Denies Permanent Injunction In Federal-Kllllfer Case. FRED CLf.XE INTERVIEWED "Players and Magnates Will Pay In End," He Says. NeTer Was Good, bnt Held Men on Their Morals. Grand Rapids. Mich., April 10. Judge Clarence W. Sessions, In the tin i ted states district court today, de nied the application of the Chicago Federal League club for an injunction, enjoining Catcher William Killifer, jr., from playing with the Philadelphia National League club. The judge denied the application on the ground that the Chicago Federal League club did not come into court "with clean hands, The decision also holds the reserve clause is not valid The decision holds that the contract of January 8, 1914, by which Killifer agreed to play with the Chicago Fed eral League club and the contract of January 20, which he made upon jumping back to the Philadelphia Na tional League club, are "in form valid and binding upon the parties thereto. Roasts Killifer. TCllllfer is scored for making the contracts, the decision reading: "This record shows that the defend ant, Killifer, is a baseball player of unique, exceptional and extraordinary skill and expertness. Unfortunately the record also shows that he is a per son upon whose pledged word little or no reliance can be placea ana who, for gain to himself, neither scruples nor hesitates to disregard ana w his express engagements ana After conceding the validity of the trn 1914 contracts, the decision goes "The questions here presented and requiring consideration i... 7. em,.,. ira the Drovisions of 1913 contract between the defendants, relative to the reservation of the play er for the succeeding season, valid and enforceable? 'Second Are the plaintiffs by their own conduct barrea irom -lief in a court of equity? Authorities Generally Agree. "The leading authorities with pos sibly one exception are agreed that executory contracts of this nature can neither be enforced in equity nor from The basis of an action at law to recov er damages from their breach. The masons for the decision a" that such contracts are lacking In the neces sary qualities of definlteness, certainty and mutuality. "The 1913 contract between these j.f.n,if.nt relative to the reservation of the defendant, Killifer, for the sea son of 1914, is lacmng in essential elements. It is wholly un certain and Indefinite with respect to salary and also with respect to terms and conditions oi me ployment. "It Is nothing more than a contract to enter Into a contract In the future, If the parties can then agree to con tract. Although it is founded upon sufficient consideration "lacks mu tuality because the Philadelphia club may terminate it upon ten days' notice while the other party has no such option and is bound during the entire contract period. A contract exists but, if broken by either party, the other is remediless because the courts are helpless either to enforce its performance or to award damages for its breach. "The principle embodied In the maxim 'he who comes into equity with clean hands' is a car' dinal one, lying at the foundation of equity Jurisprudence. rne principle thus broadly enunciated Is peculiarly appropriate and applicable to cases like the present one where relief will not be granted as a maatter of strict right but must result from the exer case of a sound Judicial discretion." Opens Way for a Fight. St. Louis, April 10. "The decision of the federal court, declaring in valid the reserve clause, knocks out the whole contract of organized base ball." said E. A. Steininger, president of the St. Louis Federal League team, today. "Without having the full decision before me, I cannot say off hand what will be the effect of the ruling against the Chicago Federals, which at the same time invalidates the reserve clause, but the invalidation of that clause opens the way for us to fight. "We do not intend to interfere with the agreements that players may have with the clubs of organized baseball unless the organized teams come to us. Then we will meet them with can non right on the firing line." There Is a Later Clause. Cincinnati. April 10. Chairman Aug ust Herrmann, of the National baseball commission when Informed that the re serve clause had been declared not valid, at Grand Rapids, Bald: "Judge Sessions' ruling is based on the old reserve clause which was in Killifer's contract. The old reserve clause has been revised and the one that Is now included in contracts is vastly different from the one in ques tion in Grand Rapids. The old reserve clause was indefinite in a number of respects while the one now in use is definite in every respect. I cannot com ment on the case further until I have a a opportunity of knowing Just what the decision is in Its entirety." Fred Clarke Interviewed. Fred Clarke, manager of the Pitts burg club, who is In Topeka today, when shown the Associated Press dis patch which knocks out the reserve Hause, was not a bit surprised. In fact he claimed that the reserve clause never was thought to be valid In a tourt of civil law but was honored by the baseball fraternity for the good of the game and from a moral standpoint, u c'a"ke said:, "We never did think reserve clause would stand the test WOMEN GIVE SENSATIONAL STORIES" I IN CHURCH TRIAL OF AUTHOR-DIVINE Dr. Price and Mrs. Oore, snapped at the triaL S?n?ti?, 8y gfinst the Rev. Dr. Embury Price, pastor of v Washington Heights Methodist Episcopal church in New York, was brousrht forth mi his trial before a committee of fifteen clergymen of the New York conference. Various women charged that he had kissed them and made improper suggestions. Mrs. Claude Dore, whom Dr. Price is charged with having kissed twice on a visit to her apartment, told also of receiving a threatening anonymous letter. Dr. Price is the author of Manhood and the Republic," "The Book Divine" and "Epworth League of the courts. Very few people ever thought it would but the baseball play ers and magnates resDected It for the sooa or tne tame and from a. mnral standpoint. "The reserve clause la renonnihlt ror tne nlga position maintained hv baseball today and without It some thing will have to be done to hold some of the'players, although It would not oe necessary to the majority. The average baseball player has too much character to be influenced by this de cision. Players and magnates are not what they used to be. The men in baseball now have as much character and intelligence as the same number of people in any other line of busi ness. Character is one of the things that has brought baseball to such a high plane and this court decision may affect some players, but organized baseball in general will not suffer greatly. "The magnates and players in gen eral will be the persons who will pay the penalty of this in the end. The noise being made by the Federals will not arouse sufficient Interest to in crease the total attendance enough to remunerate them for the damage that will result. The people demand good sport. They pay their money to witness the contest, but the owners must have the money to par the Dlav ers and pay other expenses or the club wilt not go. Such men as Barney Dreyfus, own er of our club, and all the men who have large sums invested in baseball realized tne xorce oi the reserve clause long ago and have relied on the moral character of the man and the fairness of the public from year to year. iney nave not been disap pointed except by a few and these people are responsible for the Federal League. "The Federal League promoters may get their money back with small income off the investment but I doubt it. I can't see any chance for them. They have not grabbed more than. a dozen stars from organ ized baseball. Some are touted rath er high but the majority can not keep up their pace for more than one or two years. The others are youngsters. Some may develop into star players but the per cent, of players who do develop is small and they will not get any more of these than the teams in organized company. In the end it will be the player wno win suiter so l think any man with ability will fare better in or ganized ranks. The Pittsburg club lost two men, Mike Simon, a catcher. and Pitcher Claude Hendrix, and the Federal League Is welcome to both of them." IIIGGIIIS CONFESSES.

