National Prohibition President Charges Sentiment Against Trnst Legislation Is Being Systematically Manu factured by the Interests. HE HAS LETTERS TO PROVE IT One From the Simmons Hard ware Co. of St. Louis. Holds Them Responsible for Psychological Depression. Washington. June 15. President Wilson made the direct charge today that sentiment in favor of postpone ment of the administration trust leg islative program was the result of a campaign by certain interests and in timated that it was the cause of the "psychological business depression of which he recently spoke. In support of the presidents view copies of letters and telegrams cir culated among business men. calling for an adjournment of congress with out completion of the trust bills, pray ing for the freight rate increase being asked by the railroads of the inter state commerce commission and call ing for a halt of the "attacks on busi ness were made public at the White House. President Wilson made it clear to his callers that the campaign, if such It may be called, would have no ef fect upon him and that it was his plan to push the trust program through the senate with the aid of nil the means at his command. He ex pressed the view that business was as good, if not better now, than a while ago, and that it would be less harmful to the business of the coun try to have the trust legislation pro gram completed than to be confront ed with a period of uncertainty which would accompany delay. The Simmons Ivftter. One of the circular letters, which came into possession of the White House was circulated by the Simmons Hardware company of St. Louis. E. C Simmons, the head of the company, had been selected for a member the federal reserve board and his nomination was to have gone to the senate today. This morning it. was announced at the White House that Mr. Simmons had declined the place j i rhalai A TTnmlln of BOI- ton, now an assistant secretary or tne treasury, would be nominated in his PlVhite House officials emphatically denied that the circular letter sent out by the Simmons company had any connection with the declination of Mr. Simmons. The letter was dated June 9, which was after Mr. Simmons had been of fered a place on the reserve board. This letter was not given out for pub lication with the others. Not since Mr. Wilson made his charge of an "insidious lobby" in Washington to influence tariff legisla tion has there been a sensation of such a sort in official circles. News of what the president had said and of the giving out of the circular letters spread quickly to the capitol, where it became the subject of ani mated discussion in both houses of congress. Magazine Takes a Hand. Another circular letter made public purported to have been sent out by the Pictorial Review company of New York and was signed by W. P. Ahnell as president. It was dated May 1, and enclosed a draft of a letter "which embraces the views of a majority of the thinking business people of our section of the country and which should be addressed to the president of the United States, the congress and members of the interstate commerce commission respectively." The letter concluded: "If you prefer to use copies of the enclosed letter we will mail you as many as you can conveniently use. lit. 111 V... affantiva HnVTAVOP 11 V.li Vlt 1 If you write them on your own letter heads.

Mr. Farts declared it was almost nope- less to expect to get prohibition through the present plan of an amendment to the federal constitution. Work of the Past.

At an early hour this morning Sheriff Kiene, alone and single-handed, appre hended two of the most reckless "ban dits" that have ever operated in this county. Apprized' of their whereabouts by the man whom they had victimized, the sheriff leaped into his touring car and whizzed to the spot. Taken una wares he found them, armed with glis tening knives and other weapons mak ing a ferocious assault, one upon a smoking neap of brown corn cakes and the other upon a plate of ham and eggs. There was no struggle. Both waived extradition on the agreement that the sheriff allow them to finish their breakfasts, and half an hour later the two "deperadoes" stood before Proba tion Officer Ed Rooney and underwent his preliminary examination. He was able to identify them as Teddy Nichols and lx)t Price and by means of various sources of information pieced out the story of one of the most thrilling esca pades ever recorded in the annas of Boyville. This is ,a story of the moving pic ture drama. Thrilled by the scenes which flashed across the curtain of a Topeka "movie" house, the two lads determined upon a career of crime. Ten years of advanture lay behind them. They knew the ins and outs of the law for each in his time had be come familiar with the workings of the juvenile court. It held no terrors which they feared to brook. But it required time. They learned the hab its of the venerable watchman of the City park shooting gallery, and one day the fates favored them beyond all hope. When he took his afternoon nap the key to the padlock on tho gallery door slipped out of his pocket, and Teddy, investigating the watch man's resting place, nabbed it. At an opportune moment they possessed themselves of two rifles and enough ammunition to have floated a political campaign in a banana republic. The foundation of their career was laid. Kliigdosn lotr a Hone .-T-Close study of the pictured drama of the west proved that no such life as their would be complete without a horse. Boots, saddles and broad brimmed hats could come in due time from the trophies of the chase. Thsy could be purchased with the ransoms of their captured miners or with the gold snatched from the gaming tables of the west. But they had to have a horse first. (Continued on Page Four.) LEAPS FROM TRAIN. Prisoner Is Ron Down by Bloodhounds and Captured. Chicago, June 15.

I Charge Is Twenty Cents Flat per Hundred Weight. Cars Will Be Equipped With Cooking Apparatus. New York, June it. Seventy-five thousand pounds of Bowery hoboes are to be shipped as freight to Kansas farms over the Erie railroad at a flat rate of 20 cents per hundred weight if that amount of willing material can be secured. The Erie offers the transportation. Joseph Cohen, of the International Brotherhood association will conduct the enterprise and a meeting to gather in recruits will be held in the Manhat tan Lyceum. The rate offered will not permit of palatial accommodations, and the Erie's quotation really goes no further than to 60 foot freight or "blind bag gage" cars at $1.50 per car with Jer sey City and Topeka as the terminals. Each car is to hold 250 labor seekers. The company's accountants calculate that the average passenger will weigh in at 150 pounds, car side, or a total of 75.000 pounds for the; 600 which will figure out at 20 cents per hundred weight- f-' Mr. Cohen, who says he left the Dubuque, Iowa, theological seminary to conduct investigations for the Russell Sage foundation says each freight car will be equipped with a cooking stove and as the cars will be attached to freight trains and frequently side tracked, there will be' many opportun ities for exercise and scenic studies. Any. amateur photographers who may be of the party are promised unusual opportunities. Mr. Cohen says of the Brotherhood: "The majority of our members who are between the ages of 18 and 35 are very anxious to work but can find none here and some of them are high school and college graduates.

Governor Hodges 'returned to Topeka this morning from Norton, where Sun day afternoon they attended the laying of the cornerstone of the new state tuberculosis hospital. The trip to Nor ton followed a drive over the Red Line from Topeka to Beloit. Although heavy rains have fallen in the state the last few days, the motorists broke speed records in the run to Mitchell county. Rains Saturday night co- elled the governor to abandon the run over the Sunflower Trail and Rock Jsland high way and most of the trip to Norton was made by rail. Beloit. Kan., June 15. Governor Hodges concluded bis trip over the Red Line Saturday night when he talked to a crowd of more than 800 Mitchell coun ty voters- in the Beloit opera house. With the good roads trip out of the way, the governor swung into the politi cal issues of the campaign and paid his compliments to State Chairman Gaflord and the Republican leaders, defending at the same time the record of his own administration and the state legislature. The state executive admitted the charges of his political opponents that the appropriations for educational pur poses had been Increased, but declared that appropriations for ail of the state departments under Democratic control had been reduced and that further re ductions would be made if the Demo crats were returned to power this fall. "My friend Auditor Davis charges that we increased the appropriations for educational purposes nearly a quar ter of a million dollars," said the gov ernor. "That statement is true. But in making it, Mr. Davis admits that we have made a saving in all of our de partments of state and that the only increased expense to the state has been for education.

The HDutchinson Commercial club today sent out an urgent call for harvest hands for this section or Kansas where the harvest is about to begin. The wheat belt adjacent to Hutchinson needs at least 5,000 more. Secretary F W. Tyler of the Commercial club received calls this morning from, half a dozen counties for more than this number of men. Hutchinson already has forwarded into the wheat belt about six thousand men, who gathere here, but this is not naff enough.

The Ameri can delegates, mediators and' Mexican delegates resumed their informal con ferences today on the personnel and form of the new provisional govern ment of Mexico. More names were dis cussed but the American delegates have not yet obtained from the con stitutionalists a complete list of those persons who would be acceptable to them. The publication in some newspapers of charges of bad faith against the American government, for its espousal at this juncture of a constitutionalist for provisional president, brought no formal comment from the American delegates. It is known that the Ameri cans informed the mediators in the very first conference, several weeks ago, of their Intention to favor a con stitutionalist in order to pacify the big revolutionary army which would cease fighting only on such a condition. Emilio Rabasa, head of the Mexican delegation authorized the statement that no charges of bad faith against the United States had been made by the Mexican delegates at any time. He insisted the Mexican delegates had not wired for permission to with draw and that the negotiations had not yet reached such a stage. He added, until the American plan was submitted in writing last week, the Mexican delegates had no intimation of the de sire of the United States that a con stitutionalist be chosen. It was suggested that the mediators. for diplomatic reasons, might have withheld an explanation of the Ameri can point of view in the hope of per suading the United States to make con cessions as the negotiations developed. All sides agree that on the selection of a provisional president the success or failure of mediation depends. VILSOII SIGHS IT. Panama Tolls Exemption Repeal Bill a Law. Washington, June 15. President Wilson today signed the Panama tolls exemption repeal bill as amended In the senate and agreed by the house. There was no ceremony at the sign ing.

