BALKAN STATES SOON AFLAME Constantine Accepts Resigna tion of Venizelos Cabinet. More French Troops Are Landed at Saloniki. Petrograd, Oct. 6. Bulgaria has rejected the Russian de mands and has sent an ultima tum to Serbia concerning Mace: donia, according to information which has reached the Serbian Archmandrite Michel, says a Moscow telegram to the Bourse Gazette. Bulgaria demands that Serbia reply to the ultima tum within twenty-four hours. Ferdinand to Strike Quickly. London. Oct. 6. Bulgaria has deliv ered an ultimatum to Servia. it was announced here this afternoon. A 1 European capitals were advised two days ago that Bulgarian mobilization had been completed. i. moH ihut Czar Ferdinand, after mobilizating his army, has de cided to strike immediately aga.nst Serbia without giving Kngland and France time to rush troops from Sa loniki to protect the important ca-loniki-Nish railway. Greek Cabinet Out. London, Oct. 6. King Constantine of Ureece has accepted the resignation of the Venizelos cabinet, according to an official dispatch which reached London today. The position taken by King Con stantine in his interview w.th Premier Venizelos is said by the Athens cor respondent of the Havas agency to have been that he cr.uld rot pursue to the end the policy of Venizelos Cabi net The landing of additional French troops at Saloniki is reported from Athens. The correspondent there of lh Exchange Telegraph company says thtt a number of transport! carrying French troops entered tho port at Saloniki this morning. He adds that the forwarding of French troops for Serbia is proceeding act ively. Franco Ts Stunned. Pp.ris. Oct. 6. In consequence of the resigi.ation of premier Venizelos and the ethtr members of the cabinet the sessi.m of Greek chamber has been adjourned, says a Havas dispatch from Athens. The breach between King Con stantine of Greece and Premier Ven izelos. resulting in the resignation of the prime minister anA the cabinet, was totally unexpected in Paris and lias caused painful surprise. French editorial writers have hard things tc say of the king, whose Ger man connections always have made him the object of some suspicion on the part of these who sought the aid of Greece f ir the allied cause. It is considered here that while he siened the mobilization orde- and con sented to the landing of French troops at Saloniki he does not warn to go to War with Bulgaria, Germany's ally. It is pointed out that Bulgaria wants j Saloniki and Germany covets Asia Minor. The papers assert that Bul garia in siding with Germany "is dig ging the grave of Hellenism.'' It is admitted that the lot of the Anglo-French forces has become harder, but the assertion is made with eiual emphasis that it is not beyond their strength. A Bulgarian attack upon Serbia is expected soon. French transports arrived at Sa loniki Friday night and troops began to land Saturday afternoon, says an Athens dispatch to the Matin. Per fect order was maintained in the city and the inhabitants gave the French soldiers a cordial reception. Reports received in Athens, the Matin corre spondent says, state that 3,000 German and Austrian officers have taken over the principal commands in the Bul garian army. To Defy Constantine.

Chicago. Oct. 6. Wall street buying sent the wheat market today on an extraordinary upward flight. At about r-iidseasorj, the ji'nps in price aver aged more than 5 cents a bushel as compared with yesterday's close. May wheat, which finished last night at tl.00, and which opened today only one-quater to a half higher, went soaring later to $1.06. December climbed to $1.04 as against 99 at the windup the day before. Numerous stop loss orders for shorts were executed on the sudden upturn. Despite heavy selling and a tem porary consequent reaction the mar ket gathered fresh strength, and ran up rapidly in the late dealings. Just before the finish, December touched $1.06 V and May $1.08, an extreme advance of 6 and 7 cents. The close was excited and within of the topmost point reached. Wheat Bounds in K. C. Kansas City, Oct. 6. Primary wheat receipts today amounting to less than half as much as a year ago to day, caused a rush of speculative buy ing on the local market, which ad vanced prices about five cents. De cember delivery sold up to $1.00 7-S at the height of the rush. ARTILLERY STILL ROARS Fierce Exchanges or Heavy Guns Con. tiuue on West Front. Paris. Oct. 6.

The statement says: "The bombardment in whirh both sdes have been taking part has con tinued in the Artois district. It was particularly severe south of the forest of Givenchy. We have made some progress with hand grenades in the connecting trenches southwest of the chateau of La Folie. '"There has Icen reported fron1 .the remainder of the front nothing more than artillery fighting in which boih sides took part, particularly in the Champagne district, between the Meuse and the Moselle; north of Flirey and along the front in Lorraine, in the vicinity of Lein'rey and Doin evre." French Arc Frustrated. Berlin, Oct. S. An attempt by the French to resume the offensive on the Champagne front by heavy artillery fire against the German position was frustrated with heavy losses by the German artillery, it was announced by army headquarters today. Price Trend Shows Further Hurried Reduction of Commitments. Xew York. Oct. 6. Restrictions imposed upon extensive speculation in war specialties by the stock exchange authorities yesterday had a sobering effect at today's opening. There was no marked lessening of activity, but the entire trend of prioe plainly indi cated a further hurried reduction of speculative commitments. initial quotations disclosed a mix ture of losses and gains, but the extent of the decl'ne was greater than the j advance. -Most cf the recent spectac ular features were lacking.

PEACEALONG BOUNDARY Quitting of "Danger Zone" by United States Troops Hailed as Good Sign. Brownsville, Tex., Oct. 6. Complete quiet was reported today from an army patrols which have been wateh- ne for Mexican bandits to cross the Rio Grande on raids near here. The ranger company of Capt. J. J. Sanders, which has been stationed at the Norias ranch since the battle was fought there early in August, left to day, going to Alice. Jim wens county. about 150 miles from the Mexican border. The movement of this com pany was taken as an indication of the degree of security state officials believe has been established in the Bronwsville valley. .During the early day of the outbreak all trouble has been confined to the section which Captain Sanders's rangers evacuated today. Another indication of improved con tions was the fact that the killing of Mexicans suspected to be either ban dits or to have sheltered bandits has practically stopped. The total number of such killings by vigilantes and peace officers was more than 100. BIG DINNER TONIGHT Commercial Club's Twenty Cylinder Spread Will Start at 6:20.

ALFALFUN STATE Nearly a Million and Half Acres Through Kansas. Increase of 11 rer Cent Over

juast tear, is Jiepon. BRING NEARLY 40 MILLION Average Production of Three Tons Per Acre for Year. Jewell County Leads State With 50,196 Butler Second. .Xearly a million and a half acres 1,359,500, to use exact figures were this year used for the growing of al falfa by Kansas farmers. The acre age is an increase of 14 per cent over last year and a gain of practically 50 per cent in five years. According to the official reports be ing prepared by J. C Mohler, secre tary of the state board of agriculture, alfalfa is to rank close to the top of the state's most valuable crops. In the thirty-seven counties comprising the central third of the state, 50 per cent of the state's entire alfalfa crop is grown. The eastern portion pro duces its yield from 584,370 acres, while 100,000 acres are planted to al falfa in the western third of the state. Ninety-five per cent of the increase this year, however, was in the coun ties comprising the eastern third of the state. Only 33.000 Acres In 1891. In 1891 twenty-four years agb there were but 35,000 acres of alfalfa in this state. The 1915 record shows an acreage of 1,359,500, with an in crease 'or one year of 165",8O0 acres, or nearly five times the total acreage of J891. The increase for the twenty four years is something like 4,000 per cent. Recent records show that in 1910. the state's alfalfa acreage was 926,492 acres; 1911, 976.094 acres; 1912, 1,000,785 acres; 1913, 1.026.299 acres; 1914. 1,193,641 acres; 1915, 1,359,500 acres. To produce the big increase in alfalfa acreage this year, some of the counties made tremendous gains. In Kingman counts' the jnoreiise- was 9 per cent; Coffey comity, 8 1 per cent; Franklin, 91 per cent; Linn, 132 per cent; Lyon, 51 per cent; Osage, 87 per cent, and Miami, 149 per cent increase. Jewell Rest County. Jewell is the premier" alfalfa county of the state with a total of 50,196 acres, closely followed by Butler coun ty with an acreage of 50,005. Cowley county ranks third with 43,000 acres. Fifty-three counties this year reported an acreage of more than 9,000. while in 1895 one lone county in Kansas, Finney, could qualify in this list. th Alialla, Mohler states, is now state's third most important crop, Corn and wheat alone surpass the val ue of alfalfa produced in Kansas. In fact during the dry season of 1913, the value of the state's alfalfa crop was greater than the value of the corn crop. Nearly 40 Million. Based on an average production of three tons to the acre for the year, Kansas would this year harvest an al falfa crop worth nearly forty million dollars on the open market. On the basis of acre returns, alfalfa would thus bring to the farmers a greater return than any crop produced in the state. Thirty years ago timothy, tame hay. clover nd blue grass were the state's principle grasses, but did not aggregate one-half as much as the present day alfalfa area. Ten alfalfa counties in Kansas, show the following growth in acreage in the last twenty years; Acre: Jewell S.!0 Butler 7..19S Cowlev 2.508 Sedgwick 3.441 Ly n 4,182 Smith l.:!2 Republic 3,102 Washington 709 Greenwood 4.N0X Dickinson 2,405 Total 39,906 391.097 SLAVS TRICK GERMANS Summary Measures for Russians Who Wear Teutonic Helmets. Berlin. Oct. 6. An official state ment from German army headquar ters yesterday says: "Russian patrols are wearing Ger man helmets in order to deceive Ger man troops. It is evident that such Russians, when they fall into German hands, will be treated in accordance with the laws of war." The foregoing was omitted from yesterday's official statement received from Berlin by way or London, appar ently having been eliminated by the censor. BLIND LAWYER HERE C.

