Foch Pauses, Awaiting Further Action by Reichswehr. ALLIES TO REMAIN NEUTRAL United States, Italy and Great Britain Reach Decision. Five Cities Are A'ow Under Con trol of General Be Goutte.' (By the United Pre.) The supreme council will meet In London tomorrow to consider the sit uation brought about by French occu pation of the German Rhine cities of Frankfort, Hanau, Darmstadt, Offen bach, Homburg, Wiesbaden and their suburbs. At the conference, the allied attitude toward Marshal Foch's action prob- ably will be determined. For the present, the attitude of Great Britain and Italy apparently will be "benevolent neutrality." Italy was reported to have decided to offer France moral support only. Meantime, the French were report ed preparing to extend the scope of their occupation movement If they considered it necessary. I In the occupied zone, the German people apparently viewed the French' move with indifference, but in Berlin it had aroused violent protest. The Ebert government announced it would continue its military movement against the Ruhl communists, despite French demands that troops in the barred zone be removed at once, and sent notes to the allied governments protesting the French action. Relchswehr were rounding up the last of the Kuhr communists. Paci fication of the troubled area appeared near completion. First Phase Completed. Farls, April 7. The first phase of French occupation of German Rhine cities In retaliation for what the French consider Germany's violation of the treaty of Versailles thru send ing reichswehr troops into the neu tral zone to put down the Ruhr rebel lion, has been completed today. Jt was announced officially French forces had occupied Homburg. The tri-color today flew over Frankfort, Uarmstadt, Hanau, Dieburg and Hom burg. Second Phase Delayed. The second phase, it was learned, will be still further occupation if the liuhr district is not evacuated by Ger man troops. Preparation for the new French move, should it be necessary, was under way in the region of Nancy. Soldiers on leave were recalled. Three regiments, it was learned, were scheduled to leave for an unknown destination on Thursday. At Luneville the cavalry called In horses it had loaned the peasants for agricultural use. The French Rhine flotilla arrived at Hanau early today The press today generally declared Germany should not be permitted to leave a single soldier In the neutral zone after April 10 as provided in the protocol. Won't Hurry Germans. It was pointed out an arrangement must be made for policing this dis tnct. The next step, the newspaper suggested, should be negotiation of an agreement with Germany permitting aaequate ponce troops. Perfect order prevailed thruout the occupied zone last night, according to advices to the foreign office. The no ticeable change was the replacing of xne merman iieid gray uniform by that of the French poilu. Advices indicated complete obedi ence by the Germon population to General Do Goutte's proclamation of occupation. Officials of the German delegation here denied the French move would accelerate withdrawal of the reichs wehr from the Ruhr district. Thev predicted the Teuton troops would re main "until the Red revolt was crushed." U. S., Italy and Britain Join. Washington, April 7. The United States, Great Britain and Italy are row negotiating with France to ar rive at a definite policy In connection with the French advance Into Ger many, it was stated at the state de partment today. President Wiison is understood to have the whole matter before him and to be directing the attitude of the United States thru Secretary Colby. Premature F.x plosion Kills wo. Poplar Bluff, Mo..

