The daughters. too, often are per suaded to accompany their mothers, iind they particularly enjoy the enter tainment that follows the sewing hour, and naturally all appreciate the "eats." At the close of the hour devoted to sewing, some social or church organ ization takes charge of things, and for an hour furnishes entertainment of a varied nature. Then as a closing fea ture they serve refreshments. The Minerva club had charge of af fairs Tuesday afternoon when the fourth meeting of the fall season was held. The luscious pumpkin pies and other good things to eat that were served were enough to make anyone's rncuth fairly water. At the present time the club has no officers, but at the next meeting offi cers will be chosen from the member ship. In the past the funds of the organization have been In the hands 01 ine omcers or tne Provident asso ciation. but it is the wish of Miss Mary Vose, the secretary of the association that a treasurer of the Mothers' club he appointed, so that the members! will always know precisely how much money there is on hand, and will- feel perhaps more free to spend it for flowers for the sick and for other purposes. It pays to be a member of tho ninh for when one of the mothers is ill her friends in the organization call on ..ci. iu ""one nre more cneer-, ful. Wile of Early Settler Dies.

Mo Oraw, more familiarly known to the baseball fans as "Muggsy" McGraw, whose generalship piloted the Giants to two National League champion ships and two near world's champion ships, showed last night in the Co lonial theater he can be as cool and collected on the stage as on the dia mond when the bases are full and none down. It was John J.'s first bow as an netor and he "got away with it." His monologue on "inside baseball" was bright and snappy. Things happened not on the program, for the house was packed with ball players and the fans who can't be shaken were on the job -with belis on, even the inevitable cow bell. McGraw got bouquets of renl roses, but he couldn't be outdone. He threw Verbal bouquets at "Matty" and Snod prass that kept the house in an up roar. Almost all the Giants were in bcxes. also several baseball writers. When McGraw walked on the stage he got a noisy ovation, lasting ten minutes. McGraw complimented Mathewson by saying there is no pitcher as great as Matty and there never will be. lie said he didn't blame Pnodgrass for j the loss ot the last game.

Luke Par sons, the "Human Ostrich," was op erated on in a Pittsfield hospital and the surgeons removed 132 nails, two keys, a buttonhook and a partly di gested three inch iron spike from his stomach and intestines. A nail hac punctured the abdomen and caused peritonitis. Parsons who is 40 years old, has had a craving for metal since he accident ally swallowed some shingle nails ten years ago. Jackrtives, spikes and can openers were regarded by him as spec ial delicac ies. Dast week he had symp toms of indigestion. He had had at tacks before but always found a rem edy by eati "g pieces of tin. a button hook r some keys. When he applied to the hospital for treatment he said his digestion was a little out of order. The surgeons are doubtful of his re covery. Smoke Lidzy's Hand Made. ,A mild, sweet smoke for 5c. Adv.

Trayer, of Menominee, Milth., a correspondent for a morning newspa per here, who a few hours before he died, wrote the editor telling him of his condition and asking that a friend who had aided him during his illness, be appointed in his place. Hid letter follows1: "To the Editor: When this reaches you I will be dead and '30' will be written to my account. It will be necessary for you to find a new cor respondent for this place.

In a statement made in Uoston he says: "Although Harvard undoubtedly has proved that it possesses considerable strength and is no longer an untried combination, a great deal must be ac complished before there is any chance of defeating Princeton next Saturday. "Last year Princeton surprised Har vard and won 8 to 6. This year the task of defeating the Tigers seems to be doubly hard and although Harvard is very eager to square accounts, the chances are all in favor of Princeton.

Then Wealthy Frenchman Purchased Xew York Jewelry House. New York. Oct. 30. Edward V. Fargis, a Frenchman who was one of the pio neers of '49, is dead at his home here of infirmities incidental to old age. He j made a comfortable fortune in the early days of California and on his return to New York purchased an interest in one of the biggest jewelry houses in the city J with which he remained up to the time I of bis death When the legislature meets in To peka this winter the board of city commissioners will have another proposition to present to them in an j effort to collect the $60,000 paving j debt of twenty-five years' standing. If the commissioners agree on the i plan that has been discussed at the j city hall, Topeka will make this (promise: Build a great white way j around the entire state house square at a cost of nearly $10,000 if the I state will pay the principal on the j $60,000 debt or $32,000. For years Topeka has been attempt ing to collect the cost of paving the streets around the state house in 1888. The state's share of this paving was $32,000. For twenty-five years this debt has accumulated Interest until today Kansas owes Topeka $60,000. This winter the city commissioners will make another attempt to collect the debt. It is planned to build a special lighting system around the state house grounds and give It to the state If the legislature allows the principal of the debt, or $32,000. Similar to City White Way. The city commissioners plan to build the great white way around the state house grounds to correspond with the lighting system now in use on Kansas avenue and West Ninth street. Poles of the same design and lights of like arrangement would be used. The lighting system would ex tend entirely around the grounds, or a distance of eight blocks. It is es timated that the cost would be nearly $10,000. This would net the city $22,000 on the original cost of the pavihg. The tax payers, however, have paid out a much larger amount than this on the original cost of the paving and the interest on the bonds. The attorney general in a written opinion has stat ed that legally the state is indebted to the city for the entire amount of $60,000, but the legislatures have not been able to look at it in this light. The Commercial club has made fre quent attempts to influence the state to place lights on the state house dome and improve the property. The plea of no funds greets their ambitions. It is believed at the city hall that the property can be improved to con siderable extent after a great white way lighting system Is installed. This is the reason given for the offer of the city to deduct the paving indebt edness to the bare principal and build a white way for the settlement of the bill. JENKINS A MEMBER. Topeka Chief of Police on the State Sanitation and Crime Committee. Chief of Police Morris C. Jenkins of Topeka has been appointed a member of the special uommittee on Sanitation and Crime of State Society of Criminal Law and Criminology. This organiza- tion was formed at Lawrence last May and intends to hold annual meetings, i The next meeting will be held in Law- j rence beginning December 5. Chief Jenkins is the only member or the committee who is engaged in criminal work. The other members are scientific men who have been working for the interest of humanity. The im portance of the position as chief of police probably influenced the selection of Chief Jenkins on such an Important i committee. The other members of the committee are Dr. J. C. Crumbine as chairman. Dr. J. J. Sippy of Belle Plains, Dr. D. M. Fisk of Topeka, and Dr. C. S. Coburn of Kansas City. The organization was formed for the purposeof making a critical study of methods and results of punitive justice in the state and to secure improve ments in the existing system of crim inal procedure. The special committee of which Chief Jenkins is a member is instructed to investigate sanitation in relation to petit crime. The next meeting will be held in con nection with the state conference of charities and corrections and with the conference of the probate judges of the state. These organizations have been formed and co-operate with the scientific men of Kansas University who have been making a study of such conditions. The meetings will be held in Lawrence December 5, 6 and 7. Chief Jenkins will accept the honors "GETS-IT" Will Get Any Corn, Sure? Almost Like Magic. Guaranteed.

Just one application of Knowlton's Danderine will double the oeauty of your hair, besides it lmmed'ately dis solves every particle of dandruff; you cannot have nice, heavy, healthy hair if you have dandruff.

