Sheriff Harris of Elko, Nov., telephoned to the police here today that the man at Carlin, Xev, thought to be Edward F. Sands wanted in connection with the killing of William Desmond Taylor, motion picture director here, was not Sands and has given a satisfactory account of his movements which dissolved ali suspicion. The home of Mary Miles Minter was under a heavy guard of private de tectives today, and none save those with official permission were per mitted to enter th ground or resi dence. No explanation of their pres ence was made by tho detectives who maintained silence when questioned as to the purpose or by wnom tnej were detailed to guard the place. Mary Miles Minter. First intimation that E. F. Sands had been located in Nevada was re-I veil late last night by long dis tance. A telegraph warrant imme diately was wired to the .Carlin con stable with a complete description of Hand. This was followed by another message to Sheriff Harris, of Elko county, Nevr.da, stating that the Los Angeles police "hold felony warrant for murder for E. F. Sands." Reports here were J that a man who answered ti Sands' description had appeared in Carlin a few days after the film director had been murdered in his Alvarado street home. This man's actions are said to have aroused the suspicions of the Carlin author ities. A confederate appeared too with the suspect, who remained in seclusion as much as possible. Offi cers today were awaiting word that Sands had been taken into custody. New Yorker Has Alibi. It was learned early today that the prominent young New Yorker, who has been mentioned frequently in con nection with an alleged love affair, in volving the murdered man and a film actress of the first magnitude, had been located in a Los Angeles hotel. Officers rushed to interrogate the man who has been much sought by the police within the last two day3. Following their questioning, how ever, it was announced the New York er, scion of a wealthy eastern family, had presented an alibi regarding his actions on the night the murder was committed. No further police action along this angle of investigation was taken other than to verify the man's alibi. officers stated that the theory that this man may have had any connec tions with the tragedy had been en tirely eliminated and set to work on hitherto unprobed phases of the sen sational mystery. From various authentic sources In high circles of the film industry, de tectives today gleaned information that confirms theories held frvm the beginning that some woman, believed to be conected with the motion Picture colony, either was directly connected with the murder or holds facts, which, if known, would result in the solution of the crime and the probable appre hension of the murderer in a few hours. Hollywood Is Covering Ip. On every hand investigators report ed they had encountered what ap peared to be a tendency to "cover up" or withhold information that would substantiate several possible motives for the crime. In accordance with this conviction of police investigators, it was stated this morning that several notable mo- tion picture actresses would again De subjected to close examination in a new effect to wrest from them addi-' tional facts about the life, habits and associates of Taylor. I With the gradual elimination of several theories, including the one j that the eastern lover of a famous j film star might have had a part In the i slaying and that some enemy from the j days of Taylor's mysterious past, I partly revealed by the discovery that his real name was William Deane-: Tanner, might have tracked down his quarry after years ot searcn, ponce are concentrating on a small circle ot mot'on picture notables.

Little Likelihood Brotherhoods and Miners Will Join. "Washington, Feb. 7. Launching of a nation-wide farmer-labor movement intended to wield a far reaching and powerful influence in this year's con gressional elections is the purpose of the conference of labor and agricul tural leaders to be held at Chicago, February 20, It was disclosed today. There is no thought of a "third party" movement in the minds of those behind the call for the confer ence. It was stated it is their plan to "bore from within" instead of from without the Republican, Democratic parties in a systematic campaign to elect senators and representatives of progressive -liberal tendencies, who can be depended upon to act in con gress against the "reactionary forces." To Iefeat Reactionaries. The defeat of the so-called reaction aries of both parties who come up for re-election this year is also planned. The big drive is to be-undertaken to change the complexion of the con gressional delegations from a number of industrial and agricultural states from which increasing reports of eco nomic, financial and industrial distress are now pouring in upon congress and are giving both "old guard" Republi can and Democratic leaders grave concern. The Chicago conference is not to be associated with that called recently by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, it "was said. Spokes men for the railroad brotherhoods who are to take an active part in the Chicago conference may attend the one summoned by Lewis, but those conversant are likely to be affiliated with the mine workers in the anthra cite-bituminous coal strike which many regard as inevitable. Employ Practical Politics. The object of W. H. Johnston, presi dent of the International Association of Machinists and those associated with him in calling the Chicago con ference is to employ "practical po litical methods" and to "fight the old line politicians of both the Republican and Democratic parties with their own fire," it is explained. Formation of a national "farmer labor bloc" which will far exceed in weight and influence the famous "agricultural bloc" while pursuing similar lines for the betterment of not only the farmer but of organized labor and. of the people generally, is believed to be the ambition of those behind the new movement. Agricultural conditions in Iowa, Ne braska, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota and other middlewestern states are reported to be extremely pro pitious for the launching of such a movement from the standpoint of the farmer alone. Serious industrial con ditions in New England, West Vir ginia and elsewhere are regarded as certain to lend strong support to it. PAYS TRIBUTE TO WASHBURN Religious louder Says It Is One of Cleanest Colleges In Country. Honesty, earnestness and purity are the three touchstones of character, Sherwood Eddy international religious leader, told students of "Washburn col lege at chapel this morning in the first of his three speeches to college audiences today. He paid tribute to the high moral standards of Washburn college, which he described as one of tho cleanest in the country. Most of his hearers were surprised to learn that the famous religious worker is a native Kansan, born near Leavenworth. He said he remem bered conversations with is father about the welfare of Washburn col lege. Tho the college authorities have been trying to get Eddy to speak; here for several years, it is the first time he has been able to visit Topeka. On this trip he will also speak et K. S. A. C. f Trifling things are very Important, Eddy declared, if they lead to the formation of habits. Little dishones ties, he said, lead to greater ones. Washington and Lincoln were not greater intellectually than Aaron Burr and Douglas, he said, but they gained their places in history because of their honesty. Bluffing In college or elsewhere Is plain dishonesty, Eddy declared. Chicago Policemen Get Shock in Wrist? Wireless System Being Planned Wherewith to Keep City's Guardians Front A'apping on Their Beats. Chicago, Feb. 7. The old-fashioned policeman who pulled a box and then spent an hour napping in some shel tered corner is threatened with a shock in the wrist. Chicago offi cials, planning to equip every patrol man with a portable wireless set are considering transmitting their signals by attaching two electrodes to each patrolman's wrist and attracting his attention by passing an electric im pulse thru his system. Visible or oral signals are unsuited to the needs of the policeman pa trolling a beat, the city's wireless ex perts say, and so they have begun ex perimenting with the shocking plan. Berlin, Germany, policemen have been equipped with an eight-pound wire less set which transmits a shock when headquarters wants a recipient to run to the nearest callbox. The instru ments are sewed in the officer's clothes so he has no chance to forget and leave them at home. By a system of selective transmis sion Chicago wirelees engineers believe it will be. possible to confine receipt of the signal to policemen in a cer tain specified area. A general alarm might wake up all the sleeping po licemen in the city. Workers in Meeting at C. of C. Friday Jioon, Feb. 10. First Action for Sear East to Take Place in Topeka. ASK 3,000 BBLS.

Allen of Kapsas commenting in an interview here today, on the release of Howat yesterday on J2.000 bond, and his promise to refrain from labor agita tion in the future. Governqr Allen cited the present normal operation of the Kansas coal mines as the answer to Howat's re ported statement that the wheels of Kansas mining industry would be idle as long as he was held.

LETTER TO GOVERNOR ALLE.J Wrfnts GoTernor to Assume Re sponsibility for Claims. He Asserts There Hbtc Been Unnecessary Expenses. In a letter sent Gov. H. J. Allen, Tuesday. State Auditor N. A. Turner undertook to put the jfvernor on rc ord as assuming responsibility for see ing: to it that no deficiency claims are presented to the next legislature thru over-expenditures, and again called upon all state officials to set an econ omy example that will result in the lowering of taxes. Turner's letter to Governor Allen was in answer to a letter he received from the governor some days ago in which the governor was replying to the auditor s plea for greater econ omies in the running of the state's business. When the aud.tor calied for an "economy conference" sonio months ago the governor accused him of "grandstanding" and asserted there were no extravagances in the running of the state's business. Since then Governor Allen has made a .number of speeohes including his eloquent Kansas jJay speech in which he hu belittled the increase in state taxei and has made eloquent defense of tho way his administration has been run. Charges "Too Much Junketing. Turner, however, in his letter of Tuesday asserts there have been un necessary expenses unnecessa ry sa I -aries paid to employes and "too much junketing." In this connection tho auditor says: "I cannot agree with you that there was no foundation rr justification for my calling attention to these matters many months ago, and I am pleased to tell you there has been, since that time, a reduction in the number of persons employed in many of the de partments, including the public utili ties commission, industrial court, state board of health, with no Increase in any of the departments so far as f have been able to discern. A very noticeable decrease In the number of traveling expense accounts outside the state also is to be found." Aitho the auditor refused to con firm it, it is said a number of state departments, including the national guard organization and the hank com missoner's office, are facing deficien cies. However, the auditor takes the governor's word for it for the time being at least that there will be no deficiencies and in his letter dealing with this matter he says: "It is gratifying to me to have you assume the responsibility of speakinc for all of the institutions of Kansas, and to know that you have assurance that no deficiency claims will be pre sented by any of them to the legisla ture when it convenes in January."