COMPLETE DRIVE IN RUHR VALLEY DESPITE FRENCH Violent Protest Boused at Ber v lin by Invasion. Ulterior Motives in Ruhr Valley Are Denied. FRANCE TO USE FIRM HAND President Wilson Blamed for Slack Tendencies of Entente. Lack of Firmness by Allies Made Germans Overbold. (United Press Bulletin.) Berlin, April 7. A special session of the national assembly will be held Saturday. The call for the session was issued today following a confer ence between the heads of the political parties and the government. Berlin, April 7. France would make Germany a victim of her "shy lock policy," the government declared last night in a proclamation on the trench occupation of German Rhine cities. The government said its Ruhr operation was intended merely to re store and to prevent dissolution of trie nation. "That a hard hearted ODDonent de sires to make our people a victim of Its shylock policy rests with that op ponent alone," the proclamation de clared. The Berlin authorities promised to do "their utmost to terminate the con dition which had made French occu pation possible. Labor organizations of the Inde pendent and Majority Socialists con ferred tonight, issuing a statement de claring for retirement of the reichs wehr from the Ruhr basin, with the formation of district guards to pre serve order, as provided in the Biele feld agreement. The laborites also demanded that the reichswehr should not advance south of the River Ruhr. Dramatic Results. Paris, April 7. Thus far the French move apparently had failed to produce the dramatic effect upon Ger many which had been expected by the German delegation here. Dispatches from thruout Germany indicated the people, while angry, were quiet. A member of the German delegation here admitted that he had realized Sunday that France intended to carry out her threat. He said the Berlin government ordered withdrawal of German garrisons in the occupied cities before the French arrived. Germans bitterly accused the French of double dealing, declaring ranee hau reversed her position in the occupation move. The French public was elated over Marshal Foch's move. The result of the movement across the Rhine has been to increase the military leader's prestige greatly. Wilson Now Blamed. Theri was a growing tendency to blame President Wilson for the Ger man attitude. Many observers ac cused the president of giving the Ger mans the very encouragement which rosulted in their sending troops into the neutral zone in what the French consider absolute defiance of the peace treaty. At the foreign office, the German move was blamed on a general "lack of firmness by all the allies." No sin gle nation, it was aaid, could be held responsible. Germany, foreign office members said, evidently thought the allies could yield again. Just as they did in their demand for surrender of the Teuton war guilty and extradition of the for mer kaiser. But it was intimated France is prepared to stand alone if necessary to carry out the peace treaty. At the German embassy, it was said that the Berlin government had dis patched a note to the various allied capitals protesting against 'French oc cupation of the Rhine cities. UNCOVER SEW HUN COUP. Conspirators In Bavaria Wanted to Make Gen. Ludendorff Dictator. London. April 7. A far reaching military conspiracy, paralleling in im portance the von Kapp insurrection, has been revealed in Munich, a news agency dispatch from Berlin said to day. The conspiracy included making General von Ludendorff Bavarian dic tator and Doctor Heine economic chief, the dispatch said, adding that Heine was known as a Bavarian sep aratist. CHICAGO REFORMERS LOST. Mayor Thompson Overwhelming Vic tor In Yesterday's Election. Chicago, April 7. Mayor William Kale Thompson, Republican, was an overwhelming victor today in the count from yesterday's alderm&nic elections. The elections were nonpartisan but the issue was between a local! reform body and Thompson. The Municipal Voters' league recommended election of certain candidates, while Thompson supported Democrats. Only one of tne league a candidates was elected. DEFIES THE UNION Chicago Outlaw Strike Con tinues and Is Spreading. More Workers Join Walkout 25,000 Quit Today. ENGINEERS JOIN SWITCHMEN Refuse to Work With Strike breakers Sent In. National Brotherhood Lays Down Ultimatum to Rebels. Chicago, April 7. Meat and food prices will soar to higher values as a result of a strike of several thousand switchmen on railroads here, packers predicted today. They say that live stock receipts have been cut from 50.000 head daily to less than 10,000. The receipts yesterday amounted to 8,000 head as compared with 54,000 two weeks ago. The strike has thrown 10,000 employes at the stockyards out of work. 8,500 More Walk Out. Representatives of 8.500 members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers and Firemen employed in the Chicago switching district today had defied their union officials and voted to join the unauthorized switchmen's strike, called nearly a week ago. Freight traffic thru the expansive Chicago district already was restricted seriously and strike leaders and rail road officials were agreed that if the force of strikers was augmented, such traffic would be brought virtually to a standstill. The vote of the en gineers and firemen came in the face of predictions of grand officers of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen and the Switchmen's Union of North America, with which the striking switchmen are affiliated, that by Sat urday the strike would be broken by loyal union men rushed here from other cities. Strike Is Spreading. The engineers and firemen declared they would not work with the loyal union men and also demanded an in creased wage. Engineers are paid J5.76 a day and they demanded Jf.oO an hour; the firemen paid from $4.16 to $4.28 a day, demanded $1 an hour. Passenger trains would not be inter fered with, the strikers said. Railroad officials said, however, that such traf fic was certain to suffer in the event work in the yards was restricted fur ther. Meanwhile it was reported sup plies of certain foods and fuel were beginning to run low in Chicago and nearly 20,000 employes had been thrown out of work at the stock yards by stoppage ot.reeeipts.of rntW. It was stated that unless receipt of. livestock was resumed shortly, approx imately 60,000 men would be made idle. The pens at the stock yards vir tually were empty yesterday. The switchmen continued their strike un der an ultimatum from the Brother hood of Railway Trainmen that they will forfeit their union memberships unless tney return to work by tomor low night. They also would lose their seniority standings with the railroads. Union Sends Ultimatum. The brotherhood's ultimatum was signed by twenty-three brotherhood officials, embracing twenty chairmen of general committees of affected rail roads and three vice presidents. The ultimatum sets forth the walkout had its origin in the personal grievance of John Grunau, leader of the "insur gents" against the Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul railroad, the first common carrier affected. W. G. Lee, president of the Brother hood, isssued a statement at Cleveland yesterday characterizing the strikers as "regenades" and sanctioning any measures found necessary by union "regulars" to restore normal condi tions. The strikers claimed early to day that 16,000 men already were out in the district and that by night 25, 000 would be on strike. Railroad of ficials, while not denying the serious ness of the situation said about 2,500 switchmen and yardmen were out. Office clerks and superintendents Joined the union strike breakers in the yards yesterday. William L. Bond, treasurer or the Switchmen's union, said 19 trunk lines and five belt lines were "paralyzed" by the strike. Eighteen railroads were affected to some extent, officials admitted. Switchmen strike leaders early today said delegations had been sent to Milwaukee, Kansas City and other cities to call strikes. WALK FROM HERE TO CHICAGO Tonganoxie Man Has Pass to "Pound" Santa Fe Ties. A "stroll" from Topeka to Chicago and return will be made in yie near future by Kirby McRill, of Tonga- noxie. who has made a practice of walking from his home to Topeka, Leavenworth and Kansas City. He will start on his long trip May 1, with three pairs of shoes which he has tested by "short walks" of ten or twenty miles. McRill has a pass from the Santa Fe permitting him to walk "any place on the tracks" of that system, but for bidding him to ride on freight, pas senger trains or engines. v IRISH PICKETS IX JAIL. Women Facing Federal Charges Fail to Give $1,000 Bond. Washington, April 7. The four Irish pickets arrested yesterday at the Brit ish embassy were. booked for prelim inary trial before commissioner Rich ardson today on charges of violating a federal statute. They were brought into court after spending the night in the house of detention as the result of their failure to furnish $1,000 bond. I Frank P. Walsh, of Kansas City, Mo., who represented Irish indepen dence claims at Paris in 1918, is coun sel for the women, .who are Mrs. Honor Walsh of Germantown, Pa.. Misses Kathleen O'Brien and Elaine Barries of Philadelphia and Helen O'Brien of St. Louis. Leaders of the movement were pres ent for the hearing. They refused to discuss future plans or to say whether the "bombing" of the embassy building with. "literature, dropped from an airplane inaugurated yesterday would be resumed. it 'Radium Ray" Woman Again Appealing to Sheriff's Force Here Says Prominent Topeka Man Throws Rays at Her from Pipe He Carries in His Pocket Man Doesn't Know Her. 9 1 Suffering from a hallucination thattsation. Then, the "radium ray." con- prominent Topeka business man is throwing radium rays at her and causing her untold suffering and anguish, a well known Topeka wo man, divorced a year ago today, is creating no end of concern to county officers and attorneys whom she has employed. Mental experts have been employed to effect a cure for the obsession un der which she is laboring. The wo man has gone to California on advice of friends and attorneys in an effort to "escape the radium rays" and she continues to complain that he "is con stantly shooting those rays at her. striking her in the eyes and throat and causing eruptions on her body," according to statements today by county officers. The strange feature of the affair is that the woman never saw the Topeka business man at any particular place, so far as officials have been able to learn, and her only acquaintance with him was thru pictures in the news papers and articles written concerning him. The business man has been in receipt of letters from her begging and imploring him to cease throwing these rays, so officers say. For months, her attorney reports, she has suffered the greatest anguish and worry possible in her belief that she is constantly being persecuted by these "radium rays." On Tuesday af ternoon Sheriff Hugh Larimer called at her home on the west side. First he talked about business af fairs and reported the woman to be "straight as a string" in her conver- IN ILLINOIS NEXT Preferential. Presidential Pri maries There ext Week.. Yesterday's Results Failed to Clarify Situation Any. New York, April 7. Illinois is the next hurdle in the obstacle race for the presidential nominations. Preferential primaries will be held there next Tuesday. Fifty-eight Re publican and a large number of Demo cratic delegates to Jhe national con ventions are affected." T Illinois has its own "favorite son" candidate for Republican honors Governor Lowden. Nevertheless," Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood has invaded that state in a spirited campaign for its endorsement. The Wood organization bases its hopes on the fact that Lowden trailed the general badly in tne Micmgan primaries, where- both had conducted equally strong drives for Republican votes. The fight in Illinois is expected to be limited to these two, as Sena tor Johnson, who carried Michigan, and Herbert Hoover, who ran next to Lowden in Michigan, have made no campaign there. Yesterday's Election Tied. Neither the New Tork nor the Wis consin primaries yesterday clarified the situation in the two major parties- The delegations of both states are un pledged. The lew York Republicans are expected to cast their vote on the first ballot for Nicholas Murray But ler, of Columbia university. After that it is believed the delegation will "ride" with the winner. No one has attempted to claim the state's ninety Democratic delegates. Governor Ed wards of New Jersey and William G. McAdoo and Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer appear to be equally popular. To date, Wood continues to lead the Republican candidates with sixty three instructed delegates. Johnson is second with forty, and Lowden has twelve. Granting the claims of the respective candidates regarding unin structed delegates, the possible stand ing would be: Wood. 109; Butler 88; Lowden, 70; Johnson, 40; Lenroot. 26; Judge J. C. Pritchard of North Carolina, 22, and Governor Alien of Kansas, 20. SALINA TO BUIL1 MEMORIAL. Bonds for $300,000 Voted Proposition Defeated Once. Salina, Kail., April 7. By a big ma jority, Salina J-esterday voted $300,000 bonds for the erection of a memorial community hall. The proposition had been defeated at a previous special county election by heavy rural opposi tion. Salina town boosters called special city election to be held the date of the regular city spring elec tion. This eliminated the rural vote and made the. proposition strictly city one. The city also voted $5,000 bonds for the purchase of a small park and playground and yoted to take over control of Gypsum hill cemetery, which has been under private control. PREDICT ARMY BILL DEFEAT. Universal Service Boosters Line Up Against House Reorganization Act. Washington, April 7. Opponents of universal military training today pre dieted defeat of the army re-oreaniza tion bill in the senate by a margin of at least live votes. Ten to twelve Republicans will join with Democrats to dereat the Wads worth measure, which carries the uni versal training plan, Senator Capper, Kansas, said today. Senator McKel- lar. Tennessee, predicted that not over three or four Democrats would sup port the bill. President Is Grandpa Again. 'New York, April 7. Mary Faith was the name given to President Wil son's newest granddaughter today. She was born last night to Mr. and Mrs. William G. McAdoo. Mrs. Mc doo is the president's youngest daugh ter. The baby was named after Mc doo's mother. Their first child, Ellen Wilson, now A years of age. was named after Mrs. McAdoo's mother, the first M nt TPIlarm. versation began Throws 'Em With Pipe. She was reported to describe the terrible suffering she was enduring at this time thru the throwing of the rays on her throat .that day. "He has a pipe in his pocket with which he throws those rays," she in formed Larimer. "He threw them at me clear to California." 'iWell, let's go down and take that pipe away," he said. Larimer went after the "radium ray pipe" and found the Topeka busi ness man was out of the city. He ad vised the use of will power in throw ing off the hallucination. "I have tried that and failed," she said. Finally a few months ago the attor ney took the woman to the business man's office. The Topeka man had never seen the woman before in his life. Both he and her attorney did their very best to get the idea out of her mind but this attempt at a cure has failed the same as all others. Larimer and her attorney spent an hour in consultation as to what means should be employed to dispose of the unfortunate affair. The woman is cul tured, was a former school teacher and is worth several thousands of dol lars received in alimony from her for mer husband, a wealthy Silver Lake farmer. She has excellent business ability and excepting for this halluci nation which has caused her to be a victim of fear and agony in re cent months she is one of the bright est women in Topeka, officers say. TO RULE SIBERIA Japanese Intend to Use Iron Hand Against Soviets. Battle for Control of Country Jfow Expected. Washington, April 7. Japan In tends to rule all Siberia with an "iron hand" so long as it is felt there is dan ger from Bolshevism, according to the interpretation officials today put on overthrow of the social revolutionary government ot Vladivostok and cap ture of the city by Japan. Much significance was attached by officials to a report received simulta neously with official ocnflrmation of the occupation of Vladivostok; by the Japanese from the American vice consul at Chita, rn the Trans-Baikal region, that the city was besieged last Saturday by local Bolshevik! forces. Big Battle Expected. That an extensive battle may soon take place near that point between the Bolsheviki and the Japanese and loyal Russian forces for the control of Si beria was indicated, by, the consul in reporting that reinforcements from the regular Bolsheviki army at Irkutsk were awaited, that the anti-Bolshevik! authorities at Chita also were waiting for reinforcement from the Japanese, moving irom the east and that a bat tle was imminent west of that city. .I he Japanese are in full military control of Vladivostok, the United States embassy at Tokio advised the state department today. There were few casualties during the fighting. No Americans were injured. Military experts here estimated that the Japanese forces now in the Si beria region total about 46.000. At the time of the defeat of the Kolchak'.o' municipal ownership of its street army, the" Bolsheviki were reported to have an army of To, 000 troops on the Siberian front, but many of these were withdrawn after Kolchak's col lapse. TWO ARE KILLED IN FIRE Seattle Hotel Guests Were Driven to Streets Clad Only In Night Attirj. Seattle, Wash., April 7.

The regular Republican slate for delegates at large and district delegates to- the national convention was elected in yesterday's primary, according to practically com plete returns today. The Democratic slate was chosen without opposition except for Schenectady, where Mayor George R. Lunn, former Socialist, ap parently defeated the organization candidate. Both delegations are un- instructed. William M. Bennett, pledged to Senator Hiram Johnson and the only opponent of the Republican "big four," was defeated about Z to 1. In twelve New York City congressional districts where Johnson delegates op posed the regular slate all were de feated by big majorities." Nicholas M. Butler candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, carried his district nearly 4 to 1. In the Seventeenth congressional district, the only place where sup porters of Herbert Hoover made a contest, his two delegates were de feated nearly -2 to 1. Johnson Holds Michigan. v Detroit, Mich., April 7. Senator Hiram Johnson maintained his lead by nearly 43,000 votes on the face of late returns from Monday's Republi can preferential primary today. On the returns from rural districts, Her bert Hoover forged ahead of Governor Edwards of New Jersey on the Demo cratic ballot. In 1,472 precincts out of 2,421 in this state, Johnson had 124,727 votes and Wood 81,994. Lowden held a 3,000 lead over Hoover. From the same number of precincts.

