Suffering Passengers Were Taken Oat Santa Fe Cares for Persons Left by Big Four Members to Swelter in Middle of Desert, Without Much Food and With Little Water Train (By the Associated Press. San Bernardino, Cal.,' Aug. 14. A Santa Fe relief train carrying ap proximately 125 passengers, many of whom still ,were suffering the effects of the terrific heat of the desert, ar rived in this city from Needles last night. A guard armed with repeating rifles was on the observation car all across the desert. A physician and a nurse boarded the train here, being called by rail road officials to treat J. M. Norria. 91, Los Angeles, who was overcome by the heat at Needles Saturday. William Hendrick, machinist mate, TTntted States navy, en route to San Diego, worked continuously over the sick man as the train sped on to San Bernardino. Hendrick, fatigued from three sleepless nights on the desert, was aided by women passengers who made ice packs and carried water "to the compartment where the injured man lay unconscious. "Grandma" Malissa Wooden, aged 94 years, and traveling alone, from the east to her home in Berkeley, Cal.k was smiling when the train arrived here, altho so weak she could hardly; talk. For three days "Grandma" Wooden suffered intensely from the sweltering! temperature on the desert, women passengers secured electric fans and I COPY KANSAS LAW Federal Industrial Court Act Is Being Planned. Bill May Be Issued Soon in United States Congress. State officials see renewed action toward passage of a federal industrial court act as a result of the present rail and coal strike situations. It is likely that labor court bills will be in troduced soon in both branches ot congress. Governor Allen today received a letter from Albert J. Beveredge, who recently defeated United States Sen ator Harry New in Indiana primaries, asking for copies of the. Kansas law. Beveredge Indicated that he proposed to present a similar measure in the senate next year. Several days ago Congressman Richard K. Bird of the Eighth Kansas district stated -that he would offer a bill in the national house providing for a rederal labor court. He will probably frame the measure 'for intro duction in the next tew weeks. Bird and other members of the Kansas del i I fatlon hav rtLurn5ViMhinIRton Governor Allen has for some time I urged that the Kansas act be covered i in a federal law. During the recent strike trouble the industrial world1 has given more heed to conditions in this state than in any other section of the country. The fact that Kansas has been more effective than any other state in meeting the strike problem has given the federal law supporters a big talking- point. Rcent action of the railroad broth erhoods in deserting their trains and leaving hundreds of women and chil dren passengers at desert points has made a large number or converts for the law. Governor Allen believes. He declined today to make a formal statement regarding the prospects of a federal labor court law further than to say that he expected early action. Only by a matter of a lew hours did Governor Allen's household escape di rect effects of the desertion of trains at California and Arizona desert points. Mrs. Allen and Miss Henrietta Allen were returning from their trip to Honolulu. They left Los Angeles on the last train to clear the Santa K desert country. INVESTIGATE OIL SUPPLY New Move on Part of Producers Taken I'p by Court. Governor Allen and the industrial court members are Investigating moves of oil operators tending to cur tail production and Increase prices. The governor conferred today with the court members regarding the new move in the oil industry. It is prob ably that action may be taken by the state. On the heels of reports of further coal shortages came news that the oil operators were not at all pleased I with conditions. At a conference Sat urday the operators planned to shut down new developments until prices should advance to a more satisfactory level. Many industries in Kansas are look ing to the oil fields for fuel supplies next winter. Several railroads using oil burners are also affected by the fuel oil supply. It is not improbable that the state will go Into the fuel oil situation some time this week. Governor Allen stat ed today that he would await a re port from the industrial court before taking action. FUEL FAMINE IN MISSOURI Use Oil and Wood Whenever Possible, Says Coal Commission Head. Jefferson City. Aug. 14. "It Is Im perative that all Missouri Industries east of Sedalia adopt every method of conservation possible and use oil and wood wherever possible, Hugh McIIndoe, chairman of the Missouri coal commission declared in a state ment issued today. Coal production in the western half of the state is barely sufficient to keep western Missouri railroads and Indus tries, listed as priority, supplied for daily consumption, the statement said. Priority orders were issued today, Mr. Mclndoe stated, with the federal fuel distributor for four cars of coal for Hannibal two cars to keep the by Relief Train i Into San Bernardino. attended her in the railroad hotel at Needles. ,A story of how a mother and father rought death for their 1-months-old haby- was told by Mr. and Mrs. Wil liam Hebree, of Denver. Mrs. He bree slept but a few hours in three days, working nearly all the time with her husband over the child, Robert, overcome by the heat. "Fresh milk was unobtainable, at the railroad hotel and until Saturday ws were unable to procure elsewhere any for the baby," Mrs. Hebree said. "People of the town heard of our plight and- an engineer opened his heme to us. A women's organization ersome people have human hearts secured the milk for the baby. I am sure their action saved Robert's life. The temperature in the Pullman cars was 130 degrees at one time. N.

The extra police in the park tonight have orders to arrest the first man who at tempts to "start anything," Chief Morris Leonard stated this afternoon. Echoes of the strike were heard anu evidences of the manner in which the ill feeling, repressed for many weeks, is coming to the surface in Topeka, appeared at the Brunswick pool hall Saturday night, when strikers or strike sympathizers set upon an un known man now working in the Santa Fe shops. According to the story the man told the police, one of them assaulted him, and as he tried to make a getaway thru the back door of the pool hall, on account of the large number of strike sympathizers in the building, they hurled pool balls at him, and bruised him slightly. But when the man told his Etory to the police he insisted that the men who attacked him were friends of his and he didn't want them arrested.'

He was in Toneka today for a conference with candidates but did not I attend the luncheon. Hawk managed the Morgan campaign during the ai maries.

Republicans attending the luncheon here today strongly favored an en dorsement of the industrial court law.

The new state platform is ex pected to strongly endorse the Harding and Allen administrations and worn of the Kansas delegation in Washing tore. The platform will also declare for rigid economy in public affairs without crippling necessary depart ments and institutions. Democrats Meet Here. Jonathan M. Davis of Bronson, Democrat-governorship nominee and other Bourbon state and congressional candidates.-nre in session this after noon at the Throop hotel. They are looking after i.iujh the same business which inspired the Republican meet ing. Finance is one of the big worries of the Democrats. They are bubbling over with- their biennial pre-election confidence and enthusiasm. They seemingly have ardent shouters in abundance, but a small war chest and only a limited number of volunteer workers. The matter of a state chairman is a big Democrat worry. Forrest Luther of Cimarron will not take the job again. Martin Miller of Fort Scott was offered the "Chairmanship, but de clined. Dan Callahan of Wichita was mentioned but seems top busy with banking and oil interests. This afternoon it looks as tho the Democrats will select C. J. Peterson of Topeka or Ansel Hattan of West phalia as chairman. Both men have had state headquarters experience! Urge Farmers ToVJoin. Democrat hope is built largely on the party's ability to harmonize the anti industrial court crowd and the farmers. They will seek to arouse labor's oppositioi. to the Republicans thru a fight on the labor court law. The farmers will be urged to join the labor union crowd because of the declaration that taxes are too higu. Several Republic -n gove.norship can didates tried the same plan in the re cent primaries without material suc cess. The Democrat platform will flay the Republican state and national ad n inT'rttions. Otherwise it wouldn't be a Democrat platform.

