Jack Johnson and Frank Moran both made statements today. They follow: By Jack Johnson: I am eoing to win and I expect to play havoc in the first round, proviiiK to Mor an what he is up against. I shall not be in a hurry to finish but I do not think the fight Will last more than twelve rounds. I have never bean In better con dition in my life. I have brought mvpelf "down to 20S pounds a. id 1 shall enter the ring at 2t6. I shall take my morning round tomorrow. In my fight at Reno I weighed 199 pounds and at Las Vegas 215. Anybody can Judge from .hese fig ures whether my training lias been in earnest or not. If I do not win this fight it won't be my fault nor will I have anything to complain of. I am not goin? to lose my chance; the fight Is going to be mine. By Frank Moran: X am certain of victory within fifteen rounds nt the outside. I am not making this statement lightly, fully realizing ibatr-lwai have to tacff -lt afUsf the fight. I have never trained so thor oughly and conscientiously before and my physical condition was never finer. My strength, speed and stamina are at the utmost point of efficiency and to my mind it is a foregone conclusion that I shall be world's champion tomor row night. Paris, June 27. French sportsmen and thousands of Americans and other foreign followers of boxing were gath ered in Paris today awaiting the fight tonight for the heavyweight 'champion ship of the world. Frank Moran of Pittsburg and Jack Johnson, holder of the title since he defeated Jeffries on July 4, 1910, at Keno. will meet In the ring at the iiM(Vr -t 10:30 O'clock tonight to fight for 20 rounds i.ofiiy rules. On every hand the question was dis cussed whether the white challenger was capable of wresting the title from the negro holder. Each of the com batants expressed strong confidence of victory, but the betting odds on the event were three to one In favor of Johnson. Johnson said today: "I was never more sure in my life' than I am today. It is now a question of true sportsmanship. If Moran wins tonight he will win by strength, skill and better generalship. If he wins I shall be the first to congratu late him from the bottom of my heart." Johnson has made plans for a tour of Europe in an automobile after the fight. The Journey will include visits to London and to Moscow and he says he will later return to the United States. Moran said: "It will be a tough fight while it lasts, but I do not think It will last twenty rounds. I am !n the best condition of my career and naturally do not expect to be the loser." The Pittsburg fighter added that whether ha won or lost he expected to be battered. He said he intended to return to his training quarters for a ouiet rest cfter the fight. Should he be the winner he will pay a visit tb Home. Much interest is displayed In Moran's style in the ring, which Is not so well known as that of Johnson. The white fight?r eaid his plan would be a cautious effort to win and he did not expect to effect a knock out' by a chance swing. He declared he believed the longer he could draw out the fight the better his i-hflnr!!, wntllfl ha fn nutflni, i r. decMslve blows. Moran asserted that i and deposited he felt the responsibility rested on him of representing the white race. His four sisters in Pittsburg today sent him an encouraging message while an uncle, who Is dying in Ireland, wrote him a farewell letter In which he said he had prayed for his victory. Few Fight Bets. Chicago, June 27. Few bets In sums large or small were placed here today on the Johnson-Moran fight. In the principal negro residence section on the south, side, in which Johnson formerly lived and in which he main tained a home for his mother over since money came easy to him, specu lation was chiefly confined to John son's condition. i Crowd In Full Dress, i The crowd at the arena tonight will be in full dress, as Parisians regard the matoh In the same way as they would an Important night at the opera. The reservations made today included a great many for women. Among the prominent personages of France who will be present are Duke Louis d'Usea. the premier duke and 'peer of France and former Premier Louis Barthou. White Man's Chance. New York, June 27. The white man has his first real opportunity tonight to get possession of the heavyweight championship in the boxing profession. Moran is a fine specimen of manhood, tlessed with a magnificent, well pro portioned physique, intelligent, level headed good habits and above the av erage as a creditable representative of the American professional athlete. He should win in this contest. There Is, of course, a few "ifs." The first if Is he In the best condi tion possible? If No. 2 Will he refrain from ciim.h- lng, wrestling and shoving about the ring, tnereby tiring his arms and may- Ing into the very opportunities that his opponent is looking-for? Johnson's greatest skill has been dis played in his ability to Injure fcl op- ponent wnue u the clinches. He is very strong in the arms and shoulders. Of course Moran and his seconds must know this as well as any one elaa wno ever saw Johnson fight and there fore they should avoid being drawn into such a trap. First Opponent with Kqna-I Chance. This Is the first time that Johnson has had an opponent with equal chances from a physical point of view. Reports from France say that John son looks as well as he ever did in hia life and there is no reason to doubt it, but the most important thing re garding his ability to stand the hard ships of a fight is not apparent and cannot be seen by looking at the man nor by watching him In his exercises or training. It is his nerve energy which must come from his nerve organism and it is almost a certainty that in his case there will be no exception. His deficiency will not be for the want of muscular strength tior knowledge of the game, but will his nerves stand the shock and strain of a severe contest? If Johnson defeats Moran in this bout it will be by far the most cred itable performance of his entire- ca reer. Jeanette Sees No Chance for Moran. New York, June 27. Joe Jeanette, the negro heavyweight who recently returned from Paris, where he trained with Frank Moran. declares that he does not believe that Moran will be able to penetrate Johnson's guard. "In order to beat a man you've got to hit him, don't you?" asked Jean ette. "Well, I don't figure that Mor an can hit Johnson hard enough to hurt him. I've fought Johnson too many times to remember out I know how he fights and I say Moran won't do." Statement by J. J. Corbett. James J. Corbett, makes the fol lowing statement: "Of course every body seems to think Johnson is all In, I don't know how far gone he is and I have never seen Moran box, but Judging from what I have heard of Moran he is a strong young fellow with very little experience. "Somehow I think Johnson is due to be licked and feel that any strong young fellow with lots of courage who eaii stand a Seating for a few rounds fta make Johnson tired and beat him. "'Well, if that can be done I rather think Moran Is the man to do it. Now Johnson, if he gets tired, will try to kid and bull his way through the 20 rounds. Smiling and with his know ledge of the ring he might make Mo ran think he is as good as ever. I would give my right arm to see Moran win because it would help boxing a lot. "However, on form Johnson should win, but from what I hear Johnson won't be in the best of form. "If Moran will Just cut loose and keep up a fast pace and make John son fight every second and have the referee break them away quickly that's Moran's only chance." Johnson's Program for the Vay. The French management today is sued a public appeal to spectators of the fight not to allow heir enthusi asm to go beyond proper limits and made a special request that no at tempt be made to give ad Wee to the referee, George Carpentier. the French champion, no matter what might be thought of his decisions. It was said this morning that Moran would enter the ring weighing Just under 195 pounds, while Johnson would weigh 210. The ar'eles con tained no stipulations as to the weight of the contestants. Johnson slept eleven hours last night. After being massaged this morning he ate four soft boiled eggs stirred up in a bowl of bread, and finished his meal with a dish of iced strawberries. For luncheon he had a plaiii pound cake. He lives usually on a virtually vege tarian diet. He said this morning: "I have found cake an excellent substitute for roast meat. To me it is more nourishing and strength-building than meat, and agrees better with, my system." Johnson's bill of fare for dinner consisted of roast chicke l end fresh vegetables, which he planned to eat. at five, or a little over five hours be fore entering the ring. He said he ex pected to pass the greater part of the day leisurely.' About noon he drove from Asnires into Paris to meet his wife. Moran in IHsh Spirits. Moran slept soundly for ten hours in his training quarters. .His break fast was two boiled egss and roJ's, after which he took a leisurely morn ing walk". He was in high spirits, es pecially when he found in today's mail a letter from Alderman Joseph Clancy of Pittsburg saying, "The blackberry is ready to pick." Tne check for $30,000 made out in Feb ruary when the contract, for the light was signed and then photographed in the vaults of the credit Lyonnais. to be handed to Mrs. Johnsota at noon today, did not figure in today's transactions of the colored fighter so far as could be ascertained. When questioned about the check, Johnson said: "All 1 will say is that I am "to re ceive $30,000, win, lose or draw," This sum Is in addition to the $5,000 paid to Johnson for Ills training ex penses at the time articles were signed. Dan McKettrick, manager of Moran, and Theo Vle-nne, the French pro moter of match, evaded all inquiries today as what Moran's percentage was to be in case he won, but it was gen erally understood that Moran had re ceived a guarantee of $5,000, win, draw or lose. Several Preliminary Bouts. Before the big fight tonight there are to be several, minor bouts, among them one between a Belgian "white hope" named Tynckev a sparring part ner of George Carpentier, and Avaulee, a French boxer.'..

RAY C0gE RACK? Rumor of Change in Santa Fe Store Departments Vice President's Assistant Will V Return to Chicago. There was a well defined rumor afloat in Santa Fe circles this morning to the effect that H. E. Ray, general store keeper of the Santa Fe coast lines, will be transferred to Topeka July 1 suc ceeding N. M. Rice,' who resigned last November." According to.,a report from San Bernardino, where Ray and' his cbjef clerk, W.

Will Topeka continue to be asleep at the bat? Topeka has the opportunity of wit nessing earlier baseball and reading late afternoon baseball news of local interest In the State Journal Post script. The calling of 8 o'clock games in this city would be appreciated by the fans, by the housewives, by the newspaper readers and by the play ers themselves. IS OIL NEAR US? BBBBBBBSSSSSSesSBS. Immense Pool Believed To Be Located Near Zeandale. PossIblUty of Cheap Fuel and v. More Prosperity. There is a possibility that Topeka has, at its gate, an oil and gas pool twice as large as the famous Cushlng pool of Oklahoma, which is, today, producing approximately 160,000 bar rels of oil every 24 hours. Contracts for drilling have been given the Parker Oil company of Ok lahoma by the Golden Belt Oil and Gas company of Topeka. Drilling will begin at once a few miles from Zean dale. The drilling machinery Is loaded and is on its way to the prospective oil field. It Is now up to the drill and bit to tell at Just what depth the oil and gas sands of this anticline will be reached. So far as Topeka is concerned, one does not have to draw upon his-imagination to picture what the big oil and gas pool would do for this city. It would mean cheap gas' for years and plenty of it in the winter time. It would also mean cheap fuel in the way of oil. Locations' to Kansas. Oil and gas wells are located on what are known as anticlines in the geological world. Drawing a line on the map of Kansas from Arkansas City northeast to the little town of St. George on the Union Pacific railroad in Pottawatomie county and one of the most pronounced anticlines in the state is traced. Going still farther, until the line passes into the counties of Wabaunsee and Riley the line strikes a geological condition that challenges the admiration of oil and gas experts. Recently it has been of much interest to geologists. Here the anticlinal ridge, or fold in the earth running northeast from Ar (Continued on page 2.) T3.

The finals proved to be a close contest but 'the golf was very poor for a cham pionship affair. Of course there was a heavy wind which seemed to affect the playing, but at' that, the golf should have been of a higher standard. The players started off at 1:30 o'clock prompt, Stinson winning the first hole In 5. Stinson also won the second hole with a 6 and this put him two up.' Ad ams won the third with a S and the next three holes were halved. Adams won the seventh, making the match even and they halved the eighth and ninth holes which left them even at the turn, both went out in 44. Stinson won the tenth hole with a 41 and the eleventh was halved hut Adams won the twelfth in three. The next three were, halved. Then Stinson came up strong and won the next three holes making htm three up. On the seven teenth, Stinson drove Into a ditch and could not find his ball within the time limit so he lost the hole. They halved a lead of two up. Stinson made the eighteen holes In 86 and Adams In St. The Last Eighteen Holes. Starting the afternoon round, they halved the first hole in 6. Adams was in trouble at the second hole but made a wonderful recovery and they halved the hole in S. They also halved the next hole in 6, Adams again running down a putt from oft the green.

L7TCLD STOHIESOF SECRETARY Why He Always Has Used His Famous Inverted Signature. Coburn, Inrentor Friend of the Human Race. Next week, the man about whom more haa been written and printed than any other man In Kansas, will retire from public life, but not from the public eye. U8ins the family resi dence at 424 Topeka avenue as head quarters, he will probably make sor ties Into print via newspapers and magazines, and the name of F. D. Co burn will continue familiar with those who do assemble the types, both by hand and machinery. A few days ago, a newspaper man remarked that it would require some effort to give Mr. Coburn a fitting' aendoff when the time came for his retirement from the ground-floor of fice in the state house. "Everything haa been written about him," com plained this scribe, "His life has been an open book, above the necessities of concealment, and there is nothing to 'dig up on him. Artists like Vandegrift, McCray and Leahy have given him the 'once over,' and It's a cinch they didn't miss anything. He has fur nished miles of copy, and the most Intimate touches of a Coburn. story have been printed somewhere between 86 and 5,000 times. What's the use of trying? Everybody knows him, and knows all about him." Bethatasitmay: The salient parts of his history are worth writing and reading again, and the scribes would much rather do the repeating now, while he is issuing his brief swan song of retirement from public office, than years (let us hope many MANY years) later, while a gentleman" with black clothes and white necktie is measur ing him for a wooden kimono. And it may be that all the Coburn stories have not been printed. For instance: Who has written the story of the in verted signature the changed initials of 60 years ago? How many people who know Foster Dwight Coburn of Kansas knew Dwight Foster Coburn of the 135th Illinois infantry and the C2nd Illinois Infantry? So far as known, the story of the Inverted signature is no secret. Cer tain it is that when Mr. Coburn told the story to a newspaper man, no oath of secrecy was required. It started in this manner: Mr. Coburn was frisking, merrily frisking, through his morning mail, the while visiting with the news writer and Frank StahL He came across a letter ad dressed to "Fred D. Coburn." "The man who wrote that felt that I should have a front name," said the secretary, as he passed the envelope for the inspection of his visitors. "I thought everybody knew your first name was 'Foster,' said Mr. Stahl. "It is and it isn't," observed Mr. Co burn, dropping back into his deep chair and a reminiscent mood with the same graceful motion. "It is, and it Isn't and thereby hangs a tale. "When I was a boy in the army I was about 17 then, my name was turned over. My parents named me after a Dwight Foster and he was a good man with a good name. I wore it parted that way up to and including the war period. The change was the result of boy nonsense and Idleness. With a number of other young fellows, I was attached to a quartermaster' department for a time. In those days. It was considered an accomplishment to 'swing a good pen' and we young loafers put in our spare time spoiling good government stationery with fancy Signatures. The other boys could beat me at the game. Try as I would, I could not hook 'D' and 'F with grace ful curves and pot hooks, making the letters perfect and at the same time constructing a satisfactory signature. Someone suggested that I try the let ters inverted. The result was highly satisfactory, became a habit and re tmlted, in later years, in a fixe'i ar rangement. But when I go down tJ ign the pension rolls, I write 'Dwight F. Coburn.' That "is the one Coburn story that seems to have escaped the scribes. It rn't much of a story, but who knows how much eflect that change ma!5 i.". the future life of the young soldier? May it net be possible that the clean, graceful s.rnature of "F. D. Coburn" on Jnimpmtant documents may have ettractrd tht- attention of th03e who placed him in a position to sign more Important writings? Mr. Coburn has been called the poor est public speaker who was ever in great demand as a speech maker. But the title of poorest speaker may have been a title of his own choice. Perhaps lie could make a long, flowery speech if h wanted to, but he has never wanted to. Sitting in his office one day with a vis itor, ho turned and aimed one long, straight finger at a spot on the state house lawn Just east of the old Cot tonwood tree. "Right-there," quoth the secretary, "you will see, some time, a marble haft. On It will be carved this in scription: 'Coburn, Inventr; Friend of the Human Race.' "For I am working out an invention that will keep my memory green long after I have passed. My Invention shall be known as 'The Painless Re mover" corns! Certainly not! Pub lic speakers! That's what. It will be a contraption somettftatg like the mechanism of one of these disappear ing coast defense cannon, and used as a support for a section of every stage likely to be occupied by a public speak er. When he has talked long enough, he will simply fade through the stage, quietly, noiselessly. No rough work no 'getting the hook' or throwing him through a window; he will Just fade that's all fade. And I shall be remem bered by posterity, not as Coburn, the secretary of agriculture, but Coburn, Inventor of that boon to suffering hu manity, the "remover.

