VISIT TO HIS PRIVATE OFFICE The State Executive Appeared Cool and Deliberative. Ho Formality Connected With Woman's Entrance. THEIR BODIES DIBIT TOUCH Gorernor Said He Didn't Wrench Her Hand or Wrist. No Intention or Chance of Do ing Any Violence. It Is believed by attorneys on both Okies of the Hodges-West suit this afternoon that the ease will go to the Jury Saturday afternoon. Allowing time for rebuttal and arguments It is figured that another five hours of court work shouia compicwj ceedlngs. The defense rested at S o'clock this afternoon. The plaintiffs rebuttal testimony began immediately. All evi dence was completed this afternoon. t S-35 this afternon the plaintiff completed all rebuttal evidence and the attorneys went into consultation over plans for argument and the re ceiving of instructions. At 3:40 o'clock this afternoon Judge Iana excused the Jury until 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. It wm agreed upon In conference with attorneys that three hours would be given to each side for arguments. One half hour will be used for Instructions to the Jury. This means that the case will Ko to the Jury tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock Cool, deliberate and self possessed at all times, Governor Hodges todayJ told to a ;ury in Judge Dana a court the story of the visit of Mrs. Luella West and Mrs. Laura Buckwalter to his office April 8. the day Mrs. West alleges to have been attacked by the executive. The governor was on the witness stand a few minutes less than two hours. He gave a vivid portray al of the scene in his office when the two women called upon him and carried away copies of private cor respondence. He denied that he struck Mrs. West or that at any time his body came in contact with that of the plaintiff. For an hour and a quarter Otis Hungate of plaintiff's counsel tried to break down the governor's story. Several times the governor answered his questions by declaring, "I have answered that question." Closing his cross examination, Hungate asked the governor if he was not a fighting man. Then he asked regarding the en counter In the state treasurer's office in 1911 when Governor Hodges and Senator Ganse of Lyon county were members of the state senate. Gov ernor Hodges admitted that he struck Ganse with his open hand after Ganse had struck him as he -at in a chair during a committee meeting. Governor Drew a Laugh. The crowd In the court room and the Jurors laughed as the governor declared that the Ganse encounter was not a fight. Governor Hodges voluntarily told the Jury that he had knocked Ganse down with his op i hand. The encounter was one of the sensations of the 1911 legislative session. Reviewing the incidents in his office when Mrs. West and Mrs. Buckwaltei called upon him, the governor stated that he was not angry, although some of the remarks by Mrs. Buckwalter were Insulting. Answering questions by the lawyers. Governor Hodges walked to the counsel's table and demonstrated the relative positions of himself. Mrs. West and Mrs. Buckwalter. Both Mrs. West and himself were using both hands In holding the copies of the Dobbs ietters, the governor testified. As Mrs. West raised the letters from the table to about the waist line and stepped four or five feet from the table, the governor declared that he released his hold on 'he papers. Not once did the bodies of the two people touch or did his hand touch that of the plaintiff, was the governor's emphatic statement. Under cross-examination. Governor Hodges said there was no malice in his heart when Mrs. West took the papers. It would have been impossible to have committed any act of violence, since he did not touch the plaintiff, he said. Stories Were Alike. In almost every material detail, the governor's story of the alleged en counter dove-tailed the testimony of Adjutant General Charles I. Martin and Z. G. Hopkins, who told of the scene -as witnesses for the defense. The atories, however, are directly at issue and contradictory to those told by Mrs. West and her companion, Mrs. Buck waiter. As Governor Hodges sat In the wlt ness chair today, the Jurors leaned for ward in their chairs to catch every word of his testimony. Answering ques tions, the governor usually turned to ward the men in the Jury box and in slow, evenly modulated tones told his story. Only on one or two occasions when Hungate fired questions at the witness without apparently giving due time for answer, did Governor Hodges display feeling or raise his voice above the ordinary conversational tones. Answering Hungate's repeated interrogations. Governor Hodges de clared that he did not regard the par don files In his office as public prop erty and did not consider that the women had any right to copies of the Dobbs letters. Sea ton gave the women t r FRIDAY EVENING. Minima nf th lettAin without A.ntnmHtv or permission irom nis cnier, was the governor's statement. Before the court had rule i on the question of privileged communications of physicians called to examine Mrs. Luella West, Governor Hodges was called to uie witness stand today to ten irom nis own nps tne story of the visit to his private office of Mrs. west and Mrs. Buckwalter the morn ing of April 8. The governor anneared cool and deliberate in hia direct ex amination and his answers to questions were in siow, evenly modulated tones. At 9:45 Governor HodKes went to tne stand in his own behalf. 'State your name," said S. N. Hawkes. "George H. Hodges." "You are the governor?" "Yes, sir." "Do you have printed blanks for par dons?" "No, sir." "Any formalities V "No. We discourage applicants for pardon employing counsel." "Did you meet Mrs. West and Mrs. Buckwalter relative to a pardon?" "I did." "When?" "In April the 6th and 8th." "What was the occasion of their visit?" "They called for a pardon for Frank Sullivan, convicted of rape upon young German girl in Wichita." No Introduction. "Did anyone bring them in and In troduce them?" "No." "Who introduced them?" "They introduced themselves." "Who did the talking?" "Mrs. Buckwalter did most of the talking." "When was that?" "Monday, April 6." "What was said?" Called a Halt on Hodges. "Wanted to take the case up with me and to leave papers in the case. Told them not the province of an ex ecutive to retry cases, that after a man had been convicted by a Jury and sentenced by the Judge, we did not rehear cases unless some new found evidence. They were In my office half or three-quarters of an hour and we discussed the case from every angle. The case was so vicious Here the governor was interrupted by objection from plaintinrs counsel. Continuing, the governor said: "I asked If they were relatives of Sullivan and they said they were not. I asked who was paying their expenses. They said 'We are paying every cent of our expenses. Wanted New Evidence. "After a talk," continued the gov ernor, "the women said Then you won't interest yourself in this case? I said 'No, but if you have any new evi dence, will be glad to investigate it.' "Was Mr. Seaton in the office?" "No. I said to ladies, leave your papers here and Mr. Seaton will look them over and you can go home, as case will receive same attention as though you were here." "What said about attorney gen eral?" "Said he had sent a detective to Wichita to Investigate case?" "The morning of the 8th, did you see the ladies?" "Yes." "Who was In the office with you?" "Adjutant Ueneral Martin."' "Now state what was said and done." "I was telephoning. Completed conversation. Mrs. Buckwalter asked if had any blanks for pardon or pa role. Said had not. Asked me how to proceed. Told her to go tack and get recommendations from Judge, jurors and county attorney and will take case up. "What else?" "Mrs. Buckwalter took a letter from hand bag. Asked me if wrote it. Pointed to a portion. I asked where did you get that? She said Mr. Seaton gave them to us. I said he should not have done so. They are a part of the files and should not go out of the office." She Seized the Papers. "What else?" "Mrs. Buckwalter said: 'Mr. Seaton gave them to us and they are our copies.' I said it makes no difference. you have no right to them. Just then Mrs. West stepped up and seized the letters." "Did you have hold of them with both hands?" Thought Something Was Wrong. "Yes. She seized the letters and swung around. I held on for an in stant, felt something was wrong and I let loose my hold." Governor Illustrated It. Governor showed jury relative posi tions of himself and Mrs. West at time of alleged encounter and positions in which letters were held. He then identified the copies of letters taken from'his office by Mrs. West. "Did Mrs. West take anvthina- other than Dobbs letters from your desk?" "Yes. Copy of letter I had written to Senator Loring Trott." Did Not Strike Her. "Did you at any time strike Mrs. West?" "No, sir." "Wrench her wrist?" "No, sir." "Grasp her hand?" "Did not." "Did you raise her hand high above her head?" "Did not." "Did you get her hand behind, her?" "No, sir." "Did you reach your arm behind her?" "Did not." Bodies Didn't Touch. "Did your bodies touch?" "Thpy did not." "Did you in any manner touch her?" "No not unless my fingers might have touched hers as we held to the pa pers." "How long, did you hold to the pa pers?" "Just long enough for them to reach this height." The governor then indi cated a line just above the waist. The governor then walked to coun sels' table and demonstrated manner In which Mrs. West took papers from the governor's desk. "I had my hands on the papers," said the governor, "and as she grabbed them I swung around and tried to hold to them, but she lifted them from the table." What Hodges Said. "What was then said?" "As woman took the papers, I walk ed around my desk and said. 'It is such conduct as this that prejudices such cases.' Mrs. West then said, 'So you are prejudiced. That is Just what we wanted you to say.' Then I again said. Those are part of the office files and I forbid your taking them out ot the office. The women then walk ed out of the office. As they walked out I noticed Mr. Hopkins for the first time. He asked about the trou ble and while we were sitting there taiKing. i rang ror Mr. Seaton." "Did any ot these ladies come back?" "A little later. I noticed Mrs. West had come back into the office and stood there a moment or two looking at us. Then she turned around and waiaea out. Wasn't Crying, He Said. "Was Mrs. West crying?" "She was not." "Was anyone supporting her?" "No, sir." "Did you see her face?" "Yes, sir." "Are letters which usually come In reierence to pardons marked conflden tiair They are." "Did you authorize Mr. Seaton to give out copies of these letters?" Did not. In fact. I rani for Mr. Seaton. doubting that be had riven mem to the women." At that time did vnu have any hatred or malice toward these women or intend to do them any wrong or violence? Had no intention of doing them any wrong, and had no chance to do them any violence, as did not touch them." The direct examination was concluded at 10:80, after just 45 minutes of ex amination by Judge Hawkes. Otis Hungate conducted the cross examina tion. Heard Protests Before. You never heard nf this case be fore the women came to Toueka?" asked Hungate. Only as we had received nrotests. replied the governor. "When the women called on the 8th, they left their evidence with your "Papers which they said was new evidence." "Did you turn these papers over to Mr. Seaton?" "Yea" "Under the administration of Gov ernor Stubbs, were there not blanks in use for paroles?" "I cannot say?' "Have you not since learned that such Was the case?" "From Mr. Seaton's testimony,-would judge such was the case." "When Mrs. Buckwalter showed you paragraph from letter, where was the letter?" "In her hand." "What did you dor "I said where did you get that? Let me see it." Both Had Hold of Letter. "What did she do?" "Handed me the letter. "Didn't you both have hold of let ter?" "We must have or the letter would have fallen to the floor." "Did you glance at the letter suffi ciently to know that the letter was a copy and not the original?" "I knew it was a copy." "You asked her where she got the letters and she said Mr. Seaton gave them to her?" "Yes." "What was then said?" Seaton. ofade, .no Difference, r "MrsC 'Buckwalter said, 'Mr. Seaton is your clerk,' and I said. That makes no difference. These letters- should not go out of the office.' "Well, are the letters on file in par don cases, public property?" "They are not." "Don't you think applicant for a pardon has a right to know about pro tests filed against him?" "As I said, we don't retry casea We hear "the evidence on both sides and determine for ourselves the merits of a case." At 11 o'clock the court took a ten minute recess. Following the recess Hungate resumed his cross-examination of the governor. "Didn't Mrs. Buckwalter say she thought she was entitled to office flies?" "Don't have any recollection of such a statement." "Will you cay she did not?" "I have answered your question." Hnhgate Badgered Him. "But you are not so stingy you will not answer twice?" badgered Hungate. "I will not discuss your rights," re sponded the governor. "Mrs. West reached across your desk for the letters?" "Yes, sir." "Had to reach quite a ways?" "Quite a ways." "Have you any recollection as to whether you put you hands on the papers at the time she did?" "Yes. one of my hands I put on the paper." "What did you do with your other hand?" "Then took hold of papers with my other hand as she grabbed the papers." "She was then against the table?" "I think so." "And you were also against the ta ble?" "I think so, possibly." "Papers were then raised Ui several inches, abcut waist high?" "About waist high "Both of you had hold of papers with both hands?" "We both had papers with both hands." "You knew these were copies of let ters?" Raise Cain With Them. "Knew they were copies of letters that concerned the character of Mrs. Buckwalter. Did not know but that she would take them home and try to raise Cain with them. Did not want them to go out of office." "Did you know she had copies of more than one letter?" "Did not. although was not sure whether she had copies of the Dr. Shults letter or not." "Did you know about contents of the letters V "I did not" "How far was Mrs. West from your table when you let loose of the let ters?" "About four or five feet." Was Not Angry. "You say you were not at all angry?" "Don't think I -was." "Was there anything said that made you want to use violence?" "There was not, I Think." Governor a Hired Man. "Anything said about you being a hired man?" "Something like that said." "When?" "Earlier in the proceedings." "But nothing that made you want to infltft wiolence?" "Thu wsiji irt "At the termination of this affair were you angry?" He Was Astounded. "I was more astounded than angry." "Were you angry at all?" "I think not. I was more perturbed than otherwise "Had they used Insulting language?" TOPEKA, KANSAS. JtlNE 5, 1914. "Only such a Mrs. Buckwalter used." Denies an Interview. "In an Interview did you say 1 was subject to the most insulting- remarks, and if it had been a man it might have been different.' Did you say that?" "I did not." "Aren't you a man who has had nghta with men?" Governor Had One Fight. "Had one fight since I became a man." "Did you have a fight with Senator Ganse in a senate committee room?" "I was sitting in a chair when Sena tor Ganse walked up and slapped me and asked if I made a certain remark. I put my glasses in my pocket, got up and hit him with my open hands. anocung ntai about six feet." "Knocked him down?" "I did." "That was the only fight you had?" -mat wasn't a fight," replied the governor, as the crowd in the court room laughed. Judge Hawkes. in hia re-direct ex amination ssked: Didn't Hit Mrs. West. "Did you hit Mrs. West?" "I did not." "Did Mrs. West say she was a mem ber of the w. c. t. nr 'Said she wore the white ribbon." "Before this- time had you seen the letters from Miss Dobbs and Dr. Dt...ll-li ouuiu i "Yes." "What was your reason for keeping these letters from going out of the office?" "To prevent controversies and pos sible ruptlon between parties."' At 11:35 Governor Hodges was ex cused from the stand. His actual testi mony before the jury had consumed a trine less than two hours. Judge Hawkes then announced that but two witnesses would be called by the de fense in addition to Drs. Munn and Joss, whose testimony was still held in abeyance by the court. Dawson on Stand. Attorney General John S. Dawson was the first witness called at today's session. His testimony concerned vis its to his office by Mrs. West and Mrs. Buckwalter and conversations held with the two women both in Topeka and in Wichita. General Dawson said he had known the two women for several months. First, met them at the depot in Wichita, he said. "At that time they told me they were interested In securing clemency for Frank Sullivan,", said Daawson. They wanted either a pardon- from the district judge or from the gov ernor." "Did they ask yoj to make an In vestigation?" "Think they did." The attorney general said he in vestigated the case. Later saw the women when they same to Topeka in April to see Governor Hodges. "They came to see me two days before the episode in the governor's office." said General Dawson. "What was said?" "Said county attorney and police matron had busied 'themselves in sending Sullivan to pMson. Toldthem McGill one of best-county attorneys in state and knew he was not trying to send innocent people to the peni tentiary. Had too much to do to get guilty ones there." Had a Fair Trial, v, -"Knowing Judge Wilson did you tell them he gave Sullivan a fair trial?" "Told them knew he had fair trial." "When did you next see the wo men "The following day. They came to my office with Judge Seaton." "What was said?" "Judge Seaton asked me to investi gate this case and send Mr. Montgom ery to Wichita." "Anything else?" "Told them their efforts did favor to their hearts, but not to their Judg ment." Said What They Thought of Him. "What did the women say?" "Don't just remember. They made some flippant remarks. In short they said Just what they thought of me." "Did you afterward have conversa tion with Mr. Simon r "Yes. sir.' "Did yon tell him you had investlgat- (Continued on Page Eight.) HOT AGAIN TODAY.