Director, Washing ton. The armament conference called by JM.-sitl lit Harding, has completed, its work. It i:ov.' remains to be seen v, hat ir, hits accomplished. That it has made progress in the direction o world peace and a reduction in the ex penses incident to preparedness for v.ar there seems littTe room for Qoubt. The, value of the work of the confer ence now resti largely with the Unified States .vjnate. IC the senators cuii subvert political considerations to the welfare of humanity, the world v. ilt'take the greatest forward step in its history. The disarmament treaty probably will appeal to the people more strongly than did the. League of Nations, because it eaves them money nov.-, while the league was formed for the dis-.tar.t future. The conference promt es to stand as a monument to J'rcfeident Harding. It is a curious commentary on out standards of lire ;aml property that the male person is not old or wise enough to make a contract until he is II. but finite old enough, after he passes 1 6, to pro to jail for life. This I'cniiiif l is suggested by the recent Oklahoma case, in which two boys of IS mid J 9 have been sentenced to life irnpri.'-onment,for participation In a lynching. Allni-ently the arms conference clcies not agree with the late General Hancock's declaration that the tariff is a local Issue. It has taken up the revision of the tariff schedules of China. There ore indications that they will continue to try Fatty Arbucklc in Cal ifoinia as long as the film star's bank loll holds out. IMJ STRIKICS PAY Apparency the preliminary efforts rt medial ion between tho coal oper ators and miners have not produced rn'VHiratring results, and events are drifting toward a general coal strike. Officers of the United Mine Workers say they wi'.l not consider a reduction of pay, but, on the contrary, will press for an increase. Furthermore, they will not' permit any of their members to work in nonunion or open mines. Hence the situation seems to be dead locked at the very start. Meantime, the public is clamoring for lower cost of fuel, shippers are demanding re duced railroad rates on coal and miners allege that with slack work they are not earning a living wage even nt the present rates of pay. Opere.tors in the central competitive field have shown no disposition to meet with officials of the miners' union for conferences. They declare they are not eager to make a new wage scale for two reasons: First, that the existing rate of pay must be mate rially reduced, and second, that they have suffered so severe competion from the nonunion fields that they are placed at a great disadvantage by en tiring into a contract with the union. There are approximately 50,000 union miners in the United States, and if they all go out on strike they will sacrifice in earnings estimating tho average wage at $5 a day a total ot $2,750,000 each day that the strike lasts. It is estimated that the cost of transporting a ton of coal from the mine to the consumer is $2.74 on the average, so that, figuring production at ..000,000 tons a week, the strike would, mean a loss in revenue to tho railroads of about $3,250,000 a day. This sum added to the loss In wages makes a total sacrifice of $0,000,000 a day to tho- miners ;and the carriers. What the loss of the operators and of the industries of the country would amount to can only be guessed, but It would be very great. The government, after carefully' compiling the figures of wages- lost in this country last year to men on Ftrike, finds it to be $13,000,000 for evtry working day, after allowing six national holidays and 62 Sundays. The total for the year is $4,000,000,000, almost enough to run the government itself in these times of expensive gov ernment. The striker seems to take an inex plainable sense of 'independence In go Ine on strike, says Popular Mechanics, but if those who have been indulging in the occupation ot Rinsing, jor are thinking of doing so, would take a I pencil and sit down to figure out the j net result with their wives, they would then be in a better position to answer to themselves, the somewhat essential question "Does it pay?" There has been a reduction of ap proximately one-third In the death rate in this country in the past eleven years- due largely, it is believed, to the public health service. But the deaths from automobile accidents con tinue to Increase in number, despite the accident prevention work that has been carried on. Curtailment of one menace to human, life is quickly, fol lowed by the appearance of another.. THK FARMER'S NEEDS. In his address before the fann con ference held in Washington, recently, President Harding pointed1 out that the great industrial corporation sells its bonds In order to get its fixed or plant capital. Just as the farmer sells a mortgage on his land in order to get at least a large part of his fixed or plant capital. Both the manufac turer and the farmer, said the presi dent, still require provision of work ing capital. The manufacturer, whose turnover is rapid, finds that in the sea sons when he needs unusual amounts of working capital he can igo to the bank and borrow on short-time notes. His .turnover is rapid, and the money will come back In time to meet his short-term obligation. The merchant finances his operations in the same way. But the farmer is in a different case. His turnover period is a Jonif one, his annual production is small compared to the amount of invest ment. For almost any crop the turn over period is. at least a year; for live stock it may require two or three years for a single turnover. Yet the farmer is compelled, if he borrows his working capital, to borrow for short periods, to renew his paper several times before his turnover is possible, and to take the chance that if he is called upon untimely to pay off his notes he may be compelled to sacrifice growing crops or unfinished livestock. Obviously the president declared 'the farmer needs to have provisions, adapted to his requirements, for ex tension of credit to produce his working capital. Mr. Harding, however, seems to have overlooked an important feature of the situation and that is the un certainty of the farmer's business. Those who lend him money must take chances, along with the farmer on crop, failures, due to drouth, insects stpsms and floods. If the farmer's crop fail and his farm be already mortgaged, how is he to pay? Under these conditions the only safety for him and for his creditors seems to lie in crop insurance. 4 This protection for himself and his creditors already is available and agents for companies selling such in surance report that they are doing an 'extensive business in this line in Kansas. The president said further: "There should be developed a thoro code of law and business procedure, with the proper machinery of finance, thru some agency, to insure that turnover capital sharp be as generously sup plied to the farmer and on as reason able terms as to other industries." This suggestion is a good one, but if the farmer's business can be made as safe as other businesses, the needed capital probably will be forthcoming without resort to legislation. Capital always recognizes a good and safe thing when it sees it. But it can not be blamed if it shy at investing in a business so" uncertain ets the pro duction of crops. Attorney General Daugherty's charges against retailers and retail trade associations are likely to destroy public confidence in an impor tant agency of distribution, according to The Nation's Business. In sub stance, the attorney general has de clared that retailers, backed by their associations, have been guilty of col lusion in fixing extortionate prices. The department of justice seems, it says, inclined to try the case of tho retailers in the newspapers rather than in the courts. To this methoi there is a direct advantage for it does not require the marshaling or disclos ing of facts. If the department of Justice has facts, or can find them, it has a. duty to set legal -machinery in motion that the laws of the country may be enforced. If the department has no such facts, its duty is equally plain. Already there have been suggested three ways for raising money for the soldier bonus, none of which would prova effective. They are a tax on 2 per cent beerT an additional tax on inheritances, and the sale of Brit ish bonds. There is no 214 per cent beer and is not likely to be any; an increased inheritance tax would be evaded and we have no British bond. Senators are said to agree that the senate's action on the armament treaty will be governed by public opinion That is more than can be said for the Versailles treaty. Such public opposition to that treaty as finally developed was worked up by the political opponents of President Wilson in and out of his own party. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL" Information Bureau FILED EBJO J. BASKXK, Director, Kacblneton, D. C. sl;PERSxmouS IX SPITE OP OIKSELVES. Xew York City, Feb. Are you superstitious? Do you experience a. strange thrill of apprehension when you spill salt, or when a biack cat crosses your path,, or when Friday, the thirteenth, comes around in the calen dar? Do you carry a rabbit's foot in your pocaet. or wear a charm on your watch fob? If so, you can con sole yourself with the thought that your secret weakness is shared by at least 95 per cent, of mankind, and probably more, including the greatest modernscientists and intellectuals. In fact, according to the recent an nouncement of a prominent psy chologist, there are only two kinds of people: Those who will admit they're superstitious, and those who won't. Not long ago a large New York de partment store, finding that a new line of Oriental jewelry had failed to make -itself popular with the femin ine public, changed ita advertisements to read: "New lot of Chinese lucky pieces that will charm away ill for tune." As a result the next day, the aisles around the Jewelry counter were blocked with a mob of enthusiastic shoppers, eager to obtain the magic baubles. Furthermore, the mob was not entirely feminine, but contained many men. J- Other stores, witnessing the success of the "lucky line," have how taken it up, and in a single block on Fifth avenue you can find half a dozen shops with conspicuous window .dis piays of "lucky charms." The fash ionable leather and gift shops have them in ivory and amber and jade at very high prices; while the drug stores have the "hear jade and composition amber kind which lie on, the same counter and blend very nicely with, the toilet articles. The wearing of charms," one dealer says, "has become especially popular since the war when many soldiers adopted the habit of carrying lucky token usually- trinkets given them by their best girls as a protection against the enemy's gas and bullets. Well, many of them who wove the charms came safely home, and you can't persuade them to discard them. A Superstitions Agnostic. "I know a man who has one of the brightest minds I've ever met. He's a big engineer with a big reputation, and he also has a well-developed taste for books and pictures. He's an ag nostic and he swears he doesn't even believe in Fate, but h"e carries in his pocket a little good hand that was pre sented to him by an old woman near the front lines in France. He never goes anywhere without- it, altho We says he doesn't exactly believe in it. "The old lady gave it to him just before he took a detail of engineers up to bridge a stream. The enemy was waiting for them on the -other side, and every man felt sure that the building of that bridge would be the last work he wotild ever do. But just bfore they leached the stream, athik fog descended upon the place and completely hid them from the enemy until the work was finished. Every man returned safe and sound. After that, the chief engineer carefully treas ured his little gold hand." The fact that superstition ofterf has a strong hold upon men of high de gree of education and intelligence was definitely proved some years ago by Hr Addington Bruce, who conducted an investigation of the) prevalence of superstition among the teaching staff of Harvard university. He himself was astonished by the results which shewed, he says, that 73.4 per cent of the faculty were either consciously or unconsciously under superstitious in fluence. Said one Harvard professor: "I must say that I don't think I should feel very comfortable if seated 13 at a meal, or living in house numbered 13." Another confessed that he always I picked tip pins when he found them lying on the floor or on the sidewalk. "It seems to me," he said, "that I do this automatically, but there may be a superstitious remnant in it." "My one superstitious practice, If you can call it such," wrote still an other, "is to knock on wood after boasting of my health or good for tune." One instructor admitted that' he had a certain amount $f faith in the truth of the old saying, "Sing before break fast, and you will cry before night." Another said: "I have an instinctive dislike of seeing the new moon over my left shoulder.' Early Impressions Responsible. Bruce thinks that the influence ot popular superstitions upon the edu cated adult minj may be explained largely by the fact that they are ac quired in childhood "that plastic period when the mind is most recep tive and the critical faculty most in abeyance. The folk tales of the nurserv and kitchen," he says, "the superstitious saying of the older mem bers of the family circle make a tre- mendous impression on the mind of the child. This would not matter so much were it not for the fact that im pressions of childhood, especially when they appeal strongly to the emo tional in man, 'are apt to persist thru- out life." He also points out that superstition has played an important part in the development of all religions and gov ernments and quotes a British an thropologist, Dr. J. G. Frazer, who declares that "the salutary princip'a of respect for government, can be traced, in part, at all events, to the superstitious reverence with which primitive peoples have always regard ed their chiefs, holding them in awe as persons possessed of supernatural powers. This attitude, still much in evidence among savage tribes, seems to have been shared by the ancestors of all Aryan peoples; while in England a lingering relic of it remained until as late as the eighteenth century in the notion that scrofula could be healed by a touch of the king's hand. "Similarly, respect lor property was vastly strengthened by that form of superstition known as 'taboo' bv which that supernatural power suv posed to reside in the person of the chieftain was transmitted to his mov able property his clothes, tools. weapons, ornaments, in fact, to every thing he touched. "Respect for human life was long promoted by the world-wide belief in the ability of the ghost of murdered man to haunt his slayer." Religion's Font or Superstitions. Many of our most popular supersti tions toaay nave been traced to reli glous sources, as, for instance, the un lucky nature of Fridav- and the num ber 13. The dread of the number 13 is well-nigh universal. loiRome and Florence it is never used incumbering houses, nor on theater boxes nor in making up lottery lists. In India the thirteenth year is feared like plague In Persia people carefdlly refrain from pronouncing the number, and in Turkey it is avoided as far as possible in conversation. It is thought that thirteen acquired Its unfortunate repu tation at the Lord's Supper when thir teen men sat at table. The last to take his place is supposed to have been Judas. Yet there is no proof that Judas was the last to be seated, and, furthermore, there is considerable evi dence to show that 'the evil thirteen existed long before the Christian era. It is generally acceptedhowever, that Friday is held to be-unlucky because Christ was crucified on that day. The history of superstition, indeed, presents some fascinating aspects, but It is not at all flattering to the race. It shows that in spite of all our rail roads and motor cars and gas bombs and aeroplanes, we are emotionally Just about as. primitive as we were when the race was young. We still gaze cautiously at the new moon over the proper shoulder, and we still cher ish a half-ashamed belief in the power of charms. r Dorothy Dix Talks MX DOROTHY BIX Waria'a Hlrhest raid VTaman Writer.

