Edward Wilder Will Talk on the
Subject
At A MUNICIPAL LEAGUE MEETING
This VIII be g Matter of Interest &c

kssOm the Park idea.

This VIII be Matter of Interest tc
All TOpekaEs-Turn Out and Help
EseOm the Park idea.
When the Municipal league takes up
the question of "Parks' the people of
Topeka should stop and listen. What
Topeka needs most next to a bridge
across the Kansas river is at least one
park which will be a credit to the city
The best authority on the question of
parks is Edward Wilder and hs will ad-
dress the league on the question at
Trades Assembly hall tomorrow evening.
Mr. Wilder is one of the mon who can
assist the city to secure suitable parks
and if he and other prominent citizens
take hold OF the matter we may expect
soon TO have just what is needed.
Tho Municipal league should act on
the suggestions made by Dir. Wilder
The members complain that they can
find nothing that requires attention, and
now they find the much coveted oppOr-
tunity to do something which will be of
lasting benefit TO the city.
One OF the members of the league, in
discussing the question. said: There
never WAS a time when property was so
| cheap IS it is now, and the city could do
no better than 10 buy tract of land and
make PARK Oh II. mere are places
around Topeka that could be secured
very cheap, and then We might have a
place where a person could go and en-
| joy the luxury of fresh air. trees and sun
shine and forget his cares The league
can not do better than to take uD this
! question and see what can be done"
The people of Topeka should turn out
to hear Mr.. Wilder's suggestions, and
then they should assist in seeing that
they are carried out
The meeting of the Municipal league
will be held in the hall of the Trades
Assembly in the present STATE JOURNAL
building on Seventh street, at the rear OF
the Central National bank block.

TO FOURTEEN HOURS.
Santa Fe Schedule Time Between
Chicago and Kansas City
TO BE REDUCED one HOUR.

Railroad Notes of General Interest
About Runsas Lines, officials and
Employees.
A reduction OF the running time be-
tween Kansas City and Chicago is under
consideration by the Santa Fe company,
and it is probable that the schedule will
be cut to fourteen hours within the next
few weeks.
The running time at present is fifteen
hours, which ia considered to be too
slow, as the operating department of the
road reports that trains can be run in
twelve hours with perfect safety between
the two cities.
The Santa Fe has recently ballasted
its track andreplaced all wooden bridges
with stone culverts between Kansas City
and Chicago, and that division OF the
system is in first class condition.
From the fact that it would precipitate
a cut in rates by all lines, which on &C
count of greater mileage would not be
able to make the same time, the Santa
Fe having the shortest route. it is not
proposed to reduce the time less than
fourteen hours.

POLICE ARRESTS.


The policemen of Topeka can tell q
drunken person as far as they can see
him and the arrests they make of people
who are not drunk when they think they
are are few and far between, Not one
drunk who was arrested last month was
found not guilty. There were SO who
paid the penalty.
The arrests are not nearly as frequen
as they used to be when the force was
new. The total numb Der fer October was
113. The day which yielded the most
offenders to the city prison was tho 9th, a
month ago today. Then IL persons were
placed within its walls. It was the day
after the Kansas City carnival
1t is interesting to note the number of
convictions in police court in com arison
with the number of arrests. A few of
the most frequent offenses are given be-
low, The first column represents the
urm Der of arrests and the second the
convictions for the month:

The Theory Was Good Ons, But IT
Didn't Work Out.
There is good joke on a Topeka d.
vine scientist
She has been a healer herself, though
not a ward heller, and has been known
laying on of hands and through the
triumph of mind over matter.
Two weeks ago she was taken sick
with asthma. 1t was to be = case of heal
thyself and she tried it. 1t didn't work.
There was just as much asthma there as
ever there was; perhaps more. It seemed
so.
Her hands seemed to have lost their
cunning and her mind triumphed over
no matter. 1t was hard luck.
But there were Others. She sent for
one and the laying Ga of hands business
was done all over again. More asthma
was attracted, probably by the spectacle.
Her divine scientist friends were then
called at the rate of two or three, but it
did no good.
There was horrible fate in store for
this little scientist, and she saw it. Pride
goes before a fall, however, and real
live flesh and blood doctor was to be call
ed in.
Morphine was all she would submit to,
though.
1t was about here that some i'll man
nered person laughed at the scientists
because of the case. This made them all
mad, and the next time they went down
in a bunch. But they were off in bunch,
too, for it did no good. and now
the greatest calamity of ali is at hand,
for she is submitting to the treatment of
the medicine doctor and, horror of hor-
rors, is getting we'll.