The pen is the property of Rob ert Underwood Johnson of New York. C03SEVELT gram The heaviest rain that has fallen at Topeka on June 15 in the twenty eight years that the local government records have been kept, and the heav iest since last December, occurred at Topeka between 2:30 and 5:45 o'clock. The storm was accompanied by bril liant electrical, effects and loud claps of thunder. The sky presented a weird and rapidly changing aspect, which caused hundreds of the ner vously inclined Ught sleepers no lit tle anxiety. According to the railroad reports showers were general in the eastern and northern portions of the itate. The Santa Fe reports that there was little precipitation on its lines west of Emporia. The Rock Island re ports show that there were .light showers in the northwestern portion of the state and heavy -rain in the east. They report heavy rain be tween Herington and Horton and Mc Farland and Belleville. The Union Pacific states that there was an aver age of nearly two inches of rain be tween Topeka and Kansas City and the, same amount between Detroit and Abilene. Salina received a fairly heavy shower. There was a light rain between Salina and Piainville, according to the same reports. A half inch is reported to have fallen be tween Glasco and Beloit. The forecast calls for unsettled weather tonight, with probably local showers. Tuesday is expected to be generally fair and cooler. Wheat Is Down, Streams High. AU streams in the western and north western sections of the state are swoll en and indicate danger of flood condi tions in the eastern sections of the state. Both the Republican and Solo mon rivers were high Friday and Satur day and the rains of Saturday and Sun day nights, started them on another rampage. With the rains Sunday night, much wheat' in western Kansas is beaten down and farmers fear that this con dition will cause much trouble in har vesting the 1914 crop. At Smith Center last night, a five inch rain was re ported and it was claimed that the wheat through Phillips, Smith and Jewell counties was down as a result of the heavy downpour. A heavy rain also fell last night at Norton, but was accompanied by little or no wind. The rain was quite general throughout the Sixth district and particularly heavy through the two northern tiers of coun ties. Ground Is Water Soaked. There was a light sprinkle at Topeka before 2 o'clock but the first measur able rain did not come until 2:32. In the half hour period betwen 2:35 and 3:05 o'clock .85 of an inch of water fell. The last measurable rain came at 5:45 although a light drizzle continued for two hours. The total rainfall for June up to this morning was 4.03 inches. Rut eleven Junes in the last twenty-eight have had a greater precipitation. Normal for June is 4.81 inches. The stage of the Kaw Sunday morn ing was seven feet even; today it was 8.7 feet- This shows that the ground is becoming, water soaked, and a portion of the supply is running into the creeks and eventually into, the river. The: stage of the river today was' the highest recorded since December 6, and with the exception of the stage on that date the highest since May 13, 1913. The weather has been ideal for corn this month hot and moist. There is now a good stand of corn and crop prospects are excellent. Temperature at Normal. For the first time in 25 days the temperature was down to normal to day. The sky partially cleared in the course of the morning, but by two o'clock this afternoon looked some what threatening. The wind was sev en miles an hour from the northeast a direction conducive to rain. The highest temperature recorded at Topeka on this date In the 28 years that the local records have been kept was 96 degrees in 1918; the lowest was 54 in 1908. The river has been rising today.

Brooks, chairman of the state board of control, and other well known Kansas were among the speakers. For weeks Norton has planned for the cornerstone laying for the new sanitarium and the town made the most of the opportunities eurround ng the celebration. Special train service from adjoining towns, special trains to the sanitarium grounds, four miles east of the town, and scores of automobiles afforded excellent trans portation facilities f or the crowd. The tuberculosis sanitarium will be dedicated some time in early Septem ber and will this fall be opened to the public. The hew hospital for the cure of white plague victims Is lo cated on a 340 acre tract almost di rectly east of Norton and Is regarded as one of the prettiest sites in north western Kansas. Norton citizens do nated ISO acres of the land to the state and 80 acres additional land was purchased under direction of the board of control With the' appro priation of $50,000 by the 1913, legis lature, the state will not only own the 240 acre site, but will complete the first patient's cottage, erect a power house, equip the buildings and provide for the maintenance of the institution until an appropriation by the 1916 legislature is available. v Campaign of Education. Following the laying of the corner stone, short speeches were made by Governor Hodges, W. E. Brooks, chairman of the state board of control. Dr. J. A. Mllligan of Garnett, former state senator and author of the tuber culosis hospital, bill; W. L. Brown of Kingman, and I H. Thompson of Norton. Dr. 8. J.-Crumblne, secretary of the state board of health, was ac corded a place on the regular pro gram, but was unable to attend, and a short talk was made by W. L. Brown of Kingman, who presided as speaker of the house of representatives when the sanitarium bill was re-enacted in 1913. The speaking was held -in. a coot, shady grwr. adjoining i'hos, pital site on the north. The fight against the white plague Is a campaign of education, more than of medical science, declared Chairman Brooks of the board of control, in his review of the work surrounding the building of the new sanitarium. More than the total loss of life in the sinking of the Titantic is the toll which Kansas pays each year to the ravages of the great white plague. Governor Hodges told the men and women who attended the Norton cere monies. He urged co-operation in a campaign for the fight against tuber culosis and endorsed.:-t',-i statements of Chairman Brooks that the fight against the white plague .called for a campaign of education as well as med ical science. "When the Titanic struck an ice berg, 1,600 souls went dowri, down, down to watery graves, through the apparent carelessness and neglect of someone," said the governor. "A great wave of indignation swept over the country and the, world, demanded greater safety for the men and women and children on the high seas. Yet in our own state, 1,600 people give up their lives each year because of the ineffectual fight against the white plague and we are only beginning to think about it. The tragedy in Kan sas is a far greater one than that which befell the Titanic, greater be cause medical science knows- that the white plague is a communicable dis ease and one that can berprevented and cured. Yet we ..are- trflly begin ning to raise oud voles' fn' -protest. Cer tainly it cans lor a camPMSnJ9tS .edu cation. "When a -man or wonjnt-,strick-en or the disease communicated, we know that 90 per cent, -of-them can- be nursed back to health and strength. It was with a high purpose and ideal therefore, that the legislature -appropriated $50,000 for a state tuberculosis sanitarium that our wives and daugh ters, husbands and -sons might be re stored to health.", t Location Is Ideal Dr. C. S. Kenney of Norton is to be superintendent of the new tuberculosis hospital. The ground on which the hospital is located is at an altitude of a little more than 2.200 feet. Excellent water is provided at a depth of about 35 feet and it is claimed that the lo cation of the new Institution is one of the best in the state for the fight against the white plague. Following his speech at the corner stone laying. Governor Hodges spoke Sunday night to a crowd of 1,500 peo ple in the Norton auditorium. The big $35,000 auditorium is a testimonial of the thrift and enterprise of the Norton Commercial club and business men. Seven successive lean years have been the record in Norton county. This year the county will produce two million bushels of wheat and the commercial interests of the wide awake town are confident that prosperity is to be re stored. Yet in the face of the short crops, the town has in a few years built one of the finest auditoriums in the state, donated 160 acres of land for the tuberculosis hospital and Installed the best white way in western Kansas.