Milwaukee Re-elects Socialist. Milwaukee. April 7. D. W. Hoan, Socialist mayor of Milwaukee, was re elected here yesterday, defeating Clifton Williams, city attorney, on a Nonpartisan ticket by about 3,000 votes. Emil Seidel, for city treasurer, and William Coleman, for comptroller, other Socialist candidates, apparently were defeated by narrow margins. The fight was the hardest and clos est since the Socialists gained the po litical ascendancy here about ten years ago. La Follette Leading. Defeat of Wisconsin's uninstructed Republican candidates as delegates at large and also district delegates by the LaFollette candidates was indicated early today on the basis of fragmen tary returns from all parts of the state. The LaFollette headquarters at Mad ison today were claiming success of the entire delegate slate. Tabulations thus far indicate LaFol lette men leading in the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth. Sixth. Eighth and Ninth congressional districts. An even break was apparent in the Seventh and Eleventh and the unin structed slate leading in the First. Hostility to any plan to add. further tax burdens on the state was apparent from returns on the proposed consti tutional amendment to increase pay of legislators. Preliminary reports in dicated an overwhelming defeat of the plan. Madison defeated the question car system by a 3 to 1 vote and elected as mayor Milo Kittelson who opposed FVank C. Blied, the municipal owner ship champion. D. D. Lockerby defeated A. T. La- due, Socialist, for councilman at Eau Claire. At Wausau, Emil Flatter de feated Herman Marth, Socialist, for mayor. POPULATION OVER 55.000? If Census Is Correct, Topeka Will Have Election Commissioner. For the first time in five years, a commissioner of elections may be ap pointed to take charge of the elec tions in Topeka next fall. If the government census bureau announces the population of Topeka before that time, and the figures are 55,000 or more, the present state law will require the governor to appoint a commissioner of elections for To peka at once. This office in all cities of Kansas under 55.000 population, was abolished by the legislature in 1915. Since that time the city clerk has been in charge. W. H. Kemper was t1e last man to hold the office in Topeka. Before him Capt. C. H. Titus served as com missioner for several years. Many persons are watching for the census report on Topeka and it is ru mored that at least three men already have themselves picked out for the job. Incubator Baby Is Heiress. Chicago. April 7.

Howat and his "cabinet" yesterday decided they would not recognixe the industrial court. And when served with court order to appear, Howat de clared he wouldn t go unless taken, Attachment Order Issued. Judge A. J. Curran of the Crawford county district shortly -before ten o'clock this morning Issued a writ of attachment for Alexander Howat and four other officials of the Kansas miners' union. i The order for the writ followed ths filing of an application with the court by Richard J. Hopkins, attorney gen era! of Kansas, and A. B. Keller, coun ty attorney, charging Howat and the others with contempt of court in re fusing to obey the court's order to ap pear before the court or industrial re lations, now sitting here, to testify. Practically all of the miners wh struck Monday in protest against, the recent wage commission award at Allen Will 'ot Interfere, Governor Allen, who has kept In close touch with proceedings in Pitts burg, is confident the rank and file of mine union members will refuse to follow the Howat-Dorchy leadership in the present fight.- Following long; dis tance telephone talks with industrial court members today, the governor ventured the opinion that a break might be expected if Howat and hl lieutenants did not submit to court action. "Howat and Dorchy must yield or the union members will not follow them,'" the governor said this after noon. "Already a number of minor cases have been brought before the industrial court by the mine union workers. These cases have all been filed during the present stay in Pitts burg. "The mine workers who want to work are not anxious to follow Howat to jail. And if Judge Curran doesn't change his mind, he has made clear that he will not permit foolishness la handling the present contempt cita tion." Governor Allen does not expect to go to Pittsburg or to interfere with tb present case. He will permit tha courts to act and Howat can dispose of his troubles before the bar of jus tice. It is the belief of persons in To peka in touch with the case that un less a decision is rendered -In favor of Howat and his associates when the cases are called Friday, that all of the mine union heads will be sent to jail until they are willing te testify.

Repeated Attempts at Fraud Are Charged to "Bosses." Kansas City, Mo.' .April 7. Mayor Cowgill and most of the Democratic ticket were re-elected yesterday by a majority of about 2,000 votes, nearly complete returns today indicated. Two years ago Cowgill's majority was around 7.000. Defeated "reform" leaders insist the present city administration perpetu ated its hold on City affairs thru fraud, the big Cowgill majorities being piled up in river wards. The "anti-boss" spokesmen say there was evidence of repeating and fraudulent voting in all the "boes" wards. Was Helgn of Terror. Tactics employed by the heavy ar tillery division of the Democratic ma chine in yesterday's municipal election label the contest the dirtiest and most brutal in Kansas City's history. Casimir J. Welch, a justice of the peace and chief lieutenant of Joseph Shannon, led the thugs of the Eighth ward. In the afternoon Welch led his gang to a polling place at 1429 East Nineteenth street and personally as saulted James H. Knapp, 122 Van Brunt boulevard, a Republican chal lenger, beating Knapp Into a semi conscious state with "brass knucks". sections of lead pipe, revolver butts and "blackjacks." Thieves! Teggmen! Motor car thieves! Macquereaux! Gamblers and bootleggers! Criminals of all kinds, types and descriptions'. Everyone de pendent on the vice bosses for protec tion delivered election day aid yester day. Motor cars loaded with "repeat ers" the far-famed "flying squadron" added its "bit." It was a gala day for the thugs a fight at the drop of the hat for any one caring to drop the hat. Aegro Repeaters the Catfse. Knapp, who la 62 years old, was left prostrate on the floor of the voting, place, syffering from a broken jaw, a deep gash over his right eye. His kneecap was broken and he also suf fered internal injuries. Welch was as sisted y the gang of cutthroats and -thugs who loaf about Welch's court room at 717 East Fifteenth street and "cadge" their livelihoods from pris oners arraigned before Welch by "seeing"Welch for them. During the morning Welch ap peared at various polling places, ac companied by his gang, and made open threats that Republican election officials were "going to get their fill." Late yesterday afternoon five negroes entered the voting place of the Four teenth precinct of the Eighth ward at 1429 East Nineteenth street, and at tempted to vote. Knapp immediately challenged their votes, declaring that they were trying to vote the names of other men. The election officials agreed with Knapp that the negroes should not be allowed to vote and they were ordered to leave th voting place. "We'll see about you," one of the nearroes threatened. "Judge Welch will be down here to take care of -you later on." Brutal Attack on Judge. The negroes then left the. voting place, threatening and growling. A half hour later a motor car loaded with men drew up across the street from the voting place. Eight men headed by Welch alighted from the car. All were armed with short lengths of gas pipe, and advanced toward the voting place. Detecting the presence of Welch and his gangsters, one of the election officials advised Knapp to flee. He refused. Welch entered the voting place closely followed by his gang and walked over to where Knapp was standing, with his t;ms crossed. With out a word Welch's right hand, wear ing a glistening pair of "brass knucks," shot out, striking Knapp a heavy blow over the right eye. Blood spurted from an' ugly wound caused by the blow and Knapp staggered against the wall. Welch followed his advantage by delivering another sledge hammer blow to Knapp's right Jaw and Knapp dropped to the floor, his jaw shattered by the blow. Welch then turned to his fellow-thugs. "Sic 'em." he said. The gangsters then followed with their part of the attack and pounced on the unconscious man with fury, kicking him f the abdomen and face and stamping his faceavith the heels of their shoes. 1920 CENSUS KEPORT wasningion, April i. population tAtiKti announced fnriav bv .the census bureau included: Hudson, N.

Chicago, April 7. Where have all the beggars gone T There aren't any, any more,' hardly.

"weary willies" have also become Inoculated with the work germ and their appearance at the back door to "panhandle a handout" is now rare. A survey of leading cities in the middle west and on the Pacific coast today showed that beggars,, hoboes and tramps are quitting their profes sions to join in. high salaried pros perity. Two years ago Chicago had at least two thousand beggars, according to Chief of Detectives Mooney here. No I doubt if we have a 'hun dred," he said. "They're going to work. There are still a few here, but a sight of one is a rare event." Beggars' Earnings Big, Too. Earnings of beggars are twir? what they were a few years ago, an. ji King to a blind mendicant on State street. "People are making more money now and they give liberally," he said. Of course it costs ma twice as much to live." This beggar said his earnings run between six and ten dollars a day. -mere are no idlers in the I. W. W., said Bill Haywood, head of that organization.

The type" of hobo that could for merly be found around a "jungle" fire along the railroad tracks now fre quents the cities and ,stops At hotels where a -'flop" can be had for 15 cents or a quarter, according to Salva tion Army officials. "Investigation shows that the boom ers, hoboes and floaters are forsaking the country and the small towns to come to stay in the city where higher wages are paid for less arduous tasks," Lieut. Col. Emil Marcussen, of the Salvation Army, said today. "We have found that the shifting" population of the country is made up of a better class of men than .t formerly was. Since prohibition became effective, these men are better clothed, well fed and have more money to spend for other things besides liquor." Fifty cents an hour is the minimum wage demanded by these men, he said. Many are enjoying life on a fifty fifty basis. They work three days and then lay off the other three. OIL FRAUD IS CHARGED Atchison Man Asks ReoeivcrsbJp for WUIard Petroleum Company H. G. West, president of the Farm ers' National bank, and M. C.

