The Aggies entered the game hope ful but not over-confident of victory. Coach Eachman has an unusually strong eleven this season. The strength of his team was demonstrat ed in the overwhelming defeat admin istered Washburn college and in the tie game played with Oklahoma. K. U. also beat Washburn, using a second-string eleven most of the time. A periect day is on hand for what promises to be the greatest football c ash n the history of the Manhattan school. The day looks more perfect, from an Aggie standpoint, with only Axline out of the Aggie lineup for the biitt'e. Several Aggie etars are on the si"k list but they are to be marked for du'.y today.

I Work will begin this fall or not later than next spring on Topeka's new $300,000 theater to be built by L. M. and Roy Crawford and by.L. M. Miller of Wichita, it was an nounced today by the Crawfords. The site will be selected in a few days. The Crawfords own or have option on several Kansas avenue loca tions but no action has been taken toward the settlement until a confer ence can be held with Miller. "We prefer a Kansas avenue loca tion," Roy Crawford said today. "But it may be necessary to extend to a side street. Under no circumstances will a theater be built west of Jack son or east of Quincy streets." The Crawfords are elated at the prospect of bringing the Miller inter ests of Wichita into the Topeka fields. "I never have seen better appointed and better managed theaters than the Miller houses," Roy Crawford said to day. "Nothing in the country is bet ter." The new theater will be built pri marily for motion pictures, altho it will have a stage larger than in any other theater in Topeka. It will have a seating capacity of 1,500 persons. Architects will be working on the plans in a few days. MINERS OPPOSED TO KLAN Members Can't Join That or Auy Other Radical Organization. Pittsburg, Kan, Oct. 28.

Facta Ministry Forced Out by Threats of FascistL King Emmanuel Hurries to Borne to Meet Leaders. (By the AMoclsted Pre".) Rome, Oct. 28. The cabinet coun cil has been in session since midnight in order to receive reports from the provinces where the Fasclsti move ment has taken a subversive direction and to adopt necessary measures to meet the situation. The cabinet decided first to issue a proclamation declaring a state of siege in all the provinces beginning at noon today, but later this decision was modified and a proclamation was issued urging the public to maintain order in the face of insurrectionary attempts. Reports received by the cabinet council from a number of points in central Italy show that the Fasclsti are extending their movement with a view to exerting pressure for the formation of a Fascist! cabinet. The Facta ministry, despite its resignation, is acting with energy to re-establish order. Rome and all of the large cities, up to the present time, have not been the scene of any dis turbance of moment. Issue Proclamation.

