Activities In both Republican and Democrat state headquarters will be i suspended tonight and the men who j have directed the political battle in j Kansas, during the last few weeks, will await the verdict of the voters in 1 Tuesday's election. Predictions today j of clear skies for Tuesday brought claims from both parties that a heavy vote favored their chances in the pres- idential and congressional fights in j this state. Charles Sessions, Republl- 1 can chairman; and Hubert Lardner,' had of. tha T&mocrat -state committee j renewed their assertions that they would win. Nearly every pound of campaign lit erature was mailed from state head quarters Saturday. Today the state leaders conferred with workers thru out the state and several hundred dol lars were spent for telephone and tele graph service. Final instructions were sent county chairmen and tonight the final move in the campaign will have been directed. The real work in the election fight will be in charge of the workers in the 105 counties who direct the fighting in the trenches .and carry the party banner in the local precincts.

A German dread naught was torpedoed yesterday off the Danish coast by and eEnglish sub marine, the admiralty announced to day. The damage done is not known, it was stated. It is known, however that the German warship was hit The announcement follows: One of our submarines operating in the North sea reports that she fired torpedoes at a German battleship of the dread naught type near the Danish coast yesterday. The vessel was hit. The amount of damage is unknown. The British announcement gives no intimation whether any considerable portion of the German high seas fleet was on the North sea yesterday. It was off the Danish coast that the main German and British fleets en gaged in battle last May. On several occasions the German fleet has left its base for short cruises in the North sea. Ordinarily a dreadnaught would not be employed merely for reconnoiter-ln. GIRL OF 14 TELLS OF A BLACKMAIL PLANjNTOPEKA Declares Her Mother Used Her as Lure for Men. Took Money From Victims Among Rich Here. SHE WAS UNWILLING VAMPIRE Gladys Frisbie Giyes Away Se cret to Police Officers. Procured $8 From One Wealthy Aged Topeban. Fourteen-year-old Gladys Frisbie doesn't fit the popular conception of the "vampire." She is lacking in age and in experience in the ways of men and women. She's Just a child. But she told county officers today, between sobs, that her own mother, Lucy "War ner, had been using her as a lure for men for two years with the object of blackmail. The little girl's story Indicates that she has been a very unwilling "vam pire;" that while she has been more or less successful in shaking down old men with long purses and short mem ories, she had no heart in the game. But at that, she says she would have gone on and -on had not some neigh bor told Miss Kate King that the girl needed looking after. The child's mother, Lucy Warner, came to Topeka about state fair time, in company with a Greek named An drew Speel. The three have been liv ing together at 210 East Fifth street Mrs. Warner is about 35 years of age while Speel is only 23. The girl says they are not married and that her mother is not divorced from a former nusoana named. Warner. "We came to Topeka from Pennsvl vania," said Gladys, "and we had to leave there in a hurry. By using me they took $900 from an old man According to the girl's story a To pekan, an old man reputed to have plenty of money, had been marked as a victim. Went Out With Him. "Because mother insisted upon it I have been out with him several times," said the girl, "and I think she got sev en or eight dollars from him. But things were not ready to hit him hard, she said. I have been scared and didn't know what to do. She has made me do things I did not want to do and she told me that if there was any trouble for me to say I was over it years old. But I know I am only 14 years old.' County officials have the name of the aged Topekan who appears to have laiien into the toils of the Warner woman. They have not consulted him. j If the girl's story develops sufficient ly he will find that he has uncovered 'a deep vein of trouble in "running around'' with the 14 year old girl. 1 Gladys Frisbie was almost a nervous wreck when Miss King took her in charge Sunday afternoon. She became more nervous as the evening progress ed and it was necessary to call a physician to quiet her. It was to the physician that the girl first told her story. She repeated it today to Har vey Parsons, chief of police, and later to Robert Garver, assistant county at torney. "You are sure your mother and this Greek are not married? was asked. Her Father Is Dead. "How can they be married when my mother is not divorced from Mr. War ner?" countered the girl. "My own father died years ago then my mother married Mr. Warner. They separated and not long ago she took up with this Greek, Speel. He's only 23 years of age and my mother is twelve years older than he is." Following the statements of the girl a warrant was issued for Mrs. Warner and Andrew Speel. Charles Hixon and Joseph Holman, deputy sheriffs, took the warrant to serve It at 210 East Fifth street and learned from neigh bors that the man and woman left there early today. The girl talked to her mother over the telephone from the police station at 8 o'clock this morning, but apparently the couple left town after that. I The mother has deserted her daugh ter. The girt wondered today, even i after she told of the things she alleges her mother had forced upon her, what S was to become of her without her par ent. It was with difficulty that or ficers kept her quiet long enough to get her story. Once, while she was telling it to Robert Garver, a door slammed and she sprang out of her chair. Temporarily she will be placed in the county detention home. NEW STOCK YARDS Wolff Packing Company Will Enlarge Facilities. Spend Ten Thousand for Con crete Shutes and Sheds. A permit was Issued at the city hall today, to the Wolff Packing company, to erect a $10,000 cattle shed and double-deck cattle shute. The entire structure will be of reinforced con crete and according to the permit will be completed about December 1. "The shed will hold about 500 cat tle," said Charles Wolff, jr. "It will be erected to the east of our new kill ing department, which is now under construction, and will be used in con nection with that department." U. S. Steel Keeps Going t'p. New York, Nov. 6.

British Evacuate Recently Won Warlencourt Position. FRENCH YIELD AT SAILLISEL Rumania Reports Defeat Teutons in Dobrudja. of In Retreat, Enemy Sets Fire to Rumanian Towns. London, Nov. 6. A strong German counter attack last night compelled the British to relinquish a portion of the ground they had captured in the neighborhood of Butte de Warlencourt on the Somme front, the war office announced today. Teutons Win in Night Attack. Paris, Nov. 6. German counter at- f tacks which followed yesterday's im- portant advance against newly consoli t dated French positions between St. I Pierre Vaast wood and the village of iSailly-Saillisel were partially success ful in the wood and at Saillisel, the war office announced today. The Teuton counter attacks were made late last night and some ground was gained by them. Elsewhere the enemy was repulsed. Violent cannonading was reported about Damloup, but no infantry ac tion in that region. Turn Tables on Teutons. Bucharest, Nov. 6. The war office announces that Rumanian forces in Dobrudja have compelled the retire ment of Teutonic troops which in their retreat set fire to several villages. Straighten Verdun lefenses. London, Nov. 6. Their front in the Verdun region now relieved of dan gerous bends and salients north and northeast of the great fortress by smashing victories at Vaux and Dam loup villages, French armies are now set for further advances against troops of the German crown prince. Advances north of the Somme like wise have made possible flanking op erations against Bouchavesnes and Blaches. Expectation of such a move ment is such since, if successful it will straighten the French frm Sailliasel to Peronne and give General Foch po sitions that would bear seriously on Peronne itself. British victories on the Ancre bank have made German positions at Grandeourt and Pys dangerous to hold much longer. Battle Desperately for Heights. Petrograd, Nov. 6 (via London). German forces yesterday several times assumed the offensive on the Russian western front in the region east of the village of Llpitiza-Dolnaia and west of the village of Silavenin with the object of capturing the command ing heights occupied by the Russians. All the German attacks, according to an official statement issued today by the Russian war department, were frustrated by a violent Russian artil- (Continued on Page Two.) WILL THE BLOCKADE HOLD? By BRINKERHOFF. ,i m tt n i i i ii t c r i n I I i 11 ;-jr(fT-' ROBERT STONE Hundreds of circulars are being used and many men are working to day in an effort to defeat Robert Stone for representative in Shawnee county. The fight is based on the fact that Mr. Stone is a good lawyer and that the value of his services were recognized by several corporations which were willing to pay good fees for his professional advice and service. Mr. Stone has represented Shawnee county in the legislature twelve years. He has fought for every interest of To peka and Shawnee county. He never shirked and he was constantly on the job. He worked for the most con structive legislation written in Kansas in the years he has been a member of the house. Six years ago when Governor Stubbs was charged with throwing Stone in the speakership fight. Stone did not sulk in the Republican tent. He worked with Speaker Buckman in the enactment of progressive, constructive laws. Following Stone's election as speaker in 1915, he fought the pork barrel program of minority members. In the state fair fight, in the fight for Memorial hall, for the state print ing plant, for the paving claim, for the state house white way and for every measure that benefited Topeka and Shawnee county. Stone worked untiringly for the interests of his con stituents. Now it is charged that Stone is an attorney for the Kansas Natural Gas company. It is asserted he is an at torney for certain insurance com panies. It is claimed that he is the attorney for large grain companies. Granted- These corporations select lawyers who are worthy of their hire. It has never been charged that Robert Stone was not faithful to every trust. Nor is it claimed he did not represent Shawnee county's interests in the leg islature. But because he is a lawyer of ability, Shawnee county has been asked to defeat one of the most valu able representatives elected in recent years. 62 BUILDINGS BURN Second Disastrous Fire Within Year Wipes Oat Oklahoma Town. Wirt. Okla.. Nov. 6. Sixty-two buildings on Main street were in ruins today as the result or tne second dis astrous fire here within a year. The fire, which started early yesterday from a disconnected gas pipe m a res taurant, had practically wiped the town from the map in four hours.

"Communication still cut off," said the telegram from Trevino. "Have no information from Parral. Making ef forts 'o get news." On the same train bringing the American refugees last night were the families of two staff officers of Tre vino and the families -of seven French residents of the 'Chihuahua capital leaving, there in fear that Villa will next attack that city.

What the women will have to say may mean a whole lot to political managers tomor row. The feminine voting contingent will have a chance to register its will in twelve states, incluring California. The campaign closing today has de veloped some remarkable instances of renewal of friendships politically speaking.- In California. Hiram W. Johnson, Roosevelt's running mate on the Progressive ticket of four years ago. and the man who turned the Re publican machine upside down when he was elected governor, is the Repub lican senatorial candidate, supported by William H. Crocker, and other men with whom he formerly was at swords' points. In Washington, Miles Poindexter, former ardent Rooseveltite. is back in the Republican fold, associated in the G. O. P. fight with Sam Perkins, na tional committeeman and old fash ioned "regular of regulars." Mix-ups in state fights in Califor nia, Washington and Colorado have added to the picturesqueness of the campaign In this section of the coun try. While Hughes was in California, he was "kidnapped" by the "regular" Republicans, who ignored the Johnson type of Republicans in arranging things for the presidential candidate. A great deal of bitterness developed among the Republicans by this mix up. was not removed until Johnson's overwhelming victory in the primaries. On a smaller scale a somewhat simi lar mix-up occurred during Hughes's tour of Colorado where the present governor and Republican candidate for re-election, George A. Carlson, was almost "frozen out" for a time, by those in charge of Hughes's state trav els. Almost overshadowing the national issues in California, is the state pro hibition movement. A tremendously hot fight has been waged on both sides of this argument. California is one of the few "wet" cases in the desert drouth of Colorado, Oregon and Wash ington and the Prohibitionists are making a tremendous fight to put it in the dry column. Oregon was the one state in the Union which by court judgment was permitted to register its will at the primaries for Justice Hughes as the Republican nominee. As in Washing ton, the tariff has been the issue on which the Republicans have placed most reliance in their claims of carry ing them into the Republican column. Republican campaign managers as sert confidently that the greater part of the women's vote in the suffrage states will be lined up for Hughes be cause of the Republican nominee's ad vocacy of their cause. A goodly part of the women's vote of four years ago went to the Progressives, and the Democrats are claiming that It will be the Democrats' tomorrow. BOTH CLAIM MISSOURI Dernocrata Predict '50,000 Plurality "Ours by 25,000," Says G. O. P. St. Louis, Nov. 6. Democratic lead ers are declaring today that the elec tion in Missouri Tuesday will be a sweeping victory for their national and state tickets, while Republicans main tain they will carry the state by 25,000 plurality for Hughes and Henry Lamm (for governor). The Democrats assert their plurality will be 60,000. Great interest is being evinced in the prob able fate of an initiative iroh bition amendment. Saloon men in St. Louis are urging that party lines be forgot ten to insure the amendment's defeat. The "drys" hope to poll enough votea in the state to overcome the probable wet majority in the larger cities. WAR MEDALS TO POET Italian Bard Proves Mettle as Aviator on Battle Front. Rome, Nov. 6.- Gabriele d'Annun zio, the poet, has been promoted to captain for bravery in an attack on October 10-11. The poet was also rec ommended a second time for the silver medal for valor. D'Annunzio was commissioned lieutenant in the airplane corps at the outbreak of the war. He made three flights over Triest, dropping poetic messages instead of bombs. He was seriously injured in the right eye in an aeroplane accident last February and was decorated the following month for his services as an aeroplane observer. Gas Explosion Burns Firemen. Chicago.

