VIGOROUS PROTEST
Comes From Arkansas City Over
Saloon License.

Arkansas City. Kan, July 22--The
Law and Order Legion of this city met
at the Methodist church in large num-
bers and passed the following resolu-
tons:
Whereas, A compromise has been
made whereby the joints are to be al
lowed to do business by the payment OF
monthly fines. and
Whereas, The running Of joints un-
der any conditions is a. violation of the
laws of the state of Kansas and con-
trary to the principles of this OrGani-
zation; therefore be it
Resolved, That this organization ex-
presses appointment and disappro-
baton at the mayor giving consent and
support to the collecting of revenue
from the joints, in view of the fact that
he was elected on an enforcement plat
form; and repeatedly made solemn
promises that he would stand by that
principle.
Resolved, That the Law and Order
legion hereby enters a vigorous protest
against any system of taxation, license
fees or fines whereby the joint business
may be continued.
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this organization that all persons en-
gagged in legitimate lines of business
should refuse to pay any occupation
tax so long as the joints are allowed to
run for revenue.
Several business men present declared
they would pay no occupation tax as
long as the joints paid license.

neck and dying instantly
Meanwhile Mr.. Griffin had gone to
his mothers room and found that she

made a search of the house and yard,
and then went to the cellarway, where
he saw his aged mother lying near the
foot of the stairs. He called to her.
but got no answer. and running down
the steps he found her dead and her
body already growing cold.
Securing assistance Mr.. Griffin car
ried the 1ifeless body upstairs and
physician was summoned, but he said
that she must have been dead about
% minutes.
Mrs Griffin was a Topeka pioneer,
having lived here for "a years. She
was a direct descendant. in the sixth
generation, of John Alden, and was
proud of her Puritanica1 ancestry. She
was born in Caremont, n. H., and her
name was Cynthia L. Alden

TURIN ART EXHIBITION.
Exhibits From the United States Will
Be Entered.

New York. July pa United States
general committee to promote interest
in and to pass on exhibits for the Inter-
national Exhibition of Modern Decora-
tive Art, to be held in Turin next year
under the presidency of the Duke of
Aosta, has been formed here and it ex-
tends an invitation to communicate
with it to architects artists and manu-
facturers who desire to exhibit their
work.
The Italian managers of the exhibi-
ton are particularly DESTROYS of en-
couraging exhibits from this country
and in communications with their rep
resentatives here, they express great
hope of American sympathy with their
objects. which are to revive aesthetic
taste in house decoration and to en-
courage original productions in artistic
form. The exhibition is not intended
to be a reflection of other Industrial ex-
hibitions, and therefore neither repro
auctions of styles already known, nor
simply industrial productions lacking
an artistic stamp. will be admitted.
The exhibition will be held in the
Valentine Park. Turin, from April to
Novem Der. Exhibits viii be admitted
to Italy free of duty. and the general
commission of the exhibition is arrang-
ing for reduced freight rates for ex-
hibitS.
