L. Fultz, Brown. New Haven, Nov. 15. The annual football clash between Princeton and Yale brought here today 35,000 follow ers of the most popular of college sports. Weather conditions were Ideal and the field was in fine shape. Some five thousand of the spectators' army reached New Haven last night but the main body, including practically the entire Princeton under graduate list, streamed into the city during the fore noon. At least a third made the jour ney by automobile. Princeton ruled a slight favorite during the forenoon, but the earlier odds of 10 to 7 were ham mered to 5 to 4 before game time by liberal offers of Blue coin. It was the first time in years that both Yale and Princeton faced each other as beaten elevens. For Princeton the game was the final one of the sea son. The Yale season closes with the Harvard contest next week. Yale slightly outplayed Princeton in the first two periods of the game and scored a coal from the field in the second period on a beautiful 30 -yard drop kick by Guernsey. In the first two periods the offense of both teams was far weaker than the defense, and the little rushing done netted Yale but one first down and one for Princeton. Yale seemed to make more distance rushing on end runs. Glick, the Princeton quarterback, made a 28 yard dash for Princeton's longest gain. The two periods were practically given up to a punting duel between Law and Knowles, with honors about even. First Period. Princeton won the toss and chose to defend the north goal, giving Yale the kickoff. Pendleton kicked off to Princeton's 20-yard line. The ball was run back five yards. After a series of punts it was Yale's ball on her 35 yard line. Law's face was covered with blood from a cut over the eye. There was a long delay while he was given surgical attention. Yale chose to rush but made no ma terial gain. Law immediately kicked outside at Yale's 23 yard line. Again Yale elected to rush, but Knowles was thrown back a yard when he tried Princeton's right end. Knowles kick ed out of bounds on Yale s 47-yard line. It was the Tigers ball in Yale's territory. Streit plunged through cen ter for three yards. Law kicked to Wilson on Yale's 10-yard line. The ball was brought five yards. On a fake kick Wilson made six yards through center. Knowles kicked to Baker on Princeton s 4 4 -yard line. There was no run back. Neither goal was in danger as both teams played a kicking game almost entirely. Yale was once witnm rnnceions ao-yara line, but lost distance on a penalty. Score end first period Yale 0; Princeton 0. Second Period. The second period started with the ball in Yale's possession in the center of the field. After two rushes with but little gain. Knowles KicKea to Princeton's five yard line.

The punting tactics continuea ana with the ball on Princeton's 21 -yard line, Yale stands began shouting for a touchdown. Knowles tried Prince ton's right end without gain. On a double pass, Wilson made 3 yards. Guernsey, Yaie s orop nicner, eiu iu for Knowles. Standing on Princeton's 30-yard, Guernsey dropped a pretty goal from the field.

The rebels detrained undiscovered, placed their artillery and had every thing in readiness for battle before the word was given to fire on the fed eral garrison. At the first volley the astounded government troops were as sembled and returned the fire, engag ing in a battle which lasted for two hours. Bullets Fall In EI Paso. Bullets fell thick in El Paso, and all residents here were awakened by the sound of heavy artillery firing. Amer icans were kept from the danger zone here by the detachment of U. S. Fif teenth cavalry on patrol duty under Major R. E. L. Mitchie, and so far as is known early today, no Americans j were wounded, though houses and buildings were targets for many shots. The formal surrender of the city to the constitutionalists was at 5 o'clock whin the federal commander threw himself and his soldiers on the mercy of the victorious rebels. At once bands began playing on the streets and the town rang with "vivas" for the conquerors. It was by one of the cleverest strategies in the history of Mexico that. Juarez was taken. General Villa with General Herrera was at Chihua hua City Thursday, reported to be at tacking that town. Federal troops were rushed to the reinforcement of the Chihuahua -garrison, but Villa never really ..pushed his attack: there. Leaving behind a small force of men he took more than 7,000 of his troops the train' which reached on board Juarez at the time a federal troop train was expected. Surrounded the Town. Not once challenged by federals the rebels surrouned the town on all sides save the river front that next to the American border, and a con certed attack was made, with the artillery doing much of the work. The federals were so completely de moralized by the suddenness and un expectedness of the attack that they offered no serious resistance. Colonel Cano, spokesman f.r the rebels, told the Associated ress correspondent today that he had no Idea of the num ber killed and wounded on both sides and this could be teretmined only after daylight. He said he did not be lieve the loss was heavy on either side. It was reported, though unverified. that General Francisco Castro, com manding the federal garrison had been killed.

Early today General Francisco Castro, com mander of the federal garrison at Juarez, was missing. Despite the earliest report that he had been shot, he was not found among the dead or wounded and rebels expressed the belief that he had escaped from the city. Major Cervoro Maresa, command ing the rebel detachment guarding the international bridge placed the total number killed in Juarez at twenty-one, seventeen federals and four constitutionalists. Three thous and rebel troops took part in the cap ture. A troop train was made ready early today to be sent to Sauz to bring in the 3,000 or more constitutionalists who stopped there. Shots Fall on American Side. Just before daylight this morning Lieutenant Carlos Valesquez Mendez of the Mexican federal artillery in Juarez, a prisoner of the rebels, dash ed across a bridge for El Paso. There was a fusillade of shots from the rebel guards and bullets fell among the United States soldiers on the American side of the river. One bullet fell near Captain Harry N. Cootes, second cav alry. American soldiers rushed to wards the river as if to return the fire and the rebel officer in command threw up his hand as a signal that the firing had ceased and immediately sent an apology. Major R. E. Michie, commanding, the American troops sent UCJULr UlULCU DUtlCS Ultll Bllttl lHt&B. Moore over the bridge to tell the rebel officer that -under no circumstances were his men to shoot again towards American territory either after a flee ing prisoner or for any other purpose.

