News Items in Topeka and AlsnE
Kansas Lines.
A new block system for railroad sig
mailing to prevent head and rear end col
lisions, has been invented by Judson
Shoecraft of Topeka who is the origina-
tor of the block system now in use on
some of the roads.
The invention is attracting some atten-
ton among railroad men and the Rock
Island will give Shoecraft's invention a
trial and it will be put In for an expert
ment
The apparatus looks much ike switch
target and these targets will be placed
two or three miles apart The target
operates by clock work attached to
an electric magnet A battery is
carried on the engine which, when it
passes over the track next the target
starts the clock work which turns the
target so as to indicate that train has
passed When the engine passes the
next target two or three miles further on
the target and that first passed is turned
back to the safe" point, the two targets
being connected by wires
The point is that an engineer approach
ing from either way may know by the
signals whether a train is two or three
miles in front or behind him.

DENOUNCE BOODLEISM.

Chicago People Burn an Alderman in
Effigy and Call Him Traitor.
CHICAGO, June 8.-Over 200 residents
of South Chicago assembled in an open
air mass meeting last night to denounce
doodle aldermen" and protest against
the action of the Chicago city council in
passing an ordinance granting to the
Calumet and Blue Island railway right
of way through the residence portion of
the town known as the least side"
Alderman Shepherd, of the Thirty
third ward, was denounced as a traitor
and burned in effigy. Resolutions urg
ing Mayor Swift to veto the ordinance
and to aid the civic federation in "get-
ting at the root of the great evil" were
adopted.

Prof. SamueIs' Ideas Re-
garding Eyes Entire
Iy His Own.
He Believes People Ought to Do
Their Own Thinking, and Not
Accept the Thoughts of Their
Ancestors - Willing to Teach
Others-A Few Words Which
All Should Read.

People are laboring under great mis-
apprehension regarding their eyes In
the first place they think, or rather they
have been taught that they should
not assist their eyes until they are
obliged to do so. They have been made
to believe that they should not put on
glasses until they could see no more.
They never investigated this matter
themselves. They take it for granted
because their Ancestors told them SO.
1t is in this line like in a great many
othera They were brought up to be-
lieve certain things because their an
cestors believed them in fact they
thought that it would make them IN
happy to believe otherwise. The people
of today ought to be a thinking people.
Do your own reasoning. 1t costs you
nothing to investigate.
Prof. Samuels claims that it is the
duty of each and every person to inves-
tigate mistakes no matter in what branch
they are. The trouble with most people
is that they copy the errors of their pre-
decessors. Prof Samuels is no copyist.
He knows quite we'll that the public
were misled regarding their eyes and
health. AS is we'll known, he is Origi-
nal, and not q plagiarist He claims
that a great many diseases ought to be
treated through the eyes, that they can
be reached there, and that a school
ought to be established to teach this
doctrine. Prof Samuels would be will
ing to teach people, but he can't be all
over the world. If all those suffering with
nervousness will call on him he will
cure them, through treatment of the
eyes alone.
His hours are from a. m. to p. m.

THE SWEDISH CONCERT.
A Large Audience Listens to It at the
FirAt NJ. z. Churoh.

A Large Audience Listens to It at the
First NJ. E. Church.
Mr.. Franz Zedeler is an artistic violin
list Also Mr.. n. A Krantz brings forth
charming music from the pipe organ,
while Mr.. Sigfred Laurin interprets
Liszt on the piano These three gem
tlemen and Mr.. George Hapgood COM
pose the Swedish Concert company,
from Bethany college, at Lindsborg,
Kans. .
They are professors of music in the
college. The Epworth League brought
them here.
The First Methodist church was about
two-thirds filed with music loving peo-
pie last evening. Mr.. N. A. Krantz
opened the evenings entertainment with
pipe organ solo, well played. Later on
he played the "Pilgrim Chorus" from
Tannhauser. He also SINCE; he favored
the audience with pleasing ballad.
"The Deep Cold Sea" was sung by Mr..
George Hapgood, in a deep bass voice.
He was recalled and esponded with that
old time favorite, The Mighty Deep"
In the quartette numbers he played q
cornet
Probably the liveliest pianist that has
been in Topeka lately was Mr.. Sigfred
Laurin. He played two numbers by
List, the first being the "Campspella
Rhapsody" and the other "Concert
Waltz (Paraphrasel" In the latter the
stirring strains of the Faust waltz ap-
pear. His expression is excellent, but
he made several mis-strokes last evenin g
in some of the forte parts. He has 9
peculiar way of jerking his hands up
after striking the keys. Often he lifted
his hands above his head This amused
the audience.
Jolly little Franz Zedeler was the star
of the evening. His technique is excel
lent, his expression peculiar to his per-
sonality, and his tone beautiful. He
played two solos on his rare old violin
and received a vociferous applause. His
encore numbers were just right-bright
and short There were two quartette
numbers. In these Mr.. Zedeler played
the violin. Mr.. Krantz the viola, Mr..
Hapgood the cornet and Mr.. Laurin the
piano. The first number was selection
from Tannhauser, the Evening Star,"
and the second, an overture by Suppe.
Both were pleasing, but the audience
liked the solos better. The concert was,
on the whole, very good-even better
than the one given here by them last
year. Tonight these gentlemen, who
hail from Sweden, will give a concert at
the First Lutheran church.
The true test of a baking powder is
we'll known to every housekeeper. 1t is
to try it in making bread, cake, etc, and
we are of the opinion that 1t will be
impossible to remove from the minds OF

formed from the application of this prac-
teal test, that the Royal does make the
best, the most, and the most wholesome.

COMPLAINT ABOUT CONTRACTS.

Topeka Firms Bid Low Enough to Get
Contracts They Didn't Get.
Some of the local merchants are dissat-
isfied with the way the state board of
charities let the contracts for state sup
plies this week.
A Junction City firm was given the
contract for mop handles, although a To-
peka firm bid 20 cents less on handles of
the same make.
1t is also charged that the sugar con-
tract went to a firm which bid % cents a
hundred more than Il Topeka firm.
The Topeka merchants say there is
nothing new IN this way of distributing
state contracts, but they had supposed
a business administration" would recog-
nize the lowest bidder more frequently
than ordinary political machines.