She is second in size to the Vaterland, the largest ship in the world. Her ton nage is .47,000 and she can accommodate 5.000 passengers. Temple of Taste. The new liner gilded from the cradle at Clydebank in April, 1913. In fittings, furniture and internal decoration she has been called a floating palace, luxu rious beyond the dreams of ease and comfort, a winged sea-girt citadel, a temple of taste, and epitome of Anglo Saxon art in particular for two and a half centuries. Her interior tells the story of the na tions from the days of the "goodlle ship the Great Harry" down to the Na poleon. It is said a trip on her will be a sort of preparatory course to an In telligent enjoyment of the art galleries of Europe, the ancient landmarks and the English mansions. The term cabin and the term state room may be taken in the same sense in which the word stateroom is used in describing Windsor Castle, Kensing ton Palace and Hampton Court. In her decorative details the new Cunarder embraces the Tudor times, the days of Hans Holbein, of Sir "Anthonle" Van Dyke and Inigo Jones, the periods of domestic architecture be tween the Restoration of Charles II and the middle of the reign of George III, the stern classicism of Christopher Wrenn. the French masters in the early part of the reign of Louis the Magnifi cent, and the lighter motives of the Adams and the Dances. The Dutch influences of the end of the seventeenth century are also felt in the decoration of the wonder ship. On the grand staircaes is an original example of Giovanni Antonio Panini, who loved to conjure up Roman ruins. Then the voyager comes face to face with the carrying cf Grinllng Gibbons, the portraits of Lely and Kneller, and the iron work of Jeon Trljou. A Dream in Art. The Aquitania is also a fine example of the engraver's art, the sculptor's art and that of the tapestry makers of Mortlake. The reflectione of the great painters of the eighteenth century will be found on the bulkheads In line-engravings ty Hollar and Faithorne, by G. B. Cipriani, Sir R. Strange and Fran cesco Bartlozzi. There also are to be seen Penn, Nel son, Washington, the two William Pitts, George III and Benjamin Franklin, as well as the graceful forms and charm ing features of those women of the eighteenth century -erpet lated by the skill of Reynolds, Romney, Gainsbor ough, Reburn and Hopper. Then there are themes from Greenwich Hospital, Kensington, Bromley Palace and Hamp ton Court. The smoke room is Carolean, the lounge Christopher Wrenn, the drawing room an Adam. The swimming pool is Pompelian, the trellis gardens Italian and even the gymnasium an object les son in high art. The Aquitania 'is the biggest steam ship under the British flag. She is 901 feet long, has 97 feet beam and is 92 feet deep from .the boat deck, with a gross tonnage of 47,000. She has ac commodations for nearly 5.000 persons. Warm Weather Is General.