Further threats or acts airafnat the striker, their wItos or mmhra f their families will result in action "as the ocrailon demand.' No Ixt l p In Knforcement. State, county and city officials thU afternoon were asked for statenien; when the resolutions were read to them by The State Journal. Thc.r answer was a declaration that ther would be no let up in local law en- forcement or in patrolling the shop areas. The strikers' resolution Is the bold- est assertion that discrimination H displayed in enforcement of law. Finally and in most positive terms it Is formal notice to the stats and to the city that unless thre is a let Ui, the clash between the strikers and orgwnixed branches of state govern ment is coming.! 'We'll Call Bluff" MoDermott. Judge James A. McDermott w is read a section of the resolutions. "You can say that there will be no letting up in the policy and purpose of the state," said the labor court Judge. "If it Is a bluff, we will call It. We expect to enforce the law In To peka and In everytown affected by this strike. If there fs complaint against the character of men em ployed as guards, no Information to that effect has ever been sent to this -court. I can tell you right now we will not hesitate in our course to pro tect property and rights of people. "No Change In Policy" 5orwlne. Mayor Corwine was asked for s statement. "I haven't received a copy of the resolutions," he said. "But I haven't the least intention to change the city's policy in the shop district, X don't know of a bit of criticism of the char acter of men employed by the City as officers and we'don't intend to make s bit of change In our program. If any man employed as a guard by the Santa Fe or any other railroad employe overstep the law, he will he prose cuted. We don't Intend to discrimin ate between any classes of men In carrying out our policy." "Xo Change" Veale. Tinkham Veale, county attorney, said he would make no change in his program and asserted Shawnee county would not be bluffed. "If they Intend that resolution as a bluff, Shawnee county will call It." said Veale. "If that resolution Intends to make on thing certain It is that we will make our campaign for law enforcement a bit more strenuous and vigorous. Sheriff Miler Is under bond. I know he hasn t put a man In the district to patrol the shops who was not of the higheet character obtain able. We have given the strikers rquare deal. But we haven't irtvn them a free rein and don't Intend to. We are going to enforce the law. Tho Resolution.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 14, 1922 In State Politics LABOR FOR DAVIS Will Seek to Win Cause by Vot Ingr Democrat Ticket. Something1 Happened to En dorsement of Fred Knapp. UNABLE TO HOLD LABOR VOTE Kansas Trades Unionist of To' peka Into the Campaign. Democratic Nominee Is Run ning as a Sod Farmer. BT A. L. SHTLTZ. Having lost its fight in the Repub lican primaries, organized labor will seek to win its cause by voting the Democrat ticket in November. At least such portion of organized labor as can be controlled will be directed to vote for Jonathan M. Davis for governor. Something happened in the attempt to deliver the labor vote to Fred W. Knapp. The support which was ex pected to be a big asset in the indus trial centers was a millstone in the country. But the effect was worse Even tho he traveled under the stamp and seat of the state federation. Knapp was unable to corral anything resembling a solid labor vote. Fifth ra Field of Seven. The labor candidate came under the wire fifth in a field of seven candi dates including tJo women. Many of the votes which were expected to be consigned to Knapp went to Stubbs and McNeal. Stubbs' play to the rad- ical labor vote in the final days of the campaign, however, caused dis- aster out in the rural precincts where the former governor was once a. pop ular idol. When Stubbs came into the home stretch with a chance to win the governorship nomination his old farmer support was missing and he lost the fight. Most of the dopesters believe the situation was due to re fusal of the farmers to join with the railroad shop and coal strikers in en dorsement of a candidate. One of the big features of labor's attitude in the primary, tho. is the fact that its slate no longer brings terror to the candidates. T. Mor pan, the governorship nominee, is for' the Industrial court. vv. I. Lambert son is for the court law and refused to so much as bid for the radical vote aitho he was Invited to slate making caucus. He did not go to the meeting. To Davis In November. The vote which labor delivered to Its favorite candidates in the towns was promptly checkmated in returns from the country. Labor leaders themselves are trying to explain the situation to their followers and have urged union vnters to take new cour age and go to Davis in November. Two years ago Davis was the Dem ocrat nominee for governor against Governor Allen. At that time he re ceived the anti-industrial court vote. Oovemor Allen finished 'the race, tho, with 105.000 majority over Davis. The real chance "for labor to win was in the state primaries. With a heavy field its slate might have been carried thru by a well organized and deiiverable minority. Under the Kan sas primary law the voting is a free pitch in and Democrats were per mitted to enter the Republican pri maries without interference. The fact that the labor organization was unable to deliver its vote even with printed plates and wide publicity is the big matter of interest in politics. Carefully Selected Slate. So carefully did the state federation center its fire for Knapp that it made but one governorship recommen dation. Democrat candidates were not mentioned. Practically all of the voting was done in the Republican primaries. With thousands of men on strike labor was in a position to thoroly organize for the campaign. The fact that it did not control its own vote is apparently puzzling the labor leaders. Last week tne Kansas Trades Unionist of Topeka. devoted exclusively to the cause of the union labor worker, appeals to labor to be strong in the faith and vote for the Democrat nominee for governor. In an editorial it says in part: "Labor is not laying down since the recent primaries. It has ad vanced beyond the habit and is but getting its breath for action in the fall campaign. Labor failed to get Its candidate for governor across because it was misled as to the support which Mr. Knapp would draw from other sources. "But now what labor can do and will do in the November election is to vote for Jonathan Davis who has won the Democratic primaries defeat W. Y. Morgan, who has been recognized as the Allen administration candi date. Let no one tell you that the voting power of labor la negligible because of the showing Id the primaries." Davis a Sod Farmer. Davis is running as a so" farmer. But with the labor endorsement he may need additional speaking time in the rural districts. Stubbs and Knapp also ran as friends of the farm er. But the farmer vote did not en thuse over their friendship with the strikers. The course which Davis will follow in harmonizing the two con flicting interests will be one of thi Interesting features of the campaign. DR.

