A coroner's inquest into the death of Andrew Hartwick, 64, park keeper at Ripley, jvho was shot and killed by a Mexican in the east end of the park Thursday morning, was in pro gress this afternoon in the city court. Mrs. Mary Randall, 203 Swygart street, who was on her way to a gro cery store at the time of the shooting, was taken to the park this morning with the coroner's jury, where she ex plained what she had witnessed. State ments that the Mexican, Manuel Lopez, with whom she talked, turned and ran, or that he was nervous, or that she saw somethinghiny in his hand, were incorrect, she told the jury. Mrs. Randall said as she passed out her back gate, a block from the park, she heard a shot and saw young Mexican Lopez walking along the path in the park in a northerly di rection. She followed along the same path on her way to the grocery. The path bends around to the east, along the creek. Suddenly, she said, a Mex ican, but not Lopez, appeared around the curve ahead of her and running swiftly past her', disappeared In the bushes. Hartwick; she said, then ap peared and after firing one shot at the fleeing Mexican, turned slightly toward the creek and sank to the ground. She said she passed around him and farther on along the winding path came upon Lopez, whose name she did not then know, and another Mexican. She said Lopez asked her what had happened and asked her if she thought the. man would die. Lopez and his companion then walked, not ran, away, she said. Lopez came thru five hours of gruel ling Friday afternoon without making a confession. Police are still con vinced, however, they said today, that he la the man who killed the park keeper. The hearing was adjourned at noon, to be resumed at 3 o'clock. The coro ner's Jury will decide how Hartwick carne to his death and by whose hand. If they find that Lopez is probably the man. the Mexican will be arrested on a state warrant and tried on a mur der charge. Otherwise he probably will be released. Joaquin Padillo, the other Mexican who was at first sus pected of the erime, has been released, it was said. i PIPE ORGAN RECITAti SUNDAY. j Dean Henry V. Stearns to Give Pro- pram at Auditorium.

Hearing Involves Distribution of Phone Rates. x Members of the state public utilities commission have defied a contempt ci tation from Judge A. S. Van Valken burg of the United States district court for the district of Missouri, Members of the commission, have declared they wi'l ignore a restraining order by the Missouri 1-deral judge who ordered suspension of a rate hearing set for Monday. The hearing involves the dis tribution of rates between toll and lo cal companies.- To Investigate Charges. Recently the utilities commission gave notice that it would investigate the toll distribution contracts between the Southwestern Bell Telephone com pany and the independent local com panies of this state. The Bell company this week went before Judge Van Val kenburg with an application for a re straining order. The order was issued and was served on members of the commission by a deputy United States marshal. The ommission then talked; over provisions of the writ and decided to proceed with the hearing. The suit to enjoin action by the commission came before the federal court because of diversity of residence between the companies. It calls upon the state commission to establish its authority for the investigation of rates and seeks to restrain such hearing un til a proper showing is made. Fol lowing a conference, tho, members of the commission decided to hold their hearing first and to test Judge Van Vaikenburg's order later. Whether the federal judge will now seek to en force his decree thru contempt cita tions for disrespect of his order, is a matter of much speculation. Against Three Commissioners. The restraining order is directed Dersonallv nvninar th 1, sioners Clyde M. Reed, Fred S. Jack et w. oreeniear. It sets forth a. niiHfinn 1i.l.i. j ju. inuinnjii tj l L II K commission and orders cancellations of iue nearing set tor Monday. It is stated by members of the com mission that sending companies re ceive 25 per cent of the toll charge up to 80 cents. The receiving com pany does not participate in the reve nues. The toll company receives the balance. Commissioner Reed was asked if the action of the commission was in the form of defiance of the court's order and bordered on contempt. He re plied with a story to the effect that Bob Ingersoll once displayed his dis pleasure at the order of a court. Asked if he was seeking to display contempt for the court, he replied: "No, your honor, I am trying to conceal it." The order, commissioners stated, will not interfere with hearing of the case. They instructed their legal de partment to immediately file an ap plication for dismissal of the restraining- order. SESSION LAWS OUT SOON Publication 1921 Legislative Measures Ready Wednesday.

Dry weather in the western two thirds of the state and too much mois ture in the eastern counties was re sponsible for the unfavorable show ing. The stand in many counties is thin and a spotted showing is gen erally reported in the pessimistic re port. Green bugs are causing but little damage, altho the Hessian fly and chinch bugs are making a decided impression in the fields. Red rust is also reported in several counties and hail added to the damage and gen eral agricultural sorrow. Kansas will harvest 23 per cent of the total wheat acreage of the na tion. As against the present condi tion of 77.4 per cent, the May. 1920 report showed 83.4 on 7,603,880 acres, while two years ago there was pros pect for a 98 per cent yield from 10, 758,000 acres. 4,654,000 Acres of Corn. Secretary Mohler estimates 4,654.000 acres of corn for the state. About two-thirds of the acreage has been planted.

Planting to" date has been light. Potato conditions are given at 85.2 per cent, or a fraction of. 1 per cent under May last year. Prospect lh the big Kaw valley district, tho, is below the state average, and stands at 0 per cent. Kaw valley acreage is slightly above last year, while the state at large stands at about the 1920 fig ure of 47,000 acres. Alfalfa Hard Hit. Alfalfa has been hard hit. Its con dition is 59.2 per cent. This is a frac tion less than 29 per cent under the showing a year ago and is a drop of 6.13 points in a month. It is estimated that because of attack by aphis 15 per cent of the crop in the eastern third of the state will be plowed up.

The object of their conference was not stated Reports'that the visit of Purcell to!tor Brown said, and not only when Topeka meant another reduction in the force at the shops were practically confirmed in semi-official circles at the shops'." Information as to how much of a cut is to be made, and when it is to be effective, was scrupulously withheld however. Purcell and W. D. Deveny, shop superintendent, either evaded interviewers or declined to see them, today. Reports on the condition of rolling stock on the Santa Fe at the present time show that the road has Its quota of box-cars for the transportation of wheat in good condition. Unlike most of the other western roads, the Santa Fe has kept a force of men working on the grain cars while other lines were laying men off in every depart ment. The possibility presents Itself that the Santa Fe has its cars in condition and is dispensing with the men who have been employed in putting them into shape."

Dr. Karle G. Brown, city health officer, said today that every precaution must be taken to pre vent the spread of the disease. Vaccination is the only method of prevention. Doctor Brown said. Quar antine rules are frequently disregarded and in many cases the disease is not reported and the case does not go un der quarantine. Altho many cases are of light nature and are thought to be chicken pox, they are of character that may expose others to what may develop into a serious case. The dis ease is infectious, in any stage. Doc eruption has appeared on the skin, "Vaccination will wipe out the epl demic." Dr. Brown said. "But it has spread now to such an extent that vaccination is the only method that v" T B""w ,nat would be effective in checking It. Many 'cfhie",'eed'8al" ,h"d.

SOME HAVE SETTLED CLAIMS Davis Declares Federal Treas ury Only Owes $500,000,000. Roads Say Property IVot Re turned in Same Condition. Washington, May 21. Railroads to day attempted to collect $1,250,000,000 from the United States railroad ad ministration. Jn submitting the claims, the road managers charged in effect that the government during federal control of the. roads, failed to get its money's worth from labor employes at high wages. Charges Are Denied. Director General Davis of the rail- t road administration, who is adjusting tne claim, denied the charge of the railroad managers, declaring that the government owes them ifot more than -40 per cent of the amount claimed. uu,uu,uuo. Some roads already have settled for 40 per cent of their claims. The basis for the claims is the prom ise made by the White House when the roads were taken, over that they would be returned in the same physi cal condition in which they were re ceived. To carry out this promise, the rail road administration wrote Into its con tracts with the roads which were signed at the beginning of federal con trol clauses under which the govern ment was to spend as much for main tenance and new equipment as the roads themselves had spent In former time Maintenance Fell Short. This measure was to be corrected to cover rising wages and costs of ma terials, so that the physical work done should be equivalent to that for merly done by the roads. The railroad administration spent many millions on maintenance during federal control seeking to carry out this clause. But the roads now claim that the work actually done was short of the standard set by them bv one and one-quarter billions. IN CLEAN SWEEP v Yank Golfers Take All Fore somes at British Tourney.

The carnival given last evening by the Pa rent-Teachers association at Grant school was a big success in every way. Patrons of these entertainments have be come so used to unusual programs that they expect more than the average ama teur ierfornianee. and they were not dis appointed last evening. Kpirifininir with he uarade. which cou- -1 sisted of floats, clowns, and gaily trimmed autos representing the various attractions to be shown, led by the Industrial school band, followed by the directors of the. North Topeka Civic club riding in state, the hours were filled with a round of pleasure. North Topekans are known for entering whole beartedly into any enter tainment put on In North Topeka, and last right was no exception. A Mother Goose operetta, in the assem bly room at Grant school, in charge ot Miss Reed, contained a number of clever dances and songs. Miss Pront was re sponsible for the stunt, "Spring Salad, which was a delightful conceit, Among the other attractions were the Beauty Show, the Midget tent, tDixie land. Tent of Mysterv, Hindoo and Gypsy fortune tellers, Bathing Beauties, hog Show, Gypsy camp. Shadow pictures and the poiice women's cage." A discerning eye might have discovered many a staid business man of the North Side disguised as the old time "country rube," belligerent Paddies, "Weary Wil lies," clowns, in fact almost every character that could be imagined. Nor were the dignified matrons missing in this motley crew. But their appearance defies description and only by actually seeing them could their makeup be ap preciated. The hnhv Vrlinie under the direction of Ntbe PubticHealth Nursing association will open Tuesday morning at iu o oiock at me Community house, corner of Laurent and Jackson street. These clinlca will be held everv two weeks thruout the summer and should prove of inestimable value to the mothers of small children. Often in childish troubles a cure can be effected if attended to promptly. This is the object of these clinics nnd the physician who will be in charge is a baby specialist ami the mothers who give their babies the ad vantage of these free examinations may be assured their little ones are receiving the best of treatment. No charge is asked for advice or instructions for the care of the babies. Watchman Pluramer, stationed at the Union Pacific crossing ou Kansas avenue, has his troubles. He was knocked down recently and ceverely bruised by an auto which ran into him while he was in per formance of his duty, and he has no de sire to have the experience repented. Plammer says that often autoists drive almost upon the track when strain is ap proaching, disregarding his signal, and then blame him because the train comes so close. Only the other evening he snld, a man started to drive across In spite of his warning. When he was almost upon the track he perceived the headlight of the approaching train, and backed in a hurry, while the woman in the back seat screamed like a "bob cat." "And they blamed me." added Plummer. with a shake of his heud. I I don't know what they expected me to go, unless to pusn em dsck. i a none everything else to keep them off the track." But In Plummer's opinion the female of the species ia more deadly than the male. "Why." he explained, "I'll stop a woman driving an automobile stop her to save her from an accident, and she'll talk back real ugly sometimes., They'll ask who 1 think is driving this car only they gen erally put a 'darn' in somewhere. But then it's all in my day's work, and I reckon they're so scared they don't know w&at they sny," he added, as he signalled fVjr the stoppage of traffic to allow a switch engine to pass.

