The unexpected happened and Harlow Hurley of To peka was defeated In the first round for the state golf championship title. The Topeka boy went down before Anderson of Lawrence, the same boy who made such a wonderful showing two weeks ago in Kansas City in tho Transraississippi tournament. Harlow Hurley of tbe Topeka Country Hub. wZio broke the amateur golf record In the qualifying round of the state championship tournament on the Kaliiia course, but who lost to Anderson of Lawrence In match. Hurley played a good game but he met his master. Anderson played a better game and was in the same form as displayed at Kansas City two weeks ago. Anderson was three up on Hur ley in the first nine holes but Hurley improved his playing and was even with two to play. The men halved the seventeenth hole and Hurley got in trouble at the final hole. Hurley drove over the green at the final hole while Anderson's ball stopped on the green. Hurley overplayed the next play and his ball stopped on the edge of the hole while making the putt. Anderson holed out and left Hurley's ball on the brink. A. Fassler, Topeka Golfer, Who Won the Watson Trophy for Men More Than 55 Years Old. Anderson has another hard match on his hand, in playing A. Fassler of Topeka in the second championship round. Mr. Fassler is playing an ex cellent game and may force the Law rence boy to extend himself in order to win the contest. Mr. Fassler and Joe Wilson are the only Topeka men left to play in the championship rounds. The Early Playing. Salina, Kan., June 24. Harlow Hurley of Topeka caused excitement here Tuesday when he brought in his card with a score of 72 in the qualify ing round of the state golf champion ship tournament. This score easily led the field and made a new amateur record for the course. On the eighteenth hole, which is 223 yards long, he landed a beautiful drive on the green which left him a 25-foot putt. He sank his putt for a beautiful two. Larry Kinnear. the present cham pion, was second with a 77. His play ing has improved and he is now play ing a steady game. Fassler In Running. A. Fassler won his first round from Emerson Carey of Hutchinson by de fault, so that if Hurley beats Ander son this morning, he will play Fass ler in the afternoon. This will be a fair match with the odds in Hurley's favor. However, A. Fassler will bring one cup to Topeka as he won the Watson trophy with a nice 83. Meet In Finals Friday. Kinnear. the present champion, Is down in the last half of the bracket, so that providing both Hurley and Kinnear win all their matches they will not meet until in the finals Fri day. J. C. Wilson, Cooper and Humphreys are rJl down in the lower half of the draw. Wilson plays Crav ens, a local man, today and I look for him to come out a winner. Hum phreys is drawn against Claude Adams of Hutchinson, and will like far hava iiia bauds full in this match. "Chimmie" -Fadden. Chimmle's vbice, backed by an 87 pound lung test, will sing out, "State Jour-nal, Main Edition," to the de light of all the barefooted "newsies" on the avenue who have seen Chim mie's pictures in the papers, and wor shipped him from afar. Chimmie speaks with a broad New Tork accent and is going back to New York to marry the "goil" who re formed him. He tells his history briefly. He was born in Chicago he "f ergits" the year. He lived in a foundling's home until he was twelve, when he ran away and joined a cir cus. He was a real circus man. He sold peanuts. He left Barnum Bailey's In Pitts burg, then drifted to "N'Tawk." "I heaved some Irish confetti that's a brick at a fellow's jaw," confesses Chimmie. This heroic act entitled him to membership in the Cherry Hill gang. But. Chimmie wanted a gang of his own he gathered the dissatisfied gangsters, 1,000 of them. Into his fold and operated methodically between Fulton street and Fifty-ninth. He was &n expert pickpocket and slipped some change from a small girl who returned the next day to berate him. Then Chimmie reformed. He'd never been to school a day in his life, but he worked "like the dickens" he says so and spent two, years at Cornell. At this point Chimmie was interrupt ed. He hadn't begun to tell of his tri umphs, his offices and the lectures that have made him famous throughout the country. A howl went up from out doors. And Chimmie answered it. Dancing "newsies" with State Jour nals under, their arms set up the shout. "Chimmie, Chimmie Fadden. He's aU-ritaC v-RaJw -"Tal--b---! Chimmie." TO FORCE A FIGHT Mexicans Hare Resumed Snip ing on Funston's Men. Huerta Thought To Be Trying to Bring Intervention. Washington, June 24. Persistent reports of sniping by Mexican fed-n-n thn American outnosts at Vera Cruz and rumors of constitu tionalist further advances towara Mexico City served today to stir inter est in the Mexican situation. Although the war department will make public no reports from General Funston, regarding sniping on the American forces, it is known that there has been investigation of con tinued reports to that effect. There have been many inferences that Huerta's forces were attempting to provoke a fight with the American troopers and force intervention. The winner of the Wilson match will play the winner of the Hutton-Stewarl match with the odds in favor of Wil son being still in the fight Thursday morning. J. H. Cooper will play Charles Mack of Newton, and should he win, will play the winner of the Humphreys-Adams match. In the President's cup. Cole should win his match, as should Woodward and Catlin and I look for at least these three players to be still in on Thurs day morning's play. Dr. West should have an easy Journey in today's events as he plays T. Thom as of Emporia this morning, and should he win, will play either Payne of Hutchinson or J. E. Morgan of Em poria. New Trophy to Topeka. Charles Wolff should qualify In the' Also Ran cup and stands a good show of bringing the trophy to Topeka. I have tried to give a line on how the play should go in today's play but I may be wrong in several cases, but it will be by some unusual golf by some of the dark horses. The players enjoyed a dinner at the club house which was attended by nearly 100. Next Meet to Wichita. There also was a business meeting at which Wichita was awarded the meet for 1915. The officers for the coming year were elected as follows: Frank Oliver, president, Wichita; Grant Cham berlain. Hutchinson, vice president; Fred Robertson, Wichita, secretary and treasurer. The board of directors elected were: H. A. Auerbach, Topeka; T. H. Grif fith, Wichita; F. Shires. Ottawa; F. McManus, Ntwton; L. Buck, Emporia; J. J. Eberhardt, Salina: George Gano, Hutchinsoa, and M. W. Sterling, Law rence. Four of the Topeka golfers had narrow escape en route to Salina. The automobile driven by Charles Wolff with Harlow Hurley, Horace Hum phreys and Joe Wilson as passengers. struck a high railroad crossing near Manhattan and the front wheel was thrown off. The front axle w broken. The Topekans took a train from Manhattan to Salina. Had the accident 'occurred a few minutes be fore the machine would have been struck by a train. ..Continued an Pan Four.X Bull Moose Leaders Are Gath ering in New Tork.