No Indications That This Pro gram Will Be Altered. SHAUSCESSY TO m?.D U. S. Marines Will Be Landed at Vera Crui. Mexican Commander Instructed to Offer No Resistance. Mexico City. Nov. 16. "In view of Venustiano Carranza'a repudiation of any form of mediation by or alliance with the United States, Provisional President Huerta can do no less than join him in his expression of patriotic sentiment and maintain unaltered his dignified attitude toward Washing ton." This statement was made at the na tional palace today. This declaration appears to cast extreme doubt upon any renewal of negotiations between Mexico and the United States, according to the view taken by well Informed persons here. -They declare that It tends to substan tiate the belief that no hope is left of an amicable adjustment. Mexico City. Nov. 15. No indica tion had been given at the United States embassy up till 10 o'clock this morning that General Huerta had manifested any desire to accede to the American demands relative to the Mexican congress on which it was re ported the time limit was to expire at noon toaay. .Nelson u isnaugnnessy, the American charge, denies, however. that tlme Umit had been fixed. There was every indication that the newly elected Mexican congressmen would meet for purposes of organiza tion at the .hour specified, although rumors were current that a counter order would be issued by the pro visional president at the last moment. General Huerta is said to be yet unconvinced of the advisability of re signing and it is suggested here that Venustiano Carranza'a refusal of the propositions made to him by William Bayard Hale, personal representative of President Wilson, has had the ef fect of bolstering him up in his defi ance. At the national palace the at titude of the United, States is charac terized as indicative of a trafficking people, and today many Mexicans re verted to their traditional declaration that any interference in their affairs by a foreign government would be met. by a.,uolleUaexican people. Pes- -simhun was frankly in evidenee at the American embassy, where until yes terday considerable optimism r had' been shown. Congress Meets This Afternoon. Mexico' City, Nov. 15: Senators and deputies elected recently to form the new congress in place of that dissolved -by Provisional President Huerta will meet at 3 o'clock this afternoon in their respective houses, to choose temporary 'speakers. Early today President Huerta -had given no intimation that be in tended to alter his program to comply with the demands made by John Llnd, personal representative of President Wilson, that he prevent the-organisation of the new congress. It would be no surprise in official circles here If the -American embassy were withdraws. Nelson O'Shaughnessy.charge d'affaires, received a communication from the state department at Washington last night which it is believed contained In structions governing his actions. Unless the present plan is abandoned by President Huerta within the next few hours, the men chosen to replace those senators and deputies now pris oners In penitentiary will assemble for a preliminary meeting with Manuel Garza Aldape. minister of the Interior, as acting temporary chairman. Ordi narily this post would fall to soma member of the previous congress. Today s sessions are expected to be confined to the formality of selecting temporary officers. Monday is the day fixed for both houses to meet and re vise the credentials of their members. This business will probably occupy two days at tne most, since few contests are expected the temporary organlsa- tion snouid be errected in this time, of- ficial "returns of the recent election show that all the deputies and senators had been elected unanimously. On Wednesday both bouses of con gress are expected to elect their perma nent officers and appoint committees to notify President Huerta and the su preme court of the formal opening sC congress.

Ever since his arrest Spencer has Insist ed that he be given the death penalty, when his trial began Monday, however, bis attitude In the court room was one of such violence that Prosecutor Hartley saw In It a well defined attempt to establish the belief the defendant was insane. Spencer was the only witness to take tne stand for the defense. He testified, and for flteen minutes held the attention of the court while he cursed and reviled his own counsel and the state's attorney. Spencer broke Into another stream of profanity when he heard the verdict read and then fainted in his chair. "They'll hang me," he shouted. "They got me, they got me. How does the Jury know I wasn't insane. I was insane. I am crasy." In the absence of Spencer's counsel, Judge Slusser entered the usual motion for a new trial and set the hearing for a week from Saturday.