(Continued from Page One.) bank commissioner's office, of $19,000 in the utilities commission, and an in crease in every Republican department except one. What do my .jtepuDiican friends desire to say about that? Do they want to criticise us for spending more money for the education of your boys and girls as an investment for the state? Do they lorget tnat ior me 111 in r.nr, there has not been an in crease in the tax levy? Do they admit that we have saved as we said we would in every department over which we were given supervision and control?" In his speech the governor paid his respects to J. C. Gafford. chairman of the Republican state central committee. 'This is the same Mr. tiaiiora who is a brother-in-law of the editorial writer of the Capper publications, said the governor. "This same Mr. Gafford was made state accountant by Governor Stubbs as a sinecure ior tne aid of the Capper papers. Under Democratic rule, we are saving you tax papers $2,400 a year in the office Mr. Gafford formerly held and are doing the work with one less man than Gafford used. "Does Mr. Capper desire to discuss these matters with me? I only wish that he did. I will give any man or woman in this crowd $100 who will induce Mr. Capper to engage In a series of debates with me regarding the truth of the statements he has published in his papers regarding our administration. And I only wish that some of you would successfully take advantage of my1 offer." Swinging from the eairora-japper question and state appropriations. Governor Hodges paid nis respects to J. N. Dolley, former state bank com missioner, and declared that the work; of Charles N. Sawyer had demon strated that he is one of the most able bank commissioners in the state. "I do not hesitate -to say that Mr. Sawyer is the first real bank commis sioner Kansas has ever had," said the governor. "Because of the crop short ages of last year, seven Kansas State banks have met financial difficulties that compelled them to close their doors: Did Sawyer appoint a receiver and drag out the case as did Dolley in the case of Banker Flack of Abi lene Not a iblt of -it,;'. He nursed, the fbSHlrs ttordijifir their trta'anTi-MKa culties and in a few weeks they re opened their doors and are now doing a prosperous business. Reason it out for yourself. Is it politics, or. is it business? Other Speeches There. Speeches were also made at the Be- loit meeting by Hugh P. Farrelly of Chanute and W. I (Ironjaw) Brown of Kingman, candidates for the Demo cratic nomination for United States senator. During the stay in Beloit. the governor and his party were guests at the Girl's Industrial school and a per sonal inspection of the building and property of the school was made by the state executive. All of the three members of the board of correction W. L. Brown, Charles M. Harger and W. R, Porter, accompanied by their wives were also present to assist in the inspection of the school. The visit to Beloit concluded the run over the Red tine from Topeka and the party left Sunday morning for Norton, where they attended the laying- of the cornerstone for the new state tuberculosis sanitarium. Except for the last few miles, the drive over the Red Una was made' by TU F. Davidson-uf Glasco, who drove the of ficial car; a Model 37 Buick. About 38 miles an hour was averaged in the actual running time for the trip. This record is equal to, if not better, than the record for the governor's drive over the New Santa Fe trail in 1913, when a record of 37 miles an hour was claimed for the day's drive of 300 miles. The actual running time from Topeka to Beloit was a little less than five hours. The distance covered was 166 miles. ''"-NOTES OP THE TRIP. The good roads boosters encoun tered an inch rain at Clay Center. The rain, however, extended byt a few miles west of the county seat town and the drive over the trail wis made in much better than schedule time. Every town visited on, the last lap of the journey was left after schedule time and from ten to forty minutes of time were recovered on the Jumps between stopping points. Near Idana the party left the trail to visit the little town where 200 men and women were standing on the sidewalks and in the stores to shake hands with the governor and to jee the speed bugs. Considering the fact that Idana wasn t on the itinerary, she was well treated. The party spent more than a half hour In the Clay county village and Governor Hodges made a ten minute speech. Short talks were also made by Jasper T. Kincaid, state accountant, and by State Highways Engineer Gearheart. Leaving Idana 40 minutes behind the running schedule, the big Bnlck car drove Into Miltonvale just ten minutes late. An escort car blew tire and a newspaper reporter lost' a hat on the run. but L. Jr. .Davidson, president of the Trails' association, didn't consider stopping, either to lend assistance or to recover the hat. It was the first drive over a strip of Cloud county soil, .where Davidson has supervision of read building,- and the highway was as fast as a race track. At Miltonvale, a crowd of 700 or 800 people- was waiting. Governor Hodges was asked to talk politics. For thirty minutes, therefore, the governor mixed politics with good roads and education. The crowd was happy..':-. But another --schedule had been spoiled and Davidson headed his car to the westward more than a half hour late. Plowing along an ideal dirt road, SLVidson drove to ihe intersection of Meridian road axk the Kefl- Una. iwhere 200 man and, women ware, watt ing with a brass band and nags to nip celebrate the Fifth and Sixth district good roads movement. Mlltonval -and Riley and Manhattan had already con tributed their- brass bands, so music became one of the regular feature in the method of welcoming the Improved highway promoters. "But returning" to the trip from- Mil tonvale. It was Bearing the noon hoar and every mile clipped off the distance, meant that Davidson was nearer his own home Glasco. So the president of the trail association seemed to cod dle and fondle his car as a driver fondles a fast horse and the machine sped over he -dirt roads to the trail intersection at a rate that has perhaps never been equaled before. The stop for the reception at the trail intersection was short. Governor Hodges talked five minutes under, the shade of a tall hedge fence and the 200 men and women stood in the road and listened. Then the speed, bugs and most of the men and -women who made up the Meridian-Red. Trail cross-roads reception started for Glasco.,,., t In Glasco. there was a chicken din- ner waiting. There.' was also a rest of three and a half hours from a stren uous morning's driving. So the motor ists made most of it. The car was overhauled, the reporter bought a new speckled and spotted hat that was guaranteed to fit his head and the governor shook hands with more than 1,000 -men, women and children. The Glasco meeting was concluded' with speeches at the city park. The Glasco brags band played its latest and most classical music, the governor and Hugh P. Farrelly and W. I Brown talked to the 1.000 Cloud county people and mixed politics with recipes for road building. Then a half hour late again the 1,000 people stood on the streets to bid the motorists good-bye as they started for Simpson, ten miles away. "This is as far as I go." said Da vidson, indicating the next town with a wave of his hand. But that last lap that the Glasco road promoter drove will never be forgotten by the men who rode in his car. It is ten miles from Glasco- to Simpson. Davidson made the trip In something like 13 minutes, taking some eight or ten curves as he did it- All away along that ten mile run the speedometer hung over the 60-mile mark. Some times it wavered and faltered as if hunting a safe spot, but always it wavered on the far end of 60. Some times It was 62, then 50 and up and up to 54 and 55 miles an hour. Out in the fields and along the roads and highways men and women with whom Davidson had -been ac quainted for a lifetime drove quietly on their way or worked conscientious ly In their fields. They stopped their teams to watch the' car fly by. The dare-devil Davidson saw all that was happening and waved his hand In friendly greeting to the men In the fields. He had a wave or a nod for the man with the one-horse buggy who was passed at express rate speed and apparently the Glasco man saw everything that transpired in front and at both sides of him. But always he kept the best control of his car and when the cyclone speeder dropped the party in Simpson, it was with regret that the party said good- Dye. Davidson had really nlanned to drive a new six cvJinar ja,ile4 juv-ittjii trip. Taut tne roads wer manrwnefi tne trip started and the trail D resi dent abandoned his original plan. With a six cylinder car, Davidson gleefully related,-he could easily at tain a 70 or 76 mues record on the Cloud county speedway. No one men tioned it while Davidson was present, but down in their hearts, three good roads boosters and a meek eyed re porter thanked heaven for the heavy roads that kept the six cylinder ma chine in the garage. Cloud county has presented some ma terial for thought on the question of road building. Recently the county needed a new county highway. The farmers some of them objected to an increased road tax levy. So the farm ers donated $1,500 and the desired road was built. Then again. The Cloud county commissioners desired to experi ment on the cost of road and culvert building. They took a strip of 12 miles which was made into a veritable speed way, with concrete culverts and the best possible grading. What do you think it cost? That 11 miles of road completed, cost Just exactly 81.985 dragging, grading, culverts and all. And along its route. Cloud county farmers will this year haul their wheat to mar ket at one half the exnense and incon venience of former yeare. It is one of tne best strips of dirt road in Kansas. A party of Beloit motorists took the good roads boosters from Simpson to tseioit. At tne Mitchell county seat the governor and his party were entertain ed at the Girls' Industrial school by Miss Frank Wilson, the superintendent. They were not only dinner guests at the institution, but spent the night at the home and arose at 6 o'clock Sunday morning to catch an early train, to Norton. A bard rain in Beloit Saturday night made impossible the proposed au tomobile trip to the site of the new tuberculosis sanitarium. Comparing the Red tine with other cross state highways the Kansas City Denver road ranks high. With the ex ception of a few bumps in the hills through Riley county and the holes in the Shawnee county gravel road, the road from lopeka to Beloit is in excel lent condition. Before the close of the present year. It Is believed that the Red Line will be recognised as one of the fastest dirt roads in Kansas. During the stay in Norton. Govern or Hodges was entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Broquet. Mrs. Broquet is a daughter of the mayor of Lucerne, Switzerland. Bro quet is one of the prominent young business men of Norton. Charles Sawyer, state bank com missioner, and Stance Myers, secre tary of the state board of control- were among the state officials attend ing the laying of the cornerstone 'for the Norton sanitarium. Sawyer is president of the Norton National bank and was general host to all the To-: peka visitors during their stay in .th Sixth district town. f A crowd of more than 200 men and women met the governor and his party at Edmond with a bcasa band. Governor Hodges made a five minute speech on good citizenship and an ambitious snap shot artist induced W. L. Brooks, chairman of the board of control, to pose for a picture. The kodae Hand mistook.

For nine innings It waddled along without the helping hand of either a,run or an error, and although the Dee-Emms nailed It in the tenth, it was some game. The only hitch was in the front end of. the game, when Mr. McAllister was canned and fined five pesos for tilling the ump what the crowd thought of bim. Mr. Lemori went the rest of the route. That second; game afforded enter tainment but little food for thought. It started with blaster Hennery Col lier pitching for the callers. Hla youth is against him when it comes "o facing a hardened batter and about a thousand professional goat huntera They had him bounding from crag to crag before the! arrival of the fifth rest, and before Tex Jones could make up his mind to lead it back to its stal?, the pitter-patter of little feetsteps about four pitters and three patters was' heard crossing the plate. The mere child was followed by one Laf ferty, but he didn't find anything to laf about. Messrs.' McGrath and Pepclark officiated for the hosts; As usual, the' umplng was simply fierce, but the official showed less partiality than usual. He handed the visitors a summer squash occasional ly. Mr. McAllister, who had paid h(3 fine and returned to catch the second game, dared further disaster by "bawling" a rank one. Lou had stooped to dust: his paws and the kid grooved one before he had recov ered a swatting position. "Ball," bawled the ursp- ."That, was a strike,," asserted, McAllister, thus tak ing a seat in the hall of fame as about the only batter who ever took issue with an ump on that kind of decision. The Saturday game was not an auspicious opening for new manage ment. The Old Crows were up against a pitcher who Is a believer In Intensive farming. This Mr. Mogridge can raise three crops of whiffs on soil that for merly produced but one, and it was positively painful to see swatters who are named among the. first half dosen of the league, trying to "make" him for a safe one.