Hodges, Mrs. Luella West' of Wichita today filed suit in the district court in which she seeks to recover S2.310 damages from the governor. Thp suit follows the sensational charges of Wednesday of this week when Mrs. Luella West and Mrs. Laura Buck waiter of Wichita declared that Gov ernor Hodges had swrenched Mm West's wrist and arm, struck her on tne Dreast with his flat, shook his fist at her and addressed her in insulting iei inn wnen sne sougnt. to carry from the governor's office nanera in the Arthur Sullivan parole case. .None of the details of .the aleged encounter axe 'set forth in the peti tion. It merely charges that the s-ov- ernoe "without caw .sv Justification, did wantonly, wilfully, and malicious ly assault, strike, beat and bruise this plaintiff; and did-violent! w null, ierlc. wrench and- twist the right arm, hand, wrist and shoulder of this plaintiff and did strike this Dlaintiff nnnn her shoulder with his fist."

There are 4,000 lots In- the district. In other words It will cost $6 a lot to the pro perty owners who have ten years to pay the assessment. Reducing It to the annual tax receipt, it will cost a man about 90 cents per lot a year. One district comprises 1.667 lots! This Is the new west side territory where a tax will be inflicted for an outlet to the river under any circumstances and where' co-operation, with tho district will cost them nearly $1,000 less than If they built a IS Inch Independ ent outlet. Another section of the new general district Includes a territory of 1.907 lots (district No. 26) where the city will pay the assessment of the property owners owing to the Ritchie over charge of recent court decision. The only district to be really taxed Is No. 32 and No. 33 com; rising 426 lots. Here the property owners have been let off easy on outlet' cost "It is a most fortunate set of circum stances," Commissioner Tandy said this afternoon. "It will cost the new dis trict a little less than under their or iginal plans. The old district Is get ting oft easy because the old outlet was about to be condemned. The nm- perty owners in the old district have the advantage of the new territory aid ing them in the construction. I con sider this a most, economical move. The cost .to the average property own- er hardly will be noticed in the an nual tax assessments.. Building this sewer outlet in this manner is meeting a necessity with comparatively little cost."