Buphony and balance are bis to command. News writers all over the country will now grab their trusty typewriters and rewrite the life history, or part of the life history of Secretary Coburn, and then begin his pleasant duty of enum erating the good qualities and good deeds of Secretary Mohler.

The dome of this displacement is, at this point, about six or eight miles wide and twelves miles in length. The amount of elevation of the central part of this fold is 250 to S00 feet. Topekans Are Interested. Late last fall the attention of a few Topeka men. was directed toward t,his anti-cline lying weBt of the city and a company was formed called "The Gold en Belt Oil Gas Co., of Topeka, Kan sas." The company was chartered by the state in December and Prof. J. W. Beede, now a member of the state geological survey staff of Indiana, was employed to visit the district and sub mit a report. Among other things, in his report to the company Prof. Beede says, "In examining the region west of Wamego an anticlinal fold or arch of considerable dimensions was found. The total extent Is very great, reach ing from the vicinity of Manhattan on the west well toward St. Marys on the east and a proportionate distance to ward Westmoreland on the north. However, tho apex or dome, the part of most importance Is fairly limited in extent. This central part would serve as a reservoir for all the great collecting grounds. The rocks of this dome have an elevation of nearly 800 feet above their altitude, at the ex treme limit of the fold, thus furnish ing a considerable relief and a capa city for the collection of oil and gas, etc." Prof. Erasmus Haworth, state geo logist of Kansas, was also invited- by the officers of the Golden Belt Oil and Gas Co., to visit the field. In his re port to the company he reached the same conclusions as Prof. Beede. In brief in his report to the com pany he says: "It seems to me that Dr. Beede has covered the whole ground. I would, however, advise that no matter where you drill you go to the Mississippian limestone. I have recalculated this matter as best I can and submit the following figures as feet SeTE'L l l,ti,hA rhlAl 1 1 I 1 mv heat oatlTnate for th dnth nt the Mississippian as 2,037 feet at Wamego hv tim tt. v. deuot: and 1.80s feet nt St. Marys by the U.

Not only is the call for extra teams unusually heavy, but reports today in dicated that more men were needed to cut the Kansas grain. A telegram to the State Journal from Colby, Trego county today declared that 1,000 men were needed in that locality by Mon day. For several days the state free employment bureau has been rushing men to Colbyj where they are dis tributed to Rawlins, Cheyenne and De catur counties and portions of Trego county. It Is believed that sufficient men can be sent to Colby today and Sunday to meet the demand, although M. N. Bunker of Colby today declared that the demand for extra harvest hands was urgent. Too Hot for Work. Pratt, Kan., June 27 The extreme heat and the high wind stopped the harvest in this community. A trip through the country to the north re vealed many headers lying idle. In quiry revealed the fact that some of them were idle because no help was available to operate the machine. Many were Idle because the wheat could not be held ln the barge with the high wind. The wheat is about one-half out in this vicinity and it is going down ev ery day. The binders are being run overtime and many are taking advan tage of the cooler and quiet evening to harvest, resting ln the middle of the day. Rock Island Starts a Fire. Cullison. Kan., June 27. One hun dred acres of fine wheat was burned here on the Ira Moore farm near Cullison. Train 752 on the Rock Is land set the fire. It was not noticed until the fire had a good start, and fanned by a high wind It soon de stroyed the entire field of wheat: Part of the wheat was cut, which makes the loss heavier. Many came from every direction to fight the fire but the high wind made It nearly Im possible to stop. A road and a green field was all that saved many hun dred acres of wheat on the north of the burned field. The wheat was one of the best fields in that community and would have averaged 35 bushels to the acre. It was not insured against fire. Field Burns at Great Bend. Great Bend, Kan., June 27. Sparks from a Santa Fe train set fire to and destroyed 115 acres of uncut wheat just east of Great Bend. The fire started not forty feet away from where a har vester crew was working and they rushed immediately to the blaze and tried to put it out, but were unable to do more than check the flames tem porarily. Other crews came to their help and several stacks of cut wheat ln the field were saved. The fire burned itself out on the section lines. Steve Sanke was the principal owner of the wheat.

West: "The Salina golf -course was exceedingly interesting, as) there were several natural hazards on the links that are not often found else i where. There were ridges and ravines in the grounds and on the whole, it was a successful tournament. Tne sauna people were hospitable and automobiles I were always in readiness to take the visitors to the Country club, two miles I from the city. Every evening, the golf ers from Topeka took great pleasure j ln reading the state Journal's authen tic accounts m. cue luuruiunaai. Used a Sweeper on Green- -Harlow Hurley: "We were certainly well treated all Salina. We had some difficulty at first on account of the sand greens, ln comparison with the grass greens at Topeka. Tne course. however, was a good one and the 8a I Una hosts did everything in their power to make our stay agreeable. One amus- Ilng feature about the sand greens was the 'sweeper.' On account of the foot prints in the sand, making slight ruts, i a primitive, sweeper was used to make the sand smooth. This sweeper was constructed out of a gunny sack and two poles and the player or his caddy i had to use It every time they ap proached a green." Joe Wilson: "The course was a good one and the Salina people were certainly hospitable. Topeka carried away several honors and made a good showing, but for some reason,, the 'jinx' was against them in several matches." Enjoyed the Tournament. J. S. Dean: "All I can say Is that we were splendidly entertained at Salina and that all of the Topeka bunch enjoyed the tournament. We met a nice bunch of men from all parts of the state, who were playing ln the tournament. All of the golfers expressed the opinion that ft was well worth going to." Hurley's Sportsmanship. Editorial from Salina Journal: "One feature that stands out prom inently ln the play in the state golf tournament, now in progress ln Sa una, is the spirit of sportsmanship that marks the matches. A fine ex ample of this was seen ln the match in. the championship flight played by Hurley of Topeka and Anderson of Lawrence. The men tied at the six teenth hole and halved the seven teenth. Hurley, who was low man In the qualifying rounds, made a beau tiful drive just beyond the right of the green. Anderson drove the green. Hurley's ball dropped ln a small de pression made by a wagon wheel. "The ground rules failed to provide for such an emergency. "Lift the ball, said Anderson, when he learned that no rule covered the play. 'No, said Hurley, I'll play it from where it is.' He made the hole in four, his oppo nent making it in three and eliminat ing him from the championship. "The incident is typical of the way the game has been played here this week. The spirit of true sportsman ship, of the desire to win fairly and to give th-3 other fellow the benefit of any doubt, has been seen all through the play. Golf has been call ed a gentleman's game and if this spirit of sportsmanship pervades the game everywhere as thoroughly as it has here, it is truly named." Good Fellows a Salina. The Topeka crowd came home from the golf tournament at Salina with I mixed feelings among which, however, predominated an exceedingly friendly sentiment toward the Salina -bunch. I But the fine Salina course, the hos j pitality of Salina business men who turned out with their automobiles and carried visiting golfers and their cad- dies to and from the links and de voted themselves to the comfort of the iout of town delegations generally 1 leaves the warmest sort of spot ln To i peka hearts toward the whole Salina i aggregation. That Joe Wilson was too much of a gentleman for his own good and called back his opponent to find i the ball on which the match had been technically, and, in the matter of holes, actually won with Wilson at the sixteenth, is a subject of gloomy retro spection, but not for recrimination. .There's always a "next time" coming for the thoroughbred golf ist. "Salina can well be proud of their 1 course," declared II. A. Auerbach. "It's one of the finest In the west and I is a testimonial to the enthusiasm for the game which the Salina folks cher Ish. They know how to treat their j visitors and send them home feeling right and in favor o f more of the 'same kind of. entertainment all over the state. v "I want to take this opportunity of complimenting the State Journal on the way it has supported the tourna- meat, reported its events and got Its Daper to the players while the news was still fresh. Every evening we had tne Journal's noon eaiuon witn its reports of the tournament, which Peebles handled in excellent shape,. It 'shows the sort of newspaper backing I' which the players aU appreciate." Good Accommodatln Humphreys. Horace Humphreys, who knows how those things should be done, brought home a number of kind words for the hotel accommodations and entertain ment for the crowd at the tournament and was particularly complimentary toward the whole spirit of the Salina business men. "They simply quit work to look after us. They had their autos on the Job all the time and drove them, themselves. There were always three or four ma chines waiting in front of the hotels labeled 'Country Club' and they took the players and even their cirtd'ea sack Cert wver tMy wanted te r The links were in fine shape and the entertainment at the club house com plete in every particular. "The less said about Topeka's own bad fortunes in the prospect of winning, is perhaps best. But Topeka has the goods and there's no loss of confidence in the ability of our own bert players to show up in the lead of "he state in' the long run. The Salina tournament means more good golf in Kansas than ever before and we all feel fine over the prospect of the great game In tourn aments tocome." raurs trxET nffuiis. Chicago, June 27.

REISIGL GETS BXCK 11 GAME "Buff" Ehman No Longer EN fectlre Against Kaws. Higglnbotham Finished dame When Teammate Slipped. Lincoln, Neb., June 27. Revenge was sweet today and not only was the two previous defeats of the Topekans at thre hands of the Tigers evened up partially but the Topeka club took a fair sized slap "Buff" Ehman, and pounded his offering! all around the' lot. The count was 8 to 6, and it was a swatfest for both teams as com pared with the battle of Thursday. Manager "Dick" Cooley saw his charges work in classy form when ever the Links threatened, and Tope ka in the meantime took all manner of liberty with the offerings of the lengthy Lincoln twirler. It was a woozy exhibition cf fielding that the Links perpetrated also. Lattimore in cidentally collected a four base swat which helped somewhat. Reisigl and Ehman steamed along in shipshape fashion for three rounds, neither aggregation collecting any thing that had a semblance of a run. But in the fourth the fun started. Cochran walked, and went to second on Potts' sacrifice. Forsythe doubled to center, scoring Cochran. McGaffl gan booted Koerner's grounder and Forsythe gamboled to third, and Koerner was saf Ehman caught Forsythe off the third bag after field ing Rapps' grounder and then Tallion ended the round by popping out. It was a run apiece in the fifth. Lattimore was the hero of the occa sion by clouting the sphere over the left field ramparts for the circuit. McAllister followed with a double, but Keisigl fanned, Cochran filed out and Potts followed suit. Smith's double, followed by Collins' two-base swat, gave Lincoln one in the same round. The sixth was the big run producer for both sides. Forsythe led off with a single to right, and Koerner and Forsythe were both safe on a fielders' choice. Rapps popped out, and Tal lion filed out. Lattimore again ap peared with his bludgeon and leaned against one of Khman's slants for two bases, rcoring Forsythe and Koerner. Collins' wild throw into the diamond allowed Lattimore to reach third, and then Schreiber heaved the ball into the stand in an effort to check Latti more at the plate and the third run was across. The Tigers collected a pair on Schreiber's infield hit, Mullen's single and Miller's long single, which scored Schreiber and Mullen. And still the scoring kept up. In the seventh with one down Cochran singled to center. Potts filed out. but Forsythe singled, sending Cochran to third. Koerner singled to
rigni, scoring Cochran and Forsythe. Rapps followed with another safe clout, but Tallion ended it by flying out. The Tigers kept up the pace in their half rhastnp a. nn.ir nf mna nrrniw also. McGaffigan and Lloyd both sin- i gled. Schreiber nied out, and Mul-1 len fanned. Then Miller leaned against the ball for three bases, scor ing McGaffigan and Lloyd. At this juncture Reisigl was waved to the bench and Higginbotham took up the burden. He proceeded to fan Smith. The eighth round was barren, but in the ninth Topeka made it good and sure by chasing one across on Potts' single, Schreiber's error on For sythe's grounder and Koerner's sacri fice fly. Notes of the Game. Manager Cooley when told that President O'Neill would raise his sub rension Sunday stated, "There is nothing to it. anyway. McGJll got sore and took his spite out on me.

It waa the gayest scene the Hudson ever wit nessed on such an occasion. GOSSIP OF THE SPORTSf' (By Jake Lewis, Official Scorer.) Just 21 points separate the teams in the fielding averages of the West ern league and this difference is so small that there is but little variance in the class of the club in this de partment. The Des Moines club Is leading with a team average of .965, while the Wichita club la last with an average of .944. Topeka Is seventh with an average of .962. A difference of 41 points separates the clubs in the batting department and the Denver club is leading with an average of .204. The Lincoln club is last with an averase f .263. The Topeka club is sixth with an average of .279. Topeka has five regular play ers with an averase of more than .300. Catcher Lou McAllister has an average of .296. BUI Rapps has a batting averase of .252 but he has not been in the game regularly. This will give the club six with the .300 average and Jimmy Potts will be sev enth. He has not been with the club long enoush to set bis name on the list.
Jim Kane wasn't good enough for the Omaha club, but with Sioux City he is hitting .240 while his successor. Chase, Is hitting but .262. Tom Reilly of Des Moines Is leading the league with two base swats for a total of 24. Koerner of Topeka is third with 20. Koerner has been at bat 233 times, has 77 hits for a total of 177 bases. He has stolen 12. The Lincoln club has the poorest batting average and is fifth in fielding and has scored fewer runs than any other club in the league. Ridgeway Is leading the Topeka pitchers with three games won and one lost but he has been with the club less than ten days. Falrcloth is leading those who have been with the club regularly. Reisigl la one of the best in the league but his average doesn't show it. Writers of the At. erican associa tion look upon the plan of the Na tional baseball commission to estab lish another major league as a system of breaking tha Federals and also claim that the establishment of the league as suggested would break up the American association and Inter national league. They don't see much of a chance for the new league. Red Shackelford, with the Wichita club several years ugo. was sold this week by the Rockford club of the Wisconsin-Illinois league to Milwau kee in the American association.

He started out some years ago Aa fleeting time la reckoned: I'm speaking of the mummy of Old Barneses the Second. Indianapolis la leading the Federal league. The Kansas City club de feated the IndianapoUt club Thursday after the latter had won fifteen con secutive games. Wen, suppose Ridgeway did lose to Lincoln Thursday. He acts like a real pitcher, works like one and we be lieve he is one. although we haven't seen him In action. He will work Sunday In one of the games against the Denver club. j. There appears to be no chance to defeat the Giants in the National League or the Athletics in the. Ameri can so the arrangement committee might as well begin preparing for the world's series. The Giants have a big lead but the Athletics lead in small. However, both teams have shown the class by defeating the contenders and losing to the weaker clubs. Nothing but the utmost unusual will rob either of the pennant In their respective cir cuits. Pitcher Brenner has been released by Rourke of the Omaha club. Bren ner Joined Omaha last season and looked like a coming star, but his arm baa been bad and he has been practi cally useless to the clnb this season. Rourke has put First Baseman Chase on the bench and Joe Ward is playing the Initial sack. Ward is a good hitter and Chase Is a Joke. The Des Moines club will not take any chances In losing a place in the first division and Isbell has. bought Jack O'Rourke. a veteran catcher of the major leagues. O'Rourke comes from the International League. This will probably put the taboo on Shod dy Shaw. With Dick Cooley In the game, the Topeka club should be successful in taking a majority of games In the Denver series. They broke even at Denver, and being on the home grounds, they should do better. Barney McGrath has been showing a reversal of form ever since he held the Tigers to one hit. But he will get back in condition and some more good pitching will result. Wichita Beacon: President Breese has a new pitcher snared from eastern Kansas, who has all the earmarks of being another Farmer Willett. The new man is Luke Robinson, 20 years old, from Columbus, Kan. He is I scheduled to report today or tomor row. Robinson is a farmer boy who has naa no experience in organised bane ball. Last year he won 20 games with no losses charged against him. This year he has won eight straight. Two weeks ago on a bet he fanned the first 20 men who faced him. Ill WESTERN FOLD.