WAR NEWS BOILED DOWN FOR THE RUSHED READER Bulgaria not only has rejected the demands of Russia, but has sent an ultimatum to Serbia con cerning Macedonia, according to unofficial advices from Petrograd. It is declared that a reply from Serbia within twenty-four hours is demanded. German guns broke up yester day a French attempt to resume the offensive on the front of the former attack in the Champagne, Berlin declares. The French of ficial report mentions only artil lery firing in the Champagne dis- trict. On the eastern front the Ger mans report having repulsed de termined Russian attacks in the Dvinsk region. Initial- successes for the Russians are admitted, but the situation afterwards turned in favor of Field Marshal von Hin denburg's troops, it is stated.

NOT PARTY ISSUE Wilson to Vote for Suffrage as Private Citizen. President Says Cause Is Log. ically Up to States. Washington. Oct. 6. President Wil son will vote. for the woman suffrage state constitutional amendment in New Jersey, his home state, at the special election October 19. He said today he would vote, not as the leader of the Democratic party but as a private citizen. Mr. Wilson said he believed the i question should not be made a party i issue and should be decided by the states, not the national government. The following statement was given out at the White House: "I intend to vote for -woman suf frage in New Jersey because I believe that the time has come to extend that privilege and responsibility t the women of the state. But I shall vete not as the leader of my party in the nation, but only upon my private conviction as a citizen of New Jersey, called upon by the legislature of the state to express hii conviction at the polls. I think that New Jersey will be greatly benefited by the change. "My position with regard to the way in which this great question should be handled is well known. I believe that it should be settled by the 3tates and not by the national government, and in no circumstances should it be made a party question, and my view has grown stronger at every turn of the agitation." Secretaries Garrison, McAfloo, Red field and W7ilson, who will also vote on the question in the. near future, have declared in favor of equal suf frage. HEAVY FROST PROBABLE Colder Weather Scheduled for To night: Thursday WU1 lie I 'air. The temperature Tuesday night was higher than Monday morning, but it was low enough to permit a light frost had it not been for a twelve mile wind from the south which blew all night. The lowest temperature was 45 de grees at 6 o'clock this morning. This reading is 6 degrees below normal f- r this date, but no records were broken as the lowest reading on this date was 26 in 1889. The forecast is for partly cloudy weather with lower temperatures and a probable frost tonight. Thursday will be fair, with colder weather in the eastern part of the state. There is a good chance for a frost tonight f the clouds do not intervene. And if it comes it probably will be a heavy one.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOTTRNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING OCTOBER 6, 1915. STATE AUTO BOOK Pamphlet Contains Highway Information for Motorists. Published With the Surplus in Automobile Tax Fund. A pamphlet containing the Kansas automobile, bridge and highway laws has just been compiled by J. T. Bot kin. secretary of state, and is being sent out to motorists and coun.y Jt ficers throughout the state. An annual tax of $5 is levied against every automobile in the state and a tix of $2 against every motorcycle. Sav-enty-five cents of the automobile tax and fifty cents of the motorcycle tax is given Mr. Botkin's department, un der the act for administering the law, the remainder going to the county in which the vehicle is owned, for the upkeep of roads. The state's share of the tax is mors than sufficient to administer the laiv and purchase the necessary tags and equipment, a surplus of $26,604.14 be ing created last year. Mr. Botkm points out that this surplus constitutes a special tax against the owners of motor cars to which the state has no right. Therefore, ho asserts that since the law provides no way of returning the money to the individual motorists it can be returned in the form of val uable booKS and information. The pamphlet, which is being issued now, tells of bridge construction and repair, construction, relocation ana maintenance of roads, the improve ment of public highways, the duties ot tho highway engineers, the county cornmiHai-neis and the various town ship officers, under the laws of Kansas. Mr. Botkin pointed out that while only about 60.000 licenses were issued last vear it is reasonable to suppose that 'ihe number of machines in he vtate this year will be about 75,000 and that the surplus created will be in creased twenty per cent. Some time ago Mr. Botkin -announced a plan whereby the tate could issue u road map and motori guide book and pay for it from lh:s Mirplus fund.

HIGH SCHOOL GAIN From One-Fifth to One-Third More Pupils Tills Year. Kansan high schools will have from one-fifth to one-third more pupils this vear than last year, according to re ports of O. B. Seyster and C. C. Brown, state high school uvejrviBore. The supervisors point out that of tne 635 high schools in Kansas. 365 have a fully accredited four-year course, the number having increased from 112 in the last ten years. It is assert ed also that the increase this year probably will be the largest in the history of the state. Of the 105 counties in Kansas, they reported, 40 are operating schools un der the Barnes law, 27 under the county high school law and the re mainder under city, township and rural laws. The Barnes law provides that a tax shall be levied to be pro rated among the high schools meeting the standards set by the supervisors, according to the cost of maintaining the schools, while under the county law the whole tax levy goes to the county high school. It was pointed out that in some of the western Kansas counties the peo ple, because of "the sparse population, have been taxed the limit allowed un der the school law and have met the deficit in the amount necessary for school purposes by public subscription. All but two of the counties in Kan sas, they reported, have accredited high schools. These counties Has kell and Stanton both have high schools, which, however, are only par tially accredited. Norton county is the only county in the state, it is said, which has no county high school or an accredited high school.

KANSAS BABY WEEK -(Continued f ran .Page Onejj tance of play in the life of the young- btTonight, in addition to the regular features of the show, a tuberculosis film wil' be shown. Another film dedicated to Sanitary Sergeant Ram sey on the development of the fly will be show). Dr C B. Van Horn, of Topeka. con tributed a gem of advice to the big meeting this afternoon. His speech, short but well delivered and prepared, contained a beautiful tribute to the mother, offered awakening sugges tions, and solicited most complimen tary attention from the listeners. Dr. Van Horn is a believer in the limited and controlled method of cor poral punishment of children. He be lieves that the paddle, conscientiously and properly applied, Eolves many hosehold juvenile problems. He. did not discriminate between the mother and father in the application of the yard stick. "You must start while the child is young," he said. "Let the punishment have its effect before the boy or girl is old enough to offer resentment. Waiting too long only creates an upheavel in dis cipline." Dr. Van Horn placed great stress on the early home training. The life of the boy and girl after leaving the home or after reaching a more ma ture age depends greatly on the child hood days and the environment as created by the mother and father, he declared. He traced diseases many of them directly to the loose control of children in the home. Training and' Health. "Child training in the home has as great an effect upon preserving health as upon instilling into the child proper morals and thrift," Dr. C. B. Van Horn said. "Children are very largely a reflection of their parents and people can usually be judged by the habits of the child. If a child is given the proper training in the home it learns how to take care of itself. One of the great benefactions of military training is that soldiers are taught how to take care of them selves, now to preserve their own health and how to avoid disease. Par ents ehold carry the same theme of training into their families. Proper training also affects the habits of the child in regard to caring for its own ody, controlling its own activities of morality, and it starts the child in life with the proper digestive function. The control of the bodily function Is very largely merely a matter of train ing and this cannot be developed In the child at too early a period. Aside from this training a child properly trained is robust and has normal vigor. Horn Healthy Normally. "Normal children of normal par ents are born healthy, and unless the parents are particularly careful to train the child, outside influences of other associates may affect the child to lose its health. There are various diseases which young children are apt to develop which can be prevented by a simple rule, the act of proper ma ternal training. Some of these condi tions are nervous diseases, chorea and hysteria, and other diseases range from digestive disturbances on down to flatfoot and other physicial de fects. If, however, a child is abnor mally developed the parents must not suppose that through their own ideas of training the child, can later De ae veloped normally. "There is a vast difference in the effect on children by their training and punishment. Any cause for which children are usually punished should be carefully investigated before any punishing is done, as these defects are usually beyond the mentality of the child and should be corrected by train ing and through medical care. Dr. Lindsay's Address. The principal cause of nervous die eases in children is heredity, accord ing to Dr. W. S. Lindsay, who spoke on "Nervous Diseases in cniidren, at the Kansas Baby show this afternoon However, children, having less oppor tunity for acquiring nervous troubles than adults, naturally suffer less from them, contends Dr. Lindsay. The To pekan placed the fault of children's troubles of this sort squarely upon the shoulders of the parents. "On analyzing the status of a child. consider its neurotic heredity and realize that nervous troubles more readily follow simple ailments in chil dren having nervous ancestry. The most common of these ailments is in testinal irritation: from thia children THE Piano- Not After r.P.WRTTMOIB MANAGE are liable to ailments of the skin of nervous character, night horrors and even convulsions. "Another class of children's ail ments la of more central origin and manifests itself In weakness of the muscles, squits, and other local spas modic troubles. Hysteria develops in children at a surprisingly young age. A severe fright excites an attack of chorea. Children of highly organized nervous systems are likely to develop serious brain trouble following whoop ing. cough. "Outside of the densely populated districts, meningitis. and infantile paralysis are the more common. Com bination of infection and sensory trouble is seen in enuresis. "One important thing to guard against in nervous children is over care; too tender rearing develops help less weaklings, unfit' to meet the com petition of life. Wise care, along with etruscan discipline, is the ideal man agement of nervous children." Many There Last Night. Tuesday evening's program was well attended and the audience betrayed the fact that they were there to learn something by their eager attitude. Sure "papa" was ihere. Why not? Officials of the show ar not a little pleased at the interest being taken In the show by "papa." The address of welcome was deliv ered by Mayor J. E. House. W. D. Ross gave an address on the impor tance of mote juvenile education, while community music for children was discussed by Prof. Arthur 'Nevin of Kansas university.