MTSCHOOLTAX Permanent Fund Should Be Created, K. U. Men Say. Legislature Would Be Freed From Yearly Fight. To place the state of Kansas on a par with other leading states as far as its treatment of higher educational insti tutions is concerned, students of the State University through the Men's Council have started a campaign for a constitutional amendment providing for a permanent income for the mainte nance of the University, the A'gricul tural college and the State Normal schools. Students and graduates of all the Kansas institutions are expected to join in urging the legislature to present t.ie measure for approval to the people. A fixed tax has already teen adopted by Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Min nesota, Illinois, Nebraska and many other states who have been able to build up great universities with the permanent fund the system gives. The arguments advanced by the stu dents point out that a mill tax would cust but $10 to the individual citizen who paid taxes i n a valuation of $10, 000; that it would ensure normal growth in the institutions because plans could be made ahead i-rovlding for such in crease; that it would relieve-the facul ties from criticism resulting from the necessity of lobbyir- for the appropria tions of their institutions; that it would make it less easy for other universities to take some of the best teachers from Kansas, because of the greater per manence of these universities in the matter of income; and that it would put the maintenance ofthe University, the Agricultural college and the State Normal schools on a permanent basis, removing them from the danger of hav ing their reve: ues curtailed by caprice 0 $7.50 values $5.85 Prices Real actual $28.60 Suits not of a fictitious value.

We sincerely believe, regardless of everything else advertised that if you desire soft, lu?trous, beautiful hair and lots of it no dandruffft no itching scalp and no more falling hair you must use Knowlton's Danderine.

Such a plan, say the students, would relieve the legislator from the responsi bility of the present large total of ap propriations and would give him more time to devote to other quesUons be side the mechanical intricacies of ap propriations. By eliminating competi tion in the procuring of appropriations, it would make toward a better co-operation among the various schools, and a consequent increase of efflcie..cy and value to the state, in addition to being of great advantage to the taxpayers be cause it -would insure their getting the greatest possible value for their money since only with a fixed and permanent income can an educational institution do its best work.

President Taft tersely but forcefully presents the Issue of the hour when he says it is prosperity and progress against a leap in the dark. Inasmuch as November is close at hand, the predictions of the weather bureau that much cooler weather is due have a reasonable ring. This is also the season of the year when the football teams of the larger colleges walk all over their rivals from the smaller institutions with, un erring regularity. Another big improvement in the national campaign that is fast draw ing to a close over its predecessors is that not so many male quartets were turned loose to annoy the public. It may be a trifle late in the day to call attention to the fact, but one of the glaring deficiencies in the Bun Moose national platform is its failure to declare in favor of simplified spell ing. No matter how bright the sun may shine on November 5, or how high the mercury climbs in the thermometer, it is going to be a Tnlghty eoldT flay for many more or less distinguished gen tlemen. Neither is there likely to be much gloom on the part of the people, the i plain people, because this week will practically bring the political speech making to an end for the time being, at least. And the opening of the post-baseball season in the "radiator league" has been materially delayed this year by the unusual spell of fine weather that has been so much appreciated by everyone. Who dares to say the world and its people are not progressing in the right direction? The cuckoo clock industry Is threatened because of the ever growing unpopularity of this variety of time-keepers. Wouldn't it be unusual in Kansas if seasonable weather could be ex perienced once in a while? According to the experts, the recent brand of weather, delightful as it has been, was really of the typical September va riety. Statistics show that the American people are drinking more whisky and beer and smoking more cigars and cigarettes than ever before in their history. Well, for one thing, there are many more American people than there ever were before. Record breaking crowds are report ed to have turned out to greet Governor Johnson during his spell binding tour of Maine. Possibly this was due to the idle curiosity of the Maine folk to ascertain how a Cali fornia Bull Moose compares with the native variety. Criticism to the effect that the Turks are- not good fighters seems to have done them a grave injustice. Re cent reports from the seat of war in dicate that they are excellent fighters when they attack each other for places in trains and other conveyances that are traveling rapidly away from the enemy. This is encouraging. Both Governor Stubbs and Judge Thompson seem to be of a mind to be law-abiding citi zens. They express a willingness to accept the decision of the people in the United States senatorial contest, as expressed by the popular vote. And the laws of the state contemplate that candidates for this office shall do this very thing. "Every report from every section of the country is favorable and the gen eral business situation is not only very active but is entirely healthy," reports R. G. Dun Co. 's Weekly Review of Trade, and It continues: "Taking it al together there has never been a more remarkable uplift in American business than that now In progress at a time of foreign disturbance and of an im portant domestic campaign." This is food for reflection for every voter in Ui land. There are political and economic wrongs in this country to be righted, but the people and their rep- resentatives will scarcely be in a pro- per mood to settle them satisfactorily if they are in the throes of a busi- ness depression. Such a situation is likely to develop if there is a sudden and radical change in the policies of the national government BUT EECKER DID NOT TESTIFY. Police Lieutenant Becker says that he will get a new trial and that he will finally be acquitted.

No judge could prevent a jury from drawing its own conclusions from that fact, nor could the most elo quent plea of any lawyer hide i's sig nificance. Here was a New Tork police officer of much more than the average au thority and influence and, of course, under corresponding obligation to the public, who let himself be tried for murder of the coldest and most de liberate kind, without telling hie own story to the jury. With his .ife at stake, he dodged the witness stand. What could the jurors think except that he dared not face a sercningj picture establishment in the city, wnere cross-examination?

Their evidence might well have been received with extreme doubt and caution by any jury, if vigorously denied and controverted by the testi mony of a man hitherto rated honest and clean. But Becker was afraid to take the stand. T.nntvin: A BUSINESS ASSET. A Bisora Human life is gradually oeconiuis recognized as a business asset.

A MOVING PICTURE STORY. With our dnily press nnd masrarine"' filled with recltnls of shortcomings of trustPd individuals, of obligations for gotten in the mad rush for money, it is crtainy refreshing to flash upon the curtain of events even an occasional Inridpnt where gratitude "stands su preme, writes H. H. Windsor' in the November Popular Mechanics Maga zine. Really the world is not nearly so bad as represented, for it seems to be a perverse element of human naturs to magnify the wrong and minimise the good. Here is a true story which came to me unknown to the prir.cinal: in f.ict, I took no changes on asking his permis sion to print it. fearing he mirht re fuse. Some years ago a young man with more ambition than money went west In search of fortune. Through no fault of his he finally found himself fur 'out on the Plains without friends or money. He was fighting his way across the Rocky Mountains, walking by day and catching what feee ides he could on the night feight tains. At last he found himself at a water tank, miles from any habitation, thinly clad, penniless, weak from hunger and exhaustion. Life seem ed a failure and not worth the battle. A freight stopped for water, and the engineer seeing his pitiable condition told him to climb into the cab. The din ner pail was brought out and one of the two had a hearty meal. At the end of the run the young man was awaken ed and found himself literally over the mountain, in a land of sunshine and plenty. With tears of gratitude he told j the engineer he would never forget him. j Ten years passed and both fame and j fortune had smiled on the chance pas- senger. He had 'foreseen the possibilities of a vast business, then new, but now found in every city and town. He had maae inventions ana impru.ciu ..n.Li which contributed largely to its de velopment and success. He was worth his millions: his name was known throushout tne worid wherever moving pictures flash. One day in taking a short cut through the park he hurried ly passed a most wretched-looking man, ragged and thin, who was sitting on a bench with bowed head, a picture of despair. Banker and capitalists were even then waiting to hold an important directors' meeting, and time was pre, cious. But something in the un fortunate seemed to especially call for sympathy, and retracing his steps he stood before the bench. He spoke to the man, who had been a locomotive engineer in Mexico, was doing well, ran over a native, had to flee the country; i hsn unnhlo tr secure a run on reaching his own land and was now at the end of his resources. Yes, he proveed to be the same en gineer and his former passenger "made good." He dressed him and gave him money; he rented a place of amusement ind set him up with the finest moving- act Drjngs jts own reward in the doing. JOURNAL ENTRIES And the number of good losers in the worid is greatly exaggerated. More ambitions would be realized it so many of them were not so foolish.

