His Color Did Not Prevent His Enter
tainment if He Came from Topeka.
Henry billiard, who has been attached
to the United States court in the posi-
ton of bailiff for many years. often acts
as deputy marshal and serves papers.
Henry is a very light colored mulatto.
but he often finds that his color stands
in the way of his comfort during his
travels over the state
A few days ago he went down to Cow
ley county to serve some subpoenaes for
witnesses at the present term of the Fed
eral court and it became necessary for
him to go to the little village of Akron.
After he had served the papers he found
that he would be compelled to stay all
aight in the village. He hunted the
place over but was refused lodging ev-
erywhere. Then he concluded to spend
the night in the little cold room which
served as a railroad station. He was
standing on the platform thinking OF
home about nine o'clock when he heard
someone coming. The man approached
cautiously for there had been a holdup
the evening before and when he got near
enough he called to Henry.
When the man said: We'll, I'll de-
clare, Henry, l am glad to see YOU
The deputy was dumbfounded but he
foaud that the man was Marion Tramp
ton who formerly worked in the Santa
Fe offices in Topeka. He was the station
master, and Henry begged permission to
spend the night in the depot.
The man refused but took the aston
ished colored man home with him, gave
him bed to sleep in and sat down to
the table with him the next morning.

Bishop Ninde Talked on the New Woman
Last Night.
There was not large audience at the
annual meeting of the Young Womens
Christian Association at the First Con-

there was good programme.
On account of sickness Bishop Vincent
was not able TO be present aud his place
was filed by Bishop w. X. Ninde.
Among other things Bishop Ninde said:
Il can remember back sixty years ago
of hearing that famous woman, Mrs.
Addie Kelly Forbes, speak at an aboli-
ton meeting. People. were surprised
then, to see a woman go upon the plat
form and speak. They thought she was
transcending her sphere. Today woman
is on the platform and how parliamentary
she is.

kind of work to which she is inclined. I

ALASKA-CANADAL LINE.
Explanation of the Treaty So Much
Discussed Now.
SOME EXPECT TROUBLE BETWEEN

The Two Governments Over This
Matter, but Very Likely 1t VIII AIl
BeFIxed Up by the state Department.
If you are newspaper reader, which.
of course. you are, else You would not
be reading this, you have been puzzled
over and over again by the almost daily
illusions to the dispute about the bound
airy between Alaska and Canada, and
it is quite possible that you have formed
an opinion as to the right and wrong of
the matter, perhaps without really
knowing much about it. It is the opin-
ion Of the present writer that But this
article is to be informing merely and
not indamnatory and will deal with
facts and not preferences.
In way the differences between the
queen s colonists and Uncle Sans men
are a legacy from the Russians, since the.
treaty between Russia and the British
defining the eastern boundary of Rus
sian America was accepted by the Unit
ed States when Alaska was purchased
from the Russians in 1857. No trouble
arose until a few. years ago, when parties
of American and Canadian engineers
were sent to locate the line. The British

Have Now Taken Up the Project.

Nearly All the Papers I'm the City
Have Now Taken Up the Project.
The Semi Weekly Advocate of No
vember % says editorially:
The idea recently suggested of hold
ing a carnival in Topeka next fall is
meeting with favor everywhere. To-
peka is distinctly Kansas town. What
ever it has attained can be traced
to no other source than the Sunfower
state. It has all the opportunities and
conveniences to entertain the entire
state, Every year thousands of Kansas
people go to Kansas City and spend
thousands of dollars attending the
Priests of Pallas and the Karnival Krewe
festivities. There seems to be no good
reason why Topeka should not have a
fall entertainment which would afford
Kansas people a chance to spend their
money at home. The only reason why the
city has not had its share of visitors in the
past is that no effort has been made to get
them. The effort should and will now be
made Business mon are taking hold of the
matter and will contribute literally, both
means and work, to make the carnival a
success. An effort will be made to bring
enough bands to the city to furnish
plenty of music. The G. A. r. posts
will do all in their power to bring the
state reunion here and a good pro-
gramme will be arranged. The people
will do the rest. They will not fail
to come if a good honest effort is put
forth to make the entertainment a
meritorius one. The result will be
beneficial to both entertainers and the
entertained Topeka business men will
be brought closer to out of-town custom
ers who should do more business in this
city and state and less in outside cities
and states. Hundreds of people who
have never been in Topeka will come
and feel like coming again. A carnival
and the state reunion here next Septem-
Der is just the thing, and every body
should do everything possible to make OF
that event one long to be remem bered by
everybody in the state.

A WELL IN JAIL.

Gourdafn, the New Orleans Lottery Man,
Must Reside in Our Lookup.
L A. Gourdain, the New Orleans lot
terry magnate, was resentenced this morn
ing by Judge Foster. He was found
guilty of using the mails for lottery pur-
poses, and the court of appeals refused
to grant a new trial.
One startling thing made by Gourdain
in his defense was that he was being per-
secuted by the old Louisiana lottery
Gourdain W as given the same sentence
he received before, sixty days in jail and
a fine of $500.
He has plenty of money, and when he
appealed his case last year put up 81, 800
in cash as security.
He will probably be the best dressed
man who ever entered the Shawnee coun-
ty Jail. He wears patent leather shoes
and is dressed in the latest style.
