WILL WORK TOGETHER.
Opponents of City Hall to Aban-
don Legal Proceedings.

The North Topeka residents who have
opposed the city hall proposition met
Wednesday evening in the Office of c.
c. Clemens and decided to offer no
further opposition
The papers in the mandamus proceed
ings which were intended to follow the
writ allowed by Judge Hazen will not
be filed As soon as the result of the
election was known A. NJ Baird ask
ed to have his name Withdrawn. and
this in itself would make it necessary
to apply for new writ But instead OF
this no further action will be taken
IN consequence the mandamus pro-
ceedings will be dismissed in the dis
triCt court
J. 3. Billiard, who was present at the
meeting. said that he was willing to
proceed if anything more could be done
the ground already broken, but O1d
decision to allow the mandamus pro
ceedings TO be dismissed. however,
closes up all action so far taken
q. C Clemens. who has been the legal
side of the opposition, advised the First
ward residents to give up the fight He
said the majority of the people of To-
peka had shown themselves in favor of
the auditorium, and he did not believe
it advisable to further oppose the pro-
position.
The general sentiment at the close of
the meeting was to let the matter drop
for good. In this the First ward resi-
dents are showing good sense and Judg-
ment- North Topeka people appreciate
the need of an auditorium in Topeka
as we'll as the people living on the
south side. and the only difference has
been on the question of a site. The ma
JOrity of the people proved themselves
satisfied with the site selected by the
city council at the polls last Saturday,
and the sensible course for all citizens
OF Topeka is to abide by this decision
It is time now for the people of To-
peka to put their shoulders to the wheel
to make this city a better place In
ternaI strife would be fatal to the pro
gress of the city Let the experiences
which have attended the efforts to build
a new city hall be forgotten and let
every one think only of the future
There is no reason why the people who
live south of the Kansas river should
harbOr any resentment against those
who live on the north side A true
friend of Topeka Will not attempt to
widen the breach which unfortunately
resulted from the city hall question but
will do all he can to heal it. Let Pro
gress" be the watchwOrd of all the peO-
pie of Topeka.

CROWNED HEROES
Wreath of Flowers Placed on
the Heads of Volunteers.
Great Ovation rendered the
Regiment at Denver.

Denver. Sept.14-The Colorado volun-
teers We're welcomed home on their re-
turn to the states capital today with
a demonstration that atOned for the
lack of enthusiasm manifested when
the regiment departed from this city
on May Il, 1898, on its long journey to
the Philippines. Bells, whistles, guns
cannon and horns began sounding a
noisy welcome when the soldiers free
train reached the union depot at 10
o'clock. After receiving the greetings
of relatives the volunteers fell in line
and were escorted by a procession to
the capitol through the street lined
with masses of people waving flags and
shouting cheers
All the heroes of the Philippine cam
paign were crowned with wreaths of
mountain holly and their pathway was
strewn with flowers by hundreds of
young girls. Public and private build
ings were handsomely decorated. On
the capitol grounds We're assembled
thousands of school children who sang
America in chorus.
An address of welcome was delivered
by Governor Thomas. who presented
new flag TO the regiment. Colonel H.
B Mccoy made an appropriate re-
spOnse.
Addresses of welcome on part of the
nation were delivered by United States
Senators WOIcOtt and Teller. to which
response was made by Brig Gen. Irv-
ing Hale.
A banquet was served for the volun-
teers and during the remainder of the
day they enjoyed the freedom of the
town.

Col. MeteaIf Cables Washington
to That Effect.
HIS MEN NO KICKERS.
He Says They Are No Worse Off
Than Others Have Beens
Trouble Was Caused by Dis
charged Regulars on Board.

Washington. Sept 14-Clearanee pa
pers have been allowed the Tartar at
Hong Kong. 1t is expected that she
VIII proceed to the United States at
once. The information that clearance
had been allowed came in a dispatch To
Adjutant General Corbin this morning
from Col Metcalf commanding the
Twentieth Kansas and the troops
aboard the transport
It is supposed that clearance papers
were allowed upon the suggestion of
the British foreign Office to the British
governor Hong Kong thatit would be
unwise to interfere with American
transports.
Another dispatch from Col. Metcalf
in reply to one sent yesterday states
that the Tartar was no more over
crowded and that the food was no
worse than on other transports leaving
Manila. He said that the trouble arose
among the discharged regular soldiers
who were returning home on board the
ship.