The painter was not painting, but he must have forgotten his hoodoo when he picked up his paint brushes. Anyhow, It was sticking around. Mr. Gear's troop of performing seals played some thing that resembled baseball, but all to no purpose; they made a sufficient number of scores to satisfy a fan or even a "bug." Whole four-game series have been won with fewer scores, but not while the opposing highbinders were making eleven per game. And trie evi dence seems to warrant the suspicion that, perchance the Kawe should sit into a game with four kinks and an ace, the team across the table would hold four aces and a kink. They played good music Thursday afternoon, but they flatted on the high notes. The new pltcner, Mr. iiigginDoi.ua.iu not only hypnotized the first three up, but succeeded in swatting one Mr. Wat son on the frijole. The verdict of the grandstand was a spring fry, (Bostonese for small foul), as the spectators ere unwilling to believe that Mr. Watson's head would give out the sound of half a brick striking a board fence. But as Mr. Watson seemed fatigued, no outcry was raised when he was permitted to walk, and eventually score. As Mr. Higginbotham opened his grip in the fourth and discovered that his choiceest samples wre gone, he was re lieved by Mr. Stevens, but the unfrocked Saints continued to do a retail business, and the fourth period closed 6-2, favor of the invaders. Three carloads of To pekans began to talk about the wheat crop, and one third degree fan who works, at times, in a gents furnishing emporium and is suspected of getting a small commission on sales, began to pan his companion's 1913 straw kelly. The Topeka fans have become reconciled to fate, and no longer hoo-raw the oppos ing pitcher or accuse the ump of petit porch climbing when the home team slips. They merely taki It easy. Thus the game limped along until nearly supper time, when the firm of Koerner, Tallion and Forsythe opened a John-pot and brought the figures up to 6-7, biggest figure, of course, represent ing the preferred stock of the visitors. That looked so refreshing that several spectators who had decided to go out and take the California Limited, instead of awaiting the funeral ship, turned right around and sat down again. They were barelyx seated when Mr. Stevens stopped a hard batted one, which so SUGAR Bert Granulated 27 lbs. $1.00 tim af altar Gm Pulverised Sugar, 2 lbs 15c Wheat Germ, 6 lb. sack 25c Lighthouse Cleanser, equal to any 10c can. 5c Peaches, lBc quality, can 12c Apricots, special. 2 cans ........25c Plums, ISe quality, can 10c Sal Soda, 7 lbs. for iOc Coffee, S brands, soo pkg.

That permitted two more of the Missouri Hessians to Jump the brest- worKs. And yet another pair got in be- rore tne painful incident was closed. The last rally was something like the tne Alamo, good fight, but a losine- one. Koerner put one over the fence, down near the spot where the painter kept on painting, ana tne spectators sat up anu vuacrvea: senoia, IHISS Is no crate of quinces that we have warmed In our bosom. THIS is a group of hand-picked, guaranteed-under-the pure-food-act ball players." But, as has been remarked heretofore. they couldn't catch up. Whoever made tne rules, cut the game too short at one end. Nine innings were not enough. ana tne corners verdict was: Topeka 9, St. Joe 1L Pack away the books, kiddies, and bring out the balls and bats and the bathing suits. For it's Vacation Time with a capital V. Six thousand, five hundred children marched soberly from Tnneka'K 24 school buildings to-day, broke ranks with a shout and galloped I home to the tune of a happy heart, chanting "Rah, rah, rah Vacation!" The grades and the primaries have closed for the summer months. The teachers will hie themselves to the sea and mountains. The youngsters will forget "Go. went, gone." and all the other irregular verbs and the brow wrinkling fractions. Through June, July and August they will live in a wonder-wonder land of Irresponsibility, then brush their hair, scrub their hands, strap their books and skip back to the brick buildings that re-open September 14. Once upon a time grade school clos ing exercises were dull and dreary and characterized by stage fright. Times have changed. "Speaking day" is an elaborate affair with printed programs and nicely poised little boys and girls, who have been coacbed by elocution teachers. Long time ago the selections were "Horatius at the Bridge," "Sparticus to the Gladiators." "The Charge of the Light Brigade" given as murderously as the attack itself or, at best, reiter ated accounts of "The Children's Hour.". The youngster who delved into Field's dear "Love Songs of Childhood" or Stevenson's matchless "Garden of Verses," recited "The Poppy Lady" or "My Shadow" in a sing-song tone. It's Different Now. All different now. Take Polk school, for instance, where there is self govern ment rule. A knickered boy may point to a bigger knickered boy who is gig gling In ranks and say, "Step out of line, there, and report to the office." There is a president with his governors and mayors. The exercises are in the hands of the children, not the teacher. Each room is divided into two societies, named for poets or authors. The chairman and the secretary preside. They announce, ."The third number on our program is 'The Water Melon Stocking by Josephine Wear." The guests refer to their neat programs, printed or typewritten, and tied with me society colors. Josephine tells a funny, brief, little story ,in an enter taining way. Up-to-date Topics. Glance -over the proexams "Hour Cassie Saved the Spoons," "The Bear Story That Alex 1st Made Up His uwnseir.

Chicago, June 5-WHEAT Although the wheat market shewed some firmness at the outset, prices later were inclined to sag. Reports of delayed seeding in Ar gentina with prospects of a smaller acre age there led- to considerable buying bat the favorable .weather in the domestic whi ter belt gradually -assumed greater in fluence. Besides the Ohio state report was bearish and a sharp decline was' re ported at Budapest. Quotations which started c off to 44e up. hardened a little and then fell below last night's level all around. Subsequently export sales at Duluth tended to cause a rally. The effect, how ever, failed to last. The close was easy, at tbe same as last night to ttsttte lower. CORN Higher cables gave corn a tem porary lift. Weakness ensued, however, when wheat turned down grade. After obenine- a shads to VlBxs ud. and scoring a slight further gain, all of the advance was lost and a little more. An uoturn followed, eastern demand proving better than expected and the movement from first hands being smali. The close steady at a sixteenth to 44Gc above last night. OATS Welsome rains eased the oats market. Commission houses generally took to the aelline side. PROVISIONS Notwithstanding a rise in the hog market, provisions suffered a setback.

He Couldn't Stand It Any Longer There ia a man living down at Ote tourg, Kansas, by the name of E. 1 Barkyoumb, who suffered from stom ach trouble many long years. He had been treated by doctors of course, but with little or no relief. For a long time Mr. Barkyoumb read the state ments made by Er. Wolfe, the chief specialist of the United roctors. For just as long a period he watied, won dered, doubted whether the specialist could do what he claimed. Mr. Barkyoumb's stomach trouble grew steadily worse as he waited. He might, have waited too long. He did wait until he was so weak and ner vous, his stomach so badly disordered that he could not stand his suffering any longer. Then, and not until then, did Mr. Barkyoumb come to the head of the United Doctors and asked to be exam ined. Right in the hottest portion of the summer, July, last year, Mr. Bark youmb became so weakened that al most any kind of activity disabled him. Right when fevers and conta gious diseases were most prevalent, his disordered stomach refused to di gest properly, the food so badly needed to resist disease bacteria. There was no question but that Mr. Barkyoumb needed the attention of the best physician the country afford ed. He had almost waited too long. He came, however, was examined, was told he could be cured. He bepan treatment at once, not a day too soon, either. He was restored to health, but he followed the directions of the United Doctors specialist from July until December, before Dr. Wolfe pro nounced him well again. Now as a business proposition, as a protection to health would it not have been far better had this sufferer rome to the United Doctors risht at the start, saved months of pain and suffering and the time required to re gain normal health would have been much less. Don't wait until you cannot endure your suffering any longer. If you are troubled with nervous disorders or weakened stomach or intestinal de rangement come to the United Doctors before the heat of summer drives you to a bed of torture. The United Doctors have cured many cases of chronic stomach and bowel trouble, in fact every case they accept has been cured. If they cannot affect a cure they will tell you hon estly and plainly just the conditions you are in and examination and con sultation at all times are free.

