More than 1,000 letters, telegrams and telephone calls have been re ceived by Governor Hodges congratu lating him on his victory in the dam age suit brought by Mrs. Luella West. From all sections of Kansas ana iruui friends and acquaintances beyond the borders of the state, the governor has received congratulatory greetings. Within an hour after the jury had returned its verdict messages began to pour into Topeka and the long dis tance telephone in the governor's of fice was busy most of the day. Friends In Wichita, the home of Mrs. West and Mrs. Buckwalter, were among the first to send greetings to the Democratic governor. Late Saturday night, the governor asked the telephone com panies to withhold until morning all congratulatory messages.

A championship trophy and medal, the president's cup, the vice president's cup, the secretary's cup, the directors' cup and the Brock cup and medal for team play, are up for competition. Omaha, Denver, St. Louis, Minneapolis and St. Paul have sent the largest dele gations. However, almost every city in the middle west is represented. Harry G. Legg, of Minneapolis, rec ord breaking winner of the tournament, was the favorite to finish at the head of the list this year, according to R. W. Hodge, secretary of the association. Legg -won the championship four years in succession and failed to play last year. He was paired today with E. K. Morrison, Kansas City champion, one of the best players in the middle west J. C.

CRY FOR MOTORS When Kansas Harvests Her Wheat Crop, Look Out! Gasoline Smell on Every Coun try Boad This Tear. "Joe" Longshore, former state oil inspector, had the unique experience last week of being water bound in the usually arid region -of Seward county on a trip when he went through four or five railroad accidents in quick suc cession, all of them traceable to the unusual rainfall .with which south western Kansas has been visited in the past fortnight. "Farmers in southwestern Kansas don't know what to do with the kind of wheat they are going to have this year and they have more trouble in sight than they ever dreamed of, try ing to harvest it with header boxes. They are used to harvesting wheat that stands about eight inches high but this year it is solid all over the country higher than a man's waist, and in spite of all the rains they have been getting it is standing straight nn maturing finely. "Kansas isn't by itself in its pros pects for a big yield of wheat. I have traveled all the way from southern Oklahoma to Dakota and the condi tions are the same everywhere. Ne braska wheat is just as good as that in Kansas and the alfalfa looks even better. When this state gathers in its wheat there'll be a cry for automo biles in western Kansas such as was never heard before." The Day In Congress. Washington. June 8.

The principal drive will be over the Red Line from Topeka to Beloit. leaving Beloit Sun day morning, the governor and his party will drive by automobile to Nor ton, where the executive win speak at the dedication of the state's new tuber culosis i-initarium. That the trip will be one of the most important highway drives In Kansas this year, is indicated by the unusual interest which has been shown by mo tor car owners along the Red Line. F. L. Davidson of Glasco, president of trail association, has been flooded with requests for schedules and the itinerary and schedule for the trip has just been completed. About 15 stops will be made in the run over the Red Line and it is the purpose of the men in charge of the trip to demonstrate that the highway is a veritable race track. On Fast Time Schedule. The schedule calls for fast time all the way from Topeka to Beloit. From Be loit to Norton, it is probable tnat out few if any stops will be made. Leav (Continued on page 3.) UP TO HIGH COURT Constitutionality of Corpora tion Law Is Appealed. State's Bevenue of $150,000 Is Still at Stake. Constitutionality of the Kansas cor poration tax law was checked up to (he supreme court today in an appeal taken from the First division of the Shawnee county district court. The original case was brought by attorneys for the Frisco and Kansas City, Fort Scott Memphis railways. Judge Dana sustained a demurrer filed by the state and directed toward the amend ed petition of the plaintiff corpora tions. The corporation tax law was en acted by the 1913 legislature to pro vide at least a portion of the revenue which the state lost when it repealed the inheritance tax law. Under the new law, which became operative this year, the state realized something like $150,000. Several payments were made under protest and during the last hours of collection, suit to enjoin the enforcement of the law, was filed by the two railroads. It was charged in the petitions of the plaintiff corpora tions that the law was unconstitution al and provided for a double taxation. eld;? to state ccz:isso Shorn, of Much Power Over Interstate Hallways. Authority of the National Body Greatly Increased. 1 Washington, 'June 8. The supreme court today upheld the Interstate com merce commission's orders In the Shreveport rate case -thus placing In terstate railways more under the com mission and less under state commis sions. Justice Hughes' announced the court's decision. He spoke of the un restricted power of the interstate com merce commission over interstate commerce, saying the commission was expressly created to prevent conflict ing state legislation. Justice Hughes pointed out that congress and not the states had the power to prevent the Instruments of interstate commerce from being used so as to injure interstate commerce. He quoted the cases under the safety appliance law and the second federal employers' liability law, sup porting the power of congress to keep the channels of Interstate commerce clear. Referring to the noted Minnesota rate case. Justice Hughes said that de cision was expressly reserved in those cases, as to what the outcome would have been had the interstate com merce commission found that the Minnesota rates discriminated against Interstate commerce. History of the Case. The fight for better rates for Shreveport jobbers into Texas prom ised from the start to establish a pre cedent governing the future trade of cities along state boundaries. So im portant was the matter deemed to be that the Louisiana railroad commis sion itself initiated the contest before the interstate commerce commission in behalf of the jobbers along the Louisiana-Texas border. The Louisiana commismtuii com plained to the interstate commerce commission in March, 1911, that the class rates charged by the railroads (Continned from page 2.) FQRTraECKS.

Forty schooners were wrecked and twenty or more fishermen lost their lives in the storm that swept the coast of northern New Brunswick and Chaleurs bay, last Fri day night. Nearly all the boats were blown ashore on Miscou and Ship- pegan islands, remote points from which the news came slowly. Eight bodies were recoverd and taken to Caraquet, N. B., today.- All were bodies of French, Canadian and Acadian fishermen. Property along the coast and in Chaleurs bay was damaged by tne storm. FRANKENSTEIN Kansas Would Be Without Gov ernment Protection. No Formal Word Heard at Fed eral Headquarters Topeka. Washington, June 8. President Wilson today nominated Otho T. Wood of Liberal, Kansas, for United States marshal or the district of Kansas, The president's appointment of Wood may or may not be the final chapter of a long drawn out fight over the appointment of the Seward coun ty Democrat as successor to "Jack" Harrison. Several months ago, Har rison's resignation was sought that the patronage might go to the string of the Democratic United States sena tor. But Wood's appointment drew fire from the opposition and it has been claimed that Senator BristoWwill seek to hold up his confirmation In the senate. One dispatch from Washington to day states that President Wilson has summarily removed Marshal Harri son. No confirmation of this report has been received In Topeka and no such news has come to the United States marshal's office. In event Harrison's office should be declared vacant, the regular proced ure would be for Judge Pollock to make temporary appointment of a marshal to serve until Harrison's suc cessor was confirmed and qualified. If the removal order should prove true, Kansas is this afternoon without a United States marshal and both Har rison and his deputies and employees are off the government's payroll with out authority to serve papers or act in any official capacity. Whether Senator Bristow will con tinue his hostile attitude toward Wood now that his appointment has gone to the senate is not stated in. to day's dispatches. Sometime ago it was reported that charges might be filed against Wood in event of his ap pointment by the president and that the senior United States senator would seek to hold up the Liberal man's con firmation. Wood Was Not Surprised. The newly nominated United States marshal has been in Topeka for a number of days as It has been known that announcement of his nomination was pending. He left this afternoon, on-business at .Kansas City. Otho T. Wood has been a resident of Seward county for 28 years, is ranch man and former sheriff of that county. His family resides at Liberal but he owns a feed business at Hugoton which is conducted by his oldest son. "I have had no formal notice of the sending In of my name," said he this afternoon. "Although I have expected for several days that such notice might come at any time. This thing has dragged along for a long time. In fact, it has been in sight since 1912, but I have realized that political pre ferment of this sort is too uncertain for me to allow myself much enthusiasm over the prospect. Senator Thompson has steadily worked in my behalf and I consider that my nomination, if it has been made as the reports indicate, is due directly to his consistent fight. congressman Neeley, I believe, at one time had a candidate for the ap pointment, but he has been on my side since the first of the year.