"Conditions in the west are fine." asserted Reynolds. "The sentiment for Republicanism is being crystalized and there is not the least doubt about the desire for a Republican national administration." It is not Reynolds's mission to dis cuss personalities. He does not talk about the possible candidates or their relative strength or weakness. The sentiment of the people is for a Republican president the candidate who can poll the most votes and who can win," Reynolds said. "There is no doubt about the support of such a candidate nor his success." Republicans Already Together. "Will the Republicans get together nationally in the next campaign?" was asked of the national committee secre tary. Reynolds laughed. "It isn't necessary to get together. They are already together," was the reply. "Do you expect Roosevelt and Mar- dock and Johnston to return to the Republican party?" was asked. Yes, indeed, said Reynolds. Why. there isn't any place else to go. They must come home. Roosevelt hates Wilson so intensely that he will do anything to beat him. There isn't but one way to beat him. That is through the success of the Reublican party." nhen the interviewer asked if the colonel might go so far as to support Taft. "He would doubtless be the one can didate who would cause Roosevelt to balk," admitted Reynolds.- "But I sin cerely believe Roosevelt and the other Progressives will be supporting the national ticket in 1916." After Congress, Too. The election of a president is not the onlyhing in which Reynolds and the national committee feels deep concern. They want a Republican senate and a Republican house. -Support of the state will go to the candidate who seems able to poll the most votes,'-' Reynolds explained. "That is why there is little talk of candidates just now. The solution will be worked out by the national conven tion. Election of a Republican presi- aent, in my judgment, means the re gaining of the United States senate and house. We need nine senators to control the senate. Next year 32 sen ators will be elected and I believe we will win back both branches of con gress." Arrived at Noon. Reynolds arrived in ToDeka shortlv after noon today. He was met at the Rock Island depot by D. W. Mulvane of Topeka, former Republican nation al committeeman; and Charles F. Scctt of tola, former congressman from the Second Kansas district. Fred E. Stanley of Wichita, will doubtless come to Topeka tonisrht to attend the conference with Reynolds. it is Reynolds' plan to remain in Topeka until Friday night. He will then go to Oklahoma City for a con ference with Oklahoma Republican leaders. He came to Topeka from Kansas City and has spent several weeks in western states. This afternoon Reynolds visited a number of state departments. Tonight he will be the guest at a luncheon to be attended by Mulvane, Scctt, Sena tor Charles Curtis, Governor Capper and a number of state officials and political leaders.

STOCKS Liquidation on a scale even larger than the recent buying movement swept over today's market, specialties making maximum de clines of 5 to over 15 points. The note of caution sounded by officials of the ex change was the foremost factor. The rise in the railways stiffened prices uutil another avalanche of selling overtook the market, wiping out a considerable part of the gain in railways and forcing some specialties below yesterday'a lowest figures. Liquidation converged around the better known war shares, particularly Crucible Steel, Baldwin Locomotive and Westiug- honse. Crucible crumbled rapidly, losing over 10 points from its opening price of 96. Re cessions in similar shares ranged from 2 to 5 points, but Bethlehem Steel stood out with its new high record of 401. Moderate Improvement followed this decline, with a slackenlug of operations. Bonds were irregular.

Carrigan, Cady, Killifer and Burns All Good Backstops. New York, Oct. 6. Offensively and defensively there appears to be little advantage for either the Boston Amer icans or the Philadelphia Nationals, in the catching departments, in the coming World's series. Both the Red Sox and the Phillies have a trio of backstops who are far above the or dinary in ability in this particular feature of the game. The American league champions in Manager Carrigan, Cady and Thomas have three experienced catchers who are thoroughly at home behind the plate and familiar with every detail of the position. Killifer is the veteran of the Phillies catching force but Burns has shown, during the past sea son, that he is not far behind his chief irr -all-round ability while Adams he third string catcher is a youngster who, in his few try-outs, has given promise of measuring up to the stan dards set by his two superiors in the near future. Sox Have Vets. While experience counts for much in the work behind the plate, it is not always the veterans who shine in the' big baseball series. If this was the case the Americans would have a wide margin of reserve strength since Carrigan and Cady both figured prom inently in the famous eight-game struggle between the Giants and the Red Sox in 1912, whereas none of the Phillies" catchers has figured in a fight for the premier pennant of the diamond game. So far as the figures for the sea Bon's work can be used for a basis of comparison, however, there is noth ing to indicate that much difference of ability exists in the actual work of the players under consideration. Killifer has caught a majority of the games played by the Phillies this year with Burns filling in as emergency and re lief catcher. The former has a field ing average of .973 and batted .247 while Burns has batted one point above Killifer's average and fielded four points below. Adam's record fails to show participation in play for the pennant. Cady and Thomas. For Boston Cady and Thomas have done the major part of the backstop ping although Manager Carrigan has, handled the delivery of the left hand ers, from time to time. Cady is the best of the trio if judgment can be based on the season's unofficial aver ages. In something over seventy games he has batted .277 and fielded .976. Thomas, in about an equal num ber of games has fielded .971 and bat ted .2 39. Carrigan has received credit for playing in a little more than half the number of games that Cady and Thomas have officiated in and his av erages are: Fielding .976: hattins; .207.

Haynes has won the everlasting good wishes of newspaper reporters by announcing that he will erect a press box on Wash burn field and equip it with communi cation instruments before the next home game. Washburn has never had a press box and heretofore in order to get the news of games to the outside world it has been necessary to run two blocks to a frat house or go through the "bushes" to the girls' dormitory to get to a telephone.