On the eve of a decision from the Kansas supreme court on the legality of the Kansas method of regulating rates of fire Insurance companies, the Chicago publicity committee of the National Association of Fire Under' writers has sent out a statement threatening that in the event of an unfavorable decision in the courts the fire insurance companies operating in this state may withdraw from doing business nere. A decision by the supreme court on an appealed aemurrer from the Shaw nee county district court,- where a fight on the Kansas insurance depart ment was started by the insurance companies, objecting to the enforced Kansas ratings last summer, is expect ed next month. In 1909 Charles W. Barnes, then Kansas commissioner of Insurance, made effective a cut in fire insurance rates, amounting to 12 per cent on mercantile risks and 14 per cent on dwelling houses. The depart ment has since then maintained this reduction, although representatives of the department claim the companies have more than overcome their loss of revenue oy closer inspections. The long wrangle over rates got into the courts last summer when the state in surance department brought charges of violation of the anti-trust laws of Kansas. The Kansas department claims the companies are compelling Kansas to pay for losses in other states where fire losses are proportionately heavier than here. The companies claim to be losing money everywhere. Attorney General John Dawson, after reading the communication sent out by the publicity commission, characterized it as an attempt to bluff the supreme court. DEFENSE OF UNIONS. Attorney General Dawson Into Su preme Court With Brief. Attorney General John Dawson is ready to go into the United States su preme court with his defense of the Kansas law defending the privilege of a workman to join a labor union with out molestation on the part of his em ployer. Mr. Dawson proposes that the Fourteenth amendment to the national constitution defends the right of the laborer to affiliate with labor organiza tions. This constitutional amendment has more frequently been cited in re sistance of state laws which abridged the activities of corporations and the Kansas statute has been made the sub ject of a bitter attack on the part of employers of labor. The attorney general has just com pleted his brief to be filed in the su preme court for his defense of the con stitutionality of the state law which has been attacked under the Hedges Coppage ci.se. already famous in Kan sas. It grows out of the dismissal of A. R. Hedges, a -switchman for the Frisco railroad at Fort Scott, by T. B. Coppage, division superintendent for the company. Hedges refused to sign a notice of his withdrawal from the switchmen's union and was discharged. Coppage was prosecuted under the Kansas law and the railroad company has fought his conviction through all the state courts, and has gone into the United States supreme court. NO LIQUOR BY MAIL. GUT DOhH EBJTiE LOSSES Danger to Life Wet Only Fear of Harrison Parkman. Perfectly Ladylike Festivities in Larger Cities, Too. More than 130 Kansas towns have adopted the "sane Fourth" ordinance, as suggested by Harrison Parkman, 1 state fire marshal. It Is believed that in the next two weeks, at least 20 or 30 more towns will enact ordinances; against the firecracker and nigger chaser and that Kansas will this year j observe the most sane an orderly In- j dependence day celebration in her his- j tory. Not only does Parkman believe that Kansas will observe the sane Fourth idea, but he confidently expects a big reduction in the state's fire losses for the day. Last year Parkman started his Fourth of July ordinance plan late. A good many towns declined to enact local ordinances, since the merchants had purchased their stock of fireworks and prepared for iheld fashioned cele bration. This year, however, many towns have responded and it is probable that not less than 150 of the towns of the state Kansas City, Topeka and other larger cities included will hold perfect ly lady like festivities. July, last year, the average dally fire loss was $12,500. Tet the Fourth of July loss was less thrn (3,,... Parkman wanto to reduce that figure' this year and also to add to the safety of the poeple who participate in the celebra tions. Instead of a day of noise and fire and smoke. Parkman has urged a celebration featured with athletic con tests, games and sport of varied de scription. His plan has so far met with success and fewer punk sticks and can non crackers and slant esky rockets will be sold in Kansas this year than ever before. STONE AND BIRD OUT. Well Known Topeka Lawyers Candi dates for Legislature. Postmaster Orders All Destroyed Bottle Found at' Atchison. Atchison, Kan., June 15. That in toxicating liquor sent by parcel post into a prohibition state will never reach persons to whom it is addressed, was indicated in a ruling from the postmaster general, which has been received here by Postmaster Casey. Several days ago a quart bottle of whisky was received in the mails-here. A clerk reported the find. The order of the postmaster general notified the postmaster general to confiscate the parcel, and added that in future all parcel post liquor was to be accorded the same treatment.

Bird of the Thirty-fourth district, and Robert Stone of the Thirty-fifth dis trict have made formal announce ment of their candidacies for the leg islature on the Republican ticket. Pe titions are being circulated for both men. For several sessions, Robert Stone has been a leader in the lower branch of the state legislature. In 1911 he was a candidate for the speakership and apparently had the job won when Governor Stubbs made a speech tnat started a panic among some of the members and Judge Buckman of Winfleld was elected. In 1913, Stone was floor leader of the house for the Republicans in the minority for the first time in 15 years. It was in the party council two years ago that Stone offered his fa mous resolution that called upon the Roosevelt electors to withdraw from the Republican ticket and give way to the Taft electors. It was the defeat of the resolution that brought about the factional fight in Kansas. After the battle, however. Stone became one of the chief manipulators in working out the details of a har mony program and enters the race for another term in the legislature as "progressive Republican." The candidacy of W. A. S. Bird fol lowed the circulation of his petitions by his friends before he had an nounced his Intentions of making the race. After looking over the nomi nating papers. Bird said he would be come a candidate. He Is a well known Topeka lawyer, has for many years been active In local, state and district politics and will make an ac tive campaign for the election. It is hardly probable that either Stone or Bird will encounter opposition in the primaries. BREW ST Kit IN ST. FRANCES. GREA T BARGAIN WEEK Commences at Gibba Clothing Co.

And now the Irish Nationalists are arming to resist the uprising of the Orangemen of Ulster, which has evi dently been set by the latter for to morrow. What became of the New Haven millions promises to become as fa mous a mystery, thinks the Cleveland Plain Dealer, as the location of Capt. Kldd's buried treasure.

With the doors of his big Chicago banking institution and its subsidiaries closed by the Illinois authorities, it would seem that William Lorimer is as unsuccessful a banker as he is a politician.

Sheriff Kiene again demonstrates his effi ciency as a catcher of bad men. His excellent work in this line has only been surpassed in these parts by the late John Wilkerson. who made a na tional reputation as a successful pur suer of criminals. No other peace of ficers who have served Shawnee coun ty and Topeka have approached the services of Kiene and Wilkerson in this particular, v IS WILMARTH FORGOTTEN? George O. Wilmarth devoted .Is entire life, and it was a long one, to the welfare of Topeka and its citi zens. There is a no more onerous po sition in the public service than that of chief of a fire department. Never was there a more faithful one than this man. Nor have there been many that were as efficient. No hour of the night was too unseemly for him. to answer a call, even after an unusual ly long day of constant work. No weather was too severe, and even in his advancing years, to keep him from his duties. Neither was there any risk too great for him to dare to cope with a blaze or to protect and save the lives of others. There really can be no measure to the value of the services he rendered to the city. It is impossible to imagine what might have happened if hundreds of fires that he fought to death in their early stages had gotten beyond con trol; how much property they would have destroyed, how many lives they would have taken. And yet well, the grave of George O. Wilmarth in the Topeka cemetery is marked with nothing more than a shingle of wood, and this was set up by the cemetery association for the mere purposes of identification. Even were Chief Wilmarth's wid ow financially able to erect so much as a modest monument to her hus band'.s memory -he should not be ex pected to do so. But she isn't, sad to say. The old chief practiced the the ory that a public office is a public trust. He might have died in com fortable circumstances had he thought otherwise. He was as hon est as he was capable. He had no time even for outside ventures of the legitimate sort. His peeping, one might say, as well his waking hours were given unreservedly to the discharge of his duties and 'the equipping of Topeka with a fire de partment that has few equals for ef ficiency throughout the entire coun try. Without doubt, almost every To pekan has a fond memory for George Wilmarth. All of them are grateful for his services to the city and the protection that he gave them. How could they show that gratitude better than by subscribing to a fund to place a shaft of stone at the head of his grave? There is no heed yiat it be a. big one. Ostentatious display was foreign to the old chiefs nature. It would be out of place in a memorial to him. But a memorial there should be. It is a debt owed by Topekans that they should promptly discharge. And a generous share of the money that may be needed should come from the fire insurance companies do ing business in Topeka, or their agen cies here. The activities of George Wilmarth mad" their business here most profitable. Journal Entries Sound sleep is man's greatest boon. Anything you can get along nicely without is a luxury.

