An old Time Concert Singer.

Nine. Antoinette Sterling, who is visit
ing in the United States at present, is BIS
enthusiastic an American as ever spent tho
most of her life in a foreign country. Mu-
steal engagements have kept her in Eng
land for a score OF years or more, and now
in returning to her own country she is
thrilled by the rush and vigOr of life by
the brilliancy of color and sunlight after
the quietness ard grayness of the seagiTt
island which has been her home. Since
she crossed the ocean another generation
has grown up to which her name is unfa-
miliar. Only the veterans remember her
fame as a concert singer in New York and
other eastern cities, and only the travellers
are aware that her name on a programme
today will fill any hall in England. Her
first concert in the mother country brought
her the greatest triumph which London
had accorded to any singer for 40 years,
and the popularity she won in a night has
never yVaned

TO DIsBAR A. II. CASE.
Disbarment Proceedings Against Him
and G. w. Carey Being Heard.

The trial of the disbarment proceed
ingS in which it is sought to diSbar
from the practice of law, A. H. Case
and @. w. Carey was commenced in
the district court this morning by the
examination of J. 3. Johnson, ex-judge
of the defunct circuit court.
The case is being prosecuted by J. S.
Ensminger and the story is as follows:
Something more than a year ago
Mrs. Mary Brown began proceedings
in the circuit court asking that a. GER
tain transaction she had had with
man named Kellogg be set aside and
declared void.
She alleged that Kellogg had de-
frauded her in such a way that by the
payment of a small sum of money by
him he was to come into possession of
property of the value of 1000 located
in Shawnee and Butler counties.
Her attorneys in the case were A. H
Case and G. w. Carey.
a large number Of dispositions were
taken at ElDOrado and used in the case
here which occupied two days time of
the court.
The disbarment case now pending
rests on the reasona bleness of the fees
charged.
Judge Ensminger says Case and Carey
charged her almost 81. 200 and took it
out of money paid to them as her law
yers without letting her know it was
going to be done.
Ensminger claims that $500 would
have been very good fee and that no
more than that should have been
charged.
Judge Johnson testified that he
would consider the services rendered
in the case worth from 5000 to $500.
The rest of the case will be heard at
some future time which Judge Hazen
has not vet designated.

A .HIGH'' DID IT.
That was What Gaze Us a Cool Night
and Day.

Highs that pass in the night are
productive of cooler air in the morning.
A mountain high made a flying trip
through Kansas last night, and as a
result the thermometer at 6 o'clock this
morning registered but g. At o'clock
this afternoon it had climbed only as
far as 80, and a pleasant breeze from
the northwest was blowing. Highs"
will always be welcome during the
sweltering period
The prediction sent out by the
weather bureau today states thatshow-
ers will fall in Kansas tonight and to-
morrow. Mr.. Jennings says that the
atmosphere has a very rainy feel, but
that it does not always pan out as it
feels.
The weather is reported generally
clear throughout the state today, the
temperature ranging from 75 to So. On
the main line of the Santa Fe from
Sterling to Great Bend, one-fourth of
an inch of rain fell last night. and rain
also fell on the Hutchinson Great Bend,
Mcpherson and Little River branches
In Colorado today the weather is re-
ported clear and pleasant, and in New
Mexico and Texas clear and warm.

ever been appointed to such a position
in the world, and the curiosity about
her was considerable. She was able to
find a picture and sketch of herself in
almost every paper she picked up for
several months
She was a smart woman and made
one of the best police commissioners
LeavenwOrth ever had. She also edited
a tour as a Popuist lecturer with Mrs.
Mary Lease.
Mrs. Blackman's maiden name was
Trap and she married Blackman at
Leavenworth. He was barber.
When her official term expired they
moved to Topeka, and since then she
has been setting type in the Office of
E. H Snow and Blackman has been
working at the barber trade in the Put
man shop, beneath the Central Ma

A good many people doubtless know
Mrs. Blackman by sight without know

seen on the streets alone on a bicycle.
She is a small woman and generally
dresses in gray
