Neeleys troubles are said to have increased during the recent Hodges-Beck con troversy. Then came the Brown sen atorial candidacy and charges by Neeley's friends that the state ad ministration was too friendly with the Kingman Democrat.

Thompson Adda to Troubles. Senator Thompson this week added Hew complications to the Democratic senatorial situation in a speech brand ing certain Kansas Democrats as "po litical traitors," and declaring that none of the men who sought his de feat at the hands of the 1913 legisla ture may hope for future election to office in this state. While Senator Thompson did not name the men rhnm h branded as "traitors." it is claimed by men in state politics that he referred to the Farrelly following, I which was a year ago charged with an attempt to bring about the defeat of Thompson in the state legislature. In the 1912 primaries, Thompson I defeated Farrelly for the senatorial nomination although the Chanute J lawyer won the popular majority. Following Senator Thompson's defeat i of VV. K. Stubbs in the November elec-I tion. it was repeatedly claimed by Thompson's friends that an effort was! being made by Farrelly and his friends j to cause the defeat of Thompson in the legislature. A few days before the J election of Thompson in a joint session of the legislature, it was charged that Farrelly and a few of his friends held a meeting in the Throop hotel at which time the fight on Thompson was discussed. It was the memory of these events, political leaders claim, which occasioned the Thompson speech In the United States senate in which he discussed Kansas political affairs. During the debate on the seating of Frank B. Glass to the vacant senator ship for Alabama, Senator Thompson relieved himself of some tender per sonal sentiment regarding elections of United States senators by direct vote of the people. "In my own state of Kansas we grew impatient for the government to act and adopted the Oregon plan, under which I was elected just before the constitutional amendment was adopt ed," the Kansas senator said. "In my case an attempt was made by a few political traitors to overturn the vote of the people and obtain an lection under the old plan. But the. more this was advocated the stronger my candidacy grew, so that finally I received almost the unanimous elec tion by the legislature. Not a single man who advocated that the will of the people, as expressed at the polls, be disregarded can hope to be elected to office now, high or low." j And then the senator added: "Al-1 though I understand that some of them aspire now to the senate." j Herr Would Run If. i J. N. Herr who was In Topeka this week declared that he will seek the Democratic congressional nominations in the Seventh district if George A. Neeley is a senatorial candidate. Herr, however, will not run if Neeley de sires a renominatlon. "I will not be a candidate except In event Mr. Neeley is a candidate for the senate," said Herr. "Neeley is en titled til renomination and re-election if he desires to make the race and I would not oppose him." Senator Jouett Shouse of Kinsley will also run for congress In the Sev enth, it is claimed, if Neeley sought a senatorial nomination.. Harmony In Stafford. Stafford county Republicans will hold a harmony meeting in St. John Friday to lay plans for a get-together campaign. According to a report from Stafford county, a number qf Roose velt supporters of a few months ago ar In favor of a reunited Republican party this year and will attend the meeting. Women on County Committee. Clay county is the first Kansas county to elect a woman as an officer of a county, central committee. At a meeting of Clay county Progressive this week, Mrs. J. W.

Mackenzie, wife of Gordon Mackenzie, the singer, has taken her case to the supreme court of the United States, with the intention of determining the validity of the federal statute which says that an American woman who marries an alien thereby takes the nationality of her husband. Mrs. Mackenzie, who was born in this state, and who. was a citizen of mittee. Plans of the Clay county Bull Moosers will give the women equal representation with the men on the county committee. Foster Wants Federal Job. B. F. Foster of Topeka, colored, is a candidate for the appointment as recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. The office has for several years been allotted to a negro and now Senator Thompson is seeking the ap-, pointment of the Topeka man. During the second term of President Cleve land, C. H. J. Taylor of Wyandotte county was appointed to the office now sought by Foster. Not since that time has a Kansas man held the office. HINT FROMTHE CZAR. Is Said to Be Cause of Plndell's De clining Ambassadorship. Washington, Feb. 5. The recent i i. vmafr nf amnfliisaxior to Russia by Henry H. Pindell of j Peoria, III., followed a nini uuu czar that Mr. Pindell would not be ac ceptable as ambassador. A few days before Mr. Pindell s let ter of declination was sent to the president Ambassador Bakhmeteff ol Russia Is said to have called on Secre tary Bryan and transmitted to him the gentle hint from the czar thatMr. Pin dell be not sent to Russia. The Rus sian ambassador is said to have been greatly embarrassed by the mission. All the correspondence which form ed the basis of the opposition to Mr. Pindell's appointment in the senate. In which the committee and the sen ate gave the Peoria editor a clean bill of health, was transmitted tothe Rus sian foreign department. While the senate confirmed Mr. Pindell finally, practically without opposition. It Is said the Russian government took the position that with the Important mat ter of the negotiating of a new treaty to come up it would be better for all concerned if the United States repre sentative at the Russian court should not be handicapped by the embarrass ment of the fight he had been through The state department is silent upon the report tnai me nusomu ment had sent this hint to Mr. Bryan. It was taken generally, however, as the correct explanation of Mr. Pin--dell's recent declination of the Rus-j slan post. Mr. Pindell was in Wash-. lngton ana conierreu department a few days before he de clined the pest. THE DAY III CONGRESS The House Continues Debate on the Alaska Railroad Bill. Washington, Feb. 5.

fS HER FROM VOTIw'G Alackenziav California prior to her marriage to the well-known Scotch tenor, brought suit for a writ of mandamus against the election commission of this city be cause its members refused to allow her to register in January of last year. The refusal was based on the federal statute referred to. The' supreme court of California upheld the action of the election commissioner but, after agreeing with Mrs. Mackenzie's at torney that a federal question was In volved, the court granted a wrtt "of error to the supreme court the United States. BRYAN ASKS FOR TIME Urges Congress to Take No Action on Asiatic Exclusion Hill. Washington. Feb. 5. Secretary Bry an urged the house immigration com mittee today to take no action on the Raker bill, for exclusion of Asiatic immigrants. Diplomatic negotiations between the United States and Japan over the California anti-alien land law and the whole question of Asiatic ex clusion was discussed at length behind closed doors. The secretary bound Republicans and Democrats to secrecy and told them the administration needed to be free from legislative em barrassments, in dealing with the sit uation diplomatically. It was general ly understood the wishes of the state department would be respected and that no effort would be made to press the bill before the committee at this time. Secretary Bryan told the committee that unless some untoward circum stances arose, he hoped for an ami cable adjustment of the Japanese question. An agitation In congress at this time, he declared would be most unfortunate. Representatives Raker and Hayes of California were the only members of the committee inclined to oppose the wish of the secretary that action in the matter be indefinitely postponed. Oth ers readily agreed that nothing should be done which would in any way em barrass the administration. A DAY OF GLOOM. And There Is More Bad Weather on the Way. This is a day of gloom, and the chances are that there will be snow flurries before morning. A cold wave Is predicted for the extreme north portion of the state, but it is not ex pected to extend as far south as To peka. The minimum temperature at Topeka will probably be about fifteen degrees Friday. Shippers' forecast: "Protect 36 hour shipments north and west against tem perature of zero; east. 15 degrees; south. 20 to 25 degrees." At 2 o'clock this afternoon the wind was blowing from the east at the rate of 12 miles an hour.