The pretence In Washington of John Early, the alleged leper, was the immediate cause of the introduction of the bill. had no political significance and was not started or assisted In by any mem bers of the Democratic delegation. "My appointment has been deferred too much to permit me to make any plans as to the appointment of depu ties. I can not say anything on that point now." The deputies on the staff of United States Marshal J. R. Harrison, who will go out with him, are B. F. Flenl ken and U. E. Meade of Topeka, P. C. Hessen of Fort Scott and D. D. Leahy of Wichita. Marshal Harrison has not yet re ceived any notification of the pros pective change in his office. MOB AGAINST KOD British Public Shows Besent ment Against Suffragettes. Pelts Women Orators With To matoes and Other Missiles. London, June 8. Public anger, In connection with the militant suffragette outrages. Is expressed daily with more vehemence throughout Great Britain. Reports from the provinces show that suffragette meetings organized Sunday generally were broken up and the women threatened with violence. At Ilford, some miles east of London, the speakers were pelted with tomatoes and other missiles and an unsuccessful attempt was made by the crowd under the leadership of a woman, to upset the wagon from which the suffragettes were speaking. The' orators escaped into the residence of the local leader of the militant society and the crowd afterward pelted the house with stones and broke every window in the place. Guns and Dogs on Guard. London, June 8. The guardians of ancient structures in all parts of the country have adopted the most strin gent precautions to protect the build ings against the vandalism of the mil itant suffragettes. Guns and dogs have been requisitioned for this ser vice. Two men armed with rifles and accompanied by two bull dogs have been placed on guard In the grounds of the historic priory at Christ's cnurcn, Hampshire, which dates from the twelfth century. This plan Is also being adopted at other places. -Bio Peace for the Kins;. London, June 8. Another demon stration by a militant suffragette in the presence of King George and Queen Mary occurred at the interna tjpnal horse show at Olympia this aft ernoon. Their majesties had hardly sat down when a young woman rose In the stalls opposite and screamed denunciations of forcible feeding of suffragette pris oners. The police pounced upon her, but her ejection from the building was effected only after a fierce struggle). "No peace for King George or Queen Mary," is the latest order given out by headquarters staff of the mili tant suffragettes and their followers now allow few appearances of their majesties in. public to pass without some kind of demonstration.

Washington, June Huerta has decided after all not to blockade Tam pleo and force the hand of the Unit ed States with the possibility of dis rupting the mediation proceedings at Niagara Falls. Mr. Rlano, the Span ish ambassador, notified Secretary Bryan officially to that effot today. This step was taken upon the gov ernment's learning that the media tors at Niagara Falls were taking some action in regard to the move ments of the steamer AntUla. report ed to. have sailed from an American port with arms for the constitutional ists and also to prevent a setback In the peace negotiations. It was offi cially stated that the Mexican govern ment In ordering the blockade of Tampico had. no Intention of interfer ing with commercial traffic. Its in tention was only to prevent the eon stitutionalists from receiving and ammunition. Thus, the latest crisis In the situation fraught with possibilities of renewed hostiuties between Huerta ana the United States passed over. Tension Is Relieved. What actuated Huerta In backing down does not appear in the brief ad vices which reached Washington. Un official reports that the dictator had de cided at the last moment to rescind hi order of blockade had reached unoffi cial sources which have been In close touch with the situation about the same time Mr. Rlano was notifying Secretary Bryan. Instantly there was an evl- dence of relief of the tension of the last three days along the line In offi cial circles. There were broad intima tions here that the influence which had caused Huerta to rescind his order had gone to Mexico City all the way from Niagara Falls where, it was said, the mediators and the Mexican dele- gates. had-.been urging Jam in tne strongest possible terms to withdruw his position and.Jst -the. mediation proceeds i It did not appear -here that Huerta'S change of position had been contin- gent upon any change of plans for the cargo of the steamer AntUla steaming for Tampico, with arms for the con stitutionalists. It had been suggested that possibly pressure upon the own ers of the ship might cause them 1 to divert her. One thing was plain. President Wilson was determined that Tampico should, be. kept open to the commerce of the world and the Amer ican ships under Rear Admiral Mayo were in evident readiness to enforce It. Whether the AntUla war cargo would have been considered as com- -merce had the situation come to the point of a break, all officials here de cline to say. The gunboats Zaragoza and Bravo should have arrived at Tampico about 6 o clock this morning. Followed by the United States ships Sacramento and Tacoma they passed Vera Crus yesterday.

CMEVER SUCCEED, HE SAYS Until Motive Is Found to Arouse Human Effort Which Will Take the Place of Private Ownership. New Harmony, Ind., June 8. Reasons for the failure of experiments in so cialism were discussed by "William H. Taft today. In an address delivered at the centennial celebration of the found ins; of New Harmony. This town prob ably is the most famous of places in the United States where the exponents of Socialistic and community ideas tried to prove the practical value of their the ory. The former president outlined the his tory of these experiments and drew bis conclusions. "The most notable experiment at New Harmony," he said, "that of Robert Owen, failed as all socialism must fall, because it found no substitute for the motive essential to arouse and make constant human effort, that is furnished toy the institution of private property and the shaping; of reward by compe tition and natural economic adjustment. The plan was baaed on the assumption that man was a different being from what he Is. If he were so perfect that his love of human kind would banish from every one in human form, self ishness and retain in him the same en ergy, self-sacrifice and Industry in be half of others that be now manifests In behalf of himself and those near to him. then there would be no need for the organisation of a socialistic com munity because we would have it at hand. Until men are perfect beings of this kind socialism must either consti tute a tyranny so rigid as to destroy not only the right of liberty and to In terfere with the pursuit of happiness, or It must be a failure." Center of Two Experiments. New Harmony, as Professor Taft described It, was the center of two ex periments in socialism, of very differ ent types. The first of these started a hundred years ago by George Rapp, a German mechanic, was In motive pri marily religious. The Rappltes were classed by the speaker with the Shak ers and Zoarites, the communes of Amana, the commune of Bethel and Aurora and the Oneida community. The Rappltes of New Harmony sold out their land to Robert Owen and his partners in 1825. The community Rapp founded was a heterogeneous collection of many different elements. Confusion finally resulted; the various factions asked Owen to exercise his powers as a director until they could reach a satis factory adjustment. Five .or. six different.. constitutions were adopted within two years. Then Owen had an open breach with one of his principal partners over the adoption of the Pestalozzl method of school teaching. The community disintegrated but Owen remained In New Harmony and the family became leaders in the political and social life of the state. "The Owenlte community at New Har mony," said Mr. Taft, "was only one of number of similar communities in augurated to carry out the principles of one social philosopher or another. "Into them entered many noble men and women with high purpose and with the conviction that tho secret of the regeneration of society and the world had been committed to them and was about to be revealed In convincing real isation. Icarian Communities. "A Frenchman, Ettter.ne Cabot, de scribed what he called a voyage In I carta which gave his Ideal of a com munity on a communistic and social istic basis. This led to the attempt tc establish a settlement in Texas, an other one In Illinois, and a third in Iowa, called Icarian communities, but iney, too, fades out. "I shall not stop to discuss socialism iu menu or wnai 11 means. lor It might be difficult to give an accurate definition, so varying are the views of persons wno call themselves Borlnlintx But no one can read the history of these isolated efforts in the direction -of regeneration of society, on a social istic principle and abolition of the prin ciple of private property without a most wholesome lesson. They teach the danger of destroying what we have that Is good In society and that has been tested by time. In order to seek a mil lennium which must rest for its suc cessful achievement on the elimination of all the elements of human nature as wo know It and a reforming of it that Is possible only after hundreds of centuries."

The automobile belonging to Frank Stevens, superintendent of tho city, waterworks department. has a big dent made by a rock shied, by a smalt Topekan. Various complaints bavo been made by drivers and motorists.. They insist that driving on some streets in the city Is made unsafe by the actions of irresponsible youngsters. Boys who delight in- troubling au toists may find themselves sitting on a bench and swirging their feet In the Juvenile court. "Boys who persist to these annoy ances will be prosecuted." said the mayor today. GREETINGS TO THE GOVEIOn (Continued From Page One.) probable that some drastic legislation affecting damage suits will be offered In the next legislative session. Several men, among them lawyers, have In the last week advocated radical changes in the present statutory provisions regu lating damage suits and the taking of testimony of the so-called "privileged" class. One of the plans submitted is for the creation of a board of commission of three members appointed by the dis trict judge and county commissioners to examine into the merits of all cases that in any manner look suspicious. Unless this commission found that, there was sufficient evidence upon which to base a suit, further action would be barred on recommendation of the commission. Then there is the "privileged" testi mony question that came to light in the West-Hodges case. A good many per sons who attended the trial last week, left the court room feeling that changes in the law regulating the admission of testimony of doctors and lawyers would improve conditions and remove some of the criticism from the courts and state legislatures. Several changes in legal procedure, as provided in the civil code, have been suggested as a result of the trial last week and it is believed by many people that after the 1916 legis lative session a repetition of the West Hodges case will be impossible under the proposed statutes regulating the filing of damage suits. Soma of the Expressions. Following are extracts from some of the early letters and telegrams con gratulating Governor Hodges on result of his suit: Washington, D.