VOTED AGAINST IT Directors of Commercial Club Go on Record Against Automatic Telephone Bonds In Topeka. TELEFHOXE TRCIELES TALKED Tuesday, June 80th, Set for Dis cussion Improrements. Effort to Squelch Automatic Investigation Deflated. The board of directors of the Com mercial club met this afternoon and considered the matter of the city vot ing bonds to install a new automatic telephone system in Topeka. After a debate lasting; about two hours and a half the directors decided that it would be unwise for the sity of Tope ka to vote a bonded indebtedness of 1900,000 to be used in creating a mu nicipal telephone system. J. F. Haskell, president, said it was his opinion that the business men did not want two telephone systems on account of the extra expense that would be added. Most of the business men, however, who are directors of the club, gave their opinion that the automatic tele phone idea would not be a bad one if an independent corporation should In stall the system in Topeka. The directors adso urged that the public at large would not be served so well with the two systems as one because part of the people would have one company's phone and the other part would be on a different system. The expression against the voting of 1900,000 in bonds, or anything like it, was quite general. It was apparent, however, that this meeting was not called altogether in the interest of opposing a bond prop osition, but was called to suppress, if possible, agitation of an automatic system of telephones. The question thus has two phases. Upon motion of Mr. Garvey, seconded by Mr. Lux, an effort was made to turn down the automatic telephone business. This motion was defeated. Scott Hopkins said he was opposed to municipal ownership. Henry Bennett said, "How about our waterworks?" Mr. Bennett: "The automatic tele phone is a good thing. I know it from experience of my friends in Chicago and elsewhere. I do not believe it a good thing to turn down every new proposition. That is the way we get improvements. "Look at our waterworks system. I am opposed to this new scheme of paying in advanre for telephones. I Mm willing to pay in middle of month, half and half. "By new propositions we get Im provements on old ones. The present telephone service is not ideal. I have some trouble, so do you. "I am opposed to more bonds at least until I am satisfied that by .nore tax we can get better anl cheaper service. About this time several directors began to tell their troubles with the present 'phones: thereupon a day was set next Tuesday to hear grievances and let the Bell people say what rem edy and relief they had to offer. Resolutions. The board of directors passed this resolution: "We believe that there would be nothing gained by installing arwther telephone plant in Topeka unless the cost to the subscriber would be less and the service better than obtained at the present, but with two telephone systems in Topeka it would not be pos sible to have as good service at a less cost as it would be where there is only one system, this of course de pending upon the single company giv ing up to date and satisfactory service as it should be compelled to give. "The board realizing that there Is Just cause for some of the complaints that are being made against the Mis souri and Kansas Telephone company, will hold a meeting on Tuesday noon, June 30, at which time representatives of the company will be asked to ap pear and discuss these grievances and see if concessions cannot be obtained from the. company. The telephone companies are under the absolute di rection of the utilities commission and where any grievous wrongs are being practised relief can be obtained through that body." Signed by J. F.

Claflin Failure Throws Other Influ ences In the Shade. New York, June 27.- The Claflin receivership was the all-important feature of the week in the stock mar ket, throwing .into the background all such considerations as the., freight rate question, gold exports, which continued in, more moderate volume and the Mexican mediation negotia tions. which at last accounts gave promise of an early solution. It is yet too soon to gauge the full effect of the Claflin failure, but. even now it Is evident that among Its many re sults will i curtailment of com mercial credits, -The stock market, it muat .be ad mitted, gave an Indubitable exhibi tion of strength in the face of extra ordinary conditions. That prices yield ed but little must be accepted as evi dence of the market's liquidated con dition. Shares of. a few commercial companies, particularly that identi fied with the insolvent corporation, registered declines, but otherwise the list held relatively Arm. Conditions in the steel industry remain un changed albeit trade authorities ex press the opinion that the last half of the year will be worse-than the first half. Copper metal continued to shade in price and the state of that trade reflected a further reduction' in demand. Crop conditions except for unfavor able weather in parts of the middle west and southwest lose little of their bright promise. Railroad returns for May as reported by the larger trans portation companies were mainly dis appointing. Quoted rates for time money show little change, chiefly be cause of dull business, but ar more active demand is expected before August. HODGES ACCEPTS Governor Will Debate With Ar thur Capper for $100. Publisher Will Be Asked to De fend Printed Assertions. Governor Hodges will send a letter Monday to J. C. Gafford, chairman of the Republican state committee, in which he will agree to pay $100 for the privilege of one or more joint de bates with Arthur Capper, Republican gubernatorial candidate, regarding the business management of the state af fairs under the present administration. The letter. Governor Hodges said late today, would be mailed sometime Monday. t In accepting the Hodges challenge for a debate, Chairman Gafford sur rounded his acceptance with a hedged in stipulation for argument to be based on affidavits of accountants concern ing the appropriations. Governor Hodges, however, will de mand that the people be given all of the facts concerning the affairs of the state administration. He will also ask the Republican state committee to put Mr. Capper on the stump to defend the as sertions contained in his own papers re garding both the state administration and the work of the 1913 legislature. When this is done. Governor Hodges declares, he will pay to Chairman Gaf ford $100 to be donated to any charit able institution he may designate. THE STATE FAIR.

Mary Turner; the fifteen-year-old Topeka girl who claimed she was ab ducted and taken to Texas a few days ago, failed to recognize Jack Hastings, harvest hand and unknown wanderer, when the latter was brought face to face with the young girl at the county jail late this afternoon. Hastings was arrested in the "harvest fieds near Abi lene Wednesday suspected with con nection in the Turner case. Mary Turner, who was brought back from Dallas, Tex., by her father last night, was taken to the county jail this afternoon to pick out the man who was suspected as being one of her abduc tors. She was unable to pick anyone among the line of prisoners at the jail and finally upon closer examination of Hastings, she declared that he was not one of the men included in the pair that "enticed" her away from the city. Hastings was released from jail. At all times he has denied that he had anything to do with the girl. AT CAMP MEETING. Special Services for Sunday at Fair Grounds.

Vlt GET OE KHSD CF K. C. Relslgl and Rldgeway Are Class of the League. Club Going Fine and Will Set Good Pace. Dick Cooley, manager of the Topeka baseball club, is back in the city. He left the club at Lincoln under the charge of Catcher Lou McAllister, and arrived in Topeka this morning to ar range for the doubleheader opening with Denver for Sunday afternoon and to complete negotiations for other players whom he has been trying to get. Among these players is Pitcher Mike Reagan, who is with the Kansas City Blues. Cooley has not completed arrangements for this man,, but the terms have been agreed upon. All that prevents him from coming to To peka in time for Sunday's game is. the condition of the other pitchers on the club. He may report in. time for Sun day's game and it may be Monday or even Tuesday before he reports. Reagan was with the Wichita club a good part of last season and was one of the most effective pitchers on the Jobber staff. His averages show that he allowed an average of 4.09 runs per each nine innings. Reagan was one of the most effective men on the staffof the Kansas City Blues. Cooley Denies It. In speaking of the Denver affair, Cooley brands President McGill's charges of swearing loud enough for the lady fans to hear him as untrue. Cooley denies that he swore at all and contends that McGill lost his head and was the party who was guilty of misconduct. Cooley says,, "McGill started all the muss, tl was in the third inning that heavy clouds assem bled, and by his orders the Denver players began to slough off the game. They had a big lead and wanted to hurry along to complete five innings of play so as to make it a legal game before the rain. The Denver players actually would walk off the bases to give the Topeka players a. chance to tag them with the ball. "We saw what they were doing and began to retaliate by delaying the game. "Then McGill was riled and started the trouble. As for the charges of swearing, I did nothing of the kind. I knew that McGill did not like me and that President O'Neill didn't have much love for me, so I guarded my conduct and tactics so as to prevent trouble. The players on the Topeka club will affirm this statement and so would the Denver players were it not for the facz of turning the man who they are working for. "The players on the club did just what they were told to by McGill. They did not take any part except to follow instructions of the club owner and I hold nothing against any of them. Manager Jack Coffey acted as a perfect gentleman and so did all the others on the team. That night at the hotel, a number of them asserted that McGill had made a fool of himself. Played Rings Around Denver. "Our club played rings around the Denver club and that umpire didn't know the first principles of the game. I made a mistake by allowing him to work, in the first place. We should have used player umpires and then there would have been no trouble. "Our club has made a good showing on the road. Barney McGrath has got more than any of the other old men and Reisigl and Ridgeway are going fine. Ridgeway will be the best man on the circuit and our club is going to be as good as any on the circuit from now on. "I think I made a wise move in shift ing Cochran to short and Tallion to third. Both players are working better in their new position. I put Cochran back at third the other day just to al low a scout to look iim over and he played a grand game. We will prob ably lose him this fall. "Koerner and Forsythe are going fine. They have been a little unlucky in placing their hits safe but they have been cracking the ball right on, the nose and the opposing players won't be suc cessful in grabbing them all the tune. They are two of the best hitters in the league and we will prooably lose them "If I can get Reaean -and so as to let Tallion return to the outfield, it will be goodnight for the Topeka club and we will set the pace of the league. "Guess I will send a pitcher to Abbott at Keokuk. I saw him Friday in Lincoln and he is going good and so is his club. I will probably send him one of our youngsters."

Well Known Persons Back to Kansas After Trip Abroad. Judge George H. Whitcomb, who re turned Friday with his wife from a two months' trip abroad, declares Paris too fast for a Kansan. The judge sailed on the Saxonia, which was Quarantined for smallpox, fell in love with sunny Italy, witnessed a queer accident in Paris, bought a "War Cry" in London where the suffragettes are shooting up the museums, and attended Eights Week at Oxford, where his oldest son, Philip, who received the state Rhodes scholarship, is making a re markable record. Those who have read Alfred Noyes "Barrel Organ" know the thrills of the Isis races "the crew to" think about gala week. picturesque crowds; slim shells on the Thames. Philip Whitcomb is one of" the most promising young men in Kansas. He will take his last examination August 5 and return to the United States, where he expects to work as a civil engineer. Judge and Mrs. Whitcomb were complimented upon the splendid reputation he has made at the Eng lish university. "Of course, Commemoration, or Eights, week was the most interesting part of our trip, declared Judge Whit comb today, "aside from that, I en joyed Italy most. We landed at Naples, having been quarantined on the steamer. Smallpox broke out in the steerage. Everyone was vaccin ated. We toured north through Ger many, Austria, France and Belgium. Stopped in Paris, of course. Paris is a little too fast." Judge Whitcomb declares the most amusing sight be witnessed abroad was an accident in the French capital. An automobile ran over a bicycle. Officers and spectators united in condemning the innocent cyclist. Jle was roundly abused in French. Finally he was forgiven forj being run over, judge w nitcomo watcn ed the reconciliation with amusement. Suddenly the cyclist approached the Kan sas judge. "Merci, monsieur," he cried and wrung his hands.- He thanked each one of the spectators for well. Judge Whitcomb didn't just know what for, then proceeded cheerily on his way to a repair shop. The Whltcombs returned on the White Star liner, Arabic, landing at Boston. Judge Whitoomb visited Dartmouth, Han over, N. II., and was entertained at his fraternity house by the Delta Kappa Epsilons. He was at his office in the second division of the district court this afternoon: Scores of friends visited him at the courthouse.

TRESPASSING IS SERIOUS Table Showing Great Loss of Life Through Carelessness. Other Items of General Interest in the Traffic World. Railway officials in Topeka have been informed of new regulations gov erning the Interstate movement of live stock to become effective July 1, 1914. These changes are designed by the department of agriculture to facili tate the movement of live stock from quarantined areas or from public stock yards. The new regulations, which are known as B. A. I. (bureau of animal industry.) Order 210, super seding B. A. I. order 143, deal, with the shipment of cattle from tick-in-; fee ted areas, with the movement of I swine from public stock yards and with the dipping of cattle and sheep Ttene giving full sponstv ySZ&r cattle that 'SSTlS dipped once under state or 'federal tMng tnat happen on the road supervision may be shipped frorn an The operatlon yof a railroad is Inter area quarantined for ticks to a mar-. estin- to everv Intelligent ket center where there are proper dip-! lnforniaUon sch ma VL ping facilities and the department of i abou? actual condition t? f .rr,.ittrA maintain an insDector. rir0.1 ac.lua" conditions, the more he After a. second diDDine there under his supervision the cattle may be sold for nnv niirtvinA. Hitherto it has been I necessary in times of drouth for cattle owners in quarantined areas to siaugn ter their stock or sell It for slaughter for whatever It would bring. The re sulting loss will, it is hoped, be done away with under the new regulation. The provision permitting, under cer tain strict conditions, the transporta tion of hogs from public stockyards into interstate commerce has been made possible by the discovery by gov ernment scientists of a serum which renders swine immune to hog cholera. Hitherto all -stockyards have been con sidered as infected with this disease. Now. however. It is considered safe to!5Lldent ma.y happen, where people permit the shipment of hogs -h'JwnbyrmBtmiim. have been treated with the serum and fSety of rallwy which show no symptoms of suffering from any form of disease. As a result f of this it is expected that thousands of lightweight hogs will be sent from the stock yards to the country for feeding and fattening and thatt the country's total production of pork will be greatly increased thereby. The new regulations also withdraw all permission for the use of nicotine solutions, coal-tar creosote and cresol preparations In the official dipping of cattle and aheep for scabies. This ion tin. hmtii made necessary bv the difficulty experienced in keeping baths i of this nature at a strength sufficient to eliminate all danger or msease witn- out having them so strong as to be injurious to the animals themselves.

AN ADVOCATE OF COURTESY. President Harrison of Southern Rail way, urges Poiitness by Employees.

Members of the 1915 legislature will be asked to appropriate $75,000 to $100,000 for a twine plant at the Hutchinson state reformatory. The new twine plant is to be a duplicate of the plant at the Lansing state peni tentiary. Plans for the new plant at the re formatory were outlined by Superin tendent J. N. Herr while he was in Topeka attending the semi-annual contract letting for state institutions. He will draft a bill to be offered dur ing the coming sessidn of the state legislature and will ask that the big twine plant at the. state prison be du plicated in the erection of a similar industry for the Hutchinson penal in stitution. The twine plant at Lansing was recently rebuilded after having been destroyed by fire. It cost the state of Kansas about $73,000, while a similar plant with the same machin ery, equipment and capacity cost the state of Wisconsin $170,000. Herr be. lieves the plant at Hutchinson can probably be built as cheaply as the one at Lansing. There are about 275 inmates of the Hutchinson reformatory and Superin tendent Herr believes he could spare enough men and boys from the shops and reformatory farm to keep the twine plant running. It would require about sixty men to operate a plant similar to the one at Lansing. "We not only feel the need of addi tional industries at the reformatory," said Herr, "but believe the location of a twine 'plant at the Hutchinson in stitution would be an excellent move on the part of the state. We are right in the heart of the wheat belt of Kan sas and a twine plant at the reforma ory would do much toward keeping down the cost of binder twine to the Kansas farmers." Appropriation of $100,000. Herr believes the plant can be built for $75,000. At least, that sum will be asked and it is possible that the amount of the appropriation may be stretched to $100,000. Recently the Hutchinson reforma tory completed the erection of a new $15,000 manual trades school for the inmates of the institution for men and boys between the ages of 16 and 24 years. In addition to this the reform atory in 1913 landed an appropriation for a broom factory. That industry has but recently started and will in the future provide the supply of brooms for all state institutions. The reformatory is equipped with the usu al shops and Industries and in addi tion to this work, the inn.ates do most of the work on the 1,280 acre farm. At the present time the reformatory population is but 235, although the normal average is about 275 inmates. "We have sufficient men," declared Herr, "to look after 'he proposed twine plant without neglecting any of the work now being done at the in stitution." The proposition to build the twine plant at Hutchinson is the first pub lic statement of a proposed demand upon the state legislature for new state industries. The bill, however, will doubtless have the support of many of the western members of the state legislature who feel the demand for a state twine plant in that district to more effectually fight the prices of the harvester trust and corporations which furnish most of the binder twine during the wheat cutting sea- "Tou sometimes dinagree with these scientific experts?" "Not at all," replied the serene egotist. "Notwithstanding the fact that I have thought a matter out to a sound conclusion, they frequently insist on disagreeing with me." Wash ington Star. IT DROPS FROM A Cr'DGE King of Hewsies Prolongs His Topeka Visit. Yelled "State jQl-nal" Cry From Dome This JJoon. A Distance of 125 Feet Above His Track. Lands Only 10 Feet in Front of His Engine. Pittsburg, Pa.. June 27. Stopping a fast passenger train in time to save it from thirteen tons of solid steel, fall ing from a height of 125 feet, was the feat of EL C. Ripley, a Pennsylvania engineman, of which his friends and railroad nv-n were talking today. Ripley was bringing his train into the city under a bridge being built high above the railroad tracks. As he rounded a curve he saw a car load ed with steel beams get beyond con trol on the finished portion of the bridge, and dash down a grade to the uncompleted end directly- over the track on which his train was running. Ripley applied the emergency brakes and stopped his engine, just as the heavy beam and car hit the track ten feet in front of him. Passengers were shaken but no one was hurt. BIG S.S. PARADE. Fifty-Thousand Men and Boys Join in the March. Chicago. June 27. Fifty thousand men and boys assembled here today to march in the parade of the Interna tional Sunday school association, in convention here. Fifty altars were prepared to be carried on the should ers of marching men, one at the head of each division. Behind each altar was to be borne an open Bible. A squad of mounted police and an escort of the national guard was detailed to head the parade. Older bovs and older girls confer ences were the principal sessions of the day before the great parade. The problem of interesting and Instructing boys and girls approaching maturity and delivering them safely to the church as full fledged members was set for discussion in. two conferences in different churches.

