Nothing Like This Weather, at
Least Since 1887.
What Observer Jennings Fig
ures Will Prove.

The past Is days. from December 20 up
to today, have constituted a remarkab BILE
period of genuine Kansas midwinter
weather. For that period the average
mean temperature has been 361a degrees,
and with the exception of day the
mean has been above freezing. In fact,
the maximumS have all been above freez-
ing with the exception of five days, and
with the exception of one day the min
1mum temperature has been above Is.
observer Jennings, who is reticent about
the weather a rule, admitted today
that the present period of balmy weather
was unusual While this lasts there is no
need of anyone going to Florida or Cali
fornia- The daily record for the past %
days, showing the ma ximum. minimum
and mean temperatures and the velocity
and direction of the wind, is as follows:

ment an item which appeared in the
State Journal on January s. The item
follows, exactly as printed on that date:
"Malon Burgett, a deaf mute an
nounces that Albert Parker will win in
the supreme court decision of the To
peka mayOralty contest. His opinion
might be accepted as worth something,
for he is the only man in town who
has not talked about the outcome of
the contest"
Mr.. Burgett came to the State Jour
nal office yesterday, proudly bearing
the State Journal of January s. and
pointing to the paragraph mentioned.

Parker's victory to the fact that he

Bundy and locked up over night. A
search of his person revealed three
passes bearing a crude imitation of
o. T.. Crawford's signature. The boy
declared to the court that he had not
forged the passes, but that they had
been given to him by other persons.
Crawford did not appear against him
and sent word that he had no proof OF
the boys guilt, SO he was released.
Next came the victim of hard luck,
Charles Watt, making the third arrest
in three days to his credit. : Saturday
he was arrested for keeping company
with one Bessie Lane, and was given
a limited time to depart from the prem
ises he then inhabited. The woman was
also told to make good her escape, but
alas they both failed to depart and
were again arrested last night J. H
Hartman, the landlord, objected to his
tenants, and conceived the police Sys-
tenn of bringing about the desired de-
parture. AS Watt is a poor man, the
court appointed Attorney Joe. Reed to
defend him, and having nothing else
to do the genial attorney filled the bill
to the best of his ability. Under his
management of the case Watts not only
escaped, but it was shown that the wo-
man in question was holding executive
sessions with an old soldier named
William Penn Willets, also a roomer at
the place, 108 North Kansas avenue,
last night. Willets explained this by
saying that the woman had sold him
her goods and chattels, room furnishing
ct cetera, for the freezeout sum of So,
and that as he was shy the price, they
drew up a mortgage" for the amount,
to come good next pension day. His
definition of a mortgage caused con-
siderable merriment among the legal
fraternity, and the case was closed by
discharging the defendant for the third
time. It was evident to the court that
the case was not for him to decide. but
a subject for society of some kind for
the prevention of something.
The hour was approaching dinner
time when the court began to clean up
the docket in the most approved style.
He began by discharging one Joe john

NEW SHORT STORES
Rough on willkins.

Beriah WiIkins, owner of the Wash ington Post, was formerly a represent ative in congress from Ohio. He tells with great glee a story about his first campaign. When he was nominated, he had never made a public speech. Soon after the convention a delega- ton came to him from a small town in his district and asked him to come out to a ratification meeting. Wilkins said he would. but cautioned the delegation against asking him to speak. They said that would be all right. as they had provided two professional spell binders. All Wilkins would have to do, they said, would be to shake hands and kiss the babies.
 Wilkins went, was met by a brass band and escorted to the hall. Then, to his utter dismay, he found that the speiibinders had not arrived. The chair man insisted that Wilkins must say something. He stood up, was intro duced and said everything he could think of After he had been talking what seemed to him two hours. but in reality was not more than fifteen min utes. he gave out entirely and sat down.
 There was dense silence. Not per son in the hall applauded- Then the chairman arose and said:
 ''If there is anybody in the hall that can make a speech, we will be glad to hear him."