The cruiser Brooklyn which has been stationed at the local navy yard for nearly ten years and which at one time was or dered to the scrap heap, will sail soon for China to take her place as flag ship of the Asiatic squadron. The Brooklyn was Admiral Schley's flagship, during the Spanish-American war, and led the fighting when the Spanish fleet was destroyed at Santiago. The ship was struck about 20 times by shells and her sides still show where the blows were received. Several years after the war the' vessel was sent to the Philadelphia navy yard where she was put out of com mission. About a year ago work was begun on the vessel and she was com pletely overhauled. Today she is one of the best and fastest cruisers in the navy. GOSSIP OF THE SPORTS (By Jake Lewis, Official Scorer.) The recent decision of the Indian Johnson case, in the courts of Cook county, Illinois, may cause the major league managers to loosen up and send some of their young recruits to the big minor leagues for additional seasoning. However, they probably will wait un til after June 10, pending the decision of the Killifer case in the United States court of appeals. The Killifer and Johnson cases are practically parallel. The validity of the contract was ques tioned in both cases but the Killifer case hinged on the reserve clause and this was knocked out by a decision of the judge at Grand Rapids, Mich. The ten days' clause in Johnson's contract was the bone of contention. Should the court of appeal affirm the decision of the Grand Rapids court In the Killifer court, the Federal League will probably give out its dying gasps and sink into oblivion. All their props will then have been knocked from under them and they will be un able to coax players from organized baseball excepting those which have nothing to hold them but the reserve clause. Baseball men predicted the demise of the Feds on or before July 4, and indication causes one to believe they were correct. The reserve clause will not be of much use to the outlaws, as managers will be sure to get signed contracts from desirable players before the pre ceding contract expires. Jack Holland is lying awake night, waiting for the Killifer decision, as some of the Federal League players Jumped his club. The decision probably will cause them to return. Pa Rourke, owner of the Omaha club, says that managers of organized base ball are making a mistake when they consider reinstating players who have deserted organized ranks to Join Fed eral League clubs. In his opinion, the player should not be allowed to return to organized ranks. Charley Hall, formerly a pitcher with the Boston Red Sox. Is playing In the outfield with the St. Paul club and is doing well. He was a member of the Omaha pitching staff before going to the Red Sox. ball wars during his career and can foresee the damage that might re sult in permitting these players to return. As he explains the situ ation, baseball fans consider a con tract Jumper no better than a high binder or one who has violated the civil laws by committing felony, and to re instate these players would invite un popularity thus -causing a decrease In the interest in the game. Wonder if the fans of the Western League have been watching the per formances of Phil Koerner, the big first baseman with the Topeka club. This big fellow was bought from the Wichita club for a. meager sum, last summer. He was "In bad" with the Wichita fans and was virtually "run off" the club. He knew the fans were after him and it affected his playing. But this condition does not exist here nor even in Wichita this season. Koerner is making a better showing than any man on the Topeka club, probably excepting Forsythe, and there is not a first baseman on the circuit who is doing any better. He has grad ually improved his batting average, which appeared to be weak when the season started and now is leading all the regulars of the club. Rapps has a better average but is not playing stead ily. As a fielder, there is not a first baseman on the circuit who is making a better showing. During the recent slump, the fans probably overlooked the performance of Outfielder Forsythe. This man is prob ably the class of the league and is per forming stellar stunts daily while pro tecting his territory. His batting has not been up to the standard until within a few days ago. He is a slow starter and some warm weather is necessary to start him on his regular batting speed. BASEBALL League Park ST. JOSEPH VS. TOPEKA Thursday, Friday, Satur day, Sunday.

If the property owned by the state of Kansas at Topeka could, be put on the tax rolls it would add five and a half millions to the taxable valuation of Shawnee county. Secretary ot State Charles Sessions has had this estimate prepared. It is the idea henceforth to keep an annual tab on the state assets which the people of Kansas own in common. Without taking an inventory of the property around the capitol building. Mr. Sessions has had as accurate an estimate as possible prepared by the heads of the various departments to show about what value should be placed on the property in their charge.

Compared with the damage that the British suffragettes are doing f ith hatchets, the activities of the late Car rie Nation in that direction were rath er feeble. As the New Tork World points out, the trouble is that so many a young graduate of this week in America will drop his political ideals with his graduation oratory. England must be shuddering over the prospects of what will happen next. One of its wild women declares that she and her sisters-in-crime have been al togetner too ladylike in the past.

If District Attorney Whitman of New Tork city is successful in his race for the governorship of New Tork state, his induction into office will be a sorry occasion for the crooks and grafters, regardless of their political stripes, who have been feathering their nests at the expense of the peo ple of the Empire state this long while.

The principal reason the average wheat yield In Kansas -s less than fourteen bushels an acre Is that Kan sas farmers grow more, wheat than they can care for ito the' beat advan tage. Such is the comment of Cecil Salmon, assistant j professor of farm crops In the Kansas State Agricultural college, according to the" Kansas In dustrialist. The result is, says Mr. Salmon, that part of the land must.be plowed too late for good results and that some of the wheat must be sown too early in order to get all the wheat sown early enough. Professor- Salmon believes that the average Kansas wheat grower pays his hired .man more than he himself re ceives after paying the cost of grow ing the crop and the interest on the investment, and after deducting the value of the fertility removed from the land. "Nebraska, with no better soil and a climate not so favorable, pro duces more than seventeen bushels an acre, and Washington more than twen ty-one bushels. "One of the most important points in growing a good crop of wheat," says Professor Salmon, "13 the prepa ration of the ground. This is true because the storage of water in the soil and the amount of plant food that is made available depend upon it to a great extent. Food and water are as necessary for plants as for animals. If plants do not have the right amount of food or enough of it at the right time, they become stunted and will not make so good a yield as they other wise would. "Ground that is left in stubble after harvest will not absorb water readily. Also, the stubble continues. to carry water up from the soil and allows it to evaporate into, the air. -Much of the rain, instead of soaking into the soil, runs off into the streams. But if the ground is plowed, runoff is prevented, and the water that falls in heavy rains is more readily absorbed. This water gradually soaks down into the subsoil where it remains foe the use of the following crop. "The necessity of having plenty of water stored in the soil is shown .by the fact that a twenty-bushel crop of wheat requires about 600 tons of water to cb acre. If this amount is not stored in the soil or not supplied by rain when the crop needs it, less than a twenty-bushel yield will be pro duced. On the other hand, a good crop of wheat can be grown without any rain at all during the growing season, if sufficient water is stored in the soil before the wheat is sown. "When a crop of wheat is harvested, it takes from the soil most of the avail able plant food. Consequently, before another crop can be grown, more plant food must be developed. This is done. to a large extent, by bacteria which work on the vegetable matter stored in the soil. As bacteria require both moisture and air, very little plant food is developed in a soil that Is dry, and hard,' as is unp lowed ground. For this reason, ground that is plowed late does not contain so much -plant ioo.d as that which is plowed early." CONGRESS AND GOOD ROADS. Federal legislation comes thick and fast these days, and despite the fact that attention is concentrated on a few important bills, there is a feeling among Congressmen that it takes about so long for a bill to work through, anyway, writes Joe Mitchell Chappie in the National Magazine. Introduced by one member of Congress, re-introduced by another in the next Congress, some bills keep on beinj introduced again and again until some day they are passed. "Good roads" enthusiasts have been deeply interested in a bill recently in troduced by Congressman Woodruff, for the construction and maintenance, of good roads in the various states and territories. The measure provides for' transferring the matter of public roads to the Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Postal Roads in the Post Office Department. A director would be empowered to appoint assistants in the various states and territories to inspect the roads.- j,In the bill, the roads are classified alphabetically from A to H. and one Washington wit insisted that they could get in all the rest of the alphabet, including X. T and Z. if the varied conditions of country roads were classified. The basic purpose of the bill Is to have he government provide a propor tion of the cost of constructing the roads the cities and towns must do the rest. Mr. Woodruff has given the mat ter a great deal of study, and insists that If the government can build rail roads in Alaska, it should be able to provide at least passable roads along postal highways in our own country. The subject of "good roads" has now reached t a point where, it is felt by many, something besides "talking" should be. done. IS YOTTR ICE BOX SAFE? In the June Woman's Home Com panion Walter Peet, a physician. writes an- article entitled. "The Safe Ice Box." Following is an extract: "The home ice box is a most im portant factor in maintaining the family health, and may be a decided menace to it if it is not .properly looked after.! "It is poor economy to get a small amount of .ice; a large supply put in at one time and completely filling the tea compartment will last longer than the same arrount supplied in daily small portions. "The refrigerator should be washed thoroughly once a week. Remove all the fixtures, including the drain pipe. Use a strong solution of carbonate of soda (washing soda) with no soap. Get into all the corners and crevices with a small brush, and use a large brush and cloths for the flat surfaces. Next scald out with boiling water, reaching every point of the interior, and. finally, thoroughly rinse with cold water In order again to cool the Interior. Leave all the doors open for a good airing. VCTaah the fixture and strain.. skfnA.1 in the a lone wire-handled round brush for the in side of the drain pipe. If the fixtures are not too large and the drain pipe is IA sections, it is weir also to put them in the clothes boiler and boiling washing ao da (solution. "It is important, .also, regularly to look after the stationary drip pan and the pipe: leading from it, "The pan should be washed and its pipe' hushed with a strong solution of lye. "The ice should be thoroughly washed after it comes from the ice man, for it often has loose dirt cling ing, to it. Put it into the sink; turn on the faucet full and be certain that the water reaches each of- the six sides of the cube!" Journal Entries Cheap wit is the kind ycur enemies indulge in. About the only secrets that are safe are the few taken to graves. A fine automobile trip is sometimes a police court affair. Few. indeed, are the individuals who are not susceptible to flattery.
Every entertainment is interesting from the standpoint of those who present It. J ay hawker Jots "Refusing to speak" is the small one's idea of "getting even," thinks the Conway Springs Star. As the Holton Signal says: The fly in the ointment has nothing on the fly in the wheat as a trouble maker. Probably every mother looks through the "other end" of the glass at her own child's faults, .writes Mrs. Homer Hoch in the Marion Record. Well, a child only has one mother and the world's full of other people who see his faults in full large propor tions. So perhaps the child will not be spoiled with an over-dose of char ity for his shortcomings. Observations, by Miss Anna Carlson in the Lindsborg News: Aches and pains never insist on union hours .Even the owl seems to think he knows Who's Who Lend a hand but don't forget also to bring your pocketbook .Dame Rumor and Dame Fortune are two mighty unre liable old ladies More folks are handicapped by ugly dispositions than by homely .features. When a stubborn man marries a bossy, nagging woman the public always bets on the woman.. "The tight skirt,'"' says an exchange in a headline, "is passing." Which is too true, adds 'the Emporia Gazette, and it continues: One passed the win dow a moment ago, through which we saw a wart on the left-hind leg of a perfectly strange lady. That does seem a little informal for even these rapid times. In our grandmother's day no lady would show the wart on the southwest quarter of the east half of section 4, range 6. to a gentleman without at least the formality of an introduction. But now we certainly are gotng. some.' t J, I 4 I, Globe-Sights BT THE ATCHISON GLOBE. Most fat woman are good cooks. Facts never write aa big headlines as imagination.