NO "YAPS" FROM KANSAS New York Traffic Cop Doesn't See License Tags From Sunflower State He's Looking for One. Cars from Kansas, and bearing the license plates of the state, must be careful in running by a traffic police man on a lower corner of Fifth avenue, New X""k. saysjhe New York Sun. Ho is watching fJr them. "You'd be surprised at the different places from which cars come," said the-cop. "And the funny thing about It is that I seem to have to call down out-of-town drivers all the time. I suppose it's because they don't know the traffic rules. "For the last two years I've, kept a record of the out-ofctown licenses that j ve nan to jut ihmvh vu i-cjjwh.. x vo got one from every state in the union, except one, and several from Porto Rico. "The missing state is Kansas. I'd certainly like to complete the list, and so I'm looking for a Kansas driver. He'd better watch, his step."

Making a party gown In twenty min utes, out of four yards of uncut ma terial sounds vastly improbable, not withstanding the fact the party gowns nowadays are rather bold in their ex posure, but Mrs. Juditha Blackburn, noted author, lecturer and teacher. Is going to impart the secret to the wom en of Topeka and prove It to them as well by building frocks before their eyes as she talks, In her lectures to be given In Warren M. Crosby's at 2:45 o'clock next Thursday, Friday and Sat urday afternoons. Not only Is she going to explain' how to make frocks, but she will di vulge the greatest secret of successful gown creating and building for the home dressmaker, that of making an exact replica of her own figure. The dress form which Is -an exact reproduction of the model is made from gummed tape pasted on a tight fitting ladies' vest. Women Can Make Own Clothes. Mrs. Blackburn says that women can all make their own clothes be coming to them, if they will only go at It In a scientific manner and apply a bit of psychology to tire job. "The trouble with the American woman in regard to her clothes is that she wears what some one tells her is 'the style', whether It is 'her style' or not; women should study themselves and select only those styles which re flects their own individuality and personality, which is the true style for them," said MrsBlackburn. And she further states; "French women of culture are not extreme; they are far more conservative in their dressing than the American. Extreme short skirts are worn only by the class o? women who frequent the cabarets, and the aristocratic French woman will not wear a thin Georgette crepe blouse without a wrap on the street, which sounds like excessive modesty to us in America." Mrs." Blackburn will also give a four weeks' course in dressmaking and tail oring at the Warren M. Crosby store, beginning Tuesday. May 31. Elabor ate seating and staee arrangements have been made for the occasion. HOLD ELECTRICAL EXHIBIT Topeka Electric Company Puts on Unique Display.

Ralph Gaw. assistant county at torney, found himself in an admirable position when the mother of Martha Lane, a 6-year-old negro girl, appealed to the district court from the order of the probate court, taking her child away from her. The girl was born six years ago, when Bertha Lane, the mother, was a single woman 15 years old.

Proceedings were started in the probate court.

When it came up for hearing before Judge George Whitcomb today, Gaw, who has since become assistant county attorney, had to defend, in his official capacity, the order he had made when he was probate judge. And he suc ceeded. Judge Whitcomb sustained his order. DEATH OF THE REV. WM. KNIPE. Manhattan Minister Burial and Mar riage Record Led In Kansas. The Rev.

"Gladys." the chubby faced little p':rl wno lives in the cottage across the road from No. tee, is the favorite of the golfers, masculine and feminine, of the Country club. She has her favor ites, too, and never fails to run out and greet the players she knows. Here is the latest printable story on golf told on the Topeka courses: A- golfer somewhat spirituously or gani7ed was staggering down the fair way attempting a fresh air cure before going home to visit his wife. He htt a long approach and upon reaching the preen severely reprimanded his caddy for not hunting the ball. "The ball Is right here, sir," saia the caddy, hand on the flag. Our home brew hero walked to the cup and looked down at his shiny ball gl5sfening therein. "Zash oil right, caddy, sash all right." he mumbled. "I appogishe. Gimme my niblick, please." .Toe Duncan's return to golf at Shawnee is good news to the Silver Xing chasers. A few years ago b fore Duncan moved to California his fflmiliar wlrM ivat recotrnlied fiftm jTT' No. 1 to No. S on the Highland ParR ard. He shoots a long accurate game and will be among the one-figure handicappcrs before the summer Is over. Ted Ray. the British golfer who captured the American open cham pionship at Toledo last year, has definitely decided not to return bo de fend his title at the Columbia Coun try club this year. As a result the trophy, emblematic of the premier golfing honors that America has to offer, has been packed up and Is now on its way back to "this country In custody of W. H. Home, a former South African open champion, who expects to Join the professional ranks here. In spite of the fact that Ray will not come to defend, his title, the Nelsonisms on Golf Written for The State Journal -by E. R. NELSON professional at the Topeka Country Club Push Shot Witb Iron. The push shot is a full iron shot when the ball rises quickly to its maxi mum height and continues straight until its force is spent. It differs from other shots In its tenseness of execution, shortened back swing and the body cominr first on the down ward swing. -r-n i i c Pro Nelson Sliowing tiio Top of Swing In Iron Snot. Play the ball back toward the right foot with your stance square. Grip the club very firmly "and keep more weight on the left foot than on the right. Press the hands forward in address. The left arm starts the club back. Bend the left knee in as the body turns. At the top of the swing the grrip is still firm with a straight left arm. Both feet are firmly on the ground. The swine has not the free dom of other shots, the muscles being tense a-na the swing slightly shorter. On the downward swing the body drops forward ahead of the swing putting most of the weight on the left foot. The ball is hit with a descend ing blow with both arms straight and almost stiff. The club head reaches well into the turf after the ball is hit. Then both arms are stretched to the limit on the finish. British golfing public has hopes that the cup will remain here only tempo rarily, for they are banking highly upon the prowess of either George Duncan, the British open champion titleholder, or Abe Mitchell, his partner, to win it back. Mrs. "Dick" Hayden, who has cap tured all precedents by shooting a 42 on No. 1 at the Country club rocently, has not given up. She took five golf lessons this week. U. S. GOUTERS IX ENGLAND. New York. May 21. America, will be strongly represented by team of amateur goirers wnen the competition for the British amateur eolf cham pionship title begins at Hoyiake, Eng- iana, on Monday.

Alber marie, Boston; Bobby Jones of At lanta, Qa.: Dr. Paul Hunter. Los An geles, Cal., and J. Wood Piatt of Philadelphia. This is by far the most formidable team of golf player that ever sailed from this country in quest of a foreign title and it Is hoped that some one of them will be fortunate enough to repeat the victory gained single handed by Walter J. Travis of Garden City, L. I., whem he won the British championship in 1904, and brought the trophy back with him. Before sailing from New York, Cap tain Fownes said: "Ours Is a won derful team but we realize that there are plenty of good players over the water and Great Britain's amateur golflhg stars are by no means played out as some reports would lead us to believe. i "We are not going over to lift the chamnionshln title and trophy but w are on our way to make a mighty good try.

Wood Piatt, the Philadelphia amateur goir cnampion is in ms 'JL'nd year, and such has been his work on the links dur itir the oast twft T-enr that he 1 rT1 n one of the most sensational players in the country. He Is a member of the White Marsh Valley Country club and the North Hills Country elub and Is known as the "giant-killer"' because of his nronensitv ror eliminating favorites from the national cnampionsnip. in xui'.t at ua k m on r, Piatt met Francis Ouimet in the third round and defeated him in one of the most senatlonal matches ever played in a na tional championship. The match ended on tne ;stn green in a onnaing rainstorm. Last year I'latt encountered S. Davidson Herron of Pittsburgh, the title holder, in the second round of the national amateur championship and defeated him by a mar gin of 2 to 1. Neither of these two amazing triumphs brought Piatt a cham pionship, for after defeating Ouimet at Onkmoilt, he succumbed the following day in the semi-finals to Herron, who then pro ceeded to defeat Bobby Jones for the title In the final. Again at the Engineers' clnb after dethroning Herron, Piatt was elimi nated rrom tne title event oy rsea Aina, or Milwaukee. Before the TTnlted States entered the war, Piatt held the Philadelphia Junior cham- Flonshlp. After he had been discharged roiu the service be immediately stepped into the limelight by his work in the 1919 amateur championship. The same year he played on the Pennsylvania Lesley Cup team, and again last year, and In thla Com petition has never lost a match. Last year Piatt won the Philadelphia amateur championship and also won the Nassau Invitation event, defeating Tom Armour, one of Great Britain's defending aces In the approaching, British champlon- ahlp, in the final wnicn was an extra noie struggle. In addition Piatt wttn half a doaeu other Invitation tournaments last year and annexed about the same number of medals for topping all others In qual ifying rounda. Plntt played 50 matches in tournaments during 1920 and was defeated In only four of them. JesM P. Guilford, Boston. Jeese P. Guilford of the Woodland Golf club, A,ubnrndale, Mass., was born at Man chester, N. H, 2d yeara aeo. Among amateur golfers he is known as the "siege gun" being one of the longest drivers in the country, but he la inclined to wildness at times. An excellent match player be makes good recorery from the rough and is a shade better than ordinary ou the greens. Recently during his southern trip Guilford made rftvernl course records and defeated aome of the elub professional on tbelr own links. Guilford has frequently won the state amateur championship of New Hampshire in addition to the Massachusetts state and open titles. Dr. Paul Hunter, Zos Angeles, Cal. Dr. Paul P.

Tuesday Ladies' Day Contestants at Country Club fc, a- 1 W "1 S1 Governor Allen has opened his golf season on the Country club links. Accompanied by his aide. Col. Charles Mitch.ell, a constituent, Har old Hawley. of the Herinston Country club, and a Topeka dub, the governor pounded out a perfect 68 last Satur day afternoon. The governor insists that he is a better player than anyone in that or any other foursome but admits that ho never wins. His ffame carries three strong points: He hits a low ball with a long: roll; he has a clean cut shot out of nearly any rough; and he is bril liant and most enjoyable company. If he and his partner seem to be lagging behind in the count he is most courteous in his failure to cast ob jections in case the scorekeeper ac cidentally drops a stroke or two. Yet he has a wonderfully well de veloped memory if his opponents neg lect to remember a shot in the grass. m -r The Governor "at Rest." "I am in love with the Country club course," he stated to members of the foursome the other day. "But for the life of me I cannot under stand Topeka. There are two golf courses in this town a town of 60, 000 inhabitants with a membership of 600. I never heard of such a big town with so many men with such short working hours." Tho governor talks nothing but golf while he plays. Efforts to swing his conversation into politics or affairs of state are fruitless. He will listen attentively but his answer usually is a commendation shouted across the fairway to a player who has just cleaned out a pretty brassie. The governor is a popular member of pny foursome that is so fortunate as to include him. J. R. Koontz in two rounds made two 3's on No. 2 at the Country club the. other day. If the slicera don't stop sending their drives over on No. 6 fairway from No. 4 tee at the Country club the golf cbmmittee will be forced to place a traffic cop Just north of the 200-yard stake. Monte Kistler estimates that his vintaged Buick has hauled 1,000 golfers to the Shawnee and Country clubs in the years that he has played golf and owned the car. "Noel Wood and I protest against the ridicule heaved at my wagon," he has warned. An Iola man in Topeka the other day said that the pride of the Iola Country club was the tin loving cup presented to Charles F. Scott by .the Topeka Press club following the mid winter tournament of the Kansas State Editorial association here in January.

