Other Sporting News.

J. c. Elliott defeated J. C. Clark yes
terday afternoon at the grounds of the
West Side Gun club in a twenty-five bird
race by a score of 16 to IL.
The poor scores made by these gentle
men, who are recognized as two of the
best shots in Topeka, were in a great
measure excusable, owing to the eX-
tremely unfavorable weather. The day
was disagreeably cold and stiff wind
blew directly in the faces of the shooters,
causing the smoke from their first bar
rels to almost blind them.
The birds were the fastest lot trapped
in Topeka for many a day, there being
but three sitters in the lot.
Mr.. Clark was first to the score and
drew low, swift driver from trap No. 3
which, though hard hit, escaped over
the boundary line. His second bird was
also lost
Mr.. Elliott lost his first and fourth, then
made pretty run of eight straight.
Had the weather been favorable the
race would have been an exceptionally
interesting one, as both MIR. Clark and
Mr.. Elliott are very quick shots, and
when shooting in form usually center
their birds in manner that leaves no
chance of them escaping. They are prob
ably more evenly matched, too, than any
other two shots in Topeka.
The score:
Clarke O21O*021O 0O1221O

r. c. BIEADE's TRIAL.
The Information was Filed Against Him
at Atchison Today.

ATCuIsoN, Nov. 9-The information in
the case of the state of Kansas against
f. c. Meade was filed in the district
court today. The information is in two
counts. The first one charges Meade
with having feloDiousIy obtained the
signature of Mrs. Fanny Piikington to a
check for 1915 on the Atchison Savings
bank. The second count charges Meade
with having obtained S215 from Mrs.
Pilkington by means of false pretenses
and forgery and bogus written instru-
ments.
The 1915 only represents drop in the
bucket, but it is the charge upon which
he was arrested and secured by requisi-
ton, and lawyers say, the only charge
upon which he can now be tried. The
punishment for obtaining money under
false pretenses is the same as grand lar
ceny; from one to five years in the state
penitentiary.
His case will be called for trial week
from today.

Filed in Atchison.
OSbon Trial to be Reheard at

LEAvENwoRTH, Now a. The city
treasury is almost completely depleted SO
far as available funds are concerned.
The city is this month unable to meet
the obligations incurred by it last month
Those who hold bills against the city
wandered and marveled why they were
not paid yesterday and today when pre-
sented at the city clerks Office.
The failure Of the city to meet it's bills
is easily explained. There is no money
on hand for this purpose and there is
not likely to be any for couple of
months. This will prove a hardship to
many people; but apparently there is
now no remedy.
The city council Wednesday night
passed the usual monthly appropriation
ordinance, but that ordinance did not
provide for paying the city's current ex-
penses for October. 1t simply apDro-
priated money to pay the salaries of city
officers and employees, and to pay the
street commissioners pay roll, amount
ing 10 little more than $500
The bills not provided for will prob
ably aggregate $4,000, although the city
clerk has not figured up the exact
amount. Most people holding them are
sorely disappointed.
December the council may be able to
get enough money to pay salaries by
scraping the bottom of the treasury
vault, but even this is not certain. Then
when January comes there will have ac-
cumulated the expenses of three months