June 24. -The Imperator with Colonel Roosevelt aboard will reach quarantine at 6:80 o'clock this evening, according to a wireless re ceived today at the offices of the Hamburg-American line. He would dock, said the message, at 8:30, but the company's officials realizing that these times were conditional upon the lifting of the fog, which has delayed all shipping, were awaiting further ad vices this afternoon. New York, June 24. The second home-coming today of CoL Roosevelt, within, two nonths, caused almost as much of a stir among Progressive party leaders and friends of the former presi dent as did his first on May 19, from South America. Today as last month. Col. Roosevelt's opinions on political questions drew Progressive leaders to this city and for some time the Roose velt planned ot leave the ship at quar- scene of many conferences. From the Imperator came wireless messages stating that CoL Roosevelt had spent much of his time since the big liner sailed in working on a speech he will deliver on June 30 at Pittsburg. He had entertained a party of friends at tea daily, the message added, and had confined his period of exercise to the early mcrnings. While on the trip, CoL Roosevelt has been under the care of Dr. Bossius, the ship's physician and appears to have recovered entirely from the attacks of fever which gave his friends much con cern on his arrival here from South America. Fogs last night and early today were expected to cause the Imperator to re duce her speed and she may not reach quarantine until tonight. CoL Roose velt planned to laeve the ship at quar antine and go lrect to Oyster Bay on board a yacht. Theodore Douglas Rob inson. Progressive state chairman, and George W. Perkins were the only party leaders who expected to meet the col onel on the yacht and g with him to Oyster Bay. Mrs. Roosevelt also planned to meet the -traveler on the yacht. Despite CoL Roosevelt's declaration, before he' left 'England, that he would not be a candidate for governor of New York state. Chairman Robinson de clared today that he had not given up hope and that he expected to be able to persuade his uncle to make the race. The demand that Mr. Roosevelt enter the gubernatorial race will be carried to Oyster Bay' later In the week by Cl-auncey J. Hamlin, Progressive lead er, of Erie county; O. B. Philips, re cently acting state chairman, and Horace S. Wilkinson of Syracuse. SWEET ANNIVERSARY. Fiftieth Celebration of Quaint New Jiingiana wedding in Topeka. Just fifty years ago Emmeline Hop kins, a quaint young bride In a laven der silk frock, joined hands with George Hopkins Sweet in Rochester, Rhode Island, and repeated, after the New England minister, "With this ring I thee wed." On June 23 the month of brides and roses in 1864 the two were married. Last night Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Sweet, who came to Kansas in 1868, celebrated their fif tieth wedding anniversary. Children and grandchildren offered congratu lations in the A. E. Sweet home, 709 Taylor street, where the dinner was held. 1 The bride wore white this time and smiled at the groom across the table with its gold basket of yellow roses. Each of tha Sweet boys were there all three of them. The anniversary was celebrated by a family dinner at the home of the gen eral manager of the Rock Island rail road. The colors were white and gold. Those who dined were: Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Sweet, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Sweet, Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Sweet, and Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Sweet of Soccora, N M., with their two children, Marguerite and Louise; Mrs. Corinne Breen, David Breen and II- L. Studevant. KING PETER QUITS. Belgrade, Servia, June 24. King Peter I of Servia was reported today to have abdicated the throne in favor of his second son. Prince Alexander. The king left Belgrade In the after noon for the baths at Vranya In the southern part of Servia, and a note issued by the official agency in an nouncing the king's departure did not say he had abdicated, but confined It self to the statement that his majesty had signed a ukase entrusting the government of Servia during his ab sence from the capital to Crown Prince Alexander. Servia is second in importance among the Balkan states. Servian sol diers are noted for their fighting qual ities and prove important factors in war. The king's abdication was made In favor of his second son, Tince Alex ander, as his eldest son. Prince George, in 1909 renounced his right of succes sion to the throne. The king's action was taken because of ill health. A royal proclamation announcing the fact Is to be Issued. CaU It Class Legislation. Washington, June 24. Petitions for and against the labor exemption clause in the Clayton antitrust bill and in the sundry civil bill are beginning to reach the White House. One memorial from the chamber of commerce of the United States purporting to represent the views of 250,000 business men re ceived today protests against the ex emptions as "class legislation in its worst Xorta." iet and Un- usual Pun! ent.

President Wilson today commuted to expire at once the sentences Imposed on Mich ael J. H. Hannon of Scranton, Pa.; Frank H. Painter of Omaha. Neb.: Fred J. Mooney of Duluth. Minn., and William Shu jo,, or. Chicago, all con vlcted lq the j dyr-imlte conspiracy rsssa -a. y t-'iyi i-v The other twenty defendants, in cluding the leaders, must, begin serv ing their sentences tomorrow in Leavenworth. Clemency for John H. Barry and Paul J. Motrin, both of St Louis, was withheld, while they have opportun ity to submit separate petitions. Hannon i-ad been sentenced to three years; Painter to two; Mooney and Schoop each got a year and a day. Barry got four years and Mor rln three. Those whose application for clemency was finally denied and the terms they must serve are as fol- j lows: Frank M. Ryan, head of the Iron Workers, Chicago, seven years; Eugene A. Clancy, San Francisco, six years; Michael J. Young, Boston, six I years; Frank C. Webb, New York, six years; Philip A. Cooley, New Orleans, six years; John T. Butler, Buffalo, six years; Charles T. Beum. Minneapolis, three years; Henry W. Weightner, Pittsburg, three years; Ernest W. Basey, Indianapolis, Ind., three years; W. Bert Brown, Kansas City, three years; J. E.

Higgins, Boston, two years; Michael J. Cunnane, Philadel phia, three years; William E .Riddin, Milwaukee, three years. No Reason Given. No memorandum was given out ac companying the president's action as sometimes is done in such cases, but it Is understood the president fol lowed closely the recommendation of Attorney General McReynolds. The -four men whose sentences were commuted had a minor part in the conspiracy, the government charged. Petitions setting out individually the applications of the other two for ex ecutive clemency will be received. The twenty-four men who applied for pardon were convicted of conspiracy and the transportation of dynamite In interstate commerce, for the wrecking of buildings and other structures in a labor war between the structural iron workers' organization and the employ ers. The noted cases grew directly out of the dynamiting of the Los Angeles Times building and the confession of the McNamara brothers. New trials have been granted and are pending for the following: Olaf A. Tveitmoe, San Francisco. William J. McCann, Kansas City. James E. Ray, Peoria, 111. Richard H. Houlihan, Chicago. Fred Sherman, Indianapolis. William Bernhardt, Cincinnati. Last Card Is Played. Chicago, June 24. Elijah N. Zo line, of counsel for the defendants in the dynamite cases, when informed of President Wilson's action on the peti tion for pardons, said that the con victed men would report at Leaven worth tomorrow with the exception of Eugene Clancy, who, as he must travel from California, was allowed until Friday to begin serving his sen tence. "The defendants understood that the last card hae been played in their behalf." said Mr. Zoline. "Their or ganization in a recent bulletin in formed them that those defendants to whom pardons were refused must keep their word and report at the penitentiary." Stabbed and Killed. Atchison. June 24. R. 'M. Adams of Anderson. Ind., was stabbed and hurled to his death from a freight train on which he was riding near here today. His body rolled under the train. The police- believe robbery was the motive. Declared To Be ihm Attains Greatest Severity In, the South Dakota City. Cuts Through 18 Blocks, Wip ing Out Many Buildings. St. Paul. June 24. Four killed In Minneapolis, two fatally and a score seriously injured at Watertown, 8. D., property damage estimated at more than $1,000,000, with an almost com plete prostration of telegraph and tel ephone communication for a number of hours, was the reported havoc to day of last night's wind and rainstorm which swept over North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota and Wiscon sin. Reports were Incomplete here at noon and It is quite possible that the loss of life and property damage to tals may be largely Increased when communication is restored in the four states. Apparently the storm struck with greatest severity at Watertown, where it cut through a section of the city for sixteen blocks with cyclonic force. Between 250 and S00 buildings were wiped out. Mrs. Carl Buckland and baby and Miss Marie E. Clove were caught in the wreckage of their homes and possibly fatally injured. In Minneapolis Esther Munson, 17 years old. wau killed when her home collapsed. Louis Grama and Margaret Kelly were drowned when their canoe was blown over in Lake Harriet. Miss Loretta Grams of ."ordan, Minn., also was caught in a canoe which was swamped in Lake Harriet, and drowned. Crops Badly Damaged. Chicago, June 24. Last night's wind storm caused no loss of life and only minor damage to crops, flimsy structures and to telegraph and tele phone wires. The storm was most se vere at Watertown, S. D., where it reached the proportions of a tornado, destroyed buildings over 30 blocks and injured 22 persons. Information that no great damage was done out CContintied on Peg Two.) PLAN CITY TENNIS Municipal Courts Provided in Next Year's Budget. Craze for Game Arouses Com mission to Action. Practically every park In Topeka will have a tennis court at this time next year. Municipal courts will be mentioned in Park Commissioner Porter's budget. Two courts will be placed in Garfield and in Willow park this summer. "Wherever we put one," said Hr. Porter, succinctly, "we'll put two." Topeka is tennis mad. People play before breakfast in the shady dawn. They play in the morning when the Kansas sun shines on the polished racquets; the balls fly as swift as the sunbeams. After five o'clock, when the business men are reaching home, nearly every court in the city is filled. Country club people play; Wash burn students play; girls join the Y. W. and boys the Y. M. simply for the use of the courts. Neighborhood clubs are organized and private courts maintained. "We'll undoubtedly have municipal courts next summer," was Commis sioner Porter's cheering statement to day; "we need more In the city. They'll be included in my general im provements. There ought to be two in every park. Maybe I'll put one in Holliday park at the intersection of Taylor and Western. Everybody seems to want courts." DIDIIT KIIOWIIE HAD IT Margaret Pettyjohn Says Downs Got Marriage License Unsolicited. A report ot the alleged marriage of Miss Margaret P. Pettyjohn, daugh ter of Dr. E. Pettyjohn, to Otis L. Downs at Kansas City, was denied by Miss Pettyjohn at her home today. Miss Pettyjohn reurned this morning from a visit to Kansas City, and stat ed that the report was unfounded. She denied knowledge of the marriage license which was obtained by Downs at the probate court on Monday evening and did not see the young man at Kansas City where she was a guest at a friend's home. Miss Pettyjohn affirmed that she bad been made the victim of the pre sumption of the youth who obtained the license with neither her knowledge nor consent.