"They have helped you and me in the past and we need them to shoulder this work," Miss Jvllne declared. Mrs. A. H. Horton pleaded for har many. She was the first president of the club. "This is the first time dissension has ever arisen," said Mrs. Horton, "Let's be calm and think this over. Besides it is illegal to put this amend ment to a vote today." Chair Recognized Mrs. Monroe. Mrs. Wright was on her feet again. The chair recognized Mrs. Monroe. "I object," persisted Mrs. Wright. "Mrs. Monroe is recognized. You have spoken once," said Mrs. McFar land. "I rise to a point of order," insisted Mrs. Wright. Mrs. Monroe was proceeding with her speech. "Sit down," said Mrs. McFarland. Mrs. Wright Would Not Sit Down. "I won't sit down," retorted Mrs, Wright. "I don't have to." Mrs. Wright walked to the front of the hall. She was glaring at Mrs. Monroe and at the same time demand ing her rights. Both women were talk' ing and the president was making a most fruitless eiiort to preserve order, Finally Mrs. Monroe stopped. "Let her talk," she said. Mrs. Wright talked. "Don't you throw any personalities at me," she said as she turned on Mrs. Monroe, leader of the executive board defenders. "Remember, haven't mentioned any name in what I have said and don't you throw any personalities. I have a right to be lieve that Topeka women can pay their SO cents and come here and say what they want to." "Anyone can say anything they want to and not pay anything," in terposed President McFarland. Score Black Ball Methods. "Well, I don't want trouble," con tinued Mrs. Wright, "but if this club is to be democratic in fact as well as in theory, we must abandon our present method of blackballing- peo ple who apply for membership." All the time Mrs. Monroe had been awaiting her turn to speak. "The open vote is not right." said Mrs. Monroe in her most soft and soothing tones. "Presentation of names and voting them down on the floor is not right. Now our board is a little family all by itself and the things it says or does are not repeat ed and a good many unpleasant things are thus withheld. Our club doesn't 5c Handkerchiefs .2c 15c Hose ..6c 25c Neckties 13c 50c Belts 25c 15c Linen Collars. 5c 25c Rubber Collars .10c $1.00 Finest Dress Shirts, all latest patterns, only... 50c $1.00 Dress Caps 50c Children's Overalls 25c Men's Overalls 45c Boys' Shoes 98c, $1.25 and $1.48 a pair. Cash to Outof-Town Buyers try to cover the city. It only tries to cover a smaU portion among certain classes." j Mrs. Monroe then urged that the Doster substitute was not germaine to the original amendment and under the rules must "lie over 30 days for con sideration. As Mrs. Monroe retired, Mrs. V. F. Roby was on her feet to carry on the fight for the Doster-Wright forces. Clique or Club? "Certainly women have a right to form clubs, and to limit their mem bership to only such women as are so cially congenial," retorted Mrs. Roby in reply to Mrs. Monroe. "But if we have that kind of a club, why not say that our club represents only a clique or faction or set of the women of the city? Have we the right then to tell the mayor and the newspapers that we are representatives of all classes of the city?" .Mrs. McFarland started to explain. Why Not Live Up to Name? "I have the floor," replied Mrs. Roby, "and I will finish my speech. Our name is Good Government. Then, why bar the door against some certain person or certain class of people? If we object to sitting here for a few hours with women of possible inferior social posi tion, then something must have been wrong with our old system and needs changing." That speech did no add to the harmony of the situation. Mrs. Wright started to talk. Mrs. Wright had another point of uruer. Mrs. Aionroe sat down. Mrs. B. B. Smythe urged that the motion be car ried over to the next meeting. Then Mrs. Wright sprung a surprise. She consented. 'A New Storm. But suddenly out of the unexpected. uuicv omb a new storm. 1 sirs, wrignt and Mrs. Doster Insisted that the Doster suDstitute. since it was accepted by Mrs. Wright, took precedent over the Wright amendment and at once subject to con sideration. The chair called on Mrs. Mon roe for parliamentary advice. A half dozen women volunteered opinions. Mrs. Monroe said the Wrijrht amendment must voted out of tne way, either passed or be voted out of the way, either passed or up at a subsequent meeting. That was the ruling of the chair. There were mut terings of objections. Finish Fight Vet to Come. The Doster-Wright forces and the friends of the executive board passed in structions to their followers. By defeat ing the Wright amendment, the club will next month have a chance at the Doster su0stitut which throws all membership nominations on the floor of the club and curtails the authority of the board. So the insurgents joined the administration forces and the Wright amendment went to the scrap heap by the score of 32 to 9. And now plans are being laid for the May meeting which promises the big bat tle for control of the club leadership. Passage of the Doster substitute means Mrs. Lila Day Monroe and her following step down and out in the active manage ment of the affairs of the club; and the final round of battle will decide whether the Topeka woman can continue the lead ership of the club.

"Little Miss Mix-up," a spicy cabaret tabloid, is being presented at the Nov elty theater, Thursday, Friday and Sat urday of this week. There is no plot in the show, but there is plenty of singing and dancing. And one of the men in the company, James H.

Robinson, clerk in charge of the North Topeka postoffice, at noon Thursday F. L. La caff, representative for the rctofflcw department, will be in North Topeka. nextTUesday to se lect the site for the-haif federal build ing. The appropriation of $70,000 was made for the. building about a. year ago. K'-t Thirteen sites were-- submitted for the location of the building Just after the appropriation was made and there is no one in North Topeka. who-: has any Idea of just which one will be chosen. v" However, a number:? of business men and residents seems to favor the site which is located at the- corner of North Kansas avenue and West Gordon street.. This place is now oc cupied by the Adams grocery store. While it is not in the center of the business district it is, perhaps, one of the best all-round sites which has been offered. It is situated at the in tersection of the four principal streets leading into the business section of North Topeka. The streets receive the traffic from the upper and lower Silver Lake roads. Central avenue road, Rochester road, Kansas avenue road and the Grantville road. Charles F. Bridge, Oldtimer. There was only one road leading into North Topeka when C. F. Bridge came here in the year of 1S69. The postoffice was in a log cabin located where the Snediker mercantile build ing now stands. This log cabin prob ably cost less than a hundred dollars. Mr. Bridge will remember this and it will undoubtedly be quite a contrast to the new seventy thousand dollar building which will be erected in North Topeka in the near future. Before he went into the real estate business in North Topeka in 1S79, Mr. Bridge worked at many things. In this year he established a real estate office in North Topeka on Kan sas avenue, near the Union Pacfiic railroad tracks. Sixteen years ago he moved his office to its present location at the intersection of Central and Kansas avenues. He is one of the North side's oldest real estate dealers and is well known. He is one of the many men who have put their faith in North Topeka- and made their fortune. To Defend Himself. The Rev. W. Garnet Handley, pastor of the North Topeka Baptist church, has anonunced that on Sunday night at 8 o'clock his subject will be, "Some plain statements in reference to the Topeka white slave case and the not guilty verdict. Mr. Handley was one of the leading witnesses in this case and his sermon will arouse no little interest. He will extend an invitation to the twelve jurymen and the defending attorney in the case to attend the services. Work Is Delayed.