A large number of athletic clubs, high school colleges and univer sities in this section of the country were represented. The meet is the biggest of the summer in the Missouri valley.

A new kind of grass has appeared in Topeka yards and is driving out bluegrass in some of them. It is of a bright green iwth a considerably finer leai that tne bluegrass, and while it grows thickly where well started it does not make such a sod as does the herbage which Ingalls made famous in his "Essay on Bluegrass." Botanists will please come forward with an ex planation of the new invasion. Some say it is Buffalo grass. The next meeting of the State Pro bate Judges' association will be held in Topeka, thanks to the efforts of Judge Hugh MacFarland, who did some effective log rolling at the meet- 1 ing at Abilene this week. One effective argument on his behalf was the fact i that the legislature would be in session sand the judges in attendance would have an opportunity of looking after their own recommendations to that body. One new idea which they want enacted into law calls for the publication of ap plications for marriage licenses two weeks before granting. Such a regula tion would have headed off a recent suc cessful action of a young society man of Topeka who procured a license to marry a girl who didn't agree to the proposition. RETAIL TRADE GOOD.

SPENDING $5,000,000. i Ford Is Nearly Doubling the Sis of Hia Factory. I Detroit. Mich., June 27. Henry Ford, after having given away 110,000,000 of profits to his employees, is spending $5.C00,CO0 more on additions to his enor mous plant. This will almost double it in size and make it. according to the superintendent of construction, the largest factory in the world. 1 Seven new factory buildings, each six stories hish, sixty feet wide, 900 feet long, coating (500,000 each, will be added. A new power plant with a line engine of 30,030 horse power will complete the addi tions. The Ford plant, which now covers 46 acres, will cover 85. That Ford will devote a portion of his millions, in searching for a cancer cure, is the announcement made today. This follows the action of Mr. Ford two weeks ago in taking over the partly con structed plant of the Detroit general hos pital, for which he made a payment of $400,000 to recompense donors who had in augurated the hospital plant and con structed part of the $2,000,000 worth of pre pared buildings. i Mr. Ford accepts the theory that cancer is produced by intemperance. With this bel ef he will endeavor to cure cancer by eradicating what he believes to be the": cause. 1 I THETEST GASOLINE, i Best Results From Uncle Sam's Fa vorite "Lily White.- It is commonly known In this lo cality that the best all-round gasoline is the Uncle Sam Oil company's Lily White Gasoline.

STANFORD MARVIN, wealthy manufac turer of automobiles, haa worn hlmaelf out by overwork. Hit eon Harry, and hie adopted daughter, Pauline, love each ether, but ehe wante two years of thrilling experiences eeelng life before mar rying. Her reason le that aha ia ambitious to be a writer. Old Mr. Marvin aeka to eee what she haa written. While Pauline and Harry are In search of a magazine contain Ing her first story, Mr. Marvin opens the Contlnaed from Last Saturdays, CHAPTER II. Copyright, 1914, by the Star Company. Ail Foreign Rights Reserved. OLD MR. MARVIN'S faculties re turned wtth a snap. There was the library just as it had been betors his peculiar seizure. His son Harry was summoning on the telephone Or. Stevens, the heart specialist, and Pauline, his adopted daughter, was on her knees chafing his hands and anxiously watching his face, while Owen, the secretary, was pouring out a dose of his medicine. But the peculiar yellow light had gone. And what about the mummy? It stood just as he had left it, the lower half of the case was In place, the upper half was out, revealing the loosened bandages and just a glimpse of the fore head. One strand of Jet black hair hung down. All was just as it was when the little vial had fallen out. "I'm all right, I'm all right." protested Mr. Marvin, somewhat testily, as he twisted about in his chair to get a good view of the mummy. "Look out. Harry, don't step on that little bottle." Harry looked down and picked up the tiny vial which had fallen from the band ages wrapped about the aneient form. "Smell of K." his father ordered. Harry sniffed It and remarked that It smelled musty and passed it to Pauline. The girl carried It to her nostrils again and again. She looked perplexed. t "Well, what do you think it Is?" asked the old man. "Why I can't remember, but I ought to know. I'm sure I do know." "The devil you do," muttered her foster father. "What makes you think you ought to know?" "Why, it is so familiar. I'm certain I've melted it often before. Haven't I?" "Well, If you have, Polly, you are a lot elder than I am, older than anything in this country, as" old as the pyramids. That bottle fell out of the mummy, and I can assure you it hss been there some three r four thousand years. When I smelled of that bottle it had a queer effect on me. I felt as If I were' going to have one of any fainting spells and was glad to get back to the chair. It's funny about that mummy. I thought she came out and talked to me." s "Why, father, what a horrible thing!" Sympathized Pauline. "Not horrible at all. She was a beauty and a princess. She was Interested in your picture. Polly, and she looked like you. too except, let's see yes, her hair was black. Jet black, like that one lock you see hang ing down." "Oh," Interrupted Pauline, "1 wish my aalr were black, and I often dream that it Is, and that I am walking around tit a pretty, white pleated dress and my feet are bare." "And a bracelet on your wrist your right wrist?" questioned Marvin eagerly. "I don't .remember," li'Une replied thoughtfully. "Well, we'll see If you had one and also whether I was dreaming or not." an nounced the old man with a half ashamed look as he rose somewhat unsteadily to his feet Harry and Pauline tried to keep him quiet. He brushed their warnings aside and walked unsteadily to the mummy. "Let's see its face." suggested Harry carelessly. "No." said his father. "I have an idea that this old but young lady would not caTe to have ua look at her. But there is one thing I must find out. I want to know if ahe wears a bracelet of linked fecarabs on -her right wrist or not" All of this was rather a bore to Harry, who lived intensely in the present, had a Interest in Egypt, except that Pauline was -.born and adopted as an orphan baby there and asked nothing- of the future exeept that It allow him to marry this obstinate bat fascinating llttl creature at the aril set possible mo meat. The question aad been brought-p half an hoar before, and he wanted ft s-ed at once. -Harry wished they would decide about ths mam' rlage Instead of resatag ereaaa with aa Then SEE It All Presented case of a mummy just arrived from Egypt Raymond Owen, his rascally private secre tary, helps lift off ths front of the case, but leaves old Mr. Marvin to remove the mum my's bandages alone. Marvin during a fainting spell, sees the half-exposed mum my come to life, step out of her case, take a bracelet from her wrist and try to force It Into his nerveless grasp, while her lips reveal a strange message from the remote past. old mummy. "My son, I venture to say that you would have been interested in this young woman had you met her." 1 "Possibly," the youth admitted with a slight yawn. "Yes," continued bis father, busily searching for the mummy's right wrist, "she was probably what you would call a peach." "She may have been a peach In her day." thought Harry, "but to-day she's a dried apricot." The elder Marvin's searching fingers en countered a hard object. It proved to be a scarab, or sacred Egyptian beetle, carved In blackstone. "Did you ever dream about that?" asked Harry, chafflngly. "Yes, I have," replied Pauline. Both men looked at her to see If she were serious. "I dreamed that I was very sick and going to die, and an old man with a long, thin beard came In. He gave me a stone beetle like that Then it seems to me they put it right on my chest and they said let's see, what did they do that for? I think It was to cure me of something the matter with my heart.' "Polly, said Mr. Marvin. "I never knew you had dreams like thla But are you sure they said It would cure your heart? Wasn't It for some other reason?" Pauline thought a moment, while Harry lit a cigarette and his father worked his fingers down toward the mummy's right wrist. "No." said Pauline "I remember aow. It wasn't to cure It at alL It was to make It keep quiet." "Ho! ho!" laughed Harry. "I never knew of any one making it flutter much. 1 guess that was no dream." Harry's father silenced him with nn im patient gesture and turned to Pnuline. who was watching the wind make cat's paws on the polished surface of the Hudson River. "Go oh. girl, go on. This is remarkable I have read of this custom In the Egyptian 'Book of the Dead.' Why did they want to Keen your heart quiet?" "They said," continued Pauline, dreamily, "that after I died my spirit was to be called before somebody God. I guess who would judge whether I was good enough for Heaven or not. That stone beetle was placed on my heart to make it keep silent and not tell anything wicked I .night have done In life. Aren't dreams crtty things? Say, Harry 4ere goes a hydroplane" The two young people hung out the open window. The old man was absorbed, too He had at last worked his fingers along th entire length of the mummy's right wrist It was dry and hard as any mummy he hal ever seen, but it bore neither bracelet nor any ornament whatever. "Well," he said, reluctantly. "It was ail a dream. Interesting but nit Important. Like Polly's dream, it was just the echo of some thins I have read or seen." "Oh, pshaw! what are dreams, anyway 7" muttered Harry, with Impatience. "Dreams," said Pauline authoritatively dreams are the bubbles which rise to the surface of the mind when It cools down in sleep." "Now," 'observed Harry, quietly, "when you and father are through talking abou mummies and dreams I wish you woul. consider something that I am Interested in I'd like to know how soon you are going t marry me?" "Where did yon get that definition o dreams. Polly?" asked the old man. "Prom my story." said Pauline proudl Both men at once remembered ihat sh had gone to find the magazine and shoi them her first story. They eagerly de mended to see it Pauline picked up the Cosmopolitan tron the floor. She had dropped It in her agitc Uea at finding her foster father had fainted Sot enough, there it-was: TIRK ON AN OCEAN LINER." By Pauline Marvla. -It was not the biggest feature by any meaaa but It was quite a tKtie story, and there were several big sad stirring ill ne ar to read in Wonderful Moving Pictures by Written by Charles Goddard :he Distinguished Playwright, Misleading Lady," "The Ghost Breaker, "The Man from o them, but she modestly declined. Mr. v1arvin adjusted his spectacles and read it hrough from start to finish, frequently ooking up to compliment the authoress on ome point that pleased him. Harry looked fm ,ver 8 fftthers shoulder, and there could drilled by the story. It was the tale of a young ship's officer bo fell in love with one of the passengers -a world-renowned dancer. The love was turned and all might have been well had ot the captain of the ship happened to be ie young officer's father. The captain dls pproved. and In his double authority of ,-iptain and father he forbade the young tan to have anything further to do with e fair passenger. Then came the discovery of the dre. It .vas in the cargo, and though serious, could probably be conquered in time. The great problem was to keep the passengers in Ignorance until the fire was out. The young officer told the dancer of the secret danger and persuaded her to give an exhibition of her famous skill in the forward saloon Through her efforts the passengers were saved from panic. When ail was over and the fire out, the captain's gratitude to the young woman overcome his opposition and It ended as all true love Should. Mr. Marvin claimed his hands and stated in a loud voice that he was proud of her Harry expressed his appreciation by a beanl Ike hug and a kiss, ail of which ahe accepted with blushes and protests. "And er did they actually pay yon something for this?" asked the old gentle man, whose orderly, business-like mind classified things as much as possible accord fng to their financial return. "Oh. yes," Pauline assured him.' "they sent me a -check at once. It paid for that frock you told me was too extravagant" "A hundred dollars?" ventured Harry from the depths of his ignorance of things feminine. Both Pauline and his father cast pitying glances at him. "Look here, young man." said the elder Marvin, "whoever led you to believe that you could buy dresses for a girl like Polly at a hundred dollars? If you contemplate matrimony on any such deluded basis as that you had better tack out now before it's too late. Isn't that so. Polly?" "Why, father," protested the youth. "what do I care what her dresses cost? Polly knows everything I have or ever make Is hers, and I can't think of a more satisfactory way of spending; it than on her." "That's fine. Harry." laughed the father "you have just the ideal frame of mind and the proper sentiments for a modern husband. You will find, too, that women are very reasonable. If a man gives his wife all he makes, plus the vote, and lets her do just as she pleases, she'll usually let him live in the same house with her. and even get up early enough to see him at breakfast once In a while." "I agree to everything," declared Harry with the reckless abandon of youth In love. "But I want to know how soon Polly Is ?oing to marry me." Pauline, who had said nothing In an swer to the preliminary skirmishes, now recognized the main attack and opened up In reply. "I told you I would marry Harry some time, but not for a year or two. You ad mined that a writer ought to see life In order to write well. So there you are. 1 must have a year or two of adventure There are a thousand things 1 want to do and see before settle down as Mrs. Harry Marvin. Suppose we say two years." Harry staggered back as if from a blow Two years! How preposterous! He couldn't live that long without Jfaullne In vain he hurled his protests and objec tions. She stood, sweet, unruffled, sym pahetlc. but as firm as the Rocky Moun tains. The old man listened to the debate for some time without comment. Then he pressed a button on his desk. In answer to the bell came Raymond Owen, the secretary. He had shown the good taste to retire from the library, as soon as the conversation became personal. From the vantage point of a room across ie hall he had been quietly listening and -4 This Is baas Ua Matlea Picture Flint of r- v.- The Sad Dest Co-Author wit TL, Pud Dickey of I ll the Sea," Etc decided It a rather' unfruitful piece o' eavesdropping. He looked the falthfu' deferential employe in every line as h entered. It was natural lor him to too' honest because he had been honest untl a few years before the morphine habi ruined him morally. "Come here. Raymond," directed tb old man, as 'sharply as a commanding o fleer, "and you, Harry, and yon, Pauline They obeyed and quickly lined up b tore his chair with rather surprised face tor Mr. Marvin only called them Paul!: and Harry when he was very serious. "Raymond, this Is the situation: My sc. loves Pauline and wants to marry her t once. I have no objection; in fact, I wou like to see them united at once, but Pa line demurs. She loves Harry, hut fee she ought to have two years to see life b fore settling down. Two years is to much." T should say so," growled Harry. "But. as my old g-andfather. who has been gone these forty years now, used to say: 'When a woman will, she will, and when she won't, she won't and there's an end on't.' I don't blame her tor want ing to have her own way. It's the only plan I've found to get along in this world, but you can't have all your own way. You have to compromise. So Polly la going to have one year that's enough. "During that year. Raymond. I'm going to put her in yonr care. You are older and more prudent than either Polly or Harry and will see that she comes to no harm Take her anywhere she wants to go around the world if she likes, to do any thing, within reason. Do you agree?" Mr. Marvin looked at Owen, who ac cepted the duty as calmly as If It were an order to post a letter. Polly also con sented after a moment's hesitation. Harry alone protested and argued. It was a hopeless case and he yielded to over whelming odds. This matter settled. Mr. Marvin's mind returned to the mummy and his curious delusion that it had come to life. While Owen perused Pauline's story and that wilful young woman herself tried to cheer up her disconsolate lover, the; old man re-' turned to the mummy. He had searched for the bracelet on the right wrist, but. after all, perhaps the Egyptian might have slipped It onto her left wrist In her harry to get back. 'TJhere It is," he shouted suddenly; "there It is the bracelet. She wore It on her wrist and he told her to give It to Polly.." Mr. Marvin held In his hand a bracelet of scarabs linked together. It looked to him to be the very one the reincarnated mummy had worn. Harry and Pauline In wonder came to him. and It was well they did. The excitement and exertion had again overstrained his failing energlea Ha tottered, and they were just In time to save him from a fall. It was another of his fainting spells and they lowered him gently Into his chair. But the old man was not uncon scous yet Feebly he repeated to Paul line "Wear this bracelet wear it always promise" Pauline promised, and slipped It on bet wrist without more than glancing at it. The old man's eyes cltsed, and It was clear that this faint was more serious than his others. Harry, about to tele phone lor Dr. Stevens again, was greatly relieved to see the physician stride Into the room. There was hardly need of the stethescope to tell him tne end was near. A sort of telepathic signal warned every one In that mansion that something had happened to the master. When he was carried upstairs to his bedroom It was under the eye of all servants. Even before he was undressed and Is bed Dr Stevens had prepared and admin istered a hypodermic. The patient's eye lids fluttered and Dr Stevens listened to the faintly moving lips. "The will." called the doctor, "what about the will?" He glanced at wary one, but nobody knew. A shadow of anxtetr passed over the A? T- wi 4 -PaaHaW a Am c2 12r. Ilan&a. Fata Playi u f4 the Famous Pathe II 3 .'his Is from the Motion .tcture r'ilin of The Disreputable Hieka Whispers features of the dying millionaire Dr. Stevens could see that something of seri ous Importance was on the old man's mind something of importance about his vast property. One more he listened and then hastily drawing out his prescrpltlon pad aad .fountain pea he wrote a few sentences at the dying man's dictation, while the pa- tlent rallied and opened his eyes The physician held the blank before his' pa tlent, who read It through and aodded. Dr. Stevens then placed the paa In the trembling fingers and.' guided ala signs- ture. A moment more and the physician had signed It aa a witness and the butler had done the same It occurred to Dr. Stevens that Mr. Marvin might be able to read this hastily written will again, and he called for more tight "Turn on those tungstens," he ordered, and placed his ear to the faintly moving lips. These were the words he heard: "Tungsten valve and armature connect ing rod and tracks Rocker-arm and counter shaft aad over ,'kead and tax." Thus the old manufacturer died aa he had lived, with his mind on the great la dustry he had built up Dr. Stevens won dered If he would be happy In -any heaven unless it contained his precious rocker arms and counter shafts, tungsten valves and tracks. The will written on Dr. Stevens's pre scrlptlon pad was given to Owen. He went to his room and examined it It read "Bodley Stevens. M. D. "Rx. I bequeath half my estate to my son, Harry, the remainder to my adopted daughter, Pauline, to be held in trust until her marriage by my see rotary, Raymond Owen." Then followed the signature of the do ceased and that of the two witnesses. Ia vain Owen looked for the handsome be qaest to "the faithful secretary." This was a bitter disappointment and he con sidered for a moment the advisability of destroying the will. This would make valid one of the earlier wills in which he kne he had not been forgotten. The folly of such a cou.-se teame evi dent after a few moments' thought Dr Stevens, the butler, and several others knew the contents of the document. It was so simple that Its meaning could hardly be confused or forgotten, and every one knew it was in ,his keeping. It occurred to Owen that quite likely such a hasty death-bed will written' by a doctor unskilled In law might not be accepted b the courts. Early the next morning Owen suspended his work of answering telegrams of condo lence long enough to make a hurried trip to lower Manhattan, where the late 8 tan ford Marvin's lawyers had offices. Owen had taken pains to first telephone the law rer' aad excite his curiosity about ths strange prescription pad wilL By this lit tie piece of forethought he escaped the usual hour's wait which lawyers habitually inflict on such of their clients as they dare The senior member of the firm read ths document through. He frowned at It aad shook his head, for this sort of document is always distasteful to legal lights. Here was the will of one of America s wealth iest mea. which should have contained 20,000 words or more, all in the compass of less than thirty, written In a few sec onds by a doctor. In vain the great lawyer cudgelled his brains for some flaw. The will ought to be wrong, but K wasn't The meaning was so clear that even a court couldn't mis understand it, and the fortune was left to bis natural beneficiaries. The lawyer, heaved a sigh aad said plaintively: "Too bad, too baa. Why didn't they all net" -Then this win Is not valid?" asked Owea. "Oh. no, it will hold; but what a pity that such a great man's last will and tes--smeat should be such an well, so well, this Instrument Is not worthy of convey 'ng such a great estate" Ho coatamptaoualy slipped the simple document la to aa envelope aad placed It in his safe Owen picked ap his hat, but hesitated at the door. A question was formlac in his mind and with it a hope "Mr. Wilmerdlng." he asked finally, "m case Miss Marvra does not marry who would have charge of the estate?" -I shaald say." replied the lawyer, "to reply to your question that the estate would be bald la trust by yea."

