LEAHY's BRoGUE Is CoMPLIMENTED
At Topeka the Newspapers Call it a Charm
and Delight.

The Topeka Mail and Breeze saws:
Dave Leahy, the new Topeka cores
pendent Of the Kansas City Times. is
about the most interesting personality
among the newspaper fraternity of ths
capital city. He was born About forty
one years ago in Tipperrary county, Ire
land, and is the descendant Of an Irish
nObleman. He came 10 America when a
boy Of twenty with several thousand dol
lars and 70 experience. In a year he
had contributed his cash to the circulat-
ing per capita and had acquired some ex-
perience. How he happened to drift in
to the newspaper business we do not
know, but ne soor showed a development
that amounted 10 genius. Some of his
stories have been denominated by the ig
norant and unappreciative as flakes"
whereas they rose to the dignity of we'll
wrought romance high order or fiction
Some writer's of fiction are so clumsy in
their style that the most Impractical eye
can detect the unreasonableness Of the
statement, but with Dave Leahy there is
an attention to details and apparent can
dor OF statement that would deceive the
Elder Pinkerton. WhsE he told the sor-
rowful story OF an unfortunate child in
western Kansas that fell seventy-five
feet into a bored well and there remained
for a period of six days, it caused SEN
sati6n among the tender-hearted from
ocean to ocean. His story of the unfor-
tunate Frenchman who was held as a
hostage in an Oklahoma cave by a band
of negroes and fed on wild oniors and
gypsum water pending the detention of
John Waller in a French prison, stirred
the ruling powers Of the French republic,
ard was the occasion for an extended
diplomatic correspondence between the
United States and France. His last
story, about an unfortunate brother and
sister, who had been separated in infan-
cy. afterward meeting by chance, falling
in love with each other, marrying, living
happy welded life for thirty-five years
and raising a family of seventeen deaf
and dumb children finally by accident
finding out their relationship during
family REUNION at their home in Null
vane, Kan, is still going the rounds of
the plate syndicates. Dave is ar excep-
tionaly handsome Irishman. with a head
that requires a number eight hat and a
brogue that is charm and a delight"

Of the right femur AT the hip joint. She
was put in wagon belonging TO the

hay. The patrol wagon was called, but
the other conveyance was considered
the best TO convey her TO her home, at