The writer of' vaudevflle'skits naturally ought to feel skittish. Even in warm weather some people will put hot dressing on salad. Some people never seem to do much talking, except when they have nothing to say. Don't expend all your admiration on your ancestors. Save a little for your self.

The Evening Story Claire 'Flufflesv (By Helen Hicks Brown.) "You are so hopelessly British. Can't you learn to talk our Jokes a little?" asked the girL "Come out and walk in the park with me. I am, much more amusing in the open." nrized the man. "You are not to be trusted any where." "You may depend upon me to make love anywhere." Maisie jumped. "I should say so. Tou've done it all about the place, but never before right out loud like that.". t "It is difficult for an American girl to recognize the real article. Tour men never make love they make dollars and humor their wives." "Don't try to scintillate; you are not adapting a play." "I am making arrangements to produce one here next month, though. Will you help me?" "Oh, Mr. Beresford! How could I help? Wbat is the play?" "The last yell of that clever Scan dinavian can't pronounce the chap's name." "I'm thrilling to my toes at finding myself under the same roof with a celebrated actor-manager really at work." "Come with me tomorrow and help select a caste. I shall try the experi ment of an American support." He bristled with eagerness. Maisie had a distinct drop. "My, but you are pushing things," she re joined. The man drew a long breath and plunged recklessly: "How do you live when you are not here. Miss Dal zell? Mrs. Morton says you have no people. I am tired of being conven tional. Frankness is the best line, don't you think?" "No, I don't." Maisie Dalzell's.face went stupidly pink. "I hate honesty and talking things out. ft is high time that we should part. I go home tomorrow, so this must be good-by." "But go home? I do not under stand. You live here in the city?" "I live in my New York, not in yours." Disdain brushed her speech. "What is the difference? "About thirty city blocks and .a, thou sand miles of atmosphere." "I may call upon you?" he asked eagerly. "You may not," she returned with, a tartness which puckered her lips. "And you won't help me with the play?" Her head dropped, unwillingly neg ative. "Pardon me." Maisie drifted away as he glared blindly out upon the avenue. Mrs. Morton would have sent her guest home in a limousine, but the girl refused. ..-j-' "I want to begin again quite right and straight. It has been wonderful up here -with all your beautiful things lulling me Into forgetfulness. I am going to say tha'Sk you because it is por lite, but I think you should be ashamed of yourself." "You were always the queerest creat ure," laughed Mrs. Morton. "I brought you here to make you envious and you have the audacity to despise us." Maisie moaned. "I only' despise my self. Why Caro, would you believe it. my indifference to luxury was mere ignorance. Yon are a dreadful, beau tiful jascinaOuS Philistine; you have debased my- seuU" Caro Morton laughed lazily. "I care not a, rajp'.about your silly soul," she gurgled "It was too exquisite for ev ery dayuse. I have had my own way with you for the first time in all of our friendship, and have given you one holiday which may wake you up and make you crawl out of that narrow lit tle berth in Washington place. You were not born to stagnate. Why were you given such a gift -of -gab with the pen?" t Maisie flung out her arms in a ges ture of real despair. "That is the worst of it," she wailed, "that is the worst of it. I cannot think of anything more to write. I've been smothered in magnificence until my fancies have faded away. Always I've feared that I should come to the end of the stories that were in me and now the time has come." "Oh, you will have plenty of ideas again by and by," remarked Mrs. Mor ton carelessly. "I thought you were principally worried for fear Irving Beresford would find you out." "You have sworn never to tell him," the girl pleaded.; "But someone v else will. He wori't care, anyway. He will only laugh." That is It," bitterly. "He will laugh. Who wouldn't laugh at a girl who earns her living by waiting for the trashy papers?" "You are clever to be able to write for anything, I cannot understand why you are so ashamed of being Claire Fluffles.' "Well, please never give Mr. Beres ford my address, and never, never tell him about those articles." A month later Mr. Irving Beresford banged peremptorily at a dingy base ment entrance on Washington place. "What a hole," he thought disgust edly. "What a hole, and she the most fastidious!" The door was suddenly flung wide. It took the man a long moment to recognise Maisie in the gaunt figure which confronted him. Her soiled shirt waist was collatiess, and the neckband carelessly turned down exposing a shockingly thin throat. A wet towel twisted around her head threw into vivid relief the feverish brilliancy of her tormented eyes. "You see, I did come into your New TorkV he said. "It has come." she announced hoarse ly, heedless of his greeting. "I do not care who knows now. I cannot write a thing. I have been struggling for days and days, and nights upon nights. I knew I should give out sometime." He gently urged her into the sordid sitting room with its timid attempts at homeliness. Maisie excitedly dropped him a mock courtesy. "This is my mansion, she announced. "I can't write any more. I never wanted you to know the worst about me, and so I have lied and lied. I'm Claire Fluffles,' the notorious creator of spurious romances. Aren't you ashamed of ever having spoken to such a person? I don't mind, though. I do not care any longer for you or your opinion. They were my sub sistence, those silly, sentimental tales, and they have all gone out of me." The man regarded her penetrat ingly.

Attempt to Save Him From Penitentiary Sentence. A legal battle to save John, Calla han of Sumner county from a state penitentiary sentence of from five to ten years for bank robbery is taking the time of nve attorneys and of the justices of the supreme court today. It is precipitated by the application of Judge W. T. McBride, attorney of Sumner county, for an order of the court to forfeit a 25,000 bond which had been put up for Callahan's lib erty, as well aa a. committment for Callahan to the state penitentiary.' Callahan is at liberty and Sumner county authorities claim he is a fugi tive. Callahan has been in hot water since he was pardoned by the presi dent last January from the term he was serving in the federal penitenti ary for an entirely different offense from that involved in the present ac tion. After his arrest for the bank robbery in Sumner county, he became one of the defendants in the famous Wichita case when the federal gov ernment prosecuted Chief of Police Burt, Callahan and a banker named Naftzger for purchasing stamps that had been stolen from a postoffice at Hope. Banker Naftzger fought the case tnrougn tne United States cir cuit court before he was acquitted. Chief Burt was pardoned and Calla han went to Leavenworth. He got his pardon last January. In the .meantime be was resting under sentence on the state bank robbery charge. In the warden's office in the federal prison he was re-arrested by state authorities, but the intervention of Lee Bond, a Leavenworth attorney. gained his liberty on habeas corpus proceedings, and Callahan went to Wichita. He has won attempts' there to put mm, in. jail through actions in the probate court for the release of his bondsmen, but now tho Sumner county authorities have closed in with a final effort to send him to Lansing under his eld sentence. Jean Madalene of Wichita is here ngnting for his liberty along with At. torney Bond, on the theory that no attempt was ever made to commit Cal lahan,tq the. state penitentiary "at the time sentence was pronounced being' then In the custody of the federal au thorities. They assert that the state can not dig up the old sentence and make it good now, after the lapse of nearly' four years. Earl Blake, f Wichita, attorney for the bondsman who are being sued for the 13,000 bail they furnished for Calla han's liberty, is here to petition the TOuri lur uie release or ms clients from their responsibility. Just where allahan now is is not clear. He has been in Wichita much or nis time since hi pardon, but when the Sumner county sheriff tried to lo cate him recently he was not at hand, although his attorneys deny that he is a iugitlve. THE DAY IN CONGRESS Movement to Limit the Trust Legis lation Program. Washington, June 6. Senate re sumed debate on repeal of Panama tolls exemption. Senate resolution inviting foreign governments to participate in national Star Spangled Banner celebration in Baltimore in September adopted by the house. Debate resumed on railroad secur ities bilL, Progressive party bills 'for federal employment bureau were discussed be fore labor committee. The movement to limit the admin istration's trust legislation program at this session to passage of the inter state trade commission bill took -form in the senate when Senator Pomerene introduced a resolution in the Inter state commerce committee to approve only that portion of the omnibus bill pending. It will be voted upon to morrow. Mr. Pomerene conferred with President Wilson on the program two days ago and his introduction of such a resolution ..was interpreted as sig nificant. In recognition of the services of the French people in the construction of the Panama canal, first steps were taken to-day to present to France, the steam launch Louise, used in construct ing the canal and to give to the little ship bearing the French flag, the place of honor at the formal opening. Senator Root to-day introduced a resolution authorizing-the presentation. The Louise was built in France In' 1885, and used by the French Panama canal company and later by the United States. Ambassador Juaserand has already informed this government that the launch would not only be accepted, but would be taken as another evidence of the traditional sympathy between the two republics.