Evidence" seems to accumulate daily to demonstrate that Mexico will be In as bad a plight, if not a worse one. when Villa takes his place in the chair now occupied by Huerta. 'Happy Jack" Reardon, a New York alderman, becomes more or less dis tinguished for having pronounced the words that married a distant relative of Napoleon I to a divorcee. Isn't It about time for one or more of the real patriots in northern Mex ico to start a revolution against Villa and Carranza"? The forbearance they have shown in this respect is decidedly vn-Mexican. All of the get-rich-quick artists must hang their heads in shame when they contemplate the operations of Villa. -A bank that refuses to honor his draft is 'promptly confiscated b'y him in its entirety. With the generosity for which it is becoming famous. the Rockefeller foundation has given' $750,000 to Wei lesley college with the proviso that the institution raise $2,000,000 within the next eight months. President Wilson's approval of the action of the federal reserve board in 'the selection 'of locations for regional banks will 'probably make him as un popular in New Orleans as President Taft became there when he let it be known that San Francisco was his choice for the location, of Je Panama exposition. Nor is it much of a distinction for the Chicago policewomen becaui tney can shoot straigbter with a re volver than do the male members of the force. The average policeman handles a revolver with about the same abandon that a Chinaman does, as many innocent bystanders could tes tify were they alive. Armageddon and Its warriors evi dently haven't much attraction for the women voters. At the recent Chicago election they were able to marshal only 20,000 strong, a poor third to those who lined up with the Demo crats and the Republicans. Of the lat ter there were 51,000, while the Demo. crats led with 55,0011 women voters. Just why the -senate canals commit tee should deem it necessary to give 16t days of public hearing oh the bill to repeal the Panama canal tolls ex emption, unless it be for the sole pur poses of delay, is not easily understood. If there is one question, that has been debated pro and con from every possi ble angle. It is this -one. AU of iU merits or demerits as they relate to every possible. Interest involved have already been presente and .discussed la the mmutest detail. CIVIC EDUCATION. The arousing of a state-wide civlo consciousness and civic Interest among young and old- by means of discussion of live questions .of local concern in the school house and at -the country crossroads, la the undertaking of the University of North Carolina, accord ing to a bulletin from the pen of Arthur W. Dunn, that haa Just been issued by the United States bureau of education. The university stands -on the doctrine of Wendell Phillips that "agitation is education.- Agitation is marshalling the conscience of a nation to mold its laws." With a record of emphasis upon debate from its founding in 1795, the university- has gone about it to sys tematise and universalize discussion of every conceivable question of vital local interest, not only by the youth of the state in the high schools, but by adult organisations of farmers, of women, or of any other available group. For some years graduates of the untversity have established debating clubs in the schools where they have gone to teach, members of the faculty have answered communications, and. materials have, been sent to all parts of the state from the university li brary and the state library commis sion. Recently a high school debating union was organized, including more than one hundred schools, to conduct state-wide debating contests. As a part of its extensive plans in this direction, the extension- bureau of the university has Just issued a man ual on public discussion and debate "to stimulate' discussion of public questions chiefly by high school stu dents, but also by community clubs and public organizations." This man ual suggests a large number of ques tions of Immediate interest in North Carolina. A considerable number of the questions are analysed, arguments pro and con "being given. References are given to easily available material, much of which may be obtained by application. to. the University, to the library commission, or to public of flees. In addition to this. Instructions are given as to how to organize for such discussions and how to conduct them. While some of the questions sug gested for discussion are of national significance, the chief value of the work of the university lies In the way it focuses attention upon real prob lems of immediate local concern. For example, it is Resolved, that county should provide a medical in spector of schools; that all county of ficers in county should be nominated through a legalized direct primary; that the stockman is a worse enemy to the forests of North Carolina than the lumberman; that the town of should establish a tax sup ported library; that it is expedient for county to increase the salaries of its public school teachers at least 25 per. cent; that the farmers of should form a co-operative marketing association. These are only illustrative of a wide range of subjects. The manual points out that "public dfscussion in North Carolina during the past decade has undergone a most desirable change. Emphasis hitherto placed largely on things political and national, is being placed on questions affecting the everyday life of North Carolina. To make this change even more far-reaching, every North Caro lina community should resolve itself into a' community club and devote Itself-seriously to the quiet, persistent study of its economic, social, educa tional and religious problems. "The plan of organization and the method of procedure in such clubs should be simpler than that of the school societies. Theia object should be open, frank, earnest discussion. The I building up of a strong, constructive, community spirit, ana community in terest should be a second object. Out of such discussions, characterized by such a spirit, will inevitably come the solution of problems upon which the welafre of the community absolutely depends. "If a place, of meeting is the only obstacle in the way of the formation of such a club, the local school house can well be used for this purpose. It ought to be widely used and made the real social center of the community." THE IiACK OF SMILES. Personal impressions are always in teresting, writes Joe Mitchell Chaffee, in the National Magazine, and I find myself unconsciously asking foreigners the oft-repeated question: "What, is the thing that impresses you most?" A returned traveler who had been ab sent from America for many, years, was relating some entertaining incidents concerning his life In South America. It was all very. Interesting,. but his group of auditors, almost' in a chorus, de manded: "What impressed you most on your return to America after eight years?. What do you find different among the people?" His face sobered a minute, and he said, "I'll teU you. It is the lack of smiles. It seems to me that there are fewer smiling people than when I went away. They don't seem to have the art of smiling, since the use of the telephone came into effect and the rush ing about on street railways and sub ways and looking aloft for the flight of airships. I went away with the im pression, that the American knew how to smile Now you only cackle." This remark set the little group of friends to thinking and looking for causes. Have these years of unexam pled prosperity so absorbed -the con scious and unconscious thought of the people that they have forgotten how to smile? "The eyes do not have the twinkle."-continued the speaker, "that they had In other days. They greet you with a hard, lack-lustre look. Even your friends ask you, before you have hardly exchanged greetings,' as to how much you have -made, showing the hard-fisted commercial tendencies of the times. The Joy and zest of Just do ing things does not seem to have come with the .shortened hours of labor. The UsUessness. of bis, strong men doing work that does not require either pays! cat or mental activities is evaporating a lot" of the initUthro fores of the country."