THE TO?EHA DAILY f IONIC F0R THEM How Lawyers Will Entertain Supreme Court Justices. Camor of Retaliation of Call Issued From Topeka. After the Kansas lawyers have told the public what they think of their decisions, members of the supreme court will the following day- be the guests of the Shawnee county bar as sociation at a picnic near Berryton. The supreme court will receive the verdict of the Kansas bar in Topeka, July 9. The following day the Shaw- nee county bar will hold their annual picnic and have invited the supreme court Justices to attend. Robert Stone of Topeka was among the lawyers who signed the call for the remonstrance meeting in Topeka next month. This morning George McDermott, Stone's law partner, an nounced the holding of the annual picnic and through the county bar as sociation invited the supreme court Justices to participate. At the state house today was ru mored that a counter meeting might be held in Topeka next month to off set the effect of the remonstrance gathering of the 100 lawyers who are cetning to Topeka to tell what they think of the court and its alleged fail ure to observe precedents and confine Its rulings to authorities offered in parallel cases. Whether the counter meeting will be held Is yet a matter of speculation. IOWA LAW VOID. (Continued from Page One.) state board of parole; James C. Sand era warden of the penitentiary, and Austin F. Phitpott, penitentiary physi cian. The ease, says the decision, is one of diversity of citisenship, with federal questions presented by a bill in equity with a application for a tem porary injunction to restrain defend ants as state officers from enforcing chapter 187 of the cast of the thirty fifth general assembly (1913), author ising a surgical operation called vasec tomy on Idiots, feeble-minded, drunk ards, drug-fiends, epileptics, syphil itica, moral and sexual perverts, and mandatory as to criminals who have been twice convicted' of a felony. Twice Convicted of Felony. Complainant has been twice con victed of a felony, one of which was prior to the enactment of the statute in question (and in another state), and the other since in this state), and for the latter he is now imprisoned. The defendant board of parole in Feb ruary, 1914, made an order that the operation should be performed upon certain designated 'prisoners, including the complainant. This action was brought by the complainant for .the purpose of enjoining each and every one of the defendants from subjecting him to the operation. Since the action was instituted the board of parole under a written opin ion of the attorney general of the state has rescinded its order, and they and the prison physician say they will ob serve such opinion. The opinion of the attorney general is based upon- the proposition that the statute is ex post facto if either of the convictions was for an offense committed prior to the enactment of the statute. Complain ant's counsel in argument conceded the statute is not an expost facto one. The attorney general was in error when he advised the board of parole that the statute In question is void by reason of its being ex post facto, ex cept only as to prisoners who have been twice convicted for felonies com mitted since the enactment of the statute. Attorney General's Opinion. The defendant board of parole by rescinding the order subjecting com plainant to the surgical operation, and the defendant warden and physi cian through the attorney general now insist that an injunction should not Issue because it will serve no pur pose. There are two answers to this: death, resignation, and expiration of terms of office will bring other men into the positions now held by the defendants who. may not entertain the same views as these defendants. The opinion of the attorney general is ad visory only and is not at all binding on either these defendants or their successors in office. Again, the statute in question pro vides that certain persons may -be su o Jected to the surgical operation; but the latter part of section 1 provides that such operations shall be per formed upon prisoners who have been twice convicted of a felony, such as the complainant. It is the duty of an officer to follow the mandates of the statute. Of course, every officer must act at his peril under a statute that another party claims to be unconstitutional and void, but where a person will suffer an ir reparable injury If the statute to car ried out, the presumption is-that such statute will be observed and" that an injunction should issue to enjoin the enforcement of a void statute. The sole purpose of the operation is to destroy the power of procreation. The operation as originally performed was that of castration. There is a difference between the op eration of castration and vasectomy; castration being physically more severe than the other. But vasectomy in its results is much the coarser and more vulgar. But the purpose and result of the two operations are one and the same. But each operation is to destroy the power of procreation. It is, of course, to follow the man during -the balance of his life. The physical suffering may not be so great, but that is not the only test of cruel punlshmentr "the hu miliation, the degradation, the mental suffering are always present and known by all the public and will follow him, wheresoever he may go. This be longs to the dark ages, :'-n-" Where Society Comes Iat.:'A As, of course, all persons, concede that It would be better tor society if some men did not beget children: die eased, deformed, mentally Weak; chil dren and criminally Inclined-' are brought into the wdtld, oftentimes to their own shame and against the in terest of the public .But -are' they not in the minimum? And must the mar riage relation be formed under theee newly conceived laws based upon the brutalities of many centuries since and be allowed to take the place of the marriage relation formed along the true lines? Must the marriage re lation be based and enforced by stat ute according to the teachings of the farmer in selecting his male animals to be mated with certain femals ani mals only? While it is true that there are differ ences between the two operations of castration and vasectomy, and while it la true that the eriect upoa the man would be different EFseveral respects, yet the fact remains that the purpose and the same shame and humiliation and degradation and mental torture arc the' same n one case as in the other. And our c-nclusion is that the infliction of this penalty is in violation of the constitution which provides that cruel and unusual punishment shall not be Inflicted. DATTLE III BUTTE. (Continued from Pag one.) was wrecked by -the continued charge of explosives set off by insurgent miners. Showers of Glass. Hundreds of persons were struck by showers of flying glass, which rat tled down on the heads of people packed on the sidewalk every time a blast was set off. Dynamiting did not cease until after midnight after more than a score of blasts had been exploded and the Fed eration hall practically had been de molished, the wall in "front and back having been blown out and the roof caved to the ground. Leaders of the new union with their lieutenants spent most of the night urging the men to retire to their homes. The whereabouts of Charles H. Moyer, president of the Western Federation of Miners, who fled the miners' hall when the firing began, is a matter of conjecture. He got into an automobile and was driven rapidly away. There was a report that he had taken refuge in the county Jail, but Sheriff Driscoll denied this, offer ing to conduct a searching party through the prison. The belief prevailed that Moyer and other Federation officials have left town. McDonald's Statement. President Michael McDonald of the new Butte mine workers' union, said: "I don't care to make an official statement which would in any way place the blame for last night's occur rence. It was not done with our knowledge or consent. We would not have had any trouble start for the world and it was not in our power to pre vent it. The first shot was fired by the Western Federationists. I don't know whether they intended to kill that poor fellow. I hope they did not but they were responsible for what happened. The people who know the actual con ditions will not blame us for what .hap pened. We tried our best to keep or der." Operations were suspended at the Stuart and Original mines in con sequence of the dynamite raid at these mines. These properties resumed op erations with the morning shifts. Both mines are near the miners hall. All the other mines continued at work and the managers state there is no likelihood of a shutdown. PLAYING IS GOOD. (Continued from Page One.)