It is not improbable' that there will be' an eleventh hour alteration of the government's plan with reference to the meeting of congress today since it is not regarded as probable that Wash ington will recede from the stand an. nounced by Mr. Lind to the effect that congress shall not meet as ordered by President Huerta. Mediation Never Suggested. Washington. Nov. 1 5. The state ment from Provisional President Huerta that he joined General Car ranza in repudiating mediation in any form by the United States was read to Secretary Bryan but he made no comment. White House officials likewise were informed hue were equally reticent. The position that has hitherto been taken on the repudiation of media tion by Carranza is that this govern ment neither offered nor intended to offer mediation. The Washington ad ministration has maintained merely that it can not recognize as legal or have any international relations with the government at Mexico City and has repeatedly pointed out as the sole p re-requisite to American recognition the elimination of Huerta. Car ranza has merely been asked for as surances that if the embargo on arms were lifted he would give protection to foreigners and their interests. CONTROLS THREE STATES. Carranza Lays the Foundation for s New Commonwealth. Nogales. Nov. 16. In the eyes of all Mexicans on this side of the line, the capture of Culiacan, capital of Sinaloa, welded a new commonwealth I within Mexico, a confederacy which will rapidly expand if the constitu tional armies can light their way southward and eastward toward Mex ico City and the Guatemala line-. Those, Mexicans holding contrary be liefs generally are on the other side of the line out of dangerous prox imlt. trt thA nnnu In r ontnlon. Culia can was the last capital of the north- ern and Pacific coast states to fall to l he rebel arms. The constitutionalists now control a wedge of Mexico, including the country's three largest states, Sonora, Sinaloa- and Durango, with the ter ritory of Tepic. And the capital of all, for the time being at least, is this little "dobe" village across the street from the United States. The aduana or custom house is used for a na tional government headquarters. This aduana is of brick, stands out distin guished as the White House of Gen eral Venustlano Carranza. the provi sional president. Likewise, it is his capital, his war and diplomatic head quarters and his Judicial tribunal. As constitutionalist president of Mexico he bears in one of his tiny rooms the proposition of Washington through Special Envoy William Bay ard Hale. As lawyer and judge, as he was in his home state of Coahuila before he became governor in the days of Ma dero, he administers justice. In an other apartments as first chief of the constitutionalist forces he dictates or ders to adjutants and plans future campaigns for his field commanders.

Last night there was a ball celebrating the victory of Obregon and his four thous and men at Culiacan.

It also opened 800 miles of railroad with the exception of a strip at Guaymas which, save the Sinaloa seaport of Mazatlan, is the only important north western city remaining in the hands of Huerta's forces. -Telegraphic communication'' was opened with,- Torreon on the central lines of the National railway below Chihuahua City, whichr is now Invest ed by Pancho Villa's army. Reports from the constitutional commander operating south, east and west to Mr. Carranza and his lieutenants- declared today that the revolutionists control half of the area of Mexico. WASHINGTON IS .WAITING. Huerta Has Been Told How Negotuv Hons Can Be Reopenad. Washington, Nov.' 15. Washington today awaited dispatches from Charge O'Shaughnessy as to the effect of in structions sent him late last night by Secretary Bryan informing counsellors of Huerta who have displayed an anx iety to reopen negotiations, on just what conditions the United States would assent to-further parleys. As the new Mexican congress, which the United States has refused to recog nize as legally chosen, was to be con vened by official order late today, it was expected here that definite de velopments in the situation would, materialize. Officiate are confident that Huerta now realises not only that the United States is in earnest In its Intention to oust him and may accomplish his elimination by lifting the embargo on arms, but also that Great Britain as well as th other foreign powers, have assumed more than a passive attitude of acquiescence in the American policy. The fact that Sir Lionel Carden, British minister to Mexico, is com-, municating to Huerta intimations of; a strong character that he must elim- Inate himself in accordance with the j American contention, is said to be the development os which the situation has turned within the last two days. Refusal to resign or prevent the new congress from complicating the sit-1 uation by giving out concessions this government would consider illegal. might mean that the American gov ernment would go forward In its pol icy of morally supporting the consti tutionalists. The capture of Juarez by constitu tionalists, an important port through which munitions of war might be passed for a vigorous campaign on umnuanua and tne large cities of the south, is expected to have consider able effect in Mexico City. The capture of Juarez by Madero in his rebellion against Porfirlo Diaz was the turning point which brought the Dlas regime to terms, and forced the flight of the president. President Wilson went to the golf links early today and Secretary Bryan came to the state department early to await dispatches from the Mexican capital. Write the Store Department.

TODAY'S MET REPORTS. Cblcago, Nov. 15. WHEAT Argentine reports of to much rain in the north and of continued drouth in some of the south ern districts helped today to make the wheat market rise.

Fresh reductions in the estimates of the Argentine exportable surplus tended to prevent any lasting setback; the close waa steady at o to e net advance. CORN Corn showed strength as a result of unsettled weather. Offerings were scanty, and the shorts Increasingly nervous. Tbe market, which opened c to c dearer, scored a decided further ad vance. The fact that cash demand was only moderate brought about a slight tem porary reaction. The close, however, was storng at c to 11c net advance.