A judgment for $45,000 Is demanded in the petition against West and Willard, the Farmers' Na tional bank and the Willard Petro leum company. Attorneys for Highfill claim that fully $45,000 was raised from small investors in oil and placed in the hands of West, as trustee, at first and later in the bands of the bank, as trustee and finally it went into the Willard Petroleum company, incor porated, last December, they say. It Is claimed in the petition that Willard and West entered into an agreement recorded in Marion county, by which they attempted to divide the. $46,000 invested in a different manner- than that understood by the investors to be the method of distribu tion of the money and proceeds of a $300 a day well claimed to be located On the company's lease. A bearing on the petition will be held before Judge George H. Whit comb at I o'clock Friday afternoon. 'The squabble is between the oil men," Attorney McDermott of the bank said today. "Hi G.

More than two thousand troops of the defeated Ger man communist army have fled into the British sone of occupation, where they were Interned, a dispatch from Coblentz said today. There is little probability of Great Britain participating in the French advance into Germany, as far as can be ascertained at present, and, accord ing to a statement current in some quarters, the British government feels itself placed in an awkward pesition by the French occupation of German cities. Invasion Unexpected. When such' a move was discussed re cently at the meeting of the ambassa dors' council, it ia. said Great Britain and Italy dissented or at any rate strongly urged the necessity of -eare-ful consideration before taking any definite steps. It was not expected France would proceed to occupy the neutral zone without their formal ap proval. Such approval, it la said, cer tainly has never been given and when the British government was faced with the acomplished fact, it was consider ably surprised. Of these reports there is no official confirmation but they are accepted in some usually well informed quarters. Supreme) Council Meets. The supreme council will meet in London tomorrow to consider the Ger man situation, it was announced to day. Prime Minister Lloyd -George of Great Britain: M. Cambon of France; Foreign "Minister Scialola Of Italy; Premier Venizelos of Oreece: Baron Chinda, Japan; General Berthelot, France; Earl Curaon, and Andrew Bo nar Law.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 7, 1920 The Aftermath of Flu This is No. 1 of a seres of advertisements, prepared by a competent physician, explaining how certain diseases which attack the air passages such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whoop- ing Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold often leave these organs in an inflamed, congested state, thus affording a favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Vicli's Vapo Kub may be of value in this condition. Your doctor will impress upon you that following recovery from the active stage of influenza, there often remains an inflamed, congested condition of the air passages throat, larynx, bron chial tubes and lungs. Frequently the cough hangs on soreness of the chest persists you take cold easily and there may be obstinate catarrh. This condition is slow to clear up and if neglected may favor the de velopment of pneumonia, or later on, serious disease of the lungs. Such catcs should continue under the care of their physician should exercise moderately in the open air eat plenty of whole some food avoid overwork and sudden chills. Nightly applications of Vick's VapoRub may help nature to complete the process of repair. Because Vicks acts locally by stimulation thru the skin to 30c 60 91.20 UYapoRub draw out the inflammation, at tract the blood away from the congested sppts and relieve the cough. In addition, the medici nal ingredients of Vicks are vaporized by the body heat. These vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. Leave the cloth ing loose around the .neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough is annoying, swallow a small bit of Vicks the isize of a pea. Samples to new users will be sent free on request to the Vick Chemical Company, 231 Broad Street, Greensboro, N.

Solidarity among Latin-American nations must replace the Monroe doctrine as the protective policy of those countries. President Carranza of Mexico de clared in an interview printed recent ly by La Prensa of Buenos Aires, copies of which have Just reached Washington. The Mexican executive was quoted as declaring his unalterable opposition to the Monroe doctrine, which he characterized as inefficient for the purpose of meeting the needs of weak nations. It is not true. President Car ranza said, that the United States gov ernment assisted the revolution which placed him in power nor did he be lieve any official assistance had come from Washington to the various rebei factions below the border but he ex pressed his conviction that 'Hinscrup ulous merchants" are sending arms and ammunition into Mexico. The most serious problem now fac ing Mexico, he said, lay in the com ing elections but he promised the fed eral army will uphold the successful candidate against all malcontents.

Im mediately after he landed he went to the Russian embassy with General Romanovsky, his former chief of staff, and it was while he was there that the latter was assassinated.

"Today each is regretting that probably the other won't. 'It is safe to say," con tinued Thompson in forecasting con vention action, "that "Wood won't be the Republican candidate.

Mr. Hanna was strenuously opposed in the campaign by the Times and Dispatch-Republican as well as three banks of the city.

Any doubt that this city will not sup port a two dollar comic opera such as Ralph Dunbar bas provided In his produc tion of "The Chocolate Soldier." is effectu ally set at rest by the appearance of the reserve seat board for next Saturday, when the great comic opera complete in every detail of cast, chorus, orchestra, scenery, and lighting will be given at the Grand. It is only fair to advise those who are going that they should act promptly in the matter of securing neats. for it is a com mon thing for standing room to be in de mand for this production, so say Managers MeCaffery and Birch. It is due to their persistent efforts to secure such attractions that this city is included in the tour, and will, if support warrants, be in the circuit of these excel lent comic opera productions. It is also notable the managers give '"The Chocolate Soldier" their personal endorsement after having carefully investigated its merits. The assurance offered la that the produc tion la the best the romic opera ever had. and more could not be said. Two of a Kind.

Able To Do Housework Since Taking Tanlac. The remarkable results being de rived from Tanlac is further evidenced in the case of Mrs. Mamie Garica, a highly respected Missouri woman re siding at 506 Holmes street, Kansas City. Mrs. Garica said: "For six months before I began taking Tanlac I had rheumatism so bad I wasn't able to walk without someone helping me or without holding onto a chair but now I am doing my house-work for the first time in years and have gained eighteen pounds in weight. "It was three years ago that I be gan to suffer with rheumatism and I got so bad off I had to give up my houseworic and I kept getting worse until finally I was almost helpless. My joints were stiff and swollen and it pained me every time I moved. I had pains all over my body, especially in my back and sometimes I was In such agony, 1 thought I would go dis tracted. I also suffered "badly from constipation and often had severe headaches and at times I got so dizzy I had to lie down or sit down to keep from falling. My stomach became badly upset and at times what little I did eat made me so nauseated I could not retain a bit of it. My heart would palpitate terribly and r felt so choked up and tight across the chest I had to gasp for breath. I lost weight until I went down to one hundred ten pounds and finally, as I said, I got so bad off I couldn't walk without help and I was beginning to wonder where it was all going to end. 'That was my condition when I be gan taking Tanlac, and words just can't express how happy I was when the pains commenced to ease up and I felt a calm coming over me that I hadn't felt in-years. Why, by the time I had finished my second bottle I was able to walk and I continued to im prove until now I have taken up my house-work again. The swelling and stiffness have left my joints and I hardly know what it is to have even so much as an ache. I can eat just anything I want because my digestion is perfect and I never suffer any bad effects n-t all. My constipation has been entirely relieved and I am free from headaches and dizziness. My sleep is sound and refreshing and I now weigh one hundred twenty-eight and my health is better than it has been for four years. I am simply overjoyed at my recovery and I am happy to give this statement for the benefit of others." Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully McFarland Jrug Co.. 835 Kansas Ave. and 729 Kansas Ave. Adv. THE BEST ON EARTH Says Mrs. Staples of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Taunton, Mass. "I could not cat or sleep for six months, had fainting spells ana could not wm without help for three months, caused bv female trouble. My cousin, who was a ''doctor, told me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound and it helped me greatly. Then during the Change of Life I used the same remedy. I am seventy years old now and am able to do- my own housework and walk one mile to church every Sunday morning and evening. I am recommending the Vegetable Compound to my friends hav ing the same troubles as I had-. Your remedy is the best on earth. I cannot find words to express my gratitude to it." Mrs. Scsan C. Status, 157 'B School St., Taunton, Mass. The reason that thousands of women from all parts of the country write such grateful letters is that Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound has brought health and happiness into their lives, once burdened with pain and illness. It has relieved women from some of the worst forms of female ills, such as displacements, inflammation, and ul ceration. Why don't you try itt jiiFuuw'imui MUSTEROLE QUICK RELIEHJPLISTER!