.."-I sr r--v iunzs MUNICIPAL GROCERY 'Frisco Supervisor Promotes It to Counteract Famine. San Francisco. Nov. 6. A municipal grocery store may be San Francisco's answer to the present high coat of liv ing. Supervisor Charles Nelson declared today that he would soon introduce an ordinance providing for the estab lishment of a warehouse for distribu tion of provisions and moderate prices. "A famine is facing the poorer classes in San Francisco by reason of the enormous increases in food prices," said Nelson. "I know of cases here where families are actually going without proper nourishment because of their inability to pay the grocer and their rent at the same time. "Unless there is a speedy improve ment in conditions, I propose to urge the establishment of a new city de partment a municipal grocery, if you like. It would involve purchase by the city of huge quantities of pro visions and holding them against pro hibitive prices that may develop. These provisions could then be sold at rock bottom prices the city aimiing to do nothing more than pay expenses POLISH KINGDOM (Cootlnued from Page One.) time was not ripe for the nomination of the hereditary sovereign promised in the manifesto. Plead Allegiance of Poland. General von Beseler replied in crisp, soldierly phrases that in the midst of the world war had come the moment of fulfillment of the long cherished Polish wish for re-establishment of the Polish kingdom. "Doubts as to the future," he said, "can find no place in Polish hearts. It will be our task, shoulder to shoul der with the residents of Poland, to carry the war to a victorious conclu sion and to heal the wounds of war. Take places at our side, in confidence which we repay by the magnanimous decision of the Austro-German mon archs who place their seal on the plans for the unity .of Poland. Mr.y all good fortune attend the kingdom of Po land." A band in an adjoining gallery struck up the strains of the ancient national anthem and after a few bars had been played the Poles in the hall burst spontaneously into the strains which recite the ancient glories, the fallen fortunes and the undying hopes of Poland. Twenty minutes saw the end of the ceremony and the partici pants excitedly discussing the future, slowly made their way from the palace thru the crowded court yard into the throng outside. So far as an observer unfamiliar with the language could judge there seemed to be a sentiment of genuine enthusiasm among the Polish repre sentatives in the hall. In the assem blage were the members of the new city councils, delegates from the univer sity, the faculties of the academies of science and art, members of the Ro man Catholic clergy headed by the archbishop, the bearded chief rabbi and Jewish subordinate?, and leading representatives of the old Polish aristocracy. While General von Beseler was reading the manifesto inside the pal ace, crowds scanned posters bearing the text of the proclamation which were being pasted at every street cor ner. Presently the student body emerged from the castle portal and wormed its way thru the1 multitude bearing the banner announcing the birth of the Polish empire. The cries and cheers of the students provided a quicker means of speading the news of what had taken place. Text of Proclamation. Berlin, Nov. 6, by wireless to Say ville. The text of the letter sent by Emperor Franz Josef to the Austrian premier, Ernest von Koerber, regard ing the Polish manifesto, is given by the Vienna Zeitung as follows: "In accordance with my agreement with his majesty, the German em peror, a national state will be an heredity monarchy and a constitution al government will be formed of the Polish districts conquered by our brave armies from Russian domina tion. "On this occasion are remembered with deep emotion the many evidences of devotion and faith during my reign on the part of the land of Galioia and likewise of the great and heavy sacri fices which this land had to take for the victorious defense of the eastern frontiers of my realm. "It Is, therefore, my will, at the moment when the new state comes into exiptence, to grant the right ro i the land In Gallcia to settle public affair autonomously so far as is con sistent with the fact that Oallcin, forms part of our commonwealth and so far as is consistent with the welfare of that land: and thus to offer to the population of Galicia a guarantee of national and economic development. "In notifying you of my purpose in this connection, I request you to elaborate projects suitable for its legal realization and to place them before me." Only One "BROMO QriNIN-E."

SLAP ATJRITAIN Mexico Resents Orders to En force Neutrality Along Coast. Keep U-Boats From Leafing Base," Aguilar Advises. Mexico City. Nov. 6. Foreign Min ister Aguilar replied to Great Britain's demands that Mexican neutrality be vigorously enforced as regards the German submarine believed to be operating in territorial waters of the southern republic. The British note sent thru Secretary of State Lansing and warning against aid or assistance being afforded the Teuton submarine, created strongly unfavorable feeling, which expressed itself in Aguilar's reply. The Carranza foreign minister first pointed out that he failed to see why the British note should have been sent thru the United States department in stead of direct to the Mexican foreign office. He declared Mexican neutral ity would be enforced but pointed out that Mexico could no more be held responsible for German submarine operations off her coasts than could the United States be held responsible for the recent activities of the TJ-53 off Nantucket, after that undersea fighter had entered an American port. Displays Sarcasm. The reply with thinly veiled sar casm, suggests that the best way to assure continued friendly relations be tween the two governments is for the British fleet to prevent German sub marines from leaving their base, thus eliminating any chance for disagree ment. The Carranza foreign office, Aguilar declared, will, however, permit no stain on its neutrality by any warships or tne Deuigerent nations. BOTH PARTIES Continued from page 1.) local issues and a few contests for con gress. Tennessee is claimed by the Demo cratic state chairman by a 25,000 plu rality but the Republicans say that the visit of Charles E. Hughes to Nash ville helped them greatly and that they not only will cut deeply into the normal Democratic vote but will elect at least a part of their state ticket, and four congressmen. Democratic Strife in Florida. The Democratic managers claim that North Carolina will give the state and national ticket a majority of 40, 000 and that they will unseat Repre sentative Brttt of the Tenth district, one of the few southern Republicans in congress. While making no claims for the state the Republicans asse-t that they will Increase their repre sentation in the lower house to three. Seizinr the opportunity offered by Democratic party strife in Florida, the Republicans have made an unusually vigorous campaign in favor of their state ticket headed by George W. Al len of Key West. Louisiana is expected to give onn J Parker a good sized vote for vice president. Ballot Shortage In Oklahoma? Oklahoma City, Nov. 6. Charges that there will be a ballot shortage in tomorrow's election, with the possible disfranchisement of many voters thereby were made today at Repub lican headquarters. Republican lead ers said a much smaller supply of bal lots for voting on the so-called fair election law amendment had been sent to many counties than the ballots for national and state officers.

They Probably Will Ask for an Investigation. BIG ATTENDANCE EXPECTED More Than Four Thousand Have Registered Already. Contest for Presidency Arous ing Little Interest. Resolutions requesting the legisla ture to vote no funds for a more ex tensive state publication propaganda, until a thoro investigation is made, probably will be the only proposition to cause a fight in the fifty-fourth an nual session of the Kansas State Teachers' association. Such a resolu tion has been passed by groups of teachers, in meetings held in Kansas, during the year and now it is threat ened that the resolution will go be fore the entire body of teachers. The investigation would call for the appointment of a committee of educa tors to investigate the books published by the state from an educational standpoint. At the same time it would call for the appointment of a cost ex pert to check up the figures and work done from a cost and efficiency basis. Candidates for President. Altho a number of well known Kan sas educators have been mentioned for the presidency of the association, there appears to be no bitter fight threaten ed. It seems to be the consensus of opinion that it will not be proper to elect a grade school man this year and that the job should be given to a rep resentative of some other department of education. W. A. Brandenburg, president of the State Manual Training school at Pitts burg, has been mentioned time and Absolutely Removes Indigestion.

Miss Mary A. Whitney of the de partment of history, at the State Nor mal school at Emporia, are others who have been mentioned as candidates. Seven Thousand at Least. An unprecedented attendance at the convention is expected by F. L. Pinet, secretary. At 6 o'clock Saturday eve ning, 4,126 teachers had registered their names with him. On the Wed nesday night preceding the convention last year the total registration was only 3,000. "There will be at least 7,000 teach ers here and maybe 8,000,'" said Mr. Pinet today. FOR BOB STONE E. C. Fox Says Support Is Needed for Worthy Topekan. To Editor State Journal: When a man cries thiefl thief! we are a little inclined to look sharp, and see what he is up to, and this applies to politics as well as business. And so it is that when one candidate for a po sition as a public officer hints or im plies that there is some misrepresen tation or fraud or dishonesty in the acts of his opponent, we naturally wonder what personal advantage such a candidate is looking for. Our present representative from the Thirty-five district, Mr. Robert Stone, is known by friend and foe alike, be they Democrat or Republican, as a square, clean, honorable gentleman, who has conscientiously and intelli gently represented the interest of the common people of Shawnee county as faithfully as the most idealistic mind could desire. His personal life, his Christian char acter or his ability or integrity can not be assailed, so naturally his opponent appears to grasp at a straw like a drowning man, and presents to the voters by cards, and anonymous circu lars, a senseless attack on his business ability (not because of lack of ability) and accuses him of being attorney for the "Insurance trust" and the gas company. Yes, the firm of Stone McDer mott, because of their ability and honesty, are at times hired by insur ance companies to defend them and the funds of the public, against dis honest claimants, and at times repre sent claimants against insurance com panies; but is that any crime? No! and the implied slur on the word "trust" does not fool the intelligent voter into the belief that Air. Stone is a wrongdoer, because in his chosen profession he intelligently represents intelligent corporations. And as to the gas company, no intelligent reader could possibly connect him with the alleged frauds perpetrated long be fore his connection with them. Not being a politician, I am unable to make forecasts, but it would seem that on the eve of this election, the honest ;hinking people of Topeka should easily decide to return to the legislature, the man who has the abil ity to, and will honestly administer his public duties Mr. Robert Stone. EDWIN C. FOX. LIKE LOT'S WIFE Mrs. Campbell Ixxks Backward and Drives Her Car Into a Wagon Mrs. E. A. Campbell, 1212 Garfield avenue, drove her red touring car into the rear of a delivery wagon of the Union Pacific Tea company at 1:30 o'clock this avenue. The accident oc curred on Kansas avenue a little north of the intersection of Eighth avenue. The collision resulted in one of the rear wheels being torn from the de livery wagon. H. S. Fowler, the driv er, escaped without injuries. Both the delivery wagon and the Campbell machine were driving south on Kansas avenue. Witnesses assert that Mrs. Campbell was not speeding. She had some groceries in the car and thought some of them had fallen to the ground. "I didn't know the wagon was so close," said Mrs. Campbell, "and looked over my shoulder to see if I had dropped anything." Mrs. Campbell stopped the car al most instantly. She gave her name and address to J. E. Maze, traffic of ficer, and assured him that she would pay for the damages done to the de livery wagon.