TIE SCORE IN QJD Washburn and Emporia Slip and Slide In Vain. Ichabods Were Near Goal Line Many Times. CLUE UKQjU TIME PEP Played Against Emporlans as If They Were Scrubs. Beferee Said Washburn Should Hare Won Game. Unless some wayward player acci dentally slid on his nose over the goal line, Washburn and the College of Emporia could have been playing un til Christmas eve without a score. The Sons of Ichabod failed to cross the goal line of the Presbyterians in the annual football contest at Em poria Friday afternoon. It goes with out saying that the Blue kept her goal clear from the smudge of the Granger crimson. It was just a slip pery, sliding, slick treadmill of mud dy moleskins. If one of the players had been trained as a mallard, he could have tucked the ball of mud and atmosphere under his arm and paddled his way to victory. As it was, the two squads were composed of hu man beings college lads and the score at the end of the game was 0 to 0. In a way, it was a victory for the College of Emporia. They didn t car ry the ball the distance made by the Ichabods, to be sure. They played in Washburn territory but a short period of the contest, it is true. But the fact that the Granger pupils were able to hold Washburn score less was considered quite a trick in Bill White's town. There was one feature of the game that can be blamed for Washburn's failure to cross the Emporia line modesty. Bearg, the powerful Blue halfback, missed more than one-third of the game, right when his line plunges would have netted big gains, just because some unkind opponent ripped his trousers from his legs. Bearg, possessing an abnormal amount of personal pride and declining to ap pear in his "slit-skirt" before' the young ladies of the audience, ran to the gymnasium to make the change. Meanwhile the team slopped around in the mud for more than a quarter without his aid. Washburn had many chances to score. Emporia endangered the Blue goal line only through a long for ward pass spurt. Then the candle went out. Twice Washburn was within ten yards of the posts. An ap parently easy place kick was blocked. Another time a forward pass, thrown near the Emporai ten-yard line, fell between, three Blue warriors. An other time a fumble. The long wad dle-marches across the field were wasted. Now for a few dabbles into the over worked "If" column. Far be it from the writer to minimize the brilliant and plucky playing of the flying Presbyterians Granger has a mighty pretty little football machine but Washburn should have won. Why didn't she win, then? you ask. The answer is this: Washburn would have had to have been a team four touchdowns better than the Presbyterians to have won Friday afternoon in that sea of mud. As long as it was impossible for any one to get away on a long run, owing to the weight of mud clinging to the player's shoes, the game was nothing more than a see-saw back and forth over the slippery surface of Mother Earth. Washburn is a team that should have defeated Emporia by two touchdowns. The Ichabods are only about five pounds heavier than the Emporlans. But the experience and coaching of the squad is of better touchdown-making variety. The vicious attacks of Rogers and Bearg and Forbes and Meyers through the line were wasted in the mud. The backfield couldn't get started they couldn't dig their toes in tho ground they couldn't cut in or dodge or hold up under high tackling. It was Just a treadmill of four quarters, fif teen minutes each, accompanied now and then by a punt and a forward pass. McCreary, an official of the game, and a man who has worked in former games this season with Washburn and Emporia, summed it up this way: "Washburn, on a dry clear field, should have won. Nothing could be gained in that mud. It looked many times, when Washburn would march down the field with the ball, that the game was over then a slip and a slide and the energy was wasted." Emporia went wild over the result. It was their privilege and right. Grang er's pupils are pretty players and de serve the standing they have in the Kansas conference. It was victory in disguise to hold Washburn. The Emporlans soaked their shoes in oil between quarters, thereby compact ing the mud that weighted down their feet. When the Washburn runners Sopped down the field, a sprinkle of How Stuffy Some Dental Offices Are but the lightness, the cleanliness and the air iness are instantly noted by one who steps into our reception room. There may be pain and there may be stuffiness but not at 809 Kansas Ave. WHITE DENTAL CO. Phone 714 DR. CHARLES LYNGAR xr mud mi nver their trail. It was a spectacular game from a duck stand point. Deaver, the curly-headed little end of the Ichabods. played a star game. Once he recovered one of Trobert's fa voritesa 55 yard punt, giving Wash burn the ball well down the field. An other time he leaped Into the air with enough mud to build a dam hanging to his feet, and pulled down a forward pass. His tackling was sure and his speed under punts, considering the real estate attachments to his shoes, was marvelous. The football writers in Kansas should pound out about two sticks of matter concerning Trobert's kicking, set it up in type and use it for every game. The blonde end with the cannonball toe, shot up spirals of mud and grass, time after time, good for never less than 45 yards and at one time 65 yards, and never seemed to notice the extra weight on his feet, the slick surface of the ball and its extra weight. Trobert also played a strong game at end. If there is a man in the Missouri valley who can outkick Trobert, he hasn't made his appearance on the gridiron this sea son. The two Whitcombs, Dick and Bob, felled their family tree and laid the log right across the right side of the Washburn line Friday. Whenever an Emporian would try to make a gain through the two brothers well, it was just a try. that's all. On the other side of the line loomed up Rogers and Wolfe in their old reliable form. There was nothing doing through the Blue line yesterday. If there had been one of the several kneeling players on the sidelines would have been called into action by Coach Gray. Markley, tackle and captain, Rus sell quarterback and Hinshaw, half, starred for the Presbyterians. Mark- ley showed up well against the mighty Rogers. He was a power in oftense and defense. Russell and Hinshaw completed in clever style several for ward passes passes mat wash burn should have broken up or intercepted, Russell is a heady little field general and Hinshaw is fast and good on in terference. Elbe at quarter for the Ichabods, was a wriggling chunk of mud always in the game. His return of punts was sure. His efforts in carrying the ball past the huskies and slam-bang into the secondary defense portrayed the Washburn Never Quits spirit. Elbe, not much larger than one of Roger's shoes, is a plucky and fearless quarter back a man who nas tne commence of the players. Just a word of criticism Washburn will have to learn the knack of busting the insides out of forward passes. Two times the Em porians broke away for long gains through successful passes one far out into the hands of a waiting player. who ran down the field until tackled by the Ichabod safety. McNeish, who made the tackle, by the way, saved the bacon of the Topekans. It was a pretty stop to use a baseball term and the bases were floating. Washburn will meet another series of open plays in the next game with St. Marys. The completed forward passes yesterday should teacn tne Ichabods a lesson. And it undoubtedly will. Coach "Crip" Gray wasn't scowling on the sidelines because of internal pains he was thinking about next week's practice. "Pinky" Beales was greatly handi capped in his usual speed and clever ness in carrying the ball, by the heavy field. "Pinky" iwas responsible for many long gains, and he ran a good interference, considering the excess baggage that clung to his prickly feet. Chamberlain and Champney, playing in the halfback positions, made a re markable tussle with the elements. This item should be placed in Harvey Parsons's "By The Way" column be cause of its comedy attachments, but owing to the fact that it smacks of football it will be reproduced here: "Coach Granger claimed after the game that the Emporlans would have romped away with Washburn on a dry field." Granger is a good football coach also quite a humorist. The game yesterday was worth a season's training to the Ichabods. It was their first contest with a team of their weight. It was their first game in the mud. It was their first experi ence with an eleven that relied upon open play for gains. The next game with St. Marys will be under like con ditions. Washburn can spend a mighty profitable week in learning to break ui: the forward pass and in swinging on the tackle dummy. The tackling Fri day was not up to standard. Washburn's football machine was in perfect running order nit missing fire in the Oklahoma game several weeks ago. Since that time the squad has taken on bruise after bruise, injury after injury, until today it lacks the customary pep. The Ichabods were not at their best in the Normal game, or the Kansas game. Yesterday they played like they do against the high school and the scrubs. They tried to win the mud fight but the old "up and at 'em" ginger was gone. Washburn will have to iron out her bruises or sbo will go football "stale." Summing up the contest: The Col lege of Emporia will have a good chance at the state conference cham pionship. If Washburn defeats the Aggies, the honors will come to Topeka. Otherwise it will be a division of medals between Washburn, Emporia and the Aggies. It is a wonderful ag gregation that Granger has built up there in a college with not more than 150 or 200 students. The lineup: EMI ORIA. Wledeower-Anderson Center. Giles Right guard.