Hicks, with his gaudy attire and ugly face was always an affront to the eye. but to Owea he was a terror, for he held the power of black mail over the secretary. Owen shrank at the sight of his enemy, Hut Immediately took courage. Thougtt Marvin's death had left the secretary ao legacy It had also robbed the blackmailer of his power. Hicks advanced with what he Intended to be a winning entile aad extended a hot, rat hand. "I see the old man' has croaked aad 1 was just dropping la to talk business." Hlcks's newsboy voice growled out "Hicks." said Owen, keeping his hand la his pocket "you came here to get year money, out of the legacy old man Marvla was to leave me. Well, yoa won't get It aad yon never will get It Marvin didn't leave me a cent, so there Is nothing fes yon to get He did leave me a job la his will, a job that will last for a year, aad neither yon nor any one else can force me out of that job. Yen can't blackmail me any more." "At the end of the year what becomes of yonr' asked Hicks. "Then I get a position somewhere else; but that Is none of your business." "You don't want a position, Owen. A position calls for work. You don't like hard work any more than I do. You can't stand work much longer, either. Look at your eyes and your skin. How maay grains do you take a day. anyway?" "I haven't touched a grain of morphine la six months," lied Owen. "But get oat of my way you can't get- anything out ot me and you '-a n't blackmail me. If yon come to this bouse again 111 have yos thrown out" "Just a minute," sstd Hicks, as pleas antly as he could, straining his coarse, features Into the unaccustomed position ot a smile "I didn't come to get money out of yon I know all about the win What I came for. was to help yon and give yoa a tip. You sad I can make a lot of easy money together. You've got the oppor tunity and I've got the brains. Now. tc show you I'm your friend, look at thla" Htcks handed him a paper which Owen read with surprise It was a receipt In full' for all Owen owed Owen put It la hla pocket "That's right keep It. You and I are going to be so rich before long that a mat ter of a thousand or two wouldn't be worth talking about between friends." Owen hsd been under the thumfe of thl? nan, had feared and hated him and bo pec for the day when he might sneer la hlf face and defy him. This was the time, aad yet be felt Hicks had something .to offer. He was In temporary charge of millions. There should be. there must be, some way to make this control permanent -or else to delve Into these millions while they were in his care. As Hicks hinted, this was an opportunity and he needed not brains, bu' rather experience and advice. Owen bad been a rascal only a short time way not take a partner like this man Hicks? He would prevent mistakes, aad mistakes are all a criminal need fear. Owen fingered uneasily the paper Hicks had put la his hand. He drew It eat of bis pocket yea. It was a receipt ha fall for an that Owen owed the scoundrel. What could be Hlcks's scheme? Owea turned a tailzied aad worried gaae apaa Ms com panion.

DOG CAT EDD YTORIUtT You can make tip your mind that we have been party hard pat to it to find a subjeckt to write a eddy toriul about for this ishue of the Bugle or else we wouldn't write one about "Dogs Cats." We newer thort we would haft to stoop so low in our perfeshion as a writer of dignifide eddytoriuls as to disgrase this colum by dis cussing sich a unworthy subjeck. but there don't seem to be nothink left under the sun, moon stars to write about at this time, so here goes: In other words they is altogether too many cats dogs in Bingvflle we don t care who knows it. Cats dogs is all right in moderashion m other words enuff cats dogs is a genteel suffishency, but too menny is sooperfloous. Things has come to sich a pass in Bingville that a person can't skeercely walk down Mam st. with out axidentally unintenshionally stepping on a dog s tail when he ups and bites you on the caff of the leg or somewheres else without stopping to think whether you done it a purpose or not. We like a dog er a cat as well as ennybuddy. but when they become thickern bees then we are of the opinyun that there ort to be some think did about it. There ain't a day passes that several dog fites don't take place on Main st. and these is generally follerd in most cases by man fites 'on the part of the owners of the dogs who thinks their curs ain't had. fair play. As a result the peeceful calm of our village is disturbed them as has been buzzum friends amongst us has been made enemies for life etermtty. Then when the day has went and gone and we go to bed expecting to sleep like so menny logs we are kept awake most of the night by the dingbusted cats fightin and squallin under our winders w hitch nearly drives us to distrackshion and makes them of us who is mem bers in good standing of the Bing ville church lay there in bed and bust to smithereens the command ment whitch says, "Thou shalt not swear. :i What we need ort to have m Bingville is a cat dog lisence. Let our town selecktmen hold a mtg and deside to make them who barbers cats dogs in our midst Was a tax on each dog or cat as the case mav he. af uv. BO rta ner annum per cat or dog. If thi was did we persoom that there is a lot of folks in our midst who would j manage somehow or other to git Ishet of their cats ft dogs' ruther tnan pay ucc a exorurant tax on same. Subscribe for the .Bugle! it gives all the news Be even persents a eddytoriul on cats dogs when it has to.

Rain his been quite plenty-too'' tndi: (in fackt by spells, and as a result sdnte of the -gardens has. been almost drownd ont. We desire to state that we was In er ror in stating in last wit's Bugle that Atnri Haines had the toothake. Amri informs us that the alee spoke of was not in his tooth, hut in his head. that he thort to goodness he couldn't stand it. Amri ort to be glad becuz this only goes to show that he must have a pow erful lot of brains in his head to ake him like that. Enos Snodgrass purchased a poms plaster at Hen Weathersby's store and had it charged wk before last to put on his back for plumbasro, whitch Hen says it was good for. Enos says he cal kilates the porus plaster made his plumbago worse if ennythink. Yester day Enos had his wife try to remoove the plaster, but when she give -it a yank it stuck and Enos hoHerd until he could be heerd all over BingviTle.. Enos told her if it v-as a going to stick like that or else take the hide off with it to let it stick until kingdom come. Enos says it's a good thing he had that plaster charged, being as now heU newer pay for it. Miss Tabitha Underwood wore a new tite fitting skirt to church last Sunday and when she went to set down' in the pew there was a rippin sound whitch could be heerd all over church, and Ta bitha bltisht like everythiuk. It was her skirt that ripped the sprain when she set down was too much for it. Tabitha waited until the audience had all dis persed after service, then she snuk home the back way.- Peter Hpskins is on the sick list. Pete says he is turrible miserable to his stummick and that even when he don't eat nothink but a cupple of peeces of pie and a few doughnuts he don't feel well after. Pete's stummick must be weak if this is the case. Lckat Squibs Miss MHly Underwood met with a turrible-calamitty tother day. She jest finished eroshajnng a fancy work doily and laid it -down a minnit when the pup come along and chewd it alto peeces. Milly kickt at the pup when she found it out, but missed the pup and kickt the door jamb, nearly breaking two toes, now walks with a limp.

He savs he bexrudKes everv cent every time he has to pay em. Don't fbrgit that the Bugle circulates among the best families m Bingville ft vicinitty and is the best advertising medium in this lokaUty, being as it is the only paper in this end of the co. Keep this in mind when yon have somethink to advertise. Ezra Underwood give out that he was a going to kill a spring lamb last wk. whitch be done, and peddled it from houM to housa until it was an sold. Evsrybuddy who booght some of Ex ces lamb Md it was tuflfem sole leather and told s they didn't believe a word about It being a spring lamb. Es told em. yes it was a last spring two-year ago spring lamb. It is our opinion that Es won't gain nothink by this kind of trickery and heU find it out when he tries to sell another spring Iamb. On investigashion we have discuverd that we ain't got no file coppy of the Bugle for Aprile 18, 1884. and we would like to have one if possible. Enny per son having a coppy of a Bugle of this description who will persent us with same with their compliments will be liberally thanked. Then we will have a complete file. Clem Wilson ketched a pickerel whitch he said weighed 5 lbs. on his butter skates in Snake Crick tother day. If pern weighed it on his butter skales whitch he uses to weigh butter for his custummers it probably weighed about 2 lbs. correckt weight, espeshially if his skales said it weighed five.

Bod Bill Have Trubble Bud Hinckley, who ain't quite right in his head, got into quite, a scrape tother day with Bill Hepburn, our ar tistick blacksmith. For a wk or more poor Bill has been' suffering turrible from a big carbunkle on the back of his neck, whitch has been slow coming to a bead and probably -wouldn't of come to a head yet if it haddent been for Bud. For several days the carbunkle has distresd Bill so- that he couldn't work, and .has spent most of his time settin on Hen Weathersby's front store porch moanin ft groan in and wiihin he was well enuff to make a trip to the co. seat for a gal of licker in whitch to drownd his sorrers. Well, tother day -as Bin set there. Bud come along behint him and seeing the carbunkle on the back of Bill's neck naturally had a curiositty to examine it and see what it was, so without saying ennythink to Bill Bud give the -r car bunkle a bard push with his finger. Bill let out a yell that could be heerd two mile, then he up and started after Len Is a Pcor Barber Lem Gookins had quite a unpleasant exoerience last wk whitch we persoom he won't forgit for quite a spell and whitch has changed his appearance to sich a extent that even his best friends don't know him until they git up clost. Lem ain't had a haircut or shave tor so lon that he has lost track of when he did have the last one, but sinst warm wether has came Lem desided that it would be more comfortable to have his whiskers come off and his hair likewise, so he went down to Harve Hines, our tonsorial barber's shop, and askt Harve how mutch he would take to cut his hair, being as he could shave hisself all he wanted fisrsrerd was a haircut Harve told him he would cut his hair for the reglar price, a quarter, but Lem said this was too mutch, being as his hair wassent very long ennyhow, and tried to beat Harve down, but Harve wouldn't beat so at last Lem went off mad and said he'd be jiggerd if he wouldn't cut his own hair. Well, Lem got along first rate shav ing off his whiskers. He used the shears first on his whiskers, then the razer, only cut hisself five times on .v.. t,;trh ain't had considering that it's been so long sinst he had enny pracktise shaving nisseix. Next Lem propped a mirror up be x t.1 --a n work aheannar off 1UI6 M'llt M his hair.

Folks hereabouts is so used to seeing Lem with whiskers ft long hair that skeercely nobuddy knowd him at first and thort there was a stranger in town until he made knowd who he was.