Usskin. director, Washing ton. American troops sent to Siberia to cejthat Japan should not obtain an undue power In that country have been withdrawn and the Japanese are left free to work their will. They have signalized the occasion by taking possession of Vladivostok. When the mikado's troops first entered Siberia probably nobody expected that they would ever depart. Why they were not permitted to handle the situation alone in the beginning, as they now will do, is past understanding. Our government committed no greater folly during or since the war than it did in sending soldiers to Siberia. There is absolutely nothing to show for it. Japan doubtless Intends to be come and remain the dominant power TiT eastern Asia. It is doubtful that anybody can stop her. The world probably would have beerj better off if she had been permitted a free hand following the signing of the armistice. What she -wants in the east she will take, sooner or later. Coal prices continue to advance as everybody,, expected they would do. The mine workers say that the ad vance in wages given them doesn't necessitate the advance In the priceB of coal the operators have announced. It may be they are right. It is a habit, -not only with coal operators, but with most other purveyors to ythe public's needs, not merely to pass on to the consumer additions to costs of produc tion, but to capitalize them as well, by which is meant that they usually col lect more from the public than they are made to pay. It is not merely wages that are treated In this way. Tariff duties, freight .rates, taxes and all other levies are converted into op portunities to swell profits. Present conditions make it exceptionally easy to do thia. So long as production falls short of the demand, it will be easy to advance prices o the limit of the pub lic's readiness to pay. Production means increased supply, economical and careful buying means decreased demand. When Increased supply combines with decreased de mand something is su to happen, and that something will be lower prices. Produce more, spend less and presently there will be a breach In that high-cost wall wide enough to drive a team and wagon thru. LloyS George calls the attention of Americans to the fact that Eamon de Valera, self-styled president of an Irish republic, is not only using the same arguments, but the same words, as Jefferson Davis did when that lead er was advocating and defending the secession of the south. Members of congress who favored a resolution ap proving the creation of an Irish re public, it is pointed out by the Los An geles Times, had ancestors who died to prevent the southland from having a little self-determination of its own. "The British premier might have add ed." continues the Times, "that there are alleged American statesmen who quote George Washington as a way ing against, entangling alliances and fight against American participation In a League of Nations and yet are ml Ways ready with their little old reso lution of sympathy or denunciation whenever there is upheaval or turmoil in any other land. Practically all of those who oppose the league covenant are insistent on Interfering with Eng land's policy in Ireland. Where is the consistency?" The manager of one of the big auto mobile plants in this country is report-! ed as saying that production of ma chines is five years behind, owing to the big demand here end abroad, where American made machines are regarded as the best. The foreign de mand is enormous, and makers find it impossible to give attention to let ters and cablegrams from foreigotsus tomers who desire cars made in this country, owing to the fact that thej home market cannot be. supplied. It is estimated that it will take five years to catch up with production sufficient to supply the demand. What is true in the automobile industry is also true in many other industries which face demands greater than their capacity for production. The outlook for pros perity for a period is the brightest in the history of the country, and that be ing true it follows that prices will continue to rule high. Under such conditional as now prevail it isn't rea sonable to expect marked drops in cost to consumers. THE WOMAM VOTE. Efforts of the suffragists to obtain complete ratification of the Susan B. Anthony amendment in time for the women of the entire country to vote in November so far have proven vain. The refusal of Republican Delaware and Democrat Mississippi to ratify the amendment renders it less probable that the amendment will be ratified by the necessary number of states in or der to give it effect at the approach ing election.' Notwithstanding this fact, women will be able to vote for president, as the result of action taken by a num ber. of states, which states have 314 of the 631 electoral votes. These states, together with the political class ification of each and its electoral vote, are as follows: Full woman suffrage states Ari zona (D) I, California (R), IS, Col orado R) 6, Idaho (R) 4, Kansas (R) 10, Michigan R) IS, 'Montana (R), 4, Nevada (R) 3, New Tork (R), 45, Oklahoma (DJ 10, Oregon (R) 6, South Dakota (R) 5, UJah (D) 4, Washing ton (R) 7, Wyoming (R) 3; total 137.

To free the postal service complete ly from the baneful influence of poli tics is the Object of a bill recently in troduced in congress. In general the proposal Is to abolish the political of fice of postmaster-general and commit, the conduct of the postoffice depart ment to a commission. If this will deliver the country from Burleson rule everybody will be for it. WHERE BLOOD TELLS. The old saying that "blood will tell" has never been better illustrated than in the case of Grand Duchess Olga of Russia. Despite the efforts of the Bol shevik l to exterminate the breed of the Romanoffs, it appears that the grand duchess, thru, the devotion of a peasant maid, has escaped the general slaughter. Sister of the czar, she was sent with the other Romanoffs to a Russian prison, where she was supv posed to have been condemned by a soviet local council and tabbed to death. But it now comes out that a daugh ter of a peasant, who served in; the royal household, exchanged clothing with the grand duchess and took her place in the prison, and the royal prisoner was permitted to depart on the supposition that she was the maid. The peasant girl suffered the Indig nities that the Bolsheviki took a ma lignant delight in inflicting on' royalty and went heroically to her death with out revealing her secret. The sister of the czar was found by Red Cross workers In a hovel in south ern Russia, living the life of a peas ant and devoting her w hole time to re lieving the suffering of those about her. Her identity was accidentally discovered, much to her regret. She declined to. leavo Russia and seek safety in a iore civilized country, as serting that she owed her life to "her people." She is still in territory occu pied by the Bolsheviki, where she is working to relieve the distress which the Bolshevik regime has caused. Knowing that her life hangs on the whim of the slayers of the rest of her family, she insists on staying and ac cepting the common lot. But she has not been alone in up holding the traditions and dignity of the Romanoff family. The impress refused a safe conduct to Germany at the time the Brest-Lltovsk treaty was signed, preferring prison and death with her husband to freedom in exile. The czar himself refused to be a party to a plot for his escape, holding that it would be beneath his dignity to- vio late the laws of his country, even tho those laws were enforced more often violated by a government composed of thieves, criminals and murderers. Can it be believed that any mem ber of the Lenine crowd would have shown such devotion to an ideal, un der similar circumstances? 1 It is being noted by impartial ob servers that while congress expelled Berger on account of his declared opinions and five members of the New Tork assembly have been turned out for a similar reason, Newberry, who is under sentence for violation of lay. retains his seat In the senate. Berger also has been found guilty of the law's infraction but no such record stands against the New Tork Socialists.

TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC J. HASKLV, Director. Washington, D. C. PAINT UP! The painting season is on. If you haven't already felt a hankering after overalls, a brush and a bucket of paint, you probably will soon. The painting urge is a good exam ple of nature's efficiency. You don't feel an overwhelming desire to spruce things up at Christmas or Fourth of July. Maybe your subconscious mind knows that paint freezes in winter and dries too quickly In hot weather. Or maybe it doesn't. Either way. spring is the time when you notice that the house looks shabby beside. the rejuve nated lilac bush, and that the iron frog fountain is shabby in spots. The esthetic value of paint Is not, however, its most important quality. As some one- has euphoniously put it, paint is, primarily for protection. Paint is defined as a chemical com bination of materials which prevents rust or decay. Tests show that decay of structural material sometimes be gins after only twenty-four hours of exDosurn to the weather. Manufacturers say that lack of paint causes a greater annual property loss than fire. Whether this claim can be reduced to exact figures we do not know. Certainly houses in every com munity fall into decay thru lack of surface protection, and much iron ma chinery deteriorates irom me same cause. The situation is made worse at pres ent by the fact that labor is expensive and scarce, anw"p"aint is from one hun dred to two hundred per cent higher than bfore the war. The department of agriculture has no influence on paint prices, but it makes the sugges tion that labor is three-fourths of the cost of a painting Job, and that, while painting may be a fine art, the layman can get satisfactory results himself on a job which presents no unusual diffi culties, if he will only follow tlsay rules. The first rule, naturally. Is to find out what needs a fresh coat. Crack ing, scaling, or an brased surface are signs that the paint no longer protects the material, so that moisture easily penetrates the cracks, and decay re sults. With good paint materials and careful workmanship, the outside of a house needs renovating once in three or four years. Life of paint on the inside depends largely on local condi tions, sueh as care of property and the climate. If the outside of a house is to be done over, it is a good idea to look around your'community, and especial ly your neighborhood, before selecting colors. If you live in a city brick row, this probably does not concern you, but for suburbanites, and dwellers in wood, concrete and stone houses, find ing the right color scheme ia often difficult. In garden cities the color and plan of every house must be, approved by a local committee on architecture, but in most communities no standard is re quired, and the desire to brighten up f me place oiten results In every nouse on a block taking on a different color. The effect in these cases is more start ling than restful. A good color can make an ugly resi dence attractive ,or at least inconspic uous, while the wrong shade' or too many shades xften ruin1 an otherwise well planned house. Brick red is, cur iously enough, the most unobtrusive color for a building. Green and brown are usually good brown being warm er, and harmonizing better with grass and foliage. White is attractive for certain types of homes, notably the old farm house and the colonial style. White paint is less durable than light tint, accord ing to chemists of the department of agriculture. They advise adding a lit tle cream, or buff, or a tinge of gray to add to the life of the coat. Some houses of the bungalow type look well in two colors, one for the lower part, and another color, or a different shade of the same color, for the upper half. This effect needs careful planning. It Is often abused, so that instead of harmonizing, the two colors contrast vividly and the house seems divided against itself. Materials for painting should be of good quality, as cheap grades do not last so long and are more difficult to spread. Whether the wall to be cov ered is outside or within, the surface should be carefully prepared before priming. If the old coat is in" fairly good condition, and not too thick, it may not be necessary to scrape it off, but rough places where the paint has cracked or peeled must be scraped and sand-papered. The surface to be coated should be absolutely dry, free from r dust, and smooth. Outdoor painting cannot be done well on a windy or showery day. Wind drives dust, insects, straw and papers against the wet paint, while rain streaks it and spoils the smooth ness Even for Indoor work, dry weather is preferable. The first coat of paint is more im portant than the outer coat, as it fills the pores of the wood or plaster and prevents moisture from getting in. This priming is best applied thin and smooth, with special notice taken to leave no pores of the surface material unfilled. It takes a week or more for the priming to dry properly. To add the surface coat to damp priming; is to make cracks and peeling certain, as the under coat will continue to contract until it is dry, and the re sulting tension will be overcome by the paint cracking. Inside painting follows practically the same rules as outside work. The main thing to remember is to put a thin, smooth coat on a dry, smooth surface. A thick coat of paint does not. as might be supposed, nave extra wearing properties. The reason is that the tensile atrensrth of a thick laver is so strong that it does not contract and J wood expands beneath It. it cracks un der the strain. In apparent contradic tion to this is the fact that three or four coats are more lasting than two. Colors are as imports it inside the house as out. A scientist who made experiments to test the eftect of cer tain colors on school children reported that red caused temporary stimula tion, followed by reaction and a head ache. The effect of blue was calmness and seriousness; green. Increased vi tality and happiness; yellow, amiabil ity; and black, melancholia. As a rule, pale tints are more ap propriate for coloring plaster walls. Cream, blue, green, soft yellow and Dink are tints most used. Pink and yellow, warm colors, are best in dark er rooms, ana the cooler colors, the blues and greens, for sunny walls. In painting several rooms it Is usually best to complete one room at a time, as this results' in a minimum of disturbance. The order of proce dure, if wall and floor are both to be treated is to do the walls first, then the woodwork, and finally the floor. The Institute for Technical Re search gives the following directions for refinishing old floors: For, old floors it is often advisable to apply a modern floor (tain to hide Imperfections, and then to apply a varnish, or. If deal red. tne so-called varnish-stains may be applied In two coat work. On rough splintery floors that could not be made to present a good appearance by the use of var nish. It is customary to apply so-called floor paint which contains color pig ments of various kinds and dries to a very hard, durable, wear-resisting sur face. Another method of finishirtg floors is to scrape them thoroly so that a smooth surface may be offered. After lightly sandpapering, a coat of liquid wood filler is applied, and then two coats of varnish, allowing at least a dav between coats. Many painters omit the filler and apply three coats of varnish, with excellent results. Dorothy Dix Talks BY DOBOTHT BIX Wsrla's Highest Pal Wessasi Writer. The lover's Cathechlsm 8.