CRITICAL PERIOD OF STQE Much Depends on Action of the Foreign Element. Fifty Special Policemen Placed on Doty. Are Pittsburg. Pa-. June 8. Hemmed In on every side by pickets, the great plant of the Westinghouse- Electric A Manufacturing company was closed tight today. Those of the working force who had not Joined the Alle gheney Congenial Industrial union, in its fight for changed working condi tions, did not report this morning and only an occasional guard could be seen from the street. Strikers began to gather early for the parade and mass meeting sched uled for 11 o'clock, while Miss Bridget Kenny, secretary of the union and real leader, gathered the committee for a final conference. This was pay day and was looked upon as the crit ical period of the strike. Committeemen openly said that if the foreign element In their ranks did not return to work when they were paid this afternoon there was no rea son to believe they would suffer from desertions in the near future. Fifty special policemen were on duty in East Pittsburg and Turtle Creek and the streets of both boroughs were thronged wiin singers. I. C. C. IS UPHELD. (Con tinned From Page On0 for transportation in a westerly direc tion from Shreveport to points in Texas were unjustly discriminatory in that they were much greater than the rates contemporaneously charged for the transportation of like traffic irom Dallas, and Houston, In Texas, to the same points. They complained, in substance, that a trade wall had been erected around Texas and that outside jobbers were not permitted to enter into the enclosed field. No Denial aMde. The Houston.' East and West Texas Railway company and the Texas and Pacific Railway company did not deny the discrimination, but answered that the Shreveport rates were reasonable In themselves, and that the Texas rates were not voluntary but were prescribed by the Texas Railroad commission. The Interstate commerce commission issued an order, holding that an unjust dis crimination existed and directed the railways either to lower the interstate rate froms Dallas and Houston to other Texas points, so as to remove this discrimination. The railways vainly naeavorea to induce court to enjoin the EH" oraer. A Point of Contention. One of the principal points of conten tion in the case was whether this was a voluntary or an involuntary discrimina tion by the railways against Shreve port The railways contended that it was involuntary because they were di rected by the Texas railroad commis sion to put into force the low Texas rates. For each higher rate charged, the railroads contended they would be liable under Texas law for a $5,000 pen alty to the state, and from 8125 to 1500 to the shipper. Iu addition a fine of 85,000 might be forthcoming for failing to obey an order of. the state railroad commission. The government, on the other hand. contended that the Texas rates were voluntary because the railways had not appealed to any court or commission to have the Texas rates set aside. Another contention was whether the interstate commerce laws were so Queen Eleonora and Crown Prince Boris of Bui garia to Visit Panama-Pacific Exposition Soon fsHAT. tnatMA nf interfering with 1 cine International JSXpostuon, tne naisan wars navve p acted interest on the part of the southern -European nations Is the hwi bmna-ht by Cohrin B.

TIIC TOPCHA DAILY CTAT2 JOTJIUTAIt IIOHDAY CVCITII7Q, JUI7Z3 1, 1914L NOT QUITESO DAD With True Hospitality, Kaws Passed Guests the Last One. But Saturday Game Was Filed In the Home Refrigerator. THEY ARE A HARD LOT Those Ham Patterson Pill Panishers From Missouri. SCHUMANN-HEINK SAYS IP SHE GETS FREE THIS TIME SHE WONT WED AGAIN At Least Gear's Patriots Found Them Hard to Trim. Although the Household Words lost the Sabbath day game, they did it in a mild, Inoffensive way. Old Man Luck gave the visitors the buried ace. The performance was staged before a goodly audience, including some who had not consulted their pastors about it. There was no room for a herd of mules to romp around over the stand without stepping on a taxpayer. In fact, the congregation was large enough to satisfy a visiting bishop or a chautauaua lecturer. Ana tne au dience crave about all the support per mitted by the rules of the game, which do not permit an audience to go out and rope the opposing herd. It was a colorless game. Most any game los t by the home team is a colorless game, unless someone shows a streak of yellow The yellow was not visible, so the crowd spent the afternoon in offering words of encouragement, unmixed with reproof. Of course, when Father Ham Pat let slip the wagon tongue he was using for -a bat, and almost gar nered Mr. Lemon, who was reposing on his own twig a dozen yards away. the spectators offered some advice. They invited the St. Joe stork to chase Lemon into a corner ana ao it nsm; to get a gun or an axe; to do several other things. As a substitute for the motions offered. Father Ham struck out. Amone the improvements noticed Sunday, was the up-stage business of the umps. He showed a tendency to keep the game moving, and players who wanted to write a letter to the old home folks after they had been called upon to perform, were request ed to leave a short message with a near friend, and get on the job pron to. The manana business is being gradually eliminated. The idea is ap preciated by the fans. A ball game Is not like a snake, judged by the length thereof. And as for that Saturday game; a few like that will help the street railway company to pay dividends on its investment. When a fan sees a game that is a real contest, he does not avoid the subject of baseball when he gets back to town. And upon his testimonials, others who have re tired on account of disability (disabil ity of the home team), take a new interest In the national outdoor sport and add their voices and four-bit pieces to the good work. When Mr. Gear's happy family gets on the Job with the umps' introduction of batteries and keeps right on the Job until the street cars back up to the front entrance, the crowd has no kick cominff. If they work like they did aSturday. and lose, the Kaw-birdies will not be panned by fans of reason able intelligence. That Saturday in cident boosted the Kaw stock several points, as it was the best game, con sidering the heavy score on both sides, that has been staged In this corner of the universe. It was an opening that favored tho visitors, who purchased a pair at bar gain 'basement prices, and then left some change on the counter. Along about the sixth, Tallion singled and Little Willie Rapps mussed up the field of oats outside the north fence. Ham Pat, the fatherly old fowl from St. Joe, continued to annoy the Kaw pitchers, but his individual efforts ft (':M7 a. ;m-.x;fe A Mme.

Happy Saturday. were not equal to the task of retriev ing what his pitchers lost. The only reason he didn't use six pitchers was that he had but five with him. Mr. Lemon proved fruitful in the seventh, delivering the pinch hit at the psychological moment. The psy chological moment is not fixed by law. It is one of the few things with no city ordinances covering it, and in baseball, the manager of a team is allowed the right to pick it out from a Job-lot assortment of other mo ments. Mr. Gear is rather good on naming the psychological moment, but sometimes he has nothing to cover it. Mr. Lemon proved to be the round peg that fitted the round psy chological hole in that particular game. Incidentally, Mr. Lemon's pinch pinched out in the Sunday game. Someone poured sand in the mechan ism of that psychological combination. A poll of the jury dead astern of the plate results in a verdict against the ump, and a recommendation to the court that he be required to have his windshield tailored to order, in stead of purchasing on the open mar ket at a fire sale. While wearing an ortermoor of the size fitted to paoa, mamma and the twins, he shuts off a major portion of the landscape, and should the pitcher fall in a fit, the news would have to come to the mid dle boxes by special messenger.

Washington, June 8. Democratic senate leaders found themselves con fronted with a parliamentary sit uation today vhich may force them to accept an amendment to the Pan ama tolls exemption repeal, reaffirm ing the soverignty and rights of the V. S. over the canal zone. It was discovered that Senator Norris, Re publican by parliamentary maneuvers and aided ly'a ruling of Vice-President Marshall which some senators say was a tactical error, has forced to a point of vantage his resolution pro viding that nothing in the repeal shall be construed as a surrender by the United States cf its right to exempt coastwise vessels from tolls. Democratic leaders, after canvassing the situation, ere said to have found that the Norria resolution now is in a strategic position where it commands a vote before the repeal bill Itself, or other resolutions pertaining to It, has enough votes in its support to make it dangerous to their program. Con fronted with such a situation Republi can supporters of the Norris resolution say the Democrats are preparing to of fer a resolution of their own sunsian tiallv the same, and that Mr. Norris has oracticallv agreed to accept It. The Norris resolution was offered as a substitute by Senator Simmons two days ago and in an unpruaraea moment wneo no Democrats objected, took its .place of vnntBtrft. Suonorters of the Norris resolu tion say the Democrats they count on for support, will vote against the repeal and that the president's influence is not likely to change the situation. Senator Thompson, Democrat of Kan sas, addressed the senate announcing he did not believe the treaty was violated by the exemption but that he favored the repeal because tne exemption was a buo- Bidy. COMMENCEMENT AT K. TJ. KANSAS FAIRS 1914. Began With Baccalaureate Sermoi Former Kansan Talks. Lawrence, Kan., June 8. The first event of commencement week at the University of Kansas was the delivery of the baccalaureate address in Robin son auditorium Sunday night by Dr. Ambrose White Vernon, pastor of Harvard church at Brookline, Mass. Dr. Vernon is a former Kansan, having been ordained in the ministry at Hia watha, where he was pastor of the Congregational church for three years. Dr. Vernon took as the text of his address the Old Testament parable of the trees of the woods that sought a king to wave over them, finally select ing the thorn-bush because the fruit ful trees refused to leave their ap pointed tasks. He told the graduates that the only real independence was to be found in a life of service and that the seeking after official positions and emoluments for their own sake would develop the characters- of a truckler in the seeker. "The gr ?at man is the servant," said the speaker. "He desires not to be made great by the world but to make the world great. All people that long to wave are brambles, useless cumber ers of the ground. To serve is the thing. We must learn to despise wav ing and rejoice in fruit bearing." The events of Monday and Tuesday will be entertainment features for the alumni and graduates. Sermon of Silence. New York, June 8. "A Sermon of Si lence." by the Rev. Samuel Boult marked the abandonment yesterday of the old Mariners church at Catherine and Madison street near the East river. Mr. Boult who had. been head of the church for the last 25 of its 80 years of existence, explained to the congregation that because of his emo tions he could not trust himself to preach.- Reminiscences by members of the church took the place of the- ser mon; Because -of changes in the neigh borhood the old church building- has been sold and the money will be used in erecting a new structure on a site nearer present haunts of seafaring men of this port.