'She was young, .pretty and alert. In the khaki suit, with regula tion army trousers which she wore, she looked more like a boy. than a girl. Now sho was seated in her small touring car beating it rapidly over a stone road from Detroit to Indiana. The space just in front vof the rear seat of the car was piled with six cases of whisky which had -been brought from Canada the night before. Over this .was a worn carpet. In the Indiana city to which the girl was bound, her partner was waiting for her. He was the actual sales agent the man who disposed of the wet goods at prices running up to $15 a quart to the leading business men of the city. Since Agnes had gone Into partnership with him in this bootleg-J ging deal they had cleaned up over $8,600 and the start of their partner ship in crime was only three months past. But as Agnes drove swiftly and au daciously, her pretty face looked troubled. She wasn't happy at all. Two things were worrying her deeply.'' One or these was the fact that it waa against her better nature to be a boot legger, and the othef was that her old-time sw-eetheart, Tom Moore, whom she hadn't seen for years, had turned up in Detroit just before she had started on this trip to Indiana and had made violent love to her a&ain. Agnes had thought that all her former sentiment for Tom had left hen She had thought that her affec tions were entirely centered on John Greenleaf, her bootlegging partner. But now she wasn't so sure about it. Tho Agnes didn't fully realize it, the conflict which was now going on in her breast was really a conflict be tween right and wrong. Before going into partnership with Greenleaf she had been as poor as a church mouse, but had led an irreproachable life. Now she had more money than she had ever had before, and her con science was hurting her. Tom's arrival had brought affairs to a crisis, lor Tom was iindeniably good, undeniably square and honest. What was to be the outcome? Would she continue to make money bootlegging? Or would she give heed to Tom's avowals of love and turn around and be the sort of woman he would like her to be? It was while Agnes, unhannv and discontented, was hurrying along the Indiana highway, that she became sus picious ot a car some distance behind her. It was her habit while running a cargo of liquor through to keep a wary eye ior suspicious cars and now sue leanzta mtii me car benmd rer nad been-TolIowing her for some time. Was it the car of a prohibition officer? This thought troubled Agnes more than ever, now that her conscience was awake and active, and. conse quently, she put on mors speed than ever, hoping quickly to leave the car Denind. But the car kept coming right along. more man mat. It Kept gaining on her. Soon it was abreast of her. Then Agnes gasped. The driver of me year was Tom Moore! yuite astonished at Tom's- unex pected appearance beside her, Agnes Drought her own machine to a quick stop. Tom did likewise. Agnes got oat or ner car and rushed up to Tom. 'Why, Tom!" .she cried, "what are you doing here? Ithought you were uacit m uetroit. It seemed to Agnes that Tom looked evasive. 9 "I've got a job," said Tom briefly. "What doing?" queried Agnes. Tom hesitated. He looked at her for a brief moment, then looked away. "Well, you know," said Tom, "you always said I didn't get ahead or make money because I was too righteous and honest." His handsome young eyes were deep and inscrutable as he looked at Agnes upon saying this. "Yes," said Agnes. "Well," went on Tom, "I've about come to the conclusion that jou're right about it. A fellow's got to be a little crooked t get ahead nowadays. I guess I'm no better than any one else. I guess it's up to me to quitbe ipg so sanctimonious." Agnes heard him almost unbeliev-, ingly. But there could be no doubt' about what he was saying. -And as the real meaning of what Tom was saying sank .into Agnes's consciousness, she felt her heart sinking.' Somehow it seemed as tho her last hold on every thfagthat was good and sweet and wholesome was slipping away from her. "Why, Tom," she cried, "what do, you mean?" t "I mean this!" exclaimed Tom. With a quick movement of his right hand he threw back the side curtains which had screened his rear seat. Then he pointed dramatically to a carpet covered load just in front of the rear seat. Agnes could hardly believe her eyes. Could it be possible that Tom- the man she had always thought to be the best man in the world was actually But perhaps she was mistaken after all. With a quick rush to the car Agnes jerked away the carpet covering. There beneath the covering reposed six- booze cases! Agnes staggered bacl? as tho she had been struck. Tom a bootlegger! Tom, the man who had held fast to ideals and to honesty and to every--thing worth while in the face of a'l temptations. To thmk of Tom goiig in for this sort of a thing. It was bad enugh for Agnes to be in it, but for Tom. too She felt hurt, dreadfully hurt. "Tom. how could you?" she cried. "How could you s It seemed to Agnes that Tom looked abashed- Bat he gazed at her stead ily nevertheless. "It can't be so terribly bad." he said," "or you wouldn't be" doing it." Agnes put her hand up to her face at this as tho to ward off a blow. She really felt akrmst as tho Tom had struck her. Certainly he had hurt her, and yet she really deserved it. Un doubtedly she -was the cause of Tom getting into this. "They tell me you're in love with a bootlegger,", said Tom. "If that's the sort of man who can win your love, then me for it. I can bootleg as well as any one else. And you know I'd do anything for you, Agnes almost any thing." Agnes retreated swiftly to" her car. She simply couldn't speak. How Tom's words brought the whole situation home" to her! Was she really in love with a bootlegger? Or had shi been swept off her feet by the easy money, the excitement, the lure of John Greenleafs skilled wooing-? Without another word Agnes crawled into her car and started furi ously down the. road. iQuite suddenly she had come to is. decision. She knew now just whjre ;he stood, just -what she -was going to do, just what sort of future life she waa going to lead. As shelipca down the road she turn ed and looked back. Tom was follow ing close-behind her. A grim, set look came into her face as she made this discovery. A mileshe sped down the road, then another mile and a half mile farther before she stopped with a,rattling of the car's brake-bands directly in the middle of a concrete bridge over a little stream. As she stopped she saw Tom draw up beside her. Without looking t Tom. Agnes jerked the six cases of liquor from the tonneau of her car. Then, quickly, efficiently, she threw each bottle over the bridge to the rocks in the river below, where each bottle smashed to r bits as it fell. hen she had fin ished with this she dumped the cases themselves over the bridge into the water. Then she turned tragically to Tom. "I'm thru with it all thru," she cried. "I'm going to turn over every cent I've made by bootlegging to the government!" For a moment she stopped as an in finite sorrow came into her rface. "Oh, Tom," she cried, "I'm so sorry so terribly sorry you've skidded. I never loved Greenleaf--I can see that now. It was simply infatuation. And I could never, never, love a man who wasn't perfectly square and honest and upright!" To Agnes's greVt surprise a smile came to Tom's face at this. "I knew it!" exulted Tom. "I knew you were O. K. at heart even if you did make a mistake. I knew you couldn't love a man who was a law breaker. So, look!" From the car Tom jerked one of the booze cases. Quickly he broke one of the bottles on the bridge. Smcll it! Taste it!" he cried. "Colored water! That's all it is. There's no booze in my caV. I'm not a bootlegger. Infilled up the car with this fake stuff to wake you up. And I did thank heaven!" For just a moment Agnes gazed at Tom in amazement. Then a great joy rushed into her heart. She flew into his arms. Tom was still square and honest and upright the one man she really loved the only kind of a man she could love! (Copyright. 1922, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)