By J Trade Mark Reg. C S. Pat. Off.) PHILS CONFIDENT Captain Luderus Says His Team Will Defeat Bo'ston. Alexander and Chalmers Are the Best Pitching Bets. Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 6. With but two days remaining until the opening contest for baseball supremacy of the world, the National league champion Phillies hoped to complete their regu lar playing schedule in a doubleheader with Brooklyn today and net about for the final preparations for the struggle with the Boston Americans. There was a feeling of confidence in the Phillies' camp as to the result of the world's series. Captain Lu derus declared he felt sure his team would come out victorious, although he admitted it would be a close race. Alexander and Chalmers were almost certain to win their games, he be lieved, while Mayer and Rixev would have an excellent chance to humble the Bostonians. Philly stock also has gone up in the estimation or the betting fraternity. While the few bets that were placed several day3 ago were laid at odds of 13 to 10, with the Red Sox the favor ites, several wagers were placed last night at even lower. In an effort to give as many fans as possible an op portunity to see the games the Phil adelphia club found it i.ecessary to greatly curtail the allotment of tick ets for the newspapers and public of ficials, who in former years had re ceived tickets in large blocks. Notwithstanding the management of the club has taken every precaution to guard against tickets falling into the hands of speculators ceveral agen cies were taking order3. Boston Fears Alexander. New York, Oct. 6. A workout on Friday morning preceding the first gam of the world's baseball cham pionship will be the only opportunity the Boston Americans will have for practice on the field of the Philadel phia Nationls. Owing to the postpone ment of Tuesday's game between the New York and Boston American league clubs it will be necessary for the Red Sox and the Yankees to play two games here today and one tomor row in order to complete their sched ule. This means that the Red Sox will not have a day's rest before the beginning of the world's series. Mana ger Carrigan, of the Boston club, has made no protest. Carrigan today had not disclosed the name of the pitcher who will op pose Philadelphia in the opening game and there was a great deal of specu lation on that point. "I realize we must face Grover Cleveland Alexander in the opening game Friday," said Carrigan, "and I also know just how wonderfully clever is the curve ball genius of the National league. It seems we must beat Alex ander in that first game and we have devised a means which we think will do it. Should we beat Alexander in the opening game the rest will be a lot easier than I have figured. If we fail it will give us a line on Alexander which will make his second game not so hard to win. Outside of Alexander do not think any of the Philly pitchers compare with my men." BOSTON'S RED SOX HOPEFULS. turn at bat. Lett to right: Shore, IMPORTANTGAMES Dopesters Center Their Atten tions on-K. U.-Lincoln Games. Bear Stories From Manhattan ;ot Taken Serionsly. Saturday's games in the Missouri valley will give the dopesters their first chance to get a line on the class of football that is to follow in the big games of the season later. Two con tests Aggies and Nebraska and Em poria Normals and K. U. will fur nish enough material for conversation among the "bugs" for two weeks at least. These games will give a line on three Missouri valley teams that look to be good for one-two-three in the valley this year. If the Jayhawkers are able to get by the Normals thei chances will be fifty per cent brighter. Last year Coach Hargiss's team played Kennedy's Haskell Indians a 7 to 0 game and the Emporia team is much the same this year if not better. There is much talk that the Normals have an outside chance to win. With such a situation the playing of Olcott's team will be watched with keen inter est. If the Kansans show some real class Saturday they will be looked upon as strong contenders in the championship race. The Aggie-Cornhusker game prob ably will attract mors- Interest in tfea Missouri valley than any other con test of the week. Coach Bender has generated more "pep" at the Agricul tural school -this year than has been seen there in the last four years, and this feeling has a great deal to do with the showing of the football team. Everybody is pulling for the team and all the time Bender is sending out that deceiving "bear" stuff that is one of the surest indications that he has something. The Aggies" showing against the Cornhuskers will be a means of rating the strength of both teams. Last year Stichms's men ran away with the K. S. A. C. game, 31 to 0. And the Cornhuskers had a great team. What can be done this year? That question is paramount in foot ball circles this week. BROWNS DEFEATED CARDINALS. First Game of St. Louis City Series Played Tuesday Afternoon. St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 6. The St. Louis Americans defeated the St. Louis Na tionals in the opening game of the fall series Tuesday, 3 to 2. In the third Pratt scored for the Americans on Walker's single.

Alaya, Hendricksen, Uobiitz' LOOK FOR CHANGES Shake Up in Washburn Line Is Predicted for Saturday. Practice Tuesday Afternoon Lasted Well Into the Night, The Washburn team will leave on the Santa Fe at 7:30 Saturday morn ing for Baldwin, where the second game of the season will be played with Baker university Saturday afternoon. The team will return to Topeka Sat urday night, if possible. Tuesday afternoon Coaches Gray and Rogers kept the men pounding away at practice until daikness began to set in. When the squads first went out Gray took the backfield and ends and gave them instructions in playing their positions properly and in work ing and breaking up the forward pass, while Dean Rogers kept the remain der of the squad busy at the tackling machine. Later in the afternoon the scrim mage became so stift that several men were temporarily laid out. No one seems to know what the line-up will be Saturday, but it is generally con ceded that there will be changes from last week's roster. And the students and sideline spectators are predicting that Baker will have to play a mighty ripe brand of ball to win. Gray Encouraged. "Things are looking a little better," Gray said Tuesday afternoon, ""but there is lots of room for improvement yet." Newell, who has been playing end, has a sore leg and Heller worked in his position Tuesday. Several shifts were made in the line. Neither Elmer Bearg nor Earl Tribert will be in the game Saturday, as many of the team's supporters had hoped. Bearg has a slight injury on his left arm that will keep him out and Trobert has been too busy to practice. It is understood that the Washburn Review, the college paper, will have a rousing football article this week. Tile article, according to a rumor that is afloat on the campus, will show up the You Pay 5c and you Save when you buy TTm They do sell for a nickel they should sell for a dime.

Villipigne Better. Gene Villipigue, who was hurt last week, announces that he will ba in uniform next Monday and hopes to be able to play against Nebraska Satur day week. Saturday afternoon Elmer Beargs freshman team will play the Santa Fe G. O. team on Washburn field. Bearg's freshmen made a remarkable showing against the varsity in their practice game the first of last week, but it is stated that not enough men are com ing out regularly to insure a good team throughout the season. Athletic Director Hepworth of the high school was on the sidelines at practice Tuesdav afternoon. Mr. Hep worth stated that no arrangements have been made for a freshman-high school game, and he is not sure there will be one this year. O. OF E. TO PLAY OTTAWA. Bear Dope From Emporia Says Team Is in Poor Condition. Emporia, Kan., Oct. 6. The College of Emporia team is in poor condition for the Ottawa game here Friday, due to injuries to several of the star play ers. Halfback Smalley is out with a broken shoulder and Smith and Cur ry, linemen, are in bad condition. Coach Brueckner is not optimistic but has made changes in the lineup which will strengthen the team. Alt man was moved to half and Davis, a freshman, will play quarter. Wle dower will play center in place of Cury, who is out of the game. The college will depend on the forward pass to defeat Ottawa, according to the coach. CHICAGO SERIES STARTS. The Cubs and Sox Begin Their An nual Arguments This Afatemoon. Chicago, 111., Oct. 6. Scott was the pitching selection of the Chicago Americans to oppose the Chicago Na tions in the first game of the series today for the city baseball champion ship.

American Newspaper Publishers orl art nn The forward jjass and the open (tame in the football arena seem to have robbed the big colleges of their invincibility on the gridiron in games with the little acolleges. Yale was beaten by "Virginia on Saturday, the Navy was defeated by Georgetown, the Army was tied by Holy Cross, and the University of Pennsylvania, Harvard and Princeton won their games by narrow margins. Tommy Atkins may be doing the bulk of the fighting for old John Bull but the casuality lists show that the British officers are doing more than proportionately their share of the dy ing for their country.' Most of the experts in the premises and countless other red-blooded Americans who have not seen fit to designate themselves as such are pick ing the winner of the world's cham pionship baseball series, but none of the baseball prophets is so careless of his reputation or judgment as to at tempt to pick the individual members of the teams who will shine refulgent as the stars of the series. They used to give thanks to God for victories, observes the Chicago Herald, but now they frankly say it is all due to a superior supply of muni tions. Ten-cent baseball is creating con siderable discussion, notes the Chicago News, but, it adds, m.ch of the base ball afforded this year was not worth a jitney. The Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul railway's crack train, the Olympic, must be patronized exclusively by bil lionaires. At any rate, the two bandits who frisked the passengers on the ob servation car of this train the other night are reported to have made a haul of $250,000 in cash. And the rule !s with travelers nowadays to carry only a little loose change in their pockets. That sustained spell of comfortably warm weather, which almost every body in Kansas has an idea is due, gets a kick in the slats with great regularity from a chilly north wind be fore it is given much of a chance to get well under way. Investigations of conditions in the Philippines would tend to indicate that the Democratic statesmen don't have any more success in the manage ment of colonial possessions than they do in making the financial ends of the nation meet at home. Galveston is in a position to extend all kinds of sympathy to the recently storm-ravaged sections of Louisiana and Mississippi, and it also may be pardoned for calling attention to the fact that it is not the only point on the Gulf coast that is side-swiped severely by the gulf storms. Attention is called by Detroit Free Press to the fact that this is the sea eon of the year when the pneumonia germ hears the call of the colors. Reports that the German prisoners cf war in Siberia are suffering have a reasonable ring to them. That's been the portion of all of the political pris oners that Russia has consigned to that region. And it is scarcely to be expected that Russia would treat Ger man prisoners any better than she does her own. TRUSTFUL HUMANITY. Taken actuely ill in the midst of a long journey, we accept the ministra tions of a fellow traveler whom we have never seen before but who says that he is a physician, writes a con tributor to the October Atlantic. Even the prescription given us by .our fam ily doctor is liable to be filled by an unknown compounding clerk, yet we swallow unquestioningly whatever he hands us in bottle or box.