Out of the magic stillness of the mid summer night rang a man's infectious laugh. At the sound Amy Pond lifted her head and drew her idle fingers from the fountain pool. "The king's jester is on the job," sneered her companion. "Don't!" protested Amy. then she added in confusion: "He might hear you, Mr. Lane sounds carry so plainly at night." Ralph Lane rmote the marble rim with his palm. "What if Leslie Clifton does hear me?" he askel sharply. "What is it to me or to you Amy?" The last word bore a note of lingering tender ness. "I have not given you permission to call me that," said the girl steadily. He leaned forward, his dark face close to her fair one. The moonlight shone impartially on both and revealed them plainly to an old man and a young one seated on the other side of the fountain. "You will give me permission to call you that and much more will you not?" breathed Ralph Lane in the girl's ear. Amy drew back quickly, and rose to her feet. "It is impossible," she said firmly. "You do not care for me?" demand ed Lane darkly. She shook her head. "I am sorry, Mr. Lane. I never could in that way. We have always been good friends and I don't like to lose my friends." she added wistfully.- He laughed shortly. It was an un pleasant laugh, quite unlike the hearty, contagious laughter of Leslie Clifton, which had earned for that impecunious young man the sobriquet of the "king's jester" or the "court fool," he being merely private secretary to the rich and acrimonious Mr. Jasper Root, chronic invalid as well as cotton king. Amy Pond was Jasper Root's grand niece and a frequent visitor in that bachelor household. 'Across the fountain Lane's con temptuous voice had carried clearly. The old man chuckled in his beard and poked his private secretary playfully. "So they call you the 'king's Jes ter, do they, Clifton? Well, you have certainly earned the title! I've felt ten years younger since you came. You're an antidote for old age. If I can- ever persuade myself to part with you I will recommend you as a sure cure for grouchy, gouty old men like myself." Clifton laughed again, but this time his voice was low and bitter. "Being the king's jester has Its dis advantages," he said, wryly. "Such as being laughed at by the beautiful princess?" "Yes and by rival jesters!" re torted the goaded Clifton. Jasper roared with laughter; and having thumped: his stick' upon his gouty toe In an ecstacy of amuse ment, he straightway- fell to groan ing with anguish. Clifton helped him into the house and, after giving him Into the hands of his valet, re turned to the garden for a smoke be for retiring. In the drawing room Amy's parents were playing bridge double dummy and as there was no sight of Amy or Ralph Lane, Clifton concluded that they were still at the fountain. He turned the other way and went into the rose garden which was Mr. Root's hobby. In the center, by the sun dial, stood a slender, pliant, white clad form. It was Amy Pond, her elbows on the stone face of the dial, her eyes hidden in her hands. Ralph Lane had disappeared. At the sound of Clifton s step on the path the girl lifted her head and looked at him. "Oh it is you!" she said in a peculiar tone. "The king's Jester and the hum ble subject of your royal highness," he bowed with mock humility. "You heard!" she cried contritely. "I have heard it so many times before," he laughed. "But why why do you do it?" "You mean, why do I play the fool?" "Yes," she retorted as abruptly.' "For money!" Amy drew back. "You mean you actually mean that you toady to my uncle and amuse him in order that he may that you might oh, it is too hor rible to mention!" "In order that he may change his will in my favor?" asked the young man blandly. "Oh, no; kings are not 'given to leaving all their wealth to the court fool. I am afraid you are prejudiced, Mies Pond; and you could hardly un derstand my real reason." Amy's head was bent over the sun dial and her slim forefinger was tracing the carved 'egend around the face. "This pays, 'I am as true as the sun, said the girl, suddenly lifting her head. Clifton smiled wistfully at her. "Sup pose I were -to tell you that that is my motto?" he asked. "It could not be under the circum stances." she retorted. "You mean in my role of the king's Jester?" "Yes. You are not true to yourself when you are bartering your manliness for the ignoble role of fool, hoping to derive worldly riches. Oh, I cannot be lieve you! I don't believe a word of what you say!" she cried, and disap peared toward the house. Leslie Clifton leaned against the sun dial and looked d.-wn at the stone face. His finger touched several damp spots on its surface. "Tears!" he murmured incredulously. "The darling!" The next morning Miss Pond pleaded headache and did not appear at break fast, so it is no wonder that when her uncle's physician arrived for his weekly consultation with his rich patient. Amy sought Mm out and took the celebrated specialist for a walk in the secluded rose garden. "I cannot believe there is anything the matter with you, Miss Amy." pro tested Dr. Weems, peering at her through his spectacles. "I am dying dying of curiosity. Physician, can you cure that disease?" she asked with a quavering laugh that revealed heartache to the great spe cialist. "Perhaps I can find v remedy,"- he said guardedly. "Then, tell me. Dr. Weems. do you know why Leslie CJifton engaged him-, self to my uncle as secretary? His whole purpose in life seems to be to amuse Uncle Jasper to make him laugh and and Forget his pain," finished the doc tor quietly. "It sounds so silly." said Amy weakly. S It sounds noble to me to us who know that Clifton has left his own practice in Chicago to lift your uncle out of his slough of. despondency, to give him new life, new views of life. and to leave him with a fresh grip oh tne remaining years that may be his. Dr. Clifton is a valued colleague of mine. He will get nothing out of this incident save the salary which Mr. Root pays him and the knowledge that he may use in other cases. That was the understanding when he at tempted your uncle s cure.. Mr. Root believes Clifton to be a happy hearted youngster without a care on his mind. I know him to be a hard working physi cian, whose special study is nerves, and who will stooD to anv means to broaden J his knowledge. Next week he will leave Mr. Jasper Root, cured." Amy was sobbing. "Oh, Dr. Weems, I have done him such an injustice!" "Then now is a good time to ask his forgiveness," snapped the specialist, as he beckoned to Leslie Clifton and promptly effaced himself from the rose garden. Leslie looked at the girl's bowed, sunny head, and his heart contracted. He laid his firm white hand on the silken coils, and when she had lifted her drenched eyes and looked at him she promptly hid her face in her hands. Leslie sn-ilcd tenderly. "The king's Jester would have speech with her royal highness, the princess," he said. "Yes?" she quavered. "What would you say If the court fool confessed himself in love with the king's daughter?" "I would say that that the cap and bells are but masks to hide the noble man behind the Jester's dress," she whispered. "And would you say anything more?" he whispered. "I would say that I could love the man behind the mask and forgive him for being a jester because he is so much more a man!" "I am true as the sun. "You are truer!" whispered Amy. And not until then did Dr. Clifton know that his secret mission was dis covered. (Copyright. 1914. by the He Clure Newspaper Syndicate.)

Dick Cooley, the new manager, of the Kaws, is not worrying about Infielder Roche and has another infielder com ing who he thinks will fill the hole at shortstop. This new infielder is coming from Perdue university and was recommended by Hugh Nichols, for merly manager of the St. Louis Browns. Nichols has been coaching the Purdue baseball club for three years, and on account of his major and minor league experience, is aware of the class of the Western League. Cooley wired Nichols to send the man to Topeka. He touts the infielder as good enough for any minor league. in the meantime, Cooley Is negotiat ing for another shortstop, who is known in Topeka and has no doubt about his ability. This fellow is with a class B league team just now and is the class of the league. He will hit .280 or better in the Western League. Cooley will strengthen the club from time to time until the club gets in the running and will give the fans a first division club if possible. Shorstop Roche wants pay for his services since May 4 and will not play until he gets it. There is little doubt about his playing, at least until he gets in the game and demonstrates his ability. HE WON'T SEE Willi The President Has No Wish to Hear Anything Front Huerta. Washington, "June 15. Secretary Bryan conferred at length with Presi dent Wilson over the progress of the Mexican situation today and immediate ly afterward dispatched a long telegram to the American delegates, at the Niagara Fails conference, which it was understood concerned the character and personnel of the proposed provisional government and the attitude of the Mexican delegates who object to a pro visional executive with constitutionalist leaning. Mr. Bryan would not discuss the na ture of his conference with the pres ident and would only say that media tion was "progressing satisfactorily." The opinion prevailed here that the United States would not recede in its desire to have named as the head of the temporary government, which would succeed Huerta, a man who would be acceptable to the revolution ary faction. Bearing on that conclusion was th attitude of the administration towards Charles A. Towne, a New York attor ney, in Washington in the interests of the Huerta regime, and who ha de clared that the Mexican delegates at Niagara. Falls positively would not ac cept a pronounced constitutionalist for provisional president. Mr. Towne planned to seek a conference with President Wilson today but it was stated at then White House that the. president, has -oo engagement with him, and that in all probability no engagement would be made, i The presence ,'ln Washington- of Pedro Del Villar continued to arouse speculation, &.nd a report was per sistent that adherents of Felix Diaz, represented by Del Villar, and the Huertaists had patched up their diffi culties and were acting together to exert the strongest possible influence before the mediators. Del Villar is said to have conferred with represent atives of Huerta. Constitutionalist agents in Washington had received no reply, from the mediators today to the offer of Carranza jto send delegates to Niagara Falls. sleFtiieWoh. (Continued from Page One.) Sunday night they found this "sine qua non," hitched at the rack outside the entrance to Garfield Park. Inves tigation proved the animal tractable. With the stealth of experienced bad men they hoisted anchor and their pirate craft swayed gently down the darkest streets to the spot where arms and ammunition were concealed. These stowed beneath the quarter deck the black flag Was hoisted and the craft started on its voyage into un known waters. It was about midnight that M. S. Hummer of Shorey pushed the bell and called Sheriff Kiene to the door. He had been enjoying his Sunday evening at Garfield Park until toward midnight. When he desired to re turn he could not for his horse was gone. Apparently it was a plain case of horse-theft for old Dobbin had been tied securely to the rack and could not have departed without help. He had telephoned and the horse was not at home. Warned Other Towns. With promptitude characteristic of his office Sheriff Kiene enlisted the services of the night telephone opera tor and in a few minutes warnings were ringing from Topeka to all the principal towns and cities within a radius of fifty miles. In fact all eastern Kansas knows about the mat ter for the sheriff put in the most of the night talking: about it to sleepy functionaries wherever he could wake them up. The victim of the robbery started back on his weary hike for home. It's a long way from the county jail to Shorey at 1 o'clock in the morning and Mr. Hummer was ready for bed. He had just turned in at the gate and was making for the front door and the feath ers when a familiar nicker from the barn yard arrested him. There, with nose against the barn door and a general air of injury at being kept out of his stall till such unseemly hours, stood Dobbin. But there were other wonders. Curled on the cushions of the buggy, fast asleep, were two desperadoes. From the quarter-deck protruded the rusty muzzles of two .22 rifles. Scatter ed about the cock-pit was about a peck of cartridges. But the pirate craft was aground and the watch asleep. Mr. Hummer considered the situa tion. First he relieved Dobbin from his distasteful harness and gave him an extra quart of oats to soothe his feelings. Then gently, after the man ner of a man who was once a sleepy lad himself, he carried the two pirates to the house and-jstowed them for th night between clean, cool sheets In the spare bedroom. Then he tele phoned the sheriff that the hunt was over. He undertook to keep the pris oners under surveillance until -the of ficers arrived. That part was easy for the career of crime was over. The pirates slept so late they were still at breakfast when the sheriff got j i mere, t mow they aoDeared before: tneir old crony. Probation Officer Ed Rooney, has been already told. Their hearing was -Interrupted by other 1 proceedings -in the court room and Rooney led them into the court house hall. "You kids," announced he, "had bet ter skin out for home and take the lickings which your mothers have promised you. In the meanwhile I'll try and think what I'm going to do. The prisoners, thus released on bail, "skinned." "If this county doesn't provide a de tention home, or something that will answer that purpose" declared Ed Rooney as he cudgeled his brain for a punishment adequate for the crime, "I shall go crazy. We've had these boys on our hands here for months with no place to put them. Their fathers are dead and their mothers burdened with the care of younger children. The State Orphans' Home at Atchison is full and cannot take them. They are neither bad enough nor old enough to be sent to the Reform school. I'm, frankly,, up against it." When he talked to them about their escapade both Lot and Teddy declined to be interviewed on the subject of the rifles. But they did state that they had obtained the plot for their adventure from the picture shows. How far they drove, or where, beforo they fell asleep from utter weariness and the absence of any thrills with which to while away the tedium of the long night, they could not tell. Probably they didn't know. But they are both sure of one thing. They'd like to board at Mr. Hummer?. FLAN ANOTHER MARCH Army of Suffragist Club Women to Swoop Down on Wilson. Washington, June 15. Another suf fragiBt march on the White House is planned as the result of an endorse ment of women suffrage by the Fed eration of Women's clubs at Chicago. President Wilson will be asked to receive a deputation of suffrage club women,, headed by Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley, on June 30. The leaders here have entrusted to Mrs. Wiley the work of selecting the members of the depu tation which they plan shall be com posed of several hundred representa tive club women from all the states. The demonstration will come as the climax of a campaign for favorable action on the suffrage amendment by the house rules committee on July 1. RUN OVER "IIEWSIE."

