TO FIND JOBS FOR THEM
Kansas Employment Agency About
Ready for Work

Topeka, Kan, April9. It. B. Gerow
of Atchison, the newly appointed di-
rector of free employment agencies,
was in Topeka today to take prelimi-
nary steps to the fulfillment of the law
passed by the legislature. Mr.. Gerow
could not say how soon the system
will be under way or in just what way
it would be organized. He is juror
at the federal court sitting in the SEN
ate chamber this week. He intends to
go down to Kansas City at once and
confer with the labor employing de-
partment in Missouri to familiarize
himself with existing gmethods.
1t is anticipated this spring that in
this state more trouble will be had to
find men to fill places than to find
places for men. Applications are
already coming in from farmers who
fear that harvest hands will be scarce.
Last year the governor on his own
motion established state agency to
help the farmers out and it was a
great success.

Says Wheat Never Made
a More Favorable Show
ing this time Of Year
CONDITIONS 99.S PER GENT
Acreage Seven Per Cent Lar
ger than Last Year
Allen County Reports Some
Slight Damage from the
Hessian Fly

Topeka, April 10-The State Board
of Agriculture today issued its first
crop bulletin of the year, devoted to
information about the growing wheat
and says:
1.-THE abundant rain and snowfall
for several weeks past have, with the
favorable circumstances preceding,
made the winter wheat prospect in
Kansas one of the most generally
promising the State has ever known
at the time of year, while the soil con-
ditions could scarcely be more favor
able to vigorous development. The
evenness of stand and unusual root
hold, from strong growth in the fall ,
and mild winter, have on the whole
probably never been surpassed on so
large an area.
with the exception of slight dam
age by Hessian fly in a few localities,
the extent of which cannot yet be def
nitely ascertained, the reports indi-
cate strongly the absence of any con-
siderable injury, and state of az
fairs that should satisfy the most ex-
acting.
1.-THE area sown for the crop of 1900
was 4, 26S, 704 acres. The Boards cor
respondents last December estimated
the area sown for the present years
crop as seven per cent greater. The
present average condition reported for
all this is 99.S, or, better than the high
average of one year ago.
''Twenty-nine counties, having sew
enty-fve per cent of the wheat acreage
show an average condition of 100.
F'fty-seven counties with % per cent
of the standing growth, practically
the wheat field of Kansas, show the
average condition as 999. The total
wheat area in the remaining As coun,
ties aggregates less than the acreage
in Barton county alone.
"Allen county reports slight dam
age by fly, but none of the sowing
will be plowed up; prospects very ia
vorable. Condition94." A"
The soil of the State as a whole wa.
probably never more generously sat
urated with moisture at a similar date
than now. In fact in large portion The
work of spring is being rather retard
ed by wet soil, rains and melting
snows-a condition of affairs, how
ever, which Kansan never enters OF
the debit side of his ledger. Follow
ing a few days of sunshine Kansa:
fields will be alive with plows ant
corn. planters, under conditions never
surpassed in promise.

Funston as a Dancer.

Funston cannot two-step. Somebody
ought to telegraph that to Sampson and
Corbin.-Kansas City World
1t is true that Funston left school
before the twe-step came in, but he
dances the waltz with an energy and
devotion that ought to compensate.
He confesses himself that it took more
brain work and hard grinding to
learn the foot part of dancing than
anything he ever tackled. But when
he learned he was an enthusiast. Out
in the wilds of Colorado, where he
was roughing it with gang of coll
lege students, dance was arranged
at the hotel. Funston, like the others,
had only heavy, hob-nailed shoes.
First he tried dancing in rubbers and
finding this a fizzle, wrapped all the
handkerchiefs he could find about his
shoe soles and essayed the dance
again. 1t was hard work and very
graceless, but he stayed with it until
everybody else was ready to quit.

An Expensive Runaway.