Lawrence high school proved too strong for Topeka Friday and defeated the latter by a score of 19 to 0 at Washburn field. Although the Topeka team played well and fought for every inch of the field, the heavy Lawrence backfield was able to pierce the locals' line. The field was muddy and It was al most impossible to use any formations and all of the gains were made by line bucks. Woodward, the Lawrence full back, made great gains for his team in this way, tearing large holes in To peka's defense. A large crowd stood in the rain watching the game and cheering their respective teams. The Lawrence high school band furnished music Lawrence defended the east goal in the first quarter. Willard kicked off and the visitors did not gain on the kick. Early in the quarter It was ap parent that the Lawrence backs had little difficulty in going through the Topeka linemen. They made their downs every time In this quarter, los ing the ball once on a fumble. Near the end of the quarter, Woodward, went over the line for a touchdown, He later failed to kick goal. In this quarter two Topeka players were in jured, Nettles and Glass, and were substituted by Kennedy and Coffman. In the second quarter, Topeka snow ed better form. Willard, captain of the team and full back, played a fine game on the defensive. Callihan, right end, was always down the field fast on Willard's long punts. The teams were evenly match except in the first minute of play, when Dun cley intercepted a forward pass and made a touchdown, wooawara kick ed goal, in the last few minutes. To peka went dangerously near the Law rence goal. The third quarter was a hard fight throughout, both teams playing nara. Sara-en t. Quarterback for Topeka, made a 20 yard run in this quarter through the center of the Lawrence line. The two elevens zigzagged across the muddy field, Willard punting To peka out of danger twice. Coffman, the sub half back.made larger gains for the local team, as did Laslett of Law rence. Welson and Shannon, gaurds, showed better form than in the first period. No score. Lawrence began this quarter with the ball on their 20-yard line. By line plunges, they took the pigskin to the other end of the field. A hard fight ensued, the Topeka team work ing hard to keep back a touchdown. Laslett finally went over the line near the end of the game. Woodward failed to kick goal. The ball was in the center of the field when the game ended. The officials of the game were Hoover, Manhattan, referee: Holmes, Eureka, umpire, and Henderson, To peka, head linesman.

Joseph Doctrine Ap proved by Banker. EIDorado, Kan., Nov. 15. Senator J. D. Joseph of Whitewater, chairman of the state senate committee on banks and banking, has issued in book form a review of the Glass-Owen cur rency bill, and urges that the indi vidual bank should be given better opportunities to exercise its credit. without being so greatly dependent upon masters and sub mast era of a centralized organization as contem plated in either the Aldrich bill or the present administration bill. In the book Senator Joseph handles the situ ation as he sees it, from a nonpartisan, scientific and pracaical viewpoint. senator Josepn is a strong Wilson and Bryan man, but does not agree with them as to financial legislation and he understands conditions in Kan sas. In 1907 Joseph, a banker at White water, arranged to put out denomina tional cashier's checks in lieu of cur rency within thirty minutes after the condition was known to him, and advised his fellow bankers to do like wise. Senator Joseph has the reputa tion of having circulated the first de nominational cashier's checks in the United States during that disastrous panic and it was the-cashier's check that saved the day. Senator Joseph's knowledge of the principles under lying banking and currency enabled mm to Know at once what to do and how to do it. Bankers who have read Senator Joseph's review say they would not be surprised to see- some of his theories as to how the currency should be re formed eventually put into practice. PLANT.