WlUiCOX, Chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee. Mr. McCormick's figures are so ridiculous that they don't merit a moment's .serious -consideration. Why does he not claim every state? He would be fully warranted in do ing so if we are to accept his esti mates on New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and Connecticut. We are perfectly satisfied that we shall have more than 300 votes in the electoral college. I sincerely believe that we shall carry New Yok state by at least 150,000 plu rality.

Nels Ylngle. The meeting of the Northeast Civic club to have been held tomorrow has been postponed. On account of the election the Cur rent Topic club of the Y. M. C.

There are 13, 521 men and 10,879 women entitled to vote. Few walked up Jackson street be tween Ninth and Tenth streets today without getting plenty of exercise chasing their hats across the state house grounds. There is little likelihood of the city's accepting the J100 license fees of the Topeka jitneurs, offered with a pro viso that the big jitneys be permitted to operate on all streets. Several hundred patrons of the Y. M. C. A. cafeteria are eating their beans elsewhere owing to the remodel ing of the cafeteria. Meala will be served again beginning Thursday noon. Dorothy Adamson, a senior in the ToDeka high school, seriously burned both hands today while working at a steam table in the high school cafe teria. The accident occurred shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon. Topeka automobilists are complain ing of the prices charged for gasoline by some of the garage men and others, selling gasoline in towns near the city. The price, automobilists contend, is exorbitant and a boycott list by the Topeka Automobile club is threatened. A six room house on the farm be longing to W. H. Edwards, a mile and a quarter northeast of the city, burned to the ground at 10 o'clock this morn ing. The loss is estimated at $1,500, of which $1,000 is covered by insur ance. The origin of the fire is un known. Grover Scritchfield can do just one of two things. He can pay up the back alimony due his divorced wife under a court order and continue to pay at the rate of $15 a month, or spend one year in the county jail. That was the ultimatum issued today by Judge A. W. Dana who granted the Scritchfield divorce lailt May. At a recent meeting of the Baird Pneumatic Tool company the follow ing directors were elected: E. C. Ar nold, C. W. Horn, A. M. Baird. L. G. Harper, P. W. Wright, G. E. McEn- tyre and J. S. Haskell.

The detective didn't know anything about them but their age and the fact that they carried a sack containing a lot of underwear and tobacco aroused his suspicions. They broke down and told their story in the police station. They had committed no crime. They were simply running off on their way to Nevada where they expected to earn $4 a day as delivery boys.

CASTOR I A For Infants and Children En Use For Over 30 Years Always bears the Signature of bit vaxce c. Mccormick. Chairman of the Democratic Na tional Committee. I still stick to my prediction that President Wilson will receive at least 364 of the 531 votes in the electoral colege. He may get more, but not less. Advices received to day confirm my prophecy that New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin are perfect ly safe for Wilson. Republican claims of New York are absurd. I shall be surprised if the presi dent does not sweep the country by the biggest plurality ever cast for a candidate for that office.

TOO COMPLACENT Topekans Need Jarring Up, Says Madame Dayenport. Famous Russian Woman to Speak Again Wednesday. Topekans are too complacently self satisfied and need to be jarred into a realization of their condition, accord ing to Madame Charlotte de Goliere Davenport, famous Russian lecturer and authority on physical well being, who spoke Sunday in the Unitarian church. Madame Xavenport suc ceeded in jarring some of them with her characteristic short arm jabs straight from the shoulder. Too much attention is given to the stomach and not enough to the brain, Madame Davenport told the audience, and she also took a crack at the usual methods of rearing children- Madame Davenport is the mother of eleven children, and should be an authority on the subject. She speaks in broken English, but in "spite of her 93 year3 succeeds in easily making herself un derstood. Madame Davenport started out to be a physician, according to her story, and spent seven years in preparatory school and in Vienna university, study ing medicine. Within a few months after she started practicing her pro fession she discovered that she was a failure as a doctor thru her belief that sickness is inexcusable. "When a bald headed map came to me for treat ment I scolded him instead of giving him medicine she said, "and when women came to me I berated them for being ill instead of giving them pills, so I soon lost my practice." To Speak Again Wednesday. Madame Davenport then became a hygienist, and if she is a follower of her own teachings Madame Daven port is the best argument in favor, of such a life. In spite of her age she spoke for more than an hour and was as fresh at the end as at the begin ning. She loves to go swimming, she stated, and she rides horseback and dances as much and as well as when she was 25 years old. Madame Davenport is an accom plished pianist, and sang a Russian hymn for the congregation. She came here from Colorado Springs unan nounced and her audience did not come up to expectations, altho the lit tle church was well filled. She will deliver another lecture Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock in the Unitarian church, 914 Topeka avenue. All her lectures are free to the public. Madame Davenport promises a better lecture Wednesday than her talk Sun day morning as she is at her best in the evening. Madame Davenport came to Amer ica in 19r5 to recuperate after a period of nursing in a war hospital. Her magnificent home in "Vienna has been turned into a hospital for wounded Austrian soldiers. While in Topeka she is stopping at the home of Doctor Swallow, Tenth avenue and Harrison IN NORTHJOPEKA M. F. Troxell, parole agent at the Boys' Industrial school, announced the following recent paroles: Harvey Ruby, Newell Tenney, Lee Hughes, Phillip Blake and McKlnley Laneer. An old man, for years a farmer, re siding in the vicinity of North Topeka, a Civil war veteran, stepped into Sheetz's grocery store this morning, put his hand to his head and said to one of the clerks, "I don't know but what you'll have to take me home to night. I'm not quite clear in my head. I wonder if I'm not in the Ozarks of Missouri I see so many Wilson pic tures in the windows." He peered out at th,e smoky sky. "I thought I was in Kansas City again, but I don't know." Notes and Personals. J. F. Beasley and his brother-in-law, Henry Harrison, have returned from a visit to relatives in Oklahoma.

CHARGE OF TREASON Munition Makers Arrested for Making Shells Unfit lor Use, Hamilton, Ont., Nov. 6. Eric Alex ander Nylin and Erich H. Nylin, fath er and son, German Swedes, who until yesterday were employed on muni tions by the Bowes-Jamison company, Ltd., are being held on the charge of conspiring against the king by render- ing unfit for use high explosive shells on which they were engaged. When the two prisoners receive their hearing next Thursday they will, the authorities assert, face a charge of high treason. j The elder Nylin formerly worked for i the Bliss company, Brooklyn, and also i for the Packard Motor Car company J of Detroit. When he came here ..ine months ago he carried excellent ere- I dentials from these two firms. He was engaged a3 superintendent of munitions. His son was engaged as foreman. Both men, after being ar- i rested, admitted they wete Swedes of j German descent. According to testimony of two shell j experts of the imperial munitions board, the Nylins drilled minute holes in the casings of shells and then plug ged these up so as to pass inspection. When such shells would reach the firing line they would leave the guns all right, but would fall short of their intended range, 'thus, if used in a barrage fire, they would fall amid the entente allies soldiers and not among the enemy, the small hole allowing Just enough gas to escape to shorten the range. Sixth Blacklist Immunity. Washington, Nov. S. The firm of H. Kemper, Galveston, has been re moved from the British black list, said an official announcement today from the state department. No reason was given but it was understood the Brit ish government is satisfied the firm was not. dealing with the enemy. Of the thirty-six firms originally black listed six have been removed.