HERE ATTO'CLQCK Circus Train in Fair Grounds Tomorrow. Morning. Thirty-Seren Cars of Interest for Topeka kiddles. Whhos la kiddies want to see the! circus train come in? They'll packAp at midnight at Emporia. Thirty-seven cars will be loaded elephants, lions, horses, cowboys, dancers, snake charmers and Buffalo Bill with his rifle. They're due in the fair grounds at 7 o'clock. If you set the alarm clock at 6:30 and hustle perhaps you'll be in time to see them unload. Sells-Floto, with Buffalo Bill in tow. arrive in Topeka three hours after sun-up. The parade leaves the tents at 10:30. Every, youngster whose father has an office on Kansas avenue says, "Daddy, I'll be there.'" Daddy remembers the thrills of the roads,- the peanuts and the callipoo and responds, "All right, son and I've got a ticket." Only the boy who has seen it knows the excitement of the unloading of the circus. The elephans lumbering to their tents shouting keepers flying figures painted wagons. "Look out o' the way, boy,'! "yowls the ballyhoo men and the kiddle, shivers shooting up his spine, leaps from the path of the lion. Maybe he's lucky enough to be allowed to carry a bucket of water to the ele phant. Perhaps he tightens a rope in the big tent. Anyhow., he returns to breakfast with a huge appetite, great excitement and a list of anecdotes as long as Abraham Lincoln's. The doors 'Open at 1:16 tomorrow afternoon; an hour later the perform ance begins. .There's everything the circus used to have, and lots of things that are new. There's the robbing of the Deadwood stage coach, the blood thirsty shouts of the Indian braves and the haloos of the rescuing cowboys. Colonel William Frederick Cody al ways receives a cheer. Princes and princesses across the big pond have applauded him. All he has to do is sweep his sombrero from his head, make a low bow and hear the thou sands of spectators howl with appre ciation. Then comes the shooting same stunts hes' being doing for years and years, and years, since he left his father's cabin on the Kansas prairies. There was hardly a small boy in To peka today who didn't receive a big In the ribs today and respond to the eager, "oln to the circus?" with a Ju bilant. "You bet." SENATE CAUSES DELAY Reserve System WOl Not Be In Work ing Order Before September 1. Washington. June 84. Although Aug- gust 1 is the date which treasury de partment officials originally set as the probable time ior tne organization the federal court reserve banks, it- no seems likely that the organization will be not earlier than September L The senate's delay in the confirmation of members of the federal reserve board and delay In the choice of directors for the federal reserve banks will defeat the plan to open on August 1. The organisation committee is now hnallv nnrazed in comDiline lists Of nominations for directorships '.'In- the 12 federal reserve banks. After the com plete list has been compiled it will be submitted to the electors named by all member banks. These electors in turn must cast their ballots for direc tors within fifteen days after the re ceipt by them of the list of nominees. Many of the member banks are sit uated so remotely that it will take over a week for their ballots to reach the treasury department and more than a month to complete the election after the list has been mailed., -.After six directors have been prop erty elected by member banks, three directors will be named by the federal reserve board. Then the nine directors shall select one of their number for chairman. All this is preliminary to the actual work of providing banking quarters and opening the institutions for business. At the first meeting of the nine di rectors of each federal reserve bank the duty will devolve upon them of designating one member of each of the A, B and C classes whose term shall expire in one year, one member of each class whose term shall be two years and ope of each class who shall serve a three year term. After this original term designation all directors will be selected for a three year term. STORM KILLS 4. (Continued From Page One.) side Watertown was gained from rail roads in the storm area.

Not that it matter much, but the Saturday weather forecast for here abouts predicted a fair Sunday. Kansas appears to have as much dif ficulty as ever in striking a happy me dium between a drought and floods. Northeastern Kansa" hMZ.??nt,y experienced convincing proof of the contention that it never rains ".but it pours. ,-vs And the general business depression alio enjoys the distinction of being ex ceedingly material as well as psycho logical. Somebody has blundered. A Brit ish vessel should have been the first one to make the trip through the Panama canal. President Wilson says that all he wants in the fight over trust legisla tion is a square deal. Others to the controversy are in the same boat. Now that Colonel Roosevelt has a crippled larynx he surely ought to be able to get some valuable pointers from Ton Lind on the art of keeping silent. An unusual turn of fate brought about the sinking of that Mississippi river excursion steamer, after, .she dis charged nearly all of her thousand passengers. Even the 151 indictments that have been found against a group of default ing Chicago cankers will not be suffi cient to restore a single penny to any of the depositors. No doubt about the wisdom of Glenn H. Curtiss. He is building a flying boat in which another fellow will at tempt to navigate the air between America and Europe. How nervy for the Democratic con gressmen from KanspsI They want Mr. Bryan to stump the state for them, and right at a time when' the Chau tauqua picking is the richest. That one of the deputation of mili tants who were received In audience by Premier -Asqulth did not toss bombs at him while another belabored him with a whip is rather inexplicable. Why the opposition in the senate to the nominations for the federal reserve board? Haven't the senators learned by this time that they are merely on the job to do the bidding of President Wilson? According to government experts the hen would be even more helpful without the rooster. Hence the new war-cry: "Swat the rooster." Nor is there any telling where this feminist movement will end. President Wilson must be striving for a place of distinction In the Hum orists club. He is in favor of selling outworn American battleships to Greece only on the understanding that Greece will not use them for the pur poses of war. One would think that there would be room enough in the sky for th man-birds to stage their stunts with out danger to each other. But It ap pears that stringent laws will have to be enacted to control and regulate the jay aviators. Over In Austria the oth er day there was a collision between an aeroplane and a dirigible. Nine men lost their lives In It. And the trouble in the Bull Moose ranks between the Pinchots and Per kins suggests the real reason why the Progressive party could never have at tained success. It la Impossible that a political party -ould be organised along sufficiently istic lines to con tain and be entirely- satisfactory ,to many of the gentlemen of prominence who joined the Roosevelt movement In 1912. Too. many or them Insist on be ing the whole show. .v'i A WORLD CAPITAL. A grandly Idealistic project has re cently been launched by an Interna tional organisation' known as the "World Conscience Society." r The de tails and plan were conceived and per fected after ten years of altruistic la bor and study on. the part of Hendrik Christian Anderson, an Amerlcan Scsndlnaviac sculptor residing in Rome, assisted by some 40 sculptors, artists, engineers, architects, and scientists, and has for Its object the establish ment of an ideal world city, where all International activities are to have their home and inspiration. A review of the massive and beauti full illustrated volume which, embodies the Plan in Its details was recently published In the Monthly Bulletin of the Pan American Union. .xi'This proposed international city" writes the 'reviewer "is to be a city of light, health, wide avenues, parks, playgrounds, fountains, lagoons., and noble buildings. It Is to be a city without slums, a city of ef ficiency, convenience and beauty. Not only in structure, plan, and equipment will it be the ideal city, but it is Intend ed to become the intellectual, artistic, and practical International capital of the world; a clearing bo'ise for the various social, cultural, scientific and political aspirations of humanity. "As designed it will cover some 10 square miles of ground. Its architect ural plans -re so drawn that it can be built at almost any spot accessible to the sea that the. nations may choose. While, there is ample room within the limits of the city for homes of the permanent inhabitants and the neces sary business and manufacturing plants, the heart of the city is composed of buildings edapted to t-,e unification of international Interests. .These are grouped into three centers devoted re spectively to science, art, and physical culture. The scientific center is con nected with the center of art by the broad Avenue of Nations, flanked on either side by palaces which will house ambassadors and delegates represent ing their respective nations. It has for its crowning motif the gigantic Tower of Progress, which rises to the height of 1,000 feet or more. On the summit of this tower will be installed a wireless te.egraphy plant and on the lower floor of its colossal base will be found a world printing press. "The tower rises In the midst of a circular space set apart for interna tional congress buildings for medicine, surgery, hygiene, law and criminology, electricity and invention, agriculture and transportation, all of which fire provided with halls, libraries, museums, and accessory offices. To the northeast Is the International Hall of Justice and to the southwest the Temple of Re ligions. Completing the concention stand an international br.nk or clean ing house and a world reference library, while in gardens near by are found the international institutes of higher learn ing. The art center is connected with the physical culture center by means of gardens devoted to horticulture, natural history, xoology, and botany. An imposing Temple of Art, forming the chief monument of this center, has been planned with spacious halls and galleries for sculpture and painting, surrounding a vast auditorium. The physical center is intended to facilitate a world reunion of athleticism and to promote the scientific development of the human form In all nations. A vast stadium is its central feature. Near it is a large nalatorium, gymnasia for men P.nd women, and open fields and athletic quadrangles for international exposi tions and contests.". .The estimated cost of creating such a city, according to the author of the plan, would not be over $100,000,000, a sum that would not severely tax the re sources of the governments of the world if equitably distributed. The interna tional committee of the organization is to determine the site and location of the cltv at its meeting next year. Numerous places have been mentioned, such as the Dutch coast near The Hague; the Riviera, near Cannes; Turvueren, near Brussels; St. Germain. on Lave, near Paris; the Marmora coast, near Con stantinople; the New Jersey coast, near Lakewood; the Isthmus of Panama; and recently the Island of Cuba. Many leaders In art, science, education and world politics in the various countries of the civilized globe are taking an active interest in the movement, and the meeting of the international com mittee next year will create a world wide interest.