No doubt about Woodrow Wilson be ing a normal man. He fails to ob serve his wedding anniversary. A peeved golfer plays no favorites. One of them roundly "cussed" the president of the United States the oth er day. Attention, disappointed lovers! Dr. Axel Werelius, of Chicago, announces that "no injury of the heart, no mat ter how violent, should be considered hopeless. Some people are sure to say that the terrible fire which devastated Salem, Ma, Is merely retributive justice for the burning of witches there In the pood old days. President Wilson seems to be ob sessed with the idea that he should be permitted without question to do all the thinking, not only for congress, but also for all the people of the country. President Wilson Is of the opinion that the country is on the verge of prosperity. But it won't be brought about by the economic machinations of the statesmen at Washington. The bumper crops will turn the trick. Colombia is probably wishing that Colonel Roosevelt had remained on the River of Doubt until Mr. Bryan had consummated his plan to make it a present of $25,000,000, with an ab ject apolosry thrown In for good measure. Xews from Oyster Bay has It that Colonel Roosevelt is making prepara tions for one of the hardest political campaigns that he has ever under taken. And everybody is entitled to just one guess as to what he is cam paigning for. Regardless of the attitude of the hopeful, watchful waiters at Washing ton, General Funston may be depended upon to see to It that further sniping of the American ontposts around Vera Crux Will not be Indulged in by the Mexicans with Impunity. ProspecH of being presented with a paid-in-full life membership in the Ananias club were evidently not to the liking of Dr. Hamilton Rice, thet ex plorer. He writes to .Colonel Roose velt that he was mistaken when he questioned the discovery of the River of Doubt. "If you wear a smile hot weather doesn't bother you," is some timely and excellent advice from Miss Mar garet Wilson, a daughter of the presi dent. But the Jokeymiths are certain to suggest such a costume is rather taboo except in the South Sea Is lands, or other heathen lands where it's summer all the time. A New Torket who made his living as a chauffeur has a notion that a spoonful of his brains is worth $50, 000. all of which might be accepted as proof that it takes an exceedingly brainy man to run ail automobile. But maybe the man he holds responsible for the loss of that amount of gray matter, and whem he is suing for the sum mentioned, is well fixed finan cially. Maybe the failure of the H. B. Claflin company is only one of the larger details of the "conspiracy" that Is suppose to be id existence for the promotion of a business depression for the mere purposs of giving the Demo cratic administration a black eye. But who would' be so foolish as to believe any such thing, with the possible ex ception, of course, of some of those who are responsible for the Demo cratic administration T COHX PROSPECTS GRKAT. I Attention seems to be centered al most exclusively on the Kansas wheat ;crop. This is natural because of its tremendously unusual proportions. jBut what of the Kansas corn? Secre 1 tarjr Coburn of the Kansas department of agriculture once hit a nail on lt head with his usual directness when !he pointed out that while It was the hl..li naA Vtmaaa famnUS. It 'was the corn that made Kansas rich. There ars a variety of reasons for th:sv In the first place, under the PriCGS that have prevailed of late years, the average yield of an acre of corn ia worth more money than the average yield of an acre of wheat. But Ithe profit to the producer is even t. return by turning it into
pork or beer or .using it ior u iur other stock, than he can by selling It. Even the corn stalks are a valuable fodder. So corn is the king of crops, regard- less of richeo that are reaped In the neat ficiaB, and the notoriety that a bumper whr.at crop attracts. And what of the Kansas corn crop for this year? Prospects for a big yield were never better than they are right now. An agricultural maxim is that an ideel spring season for wheat is bad for corn. But this seems to be a year In .Kansas, at any rate, when the rules of agriculture are to be made notable by exceptions. Of course, the Kansas corn crop is far from bein. out of the woods. It is in wonderful condition at present, though. It has had the best possible start, and a good start with corn, or any other crop Is much more than half the battle. Moreover, with the ground well-soaked by the recent heavy rains, the weather -conditions could not be improved upon to make the corn grow as it should, even if they are a little annoying to the dwellers In the cities. It is not the hot days that mean so much to the corn In its pres ent state of development, as it is the warm nights. And just an even break in climatic conditions from now on will assure Kansas a corn crop of a size that is likely to be remarkable. If such a corn crop matures, Kan sas Will, indeed, be a land o'erf lowing with milk and honey. And as far as this state Is concerned, the material as well as the psychological depres sion in business that prevails so gen erally throughout the country Will be a stranger to It. The Kansas crop, too, will help to put a big crimp in It in other sections of the land. PREPARE VERSUS REPAIR. The statement was made not. very long ago, and I believe it is accurate, that as head of the Children's Bureau, Julia C. Lathrop has done her work during the past year with just enough money to cover the repairs on one tor pedo boat for a year, writes Rabbi Stephen S. Wise in the Survey. The manner of the statement is unmistak ably American and the conditions which it describes are no les3 American. Once upon a time, we said: "Millions for defense and not one cenjt for trib uate." Now we seem to act upon the principle: Millions for repair but not one cent to prepare, or putting It more accurately: Almost any amount for re pair and a grudging minimum with which to prepare. To repair is better than to prepare. seems almost to have become our thought as far as we may be said to thmk upon roclal problems- Why? Be came we lack imagination, because, as some one has said, the news of a dis aster in China which caused the de struction of one hundred millions of people would not affect the average man quite as sharply as would the loss of one of hi3 fingers. Imagination is jutt another name for visioning, and one cannot vision without forevisioning and foreseeing. An3 to foresee is to prepare and to prepare is of the essence of statesmanship in a democracy. HUMAN V1TAI.IZATION. While reading his newspaper, the American business man grabs his noonday meal from a crowded lunch counter, in ten minutes, to hurry back to the office or to keep an appoint ment, never allowing his stomach even five minutes to tako care of what he has eaten, writes Orison Swett Marden in July Nautilus. He forces his blood to the brain to do mental work when it should be in the stomach digesting his food. He hurries about all day as if his very life depends upon his -speed. Ha crowds into a day what a- European Would take several days to accom plish, and then he wonders why he suffers frotn dyspepsia and insomnia, why he Is nervous, irritable, prema turely old vr'-i-- he should be just In his prime.. Very few people ever learn the art of mental and -physical economy. 1 know men who do almost everything with a great unconscious rervous re sistance. They do not conre in per fect freedom to the thing they wish to do. They, are worrying, they ace thinking, there is a constant subcon scious anxiety about something else than tnat v which, they are doing. Their minds are on a stretch and strain, wondering how Something else will turn out or will be done. In other wordst they' are uncon sciously expending a great deal of surplus energy. And with this un dercurrent of trouble, a leakage is going on all the' time, which exhausts the vitality and prevents vigorous concentration of mind upon the thing in hand. TI1K UNITED STATES, A NATION". As Collier's Weekly so well says, un der the above caption, the decision of the United States supreme court in the Shreveport rate case is an epoch-mak ing event in the history of our country. The Texas state railway commission has attempted to fix railroai rates within that state so as to advantage the merchants of Dallas and Houston ir their competition with the wholesalers of Shreveport and other "Louisiana cities. An opinion by the interstate commerce commission.' written by Franklin K. Lane (now secretary of the interior), declared against this policy two years ago, and Mr. Lane's position is now sustained by the supreme court in a verdict written by Justice Hughes. This decision docs much more than merely to check an attempt at local pro tective favoritism, or bounty, by means of freight rates. It strongly vindicates tho national authority over the great national service of transportation, and the inference is plain that for the future our railroads must be. regarded as (Serv ing the national welfare rather than the specific interests of separate communi ties.'' The way is thus cleared for the development of a great national rail road policy i-n a scale to fit the United States. The railroads can go ahead and do the work relieved, to a very great extent, from the Intolerable burden of conflicting regulation. The revised rate structure will be built upon one foundation, not on forty-odd. The com munities that want to foster home in dustry can d'i no by the straightforwird subsidy method Instead of the old Re publican party method of misusing the law. The state commissions will find their true field of usefulness In working out the local requirements of service and safety in harmony with national policy. The supreme court decision marks the beginning of the new era In regulated American railroading. Journal Entries s 1 Few explanations can qualify as good and sufficient reasons. Doing a thing is often' easier than making up one's mind to do it, An exchange that's satisfactory to both parties is not necessarily a fair one.
It Is also true that there are mighty few people who don't live in glass houses. You hear much more about the bad luck that people have than you do concerning their good luck.

Observations by the Marys.'ville Advocate-Democrat: Give the devil his due and humanity would go into in solvency. It is wonderful what sacrifices man makes for love of money.

Since firecrackers went out of style, one July day is much like an other. One young man's Idea of a Joke was to get a marriage license before com pleting arrangements with the young lady in the case; others get consider able enjoyment from setting fire to barns. Tastes vary in jokes, but near ly any very young man considers him self a rare jokist. The suspicion that our government might undertake to mediate the Al banian squabble, should be viewed with alarm by all Europe. So far as the evidence shows, the -word "medi ate" is considered a synonym for "scramble" in our justly celebrated land. While Pinchot is kicking Hon. Per kins out of the Bull party, why not use both feet and include Hon. Bill Flinn? Then, if Hon. Roslnfelt made good his threat, to leave with Perkins, it would leave but three Hons, on the job, Hon.

"As I understand it," says Hondo Murphy, "the word "work" is one of the most clastic in the dictionary. Po licemen often refer to their 'work,' and one time I heard a blind beggar, while waiting for county charity to slip him along to the next town, say him: I wouldn't take a hundred dol lars for him. It takes so long to train a dog for my work.' Maybe the failure of the Claflin company was merely a psychological failure. Mr. Wilson says that the busi ness depression is that kind of depres sion.

As a toter of hardware, Mayor Mitchel has it on the wooliest of the wooly westerners of early .days, who considered a pair of gats a full equipment, H wever, there is more gun work in New York than on the old borderland, so the mayor may be justified in carrying an auto load of six-guns.

(By Louise Merrifleld.) The Lady of the Marshes, Paxton called her. Every morning between 6 and 7 he saw her gallop along the shore road toward the long miles of salt marshes that lay at the end of the Island. The boy that brought up his mail and groceries told him that she lived at the white cottage under the bluffs, and her name was Mona. Paxton grew to .look for her. She was the one flash of color across the dull sameness of the marshes and sea beyond that' ever happened through the day. Bom' times her hair was loose. It was full of coppery lights in the sunshine, and seemed vital and i attractive like its owner. After she had passed the day dragged lone- somely. He had come to the island to get his grip back after the crash. If it had been any one but Dorrance who had clipped every feather off his back he would not have felt so bitter. Somehow he had grown to trust the man as he had never trusted anv other friend. There was something about him that was Irresistible and magnetic. He had listened to his schemes and dreams until they had become tangible and logical. He had made a close friend and intimate of him, introduced him everywhere, ad vanced him money, and vouched for his integrity and standing. After the crash came, Dorrance had disappeared, leaving him to face every liability. He had cleared up and lost everything except the little home back on Echo Island, near Nar ragansett. and a few hundred dollars. This was all, unless one counted in Dorrance's models and the worthless patents on them. So the first weeks on the island had been dark ones. It Isn't good to have one's whole faith :n humanity shaken. Jerry lived alone, trying to get his grip back and nerve until the brown, slim-necked horse flashed by his house every morning, and he grew to watch for its rider. One day there came up a swift summer thunderstorm late in the aft ernoon. He stood in his doorway, watching it break over the tumbling, plunging waves, when there came the beat of hoofs, and she drew up at the gate, with the first whirlwind of Wind swirling the dust behind her. When he came back to the house, after sheltering her horse, she stood before one of Dorrance's tnodelsv "Where did you get that 7" she asked, curiously. It was a submarine boat with an inner safety lifeboat shaped like a torpedo, which could be shot to the surface like a projectile in case of danger. "From a lunatic," he smiled down at her. "It's a tricky little toy. Isn't it? Take off your wet coat." She let him take the damp khaki jacket off and waited for twenty min utes or more before the storm blecv over. In that time she had learned his name, and many of his views on life and one Bob Dorrance in partic ular. But When she left Jerry real ised he had not even found out her name. "I'd like to come down some day to your end of the island," he said as he helped her mount. "It is not picturesque." she returned, hastily, shaking her head. "And my brother does not see any one. He has been very ill for weeks." "Then I shall pray for another thunderstorm." She flushed, but avoided his eyes, and there was a look in her face he could not catch the meaning of. Yet it be came a ort of tacit custom afterward for him to meet her at his gate for a brief morning greeting, to stroke the brown neck of Peter Piper, her horse, and hand her up a cluster of pink roses from the vines that clambered over the porch. After nearly a month he re minded her one day that he did not know her last name. "I don't want yob to," she answered, flushing. "Call me Mona if you wish." "But how will I be able to follow you and find you again when one day you ride over the edge of the marsh yonder, and never come back this way?" "You would not want to follow it you knew." "My lady of the marshes," he said. "But I will follow all the same." He watched her out of flight, down the winding road of the windswept hill until It dipped to the- shore and she was gone. Then he turned back into the cottage and stood staring at the models, the little submarine lifeboat and its mates, and be grinned at them with a glint of his old humor. "You're a fine lot of hopes for a man to hold to when he finds the girl he wants," he said. "Stuff o' dreams, Jerry, stuff o' dreams." He could not rest that night. He sat on the rickety porch overlooking the sea, smoking and thinking. The sky was full of tender pale luminosity, with a young moon curved low in the south, and the fragrance of the roses and honeysuckle seemed to fold him in like a tangible shelter against the coolness of the outer world. And suddenly he saw the rising glow cf light toward the shore road, a flush of rose and tawny leaping gold like the sunrise. Only one cottage lay that way. the white one un der the bluffs. He started for it on a dun, forgetful of everything excepting her danger. Mona was awake. He found her standing in the little garden, dazed and fascinated by the leaping beauty of the flames that darted In and out around the house. It was useless to try to save it, Jerry saw, but the look of hopeless horror in her wide hazel eyes impelled him to the effort. As be started for the doorway, she called after him: "If a Bob he's In the east room! I tried to J get to him Even then he did not catch- the name nor realize that fate had played one of her tricks with him, not until he had groped his way Into the smoke filled room, and found the form of Bob Dorrance unconscious on the bed.

He watched her from the top of the hill, as she came slowly up the rise from the salt marsh left dry by the outgo ing tide. She had marsh marigolds in her hands and daisies, longstemmed clusters of them. Jerry thought he had never seen her look so appealing and adorable. He stood at the top of the little path with outstretched hands, and she laid the flowers in them laughingly. "I don't want them. I want you," he said. "Mona, don't you know I love you She looked away from him out to the sea. "How could I know? You've never told me so. You've only been dear and kind to me always, and saved a poor broken life because I loved It, and taken In two waifs to care for. How could I even guess such a thing, Jerry Paxton?" "His is not a broken life," Jerry told her. "We'll work and find some new way altogether, Bob and I, and my wife will holp us. won't she?" His arms folded around her and turned her to him. Mona leaned her head back with wistful, half-teasing eyes. "Are you allowed to kiss people on the coast patrol path?" But Jerry's response might have been called an experimental one. and it was quite wordless. Only the lady of the marshes understood.

My little niece went to look at the thermometer the other day and re ported a surprisingly high tempera ture.

The shop girl, after much rum maging, produced a 34. "This is the nearest we have," she says. "But," with a persuasive smile, "they run large.". Go into another shop and try again. Here a 38 Is the nearest to' your size. "But they ran small," the shop girl Is sure to add, Perhaps they do run small In one shop and large in another, you sug gest. Perhaps they do. But Inasmuch as I have been told by two clerks- that the same make of shoe ran large and small, I have my suspicions that the angle of vision has something to do with the variance. The astonishing way in which one's definitions of words varies according to the point or view is another strik ing example of what the angle of vis ion can do. For instance, take the terms young, middle-aged and old. I can remember when I should never have dreamed of calling anyone over 25 young, when 35 seemed middle aged, and 50, old. Now-a-days I think 35 is decidedly young, 50 just the gate way to middle age. That's what a change in the position from which I read the thermometer of time hatt done for me. The dear old lady who usfd to do our millinery often said, "IT a woman has a nice looking hat on she looks well dressed, even If the rest of her c.'othes are rather shabby." "A woman cannot look well dressed without good looking shoes," a friend of mine, whose business you niay guess, said to me the other day. "That's the first thing anyone looks at" "Yes, I'm glad I'm in the newspaper business," an enthusiastic young news paper man told me, "because after all it's the biggest and most important business in the world today.

If you've never done this and can af ford it why go to it It will be a change; and a change Is what we all need. But It Isn't necessary to go to all that bother and expense In ord-r to have a change. There are lots of easier ways. For Instance, a painter in Atchison, Kan., last year had a complete change in his ordinary liv ing arrangements without missing a day at his work; and he and his wife were as well rested and had as much fun as if they'd been millionaires with a yacht or a tour of a foreign country. He owned a horse and a spring wag on. At slight cost. he rigged up a kit containing a small shelter tent, some cooking tools and storage room for raw foods. Near sunset when work was over, his wife drove up, he climbed into the wagon, they went to a store for a few supplies and then into the country. Coming to an at tractive spot near a spring or stream, they stopped, tethered the horse, put up the tent, made a Are, cooked sup per, sat for an hour or two around the campflre like gypsies, and then turned In to delicious, unbroken sleep. Up at daybreak, breakfast was like a picnic spread, and the ride back to town a lung-filler. Next evening they went somewhere else. Thus they had a new experience every day. Almost any plan which departs from routine makes a useful vacation. Do some thing different that's the main point Wichita Beacon. From Other Pens RELIGION AND PROGRESS. The religious themes of Dr. Charles W. Eliot ex-presldent of Harvard, have proved a stumbling block to many who profess to find in them merely the im pious and Iconoclastic fundament of modern heresy. His "new" religion has principally offended those who hold that truth is a scaled book whereto no word must be added, wherefrom none Is to be subtracted. There are many, however, who still b-lieVe with Dr. Eliot that religious truth is plastic, and its interpretation adapts itself to the needs of the time. Creeds, symbols, and ritees. Dr. Eliot holds, in the current Christian Register, are subject to re vision. Certainly religion is not ex empt from the law of progress, and the outward manifestations wherein the Ufa of the spirit finds expression change In conformity therewith. An early president of Harvard was expelled from his office and his house In midwinter because he was opposed to the total immersion of infants In baptism. It never was urged that Dr. Eliot should resign because of his religious views. His immunity shows the altered temper of the twentieth century. Day unto day uttereth knowledge, and it is aa error to presume thp.t this is true of the physical realm alone. If It were so. It would mean spiritual stagnation. Philadelphia Public Ledger.

