HOCH NOT DONE YET.
Said to Be a Candidate for State
Printer.
THIS IS THE LATEST STORY.

Republican state Central Committee
Said to be secretly In Favor OfHim-
Senator Browa Responsible for the
story.
The very latest political news Is that
Editor E. w. Hoch of the Marion Record,
is soon to become an active candidate for
state printer.
Up to this time it has been generally
supposed that if the Republicans cap
ture the legislature the fight for the state
partnership would be between Major J.
K Hudson of the Capital and George w.
Crane. who were the Republican candi-
dates two years ago.
1t now turns out that a boom for Ed.
Hoch for state printer has been started
and he is said to have the backing of the
state central committee.
The news came to Topeka through
State Senator Milton Brown of Garden
City, who was here a few days ago at
tending supreme court.
A prominent lawyer who has the con-
idence of Senator Brown says that when
Brown went to Hutchinson last week to
hear Mckinley he was approached on
the Hoch Partnership boom.
Senator Brown says a politician well
known in state circles took him out Of
the crowd and asked him how he was
going to vote on the state Partnership
Brown replied that he did not know. He
hadn't thought about it at all. To this
the old time politician replied. "Yes you
do OF course you do You know very well
that you are going to vote for Ed. HOch.
You know very well that everything is
put up for Hoch for state printer, and
that all the old members of the senate
and the state central committee are in
on it,
Senator Brown insisted that he was
ignorant of any such deal and had not
had any intimation that Hoch was a can
didate or would be a candidate. He said
he had not heard from Hoch since before
he wrote his famous letter announcing
his candidacy for governor Hoch had
prior to that written to all the ReDu blican
senators saying he expected to be a can
didate for state printer and asking their
support
Senator Browns legal friend who gives
out this Information says there is no
doubt but that the state central commit
tee is favoring, in a quiet way, Hoch's
candidacy for state printer.

FIDDLED WITH HIS LEG.
A Queer Spectacle 20 Be Seen on Topeka
Streets.

A Queer Spectacle 90 Be Seen on Topeka
Streets.
The dismal squeak of q violin on
street corner does not always attract at
tention but there was a street musician
on Kansas avenue yesterday who drew
large crowd He could play no better
than the average blind street "fddler,n
but his music was an unearthly kind and
he seemed to play from his soul
The violinist was a man Of perhaps
dfty years. He was not blind but his
left sleeve was empty from the shoulder.
He held his violin bow with his left leg.
This may sound funny but it is fact.
The bow was held firmly under the knee
joint the leg being bent as much as pos
sible. Instead of the motion of the bow
over the strings he moved the violin
backward and forward under the bow
swaying his whole body for the purpose.
His worn and battered hat sat before
him to catch the stray nickels which
happened to fall into it. The nickels
were very few but the musician did not
mind He seemed to have forgotten
everything around him and was living in
another world. For an hour he sat and
played and then picking UP his shabby
hat he transferred the few nickels to his
pocket and went away.

through the list of about a thousand

craving. The name in itself implies
most beautiful meaning, Webster defines
the mythical meaning as that Of the
"Goddess Of the morning, or daybreak

rosy fingers dropping gentle dew Alr

Comp etftion Cuts the Price of Beer in Two
at St joe
The jointists of Topeka and their pa
irons will no doubt be interested in the
news that comes from Kansas City and
ST. Joseph, that the price of beer has
been reduced from $1.75 and 81 per keg,
to rs cents and 81. A ST. Joe paper says:
"About three months ago Helms
brewery and the Rochester brewery es-
tablished agencies here. They went
after the trade and offered lots Of in
ducements, finally cutting the price. All
the others, Lemp. Pabst, Anthony s.
Kuhn and the local men met the cut and
it went on down till beer is row sold at
half price. Saloon keepers are buying a
large supply, and say they will keep it
all winter. as it can be done at little ex-
pense. The agents of foreign breweries
on one side and the local men on the
other held meetings Saturday night, but
nothing definite was decided upon"