Scott treasures above everything the tin. loving cup." The second women's day at -the Country club Tuesday brought out the largest gathering of golieresses of the season. If the interest In the feminine game increases this summer as it has the last two weeks under the guiding hand of Mrs. C. E. Gauit, Xopeka will have, when the first snow drifts Into the ravines, the largest representation of women players of any city Its sixe in the country. As a result of the two tournaments of the last two weeks dozens of les sons have been given the lair "sweet stickers" In the Dudley yard and daily the smartly attired twosomes, four somes and. mixed foursomes have been evident along the fairways Tuesday the Blind bogey contest was won by Mrs. Jack Sleepert The put ting contest was won by Mrs. W. B. UndeKraff. In the 4-hofe beeinnera' toerney Mrs. J. C.Mohler; was the vic tor. The blind bogey contest was entered by the women players who have qual ified as "veterans" of trie game thru past experience. It is a blind handi cap affair.

The beginners' tour. neys will last only a short time and then the new players will be gradu ated Into the "regulars." When hieh school and collee-x cease their grind in June. Mrs. Gault plans to enter a iresn -tist or players re cruited from among the vouneer aet of the Country club. "I am not look ing forward to the development of any sensational talent this year the fu ture is mv ambition." Mrs. Gault" ex plains. "By arousing Interest among the girls this year I am confident that next season Topeka will have a won derful representation of good golf snots." Incidentally, the arrival of the high school and college girls will guarantee a larger .delegation or the "junior players among the. men. The Conn try club has been woefully weak In young men timber for the last few years. No doubt the girls will bring them out. Miss Genevieve Funk entered the beginners events at the Country club Tuesday. After shooting the four holes with the mi-iron and making score that was seven under the best in that class she gracefully refused the prize declaring she had no rights owinff to past experience. The women golfers of the Shawnee club have been invited to plav every morning except Saturday and Sunday on the Country club links. This invi tation is extended that they may be come accustomed to the grass greens. Mrs. Gaurt. Country club chairman and Mrs. Flagler. Shawnee club chair man, are planning an inter-club tournament between the- women of the Shawnee and Country clubs next Thursday on the Country club course. The feature of the .Countrv club ringer score this week ia the tie lor first place between Frank Griggs and Harlow Hurley. Hurley has climbed up a notch since the last posting. The two have a chance to better their score by at least one point. Griggs undoubtedly will slip in a 2 or No. 8 as he Is hole high on his drive regu larly. Hurley stands the same chance on No. 2. Griggs reports a ringer of 3 on No. 8 and Hurley a S on No. z. Hif Felix, who shows a 29, will bring in a S on No. 3. a 4 on No. 6, and a 1 on No. 7 before the season shows much advancement. This will place him in the Griggs-Hurley 26 class and there tne score will stand unless a lucky 1 on No. 5 is holed out. The score to date: v Griggs Hurley Felix T.

Herbert Guild is establishing a rep utation as a Class A approacher at the Country club. His shots from off the green are among the best seen on the course this season. By the time the best golfers get done paying dues, et cetera, they are poor players. Mrs. C. E. Gault. It is due to Mrs. C. E. Gault that Topeka is to be represented creditably at the state tournament in June by enthusiastic feminine golfers. Mrs. Gault as chairman of the women's golf committee of the Country club has brought out more new players and has added more interest among the seasoned nlavers than has been indi cated in Topeka in the history of the game.. Mrs. Gault is the most experi enced plaver in the city today. She was one of the first women here to take up the game and she has ac quired that enviable ability or Demg able to defeat her husband. Lady Golf Chairman 4a4 n f 1 'r?$A- i t A Coming Golferess I 'J Mrs. Clarence B. Jordan. Mrs. Clarence B. Jordan of the Country club is one of the real stars of the woman s game. Her swing and stance have been described by Pro Nelson of the club as nearly perfect and she is developing her game with rapidity tliiii season. Mrs. Jordan was the winner of the ladies' day blind bogey event last week. She will be among -the Topeka women who will represent the capital city in the state tournament at Wichita in June. Mrs. Robinson would never take her husband's golf seriously. She was one of those people to whom all games are an absolute mystery. One -day she accompanied him to the links and followed him around, grumbling all the way. At last he landed in a bunker and spent some time foundering about in the sand. His wife sat down on the top of the bunker, opened her novel and said, quite affably: "You see, darling, I knew perfectly well that vou could do all your playing in one place if you wanted to." Pittsburgh Chronicle. Jack Burke, professional of the Town and Country club at St. Paul, the golfer who finished second to Ted Ray in the national open tournament at Inverness last year, tells C. E. Mc Brlde of Kansas City a good one that was pulled at the public course in St. Paul last Sunday. On Saturdays and Sundays the golf ers are sent off the first tee in four somes. Whenever the Etarter would have a threesome ready to go he would call for a single player and start the quartet on its way. The "pro" finally called to a lonely goirer wno had been standing near tne first tee for more than an hour. "I've seen you around here the last hour. You've got your clubs along, don't you want to play?" the profes sional inquired. "Sure. I want to play. I'm just wait ing Jor a chance to get in," the man replied. "Why didn't you step up," said the "pro," "I've been calling for single players for the-last hour." "Yes, I know you have," said the modest stranger, "but you see I'm married." Warren Bailey still leads the Shaw nee ringer score. Ke has cut two points from his last week's card and stands at the top of the list with a 33. Sumey, Whitaker and Middleton tie for third places with 35's. sumey sliced four from last week, Whitaker on and Middlton two. More interest is taken in the ringer at Shawnee this year than at the Country club and all players, regard less of their showing, are turning in their cards to Chairman Anderson of the tournament committee. These cards aid the chairman in regulating handicaps and enable players to watch the progress of their game.

The Shawnees should open a season theater tournament. Many delegates to the State Bank ers' convention in Topeka thy week brought their sticks with tlrem and trod the turf at the Shawnee and Country clubs. The golf propaganda among the Country club tennis players is making headway. Clarepce Jordan and Jack Merriam laid away the rackets for the clubs this week. When Tom Lee and Hugh MacFarland and Roy Thompson are won over the season will be con sidered a success. Chairman Anderson of the Shawnee tournament committee announces a flag event for Decoration Day. It will be a handicap medal play and all members are urged to enter. In one week Mrs. Dick Hayden has cut her famous 4 2 on the first hole to a "snappy twelve." "If everyone would be able to reduce his Iscore in such a proportion, golf would be a weird and wonderful game," Mrs. Hay den explains. A golfer dropped into a New York store to buy a driver, says the New York World. "This club is off balance," he re marked to the clerk, as he jiggled a nice looking brassie. "That Is a special order club. Let me have it, please," said the clerk nervously, piquing the curiosity of the shopper. The manager, an old friend of the golfer, happened along just then. "Bill." asked the customer, "what the deuce is the matter with this club? Just heft the darned thing, it's all off balance." Bill looked wise, and he looked all around carefully, then he replied, in a stage whisper: "Pete, that is the best club in the bog. It holds just two drinks of hooch. See here, how the handle is hollowed out." j And Scotland was vindicated. B. Q. Brlggs, the Shawnee club's slugging left hander whose drives are envied by every Highland Park player, travels the state regularly and carries his sticks with him. He reports an almost insane interest in golf Over KansuH especially in the towns of from three to five thousand. "They have a new caddy system at Marya ville," he said recently. "The boys run ahead of the players with wire f'.aES and plant them near the ball. Then they chase on and wait for the shots. No one has been killed so far." Elmer T. Peterson, editor of Gov ernor Allen's Wichita Beacon, has written the following clever answer V the Topeka committee In charge of the tournament of the Kansas Editorial Golf association to be held on the Country club course May 25-S: Ynu and each and all of you are hereby notified that the undersigned baa acknowl edged personal servi-e of one Instrument dated May 1, 1021. to-wlt One summons to appear at the Topeka golf links May 23 and 2i, A.

It is the story of a novelet who saves the estate of an invalid heiress from a coterie of rascals. The situations are thrilling- and there is a mild leaven of comedy in the development of the story. When you think of "Whafs Worth While," you think of something wholesome and pure and, thinking thus, so will your actions be, and in doing "What's Worth While," there's a feeling goes with it a peace of inind and exaltation that only worth while thinps can hrii.g-. Lois Weber has picLurized her lat est origina I story, "What's Worth While?", and it will be shown at the Isia the last three days. At the Noviiy. (By Elizabeth A'nn.) Taylor and Francis tops the top of the vaudeville bill at the Novelty thea ter for the first three days of next week. "Nothing Serious." is the title of the offering presented by this youthful pair of ciever entertainers, who come to the vaudeville stage with a most excellent record as musical artists. Joe Taylor, a breezy, person able youngster, is a comedian of the "nut" variety, who seemingly can make a wooden Indian laugh.

May Francis, his able partner, is a very pretty and attractive girl who will be remembered by many theater goers as having been associated with severaL-mubical comedy successes, her last engagement being with Raymond Hitchcock's "Hitchy Koo." Her re markable voice once heard will not soon be forgotten, inasmuch as she possesses, a double voice with a range of three octaves. Miss Francis is a graceful dancer and makes an ideal foil for her partner's "nut" comedy. Another feature act on the program will be P.rosius and Brown, billed as the "Brainless Wonders." In the variety and daring of the feats per formed, and in the comic effect of the work of the comedian of the team, the cycling and roller-skating offering presented by this pair is more inter esting and applause compelling than in any like act seen for several sea sons. Billed as the "Brainless Won ders," they have little difficulty in living up to this extremely unique and odd title, if their sensationally daring stunts are taken into consideration. Bandy and Fields, a singing, talking and dancing act; DeMaria Five, "The Musical Troubadours" and an act the nature of which has not yet been an nounced, comprise the balance of the vaudeville program. The seventeenth episode of "Kingof the Circus." fea turing Kddie Polo, will set the ball n-roI!ing at ench performance on Mon day, Tuesday and Wednesday. At the Orplicum. (By Jones.)