Hundred Millions of Non-Taxable Talne Shown. This year for the first time eanntv assessors are reporting to the state tax commission the value of all property In the state on which no taxes are paid. This, addnd tn th. tovuhla will make it possible for the tax com mission to give out an accurate state ment of the total wealth of Kansas which in undnuhtArilv Iomm. h hundred millions than is the taxable va.iua.uon. Never has a general report been made on the valnatinn nf hnn.H erty, for example, or country school uuuaes, or cemeteries or tne real estate held by eleemosynary institutions. Yet it is unfair to make any statement of the wealth of the state without in cluding these and other kindred items. No one knows what Kansas has in vested in niihlln tnilbltnn. farms, penal institutions or bridges. The accumulation of this information has added materially to the labors of the county assessors and they have not assumed their added duties with glad hearts. But they are coming across with the information, duly en tered by items which will be summed up by the tax commission and made a part of their report for the year 1914. DOUBT m HOPE They Constitute the PreTaillng Sentiment Among1 Mediators. Further Action Still Walts on Carranza's Announcement. Niagara Fails, Ont June B. The general attitude' here, in regard to the expected reply from General Carranza, chief of the constitutionalist cause In Mexico, to the note the South Ameri can mediators sent him last Tuesday tnrougn nis representatives in Wash ington, la i -mixture of doubt and hope. In some quarters there was more or less skepticism manifested. It w evident some believed Carranza's re sponse, would be negative, but it was hoped it would leave open the door tor continued correspondence. Semi official statements in regard to the at titude of Carranza toward the tnedl anon proceedings indicate he Is not ready to accept unreservedly the offer of good offices practically renewed by the mediators. A question which aroused Interest nere today was as to when Carranza, who Is reported en route from Dur ango to Saltlllo, would reach the lat ter city, wnere he la preparing to es tablish his provisional government.

At Galveston, reports reaching here declared, ammunition on the ship sail ing today would be transshlnned to lunpica Secretary Bryan reiterated' again that Tampico still Is held as an open port notwithstanding that sevferal ships are en route there with arms tor tne constitutionalists.

Reeent discourte sies shown by militants to the kins; and the burning down of fnany churches have inflamed public opinion to a remarkable degree. People have been still further incensed by what In regarded as the well grounded belief that much of the work of destruction to done by hired hands, well paid out of the bulging coffers of the women's social and political union. Cases have been reported of women leaving otner employment to Join the militants, not for love of the cause, but because the pay is better. Peace magistrates have warned suf fragette prisoners that if they had not been protected by the police- they would almost certainly have suffered at the hands of the irate public. The ugly temper shown by the crowd at recent militant demonstrations seems to support this view, Greater activity on the part of the government is expected. Much lucra tive American tourist business is being lost by London hotel and storekeepers because of the suffragette raids on the publio museums and art galleries. The American embassy is flooded with ap plications for special permits to visit the sealed institutions, but Walter Hines Page, the American ambassador, is unable to give any assistance in this way. BEEP, Id STREETS Liquor Sold From Bear of Wagon in North Topeka. Officers Failed to Capture Boot legger, hut Found Keg. The police are looking for a mysteri ous man who has been distributing liquor from the rear end of a wagon in North Topeka. A North side policeman discovered him recently selling beer on a street corner. But as the patrolman approached, the bootlegger made his escape. However, the officer was able to seise the keg from the rear end of the wagon. It was half full of beer and was sent to the police station. Rumors and reports that are circulat ing around North Topeka are to the effect that another novel scheme is be ing used for selling beer; Someone, it is alleged, is distributing liquor from the rear end of an automobile. This Is an effective way of selling the Imported goods, as the bootlegger stands a good chance of making his get away when an officer is approaching. The police are puzzled and are looking for the man in the wagon and are trying to ascer tain whether or not the report that beer is being sold from an auto is true. LATTOCE IS HERE.

FEDS AFTER BLAIIDIIIG Ask Injunction to Prevent His Flay ing With Cleveland Jumped Club. Chicago, June 5. .-The Kansas City Federal league club has served no tice on Pitcher Blanding of the Cleve land Americans to appear before Judge Foell in the superior court here next Monaay when it intends to move that a temporary injunction be grant ed restraining him from playing wltn Cleveland or any club other than the Kansas City Federals. Blanding, the Kansas City club will try to show, signed a contract with it and received $2,500 advance money but before the season opened "Jump ed" his contract though it had no "14 day clause," and returned to the Cleve land club. The hearing is to come before the same judge who yesterday decided against the Kansas City club in the Johnson case, the Cincinnati Nation als in that suit occupying the same place that the Kansas City club does here, according to Federal league counsel. The Federals claim credit for notifying Blanding saying the same courtesy was not shown John son. It was Blanding's return to the Cleveland club that caused President Gilmore to permit the Kansas .City club to "go after any players tinder contract." The reserve rule, which held Blanding to Cleveland will be a factor in the new suit, which did not come up in the Johnson case. TIP O'NFILL SIGNS UMPIRE. Get Fife, WhoW as With Federals Last Tear.

More "than 25 northbound vessels from this port were having difficulty in making headway against the northwest gale, which at times reached a velocity of i more than 80 miles an hour, i Radio messages from several ves 1 sels said their passengers were suf fering all the discomfort of a winter hurricane. Life saving stations be tween San Francisco and Puget sound have been instructed to keep a 1 sharp' lookout for any craft that j might become disabled. PASSENGERS ARE SAFE Northland Is on a Reef But Is in No Immediate Danger. New London, June 5. The passengers from the Kastern line steamer North land, bound from New York for Port land, Maine, which went ashore on Bartletts Reei last night were safely landed in this city at 5 o'clock this morning and a half hour lcter started for Boston and Portland on a special train. The captain and crew of the Northland remained aboard their ship, which is in no immediate danger, as the weather to-day is fair. The passengers. 75 in number, were brought to port by the wrecking tug Tasco, which had been summoned by wireless to the aid of the stranded steamer. The passengers were in a happy frame of mind when they found themselves safely ashore. While on the stranded Northland they said, and with the Empress of Ireland disaster so fresh in mind they were in constant fear that another storm would come up and endanger their lives. The Northland grounded on Barletts Reef, ten miles southwest of here, about midnight last night. Thore was a heavy fog over Long Island Sound, and according to members of the crew of the tug... Tasco,. the Northland for this reason got too close to shore. There was little alarm among the passengers, especially after they learned that wire less signals for help had been answered and a rescue boat was on the way. When the Tasco reached the scene it was decided to transfer the passengers. as it had been found that the North land was damaged about the bows and her forehol.i was taking water. The Northland is a steel screw steam er built in 1910, at Wilmington, for the Eastern Steamship Company, and com. manded by Captain Bragg. She is 304 feet long and has a gross tonnage of 9,731 tor-s.

"They made no remarks until you suggested that their sentiments did no credit to their heads?" "They were pretty sassy then." J. J.

"When they left -the ofHce was Mrs. West crying?" asked Judge Hawkes. "No. Rather giggling." Witness saw Miss Ruth Williams, another stenographer, and Z. G.

"Did Mrs. West wear a veil?" asked Otis Hungate on cross examination. "I don't remember." Bowman on Stand. M. M. Bowman of 1120 Polk street, was called to the stand immediately after the noon recess. Answering a question by Ed McKeever, Bowman stated that he was a Republican. He is a painter by occupation. April 8, the day of the alleged attack. Bowman was sitting near the cigar stand in the state house. "Have a conversation with Mrs. West?" asked McKeever. "I did." "What was said?" Satisfaction in Election. Mrs. West said she did not get much satisfaction in the governor's of fice. Then she added, 'But I will get satisfaction in the general election." "Was she emphatic?" "Yes, I thought so." Witness said Mrs. West made ges tures with her right hand the one sup posed to have been injured and was emphatic in her remarks about the visit to the governor's office. Bowman testified Mrs. West was not crying, that there were no tears in her eyes and that she did not vomit and Mrs. Buckwalter did not support her as she walked. Ruth Williams Saw Them. Miss Ruth Williams, a stenographer in the governor's office, saw Mrs. West and Mrs. Buckwalter after their visit to the governor's private office.