"But I'm afraid I shan't have any time to go out. This work will have to be done evenings. But perhaps you can go occasionally." He had seen her face drop; "Very well! I don't mean to settle down like an old woman if you do!" "Me an old woman!" "Sou know what I meant; if you are contented to be an old man." "I'll do my best to stay young with you, icin, ne answered, yet he al ready felt old, and discouraged. But he was happier now that he had more money to give Helen, altho ho often worked far into the night to earn it. several times he had been oongeu 10 lei me janitress come up and help after dinner so-that he might devote the entire evening to he long lows ox iigures on nis desk. eien naa Deen as enthusiastic as ever about her bridge, but with vary ing luck. She had run the household bills, and .lack often felt a heart sink ing wnen they came in, but as far a possible he avoided saying anything about them. They must, of course, be paid but unless she were too willfully extravagant he would say nothing. Why worry her about them? Jack always listened to Helen's cnatter on clut) days, trying to act in terested in all she told him. Yet he couia detect an envious strain thru all her talk. "I hate riding In street cars!" she said one night at dinner. She had been telling of the afternoon, the loveiy gowns the women,wore and sn on. "Half the club come in their own cars. "I'm sorry, old dear, but the street cars wm oe our only .motor for i good manv venra T'm nfrat Thn "YTju could take the stago if it went conveniently near. "It hardly ever does! Oh. how I hate being poor! If I didn't love you to death I'd get desperate." It was sucii remarks as these that kept Jack from forbidding Helen many things they could not afford. He was burning the candle at both ends, and had begun to show it. "Better take It a bit easy, old man," Howard Dunn said upon meeting him one day at the office, "you look pretty seedy. Hall tells me you are doing night work. Cut it out: You'll break down." "No, I won't, and I can't make enough .without it." Dunn said no more, but he did a lot of thinking: "I'll bet he has a hard time satis fying that pretty wife of his. "She struck me as being rather spoiled," he soliloquized. And because he had really grown fond of Jack Hunter, he srave him several good leads that brought results. "We'll do famously this month." Jack said to Helen. "I wrote two $10,000 policies today." "QJi, isn't that lovely!" she kissed him rapturously. "I can have a new dress. I need one dreadfully. This wearing- the same old duds all the time is awfully mortifying." "I'll pay up all the bills first, then we'll see what is left." "You mean I can't jtave any to buy clothes until all the bills are paid! I think you ae awfully bad to me." "That's just what I mean. Helen," Perhaps Jack had spoken more severe ly than he knew or intended, for Helen burst into perfect flood of tears, unusual to her. "You should have married a woman who didn't care how she looked, one of the frumps you see around. I sup pose ypu would be happy if I let my self get like them, but I won t: bo you needn't expect it." "There. Helen, I think there will be enough for the bills and some new clothea for you also." H said nothing of the suit he had intended to buy to replace the shabby one he was wear ing. That would have to wait. (Tomorrow A new.i!uit. JUST FOLKS CT EDGAR A. GUEST. Pf RATE DATS.

It' takes from nine to twelve months to season cord wood thorolv. but the uioisthre content can be reduced C5 per cent in about three months. Q. What iB the origin of the word wheat and where was it first grown? T. T. S. A. The word wheat can be traced back tb the old Knglish wonl hwaete, allied to hwit. meaning white. The most ancient languages mention wheat, and the fact that it has been found ia prehistoric lake dwell ings of man is proof of its antiquity. TH t'hlnese cultivated it .1.1100 years H. and it constituted the chief crop of ancient Kpvpt and Palestine. Its geographical origin is somewhat uncertain, but the best existing evidence seems to point to Meso potamia as the original source. At least there is rather wide acceptam-e of the be lief that wheat grew wyd in the Tigris and Kupbrates valleys and that it spread from there to l he rest of the world. Q.

Knock "Babe" Ruth. 2. Pat Adelaide on the shoulder. S. Mention "When Winter Comes." 4. Knock the "big three." I batted .750. W. S. II. Sir In re column contest, I received more than I thought I would: I got my full name in the column when I would have been tickled to death to see even my initials in print; and, in addition, your dictum that my column (with others) was pretty good. After reading Crabb's column I have come to theconclusion the only reason he got his in while mine was discarded is that he wrote the best column. Damme if I didn't pretty near go out and buy his book after reading his column. If he writes many more columns he will be crawling up into your class. i G. B. Notes of the contest: There is sonis mail at this desk for Mr. -Crabb. It breaks about fifty-fifty; it will make Mr. Crabb feel good and bad. We have ifiislaid his address.

The fellow is wrong about one thing: He didn't write us twice: we had not previously heard from him. He is right about another: He ha. not heard from us and, unless he reaOs the column, he never will. It prob ably is true investors from all sections of the country have subscribed: there are gudgeons everywhere. He is right also in his assumption that there must be a reason. There is. It is that he is a crook engaged in an effort to 'flint flam" the public in a "gum" garhe. -However, we'll hypothecate the pay checks for the month of June against $100 on the proposition that the poor fish who are falling for his bait never get back a dollar of Interest or prin cipal.

