thought had been stored there.
This time Mrs Nation was arrest.
ed by the county authorities, and
was taken to the Jail in a patrol
wagon.
1t was after noon before she
was released from Jail on bond,
and after taking dinner with
Sheriff Cook she went TO the first
Christian church, where she was
accosted by an officer with war
rant, and taken to the county jail
again. She stayed this time for
two hours, and finally her bond
was signed by one Of the Joint
keepers OF the city, a negro poll
tician.
The gathering Of the crusaders
at the state house grounds before
daylight was conducted with tho
utmost secrecy. Very few knew
about the intended raid, except
those going to take part in 1t. At
I 30 o'clock silent forms were hur-
rying across to the state house,
where sentinels of the army were
posted. These required each
conner to give an account of him.
self. Finally the army was
massed in the dark, dismal-corri-
dor under the east steps OF the
capitol building.
Two men came with great MIN
ing picks, and others had axes
and sledge hammers. The women,
who composed one-fifth of the
party, carried bright, new hatch
cts. At daybreak Mrs Nation,
who had oversight, and DR. Eva
Harding, with whom she stayed
that night, came running up.
"Get in line there, men and
women" Mrs Nation called. 1--WE

Aud they did, two by two, with
weapons in hand, Mrs NatioD,

the joint door leading toMurphy's
fashionable bar. Four policemen
stood guard and commanded the
people to stand back.

Forward came the battering
ram and the big plate glass win

fragments. Dozens of men then

with their axes and soon had the
doors and window frames cut

their efforts were expended in
vain. Out buildings we're smashed
in, but fruitlessly. most Of the
liquor having been removed to a
place of safety.
Then the crusaders adjourned
to the state house, where the
women wrathfully stamped the
mon as towards. This aroused
the latter and the crowd again
5terted off, but dispersed on the
advice of a minister who said the
9ntlre city was awake.
Meantime Mrs. Nation had
been released and led another
crowd to livery stable. De-
spite protestations of the proprie-
tor she at last found in a little
back room of the office several
bar mirrors which she promptly
smashed. Picking up log of Il
chair she smashed them.
Mrs. Nation then led the way
to the Moser cold storage plant,
but got no further than the en-
gIne room when Sheriff Cook and
Chief Of Police Stahl came upon
the scene and placed her under
arrest.
This time she made quite a
scene and was taken to the
county Jail in the. patrol wagon.
This warrant charged her with
breakidg lock. It had been
sworn out by the proprletors in
anticipation of raid, had re-
moved the liquor.

started for the center of the city
she was confronted with q third
arrest, this time on q warrant for

Mrs. Nation said she was going
to remain here in Topeka until
after the city election so she
could help in the election of
mayor.
The meeting then adopted q
resolution protesting against the

Sunday in Topeka today, and
as - result the capital city has
experienced more genuine ex-
.citement than can be remem-
bered by the oldest inhabitants,
Mrs Nation literally cram
med the day with thrilling
episodes. She succeeded in
having the contents of no
torious joint smashed, broke
into cold storage plant where
a number of fine bars had been
stored away for safety, and de-
molished them, addressed a
large mass meeting of men and
women, and was arrested four
times.
The last time that the law
laid its hands upon her was
when Mrs. Nation emerged from
the church where the mass
meeting had been held.
To night Mrs. Nation an
nounces that she will begin to-
morrow where she left off today,
and will not rest until all the
joints in Topeka have been
closed.
This morning at 6 o'clock.
just as the big bell on the
Church of the Assumption
tower was striking the hour,
Mrs. Nation sailed forth from
the State house grounds at the
head of 500 men and women, all
armed with hatchets and axes
and moved on the joints of the
city. Nobody but Mrs. Nation
knew what plans she had laid
In the crowd were large

burn college, some Of the min

The company marched silent

grounds, down Kansas avenue,
to Jhe place on East Seventh
street, kept by Ed Murphy ,
where the work of demolition
began. Mrs. Nation, brandish-
ing a new hatchet, headed the
onslaught, uttering words of
depreciation against the Joint
keepers as she sent her weapon
through the first plate glass
window at hand. Others fol
lowed her lead quickly.
Amid the shouts of the crusa-
ders and the commands of the
police present, trying to protect
the property, glass went crash

EIKt the door was smashed in