It's -a wise mind that' knows its own motive. J How often we sincerely believe that we are actuated by some most com mendable consideration, while all the time in the background of our minds. lurking behind our dense Ignorance of ourselves, skulks some far less worthy motive. Occasionally something brings this real motive out from its hiding place, and then we are as surprised as the veriest stranger. Once upon a time I planned to take a little breathing spell -in tne coun try. A friend who was in great need of a rest was to accompany me and we were to meet two other old friends at the little .inn to which we were to escape. I had been anxious about this particular friend for some time, and I had been instrumental ffp persuading her to take inis reaa. Therefore when circumstances arose at my home which made it difficult for me to be spared, I was greatly troubled. You see I knew that my friend would not go without me and r fait she oueht to ko. "Of course If it were only myself I had to consider, I shouldn't hesitate a moment," I assured myself, rbut I can't bear to see her give it up." And actuated as I sincerely believed, chief ly by this motive, I made up -my mind, to go. The 'day before we were to start, my friend telephoned me that the sudden death of a dear aunt had made it- imperative that she should give up the trip after all. Of course my first feeling was sorrow for her. but close, oh 'so close, upon its heels came another feeling, a strong .dis inclination to give up the trip for my self. And much to my own sincere surprise I found that I was almost as anxious to go as ever, and that the selfish part of me was already marshallns; new arguments why should go, such as that I needed the rest and would be of more service at home if I took it- Did I go? Don't ask me that. If I say "No" I shall, be claiming- too much merit. If I say "Yes" I shall be confessing too- much selfishness. The point I wanted to bring out was that all the time I had been de ceiving myself about my own motive. I have chattered .at such length about myself because I wanted to il lustrate the tendency of seir decep tion, and I know what goes on in my own mind better than I can know about any one else. Of course I may be wrong in think ing this is typical, but I have often been astonished to hear people ascrib ing the most unlikely motives to their own actions and intentions, and I cannot help thinking a similar self deception is going on within their minds.

A large corporation In Pennsylvania has announced a raise of 10 per cent in wages to all employees who take the pledge to abstain from the use of intoxicating Hquors. The corpora tion has found that sobriety fa worth a great deal in 'business. It has found that sober employees are worth at least 10 per cent more than those employees who drink. This Is a ter rible indictment against the liquor traffic. It is an indictment drawn from cold business calculation, sep arate and apart from all sentiment or emotion, and in soma degree tells what a' handicap the drinker must carry in the :race with the non-drinker. This is, indeed, one of the strongest and most. effective temperance lectures that has ever been delivered, for there can be no purpose behind it other than to benefit the employer by Improving the efficiency of the em ployee by Inducing him to be sober an abstainer, a teetotaler. The an nouncement has been made that near ly all the employees of the Pennsyl vania concern have availed themselves of the opportunity afforded them in getting more pay for their service by gladly signing the pledge. This ex periment is being watched by other large corporations throughout the country, and it is possible, if the test proves to be worth the cost, there will be many such offers for sobriety in the industrial and commercial, world. There has long been a ban on drunk enness in the railroad service. Some of the railroads-refuse to employ those who are known to drink. The time has been ta the past when drink ing was admissible in all lines of business. Tha habit 'watered into the work of soliciting for business. in the entertainment of -customers, but now the sober man is the one every busi ness seeks to employ. There is now no place for the drunkard even the saloon is closed against the drunken barkeeper. It seems that the day Is approaching when there will bo no Job for the drinker. The era of Inebriety Is passing, and with its gotna- dawns the day of temperance and sobriety. Nashville Tenuesseean. N THE LIFE WE LEAD. Among the amendments proposed by the senate committee which has Just reported favorably the Burnett immi gration bill, is one which would ex clude from the right of entrance into this country "persons of constitutional or psychopathic inferiority." This amendment, .a dispatch from Washing ton Informs us, was urged by the pub lic health service as a means of ex cluding from the country those liable to insanity under stress of American life. This Is an interesting sidelight. It is somewhat of a shock to be In formed by experts that the sort of life we lead ta America is apt to be fatal to the sanity of a considerable number of persons who come to this country from Other lands.- The fact that such an amendment as the one referred to above has been considered necessary by the public health service for the reason 'given impresses very vividly upon us the -reality of that "stress of American life" which we-ourselves ac cept as-a -matter of course, but which has- so often astonished observant visi tors fromraor leisurely countries.