TVant Eyery Foot of Tacant Ground Cultirated. AGRICULTURE 111 SCHOOLS Gardening May Be Become Re quired, Study in Schools. Some Big Land Deals Are Re ported This Week. A movement has been started to wards making gardening a regular re quired feature in the city schools. While H. B. Wilson, superintendent of city schools, has expressed himself as being decidedly pleased with the ef forts that the Topeka Real Estate Dealers' association has made in the way of providing prizes for the home garden plan that has been in opera tion for two seasons under the direc tion of C. H. Withington, instructor in agriculture at the high school, he has not stated positively that such an in novation will be established in the schools. In case nature study in the form of gardening is required there will be approximately seven thousand young farmers in the city of Topeka and all unsightly trash and weed covered va cant spots in the city will become at tractive enclosures. 4 Reduce Cost of Living. If each child in the course of the season would raise vegetables valued at ti5, this would mean a total crop value of $175,000, and would go far towards reducing the cost of living. Many children in the contests the last two years have made much more than J 25 from the sale of vegetables. The Topeka Real Estate Dealers' association not only turned over $50 in gold recently to C. H. Withington, supervisor for the home garden plan, but has agreed to raise an additional J 100 before next September to be used In prizes for the pupils of the city schools who prove themselves to be best farmers on a miniature scale. A. committee of the association, composed of G. L. Garlinghouse, J. L. Cottrell and W. A. Neiswanger, has been appointed by C. B. Wingett, the president, to collect this money. Iriw Money In Sight. Mr. Withington now has on hand 1132.18, which will be a portion of the money that will be used to encour age thousands of boys and girls to till the soil of Topeka vacant lots and back yards next season. The Garling house Realty company, which offered a special prize of $100 this year for the best gardens 25x50 feet in size, will have a substantial donation for the cause this year, and according to S. C. Cobb, the Bank of Topeka will make a contribution. This year the Women's Commercial club took an in terest in lot gardening and doubtless this organization will fall in line again next spring. The Topeka Commercial club contributed liberally this year. In connection with the movement prizes will be offered the Topeka school children for the essays on the best methods of beautifying home sur roundings. An Experiment Farm. The Topeka Real Estate Dealers' association has gone into the garden plan so deeply that it is looking into the question of procuring a ptece of ground on which students at the high school may do experimental work in agriculture. The committee' is com posed of the following members: C. J. R. Smith. J. E. Torrington, W. J. Richenbacher. and N. Coover. Superintendent Wilson is of the opinjon that gardening not only de velops the child physically, but gives him practical knowledge that every boy and girl should have. And it should be mentioned that the parents of the children think the plan is a great one for it gives the youngsters an opportunity to work and to make some money through the sale of produce and still does not con flict with the child labor law.- It BAKER'S Is Chalet Ricipe Boo 1 WALTER BAKER CO.

The meeting may take the form of a dinner and smoker. Clarence Jordan, secre tary of the Kansas State Automobile association, will be in attendance, and there will probably be several promi nent out of town speakers. There seems to be a diversity of opin ion among the motor car dealers in Topeka as to whether or not it is ad visable to hold another motor show in the Auditorium next winter similar to the one held early this year. From a financial standpoint the show was not a success because the promoters could not have chosen a more unfavorable week as far as weather was concerned. Notwithstanding the fact, however, that the attendance was consequently cut down to a great degree, many sales were made by local dealers either di rectly or indirectly. Providing weather conditions were ideal the show would doubtless prove a success in every par ticular.' As to the exhibits the show last winter was entirely satisfactory to the visitors.

