TURNER'S CELEBRATE.
They Had Good Time and Gov.
Leedy Dances With Them.

To say that the Thirty-first anniver-
sary of the Topeka Turn Verein was fit
tingly celebrated last night would be
putting it mildly. The most elaborate
exercises since the big funniest three
years ago were given last evening at
Turner Garden.
Gov. Leedy, Ed Little and several of
the state officers were present and en-
joyed the festivities. Gov. Leedy danced
several times late in the evening with
the pretty girls The governor is a
pretty good dancer, at least that was
what the girls said who were fortunate
enough to be favored with an invita-
ton from him.
Ed Little stood about on the "side
lines'' and lent a quiet dignity for the
state.
The celebration was largely attended.
All the loyal Germans and their ladies
were present as were also many prom
inent citizens of Topeka. 1t was con-
genial crowd. They came to be enter
tanned, and they were entertained.
The athletic exhibitions were excel
lent, as Turner exhibitions usually are
The wand exercises by the ladies class
won the most hearty applause. The la
dies did credit to themselves and their
instructor. Miss Jane Nye was given
applause after an unique Indian club
swinging. MeSsrs. Abmeyer and Voeg-
tie fenced fiercely with each other, but
neither received a fatal stab. The SEN
iOr class in turning went through eX-
ercises which elected applause several
times, and two Turner's had pepper
box boxing bout of two rounds.
Music is the long suit of the Ger
mans, or, better, the Bohemians. Last
evening there was all kinds of music.
and all of it good. John Marshall and
his famous band played three numbers
and the Turner'S and their friends made
them give encores- John Sargent was
present as the guardian angel of the
band.
The Arion singing society, also the
Turner singing society sang songs of
Old Germany as only Germans can.
| Their voices blended well and Professor
Won Dahlen showed his talents as di-
rector. Tom Anderson's Modocs were
down for song, but as only five of
them attended the celebration, the num-
Der on the programme was dispensed
with, but Sherman ROwles sang two
its place.
When the exercises were over an at
tempt was made to clear the hall of
everything but people. But there were
people everywhere.
When Steinberg's orchestra began a
dreamy Strauss waltz the crowd surged
around the room. 1t was little crowd
ed, it is true, but everyone seemed to
enjoy the time. The dance was cOntin-
ued long into the night, and in the ear
ly hours of the morning the Thirtyfir
anniversary celebration of the Turner
society of Topeka at Turner hall came

BIGGEST DAY KNOWN.
Carnegie Gets Enough Orders in One
Day to Run q Year.

Pittsburg, Pa, Feb. 1.-THE collapse
of the rail pool has produced the heavi-

the Carnegie Steel company was kept
busy answering kilograms quoting
prices and booking orders, until at night
the largest number of orders ever
booked in one day had been noted and
accepted by the firm
The orders received by this firm yes

The Carnegie company quoted rails
at $3.50 early in the day and later cut
this to $17. This is a clean shave of

Thomas Page for Councilman.

A petition IS being circulated in the
First ward to request Thomas Page to
become an independent candidate for
councilman from that ward. The pa
per is being signed by men of all po-
itical parties, and the petition will
contain a large number of names when
it is presented to Mr.. Page. Since Coun-
Gilman Skinner has declined to be a
candidate for reelection, there has
been a general casting about for some
one to succeed him and the movement
started this week to bring out Mr..
Page will probably result in his can
didacy. 1t is believed that he would
have little or no opposition.

PARKHURST PROSECUTIONS
A Liquor Case Again Bobs Up In the
Police Court
Attorneys Made the Arguments in the
Schultz Case-No Result of the
Conference Yet Seen

A Parkhurst case bobbed up again in
Justice Morrison's court yesterday
morning, when arguments were made on
the evidence given in the trial of
Schultz for violating the liquor ordi-
nance. Schultz was tried about six
weeks ago and the arguments were de-
ferred until the appeal case in the su-
perior court had been decided.
l.. r. Scranton, for the prosecution, and
Jud r. Rush for the defense, argued the
case yesterday morning. Attorney Rush
sought to convince the court that there
were authorities to show that the Park
hurst investigators were accomplices and
as such could not confirm one anOther's
testimony.
Both attorneys made able arguments
and at their conclusion Justice Morrison
said he would take the matter under
advisement and would probably give his
decision today.
1t is yet an open question whether
more prosecutions of Parkhurst cases
will come. The conference between GER
tain retail liquor dealers and Rev. DIR.
Mclean. chairman of the investigating
committee, has as yet been without re-
suit The saloon men say that If the
existing laws can be enforced and no
one be permitted to violate them they
will be we'll satisfied: but if one or two
places can keep open after midnight,
others must do likewise or suffer.
The conference referred to- of which
extended mention was made in The Her
aid at the time, was quite informal and,
on the part of the saloon men, seems to
have been held only as a sort of "feeler"
to discover the intentions of the Park
hurst society, and the identity of the
liquor men in the committee is kept q
profound secret, at their request. The
liquor men proposed, it is said, that If
the Parkhurst society would drop the
prosecutions they would cooperate in
enforcing law requiring that all screens
and curtains of the saloons be so ar
ranged at midnight as to expose to view
from outside the entire interior of the
places This would enable Parkhurst
Investigators and others to see all they
want to see without trying to get in
side.
Some one raised the question of card
rooms in the rear, and the saloon men
Of the committee, speaking for them
selves alone and not for the lately
formed Retail Liquor Dealers associa-
tion, of which they are members, said
they would agree to close them also on
time and serve no liquor at all after
hours At the conclusion of the confer
ence held at Simpson tabernacle par
sonage it was said another meeting
would be held soon, but is has not yet
materialized.

ALL ABOUT A DOG.
Pet Animals Likely to Disrupt Neigh
borhood.

Deputy District Attorney James was
puzzled yesterday by a legal question
propounded to him as an authority.
Mrs. Starr visited him to ask If there
was any law against keeping a dog.
She was told that there was no statute
made and provided to prohibit the keep
ing of canine pets, though there were
some statutory regulations bearing on
the conduct of the brutes. Mrs. Starr
said her dog was harmless, cunning
little thing that was kept tied up in her
back yard to guard the chickens and
horses.
AS the dog is tied up he does all his
guarding by sound alone OF course he
barks, she said but that was no reason
why her next door neighbor should shy
a big dry bone at the poor thing. AS
there was even less provocation for the
neighbor being so poor a marksman
that he missed the dog altogether AMI
hit instead valuable horse in the neck.
with such violence that the horse died
of lockjaw.
Mrs. Starr says her neighbor has made
dreadful threats, and in her distress she
took her trouble to the district attorney.
Mr.. James gave Mrs. Starr some good
counsel which, If properly minded, will
save trouble in her neighborhood, and
she departed.