For the benefit of the Topeka fight fann who missed the film when it was shown hero last fall, "The Won der Man," featuring Georges Carpen tier, will be shown at the Crystal the first three days of the coming week. This Robertson-Cole production gives the public a chance to see what the French challenger for Dempsey's crown really looks like in the ring and action in one big scene that is so realistic that it raises one out of his seat. Carpentier Is no novice in front of the movie camera and carried the leading role all thru this play. He carries it well too and shows that, in addition to being a skillful and grace ful fighter, he is an adept at all the tricks of stage business. The story that makes this production is a good one- and has several thrills in it as well as an interesting plot. For the last three days of the com ing week "Drag Harlan" will be shown. This is a William Fox pro duction, featuring William Farnum. REFUSED TO SHOOT CLARA. Los Angeles Camera Man Turns Down Hamon Offer of Good Job. Los Angeles, May 21. Clara Smith Hamon has been stung again. As the woman in the Hamon case and later accused of the murder of the Okla homa politician, she gained much pub licity, but since the trial she has not had her name in the paper except in instances where she and her budding movie career was blocked. The latest instance of this kind happened here yesterday when the camera man now employed by Marion Fairfax was offered $500 per week to "shoot" Clara in her proposed film career. The camera man's name is Guissart. He emphatically refused the offer. Stars Are Out of Hospital. Ann Forest and Betty Compson, both reported for work at the Lasky studio last week.

In Any Other Way. BY K.L We have seen "Way Down East" anU have paid two plunks per seat some of us to see it. Griffith's managers offer to submit au audited report to prove that they paid out $$00,000 to make the film, evi dently in a campaign to make tbe public believe that a screen production can be worth that much. This week's issue of "The Motion Pic ture World" recounts how the creditors of one of Griffith's companies will be paid off at one hundred cents ou the dollar and the receivership dissolved, because Mr. Grif fith "wiped off" the largest of the charges against tbe company. Not long ago it was revealed In an expose of the so-called "Million Dollar Picture Graft," that in order to boost the expense figures on one of the big films, th director had listed three Oriental rugs used as pur chased at $0,000 each, when a receipted bill from the rug dealer showed that he had rented those rugs for the production for &m No charges are to be made here. These statements of tact are given for what they may be worth. There seems to be a to evident desire on the part of the movie producers to boost tbe price of tbe pic tures. The time once was when we or dinary mortals could see a fairly good movie program at ten cents. Of course those we are now seeing at three aod four times that amount per admission are far superior to the ten cent variety, but are they three or four times as good? The people of the United States are falling over themselves to pay two and more per seat to see "Way Down East." Is it because they believe they will get two dollars worth and they are actually satis fied that hey have had their money's worth after they come out of the theater? It all rests In their bands. Re sure that this is not the first feature that will be put on the market at these prices. Seeing the money Griffith is pulling down from this picture other managers and maybe Griffith will bring on others. If the pub lic insist on paying the prices asked for those that are to follow, their numbers will increase until the forty cent movie program will in a few years become us much a relic of the past as the old ten cent show. Mr. Griffith insists that he is elevating the new fccreen art. He certainly is making the public pay for the elevation. He is actually putting something into tbe films that has not been there before, but while he is doing it is he killing -the goose that is laying the golden egg for the screen producers? The public has only a certain amount of money for amusement purposes. If all is spent for one show a layoff of a week or so must be taken. Kither that or the public will be content with the cheaper oii order or tnnigs ana tne attempt to ele vate art will fail. Inventions are only worth while If the production cost is wlthtn reasonable limits. Elevation of the films may be desirable but if the elevation is to lift the movies out of reach of tlm vnnmon people whose chief amusement they have become, then let the screen stay where it is. Here is one thing for both the public and Mr. Griffith to ponaer npon. "way uown iast is uni versally rated as the second best picture of tbe rear. It moves aside. In the oninion of practically all critics, for the German film "Passion." The Griffith film shown in Topeka at a scale of prices, the lowest of which was 50 cents and from that ranged up to $2. "Passion" was shown here a few weeks ago and the top price was 50 cents. There is a discrepancy somewhere. "My press agent never revises anvthine he writes about me," says Owen Moore.

ARE THEY HEROES? Leading Lady for Many Male Stars Declares "o." Working With "Wallie Eeid Like Blind Man's Buff." Art leading men heroes to their lemming women? This question has been asked of many a screen actress, and Miss Loom .s is a pretty leading woman who really ought to know about a lot of famous movie men. Margaret Loomis, who has achieved anvenviable reputation as a leading woman on the screen, thus gives some sidelights on the male stars she has played opposite: "Playing opposite Wallace Keld la like a game of 'blind man's buff.' One never knows exactly what to ex pect of 'Wallie.' Even the director is never quite sure what he is going to do next. He is one of the .most per- Miss Margaret Loomu. feet of screen lovers because he al ways tempers his love .making With a spark of humor. He is easy to work with because he never doubts the ability of the persons with whom lie is working. '"With Thomas Meighan. one must be constantly on the alert, because Tommy' is. He takes his work easily, albeit somewhat seriously, and he is wise enough to know there must be no foolishness in his own particular brand of iovemaking. I have heard women in the audience become in articulate with admiration of 'Tommy's manner of making love.' It ,s a g.ft which he is quite unconscious. He is just a natural, genial, lovable young Irishman with a thread of the gold of romance running clear and bright thru his soul. "In 'The Sins of St. Anthony," the Only part f ever played with Bryant Washburn, he had the role of the absent-minded and studious lover, lie is an ideal person with whom to work. He is always so anxious to get the viewpoint of the 'other fellow." He :s business-like, efficient, has infinite confidence in. his director and co workers and a sure intuition of how the public will react to tua interpreta tion of his roles." WLLli NOT FILM "FAl'ST." New York, May 21. D. W. Griffith will not ut-e "Faust" as the subject of his next pro .Jction, due to impending censorship in .New York and other states. Elaborate preparations for an unusual interpretation of the great German classic have been put away until a firmer stability returns to the official attitude toward motion pic tures. Mr. Griffith had planned to go to Germany to- take many of the scenes, and had the cast largely selected, but with the certainty of Isew York hav- ing an untried censorship and a grow ing interest in severe regulations of films thruout the country, he has abandoned the risk of investing prac tically one-half million dollars in the production. "While "Faust" is read in nearly ev ery school room thruout the world, holds high place as a classic in every library, yet the public seems to be in a sensitive and emotional state that argues against such a production at this time."

Fray Juan Fadilla. believed to have been the first Christian martyr in what s now the united States probably will be erected by Bishop Francis Tief, new head of the Concordia diocese, in the approximate ispot where the pio neer monk was murdered by Indians nearly 400 years ago, in the vicinity of Junction City, Kan. Padilla is believed to have returned to Quivira (now Kansas) following the expedition conducted by the Spanish explorer, Francisco Vasques de Coro nado in 1542. in search of the "seven cities" which Franciscan missionaries had reported existed in Quivira. The route taken by Coronado thru Kansas has been fairly accurately traced by historians in eleven central Kansas counties. Residents of Lindsbore and vicinity, in McPherson county, are beautifying Coronado Heights, named' for the Spanish explorer who is said to have conducted his expedition to the crest of this mountainous like formation for observation purposes. Automobile drives have been constructed to the top and a rest house built there. This year trees have been set out and it is the intention to make the spot one of historic interest for tourists. The elevation has attracted geologists from all parts of the country because its chalk like formation has yielded the skeletons of many valuable prehistoric animals.

.rriw theX On ..of the, most impotent events in American Art circles this year Is the "bequest, of the MorTadden collec tion ot.. eighteenth and early nine teenth century English masters to the city of Philadelphia. Htia collection was the property of the late John Howard JUcFadden. prominent -Philadelphia cotton broker. It consist of about fifty paintings, both portrait!) and landscapes, includ- ing- the very best works of Gains- burouK.li, Reynolds, Raeburn, Komney," Hoppner,- XJiwrene, Harlow, J. -Watson Gordon, Morland, Hogarth, Con stable, Crome, Bonington, Cox and Turner. Among, the paintings are some exquisite studies and portraits of child life, such as "Bo Peep" by Rom ney. Mrs. Weddell and her Children by Harlow. "Master Bunbury" by tflr Joshua Rpynolda, also the fuscinatins portrait of Lady Rodney by Gainsborough. AtcFadden began maKing ttua col lection in 16!3. His first purchase was the above mentioned Gains borough portrait. "Henrietta, Lady Rodney." to consistent was he that his art collection should be made up entirely of works of ore period, na tionality, and. school, that he parted i with a Velnftiuez o( great value, on the ground that "it did not harmonize with his scheme of things." i The McFadden collection is to be I housed in the aiew Municipal Art mu- seum beina; erected in Fairmount j park, and special arrangements are j t being made to display it to me oesi j advantage, possible. The trustees who j have been left in charge of the -COj-I lection. 'Judne Robert von Moschi- i asisker, George Wharton Pepper and-f S Jasper T.- Uriton. co-operating wuu the architects of the art museum, are arranging a series of rooms, compara l ble in size with those m wiiich the i paintings are now rmnging in" the Mc j Fadden house on Rittenhouse quare. These ;ooma are to te embellished with period furniture and proper hangings, consequently those who visit i them will not have that unpleasant j nnd fatiguing sense of "doing" an art J gallery eo often experienced under f usual conditions. j Harvey M. Watts, in the May ffum j ber of Arts and Decoration, says: "Mr. itcFadden aimed at reflecting in his pictures that period of Eng land which he loved, at iis mellowest, the England of the open spucea. of the rural- cottage and of the -cotter' -simple lifo. along with the elegancies of what has been called 'polite eo ciety,' and the circle of those, noble or otherwise, who rule the country 4 and raado Kngland great." Few Topeka people, even -of those .'Who attend regularly toe services of (Ui-ace Cathedral, realize what gems ,if art are the carved statues decorau j i'ng the pulijit and the altar ot that J church. Indeed they should be gems. for they were carved by Anton Lang, fa worthy member of one of the most noted families of wood carvers of that 'wood carvers' community, the region round about Oberammergau. Bavaria, ;a place also well known on account of jthe great passion play held there every -ten years. On. the Grace Cathedral pulpit are i figures of the Savior, the Four Evan i pHists. and of three angels. These Ifiiures are all about three feet high, JKach .stands in a separate niche .covered by a Gothic canopy.. In fact, the wholo dcrtun of the pulpit is t'.othic, and the statuettes breathe the spirit of Gothic sculpture) which is ;that, no matter how much individu ality each possesses, it at the same jtime, fits into and forms part of a decorative scheme. i A person glving(the figures a close 5 Inspection will be at once struck with ?the bold yet delicate technique of the -craftsman 'artist. He modeled each with I deft cuts of chisel and knife, jrnaking no attempt to conceal or ismooth down the short snappy planes by strokes of the tool. It is such (treatment that makes the figures carry, -so to speak, makes them ap pear to equal advantage whether viewed from far or near; also it gives !a play to the beholder's imagination i which a pefleet. smooth finish would ?tiot. It is the lea'ing something to tour imaginations, that constitutes one ,pt the attributes of true art: when lite know all there Is to know, see all there is to see, we at once lose imterest. I Among all the figures on the pulpit, 'perhaps the most attractive is the ansel immediately below the reading desk. Note the quiet, saintly dignity of Its pose, the hang of the drapery which, expresses all there is to express, without elaboration, and the curving lines of the great wings with their sug gestion of feathers, made by an oc casional deft, swift stroke of a sharp -chisel. Also notice the skillful model ling of the little face and of the pray ing hands alt done with-', few strong decisive cuts-of a tool in the hands of one who knew exactly what he wanted o do. z "f equal merit with the work on the Tulpit, is the high relief carving of the "Last SuppeT." based on Di Vinci's isreat painting, that adorns the reredos of the altar. Here pictorial effect la of as much or more importance than in ere decoration. The main object of the composition is to direct the atten tion of worshippers to the great com memorative act that takes place below, r In this carving detail is made much Wore subordinate to big masses and plains ot tlight and shadow, in order that the group may be seen from a great distance, snd its meaning and significance clearly understood by everybody attending the services. c The communion rail Is adorned with a string course representing a vine with clusters of grapes. Here decora tion is the main purpose. It Is not so important that the beholder shall see at once rhat the ornament la a &rape vine, as it is that what would other wise look unpleasantly bare should be property embellished. Therefore the Sirst object to be obtained in carving gwas to make the leaves and the grape "clusters form a pleasing pattern. It Is only when a person approaches the rail that he becomes fully aware of the grapes, "the fruit of ths vine," which Our Lord associates so inti mately with His shed blood, and which the communicant is presently to re ceive, -.i There ts much more carving In and about the sanctuary of Grace cathe dral besides that to which I have called special attention, but it ia most ly of an accessory, and conventional character; in fact, perhaps, there is 'just a -little too much of it. Its pro fuseness somewhat obscuring and con fusing the important centers of in terest. But perfection- being some thing not-to bs obtained or desired rn this world. It should not be expected. The Grace cathedral pulpit Is a me morial gift of Mrs. D. P. Blisch of At chison, and the- "Last SunDer was presented to the cathedralby Dean and Mrs. Kaye. h ft S 1 1 flSllw TWlAMIlilCAN M O M SL Pick tier oat goon we, mean the Loan, at 824-The Av-noo.