First Shipper to Testify In Favor of i Higher Rates. Washington, Feb. 5. The first tes timony by shippers, favoring an in crease in freight rates, was developed today, before the interstate commerce commission, at its hearing on protests against the. 5 per cent advance, asked by the eastern railroads. T. A. Gantt, traffic manager cf the Corn Products Refining company, testified that his company had no objection to the in crease if the rate made no discrimina tion in favor of competitors, KANSAS- FEBRUARY 5, 'HA7ATI AM HfEM i.jiitii i tint i iiiii.ii Mexican Rebels Capture First Seaport Im JLeng Time. Fall of the Cttj Accompanied by Hot Fighting. THEeascmpcKED By Withdrawal of Troops to Guard Guaymas. Arms and Ammunition Are Pouring Across' the Border. Nogales, Feb., 5.-Masmtlan, an im portant seacoast port in the state of Slnaloa. was taken by Carranza's rebels today, according to rebel advices from Sonora. The rebels had been investing, the city for some time,. jtavlng captured Culiacan. the state 4 capital, several weeks ago. Culiacan is north 4f Mazatlan and it was used by the rebels as a supply base for their attacst on the federal troops in Mazatlan. i The federals had taken the larger portion oi ineir troops out of Mazat lan and sent them Ut the defense of Guaymas, which ihey evidently thought the rebels wfuld first try to invest. This weaken the garrison 10 sucn an extent tntt the rebel in vestiture was com: ktiyely easy, al- though much hot Bting is said to have accompanied th i fall of the port. The rebels used suery in the at tack and their shells shattered many of the buildings In the town. The rebels had the advantage of protect ing hills in the attack and the federal gun fire was not serious. Mazatlan is the home of many rich Spaniards and Mexicans. The fan of the town will place many, people with money in a position .where they may be forced to contribute to the rebels. Mazatlan is a port from which, much shipping is done. It is also the home of many fishermen, aid its cargoes go not only to Mexican ut to California ports. The capture of Mazatlan places the first seaport m the posses sion of the rebels. For months the Carranzcistas have ..battled for the possession -of Guaymas, Sonora, the most important seaport, without avail. Many Wltb Arms to Sell. Culiacan, Mexico, Fb. S. Lifting of the embargo an the. exportation of arms from the Unit d States caused great activity amonjg constitutional military chiefs. General Carranza's headquarters here wfre flooded today with" telegrams fromArma manufac turers in many parts of the world. The propositions offered showed, the action of President Wilson had aided the credit of the revolutionary party. If, as expected, the United States de livered the arms and ammunition con fiscated along the border since the be ginning of the rebellion the insurgents would have the elements necessary to begin at once an aggressive campaign. It is intimated that about 1,600,000 cartridges and nearly 3,000 rifles have been confiscated by the United States authorities .during the .last year. Hnerta Issues an Order. Mexico City, Feb. 5. A circular of in structions was Issued today, by Pro visional President Huerta, to the chiefs of all army divisions and governors of states. It recites the government has begun a more active campaign against the rebels and urges that extreme dili gence be observed, in giving Ul possible protection to non-combatants, foreign as well as native removing them when necessary from the zones of operations. Takes Conservative View. Mexico City, Feb. 5. Dr. Igancio Al cocer, acting minister of the interior, in commenting today on the raising of the embargo on arms by the United States, said it was proof of the sincerity of President Wilson, since for a long time nobody had been ignorant of the fact that there had been undisguised toler ance in the matter of introducing arms and ammunition across the border. He said it would not aid the revolutionists but that on the other hand, the Mexican government would profit by it "since it presents a happy opportunity to make known the power which it really pos sesses." Dr.- Alcocer said he hoped in the near future Mexico would have amicable re lations with the United States because j nsm ana jusiice were oouna to prevail. Get Back Their Guns. Washington, Feb. 6. Hundreds of thousands of rounds of rifle and ma chine gun ammunition under seizure along the Mexican border are being turned over to the constitutionalists as fast as they prove ownership. During the two years the embargo on arms has been in force, agents of the department of justice have arrested hundreds of men in the act of transporting arms across the border and nave seized car loads of ammunition. In many cases the ammunition so seized was turned over after it had been used as evidence. Such arms as may be needed as evi dence against persons, still under in dictment, will not be released for the present. It was said however, the de- l partment of Justice probably will not attempt to prosecute all the cases against arms smugglers. MOOSE 60 IT ALONE. The Party in Maine Rejects Overtures of Republicans. Portland, Me., Feb. 5. The progres sives of Maine today, rejected a Repub lican proposal for amalgamating the two parties and decided to place a com plete state ticket in the field. SAYS IT-CANT CE DOIIE Senator Sutherland Declares Presiden tial primary Bill Unconstitutional. Washington, Feb. 5. Debate on Pres ident Wilson's proposal for presidential primaries, came up in the senate today with Senator Walsh's bill for a tempor ary method of nomination and election of senators. Senator Sutherland, Re publican, contended that a federal pri mary election law woum a 1914. stltutionaL Senator. Walsh's bill brought up by disposition of the Lee and Glass contests from Maryland and Alabama. I "I disagree with the president." said 1 Senator Sutherland. "The constitution provides that the manner of selecting presidential electors shall be determin ed by the state legislatures. If we could pass a law we would have no power to enforce it" The proposed law would be operative enly until state legislatures under the express direction of the seventeenth amendment should provide other means for governing senatorial elections. KEPT HER SECHET. Woman Arrested for Passing Raised Bills Would Not Tell Her Name. New York, Feb. 5. The identity of a. little woman, arrested in a depart ment store recently, on a charge of passing bills that had been raised from S20 to 350, was still her own se cret today, when she left the court room, acquitted by a federal jury. For want of a better name the detec tives had called her "Jane Brown." She refused to tell who she was be cause, she said, she hoped some day to become reconciled, with her hus band and she did not wish him to bear of her arrest. The- jury refused to convict her because the secret service men could not prove that she know that the bills she passed were not genuine. WILSONJIGIITS IT President Is Unalterably Op posed to Any Exemption Of American Shipping From Paying Canal ToUs. Washington, Feb. 5. President Wilson announced today that he would use every legitimate influence at his disposal to have repealed the provision of the Panama, canal act ex empting American- coastwise vessels from the payment of tolls. The president made it clear that he was unalterably opposed to the ex emption and that his position had been perfectly well understood for some time. He emphasized that he would endeavor to have the provision repealed during the present session of congress. This was to clear up the Impression which Senator O'Gorman of New York, an advocate of the ex emption, gave after a White House conference, to the effect that the toll controversy would be crowded out of the legislative calendar of the present session by the trust bills and appro priation measures If a short session were com opiated. HURRY RURAL CREDITS It Has Been Agreed to 'Pass the Bill at This Session. Washington, Feb. 5. Under a definite agreement between President Wilson and Democrat house and -senator lead ers, rural credits legislation, will be hur ried through at this session" of congress.