When a final vote shall be taken on. the pending tariff bill, it that day ever come,' the measure would be doomed to certain defeat should every senator personally and pecuniarily in terested in its passage modestly de cline to vote. Those familiar with the tariff question recognize that it is intended to give gratuities to the few at the expense of the many, and a majority, perhaps, of the senators arc numbered among these few. Some "own flocks of sheep while others own burst stock and to it goes ail down the line. It readily can be seen how log rolling becomes a necessity and collators cannot avoid voting for their own pockets if they would win the votes of other senators with pockets to f'ilL The right of any man individually to quit work is not denied. The fight of any number of men to quit work in concert few will dispute. But the right of a man or group of men who have voluntarily given up their jobs to demand at will that former rela tions with the employer be restored s one which now is in the process of settlement. Probably it will not be determined until determined by "the highest court. When the question has been settled by this tribunal we shall have fewer strikes. The paramount question in connec tion with the railway strike has be come, who owns the Job? The para mount problem, however, for the pub lic. Is not whether the railway em ployes or the managers are Justified altho It is essential that Justice be ac corded to both sides in every such dis jute but how to prevent the periodic recurrence of the threat against the economic life of the nation which has characterized the differences between railroad labor and the rai'.way man agers for a number of years. Kverv American citizen has a vital interest in the future of American railroads. This interest was expressed by con gress in the transportation act of 1920. which created the railway labor board, and the public is making its in terest felt at this tin-p by insisting that the- grievances be presented be fore the labor board for its hearing and decision and that-in the meantime the railways be kept In operation. In time, perhaps, we shall discover a means for conquering economic mal- S(l itist ments nrerlselv na wa a m nlnwtv conquering epidemics of disease which have scourged the world for thousands of years. The cause of self-government however, will not be helped if the agencies thru which it functions are defied by any class of the com munity. And, as public opinion is the most powerful force in this country. Its influence should increasingly bo felt in such disputes before they get beyond the stage of reasonably easy adjustment. The issue which it is said the Dem ocrat party proposes to stress during the campaign just beginning is that the Republican congress has not pro ceeded so rapidly with the work of reconstruction as it should have done. If reference be had to the passage of a, tariff law it looks as tno the Demo crats have a good case. The matrimonial adventures of tha McCormick family are runrlng a close race with the strikes for the com manding place In the news c the day. There can be little doubt that Sen ator Borah reflected the opinion of the country in a recent address when he warned his colleagues against any rrjgram wnicn wm increase tne Bur den of taxation. Whether or not he was correct In his interpretation of the cause of the prevailing social and economic discontent, attributing it to the Targe measure of the people's earnings now taken for the support of national, state and municipal govern ments, his declaration that "the most prolific source of mi; ery and crime is oppressive taxation" ia written every- when In the history of organised so ciety. VHis warning was spoken to his party adherents, in the interest of his party's welfare. It should be taken to heart by those who are trying; to In crease the burden of the people by Imposing" tariff taxes unprecedented In magnitude. The common atcck of the Santa Fc railroad has been advancing- in price almost continuously ever since the strike was inaugurated. This tact seems to indicate that holders of the road's securities are not greatly alarmed over the labor situation. THE BONUS PROPOSAL The voters of Kansas, at the ap proaching election in November, will be called upon to decide by their bal lots for or against a proposal to au thorize the state to issue its bonds in I the sum ot 25.000,000 for the pur pose of paying a bonus to its soldiers who served in the Great War. Advocates of the state soldiers compensation measure draw one clear line of distinction between the Kansas proposition and the national adjusted compensation bilL This difference lies in the method of raising the funds with which to pay the ex-service men. President Harding has said he would not veto the present pending bill if a source of funds were pro vided within it- It Is pointed out that this stumbling block need not obtain as an objection to the Kansas meas ure because the source of revenue is to be thru the long-tried and regular system of direct taxation on property values. According to the figures of the state tax commission, the average cost per year to the taxpayer of Kansas will be less than 39 cents per thousand dol lars of assessed property valuation, if the referendum proposition be passed The proposed measure provides that all residents of Kansas at the time of their entering the armed forces of the United States during the war with Germany, shall receive $1 a day for the time they were In service. The governor, the secretary of state and the state auditor will, under th? provisions of the bill, compose a com mission to issue bonds in the sum of not exceeding S25.000.000' to provide the funds. These bonds are to be is sued in installments at such times as are necessary to provide funds. The interest rate shall not exceed 5H per cent under the bill. It is believed by state officials that the Interest rate is likely not to be more than 4tt per cent, thus making the total cost much lower. The question is entitled to mature consideration and intelligent action by the individual citizen. The railway men who are on strike profess to believe that the roads are. engaged in an effort to smash the unions. But how can this be done when the unions are officially recog nized and upheld by the transporta tion law and the railroad labor board? WHAT DO THEY FEAR? President Harding's demand that the striking railroad shopmen return to work on the understanding with the railroad managers tnat the ques tion of restoration of seniority rights shall be left to the decision of the railroad labor board seems reasonable, but apparently it is opposed by both parties to the controversy. Regardless of this attitude on the part of those directly concerned it is the course that best serves the public interest. It is to the public interest that the authority of the railroad la bor board in its special field shall be thoroly established by law, by execu tive action and by public opinion. The president has been working steadily to this end. The Chicago News holds the opin ion that the course that will so strengthen governmental authority as to make it superior to the whims, sus picions apd petulances of railroad managers and railroad workers, and therefore will cause it to stand aa a real protection for the people -against transportation tleups. Is the best course in dealing with the shopmen's strike. The railroad managers it points out have made certain promises to the shopmen who did not strike and to the new men who have taken places deserted by strikers. But those prom- lses cannot outweigh the needs of the country- The demand of the presi dent that those needs be met by the carriers, the News contends, absolves the managers from blame If their promises are not kept. However, if the managers have as good a case as they insist that they have for their refusal to restore seniority rights to strikers they should have no special hesitation In Intrusting the matter to the decision of the railroad labor board. Seniority rights are, of course. Im portant to railroad workers. They de cide what men shall be laid off in slack times. They decide who shall have special opportunities for pro motion In the servfee. When Presi dent Jewell, leader ot the striking unions, notified the railroad labor board that his followers were no long, er In the employ of the railroads he did what he could to fix a great gulf between them and their records of railroad service. Now he wants that gulf filled up. The railroad labor board should be a competent Judge ot the matter. To it also very properly should be allotted the task of decid ing what degree of physical opposi tion by individual strikers to railroad operation makes them unworthy to re- j ceive runner employment, or trust or benefits from the railroads. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC J. HASKIN. Director, Washington, D. OL FAMOl'S HAIRDRESSER TO BE FETED. Washington, D. C, Aug. 11. A fete in honor of the" man who invented the Marcel. wave.ls to be held in Paris this fall by a host of grateful hair dressers. On this side of the water. Marcel is simply a method of curling the hair. In Paris, Marcel Is also a personality, a famous hairdresser who retired twenty-five years ago with a comfortable income. Monsieur Marcel measures up to most of the fixed standards of great ness as set forth in magazine articles on successful men He was poor and started at the bottom of the ladder. Some dav on American financial "wiz ard is going to achieve super fame by managing to start out in lire some where below the bottom of the ladder. Marcel ran true to tradition, how ever. He started out as a poor ap- Drentice in a barber shop. He further complied with American traditions by mysteriously sensing the line where success awaited him. He reasoned that there should be better prospects in the business of making women beautiful than the prosaic trade of making men appear civilized, This wa3 really a remarkable con clusion for Marcel to reach because the women's hairdressing business was slumuinjr. There was nothing start ling, nothing very monumental about coiffure styles and women stayed at home and arranged their own flowing locks. Yet the young French apprentice who was to rescue the trade from its precarious situation gazed into the fu ture .and had visions or success as a ladies' coiffeur, as he drearily ran the razor over a customer s chin. Even tually fate and his iron-pawed deter mination led the young apprentice into a Parisian hairdressing establish ment.' Hera, again, he followed out the rules frir ereatness faithfully. His first attempt at arranging a woman's hair, wherr he was 19 years old, was a total failure. The effect was so crude that the customer angrily took down her hair and rearranged it herself. Mar cel was dismissed from the shop forthwith. Tet. from this Inauspicious debut, or rather because of it. the young apprentice rose to the heights of his art. It would take too long to point out how Marcel developed almost all the points of the great American business hero. It is sufficient to say that "he a noble example of the power of ob servation, perseverance, patience, in itiative, diplomacy and modesty. His Mot Ik-r His Inspiration. He was 20 years old. and 'engaged in hairdressing in Paris, when he no ticed the graceful wave of his moth er's hair. He studied it admiringly and thought with a sigh of the straight haired women- wno came Into the shop to be made beautiful. The methodr; of curling hair then were tiresome and resulted often, in friz-. zled looking mops. Strands of hair were braided or rolled in papers and then, squeezed into kinks between the prongs of a curling iron. Or else strands of hair were wrapped around and around a hot iron. Marcel tried to copy the rolling curves of his mother's hair with an iron. He had little success at first, but as he practised he worked out a method, and deftness and precision n using the irons came to him. He had the idea that waves could he placed successfully only in soft nurry hair. He tried waving such hair occasionally when he was asked to arrange a coiffure. Then a straight haired woman who had seen one of these curly coiffures, came into his shop and demanded waves. Marcel j oemurrea. rne oy s nair was stirt; it was not the suitable type. But the customer had come determined to have waves. Finally Marcel shifted all responsibility and took up his irons. Later the customer sailed out triumphant in achieving her ambition for curls, and Marcel decided that he had made an important discovery. After that he curled all comers, and the straighter the hair the more start ling the transformation. When his wave began to be fashion able in Paris, about 35 years ago. Mar cel's shop, was so packed with cus tomers that special prices were offered for immediate service. Then anxious women panic stricken at the thought of facing a straight-haired evening, began to bid for the next turn at the waving irons. When important social functions were pending, bids for a real Marcel wave, quick, rose to $100. Marcel taught his method to his as sistants, wore his own hair and beard au naturel, and finally retired. Now. he Is 70 years old and Paris Is going to cerebrate in his honor. He gave the hair-dressing business a boost when it was in a slump and the business has never fallen back into that depression. No woman, we understand, can wave hesv own hair to look like a profes sional job. Tet waves are admired. So the hairdressers smile and thank heaven for Monsieur Marcel and his- epoch making invention. A Nine Day Fete. Plans to make Marcel's fete a nota ble event are already well under way. The celebration is to last nine days in October. There are to be exhibitions ot all the- implements, styles, and methods known to modern hairdress ers. An elaborate collection of wax figures will show the history of coif fures. The Parisian public will be shown the latest methods for achiev ing a permanent wave and changing the color of one's hair. Experts in turning out complicated coiffures will engage in exciting contests. Marcel will be dined and his work described and lauded. The climax in the orgy of waves will be a ball with mannequins on display and the wo men present waved according to the method invented by the guest of honor. The invention of Marcel is a simple looking affair. When skillfully done his wave is supposed to resemble the natural ripple in curly hair. It might seem odd that with curling irons of various sorts in use no one had imi tated waves before Marcel's time. In reality the wave is more subtle than it appears. Marcel spent several years experimenting and practicing before he was able to produce a wave that, was satisfactory to him. A less determined or devoted hairdresser would probably have given up the at tempt when the first waves looked worse than no waves at all. Marcel had to determine by endless experiment the best way to hold the irons, how to twist them, and how to space the curl. The dexterity with which the wave is manufactured, even if all the rules are followed, is an other important factor. There are waves and waves, as a look around any ballroom will show. Marcel spent fifteen years on his invention before he laid Paris at his feet, and In those years of practice with, little encour agement he acquired the skill -that made his wave and himself famous. In only one point has Marcel fallen short of the standards of greatness in business. Considering his assets and his reputation the fortune he amassed would leave the successful business man of this country flabbergasted. Monsieur Marcel retired to his cha teau with considerably less than a million dollars about 3200,000 to be more exact. To be sure he retired when he was only middle-aged. But to work so long and so hard, and then when suc cess came to retire calmly with less than a million! The longer you think of it the more certain you become that Marcel is not eligible to smoke big black cigars with our large and select group of financial wizards and big business men. His neglecting this point is hard for an American to un derstand. It can only be explained on two grounds: Monsieur Marcel is French, and he was not brought, up on the American success magazines. A Stenographer's Romance BY JANE PHELPS 3IISS McBRTDE PLACES NELL-IE. Chapter 25 Altho it was Saturday Nellie in sisted upon going to see Miss McBride about a position. "I don't want to fose any time, if I did hold up that old crook for my wages and a reference," she told Cora who wanted her to rest until Monday. a This was your first position?" Miss McBride asked, already most kindly disposed toward Nellie because of what Gladys Doran had told her the more so after seeing the girl in person. "Yes, my first office position," Nellie answered, a roguish twinkle in her eyea. "What did you do before that?" "Slung hash for Miss Carter at Hud son Corners, and learned to typewrite between times." "Well, I don't think Miss Carter's reference would help you," Miss Mc Bride replied with a laugh. "But this reference is very satisfactoryvery." Nellie wondered what she would say if she knew she had written it herself, then compelled Mr. Robinson to sign it. She was tempted to tell her. Just to see how it would look, but restrained herself. "It's true, every word of it!" she said to herself as Miss McBride bent over her books. "I didn't say a word that wasn t true. The old skinflint didn't pay me enough not for what I could do. And I did everything he gave me all right." Miss McBride interrupted her mus ings: "I have a position for a girl I won der if you could fill it? I have sup plied this firm for years. They are very particular. The place isn't par ticularly easy but they are very kind. very fair. But it isn't just an ordinary stenographer they want. A girl must really serve as more of a secretary to the elder Mr. Fallon, and must, have initiative as well as knowing the regu lar routine being able to dohat well." "I'm not looking for an easy job!' Nellie thought of her work at Mr. Rob inson's. "These easy jobs don't pay. They think it they let you go early and come late you should work for less. when the extra time ain't isn't much good to you." v- "Yes, I know! The agent knit ner brows. Fallon Son were one of her best customers. They kept several girls busy, were most particular, and she had a great pride in serving them. This pretty young thing looking so wistfully at her was not at all the type she had in her mind for the place; but no one had as yet applied that sne though would do at all, and Nellie's reference was certainly all one could ask for. Then Gladys Doran had told her she was quick and clever. "I'll let you try!" she finally said, "unless when they see you, they think you are too young." "Oh. I'll try so hard!" Nellie ex claimed. "They pay well," Miss McBride went on. "I don't know what they will give you to start, but if you fill the place it will mean is or 2U, wim a chance for more." Nellie gasped! As much as Cora was getting. Oh. how she would work. "You must dress neatly, but in that office the girls do not wear peek-a-boo waists, nor bright colors. What you have on is very suitable a dark dress with dainty collars and, cuffs, shoes cared for, a generally neat ap pearance. Don't look so conscious. I always advise my girls about their dress. You may not realize it, but .it often helps a girl to get on. Take two girls in an office who are equally smart and who do their work well. If there is a chance for advancement I have noticed it is the more quietly dressed, the dainty girl, who is pre ferred." "That's just the way Cora talks." "Miss Cora is a very unusual girl, has splendid principles. You are -very fortunate to be with her and Gladys. How doesCora like her position?" "Very much. She was saying only the other night how grateful she was to you." "Well, so you want to try this place I told you of?" "Indeed, I do! "Take this card to them at 9 o'clock Monday morning. Their address is on the other side. If you cannot do their work, or you find it too hard, come back. I'll find something for you." "Thank you, but I shan't come back!" Nellie said with decision. She didn't hear Miss McBride say as she hurried out: "I don't believe she will. But she's too pretty, altogether too pretty. She'll e safe there but Miss Mc Brfde bent over her desk frowning.