Men are really little boys at heart just as eager for praise; just as easily I hurt; just as anxious to have some one kiss the hurt away; just as unre- strained in their fun; Just as keenly acquisitive as when they played marbles' for keeps, or el3e just as liable to be either reckless or care less, and let the other fellow win the game. On a recent trip I had a chance to observe two types of men. More people had crowded into the dining room at the eating station than were expected. The fried chicken gave out, every one at our table being served but these two men, strangers to each' other. When the waitress, who had gone tq the kitchen Tor more, returned with two chicken pates, expressing regret that there was no more fried chicken, one man accepted the pate and graciously said he preferred it. The other refused the pate. He was pathetic in his small bow disap pointment. I wanted to offer him my fried chicken, but thinking that the waitress would bring more, I had already done some damage to tny plate before she returned with her re port. f The man accepted a lamb chop, but ate it as if he could hardly swallow for, the lump in his throat. It was to pity him. I could see the little boy so plainly. i Perhap3 when he was a chilB, and the Methodist preacher (Dr. Kulp please pardon) had come to dinner, there had been none of the fried chicken left but the neck, by the time it was his turn to be served. THEN, he had probably cried; may even have been sent from the table for dis turbing the sanctity of the meal heur. But NOW. he was too big to cry. tho he looked as if he wanted to. I expected every minute to see him burst into tears, ilaybe I felt worse because he didn't. I'm sure he did. The other man, bless him, ate his chicken pate in serenity of spirit. He may have learned early in tne Bcnooi of life indeed, I am sure that he had that one might as well be a philoso pher. Yesterday, one has been asked to give up the long anticipated fishing trip, because the hay must be in before it rains: today, the suit so badly in need of a successor, must be worn a little longer, because one's mother, who is old and sick, must have a change of scene; tomorrow why, as Automatic Vacuum Cleaner THE GREAT number of homes that are using the Vital is proof of Vital quality.