A musical hit is a piece of good luck. A judge lays down the law when he quits the bench. There are also as good compliments as ever were fished for.

Political platforms are gradually getting away from the proverbial pie crust. A merchant's advertisements are practically as good as his bond. Personal pretensions are accepted at face value and society, aided by the bill collector, the assessor, the news paper and the copper on the corner, cheerfully undertakes the task of see ing that you live up to them. This is getting to be a cheerful, fair play sort of world. Buncombe is slip- ping away to join the divine right of kings, the federal system, witchcraft and alchemy. You've got to live up to your platform. You've got to take your principles out of that fly-blown motto and put them to work. Not only is every tub required to stand upon its own bottom, but it's com- pelled to live up to the label on its I side. (Copyright. 1912, by the McClure j Newspaper Syndicate.) I A Profane Man's Grave. j A strange story comes from Watauga county, N. C, across the Blue Ridge frr.m East Tennessee, in connection with a recent burial in an old cemetery, near the county seat of that county. The story Is vouched for by the editor of the Watauga Democrat, a weekly newspaper published in that county. This editor relates that while attend ing the burial referred to, and which occurred only a week or two ago, his attention was directed to a grave, that was perfectly barren, and was appar- l ently as hard on the surface as the pneked dirt of a public highway. He was informed by persons residing in the community that this grave contain ed the dust of a man named Hatton. who died 49 years ago.

Glen's voice carried clear and sweet like the note of a wistful bird across the mountain peaks. To the young specialist lying among the balsam needles on the op posite ridge of the mountains there was something weird and mournful in the tones. Yet while he listened the voice reached out and seemed to echo among the very clouds; there was a wildness and freedom about it that sent little waves of elation up and down the young doctor's spine. "I will walk on that side of the ridge tomorrow," he told himself. So early did Dr. James arise on the following morning that he all but saw the night escaping to make way for a glorious dawn. He told himself that he had arisen at 4 o'clock merely that he might witness the sun as it came into view above the ragged peaks of the mountains. But because Dr. James was a brain specialist he knew that his brain was only carrying out the dictates of his heart. It took him all of an hour to de scend his side of the mountain and rise again to the summit of the other. He had not expected to see the girl whose voice had dragged him across the valley at so early an hour, but he had desired to view the citadel, as it were. WThen he came across her suddenly his heart gave a great bound and he drew back, fearful of disturbing her. She was lying flat on her back and her two little clenched fists were beating her chest as if in a fury of rage. Her hair was lying in heavy masses of blue-black about her shoulders and her lips were crimson like the stain from crushed berries. Suddenly and without warning she began to sing. The notes were soft and dainty. Had a bird awakened to the dawn? Dr. James listened; and while the sweetness of it all nestled deep in his heart, yet a vague something whispered to him that this girl's ac tions were not those of a mentally balanced person. "Lying alone on the mountain top at 4 o'clock in the morning and seek ing to rival the birds with her song," mused the young specialist, "are strange symptoms of His musings were cut short by the seemed to be wooing the fleecy ciouas ana tne great rir trees. ai- ter that it went careening down o-er the crags and into the valley. Dr. James caught a swift breath. He was lost in wonderment of the range and emotions in a human voice. "And she perhaps is not even aware that she sings." He sighed in wardly and decided to study the pe- I culiar case. "At least, she is happy, he declared as the voice followed him back to the hotel like the gurglii'g of a laughing stream. The next morning he set his alarm clock. Even his well trained eyes might not awaken at so early an hour. Even so, when he arrived on the opposite range, the girl was already there. "But, hush! She is asleeD," he whispered mentally and gazed long and admiringly at Glen. Glen Deene was her name. "You are certainly the Beauty," commented Dr. James, "but I am not the Beast otherwise I assuredly would eat you up every morsel of yon." When he could finally drag his eyes from the girl s face the specialist scanned the surrounding landscape, There was no camp within his vision "Where, then, has she come from?' He looked again at the girl and for the first time realized that she had perhats slept out during the night. While that fact was sifting into his brain the girl opened her eyes. They were as blue as the lake in the valley below and the heart of the young doc tor outiked A delicate pink crept up and stained the girl's cheeks. A hand went up as if it .fain would clasp to order that mass of blue-black hair, "Don't don't be alarmed," hastily interposed Dr. James. "I was just passing." But I am not in the least alarmed, said the girl, now fully awake. I was merely startled or rather, surprised. She gracefully threw off the heavy rugs that had covered her and stood up. Glen Deene was as straight as a young Indian and as lithe. Dr. James fell to wondering If she perhaps had a bow and arrow with which to pierce his heart. "She doesn't require the arrow," he sighed, and waited for her to speak He miht read symptoms in her con versation. Certainlv the girl's eye3 worn no hint of brain maladv "Do you. too. love to watch the dwn fleeinsr from the arms of night?" The girl's lifting voice smote the doc tor with its question, His eves narrowed. "Why, yes I do." The specialist snoke in the tone of one humoring a child. "I have not lost my mind." she said "ext. as If divining his thought. "Real- ,v" she laughed. "And if you do not are no doubt famished "I am." said the doctor, and won j dered why he spoke so joyously. After that he watched while the girl took her tea kettle from a hamoer. I "May I builcT the Pre?" he askd, I meekly, as if in apology for having doubted her sanity. Without waiting for her consent, he made a small fire, and a moment later Glen hung her kettle over it. "After we h ve had our breakfast the girl informed Dr. you must go. James, "because this is my domain!" She lauched happily and continued without having nermitted him to speak. "I am going Into opera this coming winter and I must practice. It is simply lovely to sing up here at the top of the world, and I try to do all that the birds do." "But why do you beat your chest, and why is your voice wistful, and where do you live?" Dr. James bit Tffi. EVENING STORY j into a chicken sandwich and waited for his answers. The girl laughed. "I beat my diaphragm not my chest! It strengthens it.

"I think that, perhaps. Is a good idea," he said. And then and there he vowed, mentally, to see that the difficulty was overcome.

Plato was a man of the world to his finger-tips, as well as a poet and a philos opher, and I have no doubt whatever that lie was always ready to discuss the Olym pic games with his disciples whenever tie celebration of a new Olympiad became the topic or tne aay ana tne cnances of tne local team ot atmetes were Demg ais- cussea at every street corner. i ne pose of the modern artist, who wishes to be te garded as a personage apart from his fallow-creatures, and for that reason holds aloof from such crowd-compelling affairs as a test match, a championship contest at the jsauonfli sporting club would cer- tainly have kindled Plato's smile of ui- bane contempt the same with which he so often confuted the hasty generalization of a popular sophist. The Greeks had all the redeeming vices of modernity: for example, they were great gamblers, and there must have been a prodigious deal of betting on the Olym pic games. Tons of money, to use a mo l ern expression, would be lost on the type of runner mentioned in a Greek epigram, who ran in a race with five others anc came in seventh, the sixth place being taken by his trainer, whose pace-making and cries of "Keep it up!" were laLor wasted. In all probability Plato refrained from betting nimseif (he knew that wagers are the arguments of fools), but I am sure he would not have frowned on a well-born pupil who had "made a boon" on the games. Ihe notion that the Greek philosophers were rather like certain modern head- masters, whose morals stick out all over them like the candy-peel in a cake, is part and parcel of the classical my.Ii which has done so much to dehumanize the most human of all the peoples of an tiquity.