Manhattan, Kan., June 8. That the rumor that President Henry J.

Hackney, president of the board of administration, imme diately before bis departure. In the letter, which has just been made public here. Doctor Waters writes: "I am today taking leave of tbe in stitution and the work through your generosity and kindness and am merely writing to say good-bye, and to express to you my warmest appreciation of the cordial support you. have given me, and the many, manv wavs in which vou have helped me since you have been on tne board.

Tha State Journal la a member of the Been listed Press and receives the roll day telegraph report of that great Banlsatioa for the exclusive afternoon EmIiHmHm TflfwkL The newe la received tn The State J Ml building over wire for this solo 1 Wheat farmers attention! Now is the time to swat the Hessian fly for A est year. School Is over, oh what fun for the kiddies, but scarcely for the parents f the more mischievous .ones. Psychological hard times have a little fancier sound to them, but' that doesn't relieve the distress they oc casion. Who said President Wilson was los ing his control of congress? Three of his anti-trust bills have gone through the house like shot out of a gun. Secretary of Commerce Redfleld is an apt pupil. He follows the profes sor In declaring that the business de pression Is of the psychological va riety. Why fusa about the hot weather, even if It is as disagreable as It la un seasonable? it's Just the thing to ripen the wheat and make the corn grow. Noting that a Western court has Just decided that a wooden leg is wearing apparel," Puck asys: Under what classification would it put a bone head? Not a few jurors would be likely to hold the shooting of a wife by her husband because she persisted in rearing, a red klmona to be a ease of justifiable assaults Without doubt, ,,tho Californians will insist on characterizing the 80 mile gale that, rampaged recently down their coast as nothing more than a gentle zephyr. Reports now have it that 60,009 men will be needed to help harvest the Kansas wheat crop. But as Mr. O'Brien, the state labor commissioner, suggests they are probably a little too enthusiastic. Individual carelessness was respon sible for the origin of most of the fires that occurred In Kansas during the month of May. Comment and suggestion are unnecessary. They are self-evident. Presumably, President Wilson Is devoting his leisure hours to the con struction of the gibbet on which he promised to hang those who might be responsible for bringing about a busl- depresslon. "Watchful waiting" begets "watch ful waiting." It has permitted Huerta to renew his supply of arms and am munition, and this has so strengthen ed his hands that he now laughs at (ho idea of resigning. With Colonel Roosevelt Just returned Krom a seven months' visit there, it seems a waste of energy for eleven American college professors to pass the summer in South America studying Its governments and peoples. Evidently some of the Spanish newspapers have forgotten that the War which began between Spain and tho United States in 1908 was con cluded In the same year. They seem to think it Is still in progress. Mrs. Percy Pennypacker, president of the General Federation of Women's dubs, declares that while the present women's fashions, or some of them, are inclined to be immodest, they are comfortable. And Mother Eve could have said the same thing about the dress of her day. Sympathy should go out to the St. Joe section of Missouri that is al ready in the thibes of a drought like the one that almost overwhelmed Kansas last year. Isn't it peculiar how tho rain will occasionally persist in staying away from one particular locality that ordinarily gets all it needs? Contributions from, private sources are being made to a toad that is to be used la a campaign to enforce the law against cigarette smoking by minora If the legislature had only Inserted a provision in this law granting a bounty for Its enforcement in lino with pro visions In the prohibitory, law, such a campaign would probably be unneces sary. It does seem, though, that all laws should bo rigidly enforced even if they do aot provide some extra re muneration for some of the officers who are charged with their admin- MUCH ILLNESS NEEDLESS. On the ground that Illness In this country Is causing .huge economic losses, mounting every year Into hun dreds of millions of dollars, the Asso ciation of Life Insurance1 Presidents at its recent meeting was urged to aid in a movement for a comprehensive system of reporting cases of sickness throughout the different states along the lines that deaths are now re ported. It was declared that much of the illness of today, is needless and that the first step in prevention must bo accurate knowledge as to the oc currences 'of sickness. The recom mendation was made by Dr. Louis "L Dublin, a life insurance statistician' of New York City. A model law to provide for such reports has been prepared by the con ference of state and 'territorial health authorities in conjunction with the United States public health service. An effort is being made to Interest large business and industrial concerns in the movement, principally on the ground of the resulting economic benefit to them. Besides, it is pointed out that any reduction of economic loss will, without" additional effort, or expense. bring concurrently a vast reduction in social loss, including physical suffer- i Ing, dependency, lack of education and training and other results of ill ness that lower the standard of fam ily and community life.' "The life saving campaigns of the last few decades have borne fruit," said Dr. Dublin in his recommenda tion. "The death rate has been low ered and the average span of life cor respondingly lengthened. Deaths from certain causes, especially typhoid fever, smallpox, the infectious dis eases of childhood, and tuberculosis have been reduced. The amount of sickness, on the other hand, has not been controlled to any appreciable de gree. There Is still too much sick ness among ua Indeed, there are those who, with some authority, main tain that 1 Illness has actually In creased In spite of all the saving in mortality.' The next twenty years must, therefore, see our activities in health work directed specially to the control of disease. If we avail our selves of our present knowledge of sanitary science, we can reduce the incidence of illness fully as much as we have already cut down our death rates. "The basis for any campaign against sickness must be an accurate knowl edge pf its prevalence. Just as the reduction of mortality is furthered by "a complete registration 6f deaths and their causes, so our efforts to reduce the frequency of deaths depend upon machinery for reporting the cases of sickness, their causes, and their dura tion, for each group in the communi ty. For this purpose, it is not suffi cient to know only, as we do now. the number, who have died from any particular cause. We must hence forth place our .emphasis upon the cases of sickness themselvea",' They are socially, more important than deaths and our program must more and more prevent their Occurrence and effect their control. The state must, .therefore, in the first instance, see that all preventable diseases are recorded that we may lay our founda tion) for efficient and sanitary admin istration. "Health, departments have long realized the importance of registering disease. At first they required the re porting of the plagues, such as small pox, yellow fever, cholera, etc. Later, the list was extended to include the acute infections, especially those of childhood, like diphtheria, scarlet fever and measles. With the devel opment of the germ theory of disease., the reporting of tuberculosis was in cluded; first on a voluntary, and later on a compulsory basis. Finally, in some of the more advanced states, certain non-infectious diseases, such as cancer, pellagra, and even a few of the occupational .diseases, have been made reportable. At the present time. nearly all states of the Union have laws requiring the reporting of one or more of the preventable diseases. "No Important aspect of our state health work shows up to such poor advantage as does the registration and control of. the preventable diseases. We are here concerned with conditions which are responsible from year to year for large economic and social losses and yet we have only the crud est machinery for checking them. Professor Irving Fisher of Yale has estimated that about three million people are seriously ill at any one time in the United States, of whom about a half are suffering from pre ventable causes. The economic losses from such illness he declares to be no less than five hundred million dol lars annually in wages and an equal sum in doctors' fees, drugs and other necessary medical accessories. These figures, he believes, are conservative; but it is obviously impossible to make any estimate which will approximate the truth in view of the total ab sence of reliable information. In fact, there are no records of illness in this countryv excepting the very fragmentary reports of a few states and some corporations. Whatever be the exact amount of loss sustained, through sickness, effective registration will help materially to reduce it and will thus yield a big return to the communities on the relatively small investment required." TOUR BOY AND HIS MUSCLES. In the June American Magazine Dr. Charles K. Taylor of Philadelphia writes an Interesting and practically helpful article entitled "Your Boy and His Muscles," in which he gives sug gestions aa to proper exercises for young boys. Following is an extract from his article: ""First of all, when a child Is in a poor condition of which the basic cause is some remediable physical defect there is little use in giving spe cial exercises until the defect la re moved. For instance, breathing exer cises .cannot bo nearly, as effective as they should be for a child suffering from large adenoids, nor can you ex pectgood results when -a child has some physical irritation inducing nerv ous effects of different kinds. Above all, you should always know tho state of the child's heart. If the heart is good, and if there are no serious reme diable defects to interfere with your obtaining good results, then you can take up the matter of special exorcises with some degree of confidence. "When you find Just where your boy is lacking, whether in chest expan sion, shoulder girth, anus, and so on, or perhaps in posture, If he is hollow chested with shoulders bent forward, then you can take up the exercises suggested for the different needs. And right here is a word of caution, which will be repeated now and then. Never carry an exercise beyond the time when fatigue begins. Do not continue it to- exhaustion; but when the boy begins to feel tired, stop at once, if it is only after two or three motions! "It interests the boy a great deal. too, to keep account of his physical measurements. .If these are taken once a month his Interest is kept up, and he is stimulated when he finds that he is actually gaining. Finally, do not carry on a special exercise after it is no longer necessary. What you desire is a good, all-around develop ment, and when this is attained special work should cease and general exer cise be carefully continued. It should be said, too, that such work can never be considered as a substitute for out door play. This latter is vitally neces sary for all children. These exefcises are to be used as adjuncts to bring up to standard any set of muscles which are under-developed." Journal Entries Honors have nothing on troubles in not coming singly.