Glad Hand Given at Every Town Along Route. fJOHTH GEfJTBJtL KlflSilS HAPPY Great Country Traveled Over by Business Men. Band Played Three Hundred Selections En Route. The second annual -trade trip of the Topeka Commercial club through north-central .Kansas was officially ended at 8:40 o'clock Thursday night at the Rock Island station when 50 local business men. tired and rather wilted in appearance, formed in a cir cle around Marshall's band while "Home, Sweet Home" was' played. The trip was adjudged a success; -35,000 people saw the men from the capital city. The towns along the route went out of their way to provide entertain ment for the Topekans. "The object of the trip was accom plished. The-local business men on the train became acquainted with the peo ple of 56 towns in the rich agricultural counties through which they traveled, covering nearly 700 miles. No goods were offered for sale; the- purpose was to create a friendly feeling for To peka. Some of those who went on the trip had never seei- so many automo biles in their lives. The towns and the country districts are full of them. Time after time he visitors were met at the j stations with motor cars, and taken around the towns and in the outskirts where, a good view of the surround- i ing country could be had. I Trip an Eye Opener. The trip served at as eye opener to the Topeka business men. Many of them remarked in the last lap Of the journey that they had not before realized in what a great state they were living. The fields of tall waving wheat were nothing short of wonder ful. In places there was wheat noth-' ing but n-heat as far as the eyes could i reach. And the fields of alfalfa, too should not be forgotten. The corn, j iiur uii vvnuiv uui mi i&r Huviint-ca as that in Shawnee county, is in ex cellent condition. To make a long story short "everybody Is happy" in north central Kansas. A spirit, of optimism prevails, and business Is more brisk as a result of the great crop prospects. Good Time at McFarland. The reception at McFarland, the last stop of the trip, was enthusiastic. The members of the:tarty were tired and hungry after three days of travel. The dinner provided- at the Modoc was "fit to set before a king." A pleasing in cident of the dinner was the distribu tion of the home edition of the State Journal at 6:30 o'clock, just after the Topekans had seated themselves at the tables. Verne Eagen had made the run to McFarland in record time on his motorcycle for -the express purpose of giving the trade trippers an opportun ity of reading the news of the day including the trip as far as Herington at the supper table. The people at McFarland said it waa as good as having a circus come to town to receive a visit from the men from the capital city. Time after time the band played. A drum corps proces sion was formed in which the pretty waitresses of The Modoc took part. Scores of the McFarland citizens were initiated into the Order of High Jump ers. And there was certainly much merriment and high jumping. It might be interesting to note in passing that the band played at least three hundred, selections on the trip, marched in a score of parades and played at every station. Initiated Into Order. City dignitaries, prominent citizens citizens and farmers all the line ap proximately five hundred of them were captured and taken by force into the baggage car where they were ini tiated into the mysteries of the Order of High Jumpers. One of the liyest little towns visited on the trip Is Latimer, with a popula tion of 100. This village which amount ed to nothing at all four years ago is now prospering. At the station cards were distributed giving the things of which Latimer boasts and they aire many. The town is in a rich farming locality, in Morris county. White City Procession. At White City a procession was form ed, and the visitors marched up town. They were taken back to the train in automobiles. A. R- Wallace, a banker, was head of the reception committee. The big platform at the Dwight sta tion could not accommodate the crowd. The Dwight band played. There are 300- people in the town and most of them were at the station. At Alta Vista there were 400 per sons at the Alta Vista station. The W. C. T. U. furnished the Topekans with pans! -js. The entire- population of Volland turned out to meet the special. O. W. Little and B. V. Curry of the Alma Commercial club headed a dele gation that met the excursionists. R. E. Lewis and H. W. Bouck, proprie tors of the Alma Signal, were at the train.

OIJLETTEII In Schumann-Helnk's Suit for Divorce, Much Depends On a Translation Which J Questioned by Her Husband. Chicago, June 6. Accuracy of the trans lation of a letter written in German by William Rapp. Jr.. to his wife Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, the prima donna, was expected to figure prominent ly today in the trial of the singer's suit for divorce. The letter written by Rapp, a year ago, offered to allow Mme. Schumann-Heink to obtain her freedom with out opposition. It was introduced in evi dence Thursday and Rapp protested that it had been improperly translated. In the proceedings Mme. Schumann Heink accuses Rapp of infidelity, nam ing a New York woman. Rapp Is a law yer, and son of the late William Rapp. editor in chief of the Chicago Staats Zeltung. On cross-examination by Rapp's at torney, who was frequently prompted by Rapp himself, she engaged in several clashes. "What are you doing now at your Chi cago home?" the attorney asked. "Oh, I help to clean up and wash and scrub and cook," and mad am e gestured with her hands, "and do whatever work there is to do." "You mean to say you scrub and cook?" asked Rapp's lawyer. The opera singer turned an amused smile on him. "Yes." she said. "Why not?" "How old is your oldest son?" was one of the questions put to the singer by Rapp's attorney. "Twenty-nine," she answered. "Do you know when he was born?" asked the attorney. "Why, yes." said madame slowly, as she paused for meditation. "I think yes, I'm sure it was on his birthday." Judge Sullivan rapped for order and further inquiry about Schumann-Helnk's children was dropped." Extra seats were placed in Judge Sullivan's court room today. All fore noon the spectators. nore than half ot them women, sat or fidgeted while the court and counsel 'were in secret con ference in chambers. Mrs. Schumann-Heink is under con tract to appear at the Wagnerian festi val at Beyreuth. Germany, June 15, and the conference is said to have con cerned propositions, including night ses sions to hasten the court proceedings. The singer says she must sail not later than next Tuesday. The deposition of William Naples, a detective, was read. Naples said he followed and' watched Rapp during the month of February, 1913, and on num erous occasions he saw Rapp in com pany with Mrs. Catherine Dean of New York. He said he had seen Rapp enter the woman's apartments late at night and early in the morning. JOHNSON TO FIGHT. Promoters Deposit Record Guarantee To Meet Longford. London, June 6.

Washington, June 5. John Early, the leper placed under restraint by the dis trict authorities, when he revealed his identity at the fashionable Shoreham hotel, after a two daya residence there, told the story of how he moved freely about in the best hotels and restau rants, rode in company with former Governor-General Grey and his family of Canada, on a Canadian Pacific train from Vancouver to Montreal, and rode up on a Shoreham elevator rubbing" el bows with Vice President Marshall on Monday. Perfectly contented he moved about the narrow grounds of the Laser house on the Potomac, examining the roses he planted there six years ago, and talked of bis dream of a national leperosarium, which he claims was the sole motive of .his return t the national capital. "I know I am a leper now," he said half wistfully. "I am resigned to my own fat. My wife and children have left me, I am alone in the world. My doom does not terrify me. But I want my case to serve as a great national example and bring about the proper treatment of unfortunates afflicted as I am.

Too Late to Stop This Year Prepare for Next. Manhattan, Kan.. June 5. That the Hessian fly is doing considerable dam age to the wheat crop in the eastern half of the state, is the report made by experts sent out recently by the Kansas State Agricultural college. Gen erally speaking, the western half of the state has not been infested by the pests. Professor George A. Dean of the en tomology department of the college ays that it Is necessary that the farmers of the eastern half of the state employ methods to fight the fly, or the damage will be much greater next season. He also calls attention of the farmers in the west-central part of the state that they had bet ter put forth as great an effort to combat the evil as possible, in order to prevent it spreading several coun ties further west next spring. There is nothing to be done to pre vent the fly doing damage this year. Professor Dean says. In fact, most of this year's damage has already been Inflicted. The amount of the damage will not be known until a few days of harvest, however. It is for the purpose of aiding the Kansas farmer in getting rid of the fly now for the protection of the 1915 crop, that Professor Dean and J. W. McCullough have prepared the follow ing Interesting bulletin, "The Hessian Fly Situation in Kansas," which will be off the press some time this month. SCHOOL WENT TO THEM Forty Immigrant Factory Girls Were Taught to Read. Washington, June 5. Charles S. Mel len's recent testimony that he, as presi dent of the New Haven Hartford rail road, allowed himself to be indicted in the Grand Trunk case to shield the late J. P. Morgan, was denied before the In terstate commerce commission by Louis Cass Ledyard, of New York, a director of the New Haven at the time. "I want to say in the most unqualified terms," Mr. Ledyard said, "that Mr. Mellen did not offer himself as a vicar ious sacrifice for Mr. Morgan." Telling of the letter in regard to the Grand Trunk investigation, to the United States district attorney at New York, written by Mr. Mellen, in the presence of E. D. Bobbins, counsel for the New Haven, and himself, Mr. Ledyard said: "That letter was not the letter of a man accepting responsibility. It was the letter of a man claiming innocence." f in Raleigh. N. C. June 5. Secretary of Commerce Redfleld, in a speech here before the Chamber of Commerce, dis cussed business conditions throughout the country. In part, he said: "If we would place the business at mosphere of the country on a sort of commercial weather map such as is used by the weather service we should find a curious condition. In the extreme southeast and southwest would be areas where the business barometer is high. All through the great central part of the country, where the bulk of our wheat is grown, would be another great area of fair weather and high pressure. Over the great cotton areas of the South would be no depression, not even unsettled conditions, but a normal look ing for great agricultural favors ex pected to come. High- barometer also prevails where automobiles are made in and about the Lake area. Over the northeastern states would be found a section of low barometer and marked depression. If the state of mind of the different parto of our country could be shaded in colors, the great body of the West would be white, while an area of dull gray would represent our north eastern states. As to the Facts. "It is true that a psychological de pression is none the less a depression because it is psychological. We may, therefore, fairly look into other con ditions to see whether the mental state that exists has a justification in solid fact. "It is true, is it not, as one looks over the country that all the condi tions upon which sound business should rest exist in full force and vigor? Few will contend that mer chants are overstocked. Rather is the reverse true. None are so rash as to say overspecu'lation exists. Nay, on the contrary, the brokers complain of lack of commissions. Money is not so scarce that banks refuse legitimate borrowers. The reverse is true. We have sent large sums abroad of late without cramping our financial re sources. It comes to me from more than one quarter of the country that men who are pessimistic in speech are prosperous in pocket. Things are not tied up tight when New York reg isters more automobiles than ever be fore and when that great industry is pushed to the full. Apostles of Evil. "If you and I ge away from the crowded centers of our middle and eastern states where mental mourn ing exists for conditions that can nev er -return since the day of mastery is over and commerce must henceforth be a servant if, I say. we get away from these centers into which the light is breaking but, which it has not yet fully illuminated, we shall find a different atmosphere. From far-off California and from Florida; from the fields of Oklahoma and Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska comes the glad cry of a harvest all but ripe for the sickle. There was no mourning in the orange groves of California when I saw them in March, and Florida utters no cry of distress in sending 23,000 carloads of her fruit to market. "It is a small and pitiful thing that men should expect to reap political profit out of magnifying evils. How ever, the too willing howls of the apostles of evil are so obvious as well as so previous as to be on the whole more humorous than harmful. They make the judicious grieve but they bring no anxiety to the thoughtful." HOLTON MAN ATHEAD REFUSEJO WORK Three Thousand Employees of Westlnghouse Go on Strike.

