plest phrase, the note unsigned, but so expressed that she felt it's sincerity could not be ouestioned; and then, hug ried'y pinning on her hat and seizinsSs her purse, she flew down the stairs. She could not wait for the girls mes sage to bring the man to her; she would go to the laundry herself.
 Hop Sing, squirting water through his teeth upon pile of rough-dried clothes heaped up on table before hiin, looked up with the mechanical smile of his kind as the young lady ali- peared in the, doorway.

 There could be no question that the Gcllar was almighty to the mind of Hop Sing. The sight of it was as | galvanic touch, sending slin at q huT- ried shuff1c to back door. There was q brief cac.1l:ng conference. as the end of which a smiling colleague appeared. his face creased i- blandest smiles, lis knowledge of English equal to the oc- casion. And when Dorothy returned 10 the hotel a moment later it was to see him trottingl before her up the street. while she had the satisfying l.nowl- edge that her wsifn Ing went safely hid den in his sleeve to be ill Harvey Ne;i's hands within the hour.

true. He had TO heart, no feeling: if he had, he could not have smiled in passive consent to such an iniquitous scheme as that McCready had unfolded that afternoon; he must have felt the shame of it. Thank Heaven, she had rot iin- 'neritcd his tcEreramcnt. Il was to be moral monstrosity, one of natures most pitiabIe freaks
 She had worked herself into such passion that she seemed hardly capable of coherent thought. Suddenly reafiz ing that this would not do, she seated herself by the window, :;teadily gag ing out at tie flame fringed clouds rim ming the western hills. She must be action of some sort appeared to her in evitable. The idea of appealing to her father she inpatiently abandoned us useless. Far rather would she get warning to Neil himself; but where was the messenger who would serve her purpose without danger of betrayal? Could she wait until her father had re- tired for the night and go herself? Two miles of lonely mountain climbing might have seemed a startling proposi- tion at another time; but now, in her intense preoccupation, she had not q thought for her own safety, scarcely even for the conventionaiities to be vi plated in such an enterprise. At first, though, it seemed the simplest, surest way; and she only faltered, thinking what she might say if brought face to face with Harvey Neil, how to express her warning without too darlzly reflect ing upon her fathers connection with the matter, while there was the more Neil's thought of her coming. It nigh. imply-too much! And then, worse ] than all else, she might, after all, betoo late. The night shift went on at II o'clock Some other plan must be de vIsed; but what could she do? Despair
 ingly she wrung her hands as she looked up at the hills now growing dark in the 'shadow-''the hills whence coneth my help" The words came t5 her mind, as vagrant thoughts slip in but half recognized, in moments oi keen excitement; and she repeated them over with vague sense of com. fort, until gradually their meaning seemed luminous. Ah, there must be
 help! God could not mean that she was
 to sit helpless while that great wrong
 was being perpetrated. He would show her the way!
 And moment later her faith seemed strangely justified in chance remark
 of the servant who brought her supper
 That Chinaman was up for your pa s
 wash this afternoon the girl observed,
 pausing for brief enjoyment of the quid of chewing-gum ;n her mouth, as she
 leisurely disposed the tray upon table. But you was out, 'n' so I told him he
 must come again
 'Oh, yes; the Chinaman. Tell him 10 come right up, please" Dorothy ex- claimed, ready to clap her hands for joy at this solution of the dilemma. HoI Sing might be trusted with a note; 3 carrier pigeon could not be more un-

MR.. EASTMAN WIrHDRAws.
g a. R. Commander Says He Will
Not Accent a State Office.

Wichita. Dec. I'D. w Eastman of
EmpOria, who was here last week with
some redhot arguments for the office
of insurance superintendent, has come
out in the following interview, declaring
he wants nothing:
Il have determined not to apply for
any appointive position under Governor
Stan1ey'S administration. There are at
present about six good applicants for
every position. Five of them must be
disappointed. Because so many of these
applicants of positions are friends of
mine J. have decided to withdraw my
name and not disturb them by being in
their way. Some time ago L made an
application for a federal appointment
and was indOrsed by Senator Baker and
our Republican congressman, besides
many prominent men over the state. At
one time you may remember that my
name was mentioned for consul to Bel
gium, later to Egypt. It certainly looks
after the splendid record that Kansas
made in the last election, that the presi-
dent will recognize Kansas and do more
for her than in the past. Many of the
congressman ELECT are my personal
friends and will, I believe, favor my ap-
pointment to a federal position when
the time comes. I hope to get some
thing in the new possessions that the
United States has lately acquired. In
taking this course, would not step on
the toes of anyone. My stepping out
will give an opportunity for one more of
my comrades to have a state appoint
ment. SO that you can state that I
will not be a candidate for any position,
either insurance or any other place in
the state.'