Haskin, Director, Washing ton, V, C. President .Harding could hardly do a more popular thins than to appoint "William Howard Taft to the position of chief justice of the supreme court of the United States to succeed the late Chief Justice White. If he fall to do so, he will cause keen disap pointment thruout the country. She people know Mr. Taft and have con fidence In him. He Is universally rec ognized as being eminently fitted for the place. It Is believed to have been his life-long ambition to sit on the supreme bench. It is reported that he could have had a place on the bench years ago but that he was persuaded to reject the offer by his relatives In order that he might run for the presi dency. As an inducement to do so, it Is said, they offered to finance his1 campaign. The rest Is recorded his tory. The appointment of Mr. Taft to the highest- office In the gift of the jreidenl would fittingly round out the public career or one or the coun try's most distinguished citizens, Eoldom is the chief magistrate of the republic afforded an opportunity to perform so popular an act. The farmers are preparing to show the other business interests of the country that two can play at the trust game. The initials I. W. W. now are being interpreted to mean: "I Want Wil liam," meaning, of course, "Big Bill," who is supposed to be having a good time in Russia on money collected from his followers in this country. The excess profits tax has been paid from three to five times by ultimate consumers, because of the "insurance of profit" caution. A direct sales tax would" be a completed transaction, paid only- once. St. Louis Times. 1 The London Express has examined tho League of Nations and pronounces it dead. The next thing in order seerns to be t-o discover who killed it. Since the announcement of its demise comes almost simultaneously with the arrival of Colonel Harvey in England it may be that he gave it the final dag ger thrust. In addition to carrying on our war with Germany we now are confronted With a civil war in West Virginia. We fire a great nation of fighters. It is reported that "Villa will harvest 10.000 bushels of wheat on his ranch his year. The former bandit seems o have reversed the formula promul gated by Mary Elizabeth Lease among the Populists of the early 90a She Urged them to raise less corn and more hell. The great-grandson of U. S. Grant, former commander in chief of the American armies and twice president tf the United States, is about to marry a Boston girl. The young man is a prince of Russia and his name is Michael Cantacuzene. Hs is a senior at Harvard. Young .Mike's Russian heritage is not worth much to him but his American heritage is some thing of which he can be and prob ably is genuinely proud. The people ot the United States are reported to have consumed 200,000. 000 more oysters last year than, the year before. Those who attend church suppers probably never suspected it. According to latest estimates, the loss to the government In the operaf tion of the railroads under federal Control will total in the neighborhood of $1,200,000,000. This estimate Is not complete, as there is much litigation SMIL pending involving claims against the railroads while they were under government control. The amount the railroads will be compelled to, pay an which they will also be entitled to re cover from the government cannot be definitely known until the litigation has terminated. Many of the claims involved in this litigation will be con tested In appeals to the "supreme court so that It may be several years before the people of the country will know the full amount of the loss sustained which must be borne by them as a consequence of the taking over of the railroads by the government. The railroads have been delayed In filing their claims with the government be cause many claims against them are stHKundetermined and they can not, of course, know the extent of their demand against the government unil they know definitely the amounts they must pay for obligations or liabilities incurred under government control. Samuel Gompers again finds him self In conflict with the ruling of the courts and calls for trie impeachment of a Judge who issued an injunction in a labor case. He invites the court to cite him for contempt. The judge has replied that it GompeA will vio late the injunction he will take pleas ure in punishing him. He might suc ceed in punishing the head of the American Federation but could he do as well with Alexander Howat? The Judges out this way seem to fail In their efforts to Inflict penalties on the leader of the union miners in the Pittsburg district. THE SAN FRANCISCO FLAN. Probably no city in the country has suffered more from labor troubles than has San Francisco. The build ing trades disagreements have been especially annoying and damaging to the welfare of the city. It is now be lieved by all parties directly con cerned that a way for preserving in dustrial peace in the building industry has been found. 'Late in 1920 the Ban Francisco Chamber of Commerce appointed a committee on industrial relations with powers to examine into the whole building trade situation, with the view of bringing about a more wholesome condition in the relations between em ployer and employe. For many years the labor situation in the building trades had been unsatisfactory, due to frequent strikes and misunderstand ings with consequent losses to botb sides and to the good name of the city. After a searching investigation the committee ascertained the basic causes which had kept the builders and workmen apart and by bringing them together finally obtained, their consent to the adoption of an arbitra tion agreement for the settlement of all future differences in questions of wages, hours and working conditions. Under the agreement the board Is given the widest latitude in the mat ter of initiating investigations into the conditions affecting the building trades and is empowered to call for copies of contracts or agreements touching any phase of the building sit uation. The findings and decisions of the board in each case will be accept ed as final by the parties to the agree ment. The board is nonpartisan in character, each of the three members being held to represent impartially the interests of all the parties involved Including the employer, the employe and the public. The hearings held by the board will be public, unless the board decide otherwise, and the expenses of opera tion are to be borne erually by both sides. It is agreed that this board shall sit as a continuing board of arbitration, to which shall be submitted all dis putes as to hours, wages and working conditions in building trades where there are no disputes now, as well as in those where there are, when aijrl as such disputes arise between the sig natory parties, and that the decisions of the board shall be accepted as final and carried' out by air parties. This step is taken, it is stated, in order to provide a permanent mathod of set tling amicably, and in a reasonable manner, labor disputes affecting" the building trades, and with the hope that building operations -henceforth may be put on a certain and stable basis a result which will be of ad vantage to the workers, to the employ ers and to the public. A part of the agreement reads: It is understood that the trades in which there are now disputes con cerning hours, wages and working conditions, which disputes will be im mediately submitted to the board, are as follows: Painters, glassworkers, varnishers "and polishers, cement fin ishers, cement laborers, hod carriers, tending plasterers, marble rubbers and sawyers, marble finishers and polish ers, marble masons, marble masons helpers, hoisting and portable en gineers, roofers, elevator constructors, elevator constructors' helpers, rein forced iron workers, team and auto truck drivers, plasterers. The San Francisco experiment is worth watching. If it succeed, it should appeal to workers as well as employers in every city in the country. Something of the sort long has been needed. However, it would tend to throw a large army of walking dele gates out of jobs. x What Is a living wage? The right of every worker to possess it is not disputed by any cult, class or sane in dividual. The real disagreement aris ing from the subject is only""over the best way to arrive at some ultimate or definite standard of ascertaining what a living wage rightly is. But the more study given the subject, the more ram ifications it appears to have. Up to this time it seems never to have been attained. This is Indicated by the fact that wage earners are persistently en gaged In an effort to obtain higher pay. The presumption is that if they were getting what they regard as a living wage they would be content. A shortage of beer In England is re ported. Americans will know how to sympathize with the British. They are In the same boat. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC JT. HASKIN, Director, "Washington, 0. C. CONGRESSIONAL CALISTHENICS. Washington, r. C, May 19. With the opening in the house office build ing of a gymnasium supported by per sonal contributions from 140 congress men, the physical culture movement seems to have struck Capitol Hill full force. f perhaps the sudden interest of the congressmen in their physical condi tion is not hard to explain. They have recently been holding hearings in the committee on education on a bill to establish agnation wide system of physical culture, and the figures showing the need for such a measure have been truly alarming. They show that a large percentage of American men are physically unfit, and that among sedentary workers, lack of ex ercise and of fresh air are the big causes. We have conquered germs, only to let our livers and hearts and other vital organs degenerate for lack of an occasional shaking up. The congressman and senator are the sedentary men par excellence. Sit ting is their business. A congressman's reputation depends partly on how much time he spends sitting in the house, and when he leaves there he goes to his office and sits down and spends four hours dictating letters, explaining that the garden seeds are all gone and why he could not recom mend 15 men for one postmastership. Formerly oratory gave the legisla tor all the exercise he needed. Men like Daniel Webster and Henry Clay used to get up a good sweat every time they addressed the house. Then they would take a plunge in the Po tomac and a rub down, and so keep in the best of trim. But the style in oratory has changed. There is not as much swing ing and hammering and waving as there used to be. Oratory can no longer take the place of the setting up exercise. And members of the house, especially,- do not get the chance to talk often enough to keep them In really good trim. The con gressman says a few words and then extends his remarks in .the Record. The orations that the home folks read are delivered only to stenographers or even written with a lead pencil. Hence the need for the congres sional gymnasium which has recently been opened on the first floor of the house office building in a space for merly occupied by the Democratic na tional committee. A Fighting Congressman. The idea is credited to Representa tives Britten of Illinois and Reed of New York. After the balance of the 140 congressional athletes had signi fied their willingness to take part in the plan, each was assessed $10. With this money Representative Britten managed to obtain complete equip ment lor the gymnasium. For the legislator who seeks diver sion nr -rercite. there is nrovided A "handball court, three rowing ma chines, two punching bags, a wrestling mat, horizontal bars, abdominal mas sage machines, a gymnasium "horse," and any number of medicine balls, boxing gloves, chest weight pulleys, Indiaa clubs, dumb bells, fencing foils, masks, and breast plates. In addition, there are lockers, shower baths, a steam room, rubbing tables, and an electric cabinet bath. The "gym" idea was conceived dur ing the last session of congress, and the money for the equipment collected. Kvery day there is spasmodic use or the gymnasium, but it is planned now to have regular classes to whip con gressmen into good trim. The two originators of the plan with Represen tative Newton, f Minnesota, have been named as a committee to get in touch with the athletic authorities ot the navy, marine corps, and Georgetown university, with a view to securing the services of the best athletic coaching available It is planned to hold this class in the morning, due to the em barrassment which might result from roll call interrupting an afternoon class, dragging nearly naked states men from their violent physical exer tions, forcing them to dress hurriedly, dash over to the capitoi, and answer to their names. v It is not expected that the full 140 subscribers to the fund for the equip ment ot the gymnasium will take ad vantage of the opportunity a coached class in physicial culture will offer them. Some of the older mem bers will not attend, and many of the house leaders contributed with no idea of being able .to devote a definite fraction of their time to being put into good bodily trim. Captain John Craige, of the marine corps, will have general supervision of the physical work of the statesmen when the class is formed. He is an overseas veteran, and now, in addi tion to being one of the aides to Ma jor General Lejeune, commandant of the marine corps, is athletic officer of the corps. He intends to detail properly qualified enlisted men of the organization if they are found to be available. A Famous Coach. Captain Craige entered the marine corps during the late war. His prow ess as an amateur boxer is well known. In addition to attaining laurels in this field, he assisted in training of three middleweight champions of the world. Boxing bids fair to take a prominent part in the activities of the -house gymnasium devotees. One of the orig inators of the gymnasium plan, Repre sentative Britten, has an enviable rec ord as an amateur boxer, broad jumper, and sprinter. He still keeps himself In first class -shape all the time, doing a considerable amount of handball playing and boxing. Mr. Britten and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, new assistant secretary of the navy, have agreed to a friendly bout with the gloves at the house gym. Colonel Roosevelt, by the way, is the only man outside the" member ship of the house who has been ad mitted to membership in the gymnay- sium. Only the fixing' of a time con-i- venient to Secretary Roosevelt re mains in the way of these men com ing together. Secretary Roosevelt has led the "strenuous life" advocated by his dis tinguished father, and has engaged in a great many" glove encounters with the late ex-president. However, in tackling Representative Britten, he will have his hands uncomfortably full, altho he, will have the advantage of weight, height and reach. The congressman made a great name for himself on the Pacific coast as R youngster. He is stilj remem bered there as one of the fastest and strongest lightweight amateur boxers that California has produced. He came into national notice when fight ing a gentleman who rejoiced in the name of Young Brady at the Olympic club of San .Francisco In 1892. In tne first round he knocked Brady down six times, then knocked him out, all in the space of one minute and thirty seconds. At the Chicago Athletic club, during the world's fair games in 189$, young Britten knocked out Jack Mackler in twelve rounds. During the Chicago games, Mr. Britten did not devote himself entirely to boxing, but by way of variety defeated Crumm, the then famous Iowa sprinter, who subsequent ly was timed for 100 yards in less than ten seconds. Mr. Britten also treasures medals won for swimming and broad jumping. Mr. Britten received his instruction in boxing from James J. Corbett, for mer heavyweight champion of the world. If, in the coming encounter between Mr. Britten and the doughty Secretary Roosevelt, one inadvertently hits the other a little harder than he meant to, it Is more than likely .that the fur wilirfly. THE REVOLT OF VERA SANDERSON BY JANE PHELP$ SIRS. HUNTER GOSSIPS OF KEITH CHAPTER 24. "What have you been doing with yourself all day?" Keith asKd when he came in.v "Playing nurse girl." "What do you mean?" the frown appearing. "I took the children into the park this morning for two hours, then when we came home the cook informed me that Margaret had gone motoring, and as Annie was not feeling well, I was to take them to the riding acad emy." "Well?" the tone showed displeas ure. "Oh, nothing. Only I would have preferred to remain at home." "Had" you any engagements?" "No." "Then I can't see your viewpoint at all. I am sorry you are so disobliging when Margaret asks you to do some certain little things, when she does so much for us." "I am not disobliging, Keith. I take a great deal of care of the girls, espe cially Gloria. But I don't like Mar garet to take too much for granted. If she had asked Tne to take them, it would have been different. But she almost ordered me." "And I order you to speak more respectfully of my sister." I said no more. What was the use? 1 That expression was now often in my mind. What was the use? I had been idignant for days over the cur tailing of Sallle's visit, for which I blamed Margaret. I hated the way she planned my time, my clothes, my amusements. But whenever I said anything to Keith he Invariably took her fart, and almost as invariably be came angry, with me. So what was the use? I tried, really tried, but I could not dismiss from my mind what Mr. Hun ter had said, what his tone had Im plied, about Keith and Mrs. Be Lisle. Then one day Mrs. Hunter called upon us. Margaret was out and I received her alone. I found she was fully as great gossip as her husband, and when she commenced to chat of the people at the dinner I was delighted. Perhops I should find out something. "Has. Mrs. De Lisle called?" she asked. "No." "Of course, she "has only just re turned from Europe, and hasn't had much time. What do you think of her?" "I think she Is very lovely if that is what you mean." "She IS lovely, but I didn't mean her looks. I meant what you thought of her?" "I do not know her well enough to have formed an opinion. Tell me what sort of woman is she. ,1 saw her in the park the other day, but only for a moment." "Oh, she Is such a very old friend of Tour husband's you are bound to see a lot of her. I imagine she and Margaret will see more of each other now that Keith Is married. I always thought Margaret was Jealous of her afraid Keith would marry." Then: "I am surprised she hasn't called-" "I think she is very fascinating!" I returned. Altho I longed to learn more about her, I would not let Mrs. Hunter' think me too interested, or Jealous. I was proud even if I was young and meek. "She IS fascinating, too much so to men. I keep my eye on my husband when she Is around. Not that 1 don't trust Clark, but she has a way of monopolizing a man, and making him look foolish." I made no reply and she added: "You watch out or she will try to make people think Keith still cares for her. You see, everyone thought it was going: to be a match. He used to be very attentive but you are younger. And, if I do say It as I shouldn't right to your face, you are also prettier than, she, if you only knew how to make the most of your self." She talked a little longer, aimlessly most of the time. I was glad when she left. I had heard all I wanted to know and more. I would tell Keith she had been with-me and ask him some questions about the lovely widow. Mrs. Hunter had sal Mrs. De Lisle might try to make people think Keith still cared for her. That presupposed he had cared. How dreadful to be second 1n a man's affections! What could I do about it? I would return Mrs. Hunter's call very soon. Had I known Just how to express myself I should have said I intended to cultivate Mrs. Hunter for the sole means of finding out what my husband's life had been before I knew him. (To be continued.)