The committee will hold hearings in Washington but will hurry them along in an effort to get a bill before the house early in April. Senator Owen and Representative Bulkeley will arrange for co-operation between the house and senate commit tees and they may hold Joint hearings. FOUND BY HER UNCLE. High.

Foster, at Roland Park, a fashion able suburb for Washington today, the house caught fire and was practically destroyed entailing a loss of about $20. 000. The blaze occurred on the senator's 69th birthday, but he Bald he did not regard it as a stroke of bad luck be er, use it might have been much worse.

The fate of Hans Schmidt, accused of the murder of Anna Anmuller, was placed in the hands of a jury today for the second time. At his former trial the jury dis agreed.

DORRITY'S FUNERAL The Seller of Books Had Friends Who Cared. The funeral of John Dorrity was held this morning at the Church of the Assumption, Father Hayden offi ciating. Dorrity died alone in a To peka rooming house last Monday. No one seems to know where his home was or where any of his rela tives can be found. He died alone among strangers. And yet there would have been many friends with Dorrity in his last sickness had he given out word that he was ill. Dorrity was a seller of books and he had been coming to this city twice a year lor many years oast. Abso lutely contrary to the general status of book agents, his customers were his friends. He was a reader as well as a seller of books. He was always welcome when he came to talk of the printed page. He was as genial when he failed of n order as when he took one.. It has developed since his death that he had been suffering from the ravages of a cancer for about a year. Bui a few days before his death, when he made the round of his friends and customers in Topeka to talk and sell books, no one could have dreamed that he was ill beyond a slight indis position of vhich he complained, with a smile to lighten the complaint. The newspaper man, and the sher iff, who was a newspaper man, at tended the funeral of the man who died alone away from his DeoDle. And there was a doctor and a lawyer tnere, ana a merchant and a chief. They had left their mirth and their employments to come and pay their last respects to tne aeaa book agent. Only a handful in the big, empty cnurcn. tsui fatner Hayden chanted the requiems as solemnly and the singer from tne organ loft resDonded as sweetly as though a duke had died and a crowded hall listened breath less. That is the beauty of the Cath olic faith. All the candles were light ed like stars of faith, the bell and the book were used, nd the incense and all the solemn ceremony, for this stranger without family, home or money, just tne same as for the own er of a big bouse on a hill. Dorrity was a book agent, but a dozen men who have abused the tribe of these agents for twenty years sat in sorrow wntie tne last rites were said to speed his soul. It Is not what you do In this pilgrim valley; It is now you ao it. jonn Dorrity s epi taph. Rest his soul. Peace Treaty with Denmark. Washington, Feb. 6.

The success of Rodiran Wanamakers flying boat, in crossing the Atlantic ocean in a single flight, will depend almost entirely upon Its motor, according to aviators and aeroplane instructors who today let it be know that other machines were either in process of designing or band ing, with a similar object la view. Through the Aero Club of America Mr. Wanamaker announced Glenn H. Curtlns wa building to his order an immense hydro aeroplane In which an -attempt wuld be made this summer to crees the Atlantic. When the order for the machine waa placed. Mr. Cur tiss told Mr. Wanamaker that in his opinion a motor could be perfected with sumrcent power and endurance for an over the ooean flight. His and other aviafrs experience had proven, he ex- plained to Mr. Wanamaker. that a mo tor can be run 40 or 50 hours with out mishar The Waeamaker flier is designed to make the ocean flight in fifteen hours. Concerning the machine Itself. Mr. Cur tiss was co indent that his plans would produce a model air craft. Albert Molsant wSo today admitted that he was n arking on an airship, for an ocean night, was of the opinion that Mr. Wansmake should modify his plans as to motive power, substituting a' 600 horse powffr motor for the 200 horse power, whleh his announcement says he contemplates using. A Lr.ng Cherished Vision. Mr. Wanamaker, commenting upon the purposed flight declared that its ac- compUhmetit bad been a cherished f vltioc of his for years. His pur- pose, he said, was in the interest of world peac and by this he explained that a trip over the ocean in one flight would awa&en th world to a realise- tion cf the tremendous importance of aviation in warfare. "Tlf s yer," he said, ''we are cele brating a hundred years of peace be- twees Great Britain and America and it would be a fitting climsur to the cele bration if t fiese-two nations could Unk themselves more closely together, by an. interiiaUoikftl flight across the Atlantic. demoaatrat'jtg to the world that the time for disarmament of nations is at -hand if foi no other reason than be- cause aeronautics has reached a stage -where ever- the greatest dread naught -battleship may become futile." To Try It This Summer. In makini the announcement that the flight will surely be undertaken this sumrber, the Aero Club of America, on behalf of Mr. Wanamaker, has asked for the co-operation of all persons in- te rested in teeing America first to con- quer the at routes between the United States and Europe and also the eo- -operation df the United States weather bureau, th navy, and all owners of pleasure yrchts and merchant vessels. Owners cf private yachts planning cruises, it was said, could perform pa triotic service by making their plans tor a cruise in thei North Atlantic. It is tli hope of the Aero club that the route which the flying boat will cruise will be dotted by American and British pleasure ytchts. The routs Is from St. John's, New foundland, to the Irish coast and has -already been mapped out by Rodman Wanamaker, who made a trip to Eu rope for tl-at purpose. It calls for L 000 miles of continuous flying to be done, if pwssible, between dawn and nightla.ll oJ a single day. HOUSE COURTS A VETO Passes Immigration Bill Turned Down by Taft and Cleveland.

He was placed in the Leaven worth county Jail to evade a Wyan dotte county mob and was positively Identified as one of the assailants. "Toots" Rambo, Johnson's alleged ac complice, was not thoroughly identi fied. But in the trial of the cases, Rambo was convicted and Johnson was acquitted. Johnson and McKim were suspected of numerous robberies and holdups, but not until after the Bierick killing were the men convicted of crime. The shooting of the Atchison saloon keeper occurred May 1, 1903. Mc Kim and Johnson entered the saloon and ordered Bierick to throw up his hands. Instead, the saloonkeeper drew a revolver and began firing. In the pistol duel which followed, Bier ick was killed and Johnson was bad ly wounded, but when the police ar rived succeeded in making his escape from the saloon. In the trial of the case, Johnson sought to prove an alibi, but it was broken by the sud den and unexpected confession of Mc Kim. Both men were convicted of first degree murder and sent to the penitentiary for life terms. Johnson a Prison Surgeon. Inside the prison walls, McKim and Johnson told the warden that they expected to reform. Johnson was given a place in the prison hos pital. He had once worked as a sur geon's assistant and in a few months the well known murder convict be came a valuable man. He assisted in almost every major operation and personally handled scores of minor operations. Fellow prisoners looked on Johnson with admiration and re spect and his work during the recent penitentiary fire was largely respon sible for the granting of his parole. A dozen men were taken to the hos pital suffering from burns and in juries. Johnson never left their side. He was on the Job day and night and his cool, unerring judgment and de votion to fellow prisoners attracted the attention of the prison officials and Governor Hodges, who arrived at the penitentiary a few hours after the Are started. McKim has for several years been prison mall carrier. Although the man was a life termer he has for sev eral years enjoyed the freedom of the prison grounds and was one of the most faithful trusties in the institu tion. McKim was "dressed out" at the prison several days ago and is now in Kansas City. Johnson will leave the penitentiary in a few days, according to reports from Lansing. IS ARITHMETIC ALIVE?