Anyone who has come In contact with the life and habit of the Oklahoma Indian must be impressed with the fact that the Oklahoma red man is one of the richest, most in- dependent, laziest and most shiftless individual, singly and collectively, in this country. He has been made rich in spite of himself. His money comes regularly to him without effort. He won't work and he wastes his funds without conscience. And yet the gov ernment's one ambition is to extort even beyond that which ir fair in a deal between Indian and white man, impos ing considerations not obtaining be- tvveen white men in the ordinary course of business.

The man sni-part over several hundred acres of w"ho has been peeping in windows, fol- timber land east of Doniphan and the entire neighborhood fought fire all Instead of a training trip for his en tire team it is likely that only the pitchers and catchers will go south next spring when Manager Gear starts on his preparatory trip, a couple or three weeks before the beginning of hostilities in the Western League. Most of the youngsters will be included on this trip. The other players will be left here to get into condition for the ftay. Such, as least, is the plan on which the director of the Topeka baseball association are now working. Many things of course can happen between now and spring, but the training trip last spring was an expensive proposi tion because of the rainy weather en countered. Meanwhile there is no need for worry over scarcity of players. The locals have have been promised the cast-offs from two major league organizations and the men behind baseball here are not w-orried at all at this time because of lack of proper baseball material. The baseball meeting at which time the report of the directors will be made to the stockholders will be held some time fcetwen now and the date set for the Chicago meeting on Nov 11. It has not yet been decided just when this local meeting will be held. Local baseball men wil fight for a short schedule and the alary limit at the Chicago meeting. Most of the other team owners are believed to favor these measures although Holland promises some opposition and he mav be backed by McGil and Rourke. Sioux City, Wichita, Topeka and Des Moines own ers are on record as pledged in favor of both. Jones of Lincoln is said to have declared he would sell his team unless the salary limit and short schedule went into offect. And the promise is therefor ofa right entertaining time w hen the ruling powers in the Tip O'Neill circuit get together in Chicago. It is up to the league own ers, Prexy O'Neill not taking an active part in the agitation for and against these measures.

6 THE TOPEKA DAILY STATS JOURNAL OCTOBER 30, 1912 DOLLEYJS SORRY State Chairman. Regrets Action Democratic Managers In the Matter Refusing to Abide People's Choice for Senator. Chairman J. N. Dolley, of the Re publican ttate committee, regrets that the officers of the Democratic commit tee declined the proposed Stubbs-Dol-ley-Martin United States senatorial ftgreement and charges that Martin's refusal to sign the peace pact is a reflection on Judge Thompson, the Democratic nominee. In discussing; ti;e action of Martin, Chairman Dolley to day made this statement: 'I do not like the peevish spirit they have shown in turning it down." said Dolley. "There is an implied ex pression of contempt in it for their candidate for senator Judge Thomp sonthat is hardly poiite. He may not be all that the people want, but it seems to me that it is not good man ners on their part to snub him so often. -Personally. I do not believe that Judge Thompson ever dreamed that it was necessary to consult Dean and Curtis before expressing himself upon any important proposition in the pres ent campaign. I do not believe that he has any inkling of the fact that Dean, the man who has Martin's mind Jo his vest pocket, does not want him to be senator. I do not believe that he has pver 'stumbled- to the scheme of causing a deadlock In the legisla ture in the event that Stubbs is de featedand the election of Curtis as a reward for the stand pat Republicans for the defeat of Capper. I do not believe that he has ever given a thought to a possible Curtis-Hodges combination. "In any event, it was he who made the recent proposition to Mr. Stubbs. and Mr. Stubbs only amplified it to make it more practical and effective mar.s for the certain election of a United States senator this year by di rect popular vote. "When Judge Thompson received the proposition of Governor Stubbs, he was delighted. He thought is was just the thing. He got so confidential with the reporters that he told them he was now ready to go home as be had the fight won and would surely be the next sena tor from Kansas. In a further burst of confidence, he Informed them that Chairman Martin assisted him in get ting up the proposition he made the governor and that he was quite sure he would join with him in accepting the very much better, clearer and stronger proposition that the governor made him. "It is current rumor that in the event Mr. Stubbs is defeated at the election, a deadlock condition is planned to be brought about in the legislature that will soon eliminate Thompson. If Mr. Hodges is really connected with Senator Curtis, he can, if he is elected, be made very useful in promoting a solu tion of the deadlock in favor of Mr. Curtis. The plain is to prove that Thompson, by reason of being a district judge, is ineligible to become a sena tor. If he does not make too much fuss about it, he will be allowed the ex penses of his campaign. "It is believed that it will be very easy, in case of necessity, to use this unconstitutional' proposition to good advantage for purposes of 'justifica tion' among those legislators who could not otherwise see how they could re turn home with a good excuse for not voting for Thompson in the event that he got the highest number, of votes at the election. to which all teachers strive. They pre fer to have 20 pupils with an average daily attendance of 50 per cent, rather than 30 pupils with an average at tendance of 50 per cent. For this reason the report just issued by Superintend ent Fairchild is considered a strong recommendation of schol conditions in Kansas and especially of the strict and successful enforcement of the truancy law. DO CHURCHES FAIL Preacher Says Hired Assistants Are Employed by Wealthy. Downtown and Country Churches Flayed by Minister. Washington, Oct. 30. The declara tion that the wealthy "downtown" churches and the country churches I were demonstrating their failure to 1 advance Christianity, made before the Baltimore synod of the Presbyterian church, created a mild sensation among the attending clergymen and delegates here today. The synod, which will conclude its conference to night, was aroused last night by Rev. Norman Thomas of New York, who charged that the work of the fash ionable city churches was being done by hired assistants who were in the i profession "to get out of it all they j could for themselves." Rev. War ren H. Wilson of Brooklyn also said the country churches were "weaken ing" and that their places were being taken by "new fangled denominations or religious sects which had nothing in them but emotion." The charges created a decided stir in the confer j ence. CHOSEN PRESIDENT SANITARY EXPERTS CAPPERTOHODGES Republican Asks Democrat if He Favors People's Choice. Is in Matter of U. S. Senator Hodges Stands on Platform. I 2 r: DAILY ATTENDANCE. Figures Nlioiv Average to Be llisli in Kansas Schools. if J I i .,,4 f'-" 3 The playing of "hookey" is being successfully discouraged in Kansas and the public schools of the state show the highest record average daily attendance ever reported. While the total enrollment is low, the Kansas truancy officers have been on tne job and the youngsters who abandoned their studies for a day at the swim min' hoie or to see the circus parade are staying close to the school room. Records compiled by O. V. Henderson in the office of State Superintendent K. T. Fairchild show that for the year ending June 30, the average daily at tendance was 75 per cent, as against 72 per cent, in 1911 and 65 per cent, ten years ago. Much of the credit for the steady increase in daily school attendance is given by Mr. Fairchild to the strict enforcement of the truancy law. Un der the present law a child who re fuses to attend school may be sent to the reformatory. Some of thj more obstreperous ones have been -?ent to Hutchinson and this practice has had a decided moral effect in the neigh borhood. Records show that for the year end ing June 30, the truancy officers plac ed 5.4 03 children in school, while in the previous year they convinced 5,879 children of the importance of a common school education. This year there were 20,420 cases which were called to the attention of the truancy officers in the 105 counties. This is an increase over the former year when but 16,804 cases were reported. But Superintendent Fairchild believes the increase is an evidence of vigilance on the part of the officials rather than a record of infractions of the school law. This theory is borne out by the fact that this year there were 266 prosecutions under the law as against 237 prosecutions in 1911. Tet the percentage of convictions is small er. In 1912 there were 196 convic tions under the truancy law. while in 1911 there were 223 convictions. In 1912 41 children were sent to the re formatory or to the industrial school, while 42 were sent in 1911. The 1912 record shows that 3 5 boys' were sent to the reformatory at Hutchinson or to the Industrial school in Topeka. Six girls convicted of violation s of the truancy law were sent to the Indus trial school for girls in Beloit. In there were 3 2 boys and 10 girls sent to the industrial schools. While the school census for 1912 shows a loss of 5.154 over 1911 and the enroll ment a loss of 4.7S5, the average daily attendance for 1912 shows a gain of 2,352 over the record of the previous year. The total atendance for the school year ending June 30, 1912, was 298.12S. This is the highest record in the history of the state and is 75 per cent ofthe enrollment in the schools. The rural schools alone show a loss in the daily attendance record. This condition, it is claimed, is largely due to the severe winter of 1911-12, when weather cor.rlitions made it Impossible for children in the rural districts to attend school. Tt is the record of daily attendance Brigadier General George Torney, surgeon gener-' of the United States Army, was elected president of the Na tional Association for Preventing the Pollution of RiT. rs and Waterways, at its recent convention in Cleveland. Foremost health experts and sanitary engineers of tht United States were in attendance at the meet. WOMEN IN "HIGH JINKS." An innovation has been Introduced this year in connection with the Grove play of the San Francisco Bohemian club, which consist in the repetition of the play in its proper setting in the grove at a date shortly after the close of the two weeks of the High Jinks festival. The striking feature of the Innovation is the admission of women as spectators. Heretofore none of the fair sex has ever been privileged to be in the grove during the High Jinks, or to witness the Grove play. This has been the cause of exten sive wailing on the part of many women, eminently qualified to bring to the Grove play appreciation of the higher order. Nothing but the heroic and exclusive masculinity, which hag been the rule at the grove at the great midsummer festi val, could in the past ever have accom plished what has been done there. Now, following the spirit of the age, this has been felt as a limitation rather than as an advantage. The problem has been, how can the tempering and inspiring qual ity of the eternal feminine be introduced without breaking the oid tradition, ham pering work, or robbing the Jinks of that peculiar sense of freedom which men feel when they get off by themselves. The present solution seems an excel lent one. The repetition of the Grove play for the benefit of women, under the only condition in which it could have its full effect, will in no way interfere with the spirit of the Jinks proper, and at the same time the art there born will be en abled to have the wonderful quality of response and appreciation which women bring to things artistic. That influence in this case should not be without its beneficent effect on the future development of the Grove play, which, it may be. has now reached a point where it cannot further progress as a function of the masculine half only of humanity.