When Dexter Runnels scampered blithesomely up the brownstone steps of the Dolliver home at five minutes to 3 he fully expected that within the next two hours Marion would begin spelling her last name with a capital R. The arrangements were all made. The minister had been engaged. Dex ter had his license and honeymoon railroad tickets and was dressed and groomed for the ceremony but Mar ion was not at home. Under Dexter's light brown over coat were his best clothes. They were not full dress, because It was going to be an informal occasion and because Dexter had no such outfit. He had never found time to get measured for formal afternoon clothes. His stock business occupied his attention every waking minute and he was almost in clined to begrudge the half-day need ed to have the connubial knot tied. But things were going to change. He had resolved to slow up his nerve racking business pace when he be came established in his new home. Xot only hadT he resolved it, but Mar ion had served an ultimatum that de manded it. "I'm going to have my Bhare of your time whether we get rich or starve," she had said. "It's not only that I won't be neglected, but this intensified activity of yours is making you absent-minded. It wouldn't surprise me if you forgot the date for our mar riage." But Dexter had marked the calen dar and he had not forgotten. Early that morning he had wired: "Will leave New Tork on 11:30 train." This gave him a good two hours' leeway, in case the train was late, for Marion's home city was only sixty minutes' run from the metropolis. But the train had been practically on schedule, so Dexter had time to spare. As he pushed the bell button beside the Dolliver door he felt that he was shedding his business cares. JSo more frenzied finance for him. He had in stalled an able manager in his office and nr he could take things easier. And Dexter had "slowed up" in an other way in the matter of caution. Inasmuch as his shoulders soon would be bearing the responsibilities of pro viding a livelihood for two. he had adopted a policy of "look twice." The first consequence of the new policy was a decision to back out of a deal in new motor stocks for which ar rangements had been made in Detroit. It looked like an opportunity to reap big profits, but there was also a chance of going financially flat. Under the old policy, he would have taken a chance; under the new one, he was afraid. So this very day he had sent a wire to Detroit reading: "Call off the deal for a while. I've got cold feet. The bell was not answered, so he pressed it again: but still there was no response. It was queer that Marion's father had not met him at the station with the automobile, but the fact that no one answered the bell was strange. However, he reasoned probably Marion was busy dressing, and the rest of the household occupied with other matters attending the marriage. There were no sen-ants. He tried the door, but it was locked. He went to the rear entrance, but en countered no more success there. Furthermore, the blinds were down, a fact he had not notloed, when he ap proached the house. His mind had been-too occupied. Xow it was occu pied fully as much, but less abstract edly. A very concrete problem con fronted Dexter. .Finding all the doors locked, he went to the garage. The door was fastened, but thru a window he ascer tained the car had been removed. It looked as if the Dollivers had gone for an all night trip, else the garage door would have been left open.- Dexter, for all of his lifelong resi dence in New Tork, had never seen the avhirlpool of Niagara: but now he Rack along the cement driveway. A ad an idea of how it would feel to be caught in the seething vortex, for his brain had been transformed into a maelstrom. He was dazed as he turned from the garage and started call from the house next door brought him to a halt. "Mr. and Mrs. Dolliver and their daughter went away this morning in their car," said a man in a smoking Jacket, looking out of a window. 'They had a trunk fastened on be hind, so I suppose they've gone for a tour." "Thanks," returned Dexter, weakly, and he staggered from the premises and wandered aimlessly down the street, suffering from a wide-awake nightmare. He obtained a room In a hotel and sat down o study the problem; but the more he thought the worst the situation appeared and the less he could make head or tail of it. Marion had left him in the lurch, there seem ed no doubt of that, but it also seemed that she might have gone to the trouble to let him know that she had changed her mind. Surely there must be some good reason, and he was resolved to find her and learn what it was He could think of no more probable destination for the Dolliver motor party than Rochester, where Mr. Dol liver's brother resided. Dexter had visited 'the brother in company with Marion and a mntual liking had de veloped between the two men. Dexter went to the telephone, and after a half-hour wait got in connec tion with Marlon s uncle at Rochester. and asked whether he expected a visit Irom his brother. "Tea," was the reply over the"wire. "I received a telegram this morning that they were coming by automobile, but they haven't arrived." Dexter was not long in acting on this information, and a half hour later found him in a taxi cab running at high oced along the road to Rochester. Altho the car was traveling at a forty-mile clip, it seemed to Dexter to be only crawling. He urged the driver to increase the- speed, and the throttle was opened still further and the auto bumped and swayed over the turnpike. They have a good start," Dexter thought: "but I ought to catch them, unless they've stopped at a hotel along the way." He was worrying about this new possibility when the taxi rounded a curve and came upon a machine drawn up beside of the road. One of the wheels was Jacked up. and a man was replacing a punctured tire. Dex ter gave him a casual glance, and then his gaze rested on a girl standing be side him. rstop!" he called to the driver. rising aoel thumping that individual on the-'back. The taxi went a good half block before it could be brought to a stop and was turned around and headed back.

She was oo busy with Gardner and her English teacher that she seldom was free in the. evening, and we missed her dreadfully. 1 think perhaps Bob missed her bright clever chatter more than I did. I had not told her anything of Robert's attitude toward finances. In reality, I did not think it would Us therefore, why talk about It? But as the days passed and he adhered to his resolution altho I knew he often waa without money by the time .the week was over I became worried, then annoyed and a bit angry. Why couldn't he be sensible? I hated this running out every night for my dinner. While it had been a change at first, the season was now in full swing, and tired as I was. it was a terrible effort to brace up and run about to restaurants, I never thought the time would come when I would long for Mrs. Lane's dining room. But there were many nights when I could have cried, the longing to go home and eat my dinner was so strong. I never let Robert know this, how ever. I had become a bit, afraid as to what he m'ght do. It was the little chcHRes in Robert's attitude toward me that hurt me the most. He never brought me a flower or a box of candy, as he used to do. I knew he had no money, yet Ji felt aggrieved that he neglected the little attentions he at first never failed to give me. Then too, he was growing careless in his manner. I realize now that it was absent-mindedness more than anything else. But he fa'led to recognize the little amenities of social life of which a woman thinks so much. "Robert, you must not be so care lesE!" He had stalked into the res taurant ahead of me, then sat down at the table before I had. "Careless about what?" "About little things. Tou used to be so polite, so gallant, and now you act sometimes as if you did not know what was proper at all." "I am too busy th'nking, I guess. Excuse me if 1 have done some gauchy thing." was rushing to the girl, who was pre paring to enter the tonneau, where an elderly woman was seated. "Marion!" Dexter exclaimed, seiz ing the girl by the arm. She looked at him in palpable amazement and her face" grew white as the drew back. The man at the wheef looked up, and a stern expression crossed h's coun tenance when h recognized the new comer. x "Mr. Runnels. I believe." he said coldly. "What is the meaning of this, may I ask? Have you taken leave of your senses, young man?" Dexter was nonplused by the strange reception, and felt like answering Mr. Dolliver'a question in the afflr-matlve. He tried to give tongue to an explana tion, but in as much as there waa nothing for him to explain, -he found it difficult. "Tour feet seem to have warmed up somewhat," was Mr. Dolliver'a dry .re mark, as he approached Dexter. Marion had entered the machine in a seml-faintlng"" condition, and was being supported by her mother. "I don't just what do you mean?" Defter sputtered, addressing her father. The latter, his facestill stem, drew a rumpled sheet of paper from a pocket and handed it to Dexter, who read tbe line of blue capital letters ex tending across it. "Call off the deal awhile, I've got cold feet. His mind a worse muddle, if pos sible, than before, he gazel dumbly at the typewritten address: "Miss Marion Dolliver, 623 Lake avenue, Brockton, N. Y." A sickly smile crept over his face. "I got the messages mixed," he said, and sank wearily to the running board of the car. Reconciliation proved difficult, but it was accomplished, and twilight saw the Dolliver machine, with Dexter as a passenger, drive up to 6 3 Lake avenue One of Dexter's first acts was to seize an evening paper and scan the stock cxlumna He looked up with a smile of satisfaction. "Marion, I've made a fool of myself by getting those messages twisted, but it's meant a twenty thousand dollar profit for me for a In Detroit they're probably puzzling over my message: 'Will leave New Tork-on 11:30 train,' but the Mars motor stock must have been purchased, because my countermanding order was not re ceived and the paper says the stock soared on the market today. "Marion, will you forgive me if I! promise not to be absent-minded ny more?" "I'll try," aha told h'm. a light of! sympathy and understanding in her eyes.