Interesting History of Ancient Settlement Near Topeka. HOTEL USED NOV FOR BARN Site of Frontier Outpost Is Owned bj Arch Johnson. Topeka Took Union Pacific Railway From Residents. The mad rush of civilization has practically wiped out the most of the Kansas log cabins and frontier posts of the early days. There are a few c old cabins, built by homesteaders, scattered over the state. But these are rapidly diminishing in numbers, j They are usual y found in a state of decay or surrounded by a dense growth of sunflowers or brush. Fron tier posts have either grown into cities or have become extinct.

There iare few people of the present gener ation who know that a flourishing lit tle town once stood on the banks of 'oldier creek, about three miles northwest of the city limits of North Topeka.

Johnson now owns the land on which the town of Indianola once stood. The townsite, consisting of 320 acres of the Delaware trust lands, was laid out by M. C. Meeker and J. Tutt in the year 1854. A company was or ganized but laer went into bank ruptcy. The townsite was then bought by George XV. Hines and was later sold to W. W. Phllipps. In 1866 the town consisted of two houses owned by Louis Harris and IUS HO itUBSmiiii.

Both of these were log cabins. Topeka Was Being Staked. At this time the townsite of Topeka was .being mapped and staked. In the next six months a dozen cabins and shacks were erected in Topeka. One of the first residents of Indlanola was Samuel J. Reader, who now lives at-S16 Park street in North Topeka. He homesteaded a quarter-section of land north of the townsite in 18S5. The Slavery Question. It was about this time that the slavery question aroused Kansas and the United States. The population ot the town, about forty men and wo men, was divided in two factions, the free state and pro-slavery. The free state men organized the Indlanola guards. They elected a man named Cole as captain. These guards con sisted of every free state man within five or six miles of the town. There were thirteen of them. The pro-slavery men organized and outnumbered the Indianola guards about three to one. Between the two elements there was a constant distrust. Petty trou bles were of a daily occurrence. When a crime was committed the pro-slavery men blamed the free state men and the free state faction, in turn, in- fFrom a painting by, Samuel J. Reader. Indlanola as It looked in 1861. sisted in suspecting some member of the pro-slavery element. The Fielderings Disarmed. The first real trouble between the two factions di" not begin until 1856. The "row" was started when the pro- slavery men, or Missourians, captured Frank Fieldering and took his rme and side arms from him. This occur red Friday evening. August 29, 1856. Peter Fieldering was also disarmed. It was rumored among the free state settlers that the Missourians were or ganizing with the intention of dis arming all of them. In those days Frank Fieldering was a man who was not afraid of man or devil. He called the Indianola guards together and vowed that there would be blood spilled unless the Missourians gave back his arms. The thirteen free state men took up a position in the woods bordering the town. The Missourians took possession of the town. Here the two "armies' remained for the most part of the night. Each waited for the other side to "start something." The two factions eyed each other like two bulldogs sep arated by a picket fence. There were few rifles in either crowd. Most of the men were armed with shot guns and muskets. The free state men were outnumbered and throughout the night they assumed 'the defensive. At 9 o'clock Saturday morning a truce was called. The cooler heads on both sides prevailed, the Fieldering boys were given their guns and the members of both factions disbanded to their homes. Indlanola Sacked. It did not take long for the two ele ments to stir up another fuss. Soon after the Fieldering trouble Topeka was sacked by a number of Missou rians. The Topekans were almost des titute owing to a number of raids. Finally, in desperation, a number of Topeka free state men raided Indian ola. Most of the stores were owned by pro-slavery men. There was no blood shed but the Topekans sacked every store in Indlanola with the exception of one owned by a free stater. The Topekans outnumbered the Indlanola pro-slavery men and no resistance was made. The School District Organized. Prior to 1862 there was no public school in Indianola. The only schools were private and suppbrted by the pro slavery men. Peter alcVickar came to the town in the fall of 1862 and at tempted to organize the first public school. The pro-slavery men were ad verse to this and worked against It. Samuel J. Reader posted the first school notice in Indianola and a meet ing was called. The free state men succeeded in bluffing the pro-slavery element and district No. 42 was organ ized. The pro-slavery men. In the ma jority and angered at the success of the free state men, elected officers that would not do their duty. The school was not a success for the first year. Later another board of directors was elected. A saloon was converted into a school house and Indianola had a public school. Cyrus Higginbottom. di- TOPEKA DAILY. STATE TUESDAY.

The town consisted of 18 buildings and a flagpole in the year of 1861. There were 13 dwelling houses and stores. Six of the 13 buildings were occupied, or partly occupied by saloons. The general character of the town was rough. There were no bad men. The lawful element prevailed. But there was too much "fire water" sold to avoid trouble. Drunks were frequent and it was often that a "celebration" of this kind ended in a cutting or shooting scrape. The Clinton Hotel. The Clinton hotel, built by William Clinton, is the only building now stand ing. Many are the stories of romance woven about this old building. There is a" record of one man, an Indian, be ing killed in the building. There were many other shooting affairs but none resulted fatally. The building is used as a barn by its present owner. Its sides have been blackened by the sun, wind and rain. But it is still standing. Many of the boards have been torn from its sides but it is in a fairly good condition. The End of Indlanola. The town grew steadily until 1865. The Kansas Pacific Railway company had graded and unloaded ties to build a railroad through the town. Indian ola began to boom. It was then that Topeka woke up and went after this railroad. The town was successful. The settlers of Indianola woke up one morning und saw the construction gangs working toward Topeka. It was then that the citizens gave up." Many of the houses were moved to Topeka. The only one that was finally left to mark the oldest frontier post in the vi cinity of Topeka was the Clinton hotel. It was too large to move. The town site was sold and Topeka began to grow steadily. The school house was moved to Shorey and Indianola after wards became district No. 93. CAYLOR.

GREAT MARXETJS IFFOtiDED Ice Cream for 3,000,000 Per sons Is Made Here. Shawnee County Leads in Value Milk Sold. Shawnee county produces and sells $260,000 worth of milk annual lythis is the highest sum paid for the milk output of any county in Approximately four times nurs butter is made in Shawnee county than In any other county la the state. The dairymen and farmers of this county are unable to supply the butter fat required by Topeka creamery companies. The demand for Topeka made but-ter-Is' nation-wide and consequently there is practically an unlimited market for the products of the Shawnee dairies. More than ten million pounds of butter, equal to ten full train loads of forty cars each will bj shipped from the capital city by commercial concerns this year. Tens of thousands of cattle are milked each day in the eastern two thirds of Kansas to supply the To peka concerns with cream, and a small army of 16,000 farmers bring their product to the stations from which it is shipped to this city. Thousands of pounds of butter are bought from storekeepers in small towns and shipped to Topeka where it is made into what is known as "process butter." Topeka made butter is shipped to all parts of the United States It la known for its excellence of quality. Over four million pounds of sweet milk are handled by the Topeka Pure Milk company In a year in 1913. 1,735.856 pounds was the total of the milk supplied to Topeka cus tomers. Enough ice cream Is produced by Topeka commercial concerns to sup ply a dish of this article to 8,000.000 people. Almost Limitless Market. The foregoing table gives In brief some of the interesting facts concern ing the commercial end of dairying In Shawnee county ana gives an idea oi the almost limitless market that is oien to the fanners and the dairymen of the county for the sale of their products. The figures given indicate that the possibilities in dairying have scarcely been touched in Shawnee. While this county realizes a larger profit In the sale of milk than any county in the state, including Wyan dotte and Johnson counties, which are the source of supply for Kansas City, there are a half dozen counties which have a larger number of milch cows than Shawnee. The Tope'ia creameries have been an important factor In increasing the) price of cream and butter, but a compara tively few years ago farmers often re ceived as little as five or six cents a pound for butter. Now they own their own separators, for the most part, and take their cream to the nearest buying station and dispose of It at a fair price. The skimmed milk they feed to their hogs. Dairymen on Right Track. The fact that about four times more butter is made in Shawnee county than in any other county in the state Is due 'of course to the existence of large creameries at Topeka, and the system of buying cream In other counties. Shawnee county farmer are not Irvine up to their opportunity in the dairy business In allowing vast living quan tities of cream and butter to be ship ped In from elsewhere. But the Shaw nee dairymen are on the right track. As mentioned in the article in this series published in last Saturday's Is sue of the etate Journal, they are tak ing the lead In Kansas In the purchase of pure bred stock. This Is having a tendency to increase the quality of the milk produced. Batter Made on Big Scale. It is almost impossible to compre hend at first thought the magnitude of the creamery business at Topeka. If the pats of butter made in this city were placed aide by side, they would extend to Denver. The Topeka Pure Milk company not only supplies the city of Topeka with nearly two million pounds of milk a year, but furnishes 17,729 pounds of sweet cream for the city supply- The Beatrice Creamery company at THURSDAT. We have with us again, the Justly celebrated Buffalo Willie. Topeka (Continental Creamery com pany), produced eight 'million pounds of creamery and process In 1913 and if the season continues favorable will have an output of ten million pounds in 1914 when both creamery and process butter is considered, this is the largest output of any concern in the world. The Topeka Pure Milk company, which derives its supply In the east ern third of the state, has an output of 565,000 pounds in 1913 butter is often shipped by this concern to Chi cago, Philadelphia and other points by the carload. Trade in Ice Cream. The ice cream business In Topeka causes a further demand upon the dairymen and farmers for cream. In the months of May, June, July. Aug ust and September more than 100,000 gallons are mado by five Topeka firms the Beatrice Creamery company, the Topeka Pure Milk company, Baughman's, Scott Bros., Ziegier and Sons. Topeka ice cream is shipped to all parts of Kansas from May to October. The product Is carefully packed and arrives at its destination in good condition. F. L. S.

There was a sort of three ply, back action, double combination look on Mr. Bowser s face as he entered the house, and for the life of her Mrs. Bowser couldn't make out whether he had fallen heir to a fortune or decid ed to run for office. In this situation she wisely held her peace, and asked no questions, even when she discov ered that he had brought home a package. He vouchsafed no informa tion, but during the dinner hour was pre-occupied and exultant by turns. When they had adjourned to the fam ily room he was ready to explain, and he softly began: "Mrs. Bowser, with your permis sion, I want to try a little experiment this evening." "Is it connected with that package you brought home?"- she cautiously asked. "Somewhat. Ton know how my shoulders have pained me of late? There are mornings when I can scarcely raise my hand to button my collar. I haven't said much to you about It" "I never heard you complain- of your bick and shoulders," she inter rupted. "No." "Only last night you wanted to move the furniture in your bedroom about, and you said you felt like turn ing handsprings." "If I haven't complained," he con tinued, as he preserved his good na ture, "it was because I didn't care to worry you. As a matter of fact. Mrs. Bowser a matter of medical fact I am what is called shoulder-bound.

However, If you have the slightest objection if you want to see me become a victim of the dread paralysis "What did he tell you to do?" she asked. Mr. Bowser went to the hall-tree and got his package and returned with it and held it up and replied: "Simplest thing In the world. It is called a punching bag. You inflate it and hang it up and punch It. The ex ercise benefits every muscle in the back and shoulders. It only cost $t, and I'll get 8500 worth of good out of it. It would also be a good thing for you to practice on. If you don't ob ject I will inflate it and hang it up and pound it a little this evening." "Well, go ahead," she sighed, "but don't blame me." "Blame you about what? How can I blame you? What can happen? I simply hang the bag on the caanaeuer, remove my coat and vest and punch it. Nothing can be more simple. Tou don't expect I'm going to knock the house down, do you." Mrs. Bowser relapsed into silence, while he went ahead with the Inflating. When the bag was ready he hung it up on the chandelier and removed his coat and vest. He had carried his point without much opposition and was bland over it. "Now. then," he said, as he spat on his palms and made ready, "you watch how I do it. It is the greatest exercise in the world. It is warranted to cure dyspepsia, indigestion, neuralgia and so forth, and to straighten up the spine and give a man a military carriage. It is practiced in every college and seminary in the land, and there are few homes without their punching bags. Tou see I stand this way and I reach out this way and I biff! bang! with my left The bill! bang! was a "swat" which would have busted the panel of a door. The ball shot away and upwards as if fired from a cannon, and about half the glass ornaments of the chandelier came rattling down on the floor.

Perhaps you'd better go upstairs and avoid the racket,, and I'll hitch the bag to that telephone wire on the eetltac." Mra Bowser promptly disappeared, and he got the stop ladder and gave the bag a hang from the wire. When he squared off before it again he was alone and an tra, minded, and he mean to to knock eevea bells out of something. The bag had a long play, and as he hauled off en it there was a crash against the ceiling and a rebound that made him see stara In coming back the bag struck him fair la the face, and for a minute ho looked around to see the horse which bad kicked him. "I'm on to that little curve!" he mat tered, as he got ready for the next round. "I remember now, the professional toia me the object was to punch and dodge,', the same as if scrapping with a maa. Well, here goea" Mr. Bowser had never studied the elu sive tactics of the punching hag. Mra. Bowser, who was waiting at the head ec the stairs tor a calamity, heard him thump and grunt four or five times and then begin to dance about. About a min ute later there was a crash and she called down: "Have you knocked a side of the house out, Mr. Bowser?" Mr. Bowser hadn't. In his doglng about he had encountered a chair and fallen over It, and had come down so heavily that a referee would have count ed him out. It was a long minute before he got up, and then bis good nature had departed. No punching bag ever made by mortal man could knock him about with impunity. He rose up with a determina tion to collapse that bag wth one awful plow. He had been warned to go easy, but his outraged dignity demanded re venge.