Cecil, who has charge of the day's program, Mrs. B. B. Smythe will set forth plans on this question before the farmers. This question has been discussed to no little extent by the consumers of Topeka but this is the first time it has ever been carried to the producers north of the city. The largest part of the garden produce and fruit sold in Topeka is raised by the gardeners, fruit men and farmers of the north ern part of the county.

Sev enteen pies brought $8.35. Some of them sold as high as 75 cents each.

(Boudoir Secrets) No woman need longer tolerate ugly hairy growths, for with a single application of a plain delatone paste it Is an easy matter to quickly ban ish hair or fuzs- from any part of the face or neck. Just mix some water with a little powdered delatone and spread this on the hairy surface for 2 or 3 minutes, then rub it off and the skin will be free from hair or blemish. After this treatment the skin should be washed to free it from the remaining delatone. Adv. Through an arrangement made by Miss Jessie BonsteUe with the surviv ing relatives of Louisa M. Alcott, "Lit tle Women" has been dramatized by William A. Brady, and New Yorkers placed the seal of their approval upon the play last year by keeping it at the Playhouse, one of the most luxurious theaters of the metropolis, for the whole season. Miss de Forest's dramatization will be the attraction at the Grand on Sat urday afternoon and night and prom ises to be one of the dramatic events of the season here. Harry Lauder, the famous Scotch co median; who comes to the Grand on Saturday night, February 14, is 43 years old. but he says he remembers the day he was born. "A gey row ye kick up that day," he quotes his mother. "The neighbors across the street heard ye roarin and cam over tee ask if ye was twins." "So," Lauder continues, "at that early period of my professional career I must have been a double vo calist." Mail orders are now being re ceived for Mr. Lauder's engagement. There are delightful touches of com edy in "The Divorce Question," which comes to the Grand on Wednesday night, interwoven with this truth tell ing story that gives the necessary con trast and make the salient features of the play stand out all the more promi nent.

T stats Journal Is a member of the Associated Press and reeatves the fall day telegraph report of that great news r ganlzatlon for the exoluslvs afternoon publication In Topeka. The news is received to The State jour nal building over wires for this sole pur pose. Bachelor uncles are likely to view (with alarm the new practice of send ing babies by parcel post. Aa the 111 wind work out. Many (Of the Ben. Davis apple troea In Kan sas were killed by last summer's drouth. At least the new tariff seems to have provided the right kind of grease to send the butter craft sliding- down the ways. Congress should think well before eliminating all Asiatic exclusion feat tires from the Immigration bill. Cali fornia might secede. This Is also the season of the year Iwhen most of the teams in the several baseball leagues look like possible pennant winners on paper. From the unusual activity displayed by Missouri's attorney general In the pursuit of "trusts" it is reasonable to assume that he has higher political ambitions to gratify. Of what does it profit a city to have a population of 6,000,000 people, like New York has, if It lacks employment for 331,000 of its men, which is the case there at present? Present indications are that that old Standby of a player, Mr. Injunc tion, lways held in reserve, will fig ure prominently this year in major league baseball circles After glancing- "down the narrow pathway hedged in by the ten com mandments of Buddha, it looks, to the Washington Post, as though a fel low might Just as well stay Christian ized. President Wilson, it is said, will remain neutral in respect to the race of Roger Sullivan for one of Illinois' seats in the United States senate. And in this instance will Brother Bryan say "me too?" Colombia will probably forget its grievances against Uncle Sam as soon as he hands over that $25,000,000 in cash which Secretary Bryan is' plan ning to give it. This is still another variety of dollar diplomacy. Bill Sulzer is out with the prophecy that Colonel Roosevelt will take con trol of the affairs of the state of New York on the first of next year and run them as they should be conducted. All of which is probably news to the colonel. These complications that follow the cure of cancer by radium and which cause the death of the patient are probably the twin sister of the shock that comes after bo many successful surgical operations and with such deadly results. It begins to look as though the Fed eral league is also financing the Pan ama exposition. For instance, the lat ter has Just announced prizes aggre gating $300,000 for an aeroplane race around the world, and $227,000 in purses for light harness races. Nor Is there anything particularly comic about the Valentine sent by President Wilson to Victoriano Huerta which has for its sentiment a few lines of blank verse to the effect that the embargo against the exportation of war munitions to. Mexico has been lifted. Evidently the automobile will have to go much faster than it has been traveling In the direction of putting the horse out of business. The latest statistics show that there are more than 20,000,000 horses in the United States of a value of more than $2,250, 000,000. It is a noticeable fact that none of the candidates for office, local, coun ty and state, are running on platforms containing planks with the suggestion that the jobs they are after should carry more pay. That will follow after their successes at the polls and with prospects good for second terms. News from Washington indicates that the greater navy enthusiasts have gone to the extent of juggling the sta tistics in the navy year book in such a way as to show that the naval strength of this country is Inferior to that of Germany, which it is said Is not a fact. The variety of crooks in the world seem to be without number. Again has the unexpected happened. Chicago women are not a bit reluctant to ttU their age so as to qualify to vote. But the