Harold Raymond had the reputa tion in Hillsborough of being a local Machiavelli a very deep young man, the people called him who attained his ends by diplomatic ways and wiles. He called peristently at the house of the Widow Halstead and was seen often in company with the widow's pretty daughter, Catherine. He fre quently took along Kate's elder sister, Martha, on their outings and treated her with much deference at all times. For that was the regular thing to do when one was in love with Kate. Ev erybody knew that the matrimonial key, as far as the younger sister was concerned, was in the hands of the more austere and plainer elder daugh ter of the house of Halstead. t Kate was a pretty, fiuffy little thing with no end of admirers and always ready for a good time, while Martha, like her scriptural namesake, was careful and troubled about many things. And that was of necessity, for Martha was really the head of the family, tho the Widow Halstead posed as such with much ostentation. How ever, it was a pose only. Martha man aged things among other things managed to make both ends meet in a small family income. Mrs. Halstead "was a great stickler for the proprieties, and strong in what she called her "principles," among the most cherished of which was the doc trine that the younger daughter should not be married before the elder. Harold Raymond was such a "deep one" that there were more than a few who prophesied that he would suc ceed where many before him had failed. As to Kate's feelings in the matter there could be little doubt on that score. The pretty manner in which she blushed and looked down when rallied about the marked atten tion Harold was paying her was de lightfu' to see. At first Martha took her pic tures rather sadly in the com pany of Kate and Harold. After a while Martha became un wontedly cheerful, and entered with actual gayety into the companion ship of Kate and Harold; gave up her custom of watching them in tently when they were talking to gether as if she were trying to de cide whether they really loved one another or not seemed to have de cided the point. And at the same time Harold, the diplomat, executed what all Hillsborough regarded as a master stroke of strategy. A college friend of his, Cyril Thornton, having just been graduated from a medical school, came to Hillsborough to "hang out his shingle" and become a "rising young doctor," just as Harold had started in as a "rising young lawyer." And the very first thing Harold did was to introduce the doctor to tho Halstead girls, and thereafter what had been an insep-1 arable trio became an inseparable quartet. j Martha received this accession to their little coterie'vwith such evident pleasure that the gossips, male and i female, were seen saying: "Deep fellow, Raymond he has got the doctor and Martha hooked and now has plain sailing with Kate." No, not all the gossips said this. There were wise ones who replied: "Bosh! Martha Halstead is a predestined old maid. She'll never marry. The doc tor is trying to cut out the lawyer and the doctor has got on the right- side of Martha. It is easy enough to see that she favors the medicine man more than the man of law." It was a fact that when the four were out in the doctor's car Mar tha somehow seemed always to man age to sit with Thornton. But what could you prove by that? Did it not leave Harold and Kate in a more ad vantageous position" for love-making? Would she do this if she had selected Thornton as her sister's husband? Things were going along very agree ably Tn this way, when Mrs. Halstead took a hand, and in secret conference with her elder daughter said majesti cally: "Martha, I have noticed that that young lawyer, Raymond, has been coming here quite often of late" considering that it was about six months since Harold had first begun calling at the house, Mrs. Halstead's discovery was not so very astonishing after all. "I presume that he- is be ginning to present himself 'in the guise of a suitor for the hand of your sister, Catherine. Now you know my prin ciples. I want you to speak to him and tell him that it cannot be. I, my self, am really not in a state of health which would permit of my stating the case to the young man. It might be disagreeable, and my nerves, as you know, will not stand anything of a disagreeable nature. "But, mother," remonstrated Mar tha, "there is another young man who calls here, too Dr. Thornton. Shall I speak to both of them?" "Dr. Thornton," replied Mrs. Hal stead. "is another matter entirely. His principal reason for calling here is the interest he takes in my case. It is a most interesting one. He told me so himself. He has been especially at tentive to me and when I hinted at some pecuniary remuneration for his excellent professional advice he assured me that he knowledge he ac quired from a study of my symptoms and he was pleased to add the pleasure of my conversation more than repaid him. No; we will elim inate Dr. Thornton from the discus sion. You will speak to) Mr.x Ray mond." "But, mother," protested Martha, "would it not seem rather indelicate my unmarried state, as I take it. being the reason for rejecting Mr. Thorn ton's suit for Kate would it not ap pear rather indelicate in me to state your 'principles' in the matter to Mr. Raymond?" "Not at all." replied Mrs. Halstead. "You will speak as from me. There, there don't argue the matter any more. Did any mother ever have so much trouble with her daughters as. I have?" And then, pathetically, "I wouldn't have if you would only get a beau of your own." "Oh, mother!" cried Martha, blush ing. "I've got one!" and ran from the room, leaving Mrs. Halstead dumb with amazement. That evening when Harold called Martha received him alone, and seating herself beside him on the sofa said calmly, even frigidly, "Mr. Raymond I have a communica tion for you from my mother. She bids me tell you that it is against her principles that the younger daughter marry before the elder. Therefore, as I am still unmarried, and likely to re- i main so, you can't have Kate." "But but," stammered Harold. "I say. there's some mistake. It isn't Kate I want. I want you." "You dear boy." replied Martha, as her hand stele into his. "You dear j dilatory boy. Why didn't you say bo before? Kate and I have known all along and she has been waiting so j 'T"-atiently to accept Dr. Thornton. I .Copyright, 1 S 2 2, by Med u re News paper Syndicate.)