CRIED LftEA GUILD Perry Wolfe Broke Down When Told He Shot Wife. Physicians and Oncers Believe He Was Insane. Perry Wolfe, who wounded his wife with three revolver shots, nearly taking her life, at their home east of North Topeka, two weeks ago, sud denly recovered his senses at St. Fran cis hospital today, where he has been under the scrutiny of sanity experts, and for the first time learned of the murderous attack. Wolfe's display of pief was bo apparently genuine that both county authorities and the phy sicians who have been observing his case are convinced that he has been the victim of an attack of hysterical insanity. They are puszlad over the proper procedure with his case. Wolfe is under arrest on a charge of assault with Intent to kill. "This is the most difficult situ-itlon I have had to face," declared W. R. Atchison, county attorney, this after noon. "I am convinced that Wolfe was insane when he shot his wife and that he actually had no knowledge of the crime. When he came to his senses this morning he asked why his wife had not been to see him. We told him. Wolfe broke into tears and cried like a child. His conduct was precisely what the alienist. Dr. Bish op, of the State Insane hospital, who has been watching him, predicted it would be. The physicians have agreed that he has displayed all the evidences of Insanity. Today his mind is clear." For seven days while Wolfe was confined in the county Jail he refused food. A half glass of milk was the only nourishment he could be per suaded to take. He weakened so rap idly physicians who saw him ordered his removal to a hospital, where he has been under guard. He will re main there a few days longer while being fed. After that It wiU be up to the county authorities to handle his case. That the prosecution will go for ward is the present prospect. "The man is 'morally innocent, but physically guilty,' as one of the phy sicians expressed It." said Undersher Iff Hugh Larimer today. "We can not drop the case. He may attack his wife again if his insanity comes back. She professes to be in terror of him. But Wolfe is heartbroken over his own act. We will wait for further advice from the-doctors." MANY FILE PAPERS. Candidates for State Nominations Send In Petitions. Dan Dyer of- Smith Center, today verified the report that he would be a candidate for a place on the irrigation board when he filed his nomination papers with Charles Sessions, secre tary of state. Dyer will be a candi date on the Republican ticket. During four sessions of the state legislature, -Dyer -was sergeant at arms of the house. He served four years as postmaster In his home town and knows, almost every man of political note iii Kansas. This is the first time. .however, that Dyer has sought a place on tne state ticket and it is probable that he will have a strong following. "My announcement Is not inspired oy tne urgent demands of my friends, as most candidates would have you to believe," isaid Dyer, "but was occa sioned by my ambition to hold the job and draw the pay." Bert Walker of Osborne and Paul Reich of Syracuse have also announced their candidacies for a place on the ir rigation board. Walker was appointed as a member of the board by Gover nor Hodges more than a year ago. Both Reich and Dyer filed their nom ination papers today.

Auerbach. of the Palace Cloth ing company, compares the State Jour ial baseball edition with those of larger towns. He says: "To be able to get tho story of the game and also the totals in print from the late edition as one get back to town after the game, and also with lots of good baseball newa in tho noon edition the interest is sure to in crease and the attendance grow." Dale Oear, until recently manager of the Kaws, is highly pleased with, the State Journal baseball edition. In seeing Saturday's copy ho said: "Topeka is becoming metropolitan and the State Journal's new policy is help ing. The fans are good Judges of bass bail and to get a paper with story of the game and the totals runs, hits -and errors when they get off the car after getting back to town is popular' and certainly quick newspaper work. A. M. Catltn regrets that tho State Journal has decided to get out a com plete baseball edition only when tho game is called at S o'clock, as It is at Omaha and Denver and many other places where similar baseball editions are printed. Tho reason for this Is that newspaper offices are unwlUlng to work their forces and staffs so late after a hard and exhausting day on the regular editions. Editor State i Journal. J Manager Dick Cooley: "I think tho baseball or postscript edition Is a good thing for the fans.- It Is a big advantage to read a description of (the game, or aa I noticed last week, to get off the street car coming from 'the park and buy a paper containing i the story of the game which you saw only a few brief minutes before." SLATE IS MADE UP. (Continued From Page One.) Today's Program. Home economics and public health were the subjects of the day's ses- slons as outlined in the program. Eu genics, sanitation, pure food legislation, v tuberculosis and compulsory education were among the leading topics. Miss Julia Lathrop, head of the children's bureau of the department of labor made a strong plea for compulsory reg-. istratlon or every Dirt.i. "Legal record of birth is the only means of preserving the lives and v rights of children and no American baby should be deprived of that right." she said. "Only by prompt registration can nurses and doctors discover the children who most need care. It is only thus that we can stamp out blind ness of the newly born. Between 15 and 18 per cent, of battles born in the past two years have been deprived of what advantages they might have had with, a prompt legal registration. We have no accurate knowledge of country wide infant mortality but the census bureau has estimated it at 300, 000 annually." Miss Lathrop urged the delegates to have a meeting of every club within the next six months with which to take action to protect the babies of their own communities. Dr. Charles S. Rockhill of Cincinnati urged the women's club to work for playgrounds and breathing spaces in congested city districts as part of the fight against tuberculosis. The most important work the women's clubs could do. he said, would be to urge the establishment of a federal tuberculosis commission. Demand that certificates of freedom from communicable disease should accompany every application for a marriage license was formulated In a resolution submitted by Mrs. S. 8. Crockett, chairman of the public health department. Resolutions were adopted as follows: Protesting against suggestive stories in magazines and pledging members of the federation to subscribe for only those publications whose columns are clean; pledging support to a national centennial celebration at Baltimore in commemoration of the composition of the Star Spangled Banner; censuring immodest forms of dancing. Bomb in Italian Consulate. New Tork. June 15. A bomb said by the police to be highly destructive, was found today in the building occupied by the Italian consulate and the Italian savings bank. A watchman discovered it near the elevator on the ground floor of the building. Recently an attempt was made to set the building on fire. Rebels Lose Heavily Mexico City. June 15.

KAVS LOST SATURDAY Dcs Moines Won Pitchers' Battle In Eighth Round. The Kaws began their career under the management of Dick Cooley by los ing the opening contest to the Boosters of Des Moines by the score of 5 to 1. The contest was a pitchers' battle un til the eighth inning and then Brown weakened, and aided by bad plays, one error and a couple of hits, the Boosters made four runs. Brown and Mogridge pitched a fine game and both teams were on the toes from the time the um pire called time until Tallion ended the game with a grounder to Jones in the ninth inning. Brown walked three men find Mogridge one, but that did not ap pear to give the latter any greater chance of victory. The Kaws pulled off a number of circus stunts which robbed the Boosters of what appeared to be safe hits. The Kaws scored tieir only run in the first inning when Forsythe beat out a scratch hit to the infield but Lattimore forced him at second, Koernor hit to the left field fence and took two bases while Lattimore scored from first. The Kaws never poled more than one hit in any Inning after that time. The Boosters cinched the game In the eighth when Ewoldt led off with a pass, Mogridge bunted and was safe on Brown's error, Hahn walked and filled Um bases. Hunter beat out an infield hit and Ewoldt scored, Reilly flew out ani Breen singled to left, scoring Mog ridge and Hahn. Hunter scored when Jones was thrown out at first by Mc Gee. TOPEKA.

(By Jake Lewis. Official Scorer.) The change in management has ac complished at least one thing. The at tendance has increased, or at least larger crowds saw Saturday and Sun day's games. The crowds on these two occasions were up to the standard of last year. Dick Cooley is probably resnonsible for this department becoming interest ed in baseball. In the late 80's or early 90's we saw Cooley plavine on the town lots with amateur teams while he was -wearing knickerbockers, and we have been going to baseball games and watching Cooley's career ever since. ClarenoA Smith atnaw tax commission, is another who helped rile our sporting blood. This depart ment remembers watching Smith play in i"s oiuxe jeague ana with amateur teams in the early 90's on the tract Just east of Potwin. The fans who witnessed Saturdav ana aunaay games should be pleased with the performance of the Kaws. But at that, practically all the games played on the home lot during the pres ent stay, nave oeen played with- the same spirit. We do not seek to rob Mr. Cooley of any credit, but mention this only to show that the members- of the club were trying to win Just as hard under the old management as un der the new management It may be proper at this time to say that the men have been taking more chances on Dases.