Hodges ask ing if he will join with him in an agree ment to use his influence to induce the incoming legislature to abide by the people's choice in the election of a United States senator. Hodges is in Hutchinson today and this afternoon wired the State Journal that he had not received the telegram, but declared that he will stand by every policy in the party platform. The Democratic plat form declares for the election of United States senator by direct vote of the people. Since the refusal of Henderson Martin and W. H. L. Pepperill to enter an agreement that they would abide by the people's choice for United States sena tor in next Tuesday's election, there havj been numerous rumors that a plan is being considered to launch Senator Charles Curtis as a dark horse in event of a deadlock in the legislature. Martin emphatically denies any con spiracy for the election of Curtis to succeed himself and declares that his principal reason for refusing to enter an agreement with Stubbs is the fact that the plan looks good to the Kansas governor. So, the senatorial question will now enter into the gubernatorial contest if Capper's suggestion is ac cepted by Hodges. This morning Cap per sent this telegram from Wichita to Senator George H. Hodges in Olathe: "Will you Join me in a pledge to the people that if elected governor, you will use the influence of the office i in every way to see that the will of the people in the matter of their choice for United States senator at the November election is executed ir respective of party? I will be glad to make this pledge. "ARTHUR CAPPER." When Hudges learned that Capper had sent this telegram, he wired to the State Journal from Hutchinson, where he is speaking this afternoon: "No telegram received," declares Hodges, "Capper is too wabbly to stand on anything. The Democratic platform declares for the election of United States senators by popular vote and I am standing for the fulfillment of every pledge made by that platform. Stubbs' affixes and prefixes to state ment submitted originally by Judge Thompson, in my opinion is intended only to give excuse for not signing the agreement to stand by the popu lar vote of the people for United States senator." Hodges, by the language of his statement, makes plain that he will stand on the party platform, but ex presses little concern for any promise which his opponent may make as to the senatorial situation.