If a German submarine of the fight ing type acts as a convoy for the Deutschland on her passage home from these shores, it is said that this will create another submarine prob lem for this country to wrestle with. All of which suggests that there have been almost as many submarine prob lems to demand the attention of Uncle Bam as there are German submarines. And not a one of them seems to have been settled or solved yet in a satis factory manner. Maybe the Adamson law Isn't the gold brick or the boomerang that some people painted it to be, but it appears to be so vague that nobody knows just exactly how to construe It or- how to apply it, and this possibly means that it will be in the nature of a dead letter until the courts have in terpreted it. In the meantime, con gress may attempt to make it more in telligible. The United States has kept out of the war, but it is helping to pay the ex pense of that war thru contributions to relief funds and the high cost of living. Score one for the Mothers' club of a Wisconsin town. It has placed the ban on short skirts, silk stockings and icw-cut waists for the high school girls under its control. Without doubt, the stay-at-homes tomorrow, and they will be far more numerous than they should be, will be among those who will complain the loudest about the way the election re sulted. If the prevailing brand of weather could continue for a couple of weeks thruout the country, this year's count less flocks of pullets on the farms of the land would probably get suffi ciently busy to breach the big cold storage corner in eggs that has final ly been discovered; and the smashes that some of the egg speculators would receive would put them down and out and teach them one of the bitter les ions of speculation. And the consum ers might well be pardoned for gloat ing over the speculators' misfortunes, as" they undoubtedly would. However, such a turn of affairs Is too much for the consumers to expect or even hope for. Things seldom break for them In "any such fashion. a Probably the old-fashioned citizen "Who used to vote a straight party tick t all the way from the presidential lectors on down thru the list to town constable and dog-catcher will be ex ceedingly conspicuous for his absence at the polls tomorrow. Surely no fellow-sufferer will be in much .of a mood to blame the Chi- agoan who has formally renounced his citizenship because of the annoy ance that has come to him by being flooded with campaign literature. Such protection has been thrown around what little game there is in Kansas by the game laws that about the only real use to which a hunting license can be put is to tack it up on A tree for a target to bang away at. "DELIGHTS OF FALL VACATIONS. Summer always will be the most popular vacation season, writes Kath leen Hills in Leslie's. The great ma jority either prefer to take their an nual outings at that time, or find It test suite! to their circumstances. W!-' vacations, at one time mere fads that only the wealthy could en joy, are now recognized institutions of modern life. People, like the birds, are fast becoming migrants as the seasons change, and each year finds a greater number sojourning in the milder climes of California and the south during the colder months, bu' these periodic travelers most always -will be found at the popular resorts where pleasure and gaiety abound. The fall has its own distinct charms that lay claim to one's attention as a vacation period. Its wealth of richly tinted foliage, its brilliant sunsets, in vigorating atmosphere, bright sun- shine, cool, health-giving nights are all restful to Jaded nerves and tired spirits. He who drives away dull care and rests when "the days are in the yellow leaf Is sure to be amply re paid. Only the true lover of nature takes his vacation In the fall and hies him to some quiet spot on a lake or river, and, deep in the woods, finds rest and relaxation after arduous work. Then Is no time to stick to the artificial pleasures of hotel or resort life. One wants to get out into the open in the bracing atmosphere and let nature work Its miracles while he tramps, rides, drives, hunts, fishes or golfs. To men the great lovers of the simple life fall seems to be par ticularly dedicated, and In that season man's two great primitive outdoor pastimes, fishing and hunting, are most attractive. "Women, too, are learning the real pleasures of a quiet "back to nature" vacation, and each year they are gaining in number as devotees of the rod and gun. CO-OPERATIVE STORES. While co-operative stores In the United States are relatively unsuccess ful as compared with typical co-opera tive stores In European countries, the lack of success is not due to the fail ure of the underlying principles of such enterprises to hold good In Amer ica, but to the business methods gen erally followed In such undertakings in this country. This conclusion has been reached as a result of a survey of sixty co-operative stores made by the office of mar kets and rural organization of the fed eral department of agriculture, ths findings of which are published In p. bulletin just Issued by the department. No. 394. In many American co-operative stores which have failed, mismanage ment, lack of co-operation, poor busi ness methods and lack of judgment tre responsible. The results of the survey indicated that the co-operative store has tended to bring about lower prices, smaller margins of profit, more efficient busi ness methods, and other practices beneficial to the farmer. Higher fig ures are quoted frequently for produce sold by farmers, in communities in which co-operative stores exist be cause of a stimulation of the local market. With the application of efficient business methods and the education of the farmer to a clear understanding of the functions of co-operative stores, say the authors of the bulletin in ques tion, American co-operative stores may be made successful. Instances are cited of unusual sav ings and large dividends to members of various associations. Such associations procure capable managers. It Is pointed out, by paying adequate salaries; take advantage of large scale purchasing and cash dis counts; maintain proper accounts and cost records; and watch stock turn overs. The co-operative store in general, as the bulletin insists, has very great pos sibilities in this country if the farmer can be made to understand this neces sary relation of efficiency to financial success. In some of the most successful eo. operative stores Investigated the con mon employment of many of the resi- dents of the community or their com mon n.embership In social, fraternal or religious associations was an 1m- portar' factor making for success. Laws granting special privileges and creating special safeguards for co operative associations now exist In thirty states. ROMANS AND III M AN S. The Rumans or Rumanians are proud to claim descent, in a more or less legitimate way, from the Roman legionaries who were stationed in their country, but they have yet to prove that they have Inherited along with their language any of the mili tary genius of the ancestors to whom they lay claim," says the Independent. "In fact, their present set-back is due to their direct violation of Roman precedent In two respects. When the Emperor Trajan undertook the same job the Rumans have now on their hands, that is, the conquest of Tran sylvania, he did not throw his troops recklessly across the mighty Danube on a pontoon bridge and so get them cut off like the Rumanian troops. No, he sent out In advance his best archi tect, Apollodorus, the same whose work the tourist still admires in Tra jan's Forum at Rome. Apollodorus built a strong stone bridge over the Danube and a good solid road leading to it, carrying the road along the perpendicular sides of the defile In a covered wooden gallery supported by beams inserted In holes in the cliffs. After all this was done Trajan sent the Roman soldiers into the enemy's country and they staved there on long that all the people got to call ing themselves Romans. The Rumans showed good judgment in taking the roads that Trajan constructed by the Iron Gate to Orsova and by the Red Tower Pass to Hermannstadt, but they neglected to guard what the Ro mans were especially careful to look out for, their lines of communication to the rear. Consequently they have lost 3,000 men in the west and 15,000 in the east. Silistria, recently cap tured by the Bulgars, was the ancient Reman fortress of Durostorum, was one of the outposts of the Empire, and, because of its strategic impor tance, garrisoned by Leglo I and Legio XI, the Italian and the Claudian Le gions. But their suppositious de scendants evacuated the stronghold without a struggle and when the Bul gars entered they found it deserted. Yet this old town has stood many stout sieges in the course of its long history, for it stands in the road of all who have tried to march to Constan tinople along the sea. The Inhabitants in the course of time had become ac customed to the sort of life now led at Rheims and Verdun s and whenever the bombardments grew too hot they simply took shelter in the municipal cyclone cellar, a subterranean cavern underneath the town large enough to hold them all. The Romans fixed the northern boundary of the empire on the line still marked by Trajan's Wall, the line followed by the railroad from Const an za to Bucharest. But the Rumans thought they knew better than their alleged ancestors so they advanced with their Russian allies some forty miles south to meet the Bulgars coming up thru the Do- brudja. Then the Bulgars beat them back, back to Trajan's Wall, which they would have known better than to leave if they had learned their Latin lesson. It is an old board on which this game of war is being played and the best moves are often those made by the master players of the past. Joffre checked and held the invad ers from Belgium just where Caesar did on the line of the Marne at Rheims. The old Roman fortress of Verdun still stands them off. It was by following the old Romar road Into the Balkans that the Teutonic hosts conquered Serbia, and wherever a modern general picks upon a good place for entrenchment the shovels of his soldiers are liable to uncover Ro man bricks and stones. Anybody can fight. Fuzzy-Wuzzy could break a British square. But when Kitchener invaded the Sudan with a railroad, Fuzzy-Wuzzy's day was done. The Romans fought with roads, bridges and entrenchments. They were the first to realize that war is simply a branch of engineering. What If Cae sar or Trajan had only had railroads and telephones? Or what if the Ru mans only had a Caesar or a Trajan?" Aunt Martha Intervenes. (By Flora A. Monty.) "And they do say they came on the same train together?" said Mrs. Prince excitedly, as she wiped her hands on her gingham apron. "Not but that Ray Palmer's done enough things in his life 10 make ue expect anything even if he is my own nephew but it does beat all his carryin's on and him engaged to that pretty little Madge Townes." "But what difference does it make, Mrs. Prince, if Angela did happen to come home at the same time he did, if he didn't know she was comin' queried Mrs. Thompson gently, as she hair ruee from the kitchen .chair. "Well, now, Maria Thompson! What difference would it make to you if your husband come all the way from Salem with Abby Norton? There! I guess you see it now! Well, it's even worse for Ray Palmer to come with that flirty Angela Grey prob'ly set tin" right beside her all the way, too. I know that boy and that girl. And even if he is my own nephew, I ain't goin' to let Madge break her heart over his goin's on!" I call that real good, now. You'll have to hustle, tho, if you keep Madge frrty hoorin' it- "Who's goin' to keep her from hear- in it, I'd like to know rejoined Mrs. prince. "Why, you just -said faltered her neighbor. "Said I wasn't goin' to have her break her heart over my worthless nephew, and no more I ain't. I'm goin' right over and tell her now, be- tore It s too late." "But, Mrs. Prince, what if that should break 'em up?" Mrs. Thomp son's mild blue eyes opened wide in amazement. "Let It! Better now! What's more. I'm goin' to tell Madge ever" last thing tay palmer ever done. And I'm goin" to tak pa and Annie along, too, 'cause they can back me up!" Mrs. Thompson flutteringly arose with, "Now, ain't you the limit al ways lookin' after others." "Well, when others need lookin' after, and ain't got the fool sense to do it themselves, I'm willin' to do my duty, however unpleasant it may be for me." Mrs. Prince followed her departing visitor to the kitchen door and admonished her as she passed down the path: "Now, don't you go and say anythin' to them, Maria Thompson. You know you never get things straight. You just let me tend to them folks, and I'll tend to 'em right." "Don't fret, Mrs. Prince. I ain't hankerin' to get mixed up in that af fair," called back Mrs. Thompson, closing her remark with a brisk slam of the gate. "H'm! It's 10 o'clock!" mused Mrs. Prince, as she turned back to her work. "Mebby I better go over to Towneses now, 'thout waitin' for pa and Annie. I can send them over after dinner." And, changing her soil ed apron for a stiffly starched clean one, she tramped away with the deter mination of a martyr to his country's Madge was trilling a rollicking song as her caller reached the back gate. Mrs. Prince sniffed. "Hump! She'll sing another tune when she hear? aDout Kay palmer." The sound of her footsteDs on the back porch brought Madge to the door witn a merry smile. "Oh, do come in. Aunt Martha!" she welcomed her. "I'm going to call you "aunt" now, for Rays says I'll have to after we are married, and I might as well get in practice now." The greeting was so winsome that for a moment the vigorous old lady was abashed. "Why, you look all tired ouV Madge went on. "Your face is as red as anything! No, I'm not going to let you even talk, yet," as Mrs. Prince attempted to take charge of the conversation. "You sit right down in that big, easy rocker, and use this fan. And I want you to try these doughnuts. They're honey doughnuts, like you make, you know. Ray copied that recipe for me. Do you remember him asking you how to make them one day last week? He says I've got to learn to cook like you. Of course, I know these aren't as good as those you make, but I'm hoping I'll learn. But Ray says I can't expect to acquire your skill in a few months." Mrs. Price unaccountably choked over a bite of one of the crisp crullers. "Why they're they're good. Madge." she finally managed. "I didn't know j EVENING j HEARD JjER HERE Topeka Women Listen to Speech Given in Chicago. Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blatch Oyer Long Distance 'Phone. HER APPEAL WAS FOB HUGHES "Wilson Kept Us Out of Suf frage" Was the Cry. Liberty for Women Was the Keynote of Her Speech. Suffrage workers from every sec tion of the state heard the long dis tance telephone appeal of Mrs. Har riet Stanton Blatch, from the Black stone hotel In Chicago, when she urged women in suffrage states to vote against re-election of President Wilson. The ceremonies in Topeka were held at the headquarters of the National Woman's Party, 904 Kansas avenue. Governor and Mrs. Arthur Capper were among prominent Kan sans who attended the ceremonies. In a speech in Chicago Sunday night Mrs. Blatch talked directly into a transmitter which carried her message to women in all suffrage states where women votes will be cast for president. The appeal was to defeat President Wilson "because he kept us out of suffrage." In Topeka, Mrs. Dan Case ment of Manhattan received the mes sage and transmitted the reply for the suffrage workers of Kansas. Women of the east, have courage," said Mrs. Casement. "The women of Kansas have heard your call and will stand by you. We will not return to power the man who has blocked the political freedom of American wo men." Heard by Several Cities. Mrs. Blatch talked into a telephone transmitter in the Blackstone theater, which was crowded, and her words were carried by long distance tele phone to audiences assembled in To peka, Denver, Colo., Phoenix, Ariz., Cheyenne, Wyo., Salt Lake City, Utah, Helena, Mont.. Boise, Idaho, Seattle, Wash., Portland, Ore., Reno, Nev., and San Francisco. Mrs. Blatch declared that the result of the election will be so close that every vote will count. The result will be decided by the suffrage vote, she believes, and the work that the women do for the Republican candidate. "Liberty for women will be won be cause it is just and because a full, complete and virile democracy includ ing all the people, men and women, is of such vital moment more import ant than any question of tariff or banking or of preparedness or labor," said Mrs. Blatch. "With realization, then, that the en franchisement of woman is a pressing world issue, we ask ourselves the prac tical question: Who is the chief enemy in our path? The Democratic' party is that enemy. "The Democratic party has declared for suffrage state by state. But what has this party and its leaders done to achieve a victory in any one state? Nothing. "We are holding President Wilson directly responsible for the attitude of the Democratic party toward the en franchisement of women because no president has ever been in more com plete control of the party than Wood row Wilson has." After Mrs. Blatch finished eleven of the suffrage states telephoned replies, promising unanimous support for her appeal. PAYS OFF KANTgUARD Paymaster Sets Record In Distribut ing $28,500 In 3 Hrs. 6 Min. Fort Riley, Kan., Nov. 6. Officers at the military post here said a new record was set today by Capt. Fred J. Herman, quartermaster, in paying off the fifty-three officers and 930 men of the Second infantry regiment Kansas National Guard, in two hours and six minutes. The amount paid was $28,500. Ray ever cared much about my cook in. He always ,TYes, he always was crazy about it," Madge interrupted. "I came over to talk about Ray," said Mrs. Price, with an effort to re call her old determination. "I thought you did, and I think it's so dear of you to do it. He told rr.e he was going to have you come. He said you could tell me how to get along with him better even than his own mother could, and that if any one could advise us how to be happy, you could." "He said that, did he?" was the wondering rejoinder. "Yes. He said he often did things that people couldn't understand, but that his Aunt Martha usually 'sensed' things right, and that If you and I to gether couldn't make a model hus band out of him it wasn't in any one's power to be one.. He says that com mon sense and love will shine up most of the dark spots in the world if peo ple will only let them. He stands up for his Aunt Martha and the things she does all the time. 'Aunt Martha's a great old sport,' he's told me time and again." "A sport!" was the startled exclama tion. "Yes. He said you were the 'best forgiver" he ever saw. Why. he told me about a dozen of little escapades that he had when he was a youngster. He said you always found out about them, and often paddle him good for them, but that you never told his mother. 'It's quite a trick to know when to use your tongue, Madge,' he said." "Yes yes, I guess it is," slowly acquiesced Mrs. Prince. Just then Mrs. Thompson ca.-.e hes itatingly up the path, carrying a bowl full of fresh raspberries. "I just brung 'em over. Madge. They'll taste real good in case you ain't feelin' well," she volunteered, anxiously. "Come right in, Mrs. Thompson. It was lovely of you to bring them. Peo ple always do such nice things for me. Why, I Just love every one. As to feeling well, I was -never better, and I guess those berries will taste delicious." "I hope so," was the nervous re sponse. "You here, Mrs. Prince? Mrs. Thompson s manner was a pain ful attempt to appear unconcerned. "Yes, I'm here, Maria. I come over to help Madge plan her wedding. She and Ray's goin' to be married real soon, and I'm goin' to help her get ready. There am t no sense of them puttln' it off any longer, with me to kinda' give 'em a lift thru the hard places."