THE HONORABLE' SANTA FE. Another big thing that's been done by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa -Fe Railway company, and one of the largest and squarest things that any corporation ever did, is its confession of moral responsibility for the explo sion of the gasoline tank car that wrecked a considerable portion of Ardmore, and caused the death of 47 of its citzens. The Santa Fe announces that it will pay all damages that re suited from this accident as soon as they are properly appraised, and witn- out their adjudication by the courts. The door was open for the Santa Fe to contest the matter of responsibility for this disaster by fighting the damage suits against the company that were certain to grow out of It. And the Santa Fe could have tied up the set tlement of such damages, did the courts find its liable, for many months and perhaps a year or two, and inci dentally dissipate a good share of them in lawyers' fees. Were all cor porations as honorable and given to square-dealing as is the Santa Fe, the corporate problem in this country would be far easier of solution. In deed, it would solve itself. ATTENTION, RECEIVERS! Under the caption, "He May Have Started Something,' the Chicago Herald, in its issue of October 3, lays editorial emphasis in an illuminating; fashion on the point that was made in these columns some days ago relative to the resignation of Mr. Mudge, as one of the receivers of the Rock IS' land system. The Herald's editorial reads: The prominent railway offi cial who resigned as co-receiver with the assertion that he couldn't earn his $3,000 monthly fee has been persuad ed that he Is needed to "operate the road." Doubtless he is; the Rock Is land certainly needs to be "operated" under influences distinctly other than those, of the promoter "pyramiding' securities for ttock market consump tion. However, the unconventional effort of Henry U. Mudge to avoid taking money he felt he wasn't earn ing ssems likely to stir a little more thought about the philosophy of the receivership. Some persons who have put real money into unfortunate ven tures have wondered at times what re ceivers really do for all the fees they take. They can hardly be personally blamed for taking them; it is human nature for any man to regard his ser vices as "worth" all he can get for them. But are receivers always or often worth as much as they cost? The law allows it, and the court de crees it. That is the conventional answer. Ytt some rebellious minds still Inquire why a receivership is al ways regarded as such a desirable ap pointment? The tabk of cleaning up financial wreck would seem hard. Ye receiverships never go a-begging. They are posts of honor; also of profit; -they are usually referred to as fat jobs." Mr. Mudge's effort may have opened some crevices in the walls through which may come the ight of a day in the sweet by-and-by iVhen receiverships will be less polite ly profitable to receivers and of more tangible benefit and less cost to in vestors. The Evening Story A Business Deal. By Louise Oliver.) Richard Adrian was a rich bachelor. That was why he was on the list of every concern in America that had omething to sell. His daily mail was hook full of advertisements of all kinds, from pastry flour to gold mines. And he was hourly besieged by agents of both sexes who insisted upon snowing him only editions and improved razors. Mike, the office boy, had been su perseded by a grown man, who was better able by muscular prowess to dissuade too persistent males from seeing the boss. But Jerry, being an Irishman and a gentleman at heart, had a weakness for a pretty face, and many a wily young woman got past him into the coveted presence. Mike was reinstated, for Mr. Adrian was better able to cope with cheeky men that with appealing maidens, and Mike had a way f shooing off the girls. Dorothy Darlington was prepared for Mike. She had heard of him, and, arming herself for the ball game, Mike went down an easy victim. Richard Adrian had decided that it was near enough to noon to escape from involuntary incarceration, as he always referred to his office, and was brushing his immaculate coat sleeves when Dorothy breezed in and shut the door. "How do you do? Please don't blame your boy for letting me in.- He couldn't help it. I'm sprry if you were getting ready to go home, be cause I can't afford many ball-game ticket, you know." "I'm sorry I can't ask you to it down. You see 1 must get away im mediately." This was the prettiest one yet, and he had no desire to sub scribe for any more encyclopedias or lecture courses, and was even less anxious to have to exercise his mas culine wits against beaut in need. "Oh, I am so sorry. I wanted t J sell you some life insurance." '"Great Scott! I've got twenty-five thousand that I don't need. Besides, I'm not married and haven't any wife to leave it to." "But couldn't you get married?" Richard regarded her an instant quietly. An amused gleam leaped Into his eyes. "Yes, I suppose T could if it would accommodate you," he said. "Well, it would. That is If you would only take another five thou sand. The whole family needs thansrs from "Yes. yes! suppose so. Well, sit down. Miss Darlington. I'll take five thousand of your insurance, but we'll say in favor of my sister, to be transferred just as soon as can find a suitable wife." "How lovely!" exclaimed Dorothy, searching for papers in her bag. I think I am going to like the "nsurance business." Two months later Dor-thy had to get past Mike again. Never mini how she managed it, but she did. This time she was asked to sit down. "But, really, I cannot take any more insurance. Miss Darlington. I've made all my second cousins beneficiaries now." "But it isn't insurance this time." she declared. "It's a house. I'm selling real estate now. Nobody but you would take any Insurance!" "But I don't want a house, either. I'm not married, you see, and "Oh, haven't you got a wife yet? You said you would, so I supposed you had. And this is the dearest house! I'm just crazy about it my self. All porches and gables and a sun parlor and a lawn and a garden, with a littl v creek running through it, and big shade trees, ind it's painted white. Just the kind that naturally comes to you when you close your eyes and try to imagine the nicest house in the world! But I have a picture of it here. There! Isn't it beautiful? Only the colors don't show up the flowers and grass and trees, I mean." Richard looked harder at the flushed cheeks and shining eyes than he did at the picture, but it really was an attractive house. It was a fine day, and his car was at the curb. "I won't promise to buy the place, but I might take a look at it. Miss Darlington. I might put a friend in the way of a good thing if I knew all about it. you see," he said. Thank you so much, said Doro thy gratefully. "I'll give you the ad dress. But it is too bad you're not married! It takes a woman to appre ciate that house." "Won't you go. with me in my car and show it to me?" "Gladly." The house was all that Dorothy claimed, and Richard Adrian enjoyed the excursion immensely. "Not a bad speculation,", he thought. "I believe I 11 take it over. So the deal was made and things settled down as before. Some weeks later Mike opened the office door. "A lady to see you, sir. he announced. v l am so glad to find you in, ex claimed Dorothy Darlington, as Rich ard Adrian hospitably held out his hand and proffered a chair." 'And I am glad you came. Miss Darlington. There is only one thing I am sorry for that I cannot buy an other house. You see I am property poor now, and But I m not selling houses this time. I m in the jewelry business now. I've brought a catalogue and thought .you might want something for your wife, if you have one yet?" 'No, I m not married yet. 'O! Aren't you? I was sure you would be by this time. And there are such beautiful things here in the book pendants, brooches, bracleets and rings. I'm crazy about all of them myself." Richard looked at her oddly. Your enthusiasm is certainly contagious," he said. "Won't you tell me what you like best?" She bent over and touched the open pages here and there where jeweled ornaments were pictured. "And what ring do you like best? "This one!" She turned" a few pages and pointed to a ruby and diamond set together. "I have a few of the originals with me and may have that one. The pigeon blood ruby is ex quisite." She found the ring and handed it to him. Richard looked at her softly wav ing hair under the becoming little hat, her clear, velvety skin, and her frank blue eyes. He had been dreaming dreams of late. "Miss" Darlington, you've insured my life and sold me a house for a prospec tive bride, who hasn't materialized. Now you want to sell me a ring for the same mythological person. Unless you can supply the wife, too, I'm afraid there is no use in buying the ring." "The wife? I don't understand." "Won't you be my wife, Dorothy? love you. You'd better say 'Yes' if you want to sell me the ring. Won't ou?" She did not speak, but he read his answer in her happy eyes. (Copy right, 1915, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.) SANTA FE.