Spring's Here, Fellovs! Ha! Ha! Overcoats Coming Off! Can't Hide the Shabby Suit Now! But Don't Think of Paying $25 or $30 for a New One. Take it from your Uncle Dud, (and I know something about duds. too). When you pay $25 or 130 for a suit of Spring Clothes, you're playing a good joke on yourselves. It's nonsense.

Pitcher McCoIlsaacti, JWtibc i of Laxt Year's Staff, Who M aiaowins of Six hundred shivering fans saw the Kaws make their initial appearance on the local, diamond with the Pitts burg Pirates as opponents Thursday afternoon. The pirates pounded the Kaw pitchers for twelve safe hits,, ana aided hy a number of tickets for free transportation they scored six runs and held the Kaws to one. The' atmosphere was not conducive to baseball, from a nlayer s or spec tator's standoolnt. The fans, tn the grandstand, and at" least one! score keeper shivered from the first inning until Fullerton ended the game In the ninth by faninir Hans Wagner, the flying Dutchman. Of course the fans did not expect to see a real contest but were willing to spend the money for a chance to ree the ceieoraiea Fred Clarke and his Pirates in ae The Kaws Wise drew their share of attention. This was the boys' nrst chance to look them over and they took advantage of the occasion. There are many strange faces on the team and of course the fans were anxious to learn the first and last name of each individual. They had learned the names by reading the various lipe of radiator and training trip dope that has, been printed from time to time and they wanted to see the man and connect him with the right name. Of course they were in terested In the old Dlayers and want ed to look them over so as to satisfy themselves as to the prospects of a first division club for Topeka this summer. Pittsburg Scored Three In First. Pepper Clarke started the game for the locals by walking Max Carey. Joe Kelly, with St. Joe last year, went to m-st on a Texas leaguer to center. Mike Mowry singled to right and the bases were loaded. Hans Wagner shouldered the bludgeon and walk ed toward the plate. The fans ap plauded and Hans drew free trans portation, allowing Carey to score. Konetchy, formerly of St. Louis, was out on a sacrifice fly to Riggs in cen ter, and Joe Kelly scored. McCarthy was thrown out irom Mcuee to Koerner and Mowry scored. Total, three runs, two hits. Cochran led off with a single to right center. Dowd drew a pass, Forsythe was hit by a pitched ball and the bases were sagging. Koerner drew a pass and (Cochran scored. Riggs fannedi and Tallion flew out to Mitchell. Scoret .one run, one hit. That was all -tho counting for the Kaws. Dowd beat out an infield hit to deep short field. The hit was far back and Hans Wagner did not have time to straighten so he made a bad throw to first. Rapps hit to right center for two bases in the ninth in ning and that was the total of bingles for the Kaws. Mitchell Jilt Home Run. The Pirates seturned in the fourth inning for another run when Mitchell hit the balj. over "ie left field fence. He was the first man at bat in this in ning. The visitors shoved another across in the sixth inning when with one out, Gibson singled, Jas. Kelly, bat ting for Kanthler. forced Gibson at second, stole second and scored when Carey drove the ball through Dowd a legs. They annexed the last run in the ninth inning when Joe Kelly drew a pass, stole second and scored on Mowry's double to right center. The Kaws performed to the satisfac tion of the crowd and did as well as we expected. Information from the training camp has been sufficient to give one an opportunity to form an opinion of the speed and ability of the various players and every one of them fulfilled these advance cotices, in our opinion. George Cochran was the only man on the club who- ventured to attempt a steal and got away with it. The work of Dowd at second and McGee at short appeared to please everybody. Even the correspondents of the Pittsburg papers, who are. traveling with the Pi rates commented on this performance of this pair of newcomers. In the out field, the Kaws appeared slow in get ting fly balls. Lou McAllister performed aa usual and so did BMURapps. Rapps made' his debut on the To peka gorunds as a member of the Topeka club and worked like an old timer. Rapps caught his first game in nine years while on the training trip j and with what 'little experience he has had-this year he. did well. The pitchers, Clarke, Higginbotham 1 and Fullerton, worked as well as ex- pected. Neither hurried and shoved j the ball with much speed. They would t not run the risk of injuring their arms. Fullerton appears to have im proved the style of his delivery which might make him a more effective pitcher and nothing but time and acid test will reveal facts. In defense the club showed well but in offensive it was weak. The Pirate recruit pitcher was as wild as the winds but the Kaws .350 hitters in the Appalachian league could not even make a sacrifice, hit. Cochran alone landed squarely on the ball and Cochran alone showed any life on the bases. The Pirates trtay again today and Minneapolis Saturday and Sunday. 1 The score: PITTSBURG. Players AB. R. H.

There is a strict ordinance assessing a heavy fine and penalty to the person who falls to keep his sidewalks clear in front of his residence. On Mulvane street in Elmhurst there is a sidewalk completely blocked in wet weather on account of a few terraces which are ur.cared for. The city believes the pro perty owners are to blame. The general officials of the Rock Is land, out of the city on an inspection trip of the lines in the second district, will return to Topeka tomorrow. They decided not to spend Easter Sunday on the road, although it interfered with their plans and arrangements to operate the train back to this city. Even a railroad sometimes has a heart and a soul.