No. 2- studied a bit and then remarked: "We had some land about like that, but always put it in corn and planted it with a shotgun."

(By Helen Doremus.) Echo Field lay warm under the sum mer sunshine. Gay parasols were scat tered among the bard benches that sur rounded the diamond where the Lit tleviile nine was to meet a picked num ber of young men from the hotel guests. Lons; black stages crawled up the hill and deposited more spectators. There were awkward country youths and fresh faced maidens from the sur rounding villages all in holiday attire and dapper, white clad young men and pretty girls from the big hotel near the bay. Old men, stooped from following the plow and the patient routine of the day's work, and old men from the hotel, bent and wrinkled from studying the stock market, joined the crowd. At last the hotel players came and they were no mean antagonists for these country boys. A big automobile bus glided up to the field and the play ers and their friends tumbled out. The Hotel nine was a trim, well set-up crowd, in uniforms of pure white from their caps to the soles of the feet. The hotel rooters rose and cheered. The Littlevllle nine, clad in their sober gray and blue suits, arrived In Sammy Hawk's two horse stage. There was a loud cheer from the home sym pathizers as the nine went onto the field to meet the foe. Captain Link Stevens, the biggest and brownest giant of them alL gathered his men in a bunch and spoke plainly. "Buck up, you chaps," he said with a click of his strong white teeth. "This is no parlor game and that hotel gang means business. We've-got to win! Just keep that in your mind, Todd, when you go to the stick see? Don't have your mind on the parasols on the benches!" "I'll bet his mind's on a blue parasol all right," grumbled the crestfallen Todd to his crony. Wakeman. "You mean Miss Galen T "Yep end Link Steven hasn't got a ghost of a show with her! I was talking with that Peters feUow from the hotel and he says Miss Galen's as' good as engaged to 'that chap dverthere that's pitching for the Hotels what's his name?" "Mifflin? Well, be Is some swell! So is Helen Galen. Link's got a lot of nerve to think he can get. her; he's nothing but a country lawyer, and they say her father's some punklns out In Omaha, where she came from well, the game's called. Watch us put 'em on the run!" Todd went to the bat. still nursing a grudge against the handsome cap tain of the Littlevllle nine. The mem ory of another game, earlier in the season, which had been lost to the hotel boys because Todd had lost an inning through the simple mistake of trying to wave his hand at May Piatt, and keep his eye on the approaching ball at the same time, came up and rankled in his mind. He missed the ball and May's cheerful rooting could not compensate Todd for the error. Tho Littleville player could not for get this horrid blunder; the hotel boys wouldn't allow them to. Among the sea of snow white para sols that marked the hotel crowd of onlookers was one of blue; Its owner bore a great deal of good natured rail lery with sweet composure. Once her eyes met the keen brown ones of Link Stevens and her smile and blush sent him stoutheartedly to the fray. Dick Mifflin came to her for a word of encouragement. "You are carrying the enemy's col ors," he reproached her. "That's bit tough, Helen." She waved a whits-gloved hand. "But, see, Dick, what hosts of friends you have! Can't you spare one to the enemy?" "All save you, Helen, and you know It!" he cried In a low tone. At that moment some one touched his elbow, the game was called and he was compelled to leave her. "Will you furl that parasol for my sake wear my colors. Helen?" he asked. "Just wave your handker chief just a gleam of white!" "My color is blue, Dick." she said, regretfully, and he tore himself away with a heavy heart beating beneath his uniform. Dick Mifflin played like a tiger; ha played to win. Link Stevens tried to forget the blue parasol on the bench, and failed. His heart palpitated with the thought of what that blue might -mean. Helen Galen showing bar colors so proudly before all her fashionable friends before all of LtttlevWe! Did it 'mesa that she really cared for hint after all? He-had asked her the other night, and she had deferred aa answer until af ter her father came. He like that idea he wanted to meet tha big West erner and have Judge ilalen know just the kind of man his. daughter would marry. With these thoughts rioting through hts brain, is-it any -wonder -that tho Littleville nine made, another specta cle of itself on Echo field that .August day?" vv-'.-r,- '-.v When the game was over.' score to 6, the hotel benches were a riot of waving, white parasols and a din of cheers Yor the victorious-"nine. The section devoted to the Littleville sym pathizers took on the air of a country funeral as -one. by -one their friends solemnly shook hand -with, the. de feated home team and told them- to "bear up." "'.r Capt. Link Stevens found -Jim Todd and gripped hts band. "Say anything- you like to me, Jim," he growled. "I know-Just how yon; felt that other time. It was a parasol that put us out this time, too and I'm to blame for it." -Wen. it was this way. Link," ex plained Todd eagerly. "I didn't see the ball when -it came; I was kinder looking at May, you know "Oh. X know aU right." interrupted the disgusted lawyer. "To tell the truth. Todd I didn't sas a confounded thing except that blue parasol and Mifflin's sneering face. They got every hall I sen and they ate up tha bases under my very nose! 8ay what you like I can't stand it!" Jim grinned sympathetically. "I might say I hope you win the other game' you're playing. Link. Here's wishing- you Joy. anyway." Link flushed and shook his hand. "You're-ahead of time. Jim; besides no sensible girl would care about mar rying such a cheerful Idiot as X have made of myself this afternoon." "Oh. I don't know about that. Most any girl would overlook it, provided it happened because you were thinking about her," remarked Todd as he sauntered off. k Link Stevens remained only long enough to congratulate the victors, and. witn mat uunin's cool, insolent smile still dancing before his troubled eyes, he walked down the hill toward home. He had not gone near Helen Galen. She was one of that white parasoled gang, and the meeting at that moment would have been embarrassing for both of them. Her answer was still In doubt. So Link ate his supper and then went up to bis office above the Second National bank. Here he switched on the lights, and diKKing his fingers into his thick mop of fair hair he gave him self over to the study of a particularly knotty problem as presented by one of his weightier law hooka. It was Link Stevens's way of clear ing the atmosphere." At t o'clock his telephone bell Jingled companlonably. He picked up the receiver. Helen Galen's voice came over the wire: "You haven't permitted me to congrat ulate you on your victory," she said in her low, thrilling contralto. Link laughed. "You might spare my feelings!" he chided her. "That was an awful walloping we received." "Oh, you mean the ball gamer she asked. "That is unimportant: X meant the other game yon were playing!" "The other game you mean tne great game, Helen?" he whispered. "Yes." "Have I really won?" She laughed musically. "So my fa ther says he Is waiting here- to meet you." "Helen, are you glad?" asked link. "Hurry, dear!" was her answer. (Copyright, 1914, by the McChire News paper Syndicate.) Different Kinds ot Tndnlgence. "In his youth Seneca was a vege tarian and a water drinker, but his father checked his Indulgence In as- cetism." This rather, startling sentence leaned out at me from a nage of bi ography which I was reading the other day. "Indulgence In asoetlsm is a new thought to soma of us. Ascetism Is. the opposite of self indulgence. According to tne diction ary it means "rigid self denial,' which Is to say that Seneca Indulged in the opposite of Indulgence to ouch an extent that his father felt obliged to check him. When any tendency, however good in itself, ta: s possession of a man and warps his life, it becores baa. Caution Is a good thing, yet I know a woman whose life it has almost wrecked. She is naturally of an ex tremely 1 cautious temperament and she has Indulged herself in it until caution -has become an obsession to her. When she goes out of the house she cannot shut a door and lock it and leave it, she must go back and try it to make sure it was locked. With a thousand needless little cares of this sort she fritters away precious time and wears out herself and every one about her. Pride is a vice and humility Is a virtue. Yet is it not possible to in dulge .oneself In humility to such an extent tl.at a check is needed? I think it is. In fact, I know a gorl who would be a much pleasanter com panion for herself and every one else if she had been checked in her habit of self depreciation in her childhood. She is always running herself down. The result is that those people who think her sincere take her at her own needlessly low estimate, and those who do not are bored and repelled by what seems to them a pose. Person ally I believe her humility Is genuine, but it Is carried to an absurd extreme, and It loses her much happiness. Even unselfishness, the greatest of all virtues and foster parent of them all, may "lean to failing's side" when it is made an Indulgence. We all know the mother who is so exces sively unselfish that she never gives her children a chance to learn the happiness of self sacrifice. If it is more blessed to give t-an to receive, has not unselfishness turned selfish when It keeps this greater blessing all to itself? Balance is one of the first laws of life. A really powerful character must have balance. Let us look out that we do not permit ourselves or our children to indulge in any pro pensity until it becomes an obsession that may warp and wreck a life. Blindness in England. When the census of 1911 was taken it was the first occasion on which an at tempt was made to obtain any infor mation regarding the deaf other than deaf mutes and other definite particu lars regarding certain infirmities, and the eleventh volume of the report of the census for that year. Issued recent ly, deals with that aspect of the ra turns for England and Wales. Extracting the totals of persons suf fering from different Infirmities, we find the following figures: 2C.S3C totally blind. 2C4 totally deaf. 1,(95 dumb. 13,427 deaf and dumb. 161,993 Insane. A summary of the proportion for tha sexes is as follows: One in l.tlS males Is blind. -One in 1,424 females- Is bund. 468 men per million are deaf and dumb. S78 women per million are deaf and dumb. 1.000 males to 1.064 women are insane. 960 females per million are deaf. 610 males per million are deaf. The proportion of blind males ex ceeds that of females at every stam. except those over 7S. the excess being greatest in tne working period of life, when the risk of accidents Involved by the occupations of males would have most effect. By far the greatest number of the blind were engaged as willow, cane. and rush workers, or as basket mak ers. The proportion of deaf and dumb was lower than at any other census. Of the lfl.lts persons who were re turned as suffering from mental- in firmity, the proportions were: loc.MO lunatic r 25.40B imbecile. 29.928 feeble minded.