(By Laura R. Burke.) V "Grayson, there's a girl down In our blackberry patch!" "Ours?" with the languid sarcasm that tormented his mother beyond en durance. "Yes, ours! 1 Just because the farm costs us nothing is no reason why I shouldn't say 'ours.' It belongs to us as long aa we are here, and I don't Intend to have any one stealing our berries. Grayson Langdon rattled the change In his white flannel trousers thoughtfully. "Well, mother, remem ber the Golden Rule. There are car loads of berries. t. Mrs.-- Langdon. shading' her eyes from the' afternoon sun the better to aee tne intruder, turned angrily. i uecwe, tne sot a, big chip basket. Do you ''suppose she intends to steal the full of it? Grayson Lang- don, you go down there this minute and order her off the place!" "Pardon me, mother. I won't -do. any such thing." "Oh, very well! I'll tell her myself. It seems that college isn't teaching you much spunk." Mrs. Langdon, arms akimbo, started for the patch. "Here, mother, come back. I'll go." Mrs. Langdon looked relieved. Grayson pulled his hat down over his eyes, stuck his hands deep down In his pockets and advanced upon the enemy. "Dear knows what mother would say to her," he mused, looking curi ously toward the bobbing sunbonnet among the berry bushes., "Wonder if she is pretty! If she Is, how under the canopy am I going to break the news to her that she's got to 'git.' Women are funny! Here mother and dad are having a whole summer's vacation and all the stuff on the blooming place for nothing, just because the owner .hap pens to be rich and hiking off to Eu rope, and would like to- feel that the old homestead is in good -careful hands while she's gone. And yet mother, bless her heart A terrified scream ahead of him In the midst cf the bushes Interrupted his philosophical revery. With a bound he was over the fence and tear ing his way through the briars toward the girl who was backing away in hor ror from something upon the ground. He saw what it was instantly, a harmless gurter snake whose siesta, in the cool shade of the bushes had been rudely disturbed. Grayson caught a glimpse of its tail as it wrig gled away to safety under a dense mass of bushes In the opposite direc tion taken by the girl. He also noticed the girl's face un der the bonnet, as she stood too ter rified to speak, and 'swaying slightly as she clutched at the bushes fqr sup port. She was surprisingly beautiful. "I I'm caught fast!" she managed to whisper with dry lips. "Please, help me to get away." "Don't be frightened," he tried to assure her. "The snake escaped be fore I could kill it; but really it's a very harmless kind. I believe it's as badly scared as as She smiled wanly. "As I am Yes, I know I'm a coward. But I've always had a horror of snakes... Ugh! I think I'll go, if you'll please "Oh, I beg your pardon. I forgot that you cannot move. This beastly branch has briars as lonar ax There, I'm afraid I tore your dress!" i nat aoesn t matter. Thank you so much! I guess I won't risk a sec ond snake, so I'll go back to the house. Where are my berries?" "They are over here, but I'm afraid when you jumped you kicked over your arternpon's work.' The basket's upset and the berries are on the ground." Oh, dear!" ruefully. "And mother there by the federal authorities work wanted Mrs. Pelton to make them J ing on the case. Fred Robertson, dis into wine for her!

If you will tell me where you live, 1 I may be of service if you'll let mo. I love to gather berries, and and If yo udon't mind, I'll gather a basket ful and take them over." She smiled bewitch! ngly. "That would be very nice and kind, and I am sure mother will appreciate It. We are staying at the Pelton farm, the first house you come to if you follow the road. It is about a half mile. My name is Marie Storm. Bv the way, I went up to your housed be fore I started to pick berries, but mere was no one around. I was go-' ins io ass: permission. Hut there are millions of berries, and I didn't sup pose your mother would mind if I didn't wait." "I guess father and' mother were out in the garden. I came out from town a few minutes ago. on the two ten. The next time you call won't you please wait until I get home," he ventured. She laughed prettily. "I didn't know there was a you," she returned. Grayson picked berries until sun down, after the fair trespasser ha1 gone. His mother took the basket when he reached the porch. He watched her set it on a high shelf to keep until morning. "Had a hard time getting rid of her, didn't you?" "Yes, dreadful!" "Wanted to argue, didn't she?" "Oh, not so much!" "Find out her name? "Yes. Her name's Storm. She's staying at the Pelton's with her mother." "Storm! Storm! That's the name of the people who own this farm. Maybe some relation. Everybody in the county is related." The next morning the berries were gone. Mrs. Langdon's rage knew no bounds. The man and his wife who did the. farm work knew nothing about them. Grayson's -face was us impenetrable as the -sphynx. No one knew anything. But the four gal lons of berries were gone! r "Never mind, mother. There's mil lions of them. I'll pick the whole shooting match for you today. To morrow I'm going to quit the country for good. Think you and dad can manage alone?" "Now, Grayson Langdon, what's the matter next? Here you are away at school all year and I think you might stay with us now." Grayson puffed thoughtfully at his cigarette for a minute. He was going over some very precious minutes, spent tne night berore with a cerrain girl who had chestnut curls and laughing gray eyes. "Well, mother, it's this way. I'n, going to chuck school, if you and dad don't mind. I heard of a chance for a good position and I think I'll take it. It's time I'm learning how to make a living. I know enough calculus and Greek now, I guess, to get along on. I'll keep bach in the city house until you come home in the fall. By the way. mother, I heard last night that the Storms at the Pelton's are the ones who own this place." Giayson Langdon! And we ordered them off their very own property. Good gracious, what have we done? I thought they were In Europe." "They were starting when Mrs. Storm became ill. So they went over to' Pelton's to make room f -r us Id this' house. She's better now. They leave tomorrow." And while Mrs. Langdon worried all the next day about the wording of her apology, her son was at the d.-?ck say ing goodby to a gray-eyed girl, who promised to write to him from beyond the seas.