So Emily Curtis thought as she viewed the toppling pile stacked beside the sink. Tackling them half-heartedly, she let her gaze wander thru the open windows across the meadows, sweet with ripened grain. Mellow October sunshine filtered thru the apple laden trees of the orchard, and the vagrant wind brought to her ears the dull chop-chop of the silo. But Emily had neither eyes nor ears for the sights and sounds of the farm. She had had enough of farms. Pausing in the act of lifting the dishes from their bath of suds into the drainer, she dried her hands on the roller towel, and from her blouse took a crumpled letter which had been brought by the rural mail carrier that very morning. She had not showed it to John. John had never approved of Maisie. Only one paragraph In It was really important to Emily, 'ine rest was froth in-Maisie's best style. "You ought to be "here, with, your voice like a bird" the note read "Old Gunter needs more girls. It's easy work, and you could bunk with me. I've been trying to get somebody. Tt ciits room rent In half." What good did a voice like a bird do one on a farm? thought Emily bitterly. You ruined it shouting your heaj off to the men that dinner was ready, or calling to John that the wood box needed filling. Singing Sunday eve nings in the church choir where there were six altos for every soprano was only torment. If only she had the courage of a kitten! Vague thoughts of rebellion were stirring within her, but the dull round of household tasks claimed her. crowd-ine- in on her discontent The next morning, Emily stood, pin ning her summer hat on her trim lit tle, head. It was the day for the weekly drive to Jamestown to do her marketing and meager shopping. She alwavs looked forward to it. But when John entered, to her sur prise he was in his old farm clothes. "Emllv." he began, hesitatingly, "I'm sorry, but I can't get off this morning. That last hand I hired went out on a spree last night and hasn't shown ud. "There's no need for you to give "up going, tho! Jim can drive you as well as I." Jim was the boy they had taken from the County Orphan Asy lum to do the thousand and one things about the place that did not require a man's strength. "And here," he plunged his hand into his pocket and brought.out a wrinkled bill. "Per haps this will help xnake up for-your disappointment," he said awkwardly. ''It's a little extra I had come in," During the long drive Emily nursed her anger at John for spoiling her fun, as she put to Herself. A few minutes later Emily sent the bewildered Jim home, bearing a note to her husband which she had scrawled hastily on the back of her grocery list. Dear John: I'm sorry, but I'm sick of farm life. I'm taking a chance I had to go to the city. Don't think too badly of me. EMILY. She herself walked to the small suburban station and waited for the express. Six months later in a nine by twelve dingy-pajered bedroom, Emily sat at a bare, uneven legged table, and dumped out the contents of her pock etbook. No. there was not very much there. Certainly not enough to carry her long if old Gunter put into execu tion his threat to let her go at the end of the week. There was nothing the matter with her voice, he had de clared frankly, and she got by with tne aancing, out sne hadn t the "go, the "pep" he wanted in his bunch of girls. As Emily pondered the future, de spondent wrinkles furrowine her fore head, the door swung open and Maisic I Durst in, very breezy and alive. A m sorry, Emily,", she said, "but l m going to give up my share of the room. I've got a chance to go in with a lot or girls uptown, and- ."That's all right," said Emily weari ly. She had suspected for some time that Maisle's desire for her Dreteenca in the city had been actuated solely by jxiaisie s neea lor some one to help out with the rent. One thing more or less to bother did not make much differ ence For Emily had something else to worry over besides losing her room mate or her Job. She was losing her commence in her ability to look out for herself. For a week now she had been fol lowed when Ehe" left the restaurant at midnight, followed by a slouching. stoop-snouraerea Individual, in shapeless hat and worn overcoat pulled up about his ears. Emily had expected to run Into all sorts of disagreeable experiences in the big city. To her unsophisticated mind the city was full of evil. Yet, in her several months of cabaret life, this was the first bit that had touched her personally, and so far this had been merely annoying and a bit teif jfylng. The evening of the day that Emily had learned of Malsie's defection, Gun ter fired her. Detaining her after the other girls had left he asked her where she came from and told her she had better go back home. Go back to the farm? Impossible! For one thing, rigidly brought up, strictly conventional John would never take her back. Shivering with the cold which pene trated her thin jacket, she noticed with relief that the sinister shadow which had dogged her footsteps had evident ly given up the Idea that she was com ing tonight. Yet she cast anxious glances over her shoulder .until she reached the shelter of the narrow doorway which opened at the foot of the bare flight of stairs. Climbing them wearily, she opened the door of her room. Striking a match, she touched the tiny gas jet, which gave off a wan flicker of light. Yet, by its feeble flame, Emily saw that which made her clutch her throat in terror, and utter an Involuntary scream. There at the table, his head burled fin his arms, h s hat slipping from his head, sat the man who had oeen fol lowing her. Almost paralyzed, she yet managed to back noiselessly toward the door. But, roused by her cry, the man at the table lifted his head and In his tired eyes, his unshaven face. Emily saw her husband. "John." faltered Emily, the color which had left, her face flooding H. again. "It's me. Emily,' said her husband slowly. "You needn't be afraid. I've been seeing you home nights for some time. At first I was very angry with you swore you should never dsrken my home again. But as time went on. I I missed you, and I got to think ing of you and I well, I came up to see if I could find you. I kind of thought you had gone to that Maisie. After I aid find you, I wanted to make sure what kind of life you were liv ing, and so I took to following you, fixed up so you -wouldn't know me. Tonight I thought you wern't coming. The farm is going to rack and ruin. I don't suppose you want to give this up 7" "Give it up?" Emily, who had been standing one hand on the doorknob. looked about her at the bed with Its enamel peeled off in splotches, at the dirty wall paper, at the doorless cup- Doara with Its meager display of cracked dishes. "It's getting spring on- the farm," went on John eagerly. 'The meadow where the brook runs thru is covered with bluets I saw two robins by the lilac bush" "I don't deserve It," whispered Kmely. and buried her face on John's shoulder.

Everyone, who has lived in a large city, knows that one of the biggest needs in it is a clearing house for youth and romance. Some place where nice, respectable boys and girls may meet each other and have a good, innocent time together, and per haps fall in love with each other and get married, and know all the time that everything is all right be cause they have been O. K.'d by the roof under which they have been in troduced. At present there Is no such place." Young people who go as strangers to a city almost perish of loneliness during the first few months in which they are aliens In an alien land. Then they begin picking up acquain tances on the street, at the places where they work, at boarding houses, and cheap restaurants, and the re sult is tragedy In innumerable cases. Yet youth calls to" youth, and man to rnaid Every young chap must have his girl, and every girl must have her man, and they must play together, and have natural, normal fun.-' I get hundreds of letters a year from young men, asking me how they may meet nice girls In the cities In which they live, girls like the sort they knew back home, and even more letters from girls wanting to know how they may get to know worthy young men of the type who used to take them around to- parties, and to picture shows at Squeedunk or Bird Centre. And I have had to answer that I donknow, and to beware of the vamp with the rolling eye, and the smiling youth who says, "Excuse me, miss, but didn't I see you last week at the ball at the Vantoria? I see my mistake now, but you are so exactly like that girl who was the most beautiful creature I ever saw, that my error was perfectly natural," etc., etc A pophet, however, has arisen in Israel, wio has a plan for solving this great problem. He lives in New Or leans, and has a bill now before the Louisiana legislature, in which com munities of two thousand and over are authorized to establish social centers at which young people may meet and mate under the chaperonage of the law. According to his plan, men and women who wish companionship, will go to the nearest matrimonial station and register. Their records will be thoroly Investigated, and if they are clean, the matron in charge will In troduce them to a circle of other certi fied Individuals. Of course, it is then up to the man and woman to find congenial ac quaintances, or, perhaps, the one par ticular Him or Her, That is as may be. Cupid is a choosy youngster, and makes strange selections, but the point is that here he is given a working basis, and whoever he picks out is more or less a guaranteed article. The author of this romantic bill Is so far enamored of wedding bells, that he would have the state subsidize matrimony. That is going It a bit we think, as the English say, but there is no doubt but that it would be a thing if there could be some proper place established in every city where young people who have no homes and no facilities for getting acquainted, could meet under the eye of a worldly wise and lenient Mrs. Grundy. fa (Copyright, 1920, by ibe wneeler Syndicate, Inc. 1 Questions Answers Q.

L. has paid the column a great compliment, one of which It Is un worthy. We leave It to its readers. Shall we borrow the $100 and send it to him or shall we write him an am biguous and evasive letter? There is. we go on to say. ah ele ment of novelty and frankness about F. C.

Sir Isn't it time some competent person compiled in one volume the witticisms of that wonderful woman Lady Astor? We only get occasional gleams by cable, as In the Public Ledger of May "Lady Astor declared amid loud laughter that men are apt to make Very alluring promises at the time of marriage." Another suggestion I make without charge is that some lecture-Dlatform agency offer Lady Astor a substantial sum to tour the country with "How I Convulsed John Bull" as a subject. Convulsions of the kind Lady Astor promotes must have left. John Bull very tired and, doubtless, he would be very glad to get rid of her. S. T. D. We are one with S. T. D.

We lived for nearly twenty years on the Chautauqua circuit. We decline to encourage anybody's lec ture tour. Mr. Edison finds men who have gone thru college amazingly ignorant. His experience does not square wlt,h tne osservations we nave taken from time to time. We have known boys who, previous to matriculation, had never worn a nightshirt to become addicted to pajamas in their, first semester. v College training doesn't do much for the plain "dub." And neither, we shall aaa, does tne great school of life. Our Instinct for speculation leads us still lurtner into the realm of con lecture. We don't believe Mr. Still- man is having a very good time. either. We attempt to restrict or restrain no newspaper in its hour of grief, but it seems to us the New York World is taking the spectacle of Colonel Harvey safely ensconced in Woodrow Wilson's seat much too hard. And while we do not wish in any way to interfere with the World's matchless exhibition of agony, we do take the liberty of suggesting that "them pears is et." The New York papers quote young "Bud" Stillman as saying to his father. "But you know. dad. you have lived with other women." We may be a bit old-fashioned, but it seems to us the younger Stillman knows too much for a 17-year-old boy. The story of an attempt to swindle an- intended victim out of the ridicu lous sum of $45,000 gets Into the pa pers. This, as far as we have ob served, is the first time the newspapers have mentioned so small a sum since 1914. Money, apparently, has receded to the point at which anybody may speak of it.

Is exceedingly interested in the develop ment of the public health and has the vision of ths possibility In the work. The State Journal will publish instruc tive articles by Doctor Brown each week on how citizens may help in pub lic health work. BT EARLE gTbROWN. SL D Topeka'a publio health problem orig inated many centures ago and not with the founding of the city. If the proper quarantine measures could have been Instituted In early times, the control of the communicable di seases would have been a much easier prbolem. The history of communicable dis eases dates back to many centuries a?o. In r manuscript that has been discovered, supposed to have been written about 4.260 B. C, reference Is made to leprosy. There was at this time and subsequent times, some ef fort at segregation of those persons af flicted with leprosy. Smallpox pre vailed in China many centuries ago and in India 1.000 years before Christ. Malaria and diphtheria were known approximately 400 years B. C. Dates from Second Century. The first clear account of plague dates from the second century. In the 14th century, "the black death" as this disease was known, swept over Europe causing 25,000,000 deaths, one quarter of the world's population. It re-appeared in the 16th and lft3i cen turies, then disappeared unu 1878. The cause of this disease is a germt the so-called "comma" bacillus. Typhus fever is another of the very ier;oua diseases. During the middle ages, associated with the wars and famines, was a very great scourge. A few cases were discovered in Topeka In 1916. The great war taught the people very valuable lessons In the matter of pub lic health and because of the develop ments therefrom, there has been a greater interest than ever before. There are both official and voluntary organizations engaged in the public health work, awl they are all doing piendid work- The public health movement has now entered the con itructive period. Draft .Broaeht Out .Defects. The great percentage of physical iefects among the manhood of this )untry was brought out by the ex aminations of the drafted men. It was indeed a great surprise to dis cover that nearly four out of every :en had some defect. Organic heart disease was frequent In recruits from :he great plains region and the moun :air.ous country cf the northwest. It ivas found least often in the men from :he central and middle states. A Ereat many of these defects found :ouiJ have been corrected if they had Doen looked after when the children were young. A large number of the deaths In Topeka every year are from the so railed preventable diseases. This year !or the first four months there have been twenty-three deaths from measles, scarlet fever, typhoid fever ind tuberculosis. While there has neen a large number of cases of imailpox reported, there has not. as fez. been any fatalities. Important advances are being made rearly in the control of communicable ?isases. but with better co-operation-, a still better showing would be made. If It were possible to vaccinate :!1 persons against smallpox, this 'hsome disease would disappear.

The equipment of the Shawnee mills at this time consisted of two sets of millstones of two stones each. The lower stonea were stationary, while the upper" atones turned. The wheat was put In at the top and ran out at the side ground into flour. From so small a beginning was built up one of the largest milling plants in Topeka. At the time these millstones, were in operation, the late Thomas Page, founder of the Page mills, then a young man. was working at the Shaw nee mills. The stonea In front of the office of the Page mills were given to David Page, the son, by Mr. Baldwin of the Shawnee mills and are prized by Mr. Page as a'memento of the days when his father was employed tn this mill and probably often manipulated the grinding stones.