suspicion will not down that many of them are not telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But what does it matter? While a little lie may never be en tirely Justifiable, It Is of ttbnes inevit able. NUTRIENTS FROM PLANTS. Without discussing the advantages and disadvantages of the use of foods of animal and vegetable origin, re spectively, we are bound to admit that man and animal alike are dependent on plants for nutrition. A recent writer has said that man is a parasite living on the plant kingdom. In so far as mankind obtains energy by con suming the flesh of the domestic ani mals, only a fraction of the supply taken by the latter in the plant prod ucts can ever reach the sphere of use fulness to man. The animals which furnish food to man are expensive converters of the energy of plants into a form directly available for his uses. Only a very small residue of the total energy-Intake of such animals is left in the tissues which they furnish as food to man; the great bulk of what has been consumed has become lost in the processes of animal life during the long periods of growth and main tenance before the animal food-products can be marketed. To appreciate this, one need only consider the enor mous amounts of vegetable food necessary to produce the flesh of cat tle for human consumption. A cow eats a liberal plant ration daily during several years before she Is ready for the market. It Is evident that It would be an advantage if man could utilise more directly the energy which he now se cures only after It has been converted by animals Into the forms that suit his preferences. Our vegetarian friends will at once remind us, says the Jour nal of the American Medical associa tion, that It has repeatedly been found quite compatible with health and hap piness to provide for human nutritive needs directly and entirely' from the plant kingdom. Hitherto the contri butions of the plant world to the hu man dietary have consisted of the parts of plants which serve as storage depots as reserve supplies for subse quent growth. Seeds, roots, tubers and fruits represent the chief types of plant products which find their way into the ration of mankind. These are by no means all well adapted for food; but the progress of science and the in dustries and the ingenuity of the do mestic arts have little by little so im proved the form in which such ma terials as cereals, nuts, etc., are pre sented for human consumption, that their utilization has become greatly enhanced. Processes for grinding, cooking and baking are not natural operations; they have been evolved by the genius of man so that he might readily take direct advantage of the energy which nature has stored up. The indigestibility of "raw" starch, as in the potato, is overcome by cookiifc?; the resistance of grains to digestion is minimized by grinding and cooking. The struggle to wrest energy from plant-products has been a long one. There are other plants which ani mals use freely, but which mankind has not yet employed. The green parts of plants, rich in food material contain so much cellulose that they can be utilized only to a small degree and with enormous waste. We may soften them by cooking and mastica tion, without liberating their food stuffs to any extent. It has long been believed that it may be possible to utilize green vege tables so- as to- render them more available for digestion and assimila tion by man. Some experiments in this direction have recently been car ried on in Germany. The outcome has been decidedly gratifying and may pave the way for useful innovations in the use of vegetable foods. It has been found that bean powder fed to man in the form of a puree contains far more nourishment than string beans served In the usual form. Spin ach, carrots, cabbage, etc.,. similarly prepared, were enjoyed with singular freedom from the troublesome intes tinal symptoms which so often follow their use. The usefulness of these plant-products appears to have been augmented by their preliminary treat ment. A group of vegetable products has thus been converted into a source of nutriment. The efficiency here re corded is rendered the more striking by the report from the Altona clinic that ten ounces per day of vegetable powder, equivalent to six pounds of fresh plant, may easily be assimilated an amount which in the natural state could not be tolerated. Possibly by suitable preparation, such plant p.-oducts as grasses, which have hith erto been excluded from the dietary of man, may yet be used as direct sources of energy in human nutrition. FARMS AND TRAFFIC. At a recent meeting of the Massa chusetts Street Railway association a speaker described the development of traffic in farm products on a line of the Bangor (Me.) Railway Electric company, notes the Electric Railway Journal. The line is 25 miles in length and serves a rural territory with a population of about 2.500. The gross re ceipts on the line were about $32,00" per year, and a radical step toward In creasing traffic waB taken about six years ago when the electric freight rates on potatoes and cordwood. the chief products of the territory through which the line passes, were cut in halt. This reduction was advertised widely and greatly helped in building up the territory. The traffic In potatoes in creased from eighty-one carloads In 1907 to 438 carloads in 1913, and it was expected that 600 carloads would be hauled in 1914. The receipts have In creased to $65,000 per year. No reduc tion has been made on supplies shipped to the farms over this line, and the company has gained a large amount of business through the transportation of fertilisers, farming implements and other commodities into the territory. Aside from establishing a model farm j six miles from Bangor the company has organised an association for- sell ing produce. No house 'deliveries are made In the handling of the trolley ex press sat nice, but ample faculties ere given te farmers along the line In the collection and distribution of freight from the track. The company's model farm Is being conducted with the co operation of the University of Maine. Journal Entries A goed listener Is sure to be popu lar with the ladies.