Readicker & Pruitt's delivery team
seems now to hold the record for do
ing the most damage to property in a
runaway without iniuring themselves.
The team started yesterday from
the barn back of j. S. McClain's old
residence att the corner of East and
Sycamore and ran south. 1t took in a
guy wire that supports the telephone
poles on the corner and snapped the
several strands and let the pole lean
over. Then the team hiked north and
seeing a water plug in theway, bumped
into it and knocked it badly out of
plumb A few punches of paint we're

: KANSAS CLIPS and COMMENTS i


September 3, and 8 have been
chosen for the 20th Kansas Reunion at
Ottawa.
Kansas men get there. A political
row in Omaha has unseated the old
police judge and put Bryce Crawford
a X. U. graduate in his chair.
Wellington has decided to raise
money by placing an occupation Ii
cense on druggists who take out
liquor permit of $1,000 year.
The youngest daughter of VIM Noll
of Eldorado was caught out in the
pasture by prairie fire which ran her
down and burned her to death.
Buckeye Bill, of Yates Center, is
the champion auctioneer. He started
one at , and closed at one day and
disposed of $4,000 worth of stuff.
The thrifty attendants at the Kansas
City, Kansas, pesthouse, have been
making money selling the clothing
which they confiscated from patients.
Cofleyville is to have new theatre
and dance hall that will seat 800 peo-
pie. Only time will tell how many
people can be squeezed in at dance
the building.
Estimates made on the acreage place
this years wheat crop at % per cent
higher than last, and there is already
talk of importing 10000 hands to help
harvest it.
An Independence girl refused to
visit the Cowboy w onder's show. He
is armless and does stunts with his
feet. She said armless men did not
interest her.
An Ottawa woman was placed in
terrible predicament. Her team ran
away, dragging her by her new dress
and it was case of life or her old
calico gown. She saved her life.
Chas. Jackson, who has been max
ing up the Neosho FallsPost for years
has jumped into the composing room
of the Chicago Tribune. And if he
don't get run over in the rush of the
first week he'll own it some day.
Speaking of land sharks: Mr.. A of
Cherryvale mentioned the fact that he
intended leaving town if he sold out.
A real estate man heard it, and told
Mr.. b. B actually bought A out with
out any farther parley and the agent
sued for $50 commission, compromis-
ing for $40.
A Sedan man lost the few friends he
had by arranging mechanical device
that continuously tapped on his show
window on April /. A curtain shaded
the lower part of the sash, but by
straining ones neck to look over one
was rewarded with sight of comic
face and the note: april fool"

Band Concert Sunday.

The first open air concert of the
season will be given next Sunday
afternoon at 2:30 if the weather per-
mits. Don't turn out if it is rainy,
windy or if the ground is wet. 1t is
our intention to give one concert each
week for six months if the subscrip-
tions will be sufficient to Justify the
enterprise.
The first four concerts will be given
on .Sunday afternoons. After that
when the weather is warmer they will
be given on some night during the
week, perhaps FRIDAY night. We are
in better shape this year than last and
we anticipate very successful season.
Among the valuable additions to the
membership might be mentioned Mr..
Shields on Solo Alto and Mr.. Wright
on Solo Cornet and Mr.. Sucher on
Tuba.
1t is our intentions to makethe band
a permanent institution and keep up
our practice during the winter months
instead of laying off as we did last
winter. Our solicitors are meeting
with fair success but have not yet suf-
flcent to pay the expenses of the con-
certs. There is little doubt, however,
but that the amount will be raised.
We have enough for tuition and room
rent but nothing as yet for the music
to be bought and acknowledgements.
The boys expect no pay for their SER
vices; their time and labor is donated
to the public. But please remember
that each overture or selection played
costs two dollars. Each march or
two-step costs fifty cents. There is
about $500 worth of music played at
every concert.

Smelter Furnace Cayed In.

A cavern occurred at Nicholson's
smelter Wednesday that entails loss
of about $500, besides the delay in
the construction of a new block.
Mr.. Nicholson has been pushing this
block for some time and the masons
had finished the brick arch under the
block and then while it was green
built the center wall pretty well upon
it. A short time after quitting work
the whole thing collapsed and men
were put to work yesterday tearing
it out Had the smash come sooner
there is little doubt that the workmen
would have been caught and seriously
if not fatally injured.