POLITICAL GOSSIP And the Jadiclary Has Been Made Son-Partlsan. Sepi election. It Is considered probable that the present associate Justices wo aid have a shade the better of the contest under the present, law. since their names are familiar to a majority of the voters of the state. But this proposition is seriously questioned, since it seems that a number of law yers of state wide prominence are to be pushed in the contest for places on the supreme bench. They Are Uncertain. Neither Justices Smith, Mason or Benson are inclined to discuss their candidacy at this time. "I don't expect to make an an nouncement before January and have n't decided what I will do," said Jus-' Smith. Tt has frequently been reported that Justice Benson may not become a can didate for re-election next year. -No published statement about the matter has been authorised by me." raid Ju'dsre Benson, "and I don't care fBn. ir-ns,. Trrt Talked to discuss the matter at this time. It jtuny nansas lawyers is too early to talk about the election of the judiciary. ante Ballot and No Party for the Judges. THREE TO JE ELECTED Present Incumbents Reticent Abont Candidacies. of for the Bench. With the enactment by the 1913 legis lature of the non-partisan judiciary ballot, the contest to fill three vacancies In the offices of associate Justices f the supreme court will probably be come one of the most interesting con tests of the 1914 election. The terms of Associate Justices A. W. Benson. Clark A. Smith and Henry F. Mason expire n January, 1915. None of these officials have yet made definite announcement of their candidacy for re-election and at least a half dozen well known Kan sas lawyers are being urged for pro motion to the supreme bench. The new election laws are a puzzle to Kansas politicians. All semblance of party affiliation is lost in the new non partisan Judiciary ballot and the in nocent voter is left entirely to his own resources. Even tne jaassacnusera ballot law is but little better. For years the politicians had told the voters to "vote 'er straight." and mere ly make a cross mark in the circle un der the donkey, the rooster or some other emblem of party strength ai.d purity. But the Democrats have spoiled all of that. And the Judiciary has been lifted o suddenly from political environment that it doesn't know whether it likes the change OPnat. Of course there has always been the advocate of the non-partisan Judiciary. And the Judiciary has shown its ap preciation by a proper display of of ficial dignity and the assertion that it was folly to assume that the courts could In any manner stoop to political association. But on election day, the voters forgot about the judiciary's in dependence of politics and the candi dates for the bench usually received about the regular party vote. Now the Democrats have provided that the names of all candidates for judgeship shall appear on a separate ballot without reference to political af filiation. And this sudden and sweep ing change has occasioned unrest. Iioee Political Identlfkation. Next year three associate justices of the supreme court are to be elected. Probably two of the present associate justices Smith and Mason will be candidates for re-election. Perhaps Judge Benson will also be a candidate. No one seems to know. The justices won't talk about the matter at this time. But in seeking renomination, these justices will be the choice of all the voters to win a place on the general election ballot. For, under the new law. the six candidates receiving the largest number of votes, will be de clared the nominees for the three of fices to be filled and their names will appear on the non-partisan judiciary ballot in the general election. At the November election the three candidates receiving the highest num ber of votes will be elected. In the primary six candidates will be nomi nated, although the voter will be per mitted to vote for but three of the candidates seeking nomination. The ballot on which the names of the can didates will appear, will contain no reference as to the political faith of the several candidates and the indi vidual voter must rely on his own ac quaintance and familiarity with the names of the candidates in making a Justice Mason is out of the city. At the state house it Is reportea tnat ne will probably be a candidate for an other term. No statement has been made by Justice Mason, however, con cerning his probable candidacy. Will Be Many Candidates. So, while the present associate jus tices are withholding their opinions, the politicians are talking of a num ber of prospective candidates for the supreme Judgeship. It is almost cer tain that Judge Charles Smith of Stockton will be a candidate next yeaz. Attorney General John S. Daw son has been frequently mentioned and Judge G. H. Buckman of Winfield may make a second race for the su preme bench. A. B. Reeves of Dodge Citr has been urged to get in the race, while Judge A. M. Jackson of Cowley i-nnntr. who sought the Democratic gubernatorial nomination in 1912. is being boosted as a probable candidate aMMiiit iustice. C. 1. Hugh of thilonc is also a possible candidate. That is only the first Installment of th 1914 crop of supreme judgeship candidates. The politicians look for a long list of all political parties ana factions. But under the nonpartisan judiciary law, they will all have an enunl chance and the voter can taKe his or her choice without fear of breaking a rule of party regularity. Woman for Secretary of State. Out in Reno county, the Democrats launched a little Doom ior aura. Florence B. Hutchinson for secretary f state. Mrs. Hutchinson is at present clerk of the Reno county district court and is a popular and competent wo man. It is the plan of the leaders In Democratic cir-les to nominate one or two women for state office and Mrs. Hutchinson may be urged to make the race for the office now held "by Charles S. Sessions. Other women candidates being mentioned by the Democrats for state office are: Mrs. Anna Arnold, Chase county; Miss Elizabeth Waring, Jackson county; and Miss Anna Cal vert. Atchison county, all of whom are Democratic possibilities in the fight for state superintendent of public instruc tion. New Chairman In January. Kansas Democrats will probably elect a new state chairman January 2, the date of their annual banquet in Topeka. The resignation of W. H. L. Pepperill. the present state chairman, has not been announced, although It is under stood that he will resign at an early date. Because of the fact that he has recently been appointed internal reve nue collector for the district of Kansas, the federal ruling prohibits his holding the state chairmanship and he must either withdraw as state chairman or resign as revenue collector. Like the Republicans, the Democrats do not de sire to call a special meeting of the state committee to name Pepperill suc cessor, but will probably urge all of the country chairmen to attend the annual banquet and will take up the chairmanship question at a special business session. Several candidates as possible succes sors to Peppedill have been suggested. Among them are: Ed Murphy. Leaven worth; Charles M. Sawyer, Norton, state bank commissioner; Harrison Parkman, Emporia, fire marshal, and Frank Cumiskey. Pittsburg, state oil Inspector. Parkman is at present sec retary of the state committee, succeed-' lng Pepperill to that office when the Concordia man was elected to fill the office vacated by the resignation of Henderson Martin as state chairman. Helley Congressional Possibility.. John Kelley of Hugotori is men tioned as a probable Democratic con gressional candidate in the Seventh district next year provided Con gressman George A. Neeley decides to turn his senatorial ambitions over for the public approval. In the extreme southwest country. Kelley is a power. He owns several thousand- acres of Stevens county soil and about all the shade trees to be found on the Hugo ton townsite. In addition to that dis- I tinction Kelley's ability to deliver j votes on election day is known to every politician in the big Seventh aistnct. Kelley has a strong personal following and If he should decide to run for congress, would cause some opponent real trouble In the western portions of the state. Kincaid May Not Ran. Jasper Kincaid, state accountant and member of the legislature from Johnson county. Governor Hodges home, may not be a candidate for re election next year. Kincaid is a Dem ocrat, a stickler for good roads and bridge laws and was one of the few new members who really attracted more than passing attention during tne 1I3 session. But Kincaid is in clined to believe that one Job at a time Is enough and is not disposed to seek another term in the house, es pecially while holding his present po sition. The state laws, however, would not bar the Johnson county man from holding his present position ana serving m the legislature. Hussey Wants State Job. L. T. Hussey of Osage county has received a quiet, but rather definite, boom for the Republican nomination lor state superintendent of insur ance. Hussey was formerly state oil inspector and is well known in Kan sas political circles. Other orobable candidates for the job now held by iKe a. Lewis are: Carey Wilson, as sistant superintendent under Lewis, and Frank L. Travis, former state senator from the 'Allen-Woodson county district. FAIOUNT DEFEATED State Normals Won Stubborn Contest Score 7 to 0. Was Mrs. Bell, of Florida, When She Began Takisj Peruna. Wichita, Nov. 1 5. The Kansas State Normal eleven won a stubbornly contested game from Fairmount Col lege here yesterday, 7 to 0. The lone touchdown was made by White on a line plunge in the first five minutes of the second half. Two forward passes and interference with the catching of another put the ball on the 5-yard line. White then went across on the fourth down. Fairmount came back strong and had the ball in Normal territory the rest of the game, only to lose it close to the goal. Neither team threatened seriously in the Erst half. White gained two thirds of Normal's ground, while Pet erson starred for Fairmount. ANTI-SLAVERY LAW. Is Passed by the Philippine National Assembly. Manila vov. 15. An anti-slavery law was passea today by the Philip pine National assembly after a heated debate.