The Evening Story Mysterious Martha. (By Catherine Cooper.) Orayson let fall the grotesque knocker on the carved door of the Miller residence on the upper east side. "Miss Miller is not in. sir," said Binks, the butler, who had swung open the door. "I will wait," said Greyson. and would have suited the action to the word. "Ahem! A Miss Miller said she would probably .be gone six weeks." the butler Informed Orayson. His features expressed a deep disapproval of the errant nature of his young' mis tress. -Again, sne said she mlarht re turn tomorrow." "I will not wait." laughed Gray son, and returned to the cozy seat in his limousine. Despite his effort not to feel Irri tated over Martha Miller's absence he round himself decidedly so. This was the third time during his acquaintance with her that Martha had gone off suddenly on some mysterious trip, leaving no address and no knowledge of her whereabouts. The set in which Martha disported her beauty and charm, discussed these trips with open and sometimes none too friendly manner. Ugly ru mors found lodgement in one or two of the feminine gossips' tales. The men pondered, missed. Martha's dainty beauty and ready wit. and ceased to worry until she again quickened their nearx Deats with Her return. The day Grayson called upon Mar that he had almost decided to DroDose to her. He had known himself to be deeply In love with her for some time, yet he feared his own vagabond moods that came upon him as sud denly as the falllnsr of a. ntn, vr loathed society, and stood It only for the sake of his mother, who save teas galore. Yet Grayson was con ventional to the extent that no one suspected his inner revolt. Martha, too, had helped to make society agreable, and for her sake he permit ted himself to be bored by the hour attending the opera, teas and dinners. "i can not stand them without hr. however," he told himself, as his car whirled away from the door." 'me outcome was that Ornvwin had his suit case packed hurriedly and started off on one of his vagabond pil grimages. His sleeping bag and old khaki suit had been surreptitiously smuggled in the case when Jinks, his vaiei, naa xor tne moment turned his back. It was a most disreputable but happy Bob Grayson who chugged along the Long Island roads on his still more disreputable motorcycle. Not even Jinks would have known that the man was his master. However, Grayson was happy, con tended and hungry as he neared the bit of woods on the Sound that had otten sheltered hm over night. He would make a fire, broil bacon and make coffee in a tin can and later roll himself up In his sleeping tent and sleep the sleep of the carefree. In the morning he would be on his way to another and more remote abiding place. In the meantime, Martha Miller was as free, contented and happy as the man wno would pernaps have pro posed to her had she not escaped his call. In a tiny, whitewashed cottage, with not more than three still smaller rooms, she was cooking a savory stew over a coai lire, tier wonderful gold en hair was hanging In a braid down the back of a faded blue gingham dress, and she was humming a little snatch of some street song. But In the tiny patch of garden an old man lingered over his briaht- hued flowers. He was the owner of the cottage and gardener in the Miller family. Martha tripped lightly out to the wooden pump and drew a pall of iresn spring water, on ner way back to the cottage she stopped to speak to the old man. "David, I couldn't possibly live If you dian t let me come down here and share your dear little house. I already feel like a child of six, who has step ped into fairyland. I have written ten successful stories, for which you are to have the checks, and now I am go ing to write a novel with you as the hero." Martha laughed gaily and car ried her bucket into the little white washed kitchen. A great black cat was purring be side the stove, and a canary hung In the sunny window. On a wide deal table lay manuscripts In Joyful dis order, and a small typewriter. A tea pot and a heavy china cup gave evl dence that Martha drank tea during moments of inspiration. The savory stew on the stove was permeating the air. The man who had approached the cottage sniffed it nungrily and Knock ed a third time on the door. Martha clicked busily at her type writer and heard nothing save the voice of inspiration. She arose swiftly to her feet. second later, staring with wide eyes at the man who had Intruded himself uDon her. "Bobby Grayson!" she gasped. "You disreoutable tramp!" "Martha Miller!" returned Bobby wonderingly. "you ragged beggar maid!" His curiosity then broke bounds and he poured forth a volley of nuestions. Martha laughed in spite of her wrath at having been discovered. "It is just simply that I detest pink, yellow and green teas, morning musi calee and society in general! I fly to this haven of refuse when I can not stand it to be decent to people an other moment." Her voice trembled. "These are the only really happy hours I have In my whole lire." "The only ones Martha?" ques tioned Grayson looking into her eyes. "I have been hoping lately that you were not unhappy at times." He drew a aten nearer her. A brilliant color suffused Martha's cheeks. She cast a fleeting glimpse at him. "Yon- are such a dear, dlaa-raceful looking tramp. Have you lost your mind, or merely your money?",, she questioned with a swift smile. "Neither. I am only on one of my semi-annual trips into the land of vagabonds. It fat the Joy of my life this getting down to nature,-- and I was half afraid to tell you I love you, for you seemed so terribly conven tional." "I did not want to seem eccentric." admitted Martha. "That was my reason for concealing my "Dreams?" suggested Grayson soft ly. "Well, such dreams as you have apparently been having are worth con cealing from a curious public." His eyes roamed about the cozy, humble abode then returned to the girl. "I would not rob yon of a single hour of thisi if you will sometimes take me into dreamland with you. I love you. girl." He held open his arms and when she slipped into them he drew her close. (Copyrighted 1914, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Evening Chat BY RUTH CAMERON. A Plea for the Unlucky Lucky Folks. The little girl across the way is for tunate enough to have a father who be lieves that a child needs two parents for its bringing up aa well as Its begetting. His wife does not have to tie the modern father-mother, for her husband. Instead of acting merely as a kind of walking pocketbook for the children, takes an ac- uve interest in their dally uvea, He even likes to know about little Elisabeth's home lessons, and sometimes when she cannot master her sums he helps her with them, and thereby hangs my tale. I said Elisabeth waa fortunate to have a father who would help her with her sums, and so she is. Yet, there is a very big fly in the ointment. I'll let Elizabeth tell you about It as she told her mother and me.- Yeu see I happened to be calling there the day she brought 'home her ''report card." That momentous document contained a long desired "A" in arithmetic, beside several other excellent marks. Her mother was delighted, and Elisabeth was evidently on the verge of tears. A ques tion or two and the storm broke. "It doesn't do me any good to get 'A,' sob bed Elizabeth, "all the girls say I ought to get high marks when father does all my sums for me and heipa me with all my lessons." "But he doesn't do your sums, dear," protested her mother indignantly; "he just helps you to find the way to do them once in a while when they are very hard." "I know it," sobbed Elizabeth, "nobody believes that. Just because he was a school teacher once they say he does all my work for me." As I listened to little Elisabeth's protest against tne unjust judgment of the world, another occasion flashed into my mind. A group of people were discussing one of the young men of the neighborhood who had married the daughter of his employer. "Pretty soft for him," said one. "You know he has been promoted right" over the heads of older men and men who have been there three times as lone aa he," said another. "No wonder he flashes Dy in an automobile' while the rest of us are still using shanks mare," commented a third. Now, aa It happens, the young man In question is very brilliant and stands head and shoulders above his critics. Of course, it is impossible to say that he would have risen as rapidly if he ha4 noi Deen wonting ior ms xatner-ln-law, but I think it is equally as impossible to say that he would not. And yet, never in the world will he receive credit fee his rise. -jJ- V :r-"K".;,.: I know another man who' actually re fused to go into his father's business on this account. "No matter what I do I'll never get the credit for it," he said, "I'd rather start out for myself and then peo ple will know that whatever I accom plish I've won by my own ability and not by favor and I'll know it, too." He eventually made emphatically good in another man's employ, and, having proved his worth beyond cavil, entered into part nership with his father. Little Elizabeth's experience Is typical of the world's judgment. If a man has some advantage of circumstance over his fellow men, whatever success he may win is attributed to that advantage and none to his personal worth. It is pleasant to have advantages, but, as Elisabeth found, advantages have their disadvantages. There Is a fly In the ointment, and to one of a proud spirit it is sometimes a mighty big drawback. New Railways In Spain. The three lines of railway through the heart of the Pyrenees, between France and Spain, now under construction, will be of great commercial value, as shorter and more direct means of transit than have hitherto existed. The line between Jaea, Spain, and Olo ron, France,-will be finished, it is thought, in 1917.- In June, 1914, the Chemln de Fer du Midi of France will begin to operate that portion reaching from Oloron to Bedons. The work from Bedons to Estant haa been taken over by the contractors building the Somport tunnel, who will prepare the roadbed for rail, and it is thought that the tunnel will be completed during the coming year. Work on the Spanish part is proceeding rapidly. The Gaceta de Madrid of October tt publishes a law submitted to the cortes on the 25th, providing for changing the gauge of the connecting railway from near Saragossa to Jaca from the Spanish standard gauge (5.48 feet) to the normal European gauge (4.72 feet) and for the necessary changes in the rolling stock. Evidences of the increasing prosperity of Spanish railways are numerous. Dur ing the past ten years passengers have Increased from S1.O0O.OOO per year to 68,000, 000 per year; freight from 18,000,000 tons to 82,000,000 tons, and railway receipts from 270,000.000 pesetas to 394,000,000 pesetas (gold peseta equals $0,193). Where ten years ago the capacity of the factories for building cars was but 000 per year, it la now over 2,000 cars per year. The Anuarlo de erra carrlles for 1913 shows the following roll ing stock in use on all railways in Spain: Passenger locomotives, 330; freight, 1,223; combined passenger and freight, 830; a total of 2,383. Passenger cars of all classes number 6,075, while of the 46,675 freight cars 1,950 are used for baggage and fruit transDortation: 19.284 are box ears and 25,606 are gondolas and flat cars.