But tho this merciless speeding' craze Like a flood is menacing tbe land. Leaving disaster in its wake And snuffing out lives on ev'ry hand, Tet micbty crowds cheer and applaud When man gambols with death any day, With neTer a thought of consequence. Or the grim toll he's likely to pay. Lest we forpet that reckless speed May plunge a nation into ploom. Remember how the world was shocked At the Titanic's awful doom; Her frightful speed she would not slacken E'en tho the cruel ice-berg frowned. So neath the wave her huge form wink, And hundreds of helpless passengers drowned. And of late years. It's appalling. The sacrifice of life each sear To the fearsome speeding autos Whose drivers seem devoid of fear! And indeed there is no safety On the streets of city or town. For ii n I cms one's always watching. He's quite liable to be run down. If public sentiment would awake And frown upon this craze for speed. It could stop such sen eel ess folly. And save a world of grief indeed; And what a blessing It would be To this old world these strenuous days. If life, no more wns sacrificed -To this lamentable speding'crasie. Mra. Huldah K. Forsdick. Dorothy Dix Talks BY IMIKOTHT DIX W7t's uigacjt raid IVosnaai Wrist. Over-Tender Parents 1. It is a natural thing that parents shduld wish to protect their children' against tne hardships of life, but they make a mistake when they try to ac complish this by over-tenderness. For parental love can only hedge in our childhood. When we come to manhood and Tomanhood we must not only stand alone, but we face a world that nothing can soften for us, and in which there is no place for weaklings, and mama's pets. Then we survive or perish; we go down into the gutter or climb to the top of the ladder, according to the strength that has been bred in us, and-our ability to fight and to endure. This is what makes it so cruel for fathers and mothers to make their children soft thru their misguided af fection. It sends the youngsters forth untrained, unprepared to cope with even the ordinary difficulties of every day existence. It ttfrns their mole hills of trials into insurmountable mountains of tribulation. It converts trifles into tragedies, and so the par ents' love, that was meant to bless, be comes a curse as black as malice it self could have devised. Not long ago I was witness to 'a pathetic and poignant illustration of the unwisdom of this over-tender mother love. In a far "country I was staying at a hotel at which there was a young bride who was going thru such agonies of homesickness that it prostrated her. in body and soul, and made her husband utterly miserable, for it is no cheering thing for a man to come home at night to a wife who is sodden with tears, and breaking her heart for those she has left behind her.- In this case the husband was .a splendid young fellow, with a. brilliant future before him if he stayed ten or fifteen years in foreign parts. His wife loved him. She was ambitious for. him, and wanted him to succeed, but she was a spoiled child and did not know how to meet the conditions that confronted her. She told me that until she started on this Journey half around the world she had never slept a night out of her mother's room, or been separated from her -mother a single day. Her mother could not bear to be parted from her, so she had never been sent off to school, or allowed to make a visit without mother being along, and when she was taken away from mother she was utterly lost. She couldn't eat anything but mother's cooking. She thought everything wrorig Aatf -was- different from mother's point of view. She had al ways appealed to mother for advice, and she had no courage of her own opinions. Inasmuch ,as every girl is liable to marry and have to go where her hus band's fortunes call him,, how wrong a thing it is for a mother to tie her daughters to her apron strings, and make them utterly dependent upon her instead o teaching them to rely on themselves. For this young wo man's case is not alone. There are thousands like it, tragedies that might be avoided if their mothers had only had the courage to wean them, and prepare them in time for the inevita ble separation.

