A THOUSAND MORE SALES
Reported by the Druggists Than for
the Previous Month.

Liquor sales reported by the Topeka
druggists during the month of Nav ag-
gregate 3,637, or 1,013 more sales than
were made during the month of April.
In April "a druggists reported 1924 Ho-
uor sales, while the sales of Sc druggists
last month reach the number of 8 3637
The partial closing of joints in Topeka
may have had something to do with
the increased sale of liquor by the drug
gists, or possibly certain druggists are
more careful in reporting sales made
since the circular letter of Probate
Judge DOlnan reached them
The greatest number of sales is re-
ported by F. A. Snow & Co. and the
smallest number by Chas. F. Payne

BILL HACKNEY
To Run For Lieutenant Cover
nor of Ohio.

'BilP' Hackney, who now lives in
Cleveland, o., may be the Democratic
nominee of the Democratic party of
that state for lieutenant governor.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer in a two
column review of the Democratic sit
uatlon places w. P. Hackney in the list
OF aspirants and hints that he may be
nominated
When Mr.. Hackney lived in Kansas
ne was a Republican and served in the
senate as Republican, but during the
latter part of his residence at Winfield
ne began to be trif1e off color from an
ultra Republican standpoint. He moved
TO Cleveland and had little to do with
politics for some time, but last year he
bIossomed out as an avowed Bryan
man and classed himself as a silver
Republican. 1t is his prominence as a
SILVER Republican that is bringing him
to the front in Democratic politics. be-
cause the Democrats are figuring on
holding the silver Republican votes.
In speaking of the candidacy of a
Cleveland Democrat for governor and
the opposition to the candidate, the
Plain Dealer says:
1t is we'll known that Tom l. John
son wants to be chairman of the dele
cation for the alleged purpose of so
manipulating the votes as to secure
for hiuSelf backing for the United
states Se1ate. He will use his power
if he succeeds to prevent Mclean from
gaining any prestige.
"On the other hand it is not likely
that Mr.. Farley and his friends will
passively submit to Mr.. Johnson run
ming things, and it is said that while
opposed to Judge Noble and in favor of
sending an Unpledged delegation so
far as it relates to the gubernatorial
nomination, they may take a stand for
a Cleveland man for lieutenant govern
or. They will do this for two reasons.
First, they do not want to appear in
the role of opposing a Cleveland man
for a place on the ticket; and second.
the man they have selected, ex-senator
w. p. Hackney, is a. silver Republican
and would give them the backing of
that element in the county. Mr.. Hack
ney was a Republican up to last fall,
when he bOlted the ticket and came out
for Bryan and silver He has, it is
said, a strong following in addition to
the strength of the Farleyites and it
is not improbable that his name will be
presented to the county convention for
Endorsement.
AT least tie above was the talk yes
terday among prominent Democratic
politicians and the announcement adds
a new feature to an already interesting
fight

SHOT AND BURNED.
Thieves Horribly Murder the
Man Set to Watch Them.

Sterling, Ill, June 2.-Robbed, muir
dered and cremated. That tells the
awful fate of George Kaufman. He
stood guard over his fathers granary
to protect it from thieves, who killed
him at his post and sought to wipe out
the evidence of their fendish cruelty
by fire
Today all there remains of him is
corpse, with its throat cut. its skull
crushed and its head bullet-pierced, a
charred lump of flesh.
There is no cIew to the murderers
who committed the crime. Bloodhounds
are upon the trail.
George Kaufman was the son of To-
bias Kaufman, prosperous farmer
living about five miles north of Ster-
ling. He is % years old.
Farmer Kaufman has two dwelling
houses with about quarter of a mile
between them. He left his old home
for his present dwelling about a year
ago, but continued to use some of the
buildings attached to the former resi-
dence.
Lately Kaufman discovered that
thieves were raiding his granary Iocat-
ed near the old residence. He asked
his son George to take up his night
quarters in the deserted home and
watch for the plunderers.
George Kaufman began his vigils two
weeks ago. He was unsuccessful I'D
regularly went back to the other house
for his breakfast.
Tuesday morning he did not come at
the usual hour. The family waited
some time without concern. Then his
father became alarmed and started for
the old house to investigate, accOmpa-
MED by Charles Schrader, the hired
man. They went to the house first
but there was no trace of the young
man. They saw and scented the straw
stack, which had been nearly burned
down and was still smOuldering, and
went to examine it.
They were Mortified to find on the top
of the smoking stack the partially
burned body of young Kaufman, with
the clothing all consumed.
Several persons in the neighborhood
are under suspicion, but there is no
evidence to warrant their arrest.

FESTIVAL LAWN FETE.
One Will be Given on Mrs. Sutton's
Grounds to Raise Funds

Mrs. c. S. Sutton has arranged to
give a lawn social on the spacious lawn
surrounding her residence on Topeka
avenue on Friday and Saturday even
ings of this week for the benefit of the
Floral fund of the Fall Festival. There
will practically be no expense attached
to the affair, and it is hoped to realize
a considerable amount with which to
start the arrangements of the Flower
parade of next fall.
The lawn will be hung with japanese
lanterns. Strawberries, ice cream and,
cake will be served by a number of So
ciety young ladies. In the rear of the
lawn tent will be erected for the use
of a gypsy fortune teller, imported for
the occasion, and here patrons of the
social may have their future unveiled
at the small sum of 10 cents an ''un-
yelling"
A lawn social with a fortune telling
attachment is something of a unique
evening entertainment, and the purpose
for which it is given is alone sufficient
reason for liberal patronage. All To-
peka people who are interested in see
ing a floral display even more beautiful
than the display made last year, should
aid in making the lawn social a finan-
cial success.

STREETS TO BE CLEANED.
The White Wings Begin Work But
Uniforms Too Small.

The little push carts and bag carriers
are on the streets today for the first
time. There are four of them. one in
North Topeka and three on the south
side. and Street Commissions. Ramsey
has it figured that four carts will be
sufficient to keep the asphalt pave
ments free from dirt and refuse.
Four uniforms were ordered with the
carts, but when the men assigned to
duty came to try on the uniforms they
were found to be too small with a sin
gle exception The man who takes
care of the east side of Kansas avenue
between Sixth and Eighth wears a
white duck suit and white helmet but
the rest of the force will have to wait
until the new uniforms arrive
The sacks which are carried on the
carts are filed and wheeled into the
alleys, where they are gathered up by
the street force. The sack is replaced
with an empty one and the work is
continued
The wagon which has been used on
the streets to clean up the cutters and
gather up the sweepings has been
a abandoned.