Indeed, such discussion is highly necessary, except in Russia, where the people are supposed to have no -concern whatever with the doing of their government. It la undoubtedly true that newspaper discussion of foreign policies Is sometimes embarrassing, particularly when it is based on false information; yet the injury done to International relations by such discussion is small in compari son with the injury done by vain, med dlesome, and ambitious diplomacy. Most international misunderstandings are brought about by blundering diplomatists. Most wars are brought about by diplo matic and political Intrigue. As a his torian the president is doubtless well aware of this fact- The president in his' Mexican policy has had an Illuminating example of the value of openness and frankness in dealing with foreign rela tions. He took the country into his con fidence, and aa a result practically every newspaper of importance In the United States is holding up fats hands. If he will take the country into his confidence In respect to his other foreign policies, he can reasonably expect an equal meas ure of support. Of all the myths of gov ernment the most ridiculous myth is that of diplomacy the notion that Internation al Ml,tlMik must be conducted In hM- and-seek behind closed doors lest each side might miss an opportunity to cheat the other. There Is nothing in It.

A Simple Hemedy That Guarantees Good Bowel Action. Trace the origin of the commoner Ills of life and almost invariably you will find that constipation was the cause. It is not to be expected that a mass of fermented food can remain in the system beyond its time without vitiating the blood and affecting the nerves and muscles. It congests the entire body. The results are colds, fevers, piles, headaches and nervousness, with its accompanying indigestion and sleep lessness. There Is only one thing to Uo, and that is to remove the trouble; and when nature seems unable to do It, outside aid is necessary. Tou will find that best of all outside aids a remedy that many thousands are now using for this very purpose, called Dr. ui c. aiawell a Syrun Pepsin.

Robert Gunn Bremner, member of congress from the Seventh New Jersey district and editor of the Passaic Daily Herald, died today of cancer, at a local sani tarium, where he had been undergo ing radium treatment since last De cember. Mr. Bremner was 39 years old, and married but childless. Mr. Bremner came to the sanitar ium to try the radium after physi cians In this country and Europe had vainly tried to cure him. It was found that the disease had made such inroads upon him that little could be done to help him and that the fight against death would be made with all the odds against him. Mr. Bremner was optimistic and tubes containing (100,000 worth of radium were ap plied to the growth. Improved at First. For a time the patient seemed to improve and members of his family frequently expressed the belief that he would recover. They clung to this hope until a few days ago when the sick man was seized with a sinking spell. From that time on, Mr. Brem ner grew steadily weaker, although he several times rallied, in a surprising manner, aided by his strong vitality and powerful will. In his last days of suffering. Mr. Bremner still fought on and insisted that he would get well. He declared that' he wanted to go back to congress to fight for a bill to have a government-owned radium institute, so that this mineral could be at the uisposai or tne rich and poor alike. jar. tsremner was a warm personal friend of President Wilson who was kept constantly advised of his condi tion and who frequently sent him mes sages of sympathy and encouragement, muumiiaiiieu wun nowers. Mr. Brem ner's election to congress was accom plished while he lay in bed ill. He did not make a speech. The election is said to have been a tribute to his pluck. On the night before the election President Wilson, then arovprn nr of New Jersey, visited Passaic and made a speech for Bremner. Mr. Bremner was a native of TCpIrh Caithness, Scotland, whence his fam ily emigrated to Canada when he was a youth. His mother Mrs. Alexander Bremner, is living In Camille. Canada. NEW HEAD OF U. S.

The report of the probable Immedi ate decision (n the famous Nebraska 2 -cent fare case, has opened an old sore among the passenger traffic of ficials of the railway lines with head quarters in Topeka and a tale of re duced revenues owing to the pruned rates is told from behind the glass topped tables in the general offices here today. It is the declaration among Topeka passenger men and operating offi cials as well that the 2 -cent rate has sliced revenues in Kansas. The of ficials admit that traffic has been in creased to some extent, since the ad vent of the 2-cent fare in Kansas in 1907, but railroad men. never figure on traffic they prefer to converse about returns and revenues. juere is tne way we ngure it, a well known, passenger official said this afternoon. "The passenger busi ness has taken a bad slump in Kansas especially the last year. When the 3 cent fare was cut to two cents, travel picked up. Then the newness wore off. The business shrunk back to the regular channels. As a result our gross revenues slumped with the decrease and we have suffered a severe loss ever since." It is announced in Topeka railway circles today that the railroads operat ing in Oklahoma will open up a new fight soon on the 2-cent fare recently ordered in that. state. Oklahoma has enjoyed a 2-cent rate since July but the railways are not through with their defense or offense. The news of the oncoming" Nebraska decision has created a renewed inter est in the prolonged fare fight and railway men are awaiting with con siderable concern, the outcome of the battle in the Nebraska courts.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOUIIlTALTntJCCDAY CVEna TZZZTJAISZ 6, 1C14. DEFEUDS THE BOURSE i Governor of Stock Exchange Before Senate Banking Committee. MEDICAL MEN THE WORLD OVER WATCH B AND STUDY CASE OF THE FRENCH TWINS" Washington, Feb. 5. W. H. Van Antwerp, a governor of the New York stock exchange, today told the senate banking committee that the Owen bill, for government regulation of stock exchanges, would do more harm than good and that enforced incor poration would destroy America's primary market place. The discip linary power of the New York ex change over its members, based upon "just and equitable principles of trade," he said, was a stronger re- i straint than could be provided by any law. He pointed out that to incor- porate the exchange would transfer the power of government into the courts, where Judicial reviews would displace the arbitrary powers- of the government. Mr. Van Antwerp declared the New York exchange applied the lay man's view of what was just and equitable and was governed more by moral than legal considerations. If the exchange were to adopt the regu lations of the Owen bill, he declared, thirteen billions of stocks and thirteen billions of bonds would be imme diately withdrawn from the lists and the exchange would cease to be a market of importance. ;,He added, however, that the listing of securities and that organization's capitalization and flotation of securities was .a mat ter for goverhment regulation:' "It is a duty that clearly belongs to the gov ernment," said he, -"and the stock exchange will rejoice when the gov ernment undertakes that responsibil ity." Rnle Against Manipulation. The stock exchange rule V against manipulation, he said, was more sweeping and was dmtnietered in a far more effective manner than any thing that could be. done by the post master general. Mr. Van Antwerp declared that the Owen i bill, would only paralyze exchanges in the United States and leave those in Canada and in Europe free to carry on business. He discussed at length the technical provisions of the bill relating to mar ket practices, and spoke of the provi sion that would bar from the mails any newspaper containing a report of stock exchange transactions. "If .congress may exclude from the malls newspapers containing perfect ly, truthful (although prohibited) re ports of transactions upon an ex change," said he, "there is no reason that I can see why congress cannot similarly exclude newspapers con l -'Wit W- IT A JOXL The City's Quarantine for Those Ex posed to Smallpox. y.mnaw.,- LEQAL.