In" supplying Informa tion. Any one wishing to aid in this good work Is cordially invited to send inquiries or information to the depart ment. One of the things people who come to this country from foreign lands notice and comment upon is tha scarcity of birds.

Not only has the ooua- try permitted tha slaughter of tarda by hunters often In violation of gams laws, it Is true, bat laws that were not well enforced but due care haa not been taken to protect the songsters from animals of prey. A visit to the home ot Dr. Langworthy. on High street, a few days ago. revealed tha value of such protection. "We don't al low a cat on these premises, said ma doctor in answer to the vial tor's ex pression of surprise at seeing and hear ing a great number of song birds.

Have you noticed this? The men who shoot craps and tha men who run their automobiles too fast are about the only people who are troubling the police judge. And if yon have noticed this, you may reflect upon the reason: The desire for excitement. Gambling is the poor man's automobile; speeding is tha rich man's craps. The desire for ex citement more than life affords finds its manifestation in the speedsters snd the crap shooters. Now why? Because they are Idle the rich and the poor; one from choice, the other from need. But the same desire to feel a thrill In their idleness is at the bottom of the fact that the rich crap shooter and the poor speed maniac are much in the polios Judge's mind; or is it the other way around? Anyway, it makes little dif ference. Emporia Gasotte. OUSTING THE BATHTUB. The discovery of the Harrison. N. J., board of health that the family bathtub Is a menace to health because of its promiscuous use will have mo mentous consequences. Social work ers devoted to the uplift of other peo ple have for years complained that dwellers in poor tenements use the bathtub,, when there is one, for a coal bin. Here is another instance where the instinct of the plain people Is a surer guide than the fine-spun the ories of specialist A bathtub filled with coal is not transmitting disease, and it may help the family postpone the payment of winter prices for fuel. A bathtub filled in May. the revised proverb may run. is worth a load of hay; a bathtub filled In June, only a silver spoon. "The great unwashed" was once a term of reproach. Will it now be proudly worn as a proof of the most advanced sanitary practice; or shall we return to the system ones beloved of traveling Britons, when each man took about-with him a lit tle tin tub of his own? Are not in ventors equal to the task of devising a folding bathtub of paraffined paper, to be burned after use? If individual drinking cups are to be compulsory. why not individual bathtubs? The Harrison board of health recommends a shower bath instead of the fixed tub. But it is Just as well to take no chances. By the time a family has paid the money it was saving up for an automobile to the plumber for changing the tub to a shower, some investigator will discover that the shower bath Is doubly deadly. Coal is always useful. New York World. BACHELORS ONLY. The stars in their courses seem to be fighting against the married man. It appears that he is now to be dis criminated against on the ground that be is certain to impart trade secrets to his wife, who, as ws all know, is equally certain to impart them in her own peculiar ways to the world at large. The latest employer to join this unholy league against the mar ried man, and thus to increase the natural perils of his position, is Sir Thomas Lipton. His only chance to win the 'America cup Is to preserve Inviolable secrecy as to the design of his new yacht, and he is therefore rigid in his decision that only bach elors need apply for work In his yard. Another impenitent offender in this respect is Lord Kitchener, who hot only refuses to have any mar ried man on hia staff In time of war but who promptly removes from his staff any officer guilty of matrimony during active service. It seems, there fore, that the old charge against wo men of inability keep a secret must be enlarged. Not only are they them selves incapable of keeping a secret, but they decline to allow their husbands-to do so. San Francisco Argo- "Ten ma the worst, doctor.", "IT1 ma3 it to you."

Official Scorer.) a! .rresiaeni up ir.eui appears to 0 have met with better success in se- 1 j lecting his umpires this year than 1 1 usual. Now if the managers will only 0 heln these nmnires hurrv the eames efforts. Too much time is required in playing the games in the Western league and this has been the fault of the circuit a number of years. The managers and the players of the circuit can aid the umpires short en up the time. The manager can hurry things along by asking the players to use less time in changing sides at the beginning of each half inning and the players can help by complying with the request President O'Neill made an effort to hasten the games last year by making a rule which prohibited the pitchers from warming 1 up between innings. The umpires enforced the rule for a time but it was unpopular among the players and managers, and apparent ly by mutual consent the umpires overlooked or forgot it Another practice which might shorten the games would be to deny the infield ers the use of a ball when changing sides. This would not have much ef fect if the pitcher is allowed to con tinue his practice of throwing three balls to the catcher before the batter took his place Manager Dale Gear has appointed Innelder Lattimore field captain of the club in hopes of getting better work out of the infield. In doing this he does not question the ability of the "old heads" but they do not have the faculty of talking very much and this is one of the essential features. If Lattimore will call infield plays so the infielders will play less individual baseball, it will help some. Manager George Stovall of the Kansas City Feds says there is no chance for him to lose. He was re ferring to the recent decision of the court of Illinois which has robbed him of the services of Pitcher Win- j nebago Johnson. Of course the aw i f final decision sustains the decision of the Illinois courts, Stovall will then start proceedings to force Pitcher Blanding of the Cleveland American league club to return to the Packers that is, if the Federals live that long. At the end of the game Thursday. Hans Wagner needed Just two safe hits to net a total of 3000 since he began playing professional baseball in 189S and at no time during this long career has he batted less than .300. His poorest year was in 1898 when he batted but .304 and his best year was in 1905, when he batted .383. Pitcher O'Byrne of Topeka is pitch ing good ball with the Hutchinson club of the Kansas State league. Joe Wood. Smoky Joe .pitched his first game of the season May 28 with the Boston Red Sox and won it by the score of 5 to 4- He underwent an operation for appendicitis Feb. 22. This appears to be a hurried come back. With Joe Wood back in the game, the fans are now looking for the re turn of Jack Coombs, the wizard of the Athletics. If Jack has sufficient ly recovered from his long illness to regain his old time form, interest In the game and in the Athletics will re sult The baseball management of the Hutchinson club of the State league is pinched for funds. Bad weather and interest in the big wheat crop Is responsible. There probably will be no stringency if the club can hold out long enough to .allow the farmers to harvest their wheat Then they will have time to go to the games Josh Clarke and his Indians, who are leading the league, invade the Kaw 1 reservation todav for the first time this j season. Chief Josh is said to have a likely looking bunch of warriors, among which is Hit-'Em-A-Mile Kane, who formerly occupied a part of Pa Rourke's tepee on the Omaha reservation. A good Indian never forgets and al- j ways Is lookinr for revenge and Hit f Em-A Mlie Kane sure gets revenge i every time he meets the Omaha tribe. It may be that he can be induced to smoke the peace pipe and act half way civil while in the Kaw camp. Catcher Bobbie Schang. with the Drummers, is one of the best catchers in the league- He is a brother of i Wallie Schang. star catcher of the Philadelphia Athletics Wallie was prominent in the defeat of the Giants in the last world series, nxnors have it that Jack Holland has made a deal for Sc hang's sale to the Pittsburg Na tionals at the end of this season.