September 26, published a false and misleading article about the Y. W. C. A. of Topeka that has naturally caused much grief and concern to the members and friends of that organi zation in this city. The story therein has been widely circulated fn different cities of the United States, the article being re peated or copied. Papers containing this unjust arti cle are now being received in Topeka from Atlanta, Ga., Chicago, Philadel phia and other cities. The article concerned particularly the new girls' welfare work, under the charge of Miss Armstrong, the new social sec retary. The article in question was even republished at Miss Armstrong's home, Kane. Pa. It reflected upon the estimable and worthy young woman whose work in Topeka had Just been begun a few weeks ago and whose service has been recognized in the east as most excellent. This particular mention of this is made at this time ty the State Jour nal partly because it his been report ed to us that some Topeka people un derstood the i false article appeared in the State Journal. Of course, it did not appear in this paper, but the re traction and correction in the morn ing pap.r was so written as to mis lead some people to think that the article had been printed in the even ing paper :nstead 'of in the morning paper. So unfair and misleading was the article in question that the Topeka Capital last Sunday published a de tailed and comprehensive correction, avoiding, however, the statement that the articles were the Capital's own and that the criticism in the correc tion was criticism, not of some other paper, but of the Capital itself. Here is what the latter paper said in its issue of last Sunday morning: "One recently published article speaks of the cosy little room known as the members parlor as 'Cupid's Parlor' and goes on to say that it hits been banished from the building, leaving the girls no suitable place to see gentlemen caiiers. This is a mistake. The room is at the dis posal of the girls at any time, as is also the louDY and tne large parlor. "Another misleading article asserts that no ice water can be taken to their rooms by the girls. There is always ice water in a tank In the dining room and any girl who wishes may carry a pitcher to her room. 'College pennants and pictures are banished from the walls! This little bit of news is not correct aa at the present time one room is decorated with nine pen nants and another with sixteen pennants and pictures. The girls were asked to use plus and not tucks in putting up tne pen nnnta on the newlv tinted walls. "The. building is open to the public from 7:00 a. m. to 10:30 p. in., and for this rea son the girls boarding in the house were asked not to appear on the first floor in breakfast caps and morning dresses. The third floor has no such restrictions. "Every properly conducted institution must have rules and regulations and the Young Women's Christian Association is not exempt; but as these rules have been made with the greatest care and considera tion for the girls the association is trying to aid, it is unjust for any article to find its way into print which gives a fnlse impression of the Young Women's Christian Association and its work in Topeka." TROUBLE FOR CORN Frost and Cold Weather Hold Back Maturing Crop. The last issue of the crop bulletin for the corn belt was given out by the local station of the weather bureau to day for the week ending Tuesday, Oc tober 5. According to the report, con ditions are unfavorable for the ma turing of corn, and the work of plant ing wheat is progressing slowly. Following is the last regular weekly bulletin for the season of 1915: In much of the central and north ern portions of the corn belt late corn is maturing slowly on account of the cool, damp weather, and considerable damage resulted from frost at the close of the week. Much late corn is being put in silos. In the southern corn states the crop is safe and to the northward the early planted is generally matured and cut ting is progressing rapidly. In portions of the spring wheat beit considerable threshing is not yet fin ished and the work has been further delayed on account of the damp weather. "GODDESS" CAN GO Police Believe Woman an Advertise ment for Local Theater.

Have you seen that dreadful creature that has come to live in the back of the garden?" he atked with great concern. "Dreadful creature?" said Tommy running to the door in surpr.se. What creature?" "That ant eater who is back there in the garden," and Mr. Garden Toad shook his head towards the alley side of the garden. "Ant eater! exclaimed Tommv stupidly. "Will he eat all my nice ant friends?" "I surely hope not," said the toad kindly. "For I know how you enioy the company of that nice worker ant. But he surely has come to live here and he told me (perhaps he was only bragging!) that he was an ant eater and that he would eat all the ants in this garden!" "Well," said Tommy wisely (and this only shows how much of patience and wisdom and bravery Tommy had learned during the summer in the garden), "I guess we had better wait till we see him. Then if he seems ant-eating perhaps I can warn my friends to get away!" "That's a fine idea." said the toad. "And then But what the toad intended to say was never said for at the very minute the new ant eater crawled up towards the place where Tommy and the toad sat talking! "Have you seen any good ants?" he asked just that was as though it was the most natural question in the world! "Good ants?" asked Tommy polite ly. "What do you want with good ants?" "I want to eat them," replied the stranger. "Don't you know that I am the champion ant eater of the garSen? I am looking for some to eat right now." Before Tommy or the toad had a chance to answer (which was a good thing, as they couldn't for the life of them think of a thing to say!) the worker ant ran down the side of the log: toward Tommy's door. Oh, dear. STOCK BAN IS DEFENDED California State Veterinarian Seeks to Justify Sweeping Embargo. Sacramento, Oct. 6. Dr. Charles Kean. state veterinarian of California, made public today a statement defend ing his order barring all cattle from states east of of the Mississippi river and five western states. Dr. Kean s statement is in the nature of a reply to criticism made recently at Kansas City during a conference of live stock owners and cattlemen, in which Cal ifornia officials were charged with re fusing transportation of cattle from districts where foot and mouth disease was known to exist, for exhibition pur poses in this state. The statement Ea"We cannot handle the foot and mouth disease here as they do in the eastern states. With out large cattle ranges and mountainous country it would be an utter Impossibility to cope with the disease should it get ahead here. Illinois at this time is a hotbed for the disease and as it spreads m different ways I do not feel that we can take the risk." ARGUE FOR FARE BOOST Railroad Men Open Battle for Millions In Revenue.

After the fifth of the month the rains were general almost every day in the eastern half of the state and the monthly amounts were generally above normal except in some extreme western and north central counties. Many counties in the western part of Kansas has received less than one inch while in the eastern part totals of 13, 11 and 10 inches were not uncommon, and in Allen county, scene of the re cent floods, the precipitation in the southern part of the county was 17.93 inches,. This was the largest amount in any one place in the state. A peculiar feature of the month was the wide variance of rain in restricted areas. For instance, Shawnee county received 5 inches, and Osage county, just to the south of Shawnee, received 11.16 inches in the southern part. In Coffey county the precipitation in the northern part was 6.79 inches while the southern part of the same county received 14.22 inches. In the western part of the state Kearny count reported .60 of an inch, Wichita county .5 9, Thomas county .91 and Sheridan county received 87 of an inch. The rains were heaviest in the east, southeast and south-central parts of Kansas. Since the first of this year the total precipitation for Kansas is 3S.89 inches, which is more than twice the normal amount for this period and greater than the amount for any cal endar year on record.

"I was not exactly sick, but was lan guid and listlers all the time. I would get up in the mornings, after a sleep less night, feeling loggy, or heavy and dizzy. "My stomach was out of order, ana my digestion was very poor. I had no ambition or energy and my work seemed very tiresome. "I was recently induced by a rnena to try Tanlac. He said: It has helped me and I know it will do you good too. I was soon glad that I be gan taking Tanlac, becauf-e the medi cine ma.de me feel like an entirely new man.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENIW OCTOBER 6, 1915. WIZARDSAT WORK Inventors, Headed ly Edison, Hear Call of Dnty. "Wilson Outlines His Views to Galaxy of Experts. SAYS 'PREPARE FOR DEFENSE' President Upholds Ideal of Self Respecting 'ation. Spirit of True Democracy in Voluntary Aid. Washington, Oct. 6. President Wil son outlined his attitude toward the national defense question today to the new advisory board of the navy. He believed, he said the whole nation was "convinced lhat we oupht to be prepared, not for war, but for defense, and very adpquattly prepared." The president received the members of the board, headed by Thomas A. Kciison, after their preliminary con ference with Secretary Daniels and navv officials. The board later went with Secretary Daniels to the naval An Easy Way to Increase Weight Good Advise for Thin Folks. The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weipht is that they Insist on drupfriim their stomach or stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing on useless "flesh creams," or following some foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thin ness goes untouched. You cannot Ret fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food you eat. There is a preparation known to reliable druggists almost everywhere which seem ingly embodies the missiug. elements needed bv the digestive organs to help them con vert food into rich, fat-laden blood. This Biodern treatment is en lied Sargol and has been termed the greatest of flesh-buildings. Sargol aims through regenerative, re-cou-structive powers to coax the stomach and Intestines to literally soak up the fattening elements, of vour food and pass them into the blood where they are carried to the starved, broken-down cells and tissues of vour body. You can readily picture what result this ama.ing transformation should produce as with increased weight the cheeks fill out. hollows about neck, shoul ders and bust disapiear and from 10 to 'JO pounds of solid, healthy flesh is added to the bodv. Sargol is absolutely harmless, inexpensive, efficient. Arnold Ilrug "o. and other leading druggists of this vicinity have it and will refund your nionev if you are not satisfied, as per the guarantee found in every package. NOTE Sargol is recommended only as a flesh builder and while excellent results in cases of nervous indigestion, etc., have been reported care should be taken about using it unless a gain of weight is desired.