Mary Turner, missing from Topeka since last Thursday, is In the hands of federal authorities at Dallas, Tex as, according to notification received by her mother last night. According to unconfirmed reports of statements made by her she was overpowered in Topeka by one of the- two men with whom she was last seen talking near the corner of Fourth and Monroe streets and put on a train here im mediately. Her story waa that a mys terious "drug gun"- waa employed by one of the men, who discharged an anesthetic under her nose. She was at Arkansas City when she regained consciousness but was prevented leav ing the train. Her captors, she said, took her to Dallas from Fort 'Worth, where they had confined her In a room by taking away her clothing. Becoming alarmed at Dallas she was- abandoned there and got into communication with fed eral authorities, who are now looking for the man who registered as H. H. Hall of DesvMoines when he took the Turner girl to the Trinity hotel in Fort Worth. An official report of the case has been asked for,, by District Attorney Robertson, whose prompt action Monday put Texas federal authorities on the trail of the Turner girl. Sheriff L. L. Kiene, who has done the most work on the case, this morn ing confirmed the report of the loca tion of the missing girl but stated that no details of an authoritative na ture have as yet been received. P. Turner, of 2508 Fillmore street, father of Mary Turner, left for Dal las this morning to Join his daughter. whose presence has been required at Kansas City, but declined to make its full nature public. "I am convinced there Is matter in this case calling for a prosecution un der the Mann act It is reported that the police matron of Dallas has given an interview discrediting the girl's claim to having been forcibly abducted.

Final figures on the 1913. cotton crop announced to day by the census bureau, place it as the largest the United States) baa ever grown, with the exception of that of 1911. At the same time the estimate of the total value of the crop shows it was the most valuable ever produced, it being worth 1,043,760,000. The Quantity of cotton ginned from the 1913 crop, counting round as half bales and excluding linters waa 13,982, 811 running bales or 14456,486 bales of 500 pounds gross weight Cotton seed produced waa 6,306.000 ton of which 4,579,508 tons were crushed. The value of the cotton is estimated at 3887,160,000, and of the seed $150, 600,000. An interesting feature of the 1913 pro duction was the crop ot the Imperial valley in southern California, where 28, 838 bales were grown.. It has been re ported the acreage planted this year in the Imperial valley will show a large increase while the production is vari ously estimated at from fifty thousand to one hundred thousand bales. Last year's production waa more than double that of any previous year there, where commercial growing of cotton has been in progress only a few years. Another Teature was the production in Arizona, where 2,299 bales were ginned. the largest part of which possessed the same characteristics aa that grown In Egypt The 1914 area shows a large in. crease, variously estimated, at from 12,000 to 16-.000 acres. AERIAL ESCORT. flying Guard of Honor at Funeral of Aviators. Vienna, June 24. An escort of 20 aeroplanes, flying mourning flags and manned by aviators from several na tions, formed a flying guard of honor at the funeral today of the nine Aus trian officers and men killed in" the tragic air catastrophe of last Saturday. An enormous concourse of people, in cluding several archdukes, members, of the Austrian cabinet -and foreign mili tary attaches were present. While the funeral service waa in progress the small air craft circled round and round the cemetery and then flew off in company. The nine vic tims of the disaster were Johann Hausawlrt, Lieutenants Ernest Hot stetter. Flats. Hocsta. Bruer and Hald- tnger; corporals Hadina and Weber, ana engineer Kammerer. The aerial tragedy which cost the lives of the nine Austrian aviators bur ied today occurred during Austrian army maneuvers. A military dirigible was participating in the movements and was followed by an aeroplane. The smaller craft soared above the balloon during the sham battle, with the object of taking up a position to drop on its adversary a mimic bomb. The pilot of the aeroplane approached so closely that one of the wings of his plane ripped the great balloon causing an immeoiaie explosion. puts o. k. o;i jo::es. Man Who Prosecuted Harvester Trust Says He U All Right. Washington, June 24. Edwin P. Grosvenor of New York, who as as sistant attorney general, began the government's antitrust suit against the International Harvester company, has written President Wilson that Thos. D. Jones, recently nominated for the federal reserve board, had no con nection with any of the practices the government contends were illegal. The letter was given out today, at the White House, as Justifying the president's recent declaration to Chair man Owen of the senate banking committee that there was nothing in Mr. Jones's relations with the harvest er corporation to disqualify him from serving on the federal board. Mr. Grosvenor now is a partner of former Attorney General Wickersham- Harvester Trust Pays Fine. Jefferson City, June 24.

REGULAR PITCHERS' BATTLE But Harrington Weakened in the Last Inning. Lou McAllister Led Team Cooley Denied Admission. Denver, June 24. With the team under the leadership of the veteran, Lou McAllister, the Topeka club won the final game of the series with the Bears here by the score of 4 to 1. This gives them an even break on the series. The game was a pitchers' battle between Ridgeway of Topeka and Harrington of Denver. Owing o the temporary suspension of Manager Dick Cooley by President Tip O'Neill, Dick Cooley, manager of the Topeka club, was denied admis sion to Broadway park. Pitchers Ridgeway and Harrington engaged In a pitchers' battle for eight innings with honors about even and each club had scored but one run. but in the first part of the ninth, Harring ton weakened and the Topekans scored three runs. Ridgeway maintained his gait in the last part of the ninth in ning and held the Bears without an other score. Topeka vas the first to score and that was in the first inning. Cochran and Potts were out anil Forsythe drew a pass, Koerner singled and Forsythe cored. Denver's only run was scored In the fifth inning, when Block and Fisher doubled in succession. Ridge way. pitching for Topeka, was master of the Bears at all times except one inning. Forsythe opened the ninth inning with a three-base drive. Harrington intentionally walked Koerner to get Rapps and the latter struck out. Tal lion followed and hit a home run to right field and the three runs re sulted. This was the second home run of the series for Tallion. The youngster played a great game during the en tire series. Koerner, the big first baseman, who has been in a batting slump, has connected with the ball squarely in the last two games and appears to be recovering his old time form. The score: TOPEKA.

The Cooleysox certainly- gave the Denver club- a surprise in pressing even in the doubleheaders Saturday and Sunday. The four new men on the club Roistgl, Potts. Ridgeway and Lattlmora had never shown in Denver before and Pyke Johnson claims that they performed satisfactorily. Reisigl was forced to retire from the second game Saturday when he stopped Harry Cassldy's liner. His band was split and Ridgeway finished the game. The Cooleysox presented -a formid able appearance but the News is un able to give Cooley credit for the new life and says that the increase in "pep" is just a matter of judgment. Jack Holland and Barney Reilly have formed a peace pact and now Holland is trying to induce Barney to sign a contract. As the Gazette writer says: Fans are responsible for the ill-feeling which has existed, by "news packing." but all troubles have been settled. Barney has engaged In the movie busi ness but may be induced to take Rip Watson's place at second. In that event. Rip would be delegated to an outfield position. Grover Gilmore, with Denver last year, but now with the Kansas City Federals, has hit his stride and is landing on the ball frequently. Gil more is a vicious hitter when going his natural pace. Barney Schreiber, with the Denver club, is leading the Western League pitchers with four games won and had not lose a game until last Sunday when the Cooleysox defeated him. But at that, Barney has taken part in 18 games. He was thought to be about "all in" when the Denver club was here early in the season. Pitcher Sterzer of" the Drummers club is not going quite as well as a short time ago and Is getting his bumps with regularity But two men on the Western League circuit have hit for a greater number of bases than Phil Koerner. Koerner Is credited with 71 hits, for 109 bases, 18 two base hits, 4 three base hits and 4 home runs. Sheddon Le Jeune of the Sioux City club is second with 71 hits, for 114 bases, 17 two base hits, 7 triples and 4 home runs. Jim Kane of the Sioux City club leads all with 116 bases, 75 hits, 15 two baggers, 4 three bag gers and. 6 home runs. Tallion is credited with 107 bases, 69 hits, 13 two baggers, 11 triples and one home run. But 20 points separated the' teams of the Western League in fielding in the averages which were issued last week. Des Moines leads with .966, Wichita was last with .946 and Topeka was sev enth with .951. Nicholson of Wichita leads the league in base stealing with 27, George Wat son of Omaha is second with 2S, Le Jeune of Sioux City is third with 20 and George Cochran and Rip Watson of St. Joe are tied for fourth place with 19 each.' Forsythe has stolen 16. Cochran is making a much better showing on the paths than last year. Tom Hughes, with Topeka several years ago and who was sold to the New York Americans by Dick Cooley, Is one of the leading pitchers of the International League. Clint Rogge, with Des Moines last year but now with" To ronto and two other men besides Hughes, have won eight and lost two each. St. Joe Gazette: Over in Topeka it is alleged that the reason St Joseph did no better than to break even on its last road trip is that "one of the St Joseph sportine- editors accompan ied the team." Gee, we wonder why Topeka doesn't win. Maybe it's be cause one of the Topeka sport writers doesn't commit suicide. Now that organized baseball is talk ing about organizing another major league, in order to combat the Federal invasion, the smaller towns of the Western League are vitally interested. Should the third major league be 'or ganized to include towns of the Inter national and major leagues the American Association, and probably the Coast League, will demand the same recognition, because all of them wish to avoid the draft rule resulting in the loss of their -best performers. Should such recognition be given them, and it could hardly be denied them, it is more than probable that the larger towns of the Western League will be raised to a class "AA" classi fication. Not more than three, and probably only two towns of the pres ent Western League circuit, could hope for such recognition, and it is not con sidered necessary to discuss the re sult of such promotion at that time: but the Western League circuit would be so badly cut up, even with the loss of one town, that it would not be able to maintain its old time class. The Federal League clubs are not drawing, but that is not the question. These clubs are in existence and will be at least for the remainder of the season. Nothing but the support of the courts to organised baseball can rob the Feds of their sting. Even the Out law League will find some plan of oper ation. The Federal League has fur nished miles of copy for sport writers In the last year or more, and only by this publicity system have they at tained the limited success which they are enjoying. ROOT III PARADE Topekan Will RMe in Buffalo Bin's Stage Coach. In accordance with the custom which he has observed on each of his previous visits here "Buffalo Bill" has invited Frank A. Root of 829 North Quincy street, to ride on the old Concord stage coach in the parade.' An Invi tation to Mr. Root came by wire from Pueblo, Colo., advising him that his companion of 80 years ago when the Topekan was a messenger of the Wells Fargo on the overland stage run would expect him to take his place on top of the coach when it appears here in the parade of the Sells-Floto circus Thursday morning.- f The message read: "Mr. Frank A.