"when I began to take Peruna. I could not eat anything. If I swallowed anything; it soured on my stomach. My stomach was very much swollen. My bowels acted as if I had acute dysentery. I was in great dis tress and pain. Three doctors had been employed, but gave me no relief. I was continually growing worse. I Was in Despair. In my despair. I caught. at every straw. Picking up a newspaper I saw some account of Peruna. There was a testimonial from a woman who had been troubled much like myself. I concluded to try Peruna. I wrote to Dr. Hartinan. "At the same time I wrote to Dr. Hartman. He pronounced my ease catarrh of the stomach and bowels. I soon began taking Peruna. At once I began to improve. After taking half a bottle my stomach was so improved that I could eat some." I Began to Recover. Then this good housewife goes on to narrate in detail her rapid improve ment and final recovery. She said. "After taking two bottles of Peruna I was strong enough to stand up to wash the dishes." 1 When she began taking Peruna she weighed 102 pounds. After she had taken five bottles of Peruna she weighed 122 pounds. She concludes by saying that she is well. It Was Twelve Tears Ago. The letter from which the above quotations were made was received January 29, 1901. In a later letter, written September 11, 1904, she says: "I sing- the praises of Peruna far and near. It is used a great deal in our vicinity. This seems to be a bad place for catarrh." We have received letters from her since. The last time we heard from her.

USE NEWBRO'S HERPICIDE IN TIME AND YOU WONT NEED ANY FALSE HAIR Wearing artificial hair is harmless deceit of which many ladies are guilty. These women are all objects for sym pathy rather than criticism. Early neglect in the care of the scalp has caused the loss of so much hair that their personal appearance is sadly marred. To correct this de fect they resort to artificial hair. Most ladies would resent any im putation of personal carelessness and neglect. And yet very many women permit their natural hair to become so dull, brittle and lusterless that it looks no better than the artificial. All this is as unfortunate as it is unnecessary. Hair that is unsightly or thin may usually be attributed to the malevolent activity of the dan druff germ. This vicious germ bur rows down into the hair follicle, short ly destroying its life. The hair be comes dead, loose and finally drops out. There is a remedy sold by eil drug gists, the Intelligent use of which will remove all traces of dandruff. It also cleanses the scalp of all accumulations and makes the hair shine with the lus ter of life and beauty. That remedy is Newbro's Herplcide, "tne original Dandruff Germ Destroyer." Newbro's Herplcide in 50c and $1.00 sizes is sold by all dealers who guar antee tt to do all that is claimed. If you are not satisfied your money will be refunded.

S. A. C. Train Vis ited by Nearly 12,000 People., Anxious to Learn Methods of Diversified Farming. Manhattan, Kan., Nov. 15. Nearly twelve thousand farmers, town people and children in southwestern Kansas know a good deal more about silos now than they did two weeks ago. That many put aside their farm work, locked their store doors, and left their school books to meet the Santa Fe- Kansas Agricultural college "silo and live stock special" which visited forty five towns in western counties last week. It rained the first three days of the trip but the crowds came any way. Tou can't keep farmers at home when there s a silo show in towji. The train was run to urge farmers in southwestern Kansas to diversify th'ir farming; to raise more live stock and sorghum crops, in addition to wheat. That region must have more live stock and more silos, before its farming will be on a permanent basis, the lecturers on the train said. "The system of grain farming com monly followed in southwestern Kan sas is neither profitable nor perma nent," said A. S. Weale of the Kansas Agricultural college, one of the speak ers on the "special."