Explain Functions of State's Many Advantages. McGrath and Clarke Held the Score 12 to 5. A campaign for organized community service on the part of the public schools of the state is being carried on in the county normal institutes at the request of the board of administration. This is a further step in the public service plans of the board. The direct stimulus to this community service is being given by professors In the Kansas State Agricultural college and other of the state institutions, who are engaged as instructors in the nor mal Institutes. The Institutes, each lasting a month, are held at different times in the aunuaer. Some are in ses sion now. Ed T. Hackney, president of the board of administration, explains the hoard's plan for co-operation between the school and the community as follows. the paragraphs being taken from a let ter written by him to Drl J. T. Wlllard, acting president of the college. "The board of administration, after consultation with the authorities in the various institutions, believes that the time is now ripe for an active state wi ie campaign in the county normal in stitutes, now Just beginning, .for or ganized community service, with the school and the teacher as the center, and as mosc of .the teachers of the state attend the county institutes and prac tically every institute will be visited by a member of the faculty of some of the schools under this board, it is requested that you take this matter up with the professors from your school who lecture before these institutes, and ask them in their addresses, to urtre upon the teach ers in the institutes their responsibility to the district beyond the walls of their school room and outside the hours from 9 to 4. and to advise them to call a meeting of the people of their district and to perfect an organization for the mutual help and improvement of its residents. Co-operation Is Urged. "They should urge an active co-operation between teacher and parent in or ganizing debating, mothers' or parents' clubs, and clubs for the study of vari ous subjects of interest to their dis tricts, and should point out that noth ing will help a community so much as the meeting and the Burvey and study of its problems. And they should ex plain to the teacher the function of the traveling and package libraries of the state and of the various institutions and the opportunity and advantage of an active co-operation Wth the exten sion department of 'the several state schools, all of which are able to render active assistance to these communities. They should point out to the teach er the splendid opportunities for real community s rvice and the mutual ad' vantage to both teacher and community of such a service. We trust that this matter of community service may be presented in every school district in the state and that good may come to the people by reason of their organization. survey, and study of their own prob lems."

HITS THE RECALL Professor Taft Defends the Sn preme Court's Prerogative In an Address Before the Har 1 yard Phi Beta Kappa. i;e sou;:ds mtar::i::g cote Property Owners May Not Al ways Faror Law and Order. May Become Rebellions Like the People of Ulster. s- Cambridge. Mass., June 15. The una bridged exercise of the limitations upon hasty action of a majority of the elec torate now interposed by vested pre rogatives of the supreme court of the United States and by the machinery for amending the constitution was de fended by former President William Howard Taft, in an oration before members of the Phi Beta Kappa fra ternity of Harvard university at San ders' theater today.' The subject of the Oration was "The Supreme Court of the United States and Popular Self-Govern-ment." Mr. Taft's defense of these limitations had Immediate reference to the change recommended by certain po litical leaders to quality existing per sonal property rights and Increase gov ernmental control over the Individual. He attacked the recall of Judicial de cisions and the proposal that the judg ment of the supreme court in constru ing and enforcing the constitution may be subject to a reversal by a plurality vote at any biennial election. Basing his argument that the consti tutional and Judiciary obstructions to Impulsive action at the polls were not Inconsistent with popular government upon English governmental develop ments. Mr. Taft said. "The enduring character of the Eng lish government, of the governments that have been derived from It like our own. is to be traced in this training of the minority to be good losers but the quality of being good losers wlH not persist in minorities, unless majorities exercise their power with fairness." Rights of Property Holders. Consideration for the rights of prop erty holders was urged by Mr. Taft who said that they may not always be non-residents and always in favor of law and order as if the right of property is seriously impaired -"they may change their conservatism to the rebellious spirit, like Ulster." Speaking of the militant suffra gettes as an illustration, of the ten dency he described, he said: "They u force, and with modern explosives and the freedom of modern life they are able to do public and pri vate damage utterly out of proportion to their numerical strength." In this connection, Mr. Taft attacked the trades unions for their champion ing of the Clayton bill, pending before congress, exempting them from the operation of the Sherman antitrust law, and for their support of the strik ers in Colorado. "We find," he said, "many labor organizations insisting that the arm of the courts be weaken ed so that lawless violence on their part may ba an effective instrumental ity to gain their industrial ends. In deed, we find actual rebellion against state authority maintained by certain trades unions and supported by con tributions openly solicited from their sympathizers the country over." Mr. Taft met the raised objection to the machinery for amendment to the federal constitution as very difficult, by saying that amendments which do not arouse sectional differences can not easily be defeated. The super iority of procedure of construction of the country law with the help of the supreme court rather than at a bien nial election was urged by the speaker and the need for some such tribunal grew greater, not less, he said in the developing of society in its modern form. Attocks on the supreme court have been made often before, said Mr. Taft, when there was a forceful man In political leadership who command ed an earnest, enthusiastic following and denounced obstructions to the people's will. "In a transition period," he conclud ed, "we need the supreme court, not to prevent reform, by the exercis eof popular will, but to prevent change by popular whim." DAD AUTO ACCIDENT, Marshall Hlte Narrowly Escaped Death When Car Skidded. Marshall Hite, son of P. R. Hite, had a narrow escape from death late Sat urday evening when the automobile he was driving crashed into a rock bridge ami plunged into a ditch.- The car was a Paige roadster, belonging to H. Grady Montgomery. There is little left of the roadster, out of the factory only a few weeks, but a collection of wood and Iron. Hite borrowed the car and went for a drive in the country. He was returning on the Tecumseh road and lost control of the steering gear when the car went into a ditch, skidding at a muddy place. The car, going at a good rate of speed, ran straight into the solid rock wall of a culvert. The roadster, along with the driver, dropped Into the ravine, which was nine feet deep. Hite was injured slightly and the car was smashed. The young man brushed off his clothes, hailed a passing Ford, and came back to the city. epvoWlewuTmeet Twenty-Fifth Annual Convention of Topeka District Here.

Pale Gear, booster for the Kaws! That ia the new role to be assumed by Topeka's erstwhile baseball man ager. The popular ex-leader of the Kaw tribe of the western league ac cepted a position today with the Kaw Milling company and he will live in Topeka. And that isn't all he will go to every ball game at Western League park when within the gates of Kawtown. "I went to the doubleheader yester day," Gear said today. "When the umpire called the contest on account of darkness, I walked down the gran stand aisle, I jumped on a street car, I came up town, bought a limeade and declared that evening that in years I never had spent a more enjoyable aft ernoon. No club house worries, no ex cuses for this man's showing or that man's playing, no dilly-dallying with the tag-ends of the baseball games I just sat there in the stands and 'fanned.' And Gear was of no little value to the club in Sunday's games. He sat in a box near the home players" bench. Manager Pick Cooley consulted him regularly on the weaknesses of the Pes Moines hitters. The players bantered him and jollied with him as they walked to and from the field. Fans jested with him and when the score was nothing to nothing at the end of the ninth in the first game, he waved a nemntv pod bottle in his hand and called up the baseball gods of luck to favor the men at tthe plate. He's a new Pale Gear. Hereafter he is a plain fan. He was as excited as any 10 year old kid in the bleachers Sunday during the double- header. And he says that he is going to maintain that spirit. "Baseball for years and years has been a business," he said today. "Now it is going to be a recreation." And he reached in his pocket, took out two telegrams from Texas baseball clubs asking him to become their man ager, tore them up and started down Kansas avenue to see his new manager, John Nicholson. Gear will be a traveling salesman for the Kaw Milling company with terri tory in Kansas and Missouri. CHECK 40 YEARS OLD. Witness Fee Slip Signed by H. Bart ling Cashed for M. H. Scott.

CITY FOR KIDDIES i Topeka Most Healthful In the Country for Children. r Only One Death in 7,800 for the Last Ten Months. FOOLS THAT "SCC1JIL SU.TEY" "Experts Wonld Hare 132 Die in One School Tear. But City Sanitary Sergeant Finds the Real Facts. Topeka children are the most healthy in the country.- Topeka's skies are the bluest, stars the bright est, streets the widest -children the strongest. This according to a report issued from the office of the city san itary sergeant today. .According to the death rate as cribed by the social survey report, 132 children should have died in Topeka during the school year. Out of an enrollment of 7,800, only one death has been recorded for the entire ten months. This Includes the high school and grade school attend ance pupils from six to twenty-one years of age. A remarkable report. Topeka kid dies are fat and strong and healthy. Whether' they laugh and grow fat jrietcherlze and grow fat drink maltine and grow fat fat they cer tainly grow. Topeka is the place to rear youngsters. "This is a record of which Topeka should be proud." declared Sergeant Ramsey. "Take Shreveport, La., a city of about 40,000 inhabitants! over 50 children of school age died there in 1913. According to the death rate of 17 per thousand ascribed to Topeka by Pr. Crumbine and the social survey reports, 132 children should die here every year. But they don't. Truly, they have 'health .that mocks the doctors' rules.' Pon't believe there's another city in the United States with a record like ours." FOR GIRLS' CARE Santa Fe Adopts New Plan on Transcontinental Tours. Chaperons for All Young Women Traveling Alone. There are many conveniences on modern railway trains but the latest one is a chaperon for young ladies. From now on, fond parents in Cali fornia, desiring to send their young daughters across the continent, will place them in charge of a Santa Fe chaperon, who is paid by the railway to keep tab on the young ladies placed in her charge. There will soon be sev eral women employed 1 by the road as chaperons, who will make the trip from San Francisco to Chicago at regular intervals. s This plan is for the purpose of al laying the fears of parents, who do not' like to have their daughters traveling alone. The schedule has not been made but will be announced in a few days. Then accommodation can be booked In advance on the trains that will carry chaperons. These women will be carefully select ed by officers of the road. There has been a need for this feature and of ficials of the road say it will be a suc cess.