Kansas Chiefs Declare Profes sional Football Must Go. By the Associated Press.) Chicago, Peb. 7. Athletic directors of seventeen middle western uni versities in statements tothe Associ ated Press tdday, suggested drastic ways of combating professionalism in college sports and agreed that prompt action must be taken, particularly in regard to football. The suggestion Included abolish ment of pro football, formation of a national organization to fight profes sionalism In colleges, aid from the press in preserving college amateur ism, co-operation with pro organiza tions to prevent signing of college men and a general athletic house clean ing at home in all universities. Some directors urged immediate revision of the rules on professionalism while others said the present rules were sufficient if properly enforced. One. director thought elimination of stadium drives would help, saying there was too great a temptation now to overlook professionalism for the sake of getting a winning team which would help in the stadium drive. An other placed the blame for profession alism squarely on the schools them selves, saying they "had winked at summer baseball so long," that they had brought on the-recent revelations of pro football. Many urged ptompt settlement of the summer ball ques tion shelp toward clearing up the matter. Summaries of the statements follow: Tom E. Jones. Wisconsin "We must e re nte so strong a sentiment among the play ers and tbe public that It would be Impos- siiHfr to induce a college man to turn pro. Atnletic officials must take a fin stan l. ls.n limine mid weed oat the cheap pro. Tbe press, the public and the faculties should help In this matter. Haute Itockne.

"Washburn high school and Seaman will "fight it out" in a basketball game on the Seaman court Friday night. This game will probably de cide whether "Washburn or Seaman will occupy second place in the Shawnee County league at the close of the season. Washburn now holds second place with two games won and one lost. Seaman has one victory to its credit and three defeats. Wash burn defeated Seaman in a game played on the Washburn court recent ly by a score of 4 6 to la. Glenn Logan, Seaman coach, is con fident of victory and states that Sea mar, will come out of the game with the long end. of the score. Seaman will also play Meriden, Auburn and several church, teams in the near fu ture. The dates for these games have not been set. I.-awrence" Woodward, Washburn roach, is also sure his boys can win. He believes they can defeat Seaman by a much larger margin than ia the previous contest. The lineup will be as follows: "Washburn. Seaman. Grotewohl, f. Robinson, f. Tirown. f. French, f. T.

The Santa Fe girls' basketball team played a tie game with the Gardner, Kan., team Saturday night at Gard ner. It is planned to play off the tie in the near future but the date has not been decided upon. The Santa Fe girls havea reputation for playing good basketball. The rhembers o the team are: C. Anstaett. Virginia Smith. M. Zimmerman. Irene McDowell, Mary .eese. Vera Smith. v BASKETBALL JfOTES BY HAROLD HENDERSON. The Lawrence high school quintet is another aggregation that will make a strong bid for the state high school title. Lawrence defeated Emporia in a game played last week on the Law rence court. Emporia naa won irom practically all the strong teams in its territory. Lawrence also defeated Sa lina ia a recent game. Salina has played a high brand of basketball this season. Lawrence wiil play Chanxite t Chanute Friday and Iola at lola Saturday. These games will beprac tical tests of Lawrence's ability to cope with style of play in southeast Kansas. Lawrence and Emporia continue to fight it out. For the last three sea sons the teams have played close ganfes. Lawrence will play Emporia a return game on February 25. The Emporians will have Lawrence at a disadvantage then. The Council Grove De Molay team made a comeback Saturday night when it defeated the quintet of the Osajvatomie chapter. The Emporia chapter has previously defeated Coun cil Grove by a- one joint margin. Council Grove will meet Osawatomie in a second battle at Council Grove on February 8. Emporia high school not only has a first team to be proud of but also a second team. The second team met its first defeat of the season Friday night, when it -lost to Quincy school by a score of 31 to 35. Altho tha Sumner county high school league Is overshadowed by the Arkansas Valley league, a number of miintets in the leacrue rvlav a verv hieh grade of basketball. Mulvane won its sixth consecutive victory ssaturaay night bv, defeating Viola by a score f 60 to 10. The scrappy Buffalo. Kan., Amer ican Legion team is riot willing to let a single field basket decide Its cnam pionship chances. It had claimed the southern Kansas legion championship until one week ago when the Coffey ville American Legion team defeated it by a- score of S2 to 30 in a game played on the Buffalo court. Buffalo did not lose faith because of her de feat but immediately challenged Cof feyville to a game on the Coffeyville court Coffey villa accepted the chal lenge to uphold her reputation altho she was not sure she could win two consecutive victories. The rami will bo played tonight. Fans who favor the small town team wish it success but hopethe game won't end in a stampeoe. Kirwin. Kan., one- of the liveliest basketball towns in northwest Kansas, has made application, to the Kansas State High School Athletic association, for an official preliminary tourna ment. Kirwin held a very success ful tournament in 1921. The town has about 700 inhabitants. K. U. DEFEATS IOWA STATE Score Was 32 to 21 hi Game Played at Lawrence. The T." Tnca. imivftrsitv altnthii 11 team -defeated the Iowa State college quintet by 4l score of 32 to 21 in a game played Monday night on the university court. Altho the game was hard fought. Kansas held the lead thruout he game, lowa state oniy lacKea one point of tying the score at two dif ferent times. The sci.re at the end of the first half was, Kansas, 12; Iowa State, 6. v By this victory Kansas strengthened its hold on second place and is now only three games behind Missouri, the league leaders. Kansas will play two more games this week. It will meet Kansas State college at Manhattan on Wednesday night, and Oklahoma at Lawrence on baturday nignt. it Kan sas can win both of these games, it will make Missouri's lead a very uncertain. Conspicuous nose pores A PENNANT RACE Wichita-Xewton Contest' Is r'd. Interesting One. Game Friday Sight Will Be Played at Newton. The Wicriita -Newton high school contest at Newton Friday night will probably decide the pennant race in the Arkansas league for this season. Wichita by defeating Winfield last week retained its lead in the league. Wichita is credited with five victories and two defeats. Newton is occupying second place and is not idle at the present time. It has won four games and lost two. By winning from Newton, Wichita would probably clinch the flag, be cause only a decided mid-season slump could keep it from defeating the weaker teams it is yet to meet. Newton in case of a win could prob ably do the same trick. So the pen nant winnef will be the team which comes out of this battle with only two defeats marked up against it. Newton also has a reputation for getting revenge. Last year In a sched uled game it was defeated by Em poria. The Newton boys failed time and again to hitjthe hoop. When the preliminary tournament was held at Kansas State Normal, the Newton team left its own district and went to Emporia fo the sole purpose of -defeating Emporia high school decisive ly and it did it. i The eyes of high school basketball fans in Kansas are watching this league not only because of its su perior playing but also on account of its effect on the Kansas conference. The conference championship has ceen taken by Fairmount and South western during the last two seasons and southwestern now has a substan t;al lead in the nrewnt rac M Pherson and Bethel have also put -ut creditable teams thelast few seasons. The reason Is that these teams art; composed largely of former Arkansas valley players. The games in the league this week are: Fridayi-Wichita at Newton; Hutch inson at Nickerson; Kingman at Ar kansas City. Saturday Hutchinson at Wichita; Kingman at Winfield. Arkansas Valley Standings.

Caddock then pinned the Pole's shoul ders to the mat after 10 minutes --r' 80 seconds of wrestling. The 'deciding fall was awarded to Zbyszko after 19 minutes and 30 sec onds.