SARTi:i IS FILLED WITH HOPE i Promises to Bring Party Lead- ers to Kansas. Dykes Will Visit 22 Sixth Dis trict Counties. Sam Graybill's statement that Con gressman Neeley will carry JO of the J 2 counties of the Seventh district in the Democratic senatorial race, has roused J. N. Herr to indignantly re ply that W. L. Brown and not Neeley will carry the district. He adds that Neeley should be In Washington up holding the policies of the national administration and not mixing in the Kansas fls-ht. In his answer to Gray bill's claims that Neeley will easily win the senatorial nomination, tne super lntendent of the Hutchinson reforma tory adds a. few expressions that are not tended to raise the standard of Democratic harmony. "The assertion that Mr. Neeley will carry 30 out of the 32 counties in the Seventh district, is one of the rarest Jokes Mr. Graybill has pulled off in a long time," saia Merr. -wun a wiae awake, live Farrelly club in Mr. Nee ley's homo town, a Sapp for senator club, and the hundreds of good Demo crats In Reno county who' will support Major Brown, if Sam's 30 out of 32 assertion is to be .credited surely Reno is one of the two he had in mind that he could not carry. The fact of the matter is Mr. Neeley is slipping badly all over the Seventh district. His leaving congress and 'hta duties there to campaign for United States senator is pleasing the people out there about aa much as It did President Wilson, who recently scored the congressmen for deserting their duties to look after their political fences. With the anti trust legislation which was promised by the Democratic party pending, with a farm credits bill going to the scrap heap, apparently, and which Mr. Neeley promised the farmers of Kansas he wculd see went through this session, with the tons of literature he is franking out while every other candidate is paying his own postage, is causing Democrats to dormf think ing, which will be followed later by their verdict at the primaries.. "Mr. Neeley has been treated bet ter by his party than any mar. ever in Kansas politics, In any party. Th3 Democratic party does not owe him anything. The question of remember ing men who made It possible to elect United States senators In preference to men who have been in the state only a few years, is going to cut consider able Ice In this campaign, and Mr. Stubbs' brother-in-law will wake up the next day after the primaries, in my judgment, and find he was ab ui fouith in the race. t Claims District for Brown. The best informed DeirrtiifSte all ovei the Seventh district- claim that Major Brown will have a substantial majority in the "Seventh "district, ar-d tbfit if he secures a good vote ovusiCe of this district, he will be the nomi nee beyond question, especially as he Is strong with the farmers and rtockme in whose ranks he belongs. Everybody knows that our present delegation is made up of newspaper men and law yers, and also knows that every man on the ticket, with the exception of Major Brown is a professional man. "I want to say to Major, Brown's friends over the state:,i 'Sit steady in the boat and do not M, stampeded by hot air tories, but fctiep 'ott.' Working for him, and beyond-qtoestlotr" he will m uur nominee, una uir hucti wiu put up a campaign, the effects of -which will reach down to the county officers, and not only elect himself but be a strong factor in the success of the state, congressional and county tick ets.' "I might ask Mr. 'Graybill, while he has evidently so much time to devote to the interests of his candidate, if he thinks it fair for Mr. Neeley to use his franking privilege making a cam paign on the salary of $7,600 and per quisites a year, in order to fool the Democrats of Kansas.; I,, would also like to have him explain whether Mr. Necley's name appears' as voting for or against, the conference committee's report on the passage of the tariff bill also on the currency law, and to tell the Democrats of Kansas if he was in Vou'Ufind excellent style., solid comfort and exceptional service in Felix Quality Clothes Midsummer models; quarter and half lined 2-piece suits at $20 and $25 Genuine "lire Lasttc" Belts 75c Si.' -l i;Vftirii-i' 1 Washington during the' time these votes were taken, or was' be in Kan sas laying his wires for United -States senator.

Sartin of' the Progres sive state committee, declares that the petitions presented by the various. Bull Moose candidates indicates the new party will pqll a surprisingly heavy vote in the November election. -offersy detaoin shrdlu cmfwyp etaotau "The eight congressional candidates presented petitions from 98 counties and containing more than 7,000 names," said Sartin. "We have practically full tickets in 70 counties and partial tick ets in 15 other counties. There is no distinction between the Democratic and Republican parties in Kansas so far as the voters are concerned. The promises of leaders of both sides are used only as subterfuges to get office and deceive the public. Kansas Pro gressives will make a great fight this fall. Allen and Murdock will both stump the ttate. Then we have the prom Ise that Col. Roosevelt, Hiram John son, Senator Heveredge. Charles Sum ner Ruird of Massachusetts Bcinl-ridgc Colby of New Tork. Clifford Pinchot, Miles Poindexter, Raymond Bobbins and Judge Ben Lindsay are coming to Kansas to help in our fight. And when the votes are counted the night of No vember 3, the Kansas Progressives ex pect to poll a vote that will paralyse the leaders of both of the old parties." Dykes Is Busy.'. Dr. J. B. Dykes of Lebanor is ranking a vigorous campaign for congress in the Sixth district, although he has no of position for the Republican nomi nation In August. Dykes was in To peka this week to file hi nomination papers and declared that, he expected to visit every county In the Sixth dis trict this fall. He has already made number of speeches in his district and expects to conduct an active speech making campaign. In the election this fall, Dr. Dykes will oppose John R. Connelley, Democrat, who is a candi date for re-election. COCA COLA PLANT Company Builds 12-Story Build ing in Kansas City. Quarter of a million for West- era Headquarters. .Kansas City. Mo..'

The con tract was awarded today for the erec tion of the 12 story Joca Cola building on the site purchased last year by the Coca Cola company at the southeast coriier of Grand avenue and Awsnty- first street. The Swenson Construc tion company of this city, awarded the general contract, began to assemble equipment this morning and actual work will begin immediately. Tne building will be ready for occupancy early next spring. The building will be 165 feet high, filling a triangular site with 166 feet frontage on Grand avenue and 102 feet on Twenty-first street. It will be of re-enforced concrete, of the flat ceil ing type as developed .bythe, company's engineer, Arthur1 Tufts."'VFhe- structure' will be-faced with brick, and trimmed with terra cotta.