Am I too young to go in company yet? Should I permit him to bring me home if he does not take me to parties? Should I allow another boy to take me around even if the former boy is Jealous of me? LONESOME KAY. You are very much too young to go to dances alone and to keep com pany with boys. Unless you are care, ful you will cheapen your good name and people will say that your reputa tion is not any too good. A girl cannot be too careful of the friends she chooses and therefore 1 Would not advise you to think seri ously of the boy of questionable repu tation who goes with a girl of bad reputation. If you were seen much with him your name would soon be linked with the name of the other girL AJ yet yoa are too young to go with any boys. Jealousy on the part of the boy you like makes no difference, however. He was no claim on you. ON SECOND THOUGHT BY JAY E. HOUSE, (rrora PblladelpMa Public Ledgtr.) Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree. Saratoga, Aug. T. This country is full of tired, harass-ed-looking men and women upon whose countenances resignation is in delibly impressed. They are the peo ple who heard, ten years or so ago, that going about in a motorcar was a grand way to see the country. They got in last night shortly after 8 o'clock too late to get into the dining room of the American-plan hotel for din ner. They were up and away at 6:SU o'clock this morning. Otherwise they would have been unable to get into Kankakee or Cohoes or" Alliance by nightfull. Even so, the dining room probably was closed when they got there. A lady in the hotel at Kingston this morning spoke feelingly and not without heat concerning the Joys of motoring. She was a lovely lady and in no way fatiguing to gaze upon. She wore a pearl necklace and was literal ly incrusted with diamonds. She said they'd been out seven days and it had "rained every damn day." Luckily they were on their way home to New York., only seventy-ix miles distant She and Adelaide had talked back and forth. "She asked Adelaide where we were from. Adelaide told her. "I was In Germantown once," she said, "and that was enough for me." There are those who would have construed that remark as uncomplimentary to Germantown, specifically speaking, and to Philadelphia In a general way. I got no such reaction from it. As I construed it. having been in German town, she found it so delightful that She had no desire to explore further, or farther whichever it is. Life breaks about fifty-fifty. Motor ing is about 75-25, with the odds against the player. "There Is," as Samuel E. Merwin has aptly re .niarked. "always something." We have had no trouble at all not as a motorist counts trouble. But In Stroudsburg on Saturday night I took a foci notion to have the car washed. I should have known better; I have had the car washed before. The colored gentleman in the garage as sured me I could have the car at 9 o'clock, which was the hour I had selected to get away. Adelaide always plans to start at 7 o'clock, but we never really get away until 9, which is the hour I prefer. I think the colored gentleman meant well. I think he began washing the car right after breakfast. But he didn't finish until a quarter to 12, and it was noon when we drove out of town. We drove into Kingston early without further inci dent and got into the hotel before the dining room closed. But this morning it was raining hard, and it was 11 o'clock before we were on the way to Albany. It rained all the way, but, metaphorically speaking, there wasn't a cloud in the sky. I was for the moment in a happy mood and "kidded" gayly with the elderly gen tleman in the automobile bureau who routed us thru the Adirondacks. I told him I was a leisurely driver .and cared to go ,no further than Lake George today. And so, laughing light ly and without a care in the world, I stepped on the accelerator and dis covered that the battery was dead. It had passed out without a sign, leaving no word to its friends. The mechanic whom I finally persuaded to listen' "to reason thought it would take two hours. But I give him creftlt. He handed me back thirty-six minutes in change, and at 6 o'clock we drove into Saratoga in a pouring rain. It was deemed au fait to furbish up a bit for dinner. When I essayed to dress I dis covered I had failed to pack either hosiery or. braces. Naturally, ybu will wish to know how -1 managed It. I really don't care to say But motoring is like that. Mostly, those who motor talk of scenery. Probably those who write of motoring would write-of scenery if they saw any. But no man who tools a car over the country roads sees any scenery. All he sees is rough coasting ahead and a flock of cockroaches bearing down upon him from the dis tance. He knows if he doesn't shove the nose of his ..car straight at the foremost every cockroach in the bunch will drive him into the ditch. Adelaide has been doing a delight ful monologue touching upon the re spective beauty of the scenery along the upper Delaware and that along the Hudson. She gives it to the upper Delaware and holds that, considered purely as a picture, the Delaware from Plumleighville to Easton equals. If it does not surpass, the valley of "Music Is Selections You Want NEW DANCE 1913 Nobody Lied Fox Trot Virginians 75c The Yankee Doodle Bines. 1S012 Syncopste Medley Fox Trot Club Koynl Orch. 75c Little Thoughts Fox Trot... lieDSOU Orcu. 1H010 Soothing Fox Trot All Star Trio 75c Klght--Fox Trot.- Club Snral Orch. 1 HOOT Moon KWer Waltz..

