Observation-Disclosures Pars
AIDED ON First Page.

Topeka, Kan, March 13.-(By Asso-
ciated PreSs.)-The first issue Of the
Sheldon edition of the Topeka Capital
went to press at 2:37 O'Clock this
morning, twenty-threeyminutes earlier
than the usual tiIie.. Sheldon stayed in
the Office until the press started and
carried home with him the, first CON-.
of the paper. All tie mails.were
caught and the press was kept run-
ming until about noon today, printing
something over 100000 copies. The
rest of the edition will be printed in
Chicago and New York, for which
matrices will be sent daily. The man
agement of the paper says the mailing
list and city circulation now contain
100000 copies and that fresh orders
are coming by every mail twenty-five
Thousand being received yesterday.
The new journalistic Moses is MAX
ing the test fairly and squarely. No
challenge has been thrown down to
him than he has not accepted. His
departure from the accepted methods
and rules of journalism is radical.
News is buried in the background; spe-
cial articles intended to benefit man
kind, body and soul, occupy the places
of honor on the front page under
s'scare" heads.
First on the first page is a prayer,
written for the occasion by Bishop
Vincent.
First, Famine IN India.
The first head on the first page deals
with famine in India, and sandwiched
in between the head and what Mr..
Sheldon regards as the news is an ed
itorial appeal for aid. The head fol.
lows:
STARVING INDIA.
Fifty Million People Affected by the
Famine.
Conditions Growing Worse Instead OF
Better-The Urgent Need of Aid
From Christian America.
The famine story is introduced by
this statement:
..The Capital knows of no more i'm
portant matter of news the world over
than the pitiable condition of famine
stieken India. We give the latest avail
able information of the progress of
the story in the following articles"
Here follows statements from the
Rev. J..E. Abbott of the Bombay mis-
sion, and Lord Curzon, viceroy of In
dia.
Second, warSa Disease.
The second head On the first page

WHAT is A TORNADO7

What is a Tornado? is the question you
will hear ~
Asked by every one you meet at this time
of the year.
1t seems so awful stupid, that often feel
inclined
To Cyclone with my intellect the whirl-
wind of their mind.
Now, a full-grown Tornado, it is very
seldom seen.
1t leaves its tracks behind it, and you
know where it has been.
1t comes so very sudden, and as quickly
doth depart,
That its coming and its going is impress
ed upon your heart.
Now, I've told you all about it, there is
nothing more to know.

ley's sure to show

wind on the side,

A missionary was sent to convert

represented the most potential politicians
in the Democratic party-those who could
have given him the nomination if he
would have consented to few-line senti-
ments and glttering generalities. Ii
Dewey had consented at Manila to be a
Democratic candidate he would un-
questionably have been the candidate.
He would have been an imperialist some
thing like; an imperialist wouldn't have
hurt the Democrats bit. The Demo-
cratic party wouldn't have cared a rap
about imperialism nor about silver at IL

gone In on the heroics. They would have
celebrated conqueror as their cand-

up and happy to support a man who had
shed blood, conquered territory and sur
rounded the world with his glories. That
is what the Democracy wanted.-Murat