C Experts Issue BaHetJn for .Fanners Aid- Manhattan, June 8. That the army worm is present in Kansas in larger numbers than at any time in fifteen years and is seriously injuring corn, alfalfa, and wheat, is the report made to George A. Dean, professor of ento mology in the Kansas State Agricul tural college, by farmers of the state. Professor Dean advises immediate efforts to destroy the worm, as a few hours' delay may mean the sacrifice of acres of corn and other crops. As a barrier to the progress of the worm, dust furrows like those made for the chinch bug are desirable. Post holes are made in. the bottom of each furrow at intervals of ten or fifteen feet The caterpillars will collect here and may be killed by kerosene or by crushing. A thorough spraying is efficacious for the killing of large numbers. The spray should consist of three pounds of lead arsenate to fifty gallons of wat er, or one pound of Paris green and two pounds of stone lime to fifty gal lons of water. Another effective method of con trol, says Professor Dean, is by sow ing poisoned bran mash, broadcast in the infested areas in the evening. FIGHTING HOG CHOLERA.

TOPEKAXS MESS DEATH. Motor Car Backs Doss HH1 Engine Stops. Cottonwood Falls, Kan, June 8. While traveling from Oklahoma City to Topeka in a large motor track loaded, with their household goods E. Barns and wife had a narrow escape from death at Osage hill on the Xew Santa Fe trail just east of Elm dale when he lost control of the car, which ran backwards down the steep hill. Barns had almost reached the crest of the hill when he killed his engine, and the car started backwards. In spite of the fact of hard set brakes the heavy track dashed down the hill, leaving the road within a few feet of the Cot tonwood bridge, where it crashed into a big stump and overturned. Both Barns and his wife were thrown clear of the wrecked load of household goods and luckily escaped with but slight injuries. Had the ear missed striking the stamp it would have plunged over the rocky cliff into the Cottonwood river, which, it is said, would have meant certain death to its occupants. The couple were taken to the J. H. Edmonds home nearby, where they spent the night and were cared for until he damage to their ear could be repaired. Kansas City. June S.

TRIDUTEOF GLORY Topeka Memorial Celebration One of Best In History.' Commander-in-Chief Gardner Writes of His Visit Here. CEVER SAW SUCH A PARADE Hot One of 30 States Has Honored the Veterans. So Special Mention of Manner Program Was Handled. .Commending the management, the fficiency, the plana and the programs Of the dedicatory services in Topeka "during memorial week, Washington Gardner, commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, wrote to Col. W. W. Denison, assistant adju tant general of the G. A. R an en thusiastic letter, received in Topeka today. Commander Gardner declares that he never witnessed so many veterans in a line of march, never watched such a sight in any of the 30 states, and asserts that the congregation as sembled before Memorial hall during the dedication was greater than any crowd he has ever seen. The commander was one of Tope ka's guests of honor during memorial week and addressed the vast assem blage of men, women and children massed on the southeast side of the state house lawn. Writing from New Tork, where he went to be present at the soldiers' pa rade to Grant's tomb,- Commander Gardner, requesting all press accounts of the Topeka celebration, says in part: "I want to -congratulate you and Comrade Harrison on the success of memorial week and was moat favor ably Impressed with the plan of pro grams and the prompt and efficient manner in which It waa carried out. Nowhere In the SO states that I have visited, not even In New Tork, have I seen so many veterans In the line of march, nor have I seen in any state so many people congregated together aa ware assembled in front of the Memorial building in Topeka on May 37 at the dedicatory exercises." HE DOES NOT LIKE IT f i But 'Wilson Will Accept Amendment to Tolls Exemption Bill. Washington. June 8. President Wilson is expected to accept the sen ate amendments to the Panama tolls exemption repeal, specifying that the United States doea not waive Its right 1 to discriminate in favor of its own shipping, but he does not feel that the senate gives its assent to the repeal in "ungrudging measure" by attaching amendments. Mr. Wilson takes the position that as legislation in no way waives treaty rights he may accept the measure, although he desired passage of the repeal without limitations. In answer to questions, concerning the Colombian treaty, the president today said Secretary Bryan still has that and the Nicaraguan treaty, under consideration and no definite decision has been made as to when they will be submitted to the senate. Troops will not be withdrawn from the Colorado coal fields immediately. The White House had reason to be lleve that a conference wBl soon come about between the warring- forces which will doubtless end in a settle ment of differences and make possible the withdrawal of federal troops with out danger of further conflict. The president believes the prospect for the passage of the conservation program in the house is wood and ex pressed the hope that the measures desired by the vtest may be passed also by the senate, before the end of the session.

GEtl, IIUERTA BACKS (Continued From Page One.) the Niagara conference. Carranaa's answer to the mediators, it generally was expected will be forwarded from saltlllo tonight or tomorrow, rnougn unconfirmed here, reports were per sistent that the mediators had induced General Huerta to rescind the block ade order only after there had been some assurance from- the United States as to the disposition of the An tilla. One report had it that the steamer would be diverted to some other oort. probably Havana, pending further mediation negotiations. Sec-! retary Bryan's face wore a smile broader than usual. He was asked if the Spanish ambassador in announc ing the suspension of the blockade had made any protest to the United States on behalf of Huerta, relating to the landing of the Ant ilia cargo or if there had been any negotiations on the part of this government and the owners of the steamer Antilla with a view to diverting the ship from Tam pico. "I cannot 'discuss anything further than to state that the blockade has been suspended," was Mr. Bryan's re Ply. "What will be the effect of this lat est development, upon mediation?" he was asked. All I can say about mediation Is that it is progressing satisfactorily," Mr. Bryan said. "With .any further degrefe of satis faction than heretofore?" he was asked. "I think I better had stick to plain 'satisfactorily,' Mr. Bryan answered. Shoals Safely Passed. Niagara. Falls, June 8. Mediation passed safely today over the shoals of threatened- disruption. General Huerta came to the rescue, rescinding the or der .which he had Issued for a block ade at Tampico, a circumstance that had imperiled .mediation and produced the gravest apprehension since the conference began. The blockade Incident has been satisfactorily adjusted," with the an nouncement of Justice- Lamar as the American delegates entered their con ference with the mediators. "We have received word from Secretary Bryan that the Spanish ambassador has been advised by General Huerta of the rais ing of the blockade." Justice Lamar said he was unin formed as to the reasons which had actuated Huerta. The mediators said they had taken no action with refer ence to the movements of the 'Cuban ship Antilla, carrying arms for the constitutionalists at Tampico, the in cident which brought up the question of a blockade. Mexicans to Explain. The Mexican delegates announced that they would issue a statement of explanation. The position of the American government was said to be that it would be tantamount to partial recognition of the Huerta government to permit the latter to engage in the act of blockade which is provided for by international law and sanctioned by the Comity of Nations. It was rumored that the Spanish am bassador in Washington, who is caring for Mexico's interests in the United States, had been able to make some ar rangement whereby the Antilla volun tarily would withhold her cargo of arms from the constitutionalists. This could not ba confirmed here. The incident was regarded aa of su preme importance not alone because the raising of the blockade prevented the search of foreign vessels carrying legitimate commerce and saved the United States from an awkward situa tion, but It Is taken to indicate that during the progress of the mediation proceedings. General Huerta was not disposed to raise any question likely to Jeopardize the settlement of the Mex ican problem through the Instrument of diplomacy. There was considerable talk, however. rthnt a tacit understanding may have alists would not receive further ship ments of arms at Tampico and that this had influenced General Huerta imme diately to suspend the blockade. i An Official Statement. Mexico City. June 8. Roberta Kstava Ruiz, the Mexican foreign minister made the following statement:-

I have received information tndav from our delegates at the mediation conference that the peace negotiations are well advanced and no difficulty has been encountered.