They also announced that employees of the Westing-house Machine Company and the PiUsburg Meter Company, corporations whose plants are in that vicinity, would also be called upon to strike. Soon after daybreak employees of the electric company began to assemble at the works and when seven o'clock came fully ten thousand persons were there. Leaders of the union passed through the crowd distributing hand bills which urged the men ,and women to refrain from going to, work. A hundred or more persons were stationed along streets leading to the plant, and work ers were personally solicited to Join the strike. Many employees, however, entered the factory preparatory to be ginning the day's work. The strikers committee of 25 immedi ately gained entrance to the plant, de termined, they said, to bring out those who had gone to work. There was no disorder, the strikers marching to the Turtle Creek play grounds were admonished by their lead ers to be quiet. Thte strike at the plants of the ma chine company and the meter works were scheduled for 8 o'clock when the forces report for' duty.

THE TO?aSA DAILY CTA73 JOUniTAL FTHDAY laVUZlll'O JUKI! 5 1514. IN SIXTH DISTRICT Farmers Union Holds Picnic Hear Russell Many There." Hake Trip in Automobile Signs of Prosperity. Russell. Kan., June 5. The South west Farmers' Union Picnic association of Russell county- has held its second annual picnic.1 More than 700 people at tended. It was held in the Philip Schmidt grove, ten miles from Russell. Almost all of the farmers came in autos, showing; that they are getting on Easy street in Russell county. The entire distance from town, going one road and returning on another, in all more than 20 miles, the country showed up like a panorama with large houses and roomy barns, and thousands of acres of wheat that will be in the handa of the harvesters about the 25th of the month. Thousands of acres of wheat bowed up that will yield from 25 to 35 bushels an acre. The grove is known as Big Creek, a stream that seldom goes dry. It con tains about two acres, the trees afford ing good shade. P. J. SchJ-iitt owns the quarter section on which the grove is located. He has resided here for more than a quarter of a century. His wheat, 100 acres, is first class. William G. Bwanson of Marshall county, state or ganizer and lecturer of the Farmers' Union, addressed' the crowd. Russell county has more than 25 lo cal unions, and the farmers report their organization in this county in a healthy and growing condition. It was the privilege of the hungry State Journal reporter to eat with the family of Win. Ringeison and their married children. At this table, spread under the trees in the grove, more than 100 men, women and children ate their fill, and there was plenty left over to satisfy as many more. Wm. Ringeison came to Russell coun ty from Philadelphia in 1872. One dozen children, 11 girls and a boy, have been born to this happy couple, several of them now married and their pleasant families were present. He served four years and three months in the Civil war, his first en listment being in the 21st Pennsyl vania infantry; his next regiment was 5th Pennsylvania cavalry, and later served in the Sd U. S. V. V. The Rin geisons own considerabl3 land not only in Russell and Ellis counties but elsewhere in other states. They are successful farmers, business men and good citizens. AGED PRISONER INSANE.

Melvln, the man who- dynamited the saloons at Iola ten years ago and for which he was sent to the Kansas state penitentiary, has ben released that he might go home to die. Relatives from Iola came to Lansing and accompanied the aged man to his former home. Melvin was brought to the prison nine years ago. Brooding over his troubles, his mind soon weakened -and for the past several years he has been hopelessly insane. The condition of Melvin was brought to the attention of the state board of correction and the board acted on Mr. Botkin's renommendationcthat-'Melvin be released. It is thought the aged man can live but a few weeks. on power of one hundred Horsepower t and upward, would make the board I self sustaining.

Emporia, Kan., June 5. H. L. Popcnoe, farm assistant, who has Just finished a trip over north Lyon coun ty, says that the army worms are in the wheat, alfalfa, com and grass fields, and as soon as they strip one field they move on to the next. They cut the leaves off the wheat and strip the grass .-talks bare. There are several means for fight- ing the pests. If the spots are small. the worms may be crushed by the use of a heavy roller. Where they are more extensive, the poison bran must be used. Mr. fopenoes recipe is 20 pounds of bran and 1 sound of Paris green, mixed dry; 2 quarts of syrup ana t lemons in i gallons or. water; moisten the bran with this mixture and sow it broadcast. The poison should be spread at evening, and care should be taken not to put It out too near houses, where chickens or other domestio animals can get it. "BILLY" MORGAN OPTIMISTIC. Responds to Toast at Fraternity Baa. quel Talks Harvest. Kansas City, Mo., June 5. Optimism over the outlook for crops in Kansas was voiced by W. Y. Morgan, editor of the Hutchinson, Kan., News, who spoke here at a banquet given to graduate members of the Phi Gamma Delta fra ternity. Mr. Morgan said the greatest problem now in Kansas was to get hands to harvest the crops,- but he pre dicted the help would come when needed. "The railroads are winking at the practice of stealing rides since pros pects for big crops developed and men are swarming from all parts of the continent to the wheat fields," Mr. Morgan said. "Fifty thousand extra hands will be required. Thousands of small town laborers, working for a dol lar and a half a day, will be attracted by the higher harvest wages." CAUGHT ARM IN WRINGER.

The election resulted in the choice of Mrs. S. S. Estey as president. Mrs. Estey is the wife of the Rev. Dr. Estey of the First Presbyterian church, and while she has been identified with club work since she came to Topeka, she has been so much occupied with duties that came to her as the wife of the pastor of one of the large churches of the city, that she has not previously un dertaken to fill an office in the federa tion. Tho nominating committee, with Mrs. Clement Smith as chairman, upon the refusal of Mrs. Albrecht Marburg, the former president, to serve a second term, decided on Mrs. Estey for the place, considerlne her a person or marked executive ability, experience in Dranlzation work, with a wide acquaint ance, ability as a speaker and leader, and a woman of charming presence.

It was decided that nine meetings, instead of five of the federation should be held during the season, so that the board of management might be relieved of some of the duties that necessarily fell to it, with the infrequent meetings of the year past. It was voted also that a membership, not renewed immediate- Mra. S. S. Estey, Newly Elected Presi dent of the Topeka Federation of Women. ly at Its expiration, might be extended upon the recommendation of the board of management; the reason being that in case of illness or absence from the city, a member might be unable to pay her fee on the date it was due. It was further decided that delegates to the district and state and national federa tion meetings should be chosen by the board of management, instead of by the president, as formerly. Another proposed change in the constitution provides that the standing committees of property, club house and nomina tions, should have a representation in the board of management, through the committee heads. It will be necessary to vote on the amendment at the next meeting, since it was first presented at the meeting Thursday. Mrs. J. K.

She drew a clever word pic ture of conditions in a town where they have open saloons, and praised the law of Kansas that make such conditions impossible. Reports were made by the outgoing of ficers and heads of departments. Mrs. Marburg, the retiring president, told of the work of the past year, when she had attended 44 federation meetings, had called special meetings for the con sideration of the market house and other public matters, of visitors to pub lic offices, and of innumerable consul tations on various affairs. Mrs. O. L. Moore, the retiring sec retary, reported an increase of mem bership in the organization to 167 paid-up members, and six honorary members. Mrs. H. O. Garvey, first vice president, spoke briefly of at tendance at meetings, and of the con tagion of enthusiasm that had been caught by the members of the board from their president. The treasurer. Mrs. George Fritchard, reported on the scholarship fund for Washburn college, telling of assistance given to college girls through the fund, and a part of the, fund returned by one of the graduates who had been helped through school.