CLAIMS SHAWNEE Head of the Local Democrat v Committee Says Wilson Will Carry County by 500. the ELECT G0UNTY OFFICERS Expects to Defeat Larimer and Robert Stone. Looks for an Eren Break on State Senator. That Wilson will carry Shawnee e ..nty by from 500 to 700 majority, was the claim made by Frank Whit ney, chairman nf th shm.. Democrat committee, at noon today. I have reports from rnriin4 men in thirty of the sixty-two pre 1.c.s in tne county." said Chairman Whitney. "If the rest of the county is of the same mind as the thfrt Tr.- cincts Wilson will carry the county by i0 (uu votes. There has been a remarkable swing to him in this county within the last two weeks. I did not believe it was possible for him to get a majority in Shawnee, that long ago." Chairman Whitney also reasserted his claim that W. E. Schlichter, Demo crat would defeat Hugh Larimer for sheriff. "I am positive of Schlichter's elec tion," he said. "I am also certain of the election of H. C. Stevens over Rob ert Stone in the Thirty-fifth repre sentative district. I don't believe therms is a single question about that fight." He also expressed confidence in the election of A. B. Jamison over L. H. Neiswender irr '.he Thirty-third dis trict. Neiswender is a candidate for re-election and until a week ago Jami son did not get into the campaign. Whitney claims an even break in the senatorial fight S. L. Courtney, Democrat, against W. F. Schoch. He makes the same claim for register of oeeds, where Edwin Wolff is a candi date against the present incumbent Ralph Squires. He gives the Demo crat candidate for clerk of the district court, W. F. Logan, a shade the better of it over Mary E. Chapin. Another office where Whitney's confidence reasserted itself is that of commissioner of the Third district. He declared positively that J. G. B. Piu ney would defeat H. W. McAfee, the Republican nominee. LARDNER CLAIMS ALL Iemocrafcic Chairman Even Ixxks for Lansdon's Election. In a final pre-election forecast, Hu bert Lardner, chairman of the Demo crat state committee, today filed on almost everything in sight. He claimed the state for Wilson by 11,000 to 12,000, claimed probable election of Lansdon over Governor Capper and thought the Democrats might defeat Congressman D. R. Anthony, with the remaining seven districts sarely Demo cratic. Lansdon's forecast- blankets the state. He expresses confidence that President Wilson will get the labor vote, the woman vote, the German vote, the farmer vote and something more than an even break of any other votes that may be cast Every rail road center in Kansas is claimed for the Democrats and Lansdon holds out hopes that the Democrats might cap ture Shawnee county. All of the seven districts outside the First is held as almost certain Demo crat territory by the Lansdon pro phecy. He also holds out hope that Dr. Eva Harding will draw a suffi cient vote from Congressman Anthony to permit Corwine, Democrat, to win in the first. Concluding three type written pages of claims, Chairman Lardner says: "The strength which W. C. Lansdon, candidate for governor, has developed within the last two weeks has sur prised even his most ardent support ers. There is a strong possibility, due to the farmers and labor vote com bined, that he will succeed Arthur Capper as governor." TO REOPEN' BIG CASES V.

III., Nov. "For the life of me I cannot see where Wilson will draw a heavy vote except south of the Mason and Dixon line," said "Uncle Joe" Cannon today. "Young voters may be misled, may follow after strange gods, but the older men real ize that Democracy means panic and that this country would today be in the midst of the worst panic it has ever known but for the European war. "Not only in this district, but I be lieve thruout the entire country voters will do the sane thing, the sensible thing cast their ballots for the Re publican ticket and protection. I pre dict Republican victory all along the Una." CAPPER-HCGHES. Republicans, and especially pro gressive Republicans owe to Gov ernor Hughes the most cordial sup port. He has been the Kansas can didate for president. Kansas has indeed been a Hughes state, and at the conventions last summer no other name was seriously thought of by Kansas Republicans for this important leadership this year. At Chicago, Kansas was almost unan imous in its preference for Gover nor Hughes to lead the campaign. The splendid constructive record of Charles E. Hughes in every posi tion he has been called upon to fill has proved Mm a man of broad, sympathetic humane, progressive American statesmanship. He rep resents in his beliefs and in his public service the Ideals that "aave alwavs appealed to the Kansas heart. He is an example of the fin est tvpe of American publio man, and it is a privilege for us to rally for his election our full support. I wish to urge i-11 my friends in Kansas to give to Governor Hughes their votes and a great I'ansas ma jority on Tuesday. ARTHUR CAPPER. RESULTIN2 HOURS National and State Count by 9 O'clock Tuesday. City Clerk Covell Looks for Early Returns Here. Two hours after the polls close to morrow night the local result of the election will be known in Topeka so far as the national and state ticket i concerned. Such is the opinion of Ktta Covell, city clerk and secretary of the city election supervisors. The polls will open at o clock in tni morning and close at 7 o'clock in the evening. Miss Covell bases her prediction on the fact that the double election board begins work four hours after the polls open. Under the law this board must count the votes on the national and state tickets until the polls close when the work on the county ticket begins. "If the second board works as fast as we believe It will," said Miss Covell, "the total on national and state tickets will be known two hours after the polls close." There are only three precincts1 In the city that will not have a double election board, first precinct of the First ward, first precinct of the Second ward and seventh precinct of the Sec ond ward. Practically all voting places will be located at the same street numbers tomorrow as at the last election. Following is a list of polling places and their location: Where to Vote.

Federal Attorneys finite in Na-tion-Wide Campaign. THREATENS DIRE PENALTIES Coal Barons in Fact to Main tain Higher Price of Fuel. High Cost of Living Strikes at Economic Heart of Nation. Washington, Nov. 6. Federal dis ti" t attorneys thruout the United States today tightened the official nation-wide investigation of fod prices announced yesterday by Attorney Gen eral Gregory. Sufficient evidence has been accum ulated already by district attorneys and department of justice Investiga tors to warrant the declaration that the present increase in the necessi ties of life is "abnormal and suspi cious." In an official statement the attorney general today declared this to be true. 'Wherever such increase is found to be due to conspiracy or other un lawful action," he said, "the depart ment will invoke against the offend ers the severest penalties which the law provides. "Bread, milk and coal Increases, it was said at the department, are the three principal objective points of the investigation, itise in tnese communi ties absolute necessities of life it was pointed out, strike right to the economic nean oi tne nation. "If indemnity were obtained in any of these lines, it would have a whole some effect on the producers in gen eral It is believed." Particularly In the coal situation do department officials feel they will be able to make out a good case. Facts have been uncovered, they report, which indicate a conspiracy by coal operators and the railroads to force up the price of fuel. Federal investi gators are said to be unwilling to ac cept the railroads excuse of insuffi cient cars to handle the c -al as ex plaining the shortage.

TOPEKA presidential candidates are struggling for supremacy, 68 men are seeking election to the United States senate in a vote setting race of scarcely less im portance. There are 35 vacancies to be filled in the upper house of the na tional legislature. Regardless of which side is successful in the presi dential race, they must elect senators to hold majority in the upper house, if they expect to put thru their legis lation. The Democrats are now In the majority. The G. O. P. has set out to elect ten Republican senators out of the 35 to be chosen, and Republican chieftains tomorrow will scan with considerable anxiety the popular chief considerable anxiety the popular vote for senator in the 33 states where the people are expressing their will on these candidates. Next to the senatorial race in im portance, comes the voting for con gressional nominees. There are 436 members of the low er house to be elected, not counting territorial delegates. The present house of representatives shows a working majority for the Democrats of 23 votes, counting 197 Republicans, Progressives, 1 Independent and 1 Socialist as the minority, against 229 Democrats. Paramount Issues of Both Sides. Republicans hope to sweep this ma jority into the discard. Briefly summarized, the two great parties, wil stand tomorrow for these great issues and in this list are given only the outstanding issues: DEMOCRATS: "Wilson kept us out of war."' A vote for Republicans is a vote for war. Wilson stands for peace with honor and prosperity. The tariff for revenue policy has proved its entire workableness. REPUBLICANS: Weakness of the administration's Mexican policy. Warning of the chaos which will come after the European war, if the Democratic tariff is maintained and Europe dumps her goods nere In the race for commercial supremacy. "False prosperity" due to the Eu ropean war. The "surrender to force" indicated in passage of the Adamson eight-hour railroad bill. Broken promises by democracy as to protection of American citizens abroad; reduction of the cost of liv ing; and as to economy and efficiency. Swing Progressive Vote. Of most importance, in the minds of the leaders of the two great parties, is the swing which the Progressive vote of four years ago will take tomorrow. Of the trifle under 16,000,000 of popular votes cast in 1912, nearly 5, 000,000 were for Roosevelt and John son, running on the "third ticRet" un der the Progressive emblem. That five million of votes, delivered in one block, would be sufficient, it is con ceded, to elect either Wilson or Hughes. j But leaders on both -sides today pointed out that the defections of 1912 were from both parties and in the four years which have passed away many of that five million have re-aligned themselves. The Progressive split in June of this year, when Roosevelt sought to swing endorsement of the party he led in 1912 to Hughes, has brought claims from both Republicans and Democrats that the major part of the five million votes will be with them tomorrow. Many prominent Pro gressive leaders have endorsed Wil son; probably a slightly larger num ber have endorsed Hughes. How the 1 rank and file will vote is likely to de termine the election. Labor and Hyphenate Vote. The five million of Progressives is one "block" vote which has been sought after assiduously by both par ties. There are two other blocks for which there has been considerable angling the labor and the hyphenate vote. Democracy expects the labor vote to be solidly lined up for Wilson and Democratic policies mainly because of President Wilson's folution, thru the Adamson law, of the threatened railroad strike. President Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, is actively supporting the present ad ministration. Democratic leaders also think their prese it slogan of prosper ity will influence workingmen to vote for Wilson and Marshall. On the other hand. Republican lead ers are confident Candidate Hughes's assault on the Adamson bill as a "sur render to force" and an abandonment of the collective principle of bareain- ing for which labor has so long fought, will make labor vote for the Repub- lican principles. j G. O. P. managers also think a i powerful impression has been made in j the "false prosperity" revelations which Republican orators have so vig orously pounded, borne. As to the "hyphen vote Democrat ic leaders have sought to make cam paign material out of the outspoken support by several "hyphenate" lead ers of the Republican candidates. Re publican managers have steadfastly maintained complete ignorance of the attitude of the hyphenates and have flatly denied any agreement of anv kind whatsoever with any faction or group oi naiurauzea Americans. Woman Vote an Fnlma. One other feature of interest in the voting tomorrow will bi the part which will be played by women vot ers. In at least one state the women havo an ouoortunitv .o decide the electoral vote of that state. In Illinois there 'are approximately 800,000 women reg istered and ready to- vote for the first time on a presidential and vice presi dential candidate. In Montana a woman is running on the Republican ticket for congress. In Washington and Oregon votes of feminine ballot ers may have a direct bearing on the way the states throw their electoral figures. GET JAPANESE PAPER Nipponese Mills Will Help Relieve Shortage in Cnited States. Chicago, 111.. Nov. S.