Miss Rosebud English the Georgia woman wbo married A. D. Oliver soma years ago, then deserted him and without getting a divorce mar ried a man named James when she thought Oliver had another wife, says she won't marry Oliver again, now that it appears that he was never married to anyone but her. She has secured a divorce from James, and the question arises, is she still the wife of Oliver? She was only fifteen years old when she married Oliver, who told her he was worth $5,000,000. He was a poor man. 0 Corn-less Joy! "GETS-U" for Corns Nothing in the World Can Beat It for Corns and Callouses. Now try the different way. the new way, the absolutely sure way, the painless way of getting rid of those corns that have pestered the life and tention of taking the trip which will extend over a period of three days. Many a man chased his hat on Kan sas avenue today. The heavy south west wind was blowing dust along the street, and this "real estate" at times was almost blinding. At 9:50 o'clock the wind velocity was 34 miles. The streets are not in as clean a condition as is sometimes the case. The sprink ling of Kansas avenue on a day like tnis wouia not ber a bad idea.

Following the loss of Earl Hamilton to the Federal League yesterday and the announce ment of Clem Clemons that he would take an early train to Chicago today, where it is feared he, too, will join the new league, the. local American League baseball club last night be gan building intrenchments to pro tect itself from further onslaughts by the Federal League. The first and strongest defense the Browns' president has thrown about his players, it became known today, was the elimination of the ten-day release notice, from all 1914 contracts. This clause had given the club right to drop any player upon ten days' no tice. With it in his contract, no play er felt that his berth was safe at any time. The Federal League in its fight to retain Hamilton, it is believed here. will argue the' lack of mutuality in the ten-day release clause. I Mr. atr CnJ Ai C I VJ- AtLaat.

He waived that Derogative today, however, and consented to the trial of the case In Shawnee countv. As the charge made by Mrs. West is against Governor Hodges' action as nublic official, his defense will be con ducted by the attorney general's office. T. Is nrobahle that at least three mem. bers of General Dawson's force will participate in the trial of the case when it is called for hearing. Attorney Gen eral Dawson will himself participate in the defense and will probaoly De as slsted bv S. M. Hawkes and S. M firewater, assistants in the office. An immediate trial will probably be demanded by the defense. It is believed that the issues in the case can be l.iade up and the case brought to trial some tim in June, possioiy earner. The charges against the governor are hntuxt unon an alleged attack upon Mrs. West when she visited the governor's private office April 8. accompanied by Mrs. Buckwalter. The women had been in Tnrtfka. several days, urging the Darole of Arthur Sullivan, sent to prison from- Sedgwick county for assaulting a 16-year-old girl and subsequently at tacking her with' a Kmie. -aaemuers 01 the Wichita W. C. T. U. had opposed the erantine of a parole. During to stay of the women in to neUa thev induced Sam Seaton. par don and Darole clerk, to give them copies of certain letters and protests on file in the office, rne women wem before the governor with these docu ments. Governor Hodges refused to nermit the Daners to be taken from his office. It was then that Mrs. West seized the letters and the alleged as sault by the governor is claimed to have occurred. Governor Hodges denied the charges of the West woman.-Adjutant General Charles I. Martin and Z. G. Hopkins. state free employment agent, were in the office at the time. Both deny the charges of Mrs. West. They assert that the governor did not seize Mrs. West's wrist or wrench her arm strike her. Mrs. Buckwalter, who was with Mrs. West, tells about the same story as her friend in -regard to the affair in the governor a office.

Smith, at one time a Rock Island official in this city and in other parts of the state. He died in St. Catherine, Ont., where he made his home. Mr. Smith began his railway career with G. T. R. Co. as telegraph oper ator and ticket agent at Niagara Falls, Ont In 1892 he entered the service of the Chicago, Rock Island Pacific Railway company at- To peka, working as chief clerk and chief dispatcher, train master and superintendent, with headquarters at Topeka, Horton and Goodland, Kan., and Dal hart, Tex.

The Topeka Capital of today says: The Emporia Gazette takes notice that the tobacco business is following the fatal road of the whisky interest in its dealings with public sentiment. and the Gazette -gives its kindly and timely warning which It may or may not have the sense to accept. It is first rate business advice. The to bacco trust is following at present bad advice, bidding for business by inde cent advertising and ignoring the sen timent represented by anti-cigarette laws. The other day,' the Gazette says. the manufacturers of a tobacco sent half page advertisement to the Ga zette which was rejected advertis ing to give away stickpins containing bas-relief of the famous picture 'September Morn. The stickpins are crude, ugly and impossible, except as they excite hideous thoughts in the young and ignorant." This is another illustration of the To peka Capital's hypocrisy in saying one thing and doing another; of condemn ing premiums yet giving them away; of opposing cigarette advertising and at the same time carrying it. The above half page advertisement to which the Emporia Gazette refers, and which the Capital itself calls indecent, was offered to the State Journal and re jected just as the Gazette rejected it, but the Topeka Capital printed it in all of its hideousness, including three large pictures of the stick pin and the cigarette portion of the advertisement.

