CITY COURT BILL
Renders McKeever's Police Court Bill
Valueless.

The Topeka city court bill was among
those which were railroaded through
the house today. The bills were read
during the noon hour while members
were away at dinner.
Mr.. McKeever's bill to give the To-
peka police court jurisdiction to hear
preliminary examinations was in the
list to be raflroaded. but was objected to
on the ground that it needed amend
ing and was kept on the calendar for
the present. Mr.. McKeever afterwards
had it stricken from the calendar mas

the justices courts and cover the ground
of the other bill.
The city court bill provides for
Judge at s., 800 year, a clerk at 1920, a
marshal at s72O. and a deputy marshal
al $500. These offices, except clerk, are

over. When it was called up today Mr..
F'ogle demanded a roll call, and the

The picture is handled in a bold but
attractive and altogether artistic man
ner. Miss Kraph has drawn the pic
ture with such soft lines and shadings
that many, on first notice, believe the
picture to be a print.
Miss Kraph has been studying art
for five years, but has already received
commissions for several portraits and
is generally to be found busy with her
palette and brush.
