Eleven years ago but two horses had
trotted or paced in 2:1O. The fastest was,
of course, a PAGER, for Johnston had mark

is MISS BENNETT DEAD?
Her Relatives 1n this City do Not
Believe the Report.

Two Topeka papers have publish a
street rumor announcing the death of
Miss Belle Bennett in South Africa, but
there seems TO be no foundation for the
rumor.
Miss Bennett was for a number of
years a teacher in the Topeka public
schools and for two years has
been a teacher in Worcester Sem
mary, Worcester, Cape Colony, South
Africa. Her father, Mr.. George Ben
nett, died at his home in North Topeka
last week, and now, according to a street
rumor, Miss Bennett has died in south
Africa.
Mr. Charles Bennett, the optician, and
Mrs. G. W. NJ White of North Topeka,
brother rnd sister of Miss Bennett have
not been notified of their sisters death,
and have been unable totra ce the rImCr
10 any authentic source.
Mr.. Bennett yesterday received let
ter from his sister and when it was writ
ten she was in her usual health. 1t
takes letter four weeks to travel be-
tween Worcester and Topeka.
Mr.. Charles Bennett said this after
noon that he was anxious to trace the
rumor to its source and it
is possible he may this evening send a
cablegram to Miss Eunice Lyman, form
erly of Topeka. who is teaching the same
school with Miss Bennett.

1t was very quiet market today, with
a strong undertone, and small business.
Northwestern receipts were very moder-
ate but larger than the same day year
ago. Gables were rather firmer but re-
ported trade quiet and Bradstreet's re-
port was construed as rather bearish.
The market frmed up near the close
and the best prices of the day were
made. There was no war news and the
political situation across the big pond
seems to be more settled, and wheat
ought to do better on its legitimate
merits from now on. Brosseau was a
good seller on the last advance, but his
offerings were easily absorbed by the
shorts covering and buying by Champ
Inns brokers.
Corn and oats were dull but good
cash demand kept the market strong and
the closing was firm, with indications of
a better market tomorrow. Provisions
were firm and prices ruled steady at d
fair advance over the closing figure: of
yesterday. May pork seems to be good
purchase on breaks and We look for
higher range of prices soon as receipts
of hogs are lighter, as they are expected
to be from now on.

AN ORIGINAL RULING.
Judge Hazen's Decision .In Failures
to

to Get Service,
A peculiar question was brought up in
the case of the Buford & George Imple-
ment company of Kansas City against
F. d. Neiswander. a Silver Lake farmer.
in the district court Monday. It involved
an important ruling on cases where the
plaintiff fails to get service.
The Buford & George company held
three notes of $240 each against Mr.. MESH
winder. which fell due on March /, April
l and May 1, 1894. With the three days
grace this would make the notes
due on the fourth day of each month"; On
February 81, 1894, summons was issued
to the sheriff, but this was returned I'M
observed for lack of time. The next
one was served. but did not state
for what amount the plaintiff would take
judgment if Neiswinder failed to
appear. This was considered null and
void, and ON the third attempt the county
clerk issued the summons on April 81,
but made it returnable April 20. After
this comedy of errors in the clerks
Office service was finally obtained
on May Z, three days after
the last note became due. Neiswinder
pleaded statute limitations and Judge
Hazen decided this morning in his favor
on the last two notes.
THE law which protects the plaintiff
who fails of service does not do so after
80 days have elapsed" said the judge.
Two payments had been made on the
first note, however, and the judge
ordered judgement against Neiswinder
for $161.16, the amount still due on the
first note. 1t would have been better for
him had he paid nothing on it.

leaving, but finally said when Judge

the time and had to take his family to
live with his mother. His wife would
not live there.
Judge Hazen granted the divorce Mrs.