MAY SEND
COMMITTEE
Information is Received at
Washington that
Cuban Convention may Send
a Delegation to the
United States to
DISCUSS PLATT AMENDMENT
Their Visit Might Help Sc
cure its Adoption
Most Of the points now under
Discussion Could Prob
ably be Settled

Washington, April lO-Information
was received at the war department
today to the eifectthat the Cuban con-
stitutional convention contemplates
sending a committee here to consult
the President and Secretary of War
regarding the Platt amendment ~and
the relations of the United States with
Cuba. While it is known that the ad-
ministration would much prefer to
have the constitutional convention ac-
cept the Platt amendment instead of
sending such a commission, it would
rather the commission should visit
this country and discuss the subject
than that the Platt legislation should
be rejected. Flat rejection would
leave matters in strained condition.
The commission will visit this country
upon its own responsibility, as an in
vitation to come mightimply disposi-
tion upon the part of this government
to make concessions. Ithas been sug-
SSSVSu ludV SOluS VI Jll6 luOr6 FdulCdl
opponents of United States control be
members of the commission, in order
that they might ascertain definitely
what the situation is in the Uuited
States.
There has been some discussion as
to what such a commission can ac-
complish by coming to Washington.
TITS said for one thing that it can OBJ
tain definitely from the President and
Secretary of War a construction of
the Platt amendment. The third Sec
tion, relating to intervention, is the
one which meets with the greatest OBJ
jections from the Cubans, and it is be-
lieved the administration can convince
the delegation that there is nothin g
but the best of intention on the part OF
this government toward Cuba. The
requirement that Cubans shall adopt
substantially" the terms of the Plat
amendment also can be construed.
The delegation, it is said, will learn
that the Cubans can hopefor no modi.
fication of the law by Congress, and
that nothing can be accomplished by
waiting until another session.

A Surprised Constable.

In prodding around in the memories
of ''the Oldest inhabitants" for mater
ial for the. history of Allen county now
going through the press in the REGIS
TER office, great many interesting
and amusing episodes are turned up
that hardly reach the dignity of his
tory and are yet too good to be lost
altogether Here is one that Charlie
Knowlton, of Geneva, tells:
"Along in 1862 one George Stamps,
living in the southeast corner of &C.
neva township, shot and killed Mr..
Fitzsimmons. j. L. Christy and VIM.
Denney were detailed to arrest Stamps.
They went to his cabin aboutmidnight
and knowing the desperate character
of their man they planned to take him
by surprise. The cabin had only
one room and Christy knew that the
one bed was next TO the door. Denney
was to 90 to the rear of the cabin to
prevent escape that way, and Christy
was to make lunge against the door,
break it in and grab Stamps before he
could get out of the bed clothes and
get his shooting irons. They carried
out their plans to perfection. When
Jim Christys huge form went against
that door it flew clear across the room
and Jim landed on the bed, grabbing
tine inmates and bed clothes in one
close embrace, calling for Denney to
bring a light as he had their
prisoner. And the dreams of those
two brave men are disturbed yet by
the screams they heard when Denney
brought light and found that Jim
had captured two innocent women"

going to connect Neosho Falls with
the line running from that place to
lola, via Piqua, and then we can talk
to the county seat and some forty
other towns in southeastern Kansas
and western Missouri. To Post re-

ance that if the proper support was
given he would put in private sys-
TEN of phones here. We understand
that fifty phones would accomplish

Frankfort, April lin the Ripley
case today j, w. Ferguson, Ripley's
farm hand, testified that Ripley told
him that if Goebel was elected he would
never take the Office. VIM. Crawford
corroborated this. The railroad was
ordered to produce bills of lading
which are expected to show shipments
of arms from the Adjutapt General to
Ripley the day before the assassina-
tion. William Jones, colored, testi-
fed that he had hauled load of mill

WHO IS THE OWNER ?
Horse and Buggy Found Tied in the
Pasture of VIM. Stafford
Southeast of lola

William Stafford was in town We'd
nesday and reports a mysterious
little occurrence which had puzzled
him all day and which he cannot yet
explain.
Wednesday morning he found a
horse and buggy tied in his pasture
lot, not far from his house, two and a
half miles east and a mile south of
lola. The horse was tied to the fence
and was hitched to the buggy, in
which was hat and coat belonging
to man and also package of beef
steak. Nothing about the outfit, nor
any papers in the coat helps to ident-
ify the owner.
The pasture is not infrequently
crossed by people who use it as Il
short cut to Gas City and the family
remembers that on Tuesday evening
man driving rig of the same de-
scription passed by the house and
through the gate into the pasture, but
they thought he was doubtless going
to Gas City. Next morning they
found the rig as stated but not trace
of the man, and all day long nobody
appeared to claim the rig or explain
what the affair means. Mr.. Stafford
rather fears that the owner may have
made away with himself in violent
manner and wanted to let the relatives
know. AS it stands the whole thing
is mystery.