Sixth Phone 186 Dr. McKeever Has A Substitute For Halloween Pranks Chicago. Oct. is. A substitute for the age-old destructive plan of cele brating Halloween is suggested by Dr. William A McKeever, editor Of the Golden Rule Magazine, child welfare a etnnaftlti TOlth worKer &uu iuuncnj the University of Kansas. In prohib iting pranks of their parents and grandparents, children of today must be given something in their place as a means of observing the festival, he de- C ''Divide the city into specified fes tival zones, ask all ages of the com mon citizenship t come out and frolic with the boys and girls," sug gests Professor McKeever. "Let all wear masks and funny make-ups, children, parents and grandparents all in line together. Let everybody blow horns, kazoos and other noisy instru ments, Let Jokes, yells, song and laughter ring out as much as they will," is Professor McKeever's mod ernized Halloween plan. "Let certain churches, schools and Club centers keep open house for the marching hosts of revelers, giving them a simple hand-out as they pass, and vie with the marching groups in pulling off a stunt of their own. "Thus you may harness the energy which God has stored in the lives of boys and girls and make it pull a load for happiness and righteousness alike. There is nothing the matter with Young America. When I visit your city on Halloween and find that you are defying the boys with threats of punishment and imprisonment In case they do any deviltry I always sneak out and Join them and try to help them to put it over. "We have a way of expecting boys to be brave and courageous at all times, excepting Halloween. Then wo pretend that they should bo soft milk sops and go to bed at 8 p. m. in order to keep out of trouble. Red blooded America Is not of this sort, so I say, get out and romp and frolic with the young crowd. Be one of them, both in conduct and in spirit, and thus con serve their God-given energies rather than try to suppress them." MAKE REPORT ON ORIENT Several Ways In Which Road Can Be Saved, Says Reed. Wichita. Oct. 27. There are four or five ways in which the Kansas City, Mexico Orient railroad may be saved, Clyde M. Reed, chairman of the Kansas public utilities commis sion, declared -here today. Mr. Reed and a delegation of expert traffic men returned today from an inspection of the Orient's line. Karly in November the material which the inspectorsh gathered will Ue-presentod tc the interstate com merce commission, and Mr. Reed an nounced that he would go to Wash ington in an effort to secure some dis position in the matter. "A painstaking effort has been made," Reed stated, "to establish a solid basis for rreconstructing the road." AUSTRIA IN SEED OF MONEY. New Tax on Telephones Will Make Talking Costly. Vienna. In Its desperate effort to raise revenue, the government is lay ing heavy hands on public utility tariffs. Within the past month pos tage has been increased three fold, external telegraph rates 250 per cent, and railway passenger rates eighteen fold. Today an increase in telephone charges is announced which, in addi tion to a recent increase, makes a twelve fold advance over August. At the present rate of exchange 12 calls a day, the Austrian minimum, costs $12 a month; 20 calls, $26; 36 calls, $52, and special tariffs above that. Austria has no unlimited serv ice. In this connection the Neue Freie Presse asserts' that an American group, more than three months ago, approached he government with a view to taking over the telephone service, but has received no reply to its proposal. There is a general demand that the post, telephone and telegraph admin istrations be again consolidated under one department. The Social Demo cratic government, when in power, separated the post from the other two and created a new department with a great increase in personnel. This proposed consolidation, however, in volves the formidable problem of de creasing the number of employes, j something at which every ministry, I has balked. This tymbolof fwatity M your 1 T 1

No prime cattle arrived, and they, too, Would have brought steady prices had any been avail able. Other classes of cattle ruled 15 to 40 cents lower, tb most decline being in steers warmed up on grain from grass, and the medium classes of stockera and feeders. Hogs fell below the 9 cent level aud recorded a new low point aince Janu ary. Fat lambs declined 25 cents from the highest level ef last week. THIS WEEK'S RECEIPTS. Receipts this week were 83,280 cattle, 19, 300 calve, 47.575 hogs, and 39,190 sheep, compared with 70,450 cattle, 25,075 calves. 31,900 hogs, and 44,300 sheep last week, compared with 61.800 cattle, 19,300 calves, 38,550 hogs, and 32,785 sheep a year ago. BEEF CATTLE. Only a small per cent of the cattle re ceived this week showed say amount of grain fat and they sold readily at steady prices. About a half dozen loads sold at $10.65 to $11.40. Full fed steers, showing prime finish, were entirely lacking, and they would hate sold up to the $18.25 top established Inst week had they been avail able. A large number of Bteers that had been warmed up from grass fat brought $8.25 to $10.50, while straight grass int steers sold up to $9.50. Medium half fat steers st $5.50 to $0.50 predominated, and sold lower than last week. "Canner" cows declined 25 to vO cents, and fat cows and heifers 25 cents Choice light weight veal calves were steady, and the heavier grades 25 to 50 centa lower. SHpCKER3 AND FEEDERS.

HOOS, With snotber 10 cent decline today, tbe hog market underwent a general break during the week that took quotations well under the 9 cent level and to the lowest position since January, Tbe break was ex. fhected, but It did not develop the propor tions manV had looked for and it Is not unlikely tliat the 8 cent quotation will be maintained up to early December. The top price todiy waa $8.50 and bulk of sales $8.25 to $8.45. SHEEP AND LAMBS. Lamb prices broke 25 cents In the past few days, tho the general market main tains a healthy tone.