DOCTOR WINS THE MATCH First Fall Goes tc Romonof f Doctor Takes Aext Two. Altho Romonoff, claimant for the welterweight championship of the Pa cific coast, won the first fall in thirty one minutes, in a bout with Tommy Doctor Monday night at Warnick s hall. Tommy Doctor made a comeback and won the match by winning two straight falls. Romonoff.won the first fall on what appeared to be a fluke. Doctor was standing nearly erect, having a crotcn hold on Romonoff and forcing his shoulders to the mat, when Romonoff kicked Doctor in the face with such force that it 7threw him on his back. Doctor hit the floot with such force that he was dazed and did not get up and therefore Romonoff was credited with taking the fall. Doctor appeared very weak when climbing out of the ring for the intermission, At the beeinnintr of the second fall Doctor entered the ring and stayed by his man. He let Romonoff secure holds that looked like a sure fall in order to get a better hold on Romon off. 33ie second fall was a droplock and the third was a headlock. Rom onoff was 'dazed at the end of the sec ond fall from the shock and apparent ly never recovered fully during the match. The match was extremely rough. Only the strangle hold was barred during the bout. Romonoff was force to spit in Doctor's face and bite his arms and feet fn order to break holds at various times. Just before Doctor secured the hold which gave him the second "fall, he secured the upper hand and nearly threw Romon- orr out of the ring. "Sailor Jack" Lewis officiated. He will meet Allen Eustace in a bout at the city auditorium Wednesday night. SPOILER FOOD IS SOLD. State Food Inspectors Named to En. force Regulations Aon. St. Louis, Feb. t.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNALS-TUESDAY EVEyiNG, FEBRUARY 7, 102 liE DENIES CHARGE CoTcrnor Russell of Mississippi Says lie's Blackmail Target. Charges Ilattiesburg Editor and Attorney With Plot. Jackson, Miss., Feb. 7. The $100, 000 damage suit filed against Gov. Lee M. Russell by Miss Frances C. Birk head of New Orleans, alleging seduc tion, will be called for trial at the May term of federal court. Copies of Miss Birkhead's state ments and a lengthy affidavit setting forth her alleged relations -with the povernor. were procured by Governor Kusse-l from the court clerk last night, and he was in conference until a late hour with friends and attorneys. Miss Kirkhead is in New Orleans and is said to be a. hopeless invalid as a re sult of the two operations. In a lensthy statement issued last nisht bitterly denouncing the charge of Miss Birkhead as "an infamous blackmail," Russell said that Howard Williams, editor of the Hattiesburg American, and JohYi K. Tally, a prominent attorney of that city, have been Miss Birkhead's chief counsel lors of late. Mr. Tally issued the following state ment: "I never saw Miss Birkhead in my life, never had any -communication with her directly or indirectly, and Know nothing whatever about the case. The governor has my sincere sympathy." Mr. Williams said in a statement: "I saw Miss Birkhead last summer and she told me her story. I did not advise or counsel with Miss Birkhead in any way except to tell her that her Blory could not be handled unless it was "made a matter of record in the courts. "The woman was In destitute cir cumstances and in a pitiable physical pliht: further than this I know noth ing about her troubles. Major Will Perry, who is mentioned in Miss Birk head's statement as the person sent by Governor Russell to see her and try to make a compromise and who. ac cording; to her version, was trying to get the governor to settle for $10,000 is a conductor on the New Orleans Northwestern railroad with headquar ters at Meridian. He is a member of Gov. Russell's military staff. Captain A. B. Schauber, who is also mentioned by Miss Birkhead as a go between, was Governor Russell's cam paign manager in gubernatorial cam paign of 1920 and is now secretary of the general board of trustees, of Miss issippi's higher educational institu tions. Counsel for Miss Birkhead. in a statement denied the suit was a blackmail plot. MERCY CARGO (Continued fromPage One.) pother at the Chamber o Commerce Friday noon follows: Governor Allen's letter.

-.115 la TO HEAL Wf.hWf Local Mention cw Catholic Pontiff Favors Peace With Italy's King. United Interests Abroad De mand Old Quarrel End. (By the Associated Press.) Rome, Feb. 7 The Vatican today began to resume its usual brilliance '-.ised by the death of Benedict XV, in reparation for the coronation of the new pope, Pius XI on February 12. The Dontifical household was being set in order, and the rooms used by the conclave during tl.e election will soon assume their normal appearance. All Italy, judging from the messages received at the holy see, seems full of joy that Pius XI sits on the throne of St. Peti All predict from his first apostolic benediction that the breach between the church and the otjite will he heale.! duriner the present Dontificate. The pontiff's position in this regard as summed up in a speech which Jie delivered when installed last summer as archbiship of Milan, is now being widely quoted. He then said: "It is, above all, abroad that one sees and feels ho( the pope consti tutes the greatest dignity and prestige, for Italy. Thru him all the millions of Catholics in the whole world turn to Italy as a second fatherland. Thru him, Rome, is truly the capital of the world. Hold Coronation Sunday. "One would have to close his eyes not to see the prestige and advantage

our country oerives irom nis piesence. ered, he is super-nationally sovereign. 'A11 nations recognize in him a di vine institution. We Catholics of Italy who by divine ordination have the care of him are responsible in honor be fore the Catholics of the whole world." The coronation will take place on Sunday, it being the tradition of ,the Roman church to conduct the corona tion on the first holy day following the papal election. The ceremonies will take place in St. Peter's and the Sistine chapel. There was keen disappointment that Cardinal O'Connell, of Boston, arrived just too late to participate in the final ballot of the conclave. The American cardinal entered the conclave at 2:40 o'clock Monday afternoon and was re ceived by Cardinal Gasparri. The con clave was not officially dissolved until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. It was reported by the- newspaper La Tribuna that Cardinal O'Connell brought 2, 000. 000, representing American contributions to St. Peter's. GEORGE W. SCHICK DIES Came to Kansas From Pennsylvania More Than Forty Years Ago. George W. Schick, 70 years of age, died this morning at the home of J. T. Grange, 904 East Tenth avenue. He came to Kansas from Pennsylvania, his birthplace, more- than forty years ago, and has made his home with the Granges in Topeka since that time. He accompanied Thomas A. Grange, the father of J. T. Grange, to Kansas from Pennsylvania. The dead man leaves no surviving relatives. He was never married, and had no immediate family. PROF. CRAWFORD SPEAKS HERE Addresses Washburn Journalistic Stu dents About Newspaper Making. The public lacks confidence In the accuracy with which newspapers pre sent objective facts. Prof. Nelson A. Crawford, of the journalism depart ment at K. S. A. C, told the class in newspaper ethics' at Washburn col lege this morning. "It would be hard to tell how far this feeling is justified," he said, "be cause no investigation of adequate scope has ever determined it. But all men, in or out of the profession, who have studied thjje question admit that the news is nt reported as accurate ly as possible." Professor Crawford placed the blame for this failure- on two causes which, he said, are' responsible for many failures in other spheres of American, life ignorance and fear. American newspaper men, he said, are more ignorant than European newspaper men, tho the same com parison would be true between Ameri can and European professional men and business men. 'The reporter, the editor, the publisher are all alike ac tuated by fear of offending "the herd," Professor Crawford said. The unfounded popular explana'tion for newppaper inaccuracy, he said, is a belief that the newspapers are cor rupt or that they are in a conscious, deliberate conspiracy to1 suppress or play up certain types of news. The same two fallacies, he said, are com monly advanced in explanation of al most every other wrong, public or private, whose cause' is not clearlj' understood.

Freeland Johnson, of Wichita, late Monday filed suit in the Shawnee county district court asking for $2, 995 damages from the Union .Pacific Railroad company for the d"eath of his wife which occurred soon after she leaped or fell from a Union Pacific train near Newman, November. 15, 1921. Despite his appeals to the con ductor,.. Johnson alleges that the con ductor refused to stop the train and let him off until the train reached Perry. As the result of the alleged negli gence and carelessness on the part of the conductor. Johnson says he was unable to find his wife until the fol lowing morning when she was found dead in a small creek.

Eyen Extremists in Senate, and Cabinet Are Agreed. Washington, Feb. 7. The adminis tration's final decision on whether or not to participate in the Genoa eco nomic conference will be announced at next Friday's cabinet meeting, it Was Siaieu UlL.tlJlUJ' tvuuj a.. niv. White House. It is understood that the cabinet discussed at considerable length today the question of American participation and it was learned that there had been no change in cabinet t sentiment against the United States sending delegates to the Genoa meeting. Every indication points to nonpar ticipating by the United States, altho administration spokesmen were less vigorous today than heretofore in as signing reasons why this government should not take part in the meeting. The matter has been discussed at sev eral cabinet meetings and will likely be given a thoro overhauling again at today's1 session. Sentiment in the cabinet itself and in the senate is well igh overwhelm ing against the government's taking a full part in the Genoa meeting. Even those who hold such wide divergent views on international policies as Secretary of State Hughes and Secre tary of Interior A. B. Fall, one of the old senate "irreconcilables," find a common ground on which t to stand with regard to the Genoa meeting. That ground, is the United States should stay out. DEATHTfIRS.