He Would Pnrnlsh Electricity for All Topeka Consumers. F. M. Newland. commissioner of electric lights, declared this morning that he was in favor of the city sup plying the electricity used in the thousands of Topeka homes. Mr. New land went so far as to mention buying out the Edison company.: Numerous persons are backing Mr. Newland In this resolve. Complaints concerning the exorbitant prices charged by the Edison company are great. The mat ter was brought to a head by the re quest for an official investigation of the Edison company's books. "Undoubtedly municipal ownership of the plant supplying electricity to Topeka homes would be an excellent plan," said Mr. Newland, "but it would involve a tremendous expense, a bond issue, and the importation of expert engineers." If the city decided definitely to supply the current. It would have to decide between enlarging its own plant or purchasing the Edison plant. The city is already poled and wired with fixtures owned by Topeka taxpayers. In event of competition, it is claimed, the Edison company would, of course, lower its rates. If the city met this reduction, and was obliged to make up the deficit in taxes, it would still be making money over the reduction in rates, and Topekans would not be forking out any more coin. Strike of Waiters In Chicago. Chicago, Feb. 5. Cooks and waiters, employed In a big Randolph street res taurant, walked out today, because their demands had not been granted. The union officials said the strike would extend to 35 restaurants controlled by the Restaurantkeepers' association, un less the request of the employees for increased wages, shorter hours and one day off each week, is complied with. A police guard was asked by the restau rant affected today. TOMORROW FISH Fancy Fresh Dressed Channel Cal per pound 12c SMELTS Fresh, NOT FROZEN, per pound lOc APPLES Grimes Golden, per peek 40c Head Lettuce per head KOItNS MYERS Appeal to the supreme court was tak en today in the widely known Wisner will case from Sedgwick county, which attracted state wide attention when it was tried last falL Notice of appeal was served by C. Q. Chandler, a Wich ita banker.. and other party defendants in the suit. They were charged with using undue Influence in inducing the late Dr. Henry Wisner to bequeath his property to members of the Chester i. Long household and to the Women's Christian Temperance Union. Wisner was one of the wealthiest men in Barber county and owned several large tracts of land near Medicine Lodge, the former home of Senator Long. At the time of his death, Wisner left two sons by his second wife. He had been' married three times, each of his former wives having died. The liv ing heirs, Charles H. Wisner and Henry J. Wisner. were sons by his second wife. Evidence introduced in the trial of the case, showed that the second Mrs. Wis ner owned property valued at 3100,000 when she married Wisner'. that he lost the money in unsuccessful business speculations and that at the time of Mrs, Wisner's death suit for divorce was pending in the Chicago courts. Wisner's two sons, it was claimed,, re fused to permit the father to see the body of their dead mother. In this ac tion, they claimed, they observed a wish of their mother. The two living heirs were at that time children 15 and 16 years old. In 18S5, Wisner was again married, came to Kansas and made a fortune. With a brother, he engaged in the cat tle business in Barber county and was for a number of years a close friend of Chester I. Long, former United States senator. Wisner was also an admirer of the late Carrie Nation, also a reel- dent of Medicine Lodge. In his last will, Wisner bequeathed $25,000 to at Miss Vera Clemens and members of the i Chester I. Long household. Much of j his remaining fortune was willed to the I Women's Christian Temperance Union. wisner was 88 years old at the time the will was made. Following their father's death, the children sought to set aside the will and charged that undue influence had been brought to bear in the making of the will. The jury found for the plain tiffs, although the Journal entry ab solved Senator Long from any connec tion with the transaction. Evidence showed that Wisner had gone to Long's office to have his will prepared, stated his desire and asked Senator Long to prepare the document. When Senator Long learned that members of his household were to benefit by the provi sions of the will, he refused to act as Wisner's attorney and Judge A. E. Helm prepared the papers. The transcript of the case is bulky, as nearly two weeks were required in the trial of the case in Wichita, where the will was made. Prominence of per sons connected with the case, caused state wide interest in the trial last fall. PADEREVSKI FEB. 18.

Oh, all lovers who are far away from the smile of one another's eyes here's all kinds of wishes wishes that a special letter is starting loverward this very night for fortune that will suddenly, in good humor, twist your destiny so that you may be where she is and she where you may be; for a private wire to girdle around the world a lover's line with gold-dusty headed Danny for Central to fire every other folk off. Oh, all good, good wishes. For when there are two lovers and the two of them make one, and the One is divided into Two and one half's on one coast and the other half is on the other nothing's right!

Feb. 6. pugilistic trial and tribulations of one. Jess Willard of Kansas form an inter esting: study. Once in bis callow days as a ringman, when nis star ox nope beamed brightly, he got better of Luther McCartv in a bout back east. Now if McCarty had been outbozed by a few others and had frizzled out as so many white hopes, have done, no one would have remembered t-iat Willard contributed In the humbling of friend Luther. Willard is rierht back where he was a year ago when the ambition to get a crack at the title was strong In him. He is better off in fact. There was no assurance that he would get a match with Luther McCarty, whereas the meeting with Gunboat Smith is defi nitely arranged. Under the circumstances it is not for Jess Willard to rail at fate. He has been buffeted a bit, but the storm of adverse circumstances has blown j by and has left him planted squarely on his feet. The momentous question, however, is, will Jess Willard be able to em brace the opportunity that is knock ing at his door? In other words, will the affair with Gunboat place him on a pedestal or toss him back to floun der again in the slough of despond If you listen to Manager Tom Jones, the bald pated gentleman who halls from Kankakee, it's all over, barring the signing of theatrical contracts for a grand tour of the world. "Did you notice we are giving Smith and Buckley all the money?" Jones asked. Well, whether you did or not, we are doing it. But what's un aiuerenve Aiicr hub 1111115 over Jess won't need for money. He will be the boss heavyweight of the world and the theatrical agents will be lying in wait for him and handing him chunks of wealth." Shows Some Improvement. qul Without wishing to appear too in- haxA this foretaste of a tidal wave of success for Mr. Willard?" was a ques- 1 tion put by the writer. "On the vast improvement in Wil-1 lard's rlngmanship," said Jones. "Mind you, he did not have to improve to oeai r.rnihn.1. He beat him the last time. 1 Gunboat He beat him the last time, but was the victim of as wrongful a de cision as was ever delivered. But let that 'go. Next time the referee will have so little to do that he will simply be 'amongst those present.' Yes, sir, Willard has improved to such an ex tent that those who saw him fight be fore will scarcely realize that it is the same man." "Are you allowing nothing for im provement in Gunboat?" "Not a great deal," said Tom, with the suspicion of a sneer. "There are fighters who never Improve and Gun boat is one of them. He's only a botch. All he has is that haymaker and it's only the fellows who are scared of it that get in the way of it They tell me he missed Pelkey a hundred times and might have kept on missing him only that Pelkey was tired and dis couraged and did not care what hap pened." Morris Hugged Him. "Why didn't Willard show some of this wonderful improvement when he boxed Carl Morris?" Jones was asked. "Because Morris wouldn't let him," was the quick rejoinder. When seeing that his reply caused a smile, Jones hastened to explain more fully. "What I mean is that Morris would not fights' he said. "He is a giant and Just grabbed and held. It takes two to make a bout, vou know." At first blush it might appear that Jones is simply displaying the enthusi asm that should always be on tap witn men of his calling. But he achieved this much. He has caused a lot of sports to promise themselves that they will watch Willard very closely when he be gins training In order to decide whether the charges of "vast improvement" have any foundation in fact Cincinnati Catcher Signs.