"CHI" BETTING HEAVY More Than Million Waged on Election in Windy City. Chicago, lit, Nov. 6.

The south eastern part of the 'solid sooth" is complete and absolutely and finally for Woodrow Wilson. So complete is the feeling for the Democratic admin istration in the section of which At lanta is the hub, that there has been very little interest in the election since the primaries named the majority party's candidates. Southeast below Mason's and Dix on's line has been untouched by Re publican missionaries for the most part, since the seekers after Repub lican convention votes tourned its countries. There are very few Repub lican candidates for senatorial, con gressional, state or city offices an other evidence of the abandonment to Democracy of this part of the south by Republican campaign managers. Four years ago, Theodore Roosevelt sought votes here in vain. G. O. P. Candidates Scarce There, In Alabama, there are four Repub lican congressional candidates out of fourteen. There are four out of wight in Florida, three cut of fifteen in Georgia: one "protectionist" in seven congressional candidates in Louisiana; no Republicans in Mississippi; ten out of twenty of the candidates in North Carolina; none in South Carolina. On the other hand, there are no Democratic opponents to two Repub lican aspirants for congress in Ten nessee's rock ribbed mountain strong holds.

CONVENTION IN TOPEKA Blacksmiths, Horsesboers and Wagon makers Here November 15. The Blacksmiths, Horseshoers and Wagon makers' association of Kansas, will meet in annual convention in Representative hall, Wednesday, Nov ember 15. Edward Bohrer, of Lyons, president, is expected to call the mem bers to order sometime between 9 and 10 o'clock. One of the most import ant questions to be decided is that of a change in name of the association. President Bohrer has recommended that "The Vulcans of Kansas" be adopted and it is probable that he will have the support of the convention in this matter. L. N. Rehkopf. who is handling the local end of the preparations, declares the program to be still incomplete. It will be announced in full a dcy or two previous to the first session, it is planned, however, to have Jay House, mayor, deliver an address of welcome to Topeka and it is thought that the response will be made by John I. Saunders of Cheney. "We are looking for an attendance of between 250 and 300 out of town people," says Mr. Rehkopf. "The let ters received from wholesale houses indicate that one or two men will ie sent from each. Many of the dele gates will come from as far away as New York and Wisconsin. "pn the evening of the fifteenth, they will be initiated into Ake-Pot Ster-Boo. About twenty-one Topeka horseshoers have agreed to help out the team in the initiation. On the evening of the sixteenth, there will be a special show for the delegates at a local theater.

Mr. Crockett declined to discuss the matter today, altho he did not deny the negotiations. "There is positively nothing to say now," he sand. "If anything be done the public will find it out in plenty of time.' The Crockett store has occupied the two floors of the present building for several years. The Woolworth store has been hemmed in on both sides. It lacks much of having the floor space the Woolworth stores have in most towns the size of Topeka. Says Americans Escaped. El Paso, Nov. 6.

Five members of the executive com mittee -f the Topeka Industrial coun cil called at the office of the Consum ers' Light, Heat Power company, at 13:30 o'clock today, and offered to pay their October gas bills at the 28-cent rate. The cashier refused to accept the money or receipt the bills. This Is the first step of the Industrial coun cil in its fight to obtain a blanket in junction against the collection of the 50-cent gas rate. "Nothin' doing," said the cashier, a he smiled and pushed the money tendered him back to the trade union men. Frank B. Brown, president of the i council, had difficulty in discovering the amount of his bill at the 28-cent rate. He finally called a bookkeeper and had her figure up his bill at the 28-cent rate. John K. Addington, at torney for the union men, pushed Brown up to the window last. May Shut Off Gas. '"Now," began Brown, after the cashier refused his money, "under the laws of Kansas you are overcharging us." "Keep still, Frank," someone said, "that's only the cashier." "Well, let's go in and find the head cheese," said Brown. "I want to fim? out if they're going to cut off the gas." ,L. G. Treleaven, receiver for the company, was not in the office. It was determined to make another call at his office some time during the day. 'It would be unfair to the union rrven to state in advance what I will tell them," said Mr. Treleaven when asked if the gas company would shut off the supply of gas of the five mem bers of the council. J. O. Stevic, Paul Montgomery, William Kerle, Fred Felton and Frank B. Brown. Follows Long Parley. The initial step of the union men was taken following a long parley in front of the gas company office. Word received from the utilities commission by Frank B. r.rown indicated that the purchase of the Kansas Natu-al by the Doherty interests bid fair to become a reality. "It wouldn't pay us to go ahead with this fight and spend $300,," uaid Brown, "and then learn that the Do herty people have purpchased the company and that we are going to get the 28-cent rate. It would be cheaper to pay the 50 cents." Wait for a Week. J3ut upon being assured that the taking of the initial step would not plunge the council into the immediate expenditure of the $300 not until the lawyers begin drafting legal papers it -was decided to proffer the payment and be ready for a fight should the big deal fail to materialize. Legal pro ceedings will not be taken until the latter part of the week when it is hoped some definite action will be tak en in consummating the sale of the Kansas Natural holdings to the Do herty interests. The Industrial Council, ho wever, in tends to hold a mass meeting at 8 o'clock at the city auditorium Wednes day evening. The plan to obtain an Injunction, should the big deal fail, will be discussed and an effort will be made to raise sufficient funds to bear the burden of expense if it be decided to go on with the fight for an injunc tion. .The Consumers Light, Heat Power company contemplates taking no action against the union men for several days, if at all, according to an announcement made late this after noon by L. G. Treleaven, receiver. "There is no use crossing a bridge until ye come to it," said Mr. Tre leaven. "No one is forced to pay for the first ten days and even after that several days elapse before the con sumers receive the notice and the gas is shut off. So I can see no use in making any definite announcement at this time." MANY HEARD WISE New Bishop Coadjutor of Episcopal Church Preached Sunday. The Rt. Rev. James Wise, newly elected bishop coadjutor of the Prot estant Episcopal diocese of Kansas, preached the sermon at Grace Cathe dral, Sunday at the morning service. He preached to a large audit nee. The text was Acts 2.6, 19th verse: "Whereupon, O King Agrippa, I was not obedient unto the heavenly vision." The chief thought of the sermon was that many of the epoch making events of sacred and secular history, have been brought about by noble dreamers, who had both the courage and the anility to obey the commands of the Inner voice. Bishop Wise has an imposing and impressive personality, and the dra matic fire and eloquence of hii preach ing i.idicates that the diocese of Kan sas has acquired a man who will be a positive, vital force for the advance ment of its spiritual and temporal af fairs. He returned to St. Louis Sunday aft ernoon, and it has not yet been defi nitely decided when he will take up his work in the diocese of Kansas.

Those subject to sick headaches, backache, bilious attacks, constipation or any form of stomach trouble, are urged to get a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store and begin enjoying this morning inside-bath. It ia said that men and women who try this become enthu siastic and keep it up daily. It is a splendid health measure for it is more important to keep clean and pure on the inside than on the outside, because the skin pores do not absorb impuri ties into the blood, causing disease, while the bowel pores do. The principle of bathing inside is not new, as millions of people practice it. Just as hot water and soap cleanse, purify and freshen the skin, so hot water and a easpoonful of limestone phophate act on he stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Limestone phos phate is an inexpensive white powder and almost tasteless. Advertisement. N otice to Patrons Through car service to Oakland and the cemetery will start tomorrow morning, Nov. 7.

HAS GREAT CHANCE TO HUMBLE THE HUSKERS Victory Oyer Oklahoma Sends Jay hawker Stock Soaring Nebraska Jleported Slipping. Can it be possible that a Kansas University football team really has a good chance to defeat an eleven representing the University of Nebraska Can it be possible after going more than four years without having once tasted the black bread that the downtrodden must eat without having so much as met an opponent of equal strength that the mighty Cornhuskers are shortly to be humbled and that the honor of bringing them to earth again is to fall to a Sunflower eleven As strange as it may seem gridiron dopesters who are known to be impartial and who usually hit the nail pretty squarely on the head are of the opinion that K. U. will have a better chance of winning from Nebraska when the two teams meet in Lincoln on the 18th of the month than a Lawrence team has had in years. Of course the K. U. dope is largely based on the results of laat week's games in which the Cornhuskers nosed out a victory over Ames by the narrow margin of three points, while the Jay hawkera were completely outplaying the Oklahomans, winning 21 to 13. It seems to be the general opinion that the Nebraskans are slipping badly while the Kansans are rapidly find ing themselves and building up a formidable machine and that by next Saturday week the odds will be in fa vor of Kansas. Jay hankers Wake Up. There is no doubt but that the Jay hawkers have made a great deal of progress since they were defeated by Ames early in the season 13 to 0. Many will tell you that they are at least 50 per cent stronger than they were then, and if such is the case they urely will have a glorious opportunity unless the Huskers play better ball than they did against Ames last Satur day. According to reports from Lin coln, the Iowans completely outplayed the Nebraskans and only the breaks of the game kept them from scoring. Certainly it was a lucky boot that Corey made when he scored a field goal from the 50-yard line, and this field goal decided the contest. On the other hand, the Kansans completely outplayed Oklahoma, de feating the Sooners for the first time since 1910, and showing an aggress iveness and a punch that they had not shown in any previous games this season. With the score tied at the begin ning of the second half. Beau Olcott'e men found themselves !n the third quarter and put across two touch oowns and only once more did they allow the Sooners to count. K. IT. Stock Soars. Xot only do the K. U. dopesters argue that their team will have an excellent chance to defeat Nebraska, but they now argue that their victory over the Sooners insures them a vic tory over Washburn next Saturday and gives them an even break on the clash with Missouri which will be the final game of the season. I Missouri last week had as narrow an escape as Nebraska did and the Tigers won from the Texas Longhorns by the same score. 3 to 0. Interest In all the Valley conference camps this week will center in the Missouri-Kansas Aggie clash at Manhattan, and if the Aggie win K. U. will do little worrying about the Tigers and will be able to concentrate all energies on the Nebraska battle. Few dopesters are conceding Wash burn a chance to slip over a surprise Cn the Jayhawkers next Saturday, but the fact that the Ichabods always figh,t harder against Kansas than against any other school, that Doctor Ken nedy is reported to have something up his sleeve to he sprung on the Law rence lads and the desire of the Jay hawkers to pave their men as much flJ possible for Nebraska insures a game that will be well worth watch ing.