Out of the tail of one eye I t got a few casual glimpses of the upper j Hudson today, and on Sunday, by looking hurriedly over my left shoulder, I had a cursory view of the owners of the Hon. Gifford Flnchot's residence at Milford. However, I have had one hearten ing and never-to-be-forgotten experi ence. "I don't know when I have en joyed anything so much as the barber shop in Kingston. I don't know when I have met such congenial spirits. I knew there was something unusual about the place when I went in. The first thing I saw was a sign over the cigar and notion counter in front. It read: "These eoods are for sale; if you don't believe it, try to buy some ot them." A barber shop with such a sign it bound to have atmosphere. Later I was to discover that the elder ly salesman behind the counter had run a variety theater in New York in the days when variety was variety. The barber on the third chair had been a so ng-and -dance man and a top-line performer. The barber on the front chair had shaved and valet- ed both in the heyday of their pros perity. The former song-and-aance artist went back further than "Little Annie Rooney," but the old gentleman up front had memories of "Sweet Belle Mahone" and "Sweet Jennie, the Flower of Klldare." At the end of half an hour, by which time the rain had ceased and I was compelled to de parti everybody was saying, "They don't write things like, that nowa days," "Nobody can do that sort of stuff any more." We are domiciled for the night in one of the famous old caravansaries of Saratoga. All I can see is an old fashioned hotel which makes me think i of the whatnot in grandmother's sit ting room and a crowd of typical raee I track followers fair women and fat men. But Adelaide has visions of grand dames in crinoline, horses and j carriages, velvet carpets, gas in the j chandelier and other ghosts of the I Victorian era. LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK BY LED PAPE.

XL The value of every foot of Topeka real estate, Icnluding suburban property, construction work, wholesale and retail business generally, will be greatly increased by the opening of a good-sized oil field at Burlingame. The finding of gusher production, as geologists predict, following the develop ment now in progress, will mean a business stimulus of a permanent character for Topeka, reaching into every avenue, that can hardly be overestimated. Every business man in Topeka is invited to give serious consideration to the above assertion. If it appeals to you as having merit, you are urged to lend your active co-operation in fostering our efforts to develop the field. Ours is not a promotion proposition in any sense of the word. We hae no stocks, bonds or securities of any kind, in our Company, to offer. We have outlined a great big, comprehensive development campaign, a task which, because of the immense size of the structure, calls for the drilling of many wells at one time. Our well number one is nearly 1400 feet deep. It is going down in record time. The building of the rigs for wells number 2 and 3, will be started at once. The drilling of four deep wells at four points on the structure, costing between $100,000 and $125,000, depending upon the depths drilled to, could, and no doubt would, if big production is had, mean many times more to Topeka business than 20 million dollars expended in building and construction work, a fact worth your consideration and attention. We are receiving a rapidly increasing number of supporters daily from Topeka's most conservative business mem WE NEED UNANIMOUS CO-OPERATION. A phone call will take but a few moments of your time. Call us up and let us give you some of the details of our plana. Triasngle Oil OoBinpaoiy COULDN'T HOLD THE LEAD Solons Were Xosed Out In Saturday's Game, S to S. Independence, Kan., Aug, 14.

6 THE TOPEKA DA TLY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 14, 1922 CONEYS IN COURT DlTorce Case Promises to Drag Thru Two Days. Old Soldier and Wife Fall of Household Grievances. i SHE DIDN'T LIKE HIS ROOMS And He Says She Asked Him Continually for Money. Memories of First Wife Shadowed Home, Is Charge. The suit for divorce, of Patrick H. V Coney, local attorney, against his wile, Mrs. Mabelle L. Coney, came to trial today In the Shawnee county district court before Judge George H. Whit- comb. The case will probably drag Us 'length thru this afternoon and part of tomorrow. Arguments and the pre- sentation of evidence, which Included the reading of letters from both parties, took up the time of the court today. In his petition. Coney alleges gross neglect of duty. In that his wife had Jeft the home which he provided for her, and that In addition, she was continually asking him for money, when he had previously Informed her that he was a poor man, ana naa no (.jnoncy. His petition asserted that she repeatedly demanded that he build a new house for her, when ne naa maae it plain that it was out of the question. Didn't Like His Rooms. In the answer and counter petition filed before the trial by the defend ant's attorneys, the statement was made that the quarters to which Coney took his bride after their mar riage In Chicago September 10, 1921, an apartment over a business building at S16 Kansas avenue, were cheerless and unhomelike, and that he refused to make any changes or improvements in' the place, or to permit his wife to make any such changes. Counsel for Mrs. Coney, who is the widow of Fennimore P. Cochran, former Kansas attorney, of Cotton wood Falls, followed the same line of argument In the hearing today which had been set forth In the counter petition. The shadow of the first Mrs. Coney, deceased some years ago, stood over the household from the day the second wife entered It, the defendant's attor. nays declared today. Things which had been tolerated by his first wife, Captain Coney declined to alter or bet ter at the request of his second wife, the attorneys declared in court. Hang Paintings in Kitchen. The walls of the flat in which the Ceneye lived are decorated with cheap chromos and prints of Civil war he roes, battle scenes, and army comrades of the captain. The counter petition asserts that when the second Mrs. Coney asked leave to charge some of them for oil paintings and other ob Jets d art in her possession, the cap tain peremptorily refused that per mission, and Rdvised her to hang her oil paintings in the kitchen. 'No single thing could be changed about the house, to the taste of the second wife, and the first wife was eternally held up to the second as a model of housewifely Industry and af fection, according to the argument of -the 'I'ttunaet for the defense. N The attorneys charged that Cap tain Coney has been "crabbed, irrita- ble, parsimonious and unreasonable." V On the other hand, the case brought I out charges that Mrs. Coney then t Mrs. Cochran, being homeless and nearly penniless had "entrapped by the artifices of love." the captain into 5 matrimony full well knowing his fi- V nancial condition and the living condl tions with which he surrounded him aelf. Sj Disorderly Flat Near, f. .The charge was made that immedi Pately adjoining the Coney apartment, f an I separated from the stairway to t the Coney apartments only by a thin wall, was an apartment which served J as a resort for disorderly persons and to which they frequently re. t sorted for the purpose of drinking 3 liquor and other illegal and Immoral i practices. 5 ?The counter petition asserted that such persons frequently became con f fused, and going into the Coney apart- ments at night, sometimes in the ab f sence of Captain Coney, would de j mand to be served with liquor. The counter petition declares that 9 Captain Coney. Instead of being so fi- nancially embarrassed as he has 5 claimed to his wife, is really worth S Borne $100,000, part of it in Benton 8 county. Mo., farm land, and the rest 3 in real estate and town lots, in places T unknown to his wife. v Had Secret Agreement. A secret pre-nuptial agreement, signed by Mrs. Coney and renouncing JaU her title- to any portion of her hus band's possessions, played a large part jj In the case. She was persuaded to sign this agreement without under- standing it. and under false pretences made by her husband, her attorneys declared. gj An incident heavily stressed by the i attorneys for the defense is that im S mediately after the marriage of the pair, they took a trip to a national j encampment of the G. A. R., and that 1, Mrs. Coney was compelled, according to her statement, to travel there upon the unused portion of a railroad ticket issued to a California woman, widow Jo( a Civil War soldier, and to forge in9 name oi (ne oiner woman 10 in ;j ticket in order that it might be vall dated for the return trip.