MYSTERY ON THE LINKS Unknown Visitor Breaks World's Kecords Daily. New York, Oct. 30. Golfers at the Van Cortland park links have remark ed this week the presence there of a mysterious goiier, who wears a black mask while playing the course. Those who ha"e watched his play declare that the length of his drives is re markable, enabling him to cover the rather hard course at a score close to bogie with apparent ease. It was declared today that the mys terious visitor is an English expert who has just come to this county on a wager of $25,000 to break the records of the six best courses in the United States and af'erward on a wager cf $5,000 to beat the American amateur champion in a match game. The identity of the masked golfer is kept in obscurity, but it is said that his name is familar in England and this country. The black masker yes terdav took seventy-one strokes to play the IS holes at "Van Cortlandt. This is one stroke better than the rec ord. He made one drive of nearly 300 yards, better than the world's record. seTasioe law. Supreme Court Decision in Osage. School Tax Cuse. In his campaign for governor, Arth ur Capper has printed on the back of his letter heads and in thousands of pieces of literature, a letter of en dorsement signed by Topeka business men. This endorsement is not dated in the circulars, but was realy made months ago before the Chicago con vention, before Roosevelt bolted and before Capper declared his affiliation with the Progressive movement. C. K. Holliday, a well known Topeka man, signed one of these letters. He is not supporting Capper now and has urged the Topeka publisher to refrain from circulating the ancient endorsement. Holliday's opposition to Capper is strictly for political reasons. Person ally he is a warm friend of the Repub lican gubernatorial nominee. But Holliday does not approve Capper's leanings to Roosevelt and has reouest Capper to refrain from using the let ter of endorsement given months ago. In his letter to Capper, Holliday says; "My Dear Arthur: Some considerable time before the Republican national con vention met at Chicago, as a prospective Republican candidate for governor, you requested letters of endorsement frDiii some of your fellow townsmen. Amom; others you requested a letter from ma. and I cheerfully complied. A few days ago among others you published my letter in advocacy of your candidacy for gov ernor. I regret that you did this, but in so much as you have done it. I regard it my duty to write to you again. I will not question the motives that prompted you to support the nominee of the Pro gressive party, Mr. Roosevelt, for tne presidency, but I will vote for Mr. Taf:. I cannot consistently vote for you and iir. Taft. "One of the incomprehensible thing's about American people is, that they can't stand prosperity and they are now en gaged in the pleasant pastime of trying to commit commercial and political hari kari. Mr. Roosevelt cannot win the presi dency. Indeed it is doubtful if he carries a single state. Mr. Roosevelt's candidacv, however, has made a free trade candidate for the presidency a possibility. You know, every thinking American knows what free trade has done and illdo to this country. I had hoped as the campaign neared its close, and the hopelessness of Mr. Roosevelt's chances of election be come clearly apparent that you would come fearlessly forward and align your self with the party which advocates pro tection to American industry and Ameri can labor, that you would in fact come back to the Republican party where you belong. Since, however, you have no: done so, and you still announce that you wiH support Mr. Roosevelt although tnis contest is now squarely between Mr. Taft and Mr. Wilson, I will be equally frai.k with you, and say I cannot vote for you. I am not writing this letter for political effect. I do not believe my being for or against you would change a single vote, I only write to square myself with you. "Arthur, as a Republican, you are all right. As a Bull Moose you are just a3 wrong as you can be, and 1 am sorry, sorry sorry. "Very sincerely yours, "C K. HOLLIDAY.' The supreme court today set aside the provisions of a Kansas law which I states that a school district cannot levy taxes beyond a sum that calls 1 i lor a lour ana one-nan mm levy, xuia case came before the court on a mandamus proceedings from Osage county, where a school district sought to raise $S,000 when the old maximum levy would raise but $6,700. The court neid tnat tnis was not an exorDiianu i levy and that the county treasurer or Osaare countv should extend the taxes. When the Osage county district; sought to raise the $8,000 by a vote county officials held that the levy was illegal and refused to recognize the levy. Officers of the school district then came before the supreme court and this afternoon secured an opin ion which in future years may have a telling effect on levies to be made in country school districts in Kansas. WILSON ODDS LONGER To the Independent Business Men of Kansas William Allen White, Bull Moose national committeeman, in one of his farewell circular appeals for votes for Roosevelt, Stubbs and the other Bull Moose candidates, urges "that change must come in the conditions under which American business is transacted." DO YOU DESIRE A CHANGE AT THE PRICE OF A SACRIFICE OF OUR PRESENT SPLENDID PROSPERITY? A vote for President Taft and against his Bull Moose enemies is a vote for the continua tion of the Republican policies of President Taft, nationally. A vote with the Bull Moose ene mies of President Taft and the Republican Party is a vote to substitute untried theories for the sound, substantial policies that have made for the prosperious condition of the whole country. Business men everywhere are coming to realize that support of the Roosevelt third term party is a leap in the business dark. It is a vote to substitute uncertainty for prosperity. In desperation at the steadfastness of independent business men in support of President Taft and the integrity of the Republican Party, the Bull Moose leaders are attempting to make a show ing of business support for Bull Moose candidate. William Allen White is sending out thousands of circulars addressed "To the Business Men of Kansas," signed by fifty-one men who he advertises as representative business men, im ploring help for W. R. Stubbs, the Bull Moose candidate for United States Senator. The ap peal was prepared by White and J. N. Dolley, chairman of the Bull Moose state committee. It was presented for signature only to "business men" to whom state officers could make ef fective appeal. It is signed mostly by merchants who have contracts to sell supplies to state institutions under the control of appointees of Governor Stubbs, by men interested in state banks that are under the supervision of J. N. Dolley as State Bank Commissioner, by business partners of Stubbs and Dolley, and in one or two instances by appointees of the Governor. Naturally, these "business men" have responded to the demand that they join in an appeal for support for the politicians by whom they are being favored. Of the fifty-one signers of the "appeal," twenty-two who are interested in corpora tions or partnerships that are selling supplies to the state, ten are interested in state banks un der the official supervision of Dolley, two have received political appointments at the hands of the Stubbs administration. W. B. Sutton, a business partner of Stubbs, also signs the appeal, as does H. M. Leonard, an employe of a private corporation of which Dolley is president. J. A. Kimball of Salina and Thomas Blodgett of Wichita, appointees of Governor Stubbs, add ed their signatures for good measure. Among the signers of this "appeal" who are interested in corporations or partnerships that are selling supplies to the state under the Stubbs administration are H. P. Armstrong of Atchison, Henry K. Brooks of Topeka, H. B. Howard of -Topeka, T. V; Campbell of Topeka, George Inness of Lawrence, J. S. George of Hutchinson, G. W. Newman and F. C. Newman of Emporia, R. M. Mclntyre of Topeka, F. H. Smithmeyer of Lawrence, A. B. Weaver of Lawrence J. L. Powell of Wichita, and many others. Is this "appeal" the voluntary act of independent business men Should not independent business men be influenced more by considerations of prosperity than by such "appeals Remember that a vote for President Taft and against Stubbs, Capper and the other Bull Moose enemies of President Taft is a vote to PRESERVE OUR PRESENT PROSPERITY AND TO PRESERVE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

One curb broker of fered to bet $250 to $1,250 that Wilson would not be elected. This is five to one. A great deal of money is being wagered on Taft against Roosevelt. Several bets of $1,000 were made at even money that Taft would get a larger popular vote than Roosevelt. A bet of $1,000 even was made that Taft will beat Roosevelt in New York state. .The following biets were made. Five hundred dollars to $200 against Straus to win; $1,000 even that Sul zer's plurality in New York state will be 50,000. These offers to bet were made: Five hundred dollars to $2,500 that Straus runs 100,000 votes behind his nearest competitor; $1,000 to $100 that Roosevelt does not carry all the states west of the Mississippi; $1,000 even that Hedges beats Straus. A Straw Vote for President. Wflson was the favorite with Taft a close second in a presidential pre ference poll taken at the State Jour nal today. A total of 4 9 votes were cast. The result was as follows: Wil son, 21; Taft, 19; Roosevelt, 9. The vote was taken among all the em ployees of the building who were legal voters including all the printers, busi ness office attaches, reporters, editors, etc., who were in the building just before the noon hour. A cigar box with a hole in the lid was passed over the office and each man voted a se cret ballot. iOBIANOFLE, SURROUNDED BY BULBARS, FACING STARVATION, RELIE D ON BY TURKS TO PREVENT ADVANCE ON CONSTANTINOPLE TO PliACE 2,300 STREET SIGNS, Commissioner Tandy Estimates That Xnmber of Xew Ones for Topeka.

In that year, however, the Moslem Turks took the city and it was the chief city of their empire until 1453, when they captured Constantinople and made their capital there.