Thinking about what?" "Whether to go on working for Burch or commit suicide." Not a glimmer of a smile lightened his som ber face. "What are you talking about?" "Tou wanted to know what I was thinking and I told you." "Nonsense!" "It IS non:ense to hesitate, isn't it?" "Robert Meredith, have you been drinking?" "No. unfortunately. Jt is only be cause I had no money to buy a drink with that I haven't been, tho." "Please, Robert, don't talk like that It makes me so unhappy when you drink." -"I can't see that you are uproar iously happy when I do not." The tears were very near, and I was thankful to see the waiter hovering In the offing with the check. I had ordered as simply as had Robert, and rose from the table, unsatisfied. I would not allow my check to exceed his. and often ate a hearty lunch be cause of the need of more food when I worked so hard. But I had remained at work all that luncheon hour, one of the girls bringlng me a sandwich. That, combined with what I consid ered Robert's unreasonable attitude, made me eel so discouraged that as soon as we reached the street, I com rhenced to cry, "What's the matter?" Robert's tone was gruff, unsympathetic. "Nothing much. Tired. I guess." "I expect you are. I'll take you home, then you'd better turn in. I am going over to Marion's for a little while. She telephoned me today she wanted to see me." I started to object, then caught my self. Robert had told me so frankly of his Intended visit, had also told of Marion's message, that I couldn't in decency show my jealousy. Had I not been so tired I should have of fered to go with him. But I longed for rest. "Remember me to Marion, and tell her I would have come along had I not been so tired." Robert's look, as T said this, said as plainly as words, "Walt until you are asked." (Tomorrow Robert's great idea.1 that we are led along and have no fear.

Guest. 1 If Stein way and Other Pianos. 81 KsiMks Ave. Phone 4108 ON SECOND THOUGHT BY JAY E. HOUSE. (From Philadelphia Pabllc Ledgtr.) Asked to speak to the good of the order, Henry Ford expressed the opin ion that the country's greatest need i teachers. Mr. Ford is one of those qualified to express an opinion. Of all the great educators who cannot read fine print very well, he Is the moat notable and highly esteemed. Mr. Ford's record along educational lines not only is impressive but unique. Moat of us are permitted to reveal our Ignorance for nothing It cost Mr. Ford many thousands of dollars to dis close the fact that he doesn't know much. While we admire the courage of our favorite writer. Mr. Arthur Brisbane, we lament his lack of discretion. In an editorial paragraph devoted to Theodore Roosevelt's idiosyncrasies as an equestrian performer, Mr. Bris bane expresses the opinion that Colo nel Roosevelt wasn't much of a rider. The people not only will resent Mr. Brisbane's frank expression of opin ion, but they may go further; they may hold a mass meeting. It is not beyond the bounds of poFsibility that they may adopt a set of ringing resolu tions. One may abuse the people al most at will. But he fnust let their traditions alone. However, on the point that no equcF trian statue of Colonel Roosevelt should be set up. we string along with Mr. Brisbane. No. man. great or small, should be preferred to posterity in the painful 'act of riding on horsebacV. In this connection the perspicuity of the artist responsible for the eques trian statue of tleneral "Mad" An thony Wayne at Valley Forge deeplv impresses us. He had the courage and the sense of fitness to depict Gen eral Wayne 1 in the only position In which a man may rest easily in a sad dle. That ought to start the argument. Which is, we may say in confidence, the purpose of this intimate and frankly unconventional revelation. The sacrosanct has again been vio lated, if that is the word for it, and our disinclination to look anything ui in the dictionary leads us to believe it is. New Tork trembles with indigr.a- tion. A pale civilian arose in the grananaiia in jncKwnviira recemiy and called Hon. "Babe" Ruth a "bid piece of cheese." Let it be said, how ever, to the credit of the New "York sporting writers, that they avenged the insult to the extent of their no mean abilities. Their descriptions of the spasm of fear which seized the crim inal when the Hon. "Babe" Icipcd into the stand ran into columns. In our younger and more impetuous days the repartee of the grandstiml was sand upon our mental gear.v Th fullness of 3'eara enables us to regard it as the most unctuous of the. uncon scious humor. Of all the incidents of the glorious summer which receded into autumn last September, we recall none so highly amusing as that of the wild-eyed, meek and humble fol lower of the Athletics who arose in hi seat at Shlbe park and called Ty Cobb a "big bonehead." Having introduced the subject of "cheese," we are minded to permit readers of the column to revel with us In Adelaide's latest-Jibe at that sturdy product of the dairy. We had reached that stage of our repast which for merly, and in happier days, preceded the walnuti and tha wine. Adelaide was toying in a dilettante sort of way with the casein. "Don't you like it?" we asked in the solicitous voice of a husband who expects shortly to an nounce his intention of spending the evening downtown. "Like it!" chortlod Adelaide, as her lip curled in disdain. "Like it! I wouldn't bait a rat trap with it." The moral is so obvious that we I hesitate to point It out. It is. that the t numorwi occasionally rises above her environment. Mrs. Charlie Chaplin is quoted a saying she wants neither a divorce nor her husband' money. We are not familiar with the details of the Chap lin imbroglio, having in the course of our casual and somewhat desultory reading overlooked the newspaper stories of the affair. But we take it Mrs. Chaplin's desire is that of nearly every other woman for whom the mar,taI adventure loses its glamour: i she wants to make hr husband as uncomfortable possible. A man in Mr. Chaplin's position i actuated by no such petty motives. All he wants to do Is build a million dollar house across the street from the shabby cottage In which his for mer wife and his successor eke out a bare existence.

Clippings from newspapers pub lished in the cities where Galli-Curci has sung this spring tell of the prima donna's care of her health and faith fulness to regular exercise and rest. She believes people are paying for and hoping for the best she can give them and that it is her place to satisfy them.

Don't Spoil Your Hair By Washing It When you wash your hair, be care ful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries tne scalp and make the hair Drittie. The best thing to use is Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap ana Deals anytning else an to pieces. You can get this at any drug store. and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han dle.

Do ycj remember some of the emo tions you were experiencing about three years ago today when the papers had flaunting ffieadlines of War and the boys yo actually knew and played with were talking of when and how they could Join that mass of fighting men across the ocean in a strange country? Do you remember how all young men looked to you and stood out different from what they had ever been before and you gazetr fascinated at each one, strange or known, think ing why that very boy will be a sol dier arid may be killed by a German gun in only a few weeks. It was as strange and hard to comprehend as if by some magic or time tney were to march away to the Civil war about which you knew almost as much as the then raging conflict. And do you re member how you began to love them each and, every one and to want to do things for them and to make over them And do you remember about two years ago now when most of them were over or going and the papers were full of the big spring drive ana the allied troops were falling by the thousands? And people you knew were there and you got up early each morning fearing to open the paper yet not caring to do anything else, and how vou stood in front of the bulletin board reading the fearful messages and how the casualty lists began to grow?

But a num ber of months ago she put on both a pin and a ring and the thing seemed settled. They were both popular Washburn people. People sat back and said at last it Is settle!, and the couple were so interested in one an other that they attended only a few parties snd sort of deserted their crowd. But alas! recently, so they say, the ring has vanished, the pin has been returned and she has been seen more than once with one of the most heart smashing, most llon-among-the ladies-men of the town, who heralds or follows broken engagements many times.

See offer below. Millions of Them Millions of teeth are being cleaned in a new way. You see them everywhere white, glis tening teeth. Ask about them. You will find the owners are now fighting film. Film is the great tooth wrecker. Most tooth, troubles are now traced to it. And film is the reason why well-brushed teeth discolor and decay. How Film Wrecks Teeth Film is that slimy coat which you feel with your tongue. It clings to teeth, enters crev ices and stays. The ordinary tooth paste does not dissolve it, and the tooth brush alone can't end it. Film is what discolors r not the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. So, despite the tooth brush, all these troubles have been constantly increasing. Now dental science, after years of search ing, has found a way to combat film. The facts have been proved by five years of clinical and laboratory tests. The method is now embodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent. Leading dentists all over America are urging its adoption. And mil lions of teeth now show what it caa do. Watch Yours Whiten A 10-Day Tube of Pepsodent is offered now to anyone who asks. This to quickly show all people what it does. For your sake and your children's sake we urge this ten-day test. Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant of albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to day by day combat it. But pepsin must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. So this method long seemed barred. Now science has made it possible by discovering a harmless activating method. And everyone who will, can daily fight this film. A Test is Free to AH This question needs no argument. The re sults are quick and apparent. Simply send the coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absenca ot the d:-',y film. See how the teeth whiten as the fixed film disappear. You see the results wherever you look see teeth uniquely white. And you know tnosv white, clean teeth mean safer teeth. Find out how folks attain them. See the re sults on your own teeth. Then judge for your self what is best for you and yours. Cut out the coupon so you won't forget.

Same Effect as Ratification. ''The effect of this resolution on all the war legislation will be precisely the effect that the ratification and proclamation of the treaty would have had.

On the other hand, laws that were to continue in effect for a. tlnfe after the ratification andproclamation of the treaty of peace will continue in effect for the specified time after the passage of this resolution. The reso lution, therefore, has no effect upon existing laws other than the effect that the ratification and proclamation of the treaty of peace would have had. 'Section three provides for the re sumption of reciprocal trade relations between Germany and the United States for a period of f orty-f ive days and further provides that such recip rocal trade relations shall be norma- nently established when tha president has ascertained and announced that Germany has declared the termination of the war and has made the re nouncements on behalf fit Itself and nauonaia wnicn are specified ing grounds: That it will cause the United States to lose its hold on the $TiO,000.000 worth of German property seized during the war and will make the ships taken subject .o libel in neutral ports.