He regarded the tables, beds and cas kets skeptically from the entrance, but refused to enter the door. This has been a great year for wild flowers on the prairies around Topeka. Travelers say it is the same through out the state. Seldom has the rain fall been better distributed for the prolific flowering of the many varie ties of roadside beauties. The first,' and probably the onlv car, of the famous California Logan- Derries, is aue in Topeka Wednesday morning. These are the finest berries for canning purposes known. There will probably not be enough to satis fy the' demand. Ask your grocer about them. Adv. Sunday night's rain caused a post ponement of wheat cutting in the northern, part of Shawnee county and in Jackson county where a lot of fine fields are ready for the harvester. Farmers are watching the weather apprehensively now that the finest crop in their memory is mature. "The statement in the State Jour nal," said Mayor Cofran today, "con cerning my remark that the policewo men did as much good as the rest cf the force put together should have i been modified by -the words 'in their! line.' I don't want to deprecate the efforts of the men in the department." An article appears in the 'Santa Fe Magazine for June about Cantata R. 1 M. Spivey of Topeka. Captain Spi vey is an official in the Fred Harvey service and well known in Topeka and along the Santa Fe route. This is the first of a series of articles on "Builders of the' Santa Fe," by Glenn P. Bradley. Pr. Eva Harding is the possessor of a novelty in a beautiful flowering linn tree in her garden on College avenue. "There are some in Garfield park i also," she said. "Not many persons are familiar with the linn although it i is one of the most deserving of atten tion for it grows easily and its blooms are fragrant." j Oscar Swayze, county clerk, has adr vised persons circulating petitions that it will be proper to follow the old pre cinct boundaries in obtaining names for nominations. He will not, how-! ever, reject petitions that are circu-' Iated in the newly arranged precincts. There has been considerable confusion over this point, Mrs. Alice Worswick, art teacher at Bethany college, will travel for the school this summer in the middle west. The principalship at Bethany Is still in doubt. No successor to Miss S. Ma tilda Bailey has been found. A com- mittee of three of the trustees has I been appointed to locate one. No defi- j nite pians tor tne coming year at Beth any have been matured. No change has been made in the management of the Central Y. M. C. A. for the coming year. George H. Hoyes has been re-elected general secretary: J. H. Reisner, physical 11 rector, with Robert Holcomb, assist ant; Lee Sidwell will continue in charge of membership activities, and Job Little will be office secretary. Word has been received in Topeka that Raymond Ellis, 24 years old and son of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Ells, of 324 Orchard avenue, was drowned at Portland. Ore. A telegram, giving no details, was received Sunday from George Ellis, his brother. The two Ellis brothers have been working n Portland for the last few months. They are well known in Topeka. Art Hargis, candidate for trouble in Mexico or the job of Shawnee county treasurer, which ever comes first, missed the fate of other candidates who visited the Stahl picnlo at Auburn. Other candidates were on the job, handshaking and passing cards, and some of th--m walked home after their autos were stalled in the mud. Mr. Hargis missed the picnic and the mud because he was laid up with an in jured foot. An old injury, received IS years ago, left a tender spot that was susceptible to a slight bump on a loose i board. The Rock Island train No. 23,: which arrives in Topeka shortly after midnight, carried a full outlay of har- Testers last night. One farmer re served a section of the smoker,, and every seat in the smoker, chair cars and even many fuuman oertna were occupied by those going to the Kan sas harvest fields. At the Kaunas City union depot last night, crowds' of men boarded every west bound train. The same condition existed in the freight depot, where the men left on trains without paying fare.

-.Head of His Armj. Repels Attack oa Capital by v Mussulman Insurgents. Curasao, June 15. The government troops, under the personal leadership of Prince William, today repulsed a strong attack on the Albanian capital by Mus sulman insurgents. At the outset of fighting the insur gents gained an advantageous position, but after CoL Thomson, the Dutch com mander of the gendarmerie, had been killed, Prince William placed himself at the head of the defenders and suc ceeded in silencing the rifle and artil lery fire t the attacking force -after three hours' fighting. A strong force of Albanian Mussul man insurgents opened an attack on the city at an early hour this morning, maintaining for hours a sharp rifle fire supported by artillery. Among the first of the defenders of the Albanian capi tal to be killed was CoL Thomson, the Dutch officer selected by the powers to command the gendarmerie, in succes sion to the Swedish officer who pre viously had held the position. Bluejackets from the international fleet, lying off the Albanian coast, were sent ashore to guard the foreign lega tions. The assault, which started at 5 o'clock, was carried out by three sepa rate columns of Insurgents. Today's attack by the insurgents, came as a complete surprise to the residents of the capital where official statements had been published declaring that the Mussulman rebels against the rule of Prince William had been utterly de feated by the gover iment forces a few days ago. It was asserted that the remnant of the rebel forces was sur rounded by government troops at Shiag between Durasso and Tirana. Accounts vary as to the strength ot the opposing forces in the field. It is estimated that the government has 9,000 trained men who are said to be opposed to about 27,000 insurgents. The rebels, for the most part, are tribesmen without discipline and they are scat tered over a wide range of country. Durasso occupies a peninsular posi tion and forms a natural fortress easily defended by a few modern guns. CATHOLICS III FLAY. Comedy Feature of School of Assump tion Graduation.

His last appearance as a candidate for public office was in 1908 when he was nominated for governor of Illinois, by the Democratic party and was de feated by Charles H. Deneen. Repub lican. He was born in Christian county, Kentucky, October 23, 1835. of Scotch- Irish parentage, i In 1852 his parents moved to isioomington. in. He attend ed, the public schools and the Illinois university.

DM O PLOVJ Kansas Farmers Mnst Kin Crop Worms and Flies. Agricultural Experts Give After-Harrest Advice. Manhattan. Kan., June 15. That the wheat sti-w worm is distributed over a large part of the wheat area of Kansas, to the belief of James W, McColloch, assistant entomologist in the Kansas Agricultural Experiment station. Mr. McColloch has received many reports from various parts of the state that tha worm was serious ly injuring the wheat. The Injury caused by the insect Is not noticed until near harvest time, when the stalks begin to break over and manv white heads appear. The infested plants also produce poorly filled or empty heads, xne tiessian fly often causes the same type of in jury, and consequently the two in sects are often contused in tne neia. At this time the larvae of the worm may be found within the straw, usu ally within the first or second joints below the head. They are greenisn yellow, footless and about a quarter of an inch long. In many localities where the straw worm Is present, the Hessian fly has also been a serious pest and such measures of control should be used as will destroy both. The stubble, says Professor McColloch, should De disked immediately after harvest and plowed at least six, inches deep three or four weeks later. In plowing, one should take care to bury the stubbie and volunteer wheat under at least three inches of soil. The ground should then be re firmed and worked into a good seedbed. It should do kept mellow, 'and free from weeds and volunteer wheat. The planting of the crop should then be delayed until the fly-free date. It will also be well. Mr. McColloch says, to burn off, or otherwise de stroy, before next spring the grasses along the edges of the wheat neia. Straw- from lr.fested fields should not be scattered over next year's crop of wheat. BIG CROP IN WABAUNSEE. Alta Vista Farmers Get First Big Yield in Years. Alta Vista, June 15. The first gen eral harvest at this place in a number of years has started. Farmers who have rye are harvesting, and the wheat harvest will begin the first of this week. It Is estimated that the rye will yield around 20 bushels to the acre, while the wheat is expected to yield over 25. Practically no wlieat has been raised the last ten years here on ac count of the chinch bug. Incident ally, very few chinch bugs have been noticed this year, and a large acreage of wheat will be sown this fall. The farmers are especially elated over the wheat crop, as most of it was sown last fall for winter pasture, and this makes the second crop they have reaped from it. As a result of the re cent rain some wheat on the low lands is down, but unless more rain comes soon, the loss will be compara tively small. OSBORNE NEEDS 9,000 MEN. With Record Acreage and Yield Har vest Will Begin Monday. Osborne, June 15. Osborne county will produce one of the best if not the best wheat crop in her history this year. In fact, many farmers are counting on from 25 to 40 bushels per acre. The largest acreage for years was sown last fall, there being about 160,000 acres and not a poor field of wheat in the county. This county will need about 2,000 harvest hands and those looking for work during the harvest will do well to direct their attention to Osborne wjieat fields, as harvest will begin by the first of tl.e week. Layton Brothers of Osborne City have been designated as head quarters for harvest hands desiring work in the wheat fields and any cor respondence directed to them will be looked after. Osborne county has just harvested a fine crop of alfalfa and corn is looking fine. COWS ON BOULEVARD. Ue Journal rcr;t Ads for Results Salina, June 15. The elevator men of this city are giving notice to wheat growers that the enormous wheat crop in this part of the state compels them to discontinue the custom in vogue for years of receiving wheat for storage and placing a price on the grain later when the grower decides to sell. Hereafter, for this year at least, a price v.-ill be placed on the wheat according to its grade at the time it is received at the elevator and a definite sale contract must be made at the same time, provided a sale con tract has not been entered into pre viously to the delivery of the grain. While the elevators here have capac ity for ordinary purposes, there is some fear entertained this year that the -.capacity will not be sufficient for the extraordinary demands that will be made upon them by 'the unusual crop of wheat and the inability to get cars to move it as raoldlr as will be 1 desired.