THERE are few things darker than a country road at night, particularly if one does not know the lay of the land. It is not difficult to traverse a known path no matter how dar it is, one is able to find the way by the aid of a mental photo graph taken in the daytime. But supposing you have never been over the road ii the day time, that you know nothing whatever of its topography, where it dips or rises, where It narrows or fork- You find yourself in the same unhappy state of mind as a blind man suddenly thrust into a strange house. One Clack night, along a certain country road, in the heart of New Jersey, in the days when the only good roads were city thorough fares and country highways were routes to Umbo, a carriage went forward cautiously. Faster, faster came a muffled voice from the interior. Sir, 1 dare not drive any faster," replied the coachman. I can't see the horses' heads, sir, let alone the road. I've blown out the lamps, but I can't see the road any better for that." Let the horses have their heads; they'll find the way. It can't be much farther. YonH see lights." By and by, through the trees, he saw a flicker of light. It might or might not be. the destination. He cracked, his whip recklessly and the carriage lurched on two wheels. The man In the carriage balanced himself carefully, so that the bundle in his arms should not be unduly disturbed. His anna ached. He tuck his head out of the window. "That's the place," he said. "And when yon drive up make as little noise aa yon can." "Tea, sir," called down the driver. When the carriage drew np at its journey's end the man inside jumped out and hastened toward the gates. He scrutinized the sign on one of the posts. This was the place: Miss Fahlow'b Private School. The bundle in his arms stirred and he hur ried np the path to the door of the honse. He seized the ancient knocker and struck several times. He then placed the bundle on the steps and ran back to the waiting carriage, into which he stepped. Off with you "That a good word, sir. Maybe we can make your train." "Do you think yon could find this place again?" Ton couldn't get me on this pike again, air. for a thousand not me!" The door slammed and the unknown sank back against the cushions. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the damp perspiration from his forehead. The big burden was off his mind. Whatever happened in the future, they would never be able to ret -him through his heart. So much for the folly of his youth. It was a quarter after 10. Hiss Susan Farlow had just returned to the reception room from her nightly tour of the upper halls to see if all her-charges were in bed, where the rules of the school confined them after" 9 :30. It was at this moment that she heard the tbunderaur knocking at the door. The ski maid felt her heart stop beating for a moment. Who could it be, at this time of night? Then the thought came swiftly that perhaps the parent of some one of he charges was 111 and this was the summons. Stilling her fears, she went resolutely to 'the door and opened it. There was no one in sight. "Who it it?" she called. No one answered. She cupped her hand to her ear. She could hear the clatter of horses dimly. Well she exclaimed rather angrily, too. She was in the act of elosins the door when the light from the hall discovered to her the bundle on the steps. She stooped and touched it. "Good heavens, it's a child!" She picked the bundle up. A srhimper enm-t from it. s tired little whimper of protest. She ran back to the reception room. A found- .-"vPH .4 TfvV try c 57' THE irfTCOLXJCTlON? WEJ2&MAD6-.NOCrrQIN FEAT BATHeJiCtHAGQJNED. ling! And on her doorstep! It was Incred ible. What in the world shonld she do? It would create a scandal and hurt the prestige of the school. Some one had mistaken her select private school for a farmhouse. It was frightful. Then she unwrapped the child. It was about a year old, dimpled and golden haired. A thumb was in its rosebud mouth and iU blue eyes looked up trustfully into her own. Why, you cherub cried the old maid, a strange turmoil in her heart. She caught the child to her breast, and then for the finit time noticed the thick envelope pinned to the child's cloak. She put the baby into a chair and broke open the envelope. "Name this child Florence Gray. I will send annually a liberal sum for her support and reclaim her on her eighteenth birthday. The other half of the inclosed bracelet will identify me. Treat the girl well, for I shall watch over her in secret." Into the fixed routine of her humdrum life had come a mystery, a tantalizing, fascinating mystery. She had read of foundlings left on doorsteps from paper covered novels confis cated from her pupils but that one should be placed upon her own respectable doorstep! Suddenly she smiled down at the child and the child smiled back. And there was nothing more to be done except to bow before the de crees of fate. Like all prfm old maids, her heart was full of unrequited romance, and here was something she might spend its floods upon without let or hindrance. Already she was hoping that the man or woman who had left it might never come back. The child grew. Regularly each year, npoo a certain date, Misa Farlow received a regis tered letter with money. These letters came from all parta of the world always the same sum, always the same line I am watching." Thus seventeen years passed and to Susan Farlow each year seemed shorter than the one before. For she loved the child with all her heart. She had not trained young girls all these years without becoming adept in the art of reading the true signs of breeding. There was no ordinary blood in Florence the fast was emphasized by her exquisite face, her small hands and feet, hr spirit and gentle ness. And now, at any day, some one with a broken bracelet might come for her. As the days went on the heart of Susan Farlow grew heavy. Never mind, aunty," said Florence 1 shall always come back to see you." She meant it, poor child but bow was she to know the terrors which lay yonder, beyond the horizon? The house of Stanley Hargreave, In River dale, was the house of no ordinary rich man. Outside it was simple enough, bnt within yoa learned what kind of a man Hargreave was. There were rare Ispahans and Saruks oa the floors and tapestries on the walls, with here and there a fine painting. The library itself represented a fortune. Money had been laid out lavishly but never wastefully. It was the home of a scholar, -a dreame.. a wide traveler. In the library stood the master of the house. idly fingerinc some papers which hty on the study table. He shrugged at some unpleasant thought, settled his overcoat ab"ut bis shoul ders, took up his hat, and walked from too room, frowning slightly. The butler, who also acted in the capacity of valet, always within call When his master was about, stepped swiftly to the hall Coot and opened it. I may be out late. Jones," said Hargreave. -Yes, sir." Hargreave stared into his face keenly, as if trying to pierce the grave face to learn what was going on behind it. "How long have you been .with me?" Fourteen years, sir." "Some day I shall need you." My life has always been at your disposal.' sir, since that night you rescued it." Well, I haven't the least doubt that when I ask you will give." Without question, sir. It was always so Understood." Hargreave's glance sought the mirror, thsa the smileleas face of his man. He laughed, bnt the sound conveyed no sense of mirth; then he turned and went down the steps slowly, like a man burdened with some thought which was not altogether to his liking. He had. sent an order for his car, but had imme diately countermanded it. He would walk till he grew tired, hail a taxicab, and take a run np and down Broadway. The wonderful illu mination might prove diverting. For eighteen years nearly; and now it was as natural for him to throw a glance over his shoulder when ever he left the house as it was for him to breathe. The average man would have grown careless during all these years-; but Hargreave was not an average man; he was, rather, aa extraordinary individual. It was his life in exchange for eternal vigilance, and he knew and accepted the fact. Half an hour later he got into a taxlcab and directed the man to drive downtown as far as Twenty-third street and back to Columbus circle. The bewildering display of lights, how ever, in nowise served to lift the sense of op pression that had' weighed upon him all day. South of Forty-second street he dismissed the tsxlcau and stared undecidedly at the brilliant sign of a famous restaurant. He was neither hungry nor thirsty but there would be strange faces to study and music It was an odd whim. He had not entered a Broadway restaurant In all these years. He was unknown. He belonged to no dubs. Two months was the longest .time he had ever re mained in New York since the disposal of his old home in Madison avenue and his resigna tion from his clubs. This once, then, he would break the law he had written down for him self. Boldly he entered the restaurant. Some time before Hargreave surrendered to the restless spirit of rebellion, bitterly to re pent for it later, there came into this restau rant a man and a woman. They were both evidently well known, for the head waiter was obsequious and hurried them over to the best table he had left and took the order himself. The man possessed a keen, intelligent face. Yon might have marked him for a' successful lawyer, for .there was an earnestness about his expression which precluded a life of idleness. His age might have been anywnere between 40 and 50. The shoulders were broad and the hands which lay clasped upon the table wen slim bnt muscular. Indeed, everything about him suggested hidden strength and vitality. His companion was small, handsome, and ani mated. Her frequent gestures and mutable eyebrows betrayed her foreign birth. "Her age was a matter of importance to no oaa bnt herself. They were at coffee whan she said There's a young man coming toward us. He Is look ing at you." r The man turned. Instantly his face lighted np with a friendly smile of recognition. Who is It? she asked. A chap worth knowing a reporter just little out of the ordinary. I'm going to Intro-' duce him. You .never can tell. We might need him some day. Ah. Norton, how are yon?-.; v-.;-; Good evening, Mr. Braine." The reporter,'', catching sight of a, pair of dazzling eyes, besi tated. The Princess Perigoff, Norton. You're la no hurry, are you? '"Not now," smiled the reporter. "Ah!" said the princess, interested. It wss the old compliment, said in an unusual way. It pleased her. Suddenly the pupils of Braine'a eyes nar rowed the eye became cold.' Over the smoke of his cigaret he was looking into the waU mirror. A man had passed behind him and sat down at the next table. Still gazing into th mirror, Braine saw Norton wave his hand; saw also the open wonder on the reporter's pleasant face. "Who is your friend, Norton?" Brain asked indifferently, his bead still unturned. Stanley Hargreave. Met him in Hong kong when I was sent over to handle a pan of the revolution. War correspondence stuff. First time I ever ran across him on Broadway at night. We've since had some powwows over some rare books. Queer old cock brave as a lion but as quiet as a mouse." "Bookish, eh? My kind. Bring him over." Underneath the table Braine maneuvered to touch the foot of the princess. "I don't know," said the reporter dubiously. He might say no, and that would embarrass the whole lot of us. He's a bit of a hermit. I'm surprised to see him here." Try," urged the princess. I like to meet mm who are hermits." I haven't the least doubt about that," th reporter laughed. 111 try but don't blame me if I'm rebuffed." S "V
-4 .S I Ifa 9 He left the table with evident reluctance and approached Hargreave. The two shook hands cordially, for the elder man was rather fond of this medley of information known as Jim Norton. Sit down, boy sit down. You're just the kind of a man I've been wanting to talk to tonight." "Wouldn't you rather talk to a pretty woman?" I'm an old man." "Bah! That's a hypocritical bluff, and you know It My friends at the next table have asked me to bring you over." "I do not usually care to meet strangers." "Make an exception this once," said tha reporter, who had seen Braine'a eyes change and was curious to know why the appearance of Hargreave in the mirror had brought about that me tally gleam. Here were two unique men; he desired to see them face to face. "This once. My fault; I ought not to be here I feel out of place. What a life, though, yoc reporters lead To meet kings and presi dents and great financiers, Socialists and an archists, the whole scale of life, and to slap these people on the back as if they were every day friends Now you're making fun of me. For ona king there are always twenty thick brogans ready to kick me down the steps don't forget that" Hargreave laughed. "Come, then; let ns get it over with." The introductions were made. Norton felt rather chagrined.. So far as he could sea, the two men were total strangers. Well, it was all ia the game. Nine out of ten oppo tunities for the big story were fake alarms: but he was always willing to risk the labor these nine entailed for the sake of the tenth- At length Braine glanced at his watch, and the princess nodded. Adieux were said. In side the taxicab Braine leaned back with a deep, audible sigh. "What it Is?" she asked. The luck of the devil's own," he said. "Child of the Steppes, for years I've flows about seas and continents, through valleys and over moan tains for what? For the sight of th face of that man we has Jast i I; 5"-" f i T' left. At first glance X wasn't sure; but the sound of his voice was enough. Olga, the next time you see that reporter, throw your arms around his neck and kiss him. What did I tell you? Without Norton's help I would not have been sure. I'm going to leave you at your apartment." The man of the Black Hundred?" ah whispered. The man who deserted and defied the Black Hundred, who broke his vows, and never paid a kopeck for the privilege the man who had been aprointed for th supreme work and who ran away. In those days we needed men of his .stamp, and to accomplish this end. "There was a woman." she Interrupted, with a touch of bitterness. '"Always the woman. And she. was as clever and handsome as you are.", Thanks. Sometimes "Ah, yes!" Ironically. Sometimes yoa wish you could settle down, marry, and hava a family 'Zoar domesticity would last about a month." She ma.le no retort because she recognised the truth cf thin statement. There's an emerald I know of," he said ruminatively. "If a quite possible that you may be wearing it within a few days." I am mad over them. There ia something in the green stone that fascinates me. I can't resist it" "That's because, aomewbero in the far past, your ancestors were orientals. Here we are. I'll see yon tomorrow. I must harry Good-night." The subject of her thoughts soon arrived at his destination. flight of stairs carried him into a dimly lighted hall, smelling evilly of escaping gas. He donned a black maak and struck the door with a series of light blows; s. Wt V V if 4 r --s -v two, then one, then three, and again one. The door opened and he slipped inside. Round a table sat several men, also masked. They were all tried and trusted rogues; but .not one of them knew what Braine looked like. He alone remained unknown save to the man designated as the chief, who was only Braine'a lieutenant The mask was the insignia of the Black Hundred, an organisation with all the ramifications of the Camorra without their abiding stupidity. IVom the assassination of a king, down to the robbery of a country post office, nothing was too great or too small for their nets. Their god dwells in the hearts oi all men and is called Greed. The ordinary business over, the chief dis missed the men, end he and Braine alone re mained. Troon, I have found htm," said Braine. There are but few which one?" Eighteen years ago, in St Petersburg." "I remember. The millionaire's son. DM he recognise you?" I don't know. Probably he did. But he always had good nerves. He is being followed at this moment We shall strike quick; for if he recognized me he will act quick. He is cool and brave, ion remember how he braved us that night in Russia. Jumped bold ly through the windov.- at- the risk of break ing his neck. He landed safely that is the only reason he eluded us. Millions: and they slipped through our fingers. If I could only find some route to his heart The lure we held out to him is dead." Or in the fortress, which is the same thing. What are your plans?" "I hava in mind something. like this." And Hargreave was working out bis plans, too; and he was just as much of a gejral as Braine. He sat at bis library table, tho maxillary muscles In his jaws working. 8o they bad found him? Well, he had -broken th law of his own making and be must suffer the consequences. Braine. who was Menshl koff in Russia, Schwartz in Germany. Meadosa In Spain.

Sidnapera and nators for hire; the Black Hundred; from Topbett For nearly eighteen years he had eluded them, for he knew that directly or indirectly they would never caass to hunt for him; and aa Idle whim had toppled him into their clutches. He wrote several lettars .feverishly. Th last was addressed to Miss Susan Farlow and read: "Dear Madam: Send Florence Gray to New York, to arrive here Friday morning. My half of the bracelet will be identification. nckmed find cash to square accounts." He would gat together all his available funds, recover hia child, and fly to th ends of the world. He would tire them oat They would find that th peaceful dog waa a bad animal to roose. He rang for th faithful Jones. "Jones, they have 'found as" tea said simply. You will need ms. theatr "Quit oossibl. Please i then well talk It ov Mo doubt sw is watching outside. Be careful.'' Very good, aj." Hargreave bowed his head In his Many times he had journeyed to th school and hong about th gates, straining his eyes toward the merry groups of young girls. Which among them waa his, heart of his heart, blood of hia blood? That ah might never be drawn Into thla abominable tangle, he had resolutely torn her out of his life com pletely. The happiness of watching the child grow Into girlhood h had denied himself. 8a at least would be safe. Only when sh was safe in a far country would he dare tell her. He tried In vain to conjure ad a picture of her: he always skw t' i mother whom ha had loved and hated with all the ardor of hia youth. Many things happened t! next day. There was a visit to ths hangar o on William Orts, the aviator, famous for his daredevil exploit. There were two visit in fact, and th sec ond visitor was knocked dowa for his palna. .He hsd tried to bribe Orts. There were several excited bankers, who protested against such large withdrawals with out the usual formal announcement. But a check was cheek, mad they had to pay. Hargreave covered a good deal of ground, but during aD this 0me his right hand never left th automatic in hia overcoat pocket, except at those moments he wss obliged t- sign bis checks. He would shoot and make inquiries afterward. Far away a young girl and her companion got on the train which was to carry her to New York, the great dream city she was always longing to see. And the spider wove his web. Hargreave reached bom at night He pot the money in the safe and was telephoning when Jones entered and handed hia master an unstamped note. Where did you get this?"

It was known that he had col lected a million paper monev. If be sur rendered this he would (be allowed twenty four hours before th eal chase began. Other wise he should die before midnight Har greave crushed the note in his hand. They might kill him; there was a chance of their sccomplishing tuat; but never should they touch his daughter's fortune. Jones, you go to the rear door and IU take a look out of the front Ws have an hoar. I know the breed. They'll wait till midnight and then fore their way In."

The Japanese wedding to be given by the Intermediate Endeavor Society at the Central Congregational church Tuesday evening, June 30, .has some unique features. In a Japanese wed ding the Nakodo or Go-Between acts as best friend and minister. The bridesmaids, instead of preceding the bride, .as with us, enter after she has taken her seat and prostrate them selves with the most reverential salaams in front of the bride and the parents. The pledge Is made in the faintest whisper by the bridegroom to the go between and she in turn delivers it to the bride in the same mysterious man ner. At the time of drinking, you will notice they look into the cups, after draining the last drop of tea. This is to see the image of the "God of Love," which is in the wedding cup of every happy wedded pair. There are only two presents given to the bride., and these are two lacquer boxes containing Jewels, given by the groom's parents. The -ceremony concludes with the bride and groom drinking from the two-spouted teapot, which act declares to the assembled party that they will henceforth and forevermore live in peace and harmony. The music played during the cere mony will be from "Madam Butterfly," by Puccini and the Japanese wedding march by V. Alette, will be used for the entrance of the bridal party. Preceding the ceremony, Miss Lena Baxter will read a play taken from "Little Sister Snow," by Frances Lit tle; and between each scene Miss Gladys Gaw will play violin selections from "A Tale of Old Japan," by S. Coleridge Taylor. This is a poem writ ten by Alfred Noyes and is the story of a Japanese glrl,-"0 Kimi San."