I This year's exhibition of the Society of Independent Artists, which is to be held at the Waldorf hotel. New York City, March 11 to April 2, will contain a most interesting group of paintings done by the younger artists of the Hopi andiZuni tribes of Indians in New Mexico. These paintings depict the ceremonial life of the Pueblo In dians, and are beautifully conceived and executed. This exhibition will go to prpve con clusively that Cecilia Beaux's asser tion that there is no native American scTiool of art was a decidedly mis taken and ilV considered assertion, for here we have work done by strict ly aboriginal American artists who never saw the inside of a European art school, and the subject matter of whose ,wcrk is Ainerican life and scenery in the most exact and literal sense possible. The writer of this column had his first -opportunity Thursday af ternooji to havtrV really good look at the beau tiful and interesting exhibition of paintings now on at Washburn col lege, i ;In variety of subject and diversity of styles of work, certainly no more interesting and instructive exhibit of paintings has en-er been shown in To peka. The beholder is impressed by the absolute freedom from monotony, he sees something new and attractive at every step,and at every turn of his eyes, yet the number of pictures is not great enough to produce weariness or confusion. Most of the paintings are of wonder ful beauty and charm, the very best work of America's most noted artists; some of them men whose names have been household words for almost a generation. The largest, most expensive, and perhaps the most, impressive land scape (or rather it is a marine) is William Bitschel's "Stormbeaten Coast of California." It shows huge col umes "of green water of the Pacific surging and breaking on the jagged rocks and against the cypress studded cliffs in the neighborhood of Mnn- lterey. .While some critics may con- siaer tne treatment and coloring of this picture somewhat "academic" nevertheless there is an awesome grandeur about the work that fascin ates the beholder and produces a feel ing that is hard to describe. The pic ture is valued at $3,000. Another fine marine to rhe writer, the most beautiful that he has ever seen) isFrederick J. Waugh's "Surf After a Gale." The movement and the color of the water are superb, the great leaden swells that nerive their color from the low-scudding storm clouds, and the white foam as the great seas break on a low ledge of rocks, are wonderful indeed. Then too. the composition of the picture is so satisfying. Chauncey' F. Ryder's landscape, "Ross Turner's Shop" anid Ben Fos ter's "Wood liiterior," a scene in a pine forest. Sare both gems of land scape 'painting tho the one is totalljs different from the other in color, sub ject, composition and handling. T. F. Dumond's "Fairy Fold" is a most charming bit of weaving to. gether of natural fact and poetic fancy. This picture- is much admired by George M. Stone. Jonas Lie, whose name has ap peared with distinction In the art journals for so many years, has one picture in the collection, it -Is called "Gossip." The subject is a str scene, apparently in some French Canadian town, quite likely Quebec. Quaint old- dormer roofed houses in soft grays and pinks border the sleepy thorofare at the end of which is a rtcetp rocky cliff. In front of the houses groups of women chat and gossip while children romp and play in the roadway.. Jt is a picture one would like to possess. The second most valuable picture from the money standpoint, is C'hildc Hassam's "Springtime, Exterior Boule vard." It is 'the only picture shown by another .exceedingly well known artist. It is by no means a large painting. Its money value lies- in its masterly truth, its fine -technique and the standing of the artist. The sub ject is a simple Parisian scene, a wo man of the working class sitting on a bench in a little park on a bupy street, while the familiar traffic flows by. It is priced at S2,7!0. The painting that seems to attract the most attention of all and no won der, is Mrs. John Johansen's "Young Giri." A more beautiful portrait of a little girl would indeed be hard to con ceive. The painting is a large one and dominates the west room on the second floor of Boswell hall, where it is located, that is it dominates that room if you enter, by the east door, where you cannot see Ritschel's ma rine. The coloring and the techii fie at almost magical. The :onger you look the more you see to admire and wonder about. There are many other excellent pic tures in the exhibition, some of which you may think more beautiful than the ones described here, but time and soace forbid a further discussion of the exhibition at this time. To ap precitae this collection of art gems you must go and look at it yourself. In the 1921 Exhibition of the Artists, Sculptors, Designers Mu ciaus. and Writers of Missouri and Kansas, now going on at the Kansas City Art Institute in Kansas City, Mo., there are picture? by eleven Kansans, three ot them Topeka people. The T6peka artists are Miss Marian Peers, Mrs. Helen Hodge, and May nard Walker. Each of these persons has entered one picture, and their pictures are all landscape paintings. rews picture is enmieu "Woodland Path," and is said to have been" painted on the banks of the Shunganunga: M.rs, Hodge's picture is called "Morning in the Ozarks"; and Mr. Walker's, is "Evening ttlouds." Other Kansans exhibiting are Bir- ger Sanuzen of Lindsborg, wno has entered two paintings and three litho graphs, all of the landscape subjects: William. Hekking of Lawrence, who exhibits two portraits and two land scape studies in. oil; Alfred H. Clark of St, Marys, "Portrait of a Boy"; Ed. L. Davison of Wichita, a. portrait and a landscape; Lena Rue Kirby of Lawrence, one painting entitled, "Building"; H. 8. Shuler of Hutchin son. "Sketch": Houghton Crawford Smith of Lawrence, two landscapes painted In Ch4e; and Ivan Summers of Mo-scow, three landscape paintings. The department of sculptors con tains work by two Kansana, Ella B. Lucas of Lawrence, who exhibits a bronze plaque and a bronze and plas ter medallion portrait; and R. O. Van Horn of Leavenworth, some small figures carved in wood. In the jewelry and metal wovk de partment, one Kansan is exhibiting. She is Rosemary Ketcham of Law rence,. Rosemary Ketcbam also ex- S hibits in the leatherwork and book binding department a group of hand bound. books in levant and sealskin. In the ceramics department, Mrs. McFadSen .and Walter Timmerman. both of Kansas City, Kan., each have several pieces of work on exhibition. It m.ight be well to say here that Maynard Walker recently secured a position on the art staff 'of the Kansas City Star and has gone to Kansas City, Mo., to live. Several landscape draw ings and paintings which this young man has executed within the last eighteen months, exhibit a poetic Qual ity and a deep appreciation of aome of the more subtle and evasive qualities of nature, that stamp him as one of the romlng artists of Jrie west if not indeed of all America. v In view of the fact that Jonas Lie is one of the exhibitors in tho present Washburn college exhibition, it cer tainly is appropriate to. call Topeka people's attention to an article in Arts and Decoration for August, 121. This paper can be seen at the city library by asking the Reference librarian for it. The article is entitled. "Jonaa Lie, Citizen-Artist," arid is written, by E, May Tennant. It relates how Mr. Lie. who is a native and citizen of Plalnfield, N. J., in his intense desire for the art edu cation of the school children of the town, with his own hands and on his own time, redecorated the city's dingy art gallery, and then, hanging therein a group of his best paintings, pro ceeded to give the children free lec tures on- art for a period of three weeks or more. His work so roused the interest of the older people of Plalnfield that they- begged him to talk to them also, and he arranged a series of evening lectures for their benefit. Ho told his hearers what to see in a- picture, and how to go about find ing it. "He showed the difference between picturing a story (an illus tration) and capturing in paintng tome phase pz nature, a reeling ori sensation, and he brought out the contrast betwefen realism and impres sionism in art." It is needless to say that Jonas Lie has a warm place In the hearts of the citizens of Plainfield, both young and old. SEE END OF COALITION Acin sat :.dhs of E x t r a v uirance Now Tlurled at IJoyd George Rrlni (By tho Associated Fress.) London, Feb. 7. The approaching end of the coalition government which has controlled Great Britain's des tinles since early in the war, seen in the re-assembling at noon today of parliament for what is regarded on all sides as its last session. The sitting was opened by the king and queen with the customary for malities. General interest was taken in the question of the duration of the life of the present parliament, and the government tenure of office. The newspapers of all party affilia tions except the few definitely sup porting the government for a long time, have been cudgeling the admin iatration -for its alleged delinquency, QatJh party orkian having its own ncounds for attack. Accusations of extravaagance and failure to grapple with the question of national economy were among the foremost while others arose from the discontent regarding Ireland, the em ployment situation and th3 several minor matters.