Some of these people openly boast that they are carrying arraa and are aching to use them on the strikera. These eondltiona are becoming intoler able, and the attempted crime on an eight-year-old child, of one of the shopmen, by one of these thtigs. and the reluctant man ner Jo which It waa handled by County Attorney Veale. haTe convinced us that it la more tnan useless, to iook inr nonenc protection from the duly authorized peace officers. we know onr lives, the honor or our wires and daughters are in danger, and we therefore declare that should any more threats, or attemnts at violence, he made against the strikers, their wires and daugh ters, snch action will be takeu as the oc casion demands. We farther declare, that the people who placed these thnirs in a po sition of authority, should and will be held equally responsible.

Miss aud McVey, Mr. wniiam Burns and Mr. Evan Brown, Kansas City, Mo. Golf has been often diagnosed as a malignant, contagious disease. And there have been many prescriptions from the laity for its cure. There is no record of any of them having worked, but a new one has been of fered to a. Topeka golfer, which is here passed on for the beenfit of the sufferers from the malady who would rain De normal again. One of the most severe cases of golfltis in Topeka lives in a second floor apartment, with a front porch well above the street leVel. On the first floor his landlord and landlady live, and they particularly the latter take a deep interest in the golfer's family affairs. On a certain afternoon not long since, said golfer purchased a new- club which was guaranteed to drive 'em at least two mjles, and never to produce a He in the rough. Circum stances which were of the sternest forbade that he take the club to the links that evening for a tryout, and he had a few moments to spare when he arrived at the flat. So he took the precious darling weapon out on the second story porch, and commenced to swing it at an imaginary golf ball. There -was a spring and a verve to the club such as he had never ex perienced in another, and for pure joy ne commenced to drive hypothet ical balls down an Imaginary fairway, never less than 275 yards at a shot- He swung again and again. And the more he swung, the more ardent was his delight. The hiss and whine f the club as It keened thru the air was like the noise of a whip. He put more and more force into the swings. He played eighteen holes of imaginary golf on that front porch in five minutes. Tfme and actuality faded away. He didn't see the porch or trie street. He didn't hear the traffic which clattered along the street, nor the uneasy movements on the porch below him, where his landlady sat. To his consciousness nothing pre sented itself but close-clipped fairway, enticing greens, and the song the club was making in the ozone. "Mister Blank! Mister Blank!!" his landlady called from below, and brought him back to prosaic reality. "Have you ever tried taking a bis drink of cold water for 'em? It'll cure "em sure?" "Cure what?" he demanded. "Cure nothing! I've tried for six years to cure myself of "this. .Whatdaymean, cure "em?" "Why. cure that awful spell of hic coughs, of course,' the answer floated up from below.

Oser Stables Numbered With Seven Switzerland Wonders American Tourists Have the Souvenir Urge When Visiting Mathilde's Intended's Home Town Ask to See Favorite Horses Zurich, Aug. 14. The stables for merly owned by Maj. Max Oser. mid dle aged suitor of Miss Mathilda Mc Cormlck, 17-year-old granddaughter of John D. Rockefeller, vies in inter est today with historic William Tell's rock, especially on the part of Amer ican tourists. The "lion of Lucerne" and the "horse that Mathilde rode while Major Oser was courting her," are two of the most stared at animals in Alpland. Col. Haeglcr, purchaser of Major Oser's riding academy, told Interna tional News Service that women tour ists seemed to be rnre interested in the romantic attachment between Ma thilde and Major Oser than the glor ious scenery of the Alps. "Every day American tourists, most ly women, come to the academy and "timidly ask to see the favorite horses that Major Oser and Miss McCormick rode," said Col. Haegler. "They stare for a long time, even at the empty stalls. They psk u thousand questions, such as 'was he very handsome?' and "won't you please take us over the favorite route that Miss McCormlck followed when riding?' All want souvenirs. One American girl even asked if I had one of Major Oser's finger prints?" The doings of the McCormick fam ily are much discussed in all circles. The men are copying Major Oser's style of riding dress it may be with the faint hope on the part of bachelors of attracting a young American heir ess.

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and en tirely greaseless), is much better than anything else you can use for sham pooing, as this can t possibly injure the hair. Simply put two or three tablespoon fuls of Mulsified in a cup or glass with a little warm water, then moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp thoroly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dandruff and excess oil. The hair dries quickly end evenly, and it leaves It fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. Tou can (ret Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last everyone In the family for months. Be sure your druggist gives you Mul sified. Adv. (By The Associated Press.) Ch:cago, August 14. How Pullman cars get their names is a question that frequently has been asked. The answer is revealed in the August issue of the Pullman News. "One good name suggests anothar," that publication says in explaining that while many cars have been named in definite plan, representing a certain type of car, others were bap- t.xed in "sequential fashion. "The person naming a car for Charles Dickens, for instance," the publication continues, "had his mind stirred by Dickens.an memories, as proven by co-relative names as Pick wick, Dodson, Knickerbocker, Icha- bod, Tarrytown, Stuyvesant and Man hattan. Rudyard Kipling, Mandalay and Simla certainly are linked to gether. Then there is Stevenson, ocotland, Ballantrae and Samoa. "Some persons evidently favored Sir W aiter Scott, for there are cars named for Ivanhoe, Rowena, Rebecca, Cedric, Rotherwood, Athelstan, Ash by. Talisman, Saladm and Peveril. "Milesians wil'. recognize the sequence in Ireland. Emerald. K.l- kenny, Killarney, Kildate, Galway, Clarke, Limerick and Shannon. With Napoleon as a starter. Waterloo and Wellington were obvious and also Josephine. Jena, Marengo and Helena. When one thinks of Columbus the trend of thought runs to Isabella. San Salvador and Santa Maria. Kitchener brought out Khartoum, Soudan, .cgypt ana .Kneaive. "Visions of the days of the knights of the round table evolved Arthur, juinevere, -Lancelot. Shallott, Laun ral, Gawa.ne, Merlin, Wizard. To titillate the palates of those who re gret the passage of the eighteenth amendment there are Bourbon, Rye- i gate, lioraon, Manhattan, Moselle, tiurgunay. Tokay. Yvette. Cohasset. Scotland and Bacchante. But there is aiso Aqua and Temperance. A large number of nersons nl places coupled in history have their names emDiazoned in Pullman letter ing, such as Ruth and Naomi, Venus and Adonis. Dewey and Manila. Cad mus ana J-.vi ropa.