"There is very little that I can say to you," President Wilson said, "ex cept to ETive you a very cordial wel come and to express my very great pleasure in this association of laymen with the government. But I do want to Fay this: "I. think the whole nation,, is con vinced that we ought to be prepared, not for war, brt for defense, and very adequately prepared, and that the pre paration for defense is rot merely a technical matter. It is not a matter thEt the army and navy alone can take care of, but a matter in which we must have the co-operation of the best, brains-and knowledge of the country outside the official service of the gov ernment as well as inside. For my part, I feel that it is only in the spirit of a true democracy that we. get to gether to lend such voluntary aid the sort of aid that comes from inter est, from a knowledge of the varied circumstances that are involved in handling a nation. Very Serious Purpose. T want you to feel those of you who are coming to the assistance of the professional officers of the gov ernment that we have a very serious purpose; that we have not asked you to associate yourself with us except for a very definite and practical purpose to get you to srive us your best inde pendent thoughts as to how we ought to make ready for any duty that may fall upon the natioa. "I do not have to expound it to you: vou know as well as 1 do the spirit of America. The spirit of America is one of peace, but one of independence. It is a spirit that is profoundly concerned with peace, because it can express it self best only in peace. It is the spirit of peace and good will and of human freedom, but it is also the spirit of a nation that is self-conscious, that knows and loves its mission in the world. To Safeguard America. "So it seems to me that we are not working as those who would change anything of America, but only as those who would safeguard everything in America. I know that you will enter into conference with the officers of the navy in that spirit and with that feel- Acute Articular Rheumatism The exact canse of rheumatism Is un known, though It is generally believed to be due to an excess of uric acid in the blood. It may be also said with equal truth that no remedy has been found which is a specitlo in all cases. -Intact the literature of rheu matism shows that there are but few drugs which have not been given a trial. In the bands ol one observer we find that a certain drug has been used with the utmost satis faction; others have found the same remedy to be a great disappointment.

IN NORTHTOPEKA Percy Levell Extricates Him self From Two Warm Places. Indian Creek Grange Fair Will Start Thursday Morning. A warm place apparently holds no terrors for Percy Levell. This morn ing he found himself in two, but was able to get out of both with equal ease. At 7:30 o'clock this morning Officer Jones called on Mr. Levell at his resi dence, 1410 Logan street. Jones vic ried a warrant for Levell's arrest. The situation looked bad for Levell. When Jones entered Levell w.'S seated before the kitchen oven. Hid shoes were underneath the stove, bis feet on top of it and a fire within. Levell's calm in such a warm position had no significance for Jones just then. When Jones flashed his warrant, Levell's mother pleaded with the of ficer to forget that he had the docu ment. Jones stood by his duty. Le vell donned his footwear and sought permission to get his cap alleged to have been up stairs. Jones gave the premises the "once over." The house was full two stories. A drop .'rom the second story would be anything but convenient. So Jones gave his consent. It was a cold morning any way. Jones Waited several minutes. Then he waited several more minutes. When it appeared that Levell was in no hur ry to re-appear, Jones went up stairs. Later this morning Jones was un able to state through which window Levell made his exit or what becam; of him. The warrant, however, hus not yet been served. Levell is wanted on a warrant issued by the juvenile court, charging him with being a delinquent parent. The warrant was issued on complain of his wife, Edith Levell. She complains that Percy is making no effort to sup port their child, Rosetta. Until the first of the month, Levell was employed as a section hand by the Union Pacific railroad. Fair Starts Thursday. The tenth annual fair of the Indian Creek Grange will open at 8 o'clock Thursday morning. Every indication points to its eclipsing any of the ten that preceded it. The finishing touches preparatory to the opening will be put on today, All booths must be completed and all exhibits must be on the ground before this evening. The committee in charge of the ar rangements consists of F. P. Rude, J. M. Pollom. Mrs. R. Snodgrass, Mrs, E. R. Cheney, O. R. Niccum, C: S. Scott, J. W. Hiller, H. L. Moore, Mrs. D. L. Burton, E. L.

c THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 6, 1915. 9 1 r r 1 f SOCIETY (Continued from Preceding Page.1 Resident's Day luncheon has come to: be an institution in the Topeka Federation scheme of things. The plan of having a President's Day party was inaugurated with a luncheon when Mrs. Albrecht Marburj began her term of office as president. The af fair opens the club season with a cer tain eclat that helps to put spirit into the proceedings of the entire vear. The president, tar the year, Mrs. D. L. McEachron, presided at the party yeeterday. Previous to the luncheon the president, and the members of the social committee, Mrs. W. A Johnston, Mrs. Arthur Capper and Mrs. David W. Mulvane. received the guests, and standing in line with them was Mrs. A. H. Horton, the guest of honor, who &lso sat at the right of ihe president during the luncheon. Mrs. Horton has been in Kansas City this winter with her daughter, Mrs. Earl McDowell, and returned in time for the luncheon, to remain in Topeka during the winter. Mrs. Hor ton was for two terms president of the old organization known as the Topeka Federation of Women's clubs, and was also president of the re organized Federation of Women dur ing the days of its early struggles when the suffrage campaign was on and comparatively little interest was taken in general club work. In past years she has been active in ucu" ment work in Topeka. She was iden tified with the work of the city library in its early history, and she was one of the women who assisted in making the local Y.'M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Institutions of importance and' in fluence in Topeka. She was one of the organizers of the D. A. K. here, and a past officer. The social committee was assisted In the program for the day by the music and literary committees, and the heads of the various departments of the club responded to toasts. Mrs. McKachron introduced the speakers, the first of whom w.s Mrs S. S. Kstey, whose subject was "1 he JNow woman hood." She referred to a magazine article in a recent publication which said that the old time gentlewoman had passed away. She maintained that an interest and activity :n public affairs need not be incompatible with refinement, culture and gentleness. "It is our hope," she ea id, "to develop womanhood that will combine strength and courage with qualities of gentleness and virtue." At the beginning of the luncheon a festal grace was sunt; by Mrs. C. E. Jotlin and Mrs. Frank C. Squires. Mrs. C. B. Van Horn, of the depart ment of education responded to a toast. "Education of All Men and All the Man." She spoke of the necessity of an all-around education that de velops the physical, mental and moral nature of the individual. "We talk of i A SPOONFUL OF SALTS RELIEVES ACHING KIDNEYS AVe oat too much meat, which clogs Kidneys, says noted authority. It back hurts or Bladder bothers, stop all meat"for "a" while. When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it genearlly means you have been eat ing too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get slug gish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine le cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts: take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure anu maKes a delightful, effer i m mnia-water drink. Advertise- I central field of the Y. W. C. A. nient. educating the immigrant," she said "as though it were a matter of choice with us whether we do so or not. The fact is that we are educating him in spite of ourselves. He is being educa ed b- unregardir.g Americans, by in efficient Dolicemen. by politicians, by evervthing he docs and everyone he meets. In Kansas we have a scholar shin, loan fund in charge or the wo men's clubs, which gives a wonderful ooDortunity to many girls. We need w.-ll rou.ided minds capable of facin all situations in life and meeting all problems. I urge that women should study to become good citizens and ca pable of looking after their new re Rnonsibilities. Mrs. C. J. Evans was asked to re spend to the toast. "The World in Order," on behalf of the department of civics, of which she is chairman She remarked feelingly of the great work of America in maintaining the standards of civilization that seem to be overthrown in Europe; of Ameri ca's duty to keep peacu, as the larger work of American citizenship, and the nearer duty of keeping high standards in local Dublic affairs. By reason of the absence of Mrs. J. W. Thurston, chairman of the depart mcnt of justice, her vice-chairman Mrs. L. L. Kiene, spoke to the toast. "Unto every man his due." "It Is the due of every child to be born and brought up in sanitary, wholesome and moral surroundings. It is his right to have such training as will re sult in the best dr-velopment of health and character. The department of civics and of justice expect to units in an effort to bring about that condi tion as nearly as Ave can Mrs. W. A. Johnston gave a short speech on the plans of the social com mittee for the coming year, promising some parties for her department, the members of which are expected to come in from choice, and net from a disinclination to engage in the more strenuous duties of the other depart mcnts. Sha asked her vice-chairman, Mrs. Arthur CapDer, to respond to the toast, "A Pledge of Brotherhood." At Mrs. Capper's introduction, the company arose to greet her as the vile of the ogvernor. She speke brief ly of tha benign influences of friend liness to be found in social contact thnt it was io be the work cf the de partmeiit to foster. Mrs. Frank Jarrell. the gifted chairman of the literary department, responded to a toast, "The Feminine Vision." It is her plan to present some literary studies to her depart ment from some writirs of a high order. She said that a fine and spir itual type of literary work might be expected from the club women of to day. Mrs. Katherine W. Hand spoke for the art department. She express ed a wish that the club would be able to buy an original painting from the brush of a good artist She had in quired the price of a picture that she much admired and found that it ran into five figures, but she believed that something smaller might be obtained at a price within their reach. Mrs. C. J. Wilson, head of the music department, gave a love story in the form of a medley of name of musical compositions. "The World Beautiful," was the subjelt of a toast, assigned to Mrs. A. A. Robinson, chairman of the forestry department. Mrs. Robinson has not yet returned from the east, and in he r absence, Mrs. C. "VV. Kouns, vice-chairman, made the response. Mrs. W. W. Kitchell, chairman of the department in a toast entitled, "The Ultimate Goal." Mrs. Frank Whitmore sang a solo, and the program closed with a duet by Mrs. George H. Allen and Mrs. B. II. Pugh. Miss Nanon Herren gave a reading from Kipling. The sketch, cleverly rendered, was one of the Gadsby stories. The programs for the coming year were distributed. The year book was made ready by Mrs. H. O. Garvey and Mrs. W. A. McCarter, the program committee. As a surprise for the pres ident and the members, when the books were opened, they found on the first page a picture of Mrs. McEach ron. Mrs. Garvey, who presented the books, said, "The club is to be con gratulated that it is approaching its ideal, which was that it should grow to be a big department club. All the departments are now well organized with a definite and' interesting plan for the year's work." The Federation has extended its limit to 250 members, and the places are now practically filled. The program for the afternoon un der the general title of "What Today Calls For," was one of the most en tertaining and successful that the club has yet enjoyed. The B. C. B. club will meet Friday afternoon with Mrs. F. L. Park, 824 West street. Miss Katherine Dolman will enter tain her bridge club tonight in com pliment to her sister, Mrs. Grove Dol man of Ray, Arizona, who is a guest at the Frank Willard home.

in THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING. OCTOBER 6,1915. MANY HOT TILTS State Teachers' Convention Will Probably Be Stormy Affair. Dore of Peace Is Likely to Be Badly Abused. OLD ISSUES ARE OVER-RIPE Cigarettes, Movies and Frats Due for Censorship. Violations of Child Labor Law May Be Aired. While there will be a certain amount of diplomacy in evidence at the Kansas State Teachers' conven tion, the dove of peace will not rule supreme. There are a number of questions due to come up important ones that nave been hanging fire for vears, and this year action is prom ised Hence, the abolishment of the olive branch. D. A. Ellsworth, secre tary of the association, points out that this year's meeting is scheduled to make history for the teachers. A few of the very day problems to be dissected include cigarettes, movie censorship, observation of child labor laws, the textbook row and the Greek letter troubles. Ban on Cigarettes. One superintendent, in a small town near Topeka. reported forty boys who were, under surveillance and on their Kood acts in this matter of cigarettes alone. The amusing part about it was that the reports from the town, from the authorities, was that there were no cigarettes sold or used in the good town. but the superintendent of schools, who happened to be a man who wasn't afraid of losing his Job, said riant out that he had forty boys on the list to stop using them. Movie Man Due for "Call." Another bolt is likely to hit close in around the "movie-man" who puts himself outside the law and tries to sneak in pictures that shouldn't be shown, for fear there might be a gen tleman present, or some kid that has the makings of a high-class man to him. While the teachers may differ somewhat as to the wisdom of extend ing the censorship to include the gen oral artistic character of moving pic tures, there is not an exception to the demand that films should be clean. Iircgard Clulil I a lxr I-aws? The laxity in certain parts of the state in the matter of enforcing the child-labor laws to the last letter is another point that may come in con tact with a bolt from what seems a clear sky. Tei.itbook Bow I p. Just what the teachers will say en the textbook laws, is not so clear. There is a feeling that the law should be given a full, fair trial, but the teachers are against amateur texc" books put together by novices and sold by grace of local pride. If all the text books could be of the class, in scholar ship, organization and adaptation that the book of President H. J. Waters, on agriculture, is, there could be no such feeling as this for It is conceded that whatever of favor there may be to such an adoption, the favor of it cqmes from the author and not from the state. The feeling of opposition, holds in the purchase of plates for books Just because they are cheap and pos sibly "almost as good as new." Greek letter Trouble. The Greek letter frat trouble is more or less in evidence all over the state. A lot of principals and high school teachers have been showins back-bone in trying to keep them out. Just as the law provides. Some of them have done so at the risk of job and success, but they have stayed with it. Other teachers have been luke warm in the matter, even to winking a little too much at the near-secret societies. School men and school -women are as a rule opposed to secret societies in high schools from principle al though many of them were members in colleges and some possibly in high schools. The Greek letters are strong in Kan sas, of course. Baker university is about half and half, the College of Kmporia won't stand for them at all. The State Normal at Emporia Is get ting them faster and faster, and so the idea is spreading. But not in the high schools. TEAGHRS PROGRAM OUT (Continued from Page One.) president of Mt. Holyoke college, will bring to all the teachers will be as great a woman's message as one could hear in America. From many edu cators. Miss Woolley was chosen as the best for the notable Friday meeting. Moonlight Schools. "The Moonlight Schools" is pro nounced to be an address of such wonderful educational vision that it must prove an inspiration, to every teacher. The woman who has seen this revelation is Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart of Frankfort, Ky. The lecture is a masterpiece of its kind, and the Kansas teacher who, on Thursday evening, November 11, sees the pic tures that Mrs. Stewart paints of the "The Moonlight Schools" will find much to evaluate better the humbler things of school life. Henry Turner Bailey of Boston, Mass., is the other speaker for Thurs day evening. His subject will prob ably be. "The Whole Boy in the Whole tscnooi. Commercial Club Entertainment. Friday evening will be given over wholly to music. The Commercial club brinss the great Dutch contralto. Miss Tillie Koenen, for a song recital, complimentary to the teachers of Kan- Fas who are the guests of the city of Topeka. One thousand children, from the grade schools of Topeka. under the direction of Miss Mildred Hazel rigg. supervisor of music, will form two choruses of equal number to be heard on this occasion. Miss Koenen, in addition to these numbers, will give a program of a half hour's sequence consisting or ner greatest numbers. What such an evening of music, with one of the world's greatest contraltos as soloist, and two such great choruses of children s voices will be it should be hard to tell it should prove the supreme appeal to the feeling of the four great, general assemblies. Kansans on Program. The four meetings on Thursday and Fridav will be characterized by special numbers essentially Kansas. The first of these, on Thursday morning, will be "The Kansas Hour." in which Mrs. Jessie Wright Whitcomb. Henry Allen. Judge Henry Mason, Superin tendent W. r. noss. and Governor Arthur Capper, will speak briefly "each in his own tongue." In the eve ning, the great instructor in commun ity music, Peter W. Dykema of Wis consin, will direct an Association chorus for a half-hour's program. College Glee Clubs. Three college glee clubs, all Kan sans. will appear on the programs. They will represent Washburn, Baker and the University of Kansas. It nas been slyly intimated that the Baker University Glee club, through the in tensive loyalty of the boys to Miss Scott and their excessive pride in her presidency, will need to be handicap ped to even the contest but all will sing. Major Sections, .There are five of the major sections of the association and they will meet on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock.. The college section will hear an ad dress by President John T. Nollen of Lake Forest College, and the program will include discussion by President S. E. Price of Ottawa university, Presi dent F. E. Mossman of Southwestern college, Professor A. F. Walker of Kansas university. Professor J. E. Harshbarger of Washburn college, Pres'dent R. T. Campbell of Cooper college. President W. M. Mason of Baker university, and President E.. F. Pihlblad of Bethany college. The top ics have been chosen with the thought of getting at the most vital problems of college life. President Henry Coe Culbertson of the College of Emporia will preside. The graded school section, Superin tendent C. E. Rarick, chairman, will hear addresses by Dr. W. A. Jessup, of the University of Iowa; Professor Raymond Schwegler, University cf Kansas; Dean F. J. Kelley of the Uni versity of Kansas and State Normal schools, and P. W. Horn of Houston, Tex. The primary section will have for the leading address one by Mrs. Ann Gilchrist Strong of the University of Cincinnati. There will be general dis cussions on the "Problems and Per plexities of Primary Work." Mrs. Hattie Mitchell of Pittsburg is the chairman. High School Section. The high school section. Principal J. H. Sawtell. chairman, will have Dr. Jessup and Dr. Needham. And the rural school sections. Superintendent S. P. Rowland, chairman, will hear addresses by A. C. Monahan, Mabel Carney and others.