WERE THEY RUNNINGAWAY
An Extremely Youthful Couple Ar
rested by the Police.

you'll have to come to the station
with me-" said Patrolman Frank Par
cells to a young couple in the waiting
room of the Rock Island depot Satur-
day afternoon. He had been watching
for them for three days and had about
decided that he would not find them
when he discovered them cooling away
just as two runaway lovers should
what for?" they answered almost IN
the same breath.
What for, indeed"-the policeman
studied. He really didn't know what
law or ordinance they had broken.
What is the charge?" SAID the younS
man with the air of a man who was
ready to defend his lady love against
the world and the Topeka police force.
why, your names Agnes Corwick.
isn't it?" said the officer addressing the
young lady
No" said the young lady
That statement seemed to stop fur
ther procedure, but to be on the safe
subject the couple to rigid cross-ex-
animation.
"Where do you Iive?'
Greenwood avenue, PotWin," an
swered the young man.
Didn't you come here to set mar
ried?"
''WelI. I will have to take you to the
station, anyway"
They were both very indignant. They
would not go to the station. The Off
anger swelling in their romantic breasts
the couple accompanied the officer to the
station.
There Chief Strauss questioned the
runaways. They were surprised at the
idea of their being married. The chief
talked pleasantly to them for a few
minutes and finally said to the young
lady: your name is Agnes CorwicH,
isn't it?''
YES" she answered.

eyes"
From Horton?"
Andrew Corwick is your father and
is employed in the shops at Horton?"
t'Yes''
''WeI. what's that got to do with it?''
inquired the young man.
well, your names Bert Sedan isn't
yes"
''WelI. then you're wanted for running
away to get married." said the chief
But we're not going to get married. -
said the young man.
He gave his home as Kansas City and
said he was 1S years old. He explained
that Miss Corwick's mother was visiting
in Kansas City and that she had sent
him to Topeka to accompany Miss Cor
wick to Kansas City to meet her mother
and that he had no intention of getting
married, at least not right away. Miss
Corwick said she had not been treated
right at home and had decided to run
away.
The young man could not be held for
a runaway and he was allowed to 60
but Miss Corwic6 had to spend the
night in the Women'S ward at the city
jail. Her mother was notified that her
daughter was here and yesterday she
arrived and took the girl to Kansas City
with her.

PRUNING KNIFE
Is to Be Applied With Merciless
Hand
To State Boards and SO-CalIed
Useless Offices.
BY THE POPULISTS
When They Assemble In Special
Session This Week.
No Incoming Party Has the
Nerve to "Clean House,

The special session of the legislature
which will convene Wednesday after
noon promises to be a record breaker
in the direction of Office adjustment
The session will last until Governor
Leedy retires from office January at
high noon.'' The regular session will
begin at noon on the following day,
January 10.
Bills to abolish numerous offices are
already in course of preparation.
Among the offices which the Populists
are likely to take away from the Re
publicans is the membership of the state
live stock sanitary commission. A meas
ure to abolish the board which has
three members will be presented and
it will provide for the re-establishment
of the office of state veterinarian.
Another bill will abolish the state
board of pardOns while another will re-
peal the metropolitan police law.
1t is proposed to abolish the office OF
state labor commissioner and cOnsOH-
date the department with the state
board of agriculture, adding the work
to that of Secretary T. D. COburn.
Representative G. w. Fairchild will
present a concurrent resolution calling
for an amendment to the constitution
providing for the election of the state
printer by a direct vote Of the people.
This proposition would be voted upon
at the next general election and Mr..
Fairchild thinks it is a popular idea
and believes that the legislature will
adopt it, Ratification of the proposition
by the people at an election would be
necessary before it would become effec-
tive. Mr.. FairchiId thinks the printer
should be elected by the people and paid
a reasonable salary and that the print
ing plant should be owned by the state
and that the state should print its own
school books instead of creating, as he
says, "a monopoly of that business in
the hands of private Individuals
Justice S. H. Allen of the supreme
court Attorney General Boyle and ex-
Chief Justice David Martin will con-
stitute the third house and they will
pass upon the legality of all bills pre-
sented in either house for passage. They
are now in charsss of the railroad bill
and are being assisted by Representa-
tive Fairchild and General r. G. Brad
shaw of this city.
These men held a caucus Saturday af-
ternoon and each of them made it his
personal business to see incoming mem
bers of the legislature for the purpose of
further conference today. This after
noon, late, all of the members who are
in the city and the members of the state
administration will confer with refer
ence to the proposed legislation. The
no man will get the credit for it's pass
age. It will be a caucus measure and
the caucus will bind both bodies, al
though the railroad bill will likely be
prepared under the direction of com
mittees chosen from both the senate
and the house.
There has been some talk among the
Republicans about flibustering. Should
the Republicans indulge in refractory
tactics during the special session it is
said Speaker Street will refuse them
recognition.