Soothinq and Healinq for Skin and Scalplroubles Manufacturing OPTION GETS OLD RED HEN BACK C. E. Armstrong Was Anxious to IlocoVer a Hen, Which Was Op erated Upon Tills Chicken and Nineteen Others Were Stolen. New York, Feb. 7. "Burn it up! The Hollywood film colony is a per nicious influence. Scatter it, abolish it something ought to be done. Burn it up I say." Frank Mayo, screen and stage star and a resident of Hollywood made this statement here today. "If I express myself bitterly, I am cxpresing what every self respecting actor in Hollywood feels," said Mayo. "The best thing that could happen to movie pictures would be to abolish the Hollywood colony. I am not say ing it's rampant with immorality and degeneracy for that's not true, but it is a pernicious influence. Xo Outside Divcrsion.9. "One thing wrong is that there are no outside diversions. The result is every one is bored to death. All you hear is pictures, pictures, until you are almost frantic. few A i 5 it y r-r f h v ii fv 'X, II Mayo Once upon a time there lived an old red hen with a deformed beak The upper half of her bill pointed one way and the lower half the other way, much the same as a soldier's optics would appear should he receive the order "Eyes right," just as a bathing beauty was passing by on his left. C. E. Armstrong, 831 Chestnut street, owner of the old, red hen, was quit disgusted with her. She ex perienced great difficulty in eating and consequently grew thin and scrany and hardly ever laid an egg. Cannibalistic thoughts regarding the hen often entered Armstrong's mind, but ho couldn't get her fat enongh to kill, until one day it occurred to him to amputate the forward portion of the lower half of her bill. With this operation performed the hen was able to eat more rapidly and soon became so fat and laid so' many eggs that all thought of devouring her was driven from Armstrong's mind. Then came the thief in the night. While Armstrong and his family slumbered peacefully, the thief en tered the chicken house and' carried away twenty of his finest Rhode Is land Reds. Among them was the hen wTith the deformed beak. Armstrong scouted around a bit and finally lo cated Island Reds which bad been sold to the Dibble Grocery company. Armstrong immediately began a re plevin action in the court of Topeka. When the case came to trial Monday, it was his immediate rec ognition of the old red hen, with, the deformed beak, together with a sec ond hen which was blind in one eye, and one with a bright rose comb, that convinced the court. He won the case and the chickens were given back to him. Needless to say, that hen is now as sured a comfortable home, with noth ing to worry about" for the rest of her life. "Send culture to Hollywood I'd say to. the managers, but I'm afraid there's no us&. You don't see more than three or four moving picture 'ac tors at the concerts wc do get. "The only bright spots are homes of honest intelligent artists like Na zi Tn ova, Clara Kimball Young and others who can discuss books and music. I could name some who may not be overburdened with brains but at toast are striving to improve them selves. One of the finest and most in tellectual women in the colony Is Mabel Normand. Its a shame her name should be mentioned in connec tion with this Taylor murder. Many Undosirables. "Why don't we actors who have re spect for our art and ourselves get together and demand a clean up of the undesirables? What good would that do? You forget that some of the youngest stars in the business are among the undesirables. "They have been raised to positions for which they are not fitted. They receive enormous salaries. They haven't the brains or desire to im prove themselves and they spend their money like drunken sailors. They are trying always to buy new sensations, bored to death with Hollywood and themselves. And their actions bring opprobrium o:i ever actor in the busi ness. They make us all suffef. It isn't fair and I for one resent it." Adolph Zukor, head of the Famous Players, disapproving of the suggestion to scatter Hollywood colony, defend ed it. Zukor Defends Hollywood. "There's no more" immorality in the Hollywood colony than in the New York stock exchange," said the film magnate. "Isolated cases of scandal in Holly wood are taken and magnified. That's because the film folk are more famil iar to the public than any other class of people, j suppose disgraceful things happen in Hollywood, but they hap pen among men who are members of the New York stock exchange and they happen in other groups. "Even if we were so inclined, it would be impossible to abolish the Hollywood colony and scatter the ac tors in other sections of the country. In the first place, climatic conditions make it necessary to maintain studios there. Our company and other com panies have millions of dollars in vested there and it would mean enor mous loss to move the colony. Wher ever we moved the actors, they would be bound together in colonies. Movies Not Going to the Iogs. "Because of their peculiar closeness to the public, individual stars must watch their step, but I am not pessi mistic about the situation. The movies haven't gone to the dogs, and they -are not going to the dogs." Carl Laemm'.e, head of the Uni versal Film company, advocated "mo rality" clauses in moving picture con1 tracts to keep the stars "straight." He expressed similar views on Hollywood as Mr. Zukor. "Morality" clauses in contracts bind an actor signing with the company not to do anything that would reflect dishonor on himself or the company. New York. Feb. 7. Wage negotia tions leading up to regional confer ence's, suggested recently by Secretary Hoover, will be reviewed by the con ference committee of the managers of eastern railways, which will meet here tomorrow. Fifty-five railroads east of the Mississippi will be represented at the gathering. The roads have furnished their in dividual Wage conferences, according to John G. Walber, chairman of the information bureau of eastern rail roads, and have filed with the railroad labor board all disputes involving the shop crafts. Mr. Walber said that, in acting on Secretary Hoover's suggestion, that railroad and brotherhood representa tives confer immediately following in dividual wage adjustment meetings, the Association of Rarilway Executives adopted a resolution making participa tion optional on the part of each road. A canvass is now being made of the roads desirous of being represented at the conference with the brotherhood heads. He added the railroad managers had already replies of acceptance from the brotherhood of engineers, traiiimen and firemen, but had not yet received word from the conductors.

Gotham Unemployed Form 'No-Job Union Plan to Affiliate With Workers Who Have Jobs and Make I'nltetl States a "Nation of Workers for Workers." New York, Feb. 7. Announcing as their slogan "fight and live; work or compensation," a newly organized body of unemployed, will hold a dem onstration in the Labor temple tonight and perfect plans for the further or iranization of the jobless men of the city. The leaders have announced their intention of organizing all the unem ployed of the nation and have opened headquarters from which the work is to be carried on.

Strength and Endumocoi FREE Out of Drag-Frenzied' Hollywood Dope Parties Star Leads on New Trail Prominent Film Star Who Boasted She'd Force Taylor to Wed, Now Believed Solution of Newest Murder Mys tery of the Films- Her Story Is Pieced Together. (Copyright, 1922, by I. N. S.) (Copyright, 1922, by Chicago Evening American.) Los Angeles. Feb. 7. Out of the drag-frenzied setting of Hollywood's feverish "dope" parties, the slim, cool figure of one of, filmdom'a leading ac tresses stepped today to lead the police on a new trail in their hunt for the slayer of William Desmond Taylor, slain film director and man of mys tery. She slipped from the sordid back ground as she had left a score of times the scenes of mad revelry to make her way under the cloak of night to the home of the man who was killed. He was her lover. In Thralls of Dope Ring. One of the most noted of the screen's favorites and one of the piti ful number who have become thralls of the dope ring the police, led by new, spectacular developments, be lieve that tHe film beauty may be the assassin. Her motive, the police informants declare, was a strange infatuation for the quiet, well mannered director turned to burning rage by her jealousy of other women known to have visited the Alvarado street home, once con sidered the quarters for a recluse bachelor and now known as the abode of secret love across the swamp of scandal and gossip, revealed with Tay lor's killing that they were ready to construct their entire theory of the crime, including the time it was done. The assassins of Taylor and the woman were mildly known to Holly wood filmdom. That is, what may be called their daylight acquaintance. Hollywood did not even raise its eye brows. There had been too many women in .Taylor's life. They did not know about her early morning visits to Alvarado street. They might have wondered why she, looked upon as a queen of the de lirious revels where ether and cocaine were blended with morphine and opium, left thetse "parties" at an hour considered early in Hollywood. But they were used to strange behaviors. Boasted ShCd Wed Taylor. There was a bit of gossip when it was learned that the young woman, in a burst of drug-inspired confidence, had boasted that she intended to mar ry "Bill" Taylor. "He's mine," she said, "and he knows it." Hollywood smiled tolerantly. "There must be something about Bill Taylor," it said. On New Year's eve and far into New Year's day theadvent of the fresh, year was hailed by Hollywood with a, wild and drunken shout. Old timers hereabouts say that the celebration in Its wildness surpassed anything ever seen in these parts. Out of it have since grown twenty scandals and do mestic shipwrecks. Taylor and the woman who boasted that she would marry him, quarreled violently at the "party" they attend NORTH TOPEKA Item tor this column may bfl left as Petro's druv store, or telephone Eleanor Kimball. 3331 altar 4 e'clock.

So violently that they separated on the spot. Half crazed with the drug she had taken, the woman ran in a rage to her car and drove to her home.

These tales were verified in the half whispers that sounded in, the haunts of the drug peddlers, among whom the secrets of the stars that shine on the celluloid firmament are every day gossip. They know it as part of their infamous trade. So impressed were the authorities with the sight of the will-o-the-wisp dope peddlers remember that was a part of their trade she repented and telephoned Taylor. Turned To Man of Stone Taylor, when the woman left, seemed turned to a man of stone. At last he shook himself together, for mally bade farewell to the others of the party and stalked to his car. When he reached home, according to the I stories, the police heard from the dens i of the dope peddler, he broke down and wept. V hen daylight came he was off on one of his solitary walks into the foothills. He returned just before the woman telephoned. 'He re fnsed to go to the telephone when he learned who it was. Later, it was stated, she made several efforts at reconciliation. But Taylor was thru with her. There had been other vomen in his life. There still were. He was seen in their company in public.

That night, as they say in movie sub-titles, the film queen was again at a dope "party" morose and embittered, according to police in formation. To her came one of her consoling friends. "What a fine dumbbell you are to be crying about that fellow." she said. "Why, he's got a woman in his house right now.' "That's a lie," cried the star. "All right," said the other, "but if I wanted to, I could tell you her name." 1 Brooding Ijed to Crime. For more than an hour, according to the information given the police, the young woman who had boasted she would marry Taylor, brooded. Then, without a word to anyone, she left. The police believe it possible that this woman, with; the fumes of the drug fanning jealousy to flames, armed herself and went to the home of Taylor ready to demand his love and to kill him if he refused.