PENWELL UNDERTAKING CO. J flOn-COS-010 Quiuoy Street. riioue 192 r and TT70 i3fip p THE SNAPPY LIME DRINK 1918 S C. TAKE UP TRASH HAULING C. of C. and City !isouss I'lans i Keep City Cleanly. A plan whereby the city would con tract with a responsible party to haul trash from the business nouses of the city and. later perhaps, from the resi-j dence districts was discussed at a I meeting of the civic fire prevention committee at the Chamber of Com merce today. A special committee, consisting of Milton Tabor, chairman; W. W. Webb. C. K. Kldridge. O. K. Swayze and V K. Kirk, was appointed to confer wtli the city commissioners, the fire marshal and fire inspector rel ative to action by the city along these lines. V. W: Webb asserted that there was a tendency on the part of the city offi cials to put too many burdens on the shoulders of the individual citizens. He said the business men of the city desired to comply with the city regu lations regarding removal of trash, but that he did not think they could be arrested for violation, when they were unable to get their trash hauled regu larly. He said it was up to the city to see that the trash was hauled and that j the citizens would gladly pay ineir share of the expense. He urged the trash collections to be put under cine commiss:oner, and that the city enter into contract with 'some reliable man or company to haul the trash. He would have the expense proportioned among the business men. on a sliding scale regulated by the amount of their refuse, and have the city hire a spe cial clerk to make and mail out bills to the business houses and homes to pay for hauling the trash and for maintenance of the clerk and to meet other expense incidental to the under taking. He said the city could do this cheaper than the individuals and. at the same time, assure reduction of O. K. Swayze said, if the city coulM grant a certain company witn a mo nopoly to haul garbage, on which a profit is made, it should also collect the trash, on which no profit is nmde. The city departments would sidestep this duty it they could, he said. W. H. Gnsche said that shingle roofs were largely responsible for fires, and that the city should pass an ordinance prohibiting shingle roofs. Joseph Hanlon, city fire marshal. ,T. Hussey. state fire marshal and the city commissioners wero present at the meetings and gave the city's side of the question. Hanlon declared Topeka was the dirtiest cjty of its size in the United pStates. Me urged, co-operation of the citizens with his department in keep ing trash but of backyards, alleys and streets. The fire loss of the United States in a year amounts to a billion dollars, Hussey told the committee. He said Kansas r.eeded a building code that would restrict certain kinds of con struction. He said he hoped the next legislature would pass such a meas ure. Teaching of the fire prevention idea In the schools was one of his recommendations. The new ordinances pertaining to waste on which first reading has been held were discussed at the meeting. COMMISSION" TO I1AXLOX? Marshal of Court May Iseue Deputy ship to Police Chief.

Work on the $20,000 addition to' the Piersen Manufacturing company's plant at 700 East Eighth street was begun this morning. The addition is to be 100 by 125 feet and, it is ex pected, will be ready for occupancy within sixty days. Growth of the busi ness may make further enlargements necessary in the near future, it was said. Machinery for installation in the new addition is already arriving and the entire equipment is scheduled for receipt by the time work is completed. A portion of the addition will be oc cupied by the paint shop in which the finish is put on Piersen motors; the testing department where the motors are tested before shipment, and the heat treating department where the parts are heat treated and tempered. These rooms will be furnished with fire proof hollow tile walls, metal ceilings and cement floors. The remainder of the building will be occupied by the finished parts store room, the finished motor storeroom and an extension of the assembly de partment. The assembly department Is organ ized along the latest lines on what is known as the progressive assembly plan. By this system each workman is supplied with certain parts of the motor. The main casting starts in at the beginning of the assembly line, and each man adds his particular part and passes it e.long to the next man-. The INVENTIVE GENIUS MAKES CALOMEL DELIGHTFUL Calomel, the Most Valuable of Drugs, Now Purified From Its Nausea and Danger "Calo tabs" the New Name. The medicinal virtues of calomel are in no way connected with its nauseat ing and dangerous qualities, as is proven by the fact that the new calo mel tablet, called Calotabs, is free from objectionable effests yet retains all of the liver-cleansing and system purifying qualities of the old-style calomel. For biliousness, headaches, constipation and indigestio-n. and wherever calomel is essential, the new de-nauseated calomel tablet is a prac tically perfect laxative. To inspire public confidence in this new discovery the manufacturers have authorized druggists everywhere to re fund the price if the customer is not "perfectly delighted" with Calotabs. Sold only In original packages, sealed. Price, thirty-five cents. One tablet at bedtime, with a swallow of water. lsTo taste, no nausea, no griping, no salts. You wake up in the morning with a clean liver, feeling fine, and a hearty appetite lor Dreakfast.

By this plan each man does certain things and soon becomes very expert at his particular work. Thus, the time required for training men is re duced to the minimum, and at the same time the speed "and efficiency which the men develop turns out mo tors at s higher rate and of a uniform quality not attained where each man assembles a, complete motor. The contract for the new addition is being handled by George Senne, To peka .contractor. EARTH' OFF THE PRESS TODAY First Xumber of Santa Fe Magazuie Since Government Control. The value of farm products in Kan sas in 1919 exceeded that of 1918, the best prior year, by $154,495,175, ac cording to figures compiled by J. C. Mohler, secretary of the state board of agriculture, for the April number of "The Earth," the Santa Fe's maga zine. "The Earth." edited by J. F. Jarrell, came off the press Tuesday. This is the first issue since the pub lication was suspended at the begin ning of the period of government con trol of the railroads. The total value of farm products for the year was $746,512,500. The total value of livestock was $340,499, 377. Secretary Mohler, in an article entitled, "Kansas the Farm State," gives an interesting statement of the last year's progress, concluding: "When the resources of Kansas are fully developed, the state will sustain a vastly increased population. No state, perhaps, offers greater oppor tunities than Kansas, or promises more to those who will intelligently till the soil." The April number of "The Earth' contains interesting agricultural news from all parts of the great southwest served by the Santa Fe lines. Among the more important articles is an ac count of the recent and successful de velopment of farming in New Mexico; the story of Oklahoma's fine farm rec ord for 1919 and predictions of in creased valuations of farm land in that stale; the story of the agricul tural development in the Arkansas valley of Colorado; the big crop yields in the Salt River valley of Arizona and the opportunities to be found in the San Joaquin valley of California. The magazine Is profusely illus trated with scenes thruout the south west and the front page is adorned with a photograph of a typical Kansas wheat field during the harvest season. OPEN NEGRO CAMPAIGN HEBE BRIDE IS JEALOUS Indian Oil Croesus' Wife Guards Him Closely. Guardian Brings -Witnesses to ProTe W ard Has Child's Mind. Winfield, Kan.. April 7. The guar dian of Jackson Barnett, known as the world's richest Indian, today intro duced several witnesses in th habeas corpus hearing here, in an effort to show that his ward was incompetent. C. J. O'Hornett. guardian, seeks to annul the marriage of Barnett to Mrs. Anna Laura Lowe and return his ward to Oklahoma. Carl W. Casey, croceryman of Henryetta. Okla., the home of Barnett, testified that after marriage of Bar net tto Mrs. Lowe he was sent to Cof feyville, Kan., by Mr O'Hornett to as certain if Barnett was happy. He said he put up at the same hotel where the Barnetts were staying, but that Mrs. Barnett kept" such close guard over her husband he did not get a pri vate conversation with him. He said he later obtained an audi ence with him in the office of Mrs. Barnett's attorney at which time the Indian told him he .wanted to go home to get his auto and some clothes. Mrs. Barnett, he said, claimed Barnett was happy in his matrimonial venture. Most of the witnesses today were put on for the purpose of showing Bar nett was mentally defective. Oscar Norton of Henryetta. a bank er, testified that Barnett did not know the value of money. He said he had tested him by giving him the wrong change on checks. Other witnesses testified that Barnett's mind develop ment would only compare with that of a child from 3 to 6 years of age. The case is being bitterly fought by both sides.

Plans for the construction of $1,- 000,000 worth of new dwellings ,in Topeka have been made by the out look committee of the Chamber of Commerce, and scores of new resi dences will be under construction soon if the business men of the city give their support .o the- committee. According to William Horley. chair man, the directors of the Chamber of Commerce will be asked to approve the plan within a week. It is planned to raise $200,000 paid up capital, as sessing the business men of the city, according to the number of their em ployes and volume of business. 1 The money will be placed in a revolving fund. As soon as the houses are -built and the first payment received from the purchaser, building and loan asso ciations will handle the accounts, thus turning the money back to the eomr mittee for more homes. A tract of land may be purchased and a new sub-division platted, it was said. Where deals are made before hand, the customer's wish regarding details of construction will he adhered to. By helping in the solution of the housing problem, business men of To peka will save thousands of dollars annually, Horley said. t, YOU MAX PAY TOCK TAXES NOW.

"Paying taxes at .this time -also would expedite the handling of the work in the treasurer's office. Those desiring to pay the last half of their taxes now should send in their re ceipts for the first half so the second half payment may be indorsed on the receipt." SANTA FE NOTES.

What Oil osfosiodhry earns on M 1 1 'HE price of gasoline is high when compared to the price asked five years ago, but the price would be much higher if it were not for the. long list of useful products made from that portion of the crude which is left after the gasoline and refined oils have been removed. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) makes a wide range of products from this residue each product render ing a definite, useful service to mankind, and each bearing its share of the cost of production, thereby helping to keep down the price you pay for gasoline. The petroleum chemists in the laboratories of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) constantly are at work trying to develop new processes which will enable the Com pany to utilize every fraction of the crude oil, thus eliminating waste. This means husbanding the country's re sources by taking from the crude oil the maximum number of useful products, and recovering a maximum yield of each. To do this is the constant aim of the Company. Ofxincisjrcl Oil Coznponr (Indiana) -'J 910 So. Michigan Ava, Chicago. EL