Takes Action on Case of Oklahoma Manufacturers. The request of brick manufacturers in Oklahoma, for a special freight rate on brick shipped into Kansas, pre sented at a hearing before the inter state commerce commission at Tulsa, has been jefused by the railroads and taken under advisement by the com mission. The Oklahoma brick makers con tend that they cannot meet the com petition of Kansas yards on the Kan sas market because of an old order which favors the Kansas manufac tures on freight rates. The -Oklahoma men say that when the order was made Kansas was pro ducing sixteen times as much brick as Oklahoma, and the special rate was made to permit the material to be shipped into the southern state for its improvement. With the ehifting source of supply of fuel gas, Oklahoma is now pro ducing 20 per cent more brick than Kansas and the situation has been reversed. 8ETEX SEJtTEJtCB SEKMOXS.

PI Pons-Winnecke Comet Is N earing Perihelion Its Nearest Approach to the Earth Will Occur June 6 or 7, and at That Time It Will Be Twelve to Thirteen Mil lion Miles Away, Observer Says. BY OBSERVER, It was 113 years ago last February that the astronomer. Pons, caught the first glimpse of the comet which to day bears his name, coupled with that of the astronomer, Winnecke, but It was not until June, 1819. that the orbit of the celestial visitant was com puted by Encke. At that time it was fcuna to have a period of approxi mately five and one-half years and it has adhered fairly cTosely to its schedule during the six score years the world has known it. Pons-Winnecke, Or Winnecke, as it is now generally known, is again ap proaching perihelion (that point In its orbit lying nearest the sun) which It will reach June 13. Its nearest ap proach to the earth will be a week earlier. June 6 or 7. when It will be some twelve or thirteen million miles away. After passing perihelion the comet will gradually grow fainter until August, when it will disappear com pletely until another five and one-half vears finds it again in our neighbor hood. The expected collision In the latter part of June with this comet is therefore off. N Not Naked Eye Comet. At no time will Pons-Winnecke be a naked eye comet but must be looked for in a telescope and even there it is not an insniring spectacle. It la as the usual order of short period comets, tailless.

Slowly oh, so slowly it drifts and Just when our patience is about exhausted it begins to show a sign of life. The drift is slightly more rapid; It is taking a course In- the general direction of a tiny star. Faster and faster it moves and now .the gloom begins to lessen. We're going back- th sari road we Came, and the point of light we're headed tor is our own sun. Our com panion begins to expand under the in fluence of the sun even at this tre mendous distance and a slightly phos phorescent glow is distinguishable. Our speed by now has. picked up and we're stepping right along. Faster and faster we go. The comet now be gins to grow a tail. Not as a result of its speed, however, but solely be cause of the repellent action of the sun's light on the minute particles in the comet. An examination of the tail shows it trails almost straight behind it. We know then that the comet's head is largely hydrogen. If it develops a second tail, still more curved, hydrocarbons are present, and a third, short, greatly curved tail will indicate the presence of iron and so dium vapors. Heat Is Terrific. By now the speed and heat is ter rific We're still forty or fifty million miles from the star but we'll have to stop for it's uncomfortably hot.

The orbit of this comet was a para bola. It visited our sun once and then swept off into space never to return, or at least, not likely to, again. Now, if in its passage thru our solar sys tem it had passed closely enough to one of the large planets as Jupiter or Saturn, its course might have been changed from a parabola to an eclipse and it would have become a periodic comet which would have returned fairly regularly on a trip around the sun. Suc h Is Pons-Winnecke. Such is Pons-Winnecke. It belongs to that class known as Jovian comets the family of Jupiter, whoso aphelia lie close to the orbit of that mighty despot. From the foregoing it will be seen that the solid matter in the nucleus or a comet may vary greatly In quan tity and the component parts. In size. From the tail, we have nothing to fear. Its extreme tenuity prevents its penetrating our atmospheric envelope and Its deleterious gases would be dis sipated in the upper regions of that protective covering. Haiiey's comet of 1919 showed deadly cyanogen gas in the spectroscope, but probably not more than a dozen people knew when we passed thru the tail in May of that year. Contact with the head would also find us sitting pretty un derneath our envelope of air. for the smaller solids would be burned up long before they reached the surface and it would have to be an extremely large piece that would still be In Its original form when it reached the ground. Hitting a comet In the head would give us little more than a won derfully beautiful meteoric shower. National Intersctiolastlc Meet On. Philadelphia, May 21. The national interscholastic championship track and field meeting was scheduled at Franklin field today with, twenty high and preparatory schools competing. This Is the twentieth anniversary of the school boy meeting which hitherto has been called the middle states in; terscholastics. The great tragedy in the career of the squeezer had its jorigin in the Jealousies and rivalry originating in the practice of awarding it as a deco- ration for distinction. The class of 95 had decided to pass the squeezer on to the class of 97. Everything was arranged for the traditional pro cedure. But the class of '9$ had other plana Tlie Insufferable Sophs! The juniors felt slighted, as other classes had from time immemorial. A conspiracy was hatched. Toward the end of the ceremony a member of that class who for some unknown reason was a party to the ritual, calmly took the squeezer off the desk, walked thru a door into Northam Towers and locked the door behind him. All this happened before the act of Impiety was fully realized. Afterwards it was too late. The squeezer had passed from the first man thru a long line of hands and finally out of a rear window into, tne hands of a waiting horseman. There was a great uproar. The act had its defenders and its particularly virulent critics. There are members of the class of '95 today who have purple flushes and a rush of strong language when the Incident is re called. But the squeezer had gone. A few years ago a squeezer ceremony was announced for class day and a squeezer was reported on hand. But the ceremony didn't? take place and the squeezer was pronounced spurious. Each year there is talk of recovering the symbol, and many old grads would like to see it restored as an interesting college custom. -No reward is offered for the re covery of the Lemon Squeezer, but the person who returns It to th col lege will have the satisfaction of creating quite a stir on the bill and among Trinity alumni.

14 HE TOPEKA DAILY STAT JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 21, 1921 USE LESS SCALES Railroads Will Not Replace Small Town Instruments. Shippers Must Take Arrival Weights, IT. S, Court Rules. The stock scales which have been a part of the stockyard equipment of railroads at small stations in Kansas, will disappear as they wear out, and will not be replaced in the future. The supreme court of the United States has held, after a legal battle which started in Shawnee county five or six years ago and has been carried thru the supreme courts of Kansas and ether states, that the carriers are not required to maintain the scale for the benefit of shippers. A bulletin stating the position of the railroads has been issued by the Santa Fe. following a complaint made to E. H. Hogueland, commerce counsel for the Topeka Traffic assciation, by John A. Edwards, of Eureka, presi dent of the Kansas livestock associa tion. The bulletin is as follows: "Section ST.ft of the General Statutes or Kansas for JMB, made It the duty of every rallwav company to construct and main tain scales for the weighing of livestock nt all stations where 0" or more cars of nvestock are received for shipment an nrtnUv. These scales were required to be constructed and insiintaiucd solely for the use and benefit of shippers of livestock who desire to he informed as to the weight of the stock delivered to the railway for shipment. Freight rates are not based on such weights and shippers persistently have refused to permit the carriers to base freight charges on the weight of livestock st point of shipment. Tly paying on des tination weights the shipper saves on shrinkage. Ordered rued by P. I. C. "The public utilities commission some five or six years ago onlered the Santa Fe to install and maintain such scales at I,nng near Emporia. The railway com pany brought suit in the district court of Shawnee county to enjoin the order of the board, and after a trial District Judge WhitooHib held the law to be unconstitu tional for the reason that such scales were of no benefit whatever to the company. Ite fore this the supreme court of New Mexico bad decided the same way under a statute Tcrv much the same. X-ater under a, similar statute, the supreme court of Minnesota sustained the net and required the Great Northern Itailway company to install such scales. This decision was reversed by the supreme court of the t'nited States in the case of the Great Northern Itailway com pnnv vs. Minnesota. V. S., 'MO. "The public utilities commission, after these decisions, entered an order that no further applications for the construction and maintaining of such scales would be entertained. In all cases where scales were Installed, it appeared that livestock dealers used these stales for the purpose nf ascer taining the weight, of livestock which were offered to them for sale." It is pointed out by the railroad of ficials that the man who ships cattle from a small station to Kansas City refuses to pay freight on the basis of the weight of the cattle on the rail road scales at the shipping point. He pays freight on the basis of the weight shown at Kansas City and gets the benefit of the shrinkage of the cattle en route. Pay on Arrival Weights. The boot Is on the other foot when the feeder at the small town buys cat tle for feeding, and has them shipped in from other ranges. Then he wants the scales at the point of delivery, fior the same reason to get the benefit of the shrinkage In shipment.

Not long ago we learned in physi ology that we had five senses, namely: sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch. But scientists now recognize seven senses, the additional two being muscle-sense and static-sense; altho we are not conscious of either. By aid of the muscle-sense we per form the more complicated acts of our existence automatically and un consciously. "Walking, talking, writ ing, piano-playing are examples of complicated aggregates of many ele mental muscular act units co-ordi nated by the sixth or muscle-sense. The seventh or static-sense enables us to recognize and maintain our equilibrium or our relative position in our surroundings. It is located in the three semi-circular canals of the ear. The demands of the aviation serv ice during the war are responsible for our knowledge of this thereto un known sense. During the early flying trials machines were lost control of in which no mechanic i fault could be lo cated. Blame was finally fixed on the human machine. It was found that some aviators, when out of sight and touch of the earth, lost their sense of equilibrium; they could not recog nize whether they were flying head up or feet up or sideways. These were finally found to have impaired sev enth or static-sense caused by trou ble in these semi-circular canals. Tests were devised which weeded out faulty flyers and these accidents were al most eliminated. Perfect equilibration or balancing is accomplished thru an harmonious co-operation of the eye, the muscle sense and the static-sense. This "sense triology" makes possible esti mations of all sorts; rate of motion, of weight, realization of posture and po sition and locomotion. The static sense haa for its sole function the maintenance of balance. Nature Is kind and resourceful and impairment of one of these senses is compensated for, to a certain extent, by others. The man afflicted with locomotor ataxia has partly lost his muscle sense but the eye and the static-sense enable him to co-ordinate his move ments. In the dark, tho, he is help less because he has not the use of his sight to help him balance. Similarly a blind man can walk until deprived of his muscle- or static-sense. Deaf mutes sometimes have their static sense destroyed along with hearing but maintain their balance by sight and muscle-sense and are helpless in the dark or in the water. A well developed static-sense is necessary to birds and fishes. When their semi-circular canals are de stroyed they are unable to maintain their balance in the air or water and cannot fly or swim. Vertigo or dizziness Is always caused by disturbance of this static sense. Seasickness or ordinary dizzi ness caused by turning or swinging is the result of commotion of the fluid within the semi-circular canals.