Dispel Your Anxiety, Says the County Treasurer. No automobile license tags until July 1,'ls the edict from the office of secretary of state, handed down by way' of the county treasurer's office i which has been besieged by local automobile owners who want to square themselves with the civil authorities for the coming .-year. Car- drivers should hang on to their old tags until they get their new ones and they should prepare themselves with the necessary $5 to accompany their ap plication to the treasurer. But there is no occasion to perspire unneces sarily before July 1 about the matter. "We have been advised by the sec retary of state that no licenses will be issued before July 1." said County Treasurer Matt Weightman today, "and, 'consequently, we can not issue any until we receive, the necessary form for application. Car owners must wait until the first of the next fiscal year." The anxiety of car owners to' be early with their applications is prob ably a result of the fact that a year ago, when the new license law became efefctlve. registrations of cars was commenced all over Kansas several weeks before the license became pay able. Now that the law Is actually operative and the machinery of the li cense department Is working regularly the tag; fees will be collected with much less effort than last year. DANGER III. AVIATION.

The number of the stripes having been in creased by the admission of new states, the possibilities of the nation's future development dawned upon our fathers, the original thirteen stripes were un changeably restored by act of congress on April 4, 1818, when it was enacted: "That from and after the fourth day of July next, the Flag of the United States be thirteen horizontal stripm. al ternate red and white; that the Union be twenty stars, white, in a blue field, and that on the admission: of a new State into the Union, otie star be added .to Union of the Flag, and such addition take effect on the fourth day of July next, succeeding such admission."

Jail and The woman's ward of the city jail presented a disorderly condition this morning. Sarah Rupert, well known in police court circles, was arrested at 2 o'clock Sunday morning and booked on the charge of disorderly conduct. This morning, in her room at the jail, she became unruly and conversed in loud tones to passersby on West Fifth street. Mrs. C. B. Arthur, a police woman, and Mrs. L. E. Thorpe, ma tron, attempted to quell the disturb ance but were unsuccessful. Sarah proceeded to tear up the bed and oth erwise made life unbearable for her wardens. The officers were called from below and three entered the room and car ried her to a room on the south side, where the noise could not be heard on the street. She objected to the re moval but of no avail. Upon her arrival on the other side of the jail, Sarah kicked over the stove in her room. The men were again called to come to the aid of the lady police officers and remove the troublesome prisoner to a private cell. She kicked and she scratched. De tective Goft was bruised on the leg and received a deep scratch on the hand. By main force, Sarah was re moved to a private cell, where she could not break up any furniture. She was arrested by Officers Wyatt, Hill, Bryant and Sergeant Walker at 111 East Fourth street.

Road Will Born Oil Instead of Coal on Panhandle. Seventy-five Santa Fe locomotives on the Oklahoma division will burn oil instead of coal In the future. The en gines are being changed now In the shops in Topeka. The reason for this change is due largely to the fact that large addition al oil fields have been discovered in Oklahoma. The oil regions are easily accessible to the railroad. The first engine converted in the Topeka shops was No. 1462, which has arrived in Ok lahoma for regular work. For the past few years the Santa Fe has been using coal on the Oklahoma division because of the high cost of oil. The price of oil has dropped consider ably in the last few months and Santa Fe officials say that jthey can run the locomotives cheaper, with oil than with coal. Through Colorado. New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado, nearly all of the engines are using oil. 35c In Dry Cleaned and Pressed Suits Steamed and Pressed.

The funeral service will be conducted at the home at 9 o'clock Tuesday morn ing and the body will be taken to Panla for interment beside that of her husband who was well known in- the early days of Kansas as .'Prairie" Smith.

Social Surrey Finds Favorable Conditions Here. k:::le3 cf disease Only Four Deaths Recorded in Twelre Months of 1912. State Laws Are Inadequate, Says Zenas Potter. According to the social survey re port of the industrial conditions in Topeka made by Zenas L. Potter of the Russell Sage foundation, neither accidents nor occupational diseases present large problems in the indus tries of the city. In the year 1912 only four deaths were traceable to industrial causes. Three of these were railway operators and one death was caused by an elevator-accident in a livery -stable. One man was found In Topeka who was suffering from poisoning due to work in a brass factory. In speaking of these conditions the report says: "Neither accidents nor occupational diseases present large problems in To peka industries. Death records of To peka for 1912 show but four deaths traceable directly to industrial causes. Three of these were of railway train operators, the fourth resulted from an elevator accident in a livery stable, a place not covered by labor department inspections. The most dangerous large industry in the city is the con struction and repair work in the Santa Fe car shops, and- there, as has been explained, a program of safety and the guarding of machinery has been inaugurated. Even the most careful ly guarded machinery, however, is not proof against the extremely careless as was demonstrated by the death of one young Santa Fe shop employee during the past year due to complica tions arising after he had lost his An gers operating a circular saw. A guard was on the saw, with a warning to keep, it down when the machine was in use, and another warning was posted that no one was to use the saw without permission. Disregard of both admonitions cost the young man his life. Can Find No Records. "No official information is available regarding industrial diseases in the city. No deaUis were reported in 1912 traceable to occupational causes. This Makes Wrinkles Go. v "As If By Magic Want to banish every wrinkle from face, neck,- hands easily,, quickly, com pletely?

Book on Memorial Services. Mrs. Maude A. Gilyeat, stenograph er in the office of State Auditor W. E. Davis, will publish a book covering the details of the recent Memorial hall dedication in Topeka. The book will probably be issued in about two weeks. for the Grand Army and kept records of all speeches and ''proceedings. In her new book she will publish half tone photos of the new half million dollar building and scenes surround ing the dedication. The book will al3p contain all of the principal speeches delivered during the week and the of ficial enrollment of old soldiers dur ing the week. STAFFORD III RACE Car of Topeka Man to Start in Sioux s City Event. rin ri no- th Memorial hall dedica is not surprising, however, for the lawltion Mrs. Gilyeat was official reporter aoes not require pnysicians to report such cases and many of them do not recognize the relation, when It exists, between a patient's sickness and the conditions under which he works. That there is a relationship has al ready been established for many kinds of work. Operations, for instance, re quiring the handling of certain ma terials, among them phosphorus, ar senic, brass, wood alcohol, mercury and their compounder unless prevent ive. precautions are taken, are likely to poisonings. One man was found in Topeka, without any special search, who was suffering from poisoning due to. work in a brass foundry. "The labor department has given at tention to the guarding of dangerous machinery, fire protection and trio provision of better sanitation and ven tilation in factories In 1911, the last year for which statistics have been published, 71 orders were issued for guarding of machinery, 2 for better fire protection, and 5 for the improve ment of ventilation and sanitary con dition in factories in Shawnee county. State Law Inadequate. The state law, however, is found to be inadequate in several particulars. 1. In providing for the guarding of machinery the law is general, not detailed, and qualifies the necessity for guarding machinery by inserting the words 'where practicable.' It would be more' effective and more satis factory to employers, especially as the latter are responsible legally for acci dents due to machinery not guarded as required by law, if specific require ments were made for the guarding of machinery, and some individual or board were given the authority to add special requirements for special cases. Protection of life, of course, should oe made practicable. 2. The law provides lor the- re porting of accidents by employers. Presumably the purpose or tms sec tion is to permit a study of the causes of accidents, with a view to discover ing means for accident prevention. Employers are not, however, required to report all accidents, but only tho.se due to 'defects or faults in machin ery, appliances, tools, scaffolding, ropes, cables or other appliances or materials used In construction or in the operation of said machinery or appliances, or motive power so. used. Obviously tne provision so limits tne accidents to be reported as to defeat its own ends.- Only accidents due to defects or faults in machinery, etc.. need be .reported.' Many employers would hardly consider a projecting set screw on a revolving shaft as a defect. yet hundreds of persons have had their clothes caugnt on tnem ana sutrerca serious injury. Similar examples might be enumerated sat great length. It is only because some employers consider certain machinery which is dangerous to employees free from faults and defects, that any legisla tion of this sort is necessary In practice some employers report all ac cidents, some only accidents required by the law, some no accidents at all. Experience in other states indicates that the- law should require the re porting of all accidents and permit the Sioux City, la., June 8.

The trouble caused the farmers by army. worms is getting serious in spite of the efforts to stamp out the pests. Most of the damage is uone in ueiua next to alfalfa. George Myers who lived a short distance north of the city planted three acres of sweet potatoes next to an alfalfa field this spring. A few days ago he cut the alfalfa, the army worms left for the field of sweet potatoes and it was only a few days until most of the vines had been de stroyed. M The worms, according to reports, are damaging the com, potatoes and gar den truck more than any other crops. The farmers are trying to poison the pests and are buying Paris green by the quarter ton. Silver Lake Dhy. There is not one' small puddle of water in the old Silver Lake bed. The lake has been in this condition since last summer. It is fed from the river and the low stage of the Kaw during the last few months accounts for the condition of the lake.' Prior to last summer Silver Lake was one of the favorite spots for Topeka fishermen. This spring some of the more adventurous farmers plowed up some of the lake bed and planted it in corn and other crops. Many at Convention.