The party, this year-promises to be one of the largest ever given by this popular charitable organization. Dame Rumor has announced that many new costumes will make their initial bow to society that afternoon. I The U. and I. club is one of the old est organizations in Topeka whose energies are devoted solely to charity work. The club was organized thirty five years ago for the purpose of "giv ing help and care to old ladies who were alone and4 needy." While the club has always devoted its principal energies to the work for which it was organized yet it has added many dii ferent channels for doing charitable work. For years the U. and I. club has maintained a cot at Christ s hos pital where poor children or girls or women could be sent and cared for. It was the U. and I. club that started the first "Baby Welfare" work in To peka. The club hired a graduate nurse to care for sick babies during the summer months at the Provident Association and after the Topeka Public Health association was estab lished the U. and I. club paid for the services of a baby nurse each summer until the American Ked Cross took, this work over. This gives very brief ly an idea of the work this club does and the good that is accomplished thru the U. and 1. club. The committee In charge of the. bridge tables for the party is com posed of Mrs. F. W Freeman, chair man; Mrs. Arch M. Catlin, Mrs., George Clark and Mrs. Harrison Mor gan.

Dear Elizabeth: Remember, Eliz abeth, the little "squib" I wrote you several weeks ago about the Topeka man' in -California who was showing signs of interest in a wealthy eastern widow? Well, the shoe certainly did fit for no less than half a dozen peo ple have come to me wondering which Topeka man I meant and it seems that Topeka must have a pretty good assortment of widowers, grass and otherwise, who are in Californiaand who are interested in wealthy eastern widows. Now that sounds like a mat rimonial ad but it seems to be so. A Topeka bride who is on her hon eymoon trip sent a telegram back to her mother saying, "Mother, he is so kind to me." And the mother, having a sense of humor, wired back, "Real ly we thought he would be cruel." All sorts of lovely things were re ceived by a recent bride and bride groom as wedding gifts. Among them were checks amounting to about six thousand dollars, four complete sets, of sterling silver, four coffee services, a perfectly gorgeous tablecloth and nap kins of wonderful lace and embroid ery, a half dozen or so soliil silver dishes and heaps and heaps of other things. Speaking of brides makes me think of a Topeka bride who was married during the "casserole age" and who received a round lorty of them as wedding gifts. Then there was an other Topeka bride who specialized in silver salt and pepper shakers, receiv ing a couple of dozen. All of which makes one draw the conclusion that it must be nice to live in a small town and get married. Then there is only one jeweler to buy things from and he can tell every one what every one else has bought the prospective bride and bridegroom. False pride certainly hurts some people for the other day I saw the funniest thing. A woman about whom we write in the society colm parked a lovely seven passenger sedan in front of a "Coney Island" place down on the Avenue the other day. Peering both up and down the street to see if any one whom she knew was looking the woman got out of the car and slipping up to the door of the place again looked up and down the street and seeing no one that sha knew went in and ordered four- with onions. Well, Elizabeth, I'm going to Hays, Kan., to live, a little town where about every one comes down on Sat urday night and every other night for that matter? to watch the train come in. TOU alSO go to town On Saturday night to see every one that vnn bnnw for in the country about every one gets, out the flivver or the Cadillac, and comes to town on Saturday night. Perhaps I'll write you about it some time. FRANCES JOKES.

I was perfectly amazed when I stopped at Crane's, yesterday, to see the rapid growth of the Dennison de partment. The display of crepe paper and sealing wax novelties is larger, and there are several new "teaching tables." Miss Chitwood, the head of the department, is a talented and most obliging young woman.' She will either take orders for the pretty nut diBhes, favors, place cards, table deco rations of all kinds, fancy costumes, etc., or give instructions In making them. Special school children's classes have been arranged for each Saturday morning from 9 until 11 o'clock. The paper work is taught at Crane's every day except Thursday, which is devoted to waxwork, and Friday the day set aside for filling orders. Miss Chitwood is also giving lessons In decorating wild grasses, milkweed pods, cat-tails, etc. Really you can't Imagine, a more charming "winter bouquet." The new hanging flower baskets are made of crepe paper ropes, woven over ice tea ejasses. This is only one of the many attractive and inexpensive novelties, so suitable as gifts that you may learn to make in the Dennison Department at Craae's.

YOU'D BE SURPRISED at the number of people in town who watch the regular advertisement in The State Journal in which Mr. Jones and Mr. Uircii air their business troubles. The readers' sympathies go out first to one and then to the other and among the more seriously inclined there is belief that tho partners "do not get along." that they "must be terrible enemies" and that they shirk their work. I see these two men regularly in their printing establishment and 1 often wonder how they turn out so much fine work and still find time to fish and play golf and motor and and write advertisements. It all goes to show what it means to have a tKoro and efficient business organization and an enviable business reputation. "And you wouldn't begin a Journey on Kridav?"