Accuses Ball Player of Wreck ing His Home. Xew York. Oct. 30. Rube Mar cjuard. Giant pitcher, appeared at the Jefferson Market court with Blossom Seeley, the actress, on one arm, and wearing a cane on the other a oige of his new profession. Blossom is Rube s new partner in vaudeville. She went to court to get r. summons for Joe Kane, her husband and erstwhile manager, who had threatened her and Rube went along! as- protector. j Mrs. Kane sr.id her husband was in- i Fanely and unjustifiably jealous ot the j l ast ball player-actor and had threat ened to shoot her. Rube corroborated this, saying he heard Kane declare he would kill his wife on the stage. One night recently Mrs. Kane said her husband threw a mirror at her, punched her and drove her out 'it their apartment in the Hotel Hermitage. She went home to her mother and lat er established herself at the Hotel Kndicott. Marquard lives there. "Why." she exclaimed in court. 'Joe said right in front of everybody that Marquard had stolen his wile and wrecked his home." "By the way," put in Rube, "Blos som has a new manager." "Who is he?" was asked. "Mr. Marquard," said Rube. Mr. Kane could not be found. He must appear in court on Thursday to answer the charge. Phantom Bandit at the Best. The Best theater announces its pro pram for today, tomorrow and Friday, featuring a most interesting picture in four parts. "The Phantom Bandit." This is a sequel to "Zigomar," the pic ture which created so much interest when shown here last spring-. In "The Phantom Bandit" Zigomar, the notorious Paris bandit and terrorist, virtually returns from the grave when he emerges from the heap of debris after the building in which he was entrapped has been blown up. He re turns to the gang and continues, his I depredations upon society, but Is final ly brought to justice through the un tiring efforts of Le Rouquin. chief of Paris detectives. The picture is gro tesque and produced upon a gigantic scale, showing the almost superhuman at-d miraculous workings of the peo ple of the underworld. AT THE PLAY. REGARDING INTERVIEWS G. T. Mattingly Gave Out Two Ver sions of Capper Candidacy. Wash your clothes easily with 1 You have only to soak, boil and rinse. No soaping, no rubbing. 10c At All Grocers Walker Whiteside, who last appear ed in Topeka in the "Melting Pot," pleased a large audience at the Grand Tuesday night as Tokeramo, the Jap anese diplomat in the "Typhoon." The play has none of the pathos of "Madame Butterfly," but is rather a whirlwind of passion and patriotism that lifts one out of oneself. It is true the plot is unpleasant, but the ef fect ia so bizarre, so startling, so out of the ordinary that the sordidness is overlooked. Mr. Whiteside has only a few sec onds of heavy acting when he loses his inhuman Oriental control and strangles Illona: otherwise, his lines are perfect rather than strong; each twitch of his lips, each clench of his hand, however, is art itself. He seems certainly to have absorbed the person ality of the people he portrays. Flor ence Fisher, as Illona, was as alluring, as soulless as Carmen herself her im pulsive vocal changes were superb. Hubert Wilke, as Lindler, the artist who loves cognac, is an actor of finesse and ability. One cf the unique scenes in the play was the celebration of the "Feast of the Little Boys;" Tokeramo'3 Berlin apartment becomes a Japanese bower in a minute's time rice screens, chrysanthemums. oriental lanterns, kimor.as. a sullen Buddha who was ccncealed behind a clock. The yellow men sip tea in a circle on the floor; the latest arrival from japan fore shadows the outcome cf the play in a horrible story which he tells "One of our captains, who left a young wife at home, dreamed of her constantly; his military duties he could not per form. To Tokio he went, found her sleeping, embraced and killed her. He won honor in the camps and later di"d in Manchuria." The action moves swiftly Tokeramo's devotion to his work, surrender to the wiles of Illona. the climax when she, having made him admit his love, taunts him because of his race, because he is "yellow.'' Incensed, he strangles her, then s Hows the blame to be shifted In order that he complete his great task for the government. Nerves are tense until the last moment when Tokeramo. worn with work and remorse, dies in his chair. The audience is quiet in the theatre, quiet in the lobby, quiet inthe car; It has seen strange sights, and heard new things. The play has no particular significance in America. As Mr. White side remarked before the p!a, "We have no need to fear the Japanese." The Typhoon is gripping simply because it is exotic and new. A. H. Lewis' Single Binder is the best quality and best selling 5c cigar on the market-Adv G. T. Mattingly, city license collec tor stated in an Interview in the morn ing paper that the State Journal last evening intimated he was against the candidacy of Arthur Capper for gov ernor. He also stated in the morning paper interview that he found large majorities favoring Capper in south eastern Kansas, where he made a re cent visit, and that he was for Capper for governor. The State Journal last night did not say that the city official was against Capper nor did it intimate that he was. Instead the Interview in last evening's paper was a reproduction word for word of what Mr. Mattingly said to a State Journal reporter con cerning the political sentiment in La bette county. The State Journal re porter is not responsible for what Mr. Mattingly thought or said when a morning paper representative called on him In the afternoon. Here is what Mattingly said Mon day morning concerning the situation in Labette county: "I find evers'thing whooping it up for Hodges down there. They don't like Capper's relationship with the Bull Moosers. They are still for Cur tis, Taft and the Republican cause. They are wearing Taft caps, buttons, badges and neck ties." If you are one of those smokers who have had a hard time finding the right sort of a cigar, there's one chance left. Get an Aurora. Tou'll like the Havana in it. Adv. With the close of the campaign less than a week away, Chairman Dolley of the Republican state central committee, reports that the committee has already spent $2,225.24 more thp.n has been con tributed and that $2,200 must be raised to protect outstanding claims. In a re port of the financial condition of the committee Dolley stated that a few free will cash offerings will be accepted. Receipts of the committee from candi dates and other sources have amounted to $5,619.50. while the committee has spent ST,844.7i, or $2.22 ,.24 more than has been received. Claims to the amount of $3,644.7 have been paid by the committee and an even $2,200 is needed to clear the account up to the close .of business Tuesday night. In addition to this deficit, there is no pro vision for the expense of the final week of the campaign. Congressman Fred S. Jackson of the Fourth district, declares that the charges by the Republican league that he failed to make a report of expendi tures from his contingent fund and to make public the fees from linuor prose cutions Is an absolute misrepresenta tion of facts. Jackson, in letter to the State Journal, encloses a copy of the printed report. This report shows that under Jack son's administration the expenses of the office were $39,530.15. Of this amount S23.1S9.52 was spent in the enforcement of the anti-trust laws. SS.422.47 was "pent in the enforcement ofth prohibi tory law. $1,200.21 for extra help and scecial counsel except in the anti-trust cases. $1,652.59 was spent for traveling expenses except in the prohibitory and anti-trust prosecutions. $4,145.81 was the account for general office expenses, postage and messages, and $3,249.52 for items included in miscelleanous law en forcements. Jackson's report also includes a list of fees collected in counti' where spe cial or assistant attorney generals were named to take charge of criminal prose cutions. These Jackson's reoort savs. are as complete as he has ben able to gather from his assistants. In his re port Jackson shows that Sll.922.50 was the amount of fees paid to prosecutors in Leavenworth county alone from January 1, 1S07 until the filing of the report February 25, 1911. In Sherman county. $787.50 was collected in injunc tion, contempt and criminal cases. Of the S2.6S7.50 collected in Atchison coun ty, Jackson's share from the proecu tions was $1,256.50. Jackson declares that he received no fees in Wyandotte Cherokee and Crawford counties ex cept one fee of about $130 in Cherokee county. These include all fees received j from liquor prosecutions by Jackson and his assistants as reported in his j pamphlet. j JS.hia letter Jackson declares J5? 6 rport a'so shows that the state ment made in the Orr resolution that rr.v trfrie ,in? expenses for 1910 were $3,551. was f U.