WHEN KIDNEYS START ACHING Take Sails to flush Kidneys If back hurts or Bladder bothers. When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means that you have been eating too much meat, says a well known authority. Meat forms uric acid ft liich overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and lc g ny. When your kidneys get sluggish tmd clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The .urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physi cian at once or get from your pharma cist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa ter before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with Iithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irri tates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot Injure and makes a delightful, efferves cent llthia-water drink.

Acid Stomachs Are Dangerous Common Sonse Advice by n IMwlln Kulslictl Specialist. "Acid" stomach are dangerous because rid irritates and inflames the delicate iinlns of the s tomaoh. tbus hindering and preventing the proper action of the Momach. and leading to probably nine tontlis of the cases of stomach trouble from which people suffer. Ordinary medicines and medicinal treatments are useless In such cases, for they leave tlve nuree fo the trouble, the acid in the Momach, as dangerous a3 ever. The acid must be neutralized, and Its formation prevented, and the best thing for the purpose is a teaspoonful of bisurateu magnesia, a simple antacid, taken In a little r.-arm or cold water after eating, which not only neutralizes the acid, but Blso prevents the fermentation from which Hcidity is developed. Foods which ordinarily cause greatest distress may be eaten with impunity if the meal is fol lowed with a litle bisurated masnesia. which can be obtained from aiy druggist, and should always be kept handy.

Many Towns Ask for Milk Con densary To Locate Two. Lamed, Kan., April 10. For the first time in the history of this part of the state farmers are coming to appreciate the value of mixed farm ing and the dairy herd. The true value of the cow on the farm has been brought home to the big wheat men of this section through the re cent agitation In several western Kansas towns for a milk condensary. A few weeks ago advices were sent out that two condensary companies were thinking of establishing con densaries in western Kansas on" the plan of the condensary that has put Mulvane, Kan., on the map. Several commercial clubs immediately start ed a fight for one of the condensaries. Among the towns after the plum were Great Bend, Hoisington. Hutch inson, Scott City, Jetmore. Kingman, St. John and Larned. The success ful towns will be the ones inducing the farmers of their trade territory to agree to keep the most cows and for this reason commercial clubs in the various towns have been preach- ing to the farmers the value of cows. Several farmers in Reno, Barton and i Pawnee counties have become so en thused as to buy dairy herds despite the fact the condensary is not yet lo cated. Hundreds of farmers have been induced to keep a- few more cows than heretofore. JOHX P. ST. JOHX TO COAST. Mill Talk Prohibition to California People 81 Years Old. Olathe, Kan., April 10. John P.

Hail and wind storms, accompanied by a sharp dip in temperature last night, did many thou sand dollars damage to vegetables and citrus fruit crops throughout central Florida. Orange groves and melon and tomato fields suffered severely. South ern Florida, however, where the bulk of peninsula citrus fruits are produced, experienced only a cool rain. Frost in the state was confined to the north western section, where crops were not sufficiently matured to suffer material ly. The heaviest loss was in this section, which was swept by a storm of cyclonic proportions. Houses were unroofed, windows broken and several large or ange groves destroyed. The melon crop in this and adjoining counties, the cen ter of the. melon belt of Florida, is be lieved to be almost a total loss. HOWE AROUND HORN. Atchison Editor Will America.

Haddon Chambers, had written "The Tyranny. of Teas" especially for Mr.' Drew, he, could not have fitted him with a more felicitous role. Ernest Lawford will be seen in the part originated by Arthur. Byron; Laura Hope Crews, Mary Boland and Hubert Druce will have the auxiliary parts. Interest in Mr. Drew's present of fering will also focus upon Barrie's new play "The Will" which in three scenes epitomises the life tragedy of one man. The story is simple but tragic Barrie in this little satire on human vanity tells the story of the soul and heart of a man sapped in the money mill, and he tells it with all the grim, mordant power of a Balzac. Prominent in Mr. Drew's company this season is that admirable English character, Sidney Herbert. AT THE MOVIES. The writer of certain special theater notes has again offended the manage ment of the Iris picture house, this time by a criticism of "The Three Musketeers" film show there this week. The writer Is sorry. No of fense was meant. The criticism was for the stage manager of the film con cern that made the pictures, not for the Iris people.4 The pictures depart ed widely from 'the book. The criti cism pointed out that fact.. But it also stated plainly that the pictures were good, the scenes dramatic and excit ing. It also stated that they would please those who had not read the book closely and so often as to become attached to its characters. The Iris people secured the picture at the writer's request. It was not the original Musketeer film, but that was not the Iris' fault. They got the best 'and the only Musketeer picture they could. They did not misrepre sent it. The writer thought his criti cism of the picture Just and mild, but he is awful sorry that his good friends of the Iris management took the criticism as personal in any way. And the irony of it all is, that the Iris is the only picture show in town that he ever attends. He goes there for per- isonal as well as picture reasons. The Iris. It Is a-matter of pride among photo t play admirers to refer to the Iris as j "Topeka's foremost picture house," and the pride is justified. The Iris selects tne pearls, roaay ana tomor row Helen Gardner, the American fa vorite, in "Pieces of Silver" is the headline: feature, with Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Castle, tango artists, as an added attraction pastry as it were. -.v-r, The Efcnpreaa.
