FREEMAN In
Federal Prisoner Who Is Enshrouded
in Mystery.

Henry Freeman, a federal prisoner
who has been confined in jail at Wich-
ita, was brought to Topeka last night
by an order of the court and confined
in the Shawnee county jail
Freeman is the man who will have a
trial in April on the charge of using
the United States mails Illegally and
who may have to answer for the muir
der of Fred Kenney.
In August, 1900, Fred Kenney started
with a team of horses and a wagon and
leading a team of mules, to go west to
work in the harvest fields. 1t is alleged
that Freeman, who is known by sew
eral aliases, fell in with Kenney while
he was en- route, and later sold Ken
ney'S outfit. Nothing has ever been
heard or seen of Kenney by his parents
or relatives since that time.
Freeman's story is to the effect that
shortly after ne Joined Kenney, Ken
ney manufactured some whisky which
he sold to some and that it
made them sick He says Kenney then
skipped out, telling him to sell the. out
fit, which he Gid. He claims that he
afterward met Kenney in Salina and
turned over to him the money he re-
ceived for the outfit.
Later Freeman turned up in Wichita
under an assumed name and endeav-
ored to secure $500 from Kenney's par
entS on the pretext that Kenney was
in Jail and that for the sum of $500 he
would furnish Information that would
enable them to locate the missing man.
The correspondence was carried on un-
der assumed names, and the case was
put in the hands of a government post
office inspector, who worked up the evil
dence gains Freeman.

THE HYGIENE OF OLD AGE.

We look upon the aged with good
reason as having a slender hold upon
life, one that may be loosened by a
slight shock of injury or disease which,
in the young or middle-aged, would
serve only as a stimulus to the repara-
tive vital powers. This is a conserva-
tive belief, for it warns US to shield our
loved ones, who have fought the fight,
from all influences which might shorten
their stay with US But we must not
go too far in our solicitude. for injury
may be inflicted and life shortened by
coddling the old, almost as surely as
by coddling the young. The vital pro-
cesses in the aged are slow, but they
are still existent, and they may be kept
active by gentle opposition and slim
~ulation, just as they may be increased
in childhood and youth by rough meth

lily Insane.

Spiritualism is responsible for the
temporary insanity of Mrs.James Curry
whose home is II miles in the country
from Topeka but who is now at the
home of Mrs. Susan M. Curry at No. S35
Jefferson street.
Mrs. Curry's mind has been wander
ing for a period of ten days. She is the
mother of six children. the youngest of
whom is but three months old, and for
this eason and the act that inadequate
care could be given her at her home in
the country, she was brought to the city
Wednesday.
Only once during her insanity has she
become violent. That occurred Tuesday
night, and it was only after a struggle
in which James Curry. her husband,
succeeded in tying her to her bed, that
she was quieted.
She was brought to Topeka Wednes-
day and placed under the care of a doc
tor. She rested well last night, sleeping
nearly all the night. Doctor c.. f. Men
ninger today announced that he believ-
ed she would recover.

Members of Everett Syndicate and
Detroit Capitalists Confer.

Several conferences were held in
Cleveland Monday between members
of the Everett syndicate and Detroit
capitalists interested in suburban rail
roads. As result of the conferences
it was decided to begin work on the
Detroit & Toledo Shore Line road at
once. The distance between Detroit
and Toledo is sixty miles, and it is
the purpose of the Everett Moore syn
dicate to have an air line, almost en-
trely over private righr-of-way.
The road, it is declared, will be the
finest ballasted and best equipped in
the United States. A schedule of fifty
miles per hour will be maintained, and
the cars will complete the distance
between the two points in one hour
and ten minutes. For the first time in
this country, an electric suburban rail
road will enter into direct competition
with the steam railroads. 1t is the in
tention of the Everett Moore syndicate
to run faster trains and cheaper trains
than the Lake Shore railway. The fare
will be about half what it is on the
Lake Shore line between Toledo and
Detroit and there will be the additional
advantage of one train each hour
on the electric line. The new line
will have certain designated stops,
but will endeavor to maintain the
fifty miles per hour schedule, including
the stops, 1t is the intention of the
new road to take care of freight as
well as passengers, and freight will
be rushed through at express speed.
The outcome of this fight against the
powerful Lake Shore company will
be watched with much interest.