Everyone knows the attorney's fees were allowed bv t ie court, paid by the law breakers, and" were always a matter cf public record." Charges that Jackson's traveling ex penses and receipts, from liquor prosecj Uons were unusually large, are contained in a statement issued by the Republican League. In a recent editorial the Inde pendence Reporter charged that for o.ie I'fcZ Jackson'? traveling expenses were ?3.5al.lS and cited page 113 of the sta"e auditor's report for 1D09-10 Th!s state ment, Jackson claims, is an absolute mis representation of the facts. Judge Arthur E. Firmin, a life long Democrat, resident of Dallas. Tex. and a relative of Oscar Swayze of Topeka h?s written to the Topekan that he himelf is almost persuaded to vote for Taft r r president. Judge Firmin declares the Taft article in a recent issue of the Sat urday Evening Post was the most schol arly and patriotic address he has ever read. Commenting on the national political situation. Judge Firmin wrote to Mr Swayze as follows: "The fight is cold between Taft and Wil son, with Taft a little ahead In the inde pendent vote. Personally I shall vote with my state for Wilson; but I never read a more scholarly and patriotic ad dress, a more profoundlv written article from the Republican standpoint th.n Taft's letter published in the Siturday Evening Post a week ago. WiNon's speeches bear the same relation to it that a freshman's Idealisms do to the profound work of a Macaulay. and to Teddv's ful minations. that the work of a statesman does to the essay of a schcolbov. Tie fact is. if I were not so absolutely and unqualifiedly a Democrat, believing that no good could come out of Nazareth. I would vote for Taft as the best and safest man in the bunch."

The course to be pursued is plain. na ror your doctor at once, and in the mean time drop 30 drops of HT OIIEI into a bowi of boil in water and hold the child's head over it, cover with a towel or cloth. so that only the air filled with HT OMEI vapor is breathed. This method of treatment has saved many a child's life, and mothers of croupy children should see to it that Booth's HYOMEI is alwayes on hand.

State Candidates Sign Statement Set ting Forth Tilings Aceomplished. In a signed statement Issued by all can didates for state office on the Republican ticket, the Kansas voters are reminded 'f some three score things which have be?n accomplished under the Stubbs adminis tration of the last four years. Attention of the voter is called to the progres:i-e legislation, to progressive administration and enforcement of the laws and to tj business policies pursued by the men who have held the several state offices in the gift of Kansas voters. Here are some of the accomplishments to which the ten candidates for state of fice point with much pride: Workmen's compensation act. Employers' liability act. A decent primary election law. A law providing "for a nonpartisan com mission (or business) form of government for cities. The nomination of United States sena tors by direct vote of the people. The clacing of the charitable and penal i institutions of the state under purely busi ness management based upon a sou.id Civil service foundation, i The most humane and business Iia management of the state penal and r formatory institutions in the United States. The piacing of the public utilities of the state under the control and supervision of a commission with ample authority to pro vide for the physical valuation of railway pror-erty. The abolition of free transportation and the placing of all passengers on an equal footing. Two cent railway fares which has saved hundreds of thousands of dollars to the traveling public without any dimir.uti-n of the business of the railroads. This is the result of cutting out free transporta tion to political favorites. The readjustment of freight rates that saves the people mere than $2,000,009 an nually, and which minimizes to some ex tent discrimination between communities. The passage of a bank guaranty law that has so inspired public confidence that deposits have increased enormously, thus bringing into circulation immense Louisiana and Mississippi For Roosevelt Roosevelt's plan to dredge the Mississippi and make it a mighty highway for commerce has thrilled the South Recent polls in Louisiana and Mississippi towns show Roosevelt 1,170; Wilson, 67; Taft, 26.

While President Henry .1. Waters, of the association, and W. t. liru.-ner of Junction City, chairman of the rcsor.i tion eemmitti e, have not given out any statement for publication, it is under stood that a resolution will be present ed for the consideration of the teach ers recommending: a change in tii method of selecting the state superin tendent of public instruction and t".e county superintendents. In fact me rumor that such a resolution will be presented has already started consid erable talk on the part of county su perintendents. It is not known what method of se lecting these officials will be proposed but it has been hinted that the task of filling the offices will be left to boards organized for the purpose who will make appointments purely on the basis of efficiency. It ks suggested that the idea is to get the selection of the state superintendent and county su perintendents out of politics, if possi ble. Indications are that the committee on resclutions is determined to do a rea' piece of constructive work. It want.' io get away from the ordinary cut and dried resolutions that are di-shed up for the consideration of the teachers. Another resolution that will be of decided interest to thousands of Kan sans will one that will propose a com mission for the study of the textbooi: law. It Is hinted that a change in the organization of normal institutes will be suggested. The change would put th'm on a profajsional basis. Another proposal will be that the"? be free tuition in high schools. Then it is understood that the teachers w ill be asked to vote in favor of standard izing the rural schools. The relation of the deaf and dumb and blind institutions of the state and the reformatories with the state de partment of education is something that will probably be considered. The us of school houses as social centers is something that will interest thou sands of people in every portion of the state. Word was received oday from W. C. Landson, of Salina, the treasurer of the State Teachers' association, to the effect that the advance registration of teachers for the meeting in Topeka to date is more than 1.600. This is the best showing in the history of the as sociation, and it is is expected that the total registration will not fall far short of the 5.000 mark.

At Sacramento SO additional men were taken aboard and other addi tions were made to the company at the principal citie3 through which the special train passed on Its way to New York.

Bat ties have been fought, blood has been spilled; and although President Gomez is not running for re-election, the lives of himself and family have been threatened. It was reported last week that by reason of these threats, the president was about to resign, and would quit politics at once and forever for a more congenial and less hazardous occupa- tion. Gomez, however, denies the truth of the report and insists that he j will stick to the presidency until hij i term expires. The threats against him came from some of the supporters of General Menocal, who believed that he was using the machinery of gov eminent to further the interests of Alfredo Zayas, who is now vice presi dent. While not under martial law this city is under absolute military protec tion. The streets are patrolled by police and mounted and foot rural guardsmen; and detachments of reg ular troops are stationed at various strategic points ready to respond in stantly to a call to suppress rioting. It ls hardly to be expected that election day will pass without bloodshed. .11... UK numnjayj" n DINNER STORIES. he When Bender, the star pitcher of!

Special Officer H. E. Gaines, of th Union Paciilc, asserts the report de nying that J. H. Lambertson stole grain doors from the Union Pacific tc be a misstatement of facts and uses as evidence of this, the action of Lam bertson in police court. Lambertson was arrested for the offense as charged and pleaded guilty. He admitted hav ing the 15 grain doors, lie was fined $25 on the charge by N. B. Arnold, the police judge, but $10 of this was remitted upon his promise to return the doors in question. The following is a statement that has been made by Officer Gaines: "To the Editor of the State Journal. "Dear Sir: I see in the racrning paper a statement to the effect that Lambertson did not steal the grain doors belonging to the Union Pacific Railroad company. "I found 15 grain doors in his pos- I session, and swore out a complaint against mm tor stealing la gram doors. He plead guilty and was fined $25 by Judge Arnold. "Lambertson had taken the doors at night, and if this is not stealing it is certainly no harm to take things that do not belong to you. "Because Lambertson is a promi nent colored gentleman I can see no reason why it should be whitewashed in this way. "H. E. GAINES, "Special Officer U. P."

A general in vitation is given to all women who are interested. The members of the ex ecutive board of the club and the chair men of the ward organizations will re ceive, and there will be fifty assisting women and fifty assisting girls. The change in the date of the party is made on account of the D. A. R., Pageant Saturday afternoon, and some other social affairs. A business se sion of the Good Gov ernment club will be held at the Y. W. j C. A. Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. All ward chairmen are re i quested to report and bring the signed j cards.

Black and white striped taffeta may i be made up most effectively by fo-1- lowing the model given. The striped taiieta is used tor tne olouse and tun ic, while a most novel effect is pro duced by the introduction of old blue taffeta as shield, revers and undet- skirt.