A RECORD CROWD The Washburn -K. U. Game Is Expected to Draw Big. Many Good Contests Are on the Week's Booking. For the first time since the opening oi the season this week there will be more important football games in Kansas on Saturday than on Friday. I.i fact, the only three .amea that will attract anything like state wide interest are all booked for the after noon that is followed by "bath night." The Missouri-Kansas Aggie game at Manhattan is the only one that has any bearing on conference results, but vying with it for prestige are the K. U.-Washburn clash in Topeka Satur day and the Haskell-Emporia Normal game at Lawrence. K. U.-Washbuni Clash. The K. U.-Washburn game .s ex pected to bring out the largest local football crowd in years and predictions are being made that the Ichabods wiil realize more fully than ever before the necessity for increasing the accom modations for visitors at the park. Both Washburn and K. U. rooters will turn out in large numbers, and many of the teachers who are here for the big convention will stay over especial ly to witness the contest. The Haskell Indians are doped to defeat the Emporia Normals, but if the State Teachers play rs hard a game and as heady a game as they did last week they ought to make it mighty interesting for the Redskins. The big game in the east this week is the meeting of Harvard and Prince ton at Cambridge, and the intersec tional clash that stand out most prom inently is the Michigan-Cornell en gagement. The Week's Games. The important games of the week are: Friday Cooper against C. of E. at Emporia; Washburn Freshmen against Midland at Atchison; Hays Norm-U against Pittsburg Normal at Warrens burg, Mo.; Fairmount against Bethany at Lindsborg. Saturday K. U. against Washburn at Topeka: Missouri against K. S. A. C. at Manhattan; Emporia Normal against Haskell at Lawrence: Baker against Ottawa at Ottawa: Friends U. against Creighton U. at Omaha: Ames against Morningside at Ames; Wash ington against Knox college at St. Louis: Ohio State against Indiana at Columbus: Iowa against Northwestern at Northwestern: Harvard against Princeton at Cambridge: Michigan against Cornell at Tthaca: Yale against Brown at New Haven: U. of Pitt, against W. and J. at Tittsburg.

"Whenever a team goes on a trip, the manager should have every little detail arranged beforehand sk that there will be no hitch. Often when a schoolboy team starts out on a trip, several of the men miss the train or else they forget some of their equip men or something of that port. All these difficulties could have been pre vented if a good, live manager had charge of the trip. There is a great chance for develop ment in the managerial end of school boy football teams and also in many of the small colleges. A football manager who has won his place by competition and hard work should be given his letter the same as any of the players. The schoolboy who does not play the game should realize that to be a good manager is an honor and is also a great benefit to the boy if he has been ahe to go thru a com petition or to get a thoro training as to his duties. Good captains and managers are certainly rare in schoolboy football, but with the constant development of the game from a playing standpoint the executive end should be developed also in years to come. (Copyright, Wheeler Syndicate.) New York, Nov. 6. With records behind them that denote power in every quarter, the East's biggest foot ball teams began today the most im portant practice of the season prep aration for the games which will de cide who is to wear the crown of 1916 champion. Harvard, Tale, Princeton and the Army stand out in their class. Army's feat in whipping Notre Dame to a standstill and the fact that Harvard did as well against "Virginia as Tale, are things that cannot be overlooked. Navy's defeat by Washington and L-ee, a team which had been beaten by the Army, will figure large in the final reckoning. This week Harvard and Princeton will clash. Harvard is a favorite, but Princeton has played Just hard enough to win its biggest games of the eeason and every one admits that a powerful team represents old Nassau this year. Tow He Is the Gridiron Hero of His alive State. FCLTZ PRESSES ISSUE. Players Fraternity Head Insists Mag nates Mast Give Men Square Deal. New York, Nov. 6. That the Base ball Players fraternity is determined to carry to a finish its demand for a revision of the "injury clause' in cer tain of the players' contracts, is in dicated in a statement made public by President David L. Fultz of the fraternity. The statement says, in part: "Mr. Johnson is reported to have said in a recent interview, that the fraternity petition accused certain American league clubs of suspending injured players without pay. Either Mr. Johnson has been misquoted or he is evading the issue. We made no such accusation. In our brief we stat ed that certain contracts gave the owners the riirht to so misuse players if they saw fit. and asked that such clause be removed." BY FRANK G. MEXKE.

And patching human frames, ltasembliTig wreoknge from "Those fearful football games." Berry's Redemption. A year or so ago, Howard Berry, now the hero of Pennsy, was shooed from the gridiron. It was hinted at the time that he was something of a quitter that he had a bit of ochre in his system. When the call to arms came last summer. Berry went to the Mexican border with the troops and got back only a few weeks ago. When he pre sented himself for football practice to Bob Folwell, he was in fine condition. And Bob at once jammed him into the Pennsy lineup in the game against Penn State. "That guy'll lay down on you," the knocking element told Folwell. But the coach heeded them not. He gave Berry a chance, and his deeds of that day caused his praises to be chanted again and again thruout the land. Almost alone and unaided he pounded Penn State into submission. He played with a fierceness and cour age rarely if ever equaled on a football field. He crashed into the big Penn State line time and again and ripped it to shreds. He circled the ends at will and made tackles that were death-defying. In that game. Berry scored one touchdown and booted a brace of field goals. He was in every play the star of every play until battered almost to a coma he had to be carried from the field. And even then this youth, once branded as a "coward," fought to get back into the game. Crippled Athletic Stars. The loss of an arm or leg doesn't seem to be much of a handicap to athletes who have within them game ness, courage and the fighting spirit. Louis Martucci, who lost an arm in childhood, ranks today as one of the best golfers in America, A one armed chap named Neely is varsity guard for Dartmouth. And football, you know, is a game where it al ways has been figured that both arms were absolutely essential for tackling purposes. Out in Ohio there was a youngster who lost a leg some years ago and afterward took rank as one of the best basketball players in his vicinity. Ernest Jones, once a star golfer in England, went to war and came back minus a leg. So handicapped, he re sumed golf and is playing the game with almost all the skill that he showed earlier. On the Pacific coast there's a youngster who lost a hand some years ago and then took up prize fighting. He is coming to the front rapidly. Mordecai Brown never was a real pitcher until after he lost parts of some fingers on his pitching hand. Noodles and Nuggets riff from the Dodo Pot 9y ciug. It seems that there is no end of the Ne braska luck. Any team that can win a game from the 50 yard line certainly has horseshoes. Saturday's games demonstrated that foot ball is about as uncertain and as unUope able as a presidential election. The big surprise was the -10 to 10 victory of the Army over Notre Dame. Everybody picked this for a close battle and many predicted that the Catholics would win. Another surprise was the close game lit tle Colgate played YaJe. the Eli having to come from behind to win 7 to 3 after Clo gate had completely outplayed tUem. In the "Big Nine" conference there were so many surprises that the dope pot has been turned upside down and now the un heard of has come to pans with Ohio State and Northwestern the only remaining con tenders for the conference honors. Ohio State remained in the rnnning by defeating Wisconsin 14 to 13. and North western licked Indiana 7 to 0. while Minne sota, the real favo-Ue in the race, was de feated by the Illinois cripples 14 to 7. Kansas university seems to hare another ludding star in Shinn who made a good showing in the game against the Sooners. Shinn enabled the Jayhawkers to give Ok lahoma some of her own aerial medicine. Speaking of surprises, the Topeka high school victory over the St. Joe "Beef Trust" was not expected bv mnny local dopesters as it certainly was not contem plated by the visitors. Several Kansas elevens will hare an off week this week and some will plnv mid week games next week. Nebraska uni versity also has a lay off, having uo g.-m s until the clash with K. U. aud tue ISth. At the beginning of the second half of the St-Misrys-Kansas Weslevan game Kelly, of t!e Catholics, took the ball on the kick off and raced SO vards for a touchdown. L.ane sprinted 00 yards across the last goal line a few minutes later. These are two of the longest runs made by a conference team this season. The marked contrast to the new vojrae ot the Kmporla Normal school in which girl students are not permitted to ve!l at ath letic contests, the girl students at the Havs Normal have organized a rooters club un der the name of the "Singing Sixtv."

Topeka High School Humbled Willard May 3Ieet Winner of Heavy St. Joe Team. I Levinsky-Morris Bout. Locals Played Like Wildcats on the Defensive. Gabe Kaufman Anxious to Pro mote Championship Battle. The St. Joe team had the weieht. but lacking- knowledge of the gam; and a "pinch punch" they were hum- j bled by Coach Bearg's featherweight i proteges to the tune of 14 to 12 Sat- i urday afternoon. Altho Harshbarger made consistent gains when his serv- j ices were employed and some occa- sional good runs were made by Lin- dell, Kouns, Smiley and Billings, the offensive of Topeka was nothing for- midable. Both Topeka's touchdowns were the result of luck. But defen- sively the local high school men were j a bunch of wildcats. Time and again i J. Jones, A. Jones, Rogers, Light or i other linemen pierced the heavy St. Joe line to snag the runners before they could get started. And barring their work in the second quarter when St. Joe made a touchdown by a series of passes, the high school backfield men broke up the St. Joe passing which was the best bet the visitors had. The First Touchdown. The first touchdown for Topeka came in the first four minutes of play. St. Joe kicked and J. Jones returned to midfield, where unable to gain the locals punted. Lindell kicked from I midfield to the five yard line where j the St. Joe man fumbled and Captain j McKibben, racing up the back like a jackrabbit, fell on the ball on the three yard line. A buck by Harsh barger made the first score. Rogers kicked goal. I St. Joe counted in the second period. Gaining the ball in midfield they marched to the twenty yard line by a long end run by Sallars-and a forward pass. On the twenty yard line a dou- i ble pass, Symons to Sallars to Sitton, i took the ball across for the only earned touchdown of the game. On j the kick out St. Joe missed and the J score was Topeka 7, St. Joe 6. Before the end of the half luck again broke for Topeka when J. Jones broke thru and blocked a punt and scooping up the ball crossed the goal line. Again Rogers kicked goal. The i third quarter was scoreless with To- j peka holding the playing to St. Joe's territory exclusively. I The Final Quarter. In the fourth quarter St. Joe waked up and duplicated Topeka's feat of blocking a punt. The ball rolled back of the goal line and Slater, St. Joe lineman, fell on it. Again the visitors failed to kick goal. The rest of the j quarter St. Joe tried desperately to score but lacked the necessary punch. They forced the playing to Topeka territory during most of the period but were unable to count. Altho Topeka's ground gaining capabilities were not much in evidence, there was stellar playing in other de- j partments. Both Billings and Lindell.: averaged forty yards in their kicking. Diminutive Archie Jones, son of L. M. j Jones, succeeded in stopping play after j play of St. Joe's, before they could get away. Harshbarger seemed the only reliable ground gainer for To peka. Sallars of St. Joe did most of the advancing the ball for the Mis souri tribe, and appears one of the best high school backfield men here this season. The lineup: St. Joseph. Position. Topeka.

Even before the Morris-Levinsky scramble billed for Convention hall the night of November 16 Kansas City boxing fans may be looking forward to a bat tle for the heavyweight championship. Gabe Kaufman, looking into the fu ture and desiring to be the first on the ground for a happening that is in evitable, has sent the following wire to Tom Jones, Willard's manager: Tom Jones, care Sells-Floto Shows, Lockhardt, Texas: Battling Levinsky meets Carl Morris here November 16, fifteen rounds to a decision. Am ready to meet any fair terms commensurate with risking of Willard s title to meet winner,, same number of rounds to a decision, date and referee to be agreed upon soon as match is closed. Kansas City wants championship .match. Answer. GABE KAUFMAN, Convention Hall. So Levinsky and Morris will clash in the big hall on the appointed night, knowing full well that the man who leaves the ring as victor will get a chance to fight for the highest honors in pugilism, the heavyweight cham pionship. To Be Big Battle. The coming battle here Is aVracting nation-wide attention. The following is from the typewriter of Walter St. Dennis, sporting editor of the New York Globe, and one of the foremost authorities in New York. The article appeared In the Globe a week ago: Altho Battling Levinsky beat Jack Dillon decisively the other night, the same people who a short time ago were declaring the Indianapolis man to be the logical candidate for a bout with Champion Jess Willard are not inclined to admit that the battler has a chance with the Havana hero. Why such a condition should prevail is hard to understand, since Levinsky is a much bigger man both in weight and height than is Dillon. In point of cleverness he is surely Dillon's master. Levinsky doesn't intend tossing him self upon the public and making him self a general nuisance by dogging Willard for a match. Since he has been under Dan Morgan's management he has done everything in a business like way. In going after Willard. which he is going to do, he is going to employ the same tactics.