Where Protestant, Catholic and Jew May Meet on Common Ground. Chicago, June 24.-"Co-operation by Protestant, Catholic and Jew in the matter of Bible reading in the public schools is an indication of the growing spirit of brotherly regard and tolera tion." said Marion Lawrence, secretary of the International Sunday School as sociation, at today s session of the fourteenth triennial convention. "This is a great step forward in the study and recognition of the Bible. Encour agement of the reading in public, of those portions of the Bible agreed upon by all, is the aim of such co-operation. Perhaps one of the most significant advances that has been made in Sun day school work is that of recognizing the church and the Sunday school in the regular work of the day school," said Mr. Lawrence. 1 "The different religious bodies have, i apparently, been tajdng it for granted that there is no.commolr-ground of co operation in the matter of Bible study, but such is not the fact and we have found that our fears that reconcilia-j lion ana co-ope ration in tnis work would be impossible, were groundless. Surely the giving of credits in public schools, for Bible study done In the churches, is a new thing to most of us and opens up possibilities we had never dreamed of."

TAKE CARE CFLlOTCnmra Economical and Useful Expert ditnre of Revenues." Engineer Hay Be Placed Head of Organisation. at Members of the Kansas Automobile association propose the creation of a state highways commission to super vise the roads and bridges and build better highways. The expense will be met by the automobile owners of the state and not by the tax payers. A bill looking to this radical change in the expense of road building and maintenance will be offered in the next session cf the state legislature. For weeks the plan has been under consideration by the state highway engineer and officers of the roads and automobile associations. Already the cost of road building and mainte nance is being met through .the provi sions of the state' law providing for a license for all automobiles and motor cycles. Under this law, 34.25 goes into actual road building each year as a tax on each automobile. Each mo torcycle owner contributes directly to road building the sum of 31.70 a year. There are additional fees for extra license tags and fees for dealer's tags. Revenue from the motor licenses Is expected to maintain the roads under the direction of a highways commis sion. t The measure for the creation of the commission will be backed in the leg islature by members and officers of the Kansas -automobile association. It is probable that the bill will seek not only to create a highways commit sion, but to provide a reasonable sal. ary and to place the state highway engineer at the head of the commis sion or make him an ex officio mem ber of the body.

Admits' Today That He Is Far Too Conserratrre. as us fctty cushels Preliminary Tests Are Greater Than First Anticipated. Weather Is Ideal and Harvest ers Are In Fields. Reports to the freight department of the Santa Fe railway in Topeka show that wheat threshing has started in southern Kansas and that the results are highly satisfactory, not only to the farmers, but also to the railroad men, grain dealers and millers, who have been guessing on the bumper crop. The first threshing runs from 20 to 32 Dusneis per acre. How about your 130,000,000 bushel guess?" a State Journal reporter asked J. R. Koonts, general freight agent, to day. "Haven't changed my guess yet. but may have to," Mr. Koonts replied. Some of my farmer friends three weeks ago said that I was too conserva tive. The scattering returns from the fields threshed Indicate an average higher than anybody figured.' If this average keeps up well, I've been too conservative.". The first teport to the Santa Fe came from Clearwater, Sedgwick county. where J. C Smith threshed 1,080 bushels from a 40 acre field. That was 27 bush els to the acre. It tested 60 pounds to the bushel. fK .-i Peter Nelson, of Sylvia,-Rend' county. threshed 20 acres this week. The wheat yielded 32 bushels and 12 pounds to the acre. The average was 61 pounds to the buoheL A second report from Clearwater told of a field going 27 bushels per acre, but that story has not yet been verified. C. L. Showman, near Conway Springs, Sumner county, threshed 779 bushels from 31 acres, a little over 25 bushels per acre. Three farmers near Spring, Harper county, threshed 2.250 bushels from 112 acres, a little more than 20 bushels to the acre. Weather Is IdeaL The weather continued' ideal for har vesting. Last night there was an inch 1 of rain from Lyons to Marion, and a few showers along the southern border, but harvest work jvas not interrupted. The high water In Leavenworth and Jefferson counties caused some dam age, but the farmers generally, have saved the greater part of their crop. Generally the farmers have had a sufficient number of hands. A good many tender young men from the cities have succumbod to the hot weather, but as a rule the town f tin" hand is doing satisfactorTiwork.h As soon as a cW Is loaded with hew wtwat. taf rajlpssjii trOTIny: gcabs,- ltl ana rusnes it to tne market, in order that the equipment maybe released at the earliest possible .moment.

He lived in Topeka four or' five years ago, as as sistant manager "of the Provident asso ciation for several years. He reports that wheat in Reno county will average 30 bushels to the acre and that farmers there estimate the Kansas wheat crop for this year at 200.000,000 bushels. The Union Pacific has 300 cars side tracked at Saiina waiting for the rush- of wheat to the eastern markets. WILSON KISSES A GIRL The Sweetest She Ever Had, Pedarea Afterward.

The second game with Louisville Tuesday was marred by a fist fight between Phil Lewis of the home club and PoHy Mc- Larry- The trouble started when Mc Larry apparently deliberately spiked Hughes at the home plate, knocking the catcher down and dazing him. Lewis retaliated, going into second in the eighth and while he was on the ground McLarry Jumped on him with both feet, cutting a gash in his chest. Lewis then lumped up and the two engaged in a fierce fist battle until separated by umpires and play ers. During the mix up the crowd flocked out of the stands onto the dia mond and in the excitement a riot call was turned in. Both players were ban ished from the field..

That's because the food is not di gested and absorbed. Much that is eaten is never taken up by the system as real food, and so the tissues simply starve and the individual may, as in a recent case, look and feel old in what should be the bloom of life, youth. "At. twenty I was prematurely old. The health and vigor and brightness of youth had been, as it seemed, stolen from me. I went to work in the morn ing with slow steps and a dull head. "Hy work through' the day was un satisfactory 'for my breakfast lay in my stomach like a hard lump.

Preparations for Peggy's visit to the country went ahead with a stir and bustle that generally marks most every plan wherein Peggy's interests are centered. Peggy's folks are pleased, of course, to think that their dear little daugh ter is to enjoy herself amidst the greenwood shades and verdant cow pastures. Indeed, they are very glad that their little sunshine is to spend a few pleasant days chasing butterflies and dallying with the brown-eyed heifers. Father couldn't quite understand, it is true, why a place as insular as a farm should demand several new dresses. Aside from a large trunk, she is taking every bag and satchel in the house and a few extra boxes. It is noticed on the way to the train that while Peggy carries her hand kerchief and her head with an air, she is encumbered with little else. Tom labors along with only an occa sional protesting grunt and manages pretty well with two large suitcases, a hatbox and several packages. Black Hawk, N. M., was also a guest; Mrs. Fritz Patrick of Lecompton, and Mrs. E. F. Lester and Miss Mildred Berger of Topeka, Mrs. Nellis and Mr. and Mrs. Reinisch completed the party.

COMPANY Cow Pasture With a Complete New Peggy was more thoughtful of moth er and only required her to tote a h auine armful of odds and ends. Mother feels that she would be- willing to tote twice that much three times as far if Peggy's little jaunt would return her with renewed vigor and an enlivened interest in house work, especially about the kitchen. On the way to the train Peggy ex presses pleasure in the prospect of seeing them milk the cow. She said she was sure she would like to be taught so that she might milk one all by- herself. Mother cheered up at this. Per haps, the farm atmosphere might in spire in Peggy an eagerness to do something useful. If Peggy should only chance in the kitchen of the farm house at a busy hour, dish wishing might take on a fascination. Peggy might wish to be taught to wash dishes so that she could do them all by herself. There are still a few possibilities In this country vis it of Peggy's, thinks mother.