Humphrey, lo cal attorney, saved Pearl Wilson, negro, from being fined in police court Friday afternoon. Judge S. L.

If written in the third person and if an act of fiction it would be a sor did sort of a combination Sherwood Anderson Upton Sinclair. Written In the first person and apparently a true story of the life of a youngster whose head was in the skies and whose feet was in the mud, it really is a startling piece of modern autobiography. It is a brazen work. It spares neither blasphemy nor eroticism. It uses words and phrases that a few years ago would- have caused it to have been ene of the books the cor ner drug store Langers-on peeked into behind the prescription case. Ia this respect it is almost repul sive. The time may come when the American general reading public can sit by the fireside and read in black and white the profanity and obscenity of the alleys but as yet it doesn't seem quite right. Most men have heard these Spoken curses yet they abhor them in print. Kansas readers and especially the alumni of Kansas university will be greatly interested in "Trampiig on Life." A good part of fhe book Beals with Harry Kemp's days at the state university. He calls It an autobiography therefore what he writes is supposed to be truthful. In that event, Kemp pictures a rather startling condition of his time in K. U. His statement that the fraternities "keep women" for their members is enough to arouse the condemnations of university au thorities. Kemp's references to William Al len White, his visit to Emporia, his impression of Walt Mason, his frank ness in admitting that he cultivated the acquaintanceship of Jay House for the purpose of gaining notoriety these stories and many more smack of Kansas. The climax of the book deals in his success at capturing the wife of a famous writer, living with her In the woods and finally running away to New York. It is a remarkable in cident to be placed in print in such a short time following the occasion. Somehow or other it is indicative of trouble for Harry Kemp. Develop ments will tell. "Tramping on Life" will be heard from before the year Is over. It is hereby predicted that it will cause a stir in bookdom possibly in Kansas and in the private life of the author. It is an interesting and well writ ten and exceedingly bold account of a man's struggle for notoriety and recognition. One book like this, however, is enough. Marie Conway Oemler, whose latest novel is "Two Shall Be Born," (Cen tury) in introducing an Irish-Ameri can element into the new romance, which has to do with a millionaire Irish "cop" and a Polish princess, is Dut maKing good use of a knowledge or tne irisn temperament that is in stinctive. Her grandmother, "a Scotch covenanter," Mrs. Oemler says, "who was by mistake born an Irish Catholic, and in Tipperary at that," was a thoro Irishwoman, a wonaerful dancer, singer and teller of tales and be lieved implicitly In fairies. And this wonderful grandmother had a great deal lp do with the molding of the little granddaughter whom she called by an Irish love-name Maureen dhu, meaning "dark little Mary." Alfred F. Loomls. author of that successful book of an adult playtime, "The Cruise of the Hippocampus." has gone into the juvenile field, and the Century company will bring out a boys' book of his in the not distant future. Why does K. U. remain so silent on the expose of university life in Harry Kemp's new book "Tramping on Life" "When I refhct upon the changes I have seen in my native city of Chi cago I feel that I ought to have a flowing white beard, carry a staff, wear sandals "and drape myself in a bedspread like a Biblical patriarch," says Julian Street, whose first novel, "Rita Coventry," has just been pub lished by Doubleday, Page Com pany. "Forty-three years ago, when I was born, Chicago had only half a million inhabitants. Nor could it then prop erly be called a city of half a million. It had the area and numbers of a city, but it almjsst utterly lacked metro politan advantages and disadvantages. It was like an overgrown country town, and my boyhood was like a country-town boyhood. I have always been thankful for that. "Moreover, I heard so much of earlier days from my parents and grandparents that 1 feel as tho I re membered Chicago from 'its begln- the Halloween masquerade party thatTnings. The Civil war broke out near ly twenty years before I was born but- I remember the fourteen thou sand Confederate prisoners at Camp Douglas. I counted them myself. Also I remember well my sensations as I fled from the Chicago fire, seven years before my births' Clarence Darrow's "Crime and Pun ishment" will be reviewed by Dr. Karl A.