New York, Nov. 6. Probably the most serenely confident man, political ly in New York is Charles E. Hughes. On the ground that he had his last say at the Madison Square garden demonstration Saturday night, the Re publican presidential candidate de clined to make any statements. He talked lreely with his friends, how ever, and was in better shape physi cally, in better spirits and had a more definite view of the result of Tuesday's election than at any time since the opening of his campaign. Those of the correspondents who had made the long coast to coast journey with him, were struck by this atmosphere of confidence and victory which perme ated the Hughes private apartments in the Hotel Astor. Mr. Hughes absolutely believes he will be elected president Tuesday. Loafed Sunday. When the candidate awoke at 10 o'clock Sunday morning with nothing to do for the first time since June exactly 21 weeks had elapsed nee a similar awakening the day following his nomination except that he then had all the labor of the campaign ahead of him. In the intervening per iod the candidate declared, the issues have unfolded in precisely the same manner which he had hoped for, right down to Saturday night's demonstra tion in his home state, which Mr. Hughes considers the climax of the entire campaign and the point where the rest can be left in the hands of the voters. Mr. Hughes declared today he was immensely 'pleased with the Saturday night parade as well as the meeting which followed. He regards them to gether as a remarkable manifestation of the sentiment which is sweeping the country. From his experience he knows what it means for men to give expression to their political views by marching in a drizzle of rain on a cold night thru the city streets. He was flattered by that and flattered by the 37 minutes of cheering which he re ceived upon his entrance inio the gar den. Awaits the Returns. His work done, he will now quietly await the action of the voters Tuesday. The candidate and Mrs. Hughes spent Sunday night with their grandchild ren. Later in the evening Htlghes had a walk. Today he was to have a drive and pay some calls, but was to engage in no political activity. Tuesday he will vote in a laundry in Eighth avenue near Forty-sixth street and in the evening, with his family and no one else around him, he will receive the returns in his private apartments in the Astor, into which two telegraph wires have been strung. MURDER AT WEDDING Thousand Dancers In Panic When Two Guests Are Shot Down. Chicagro, Nov. 6. Death lurked in the whirling wedding dance for an un bidden guest and his companion is wounded today from mysterious shots that threw a thousand dancers into a panic at a big Italian wedding here late yesterday. The assassin stepped to the front of the hall, called for two uninvited guests, Vito Mana and Donato Dl Rosa, and as they stepped forward shot them, killing Mana. A policeman present ordered the doors closed instantly but it is thought the murderer left by a fire escape. Ancient family feuds are supposed to have caused the shooting. HUGHES.

It is now being reloaded. Seventy five perspiring stevedores of darkest hue are pushing nickel and rubber into the yawning hatches of the under water packet. The master of the Deutschland and Germany's greatest war hero. Captain Paul Koenig, is smilingly silent when asked about the exact day and hour of his fading. He made an appointment for a man from New 'York to see him on an im portant matter, however, and when asked what would be the latest day for the man to keep the appointment, j he said Thursday.

My white dresses, linens and lace curtains are snowy white. I simply can't do with out Red Cross Ball Blue. You will Bet It? All right, I'll wai.." Adv BT GEORGE CREEL. (Written for the National Democratic Committee.) Prom the day that he took office, Woodrow Wilson has been confronted by a press of tremendous problems. The Taft administration was repudi ated by the people for its sins and failures, and it was with these sins and failures that Woodrow Wilson had to grapple. There were bad laws to wipe out, good laws to enforce, neces sary laws to pass, and the public serv ice to reorganize on the new basis of honesty and efficiency. To complicate these tasks came the European war, with its various appeals to the emotions of our mixed popula tion, 1th inevitable assault upon our traditional neutrality, and its frequent violations of international law by bel ligerents eager for every advantage. This is the domestic record of Wood row Wilson: tariff revision downward; the federal reserve act; the child la bor law; rural credits; workmen's compensation; the seamen's law; the Clayton anti-trust act; the shipping act; the good roads law; the eight hour day that averted a nation-wide strike; agricultural extension; federal employment bureau; the federal trade commission; the tariff commission; opening Alaska with government rail ways; the restoration of the navy to second place; the reorganization of regular army and the national guard; income, inheritance and munitions taxes to pay for preparedness. No president in history ever drove thru such a program of constructive legis lation! As for the international policies of Woodrow Wilson, they have given the United States peace with honor. Neu tral rights have been vindicated and world war averted. Justice, not greed, has governed our relations with Mexico. All has been done under stress of bitter attacks and incessant opposi tion. Organized greed and alien csm spiracies have made the president run a gauntlet of hate. In view of the record, is it too much to say that it is not Woodrow Wilson who is on trial, but the people of the United States? Vote for 1 1 r.juva naming Independent Candidate for Congress rr "3 -f i x -s The thinking people of Kansas are not being- influenced by the ready made opinion factories now in full swing in this country The tremendous increase in the inde pendent vote in this country will put the political parties on a strictly goods-deliver-dng basis Women are needed in both the state and the national legislature who will look after the interests of the people. Here in our own state where we hear so much of the graft and receiv ership fees of the Kansas Natural Gas Comany, we never hear a word of the graft that is going on in the school book business by our chief educators, yet the gas graft pales into insigni ficance as compared to the manner in which the people are looted in the purchase of text books. While the orphans were fed oleo margarine and the insane people were sleeping on the floors the Kansas leg islature spent its time voting to hike the salaries of the officials and clerks in the state house. There are many other instances like these which should be looked into by the thinking people of Kansas in state affairs as well a3 national. Dr. Harding stands for everything that is pure and wholesome in life as well as politics Having made her way in life by hard work, she favors every reform that will give the work ing man and woman a better chance in life Vote for Dr. Eva Harding America First and America Ef ficient, Hughes Slogan. BY GEORGE G. HILL. (Written for the Republican National Committee. In the brief articles which I have been permitted to write for your col umns, it has been my earnest endeav or to refrain from "throwing mud," from misstating a single lact, and from relying on glittering generalities in place of argument. I have tried to the best of my ability, within the brief space allowed me, to state my reasons for the faith that is in me, giving each day some concrete reason which should appeal to your readers as a ground for supporting Charles Evans Hughes. Silly and sweeping charges, such as that Mr. Hughes, who came into pub lic life because he broke up by means of the insurance investigation the un holy alliance between "big business" and politics, was the Wall street can didate, I have ignored. Contentions, unsupported by facts, that Hughes would get this country into war, or that he is supported by or has treated with a German-American alliance so closely approach an insult to the intel ligence of your readers that I have purposely ignored them. Everyone in this country knows that he is 100-per cent American, that he welcomes the support of all Americans, regardless of what may be the land of their na tivity or of their ancestry, and that when elected he will be president of the whole people. His motto is and will continue to be "America first and America efficient." Such baseless charges as that Mr. Hughes would repeal the income tax, the child labor bill, passed largely by Republican votes, the 8-hour legisla tion on the statutes practically all of which was placed there by the Repub licans and that Mr. Hughes would get the United States into war, I have treated as too obviously false to war rant lumbering your columns with de nials. Josephus Daniels I have pur posely ignored. It has seemed hardly manly to hit further a public official so positively and conclusively discred ited, and there has meen no doubt in my 'mind that the voters would re member that "a vote for Wilson is a vote for Daniels." I have simply en deavored to present to your readers concrete reasons why they should vote for Mr. Hughes. If I have suc ceeded my labor has been well repaid, and I desire to take this opportunity to thank the editor for the space he has so kindly placed at my disposal. BOTKIN AND THOMPSON Final Democratic Rally at Auditorium Saturday Night. William H. Thompson, United States senator, and J. D. Botkin, former war den of the state penitentiary, closed the campaign for the Democrats in To peka when they spoke to a crowd of 800 or 900 people in the auditorium. They furnished two hours of oratory and appealed for votes for Democrat candidates because "Wilson kept us out of war" with some nation which the speakers did not mention. In a forty minute talk, Botkin flayed the Capper administration. He espe cially criticised the governor for re moving him from the wardenship of the state prison and the subsequent appointment of J. K. Codding. Issir ance of a pardon to Alfretta Haggerty, a witness in the Botkin investigation, was ground for bitter indictment of the Capper rule. Both Botkin and Senator Thompson appealed for support of the Democrat president on the "no war" theory.

BENTO Republican Candidate for Congress N L A VOTE FOR BENTON MEANS a vote for Ameri canism; for protection to home and home industries; a better nation and a better state. It MEANS to supplant the politician in congress with a proved business man, who will help apply- business methods to the problems of public expenditures. Otis L. Benton Is and Has Been an Advocate of Rural Credit Legislation In a conversation with Mr. Benton re garding the subject of Rural Credits, he expressed himself positively in favor of such a measure, and said further: "Why, do you know it wa3 the Re publican party that made an exhaustive study pf the subject which is the basis for the present bill, and the Republican National Convention of 1912 declared in favor of the Rural Credit measure. "During my entire life in Northwest ern Kansas I have worked early and late to obtain cheaper money for this part of Kansas. Cheaper money means a higher price for land .which is of far more im portance to me as a large land owner, as well as to the other farmers of the dis trict, than anything else. "I shall work for all beneficial legis lation to this end. The false and garbled statements being spread over this dis trict by unscrupulous politicians will not fool the voters into believing that I am opposed to Rural Credit Legislation." Oberlin Times. 3 5 4f A VOTE FOR BENTON MEANS a Vote for Kansas and particularly the Sixth District of Kansas. Otis L. Benton is a man who accomplishes results while others talk. He is a man to serve his constit uency with credit and with honor, and make a name for himself and for the state and district which electa him. Connelly Attempts to Prejudice the Voters By the way, don't the voters think Mr. Con nelly pretty hard up for campaign material when he resorts to the "extravagant use of money" by having expensive plate matter pre pared with his picture, to publish the statement that Mr. Benton stands well even outside the Sixth Congrssional District In addition to the generous and universal indorsement that Mr. Benton is receiving from all c!asses of people at home, a Missouri banker also thinks well of Mr. Benton as congressional timber. What a ter rible charge. The time WAS when a banker's indorsement would prejudice the voters, and Mr. Connelly is resorting to thi3 old stuff. But when the farmers and everybody else are riding in automobiles, many owning bank stock and all getting rich by the sale of our livestock and ag ricultural products at WAR PRICES, no one will be fooled by such methods. The question naturally arises, has Connelly ever done any thing at home or abroad to receive such praise? Mr. Connelly has been in Congress four years. Will he or his friends name one bill that he ever even offered, to say nothing about it becoming a law, while he has been Congressman, for the benefit of a single man, woman or child of the Sixth Congressional District of Kansas? His salary during the four years, say nothing about his mileage and extras, will amount to over $30,000, and what has he ever done to earn the money Oberlin Times. (Political Advertisement)
