JESTER ON WAR PATH.
Wanted Aspersions on His Character
Removed.


A. r. Jester, who was removed from
the sanitary force by the board of
health Wednesday evening, was camp
ing on the trail of Councilmen Nichols
and Griley this morning. He wanted
revenge, justice and retractions. He
said that in a certain evening paper he
had seen it printed that Griley and
Nichols had charged him with being I'M
fit morally for a position on the sani-
tary force.
Councilman Nichols squared himself
wifi. Mr.. Jester by signing a statement
that he never had made any such
charges, and that Mr.. Jester was not
removed from the force because of vio-
lationS of the moral law.
Councilman Griley would not sign
such a statement. He claimed that Mr.
Jester had been discharged largely
through the statement of DR.. c. E.
Judd.
II stated to the board said Mr.. Girl
ley, that some complaints had been
made to me about Mr.. Jester, and that
I thought he should be let out DR..
Judd exclaimed, If you had waited
about a minute, would have brought
up that matter myself We came to
the conclusion that Mr.. Jester drinks
too much to remain on the force. L
will take pleasure in seconding a mo-
ton that he be dismissed So 1 made
a motion, Judd seconded it, and it
passed. In view of those facts 1 do not
feel like giving Mr.. Jester a certificate
of honorable discharge"

FAHRIG is EXPECTED.
His Test of Trego Shsle Will Com
mence Next Week.

Prof. Ernst Fahrig, of Philadelphia,
is expected to arrive in Topeka tomor-
row, and it is likely that the Fahrig test
Kansas shale on Monday morning.
Everything is in readiness for work
The test mill has been built adjacent
to the Moeser cold storage plant, and
power to run the mill will be furnished
free of charge by the Moesers. A car
load of Shale from lie banks of the
Smoky Hill is in the ore bins of the
mill.
Prof. ]. T. Lovewen has recently COM
pleted assays of specimens taken at
random from this carload of shale. In
average showing of gold and silver for
the thirty assays was about SO a ton.
Two specimens which were specially Sc
lected by George Veale at the shale
fields made a wonderful showing. One
had about $3.50 a ton, and another $11S.
These two assays were not counted in
determining the average value of the
carload at 50 per ton.
All the tests at the mill will be secret.
No one will be permitted to visit the
mill and see the process except a COM
mittee appointed by the people who
have put up the money for the mill
This is done to prevent the possibility
of someone sailing the ore.
The work of installing the machinery
has been done by Prof. Fahrig's son,
Ernst Fahrig, jr., who is an electrical
engineer. Electricity is the active agent
in separating the gold, according to the
F,ahrig process.
The tests at the Fahrig mill will
likely continue for several weeks. An
other carload of Shale will be brought
from the Smoky Hill region.

SCIENCE HALL BURNED.
Montana University Building Valued
at 100000.

Helena, Mont, March IA special to
the Independent from Missoula says
that science hall at the State university
is practically destroyed by a fire which
started at 1:30 o'clock this morning. The
Missoula fire department went out to
the fire but were handicapped owing to
scarcity of water and could do but lit
tie to check the flames. The hall is the
second finest building on the campus
and is worth in the neighborhood of
100000, although the equipment it con-
tanned brings the total value up to
much larger figure. The building is full
ly insured. 1t has been in use less than
three years. The origin of the fire is
unknown.

PLAYERS BEST.
English Expect to Lose International
Chess Match.

London, March 14.-About fifty chess
enthusiasts gathered in the rooms of
the British chess club here today to
watch the beginning of the seventh an
nual international cable chess match
between teams representing Great
Britain and the United States.
e The general opinion expressed was
that the Americans would win. Great
Britain is severely handicapped by the
inability of Ward, Jacobs and Black
burne to play, though Lawrence and
Atkins are believed to have gained an
advantage by being able to play over
the board instead of by cable.
Among the spectators were Sir George
Newnes, the president of the British
chess club, the donor of the $1,000 chal-
leQge trophy.

CARRIED CONCEALED CASH.
Only Charge Against VIM. Tracey,
Arrested by Police.

Officers White and Aye arrested a
man last night as a suspicious charac-
ter, and when he was searched at the
police station $175 was found in his
sock, and $10.S0 in his pocket. He arous-
ed the suspicion of Patrol Driver White
earlier in the evening by lodging and
increasing his gait when he passed him
on the street, and when he saw him
again later, he proceeded to run the
stranger down, with the assistance of
officer Aye, and brought him to the
station.
The captured man, who gave his name
as Will Tracey. has only one arm. He
was we'll dressed, and said he came
from Paola, Miami county, to see a girl
here. He told various stories, and the
police were inclined to hold him, but let
him go, holding his '-wad" to insure his
return. He was not booked, as the only
charge which could have been preferred
against him was carrying concealed
cash.

WOULD APPOINT ,C.LINDSEY
Mayor Parker May Place Well Known
Character on Sanitary Force.

1t is probable that Charles Lindsey,
brother of H. c. Lindsey, will be APP
pointed as a member of the sanitary
police force. There are now four MEM
bers on this force, and a. fifth member
can, under the ordinances, be appointed.
At the recent meeting of the board of
health, Mayor Parker was asked to ap-
point two more members, but 1t mas
since been found that the city Ordin-
ances provide for only five members ON
the force.
Charles Lindsey does not have a good
reputation in Topeka. He has been
connected with several questionable re-
sorts. On February 20 he was arrested
by Sergeant owen and several officers
in Ed Nichols gambling house on East
Seventh street.
When Mayor Parker was asked today
whether or not Chas. Lindsey would
be appointed, he said:
Charles Lindsey is being considered
for the place, but the appointment has
not been made He is likely to be APP
pointed some time"
One of Mayor Parker's staunch sup
porterS in the council says: Mayor
Parker feels under obligations to APP
point Lindsey. He does not want to.
He had to turn Hank Lindsey down for
chief of police, and now Hank has ask
ed Parker, as a personal favor, to app
point his brother Charley. Parker,
feels that he can not refuse. l think
that it would be better policy for Mr..
Parker to tell Hank that he can't APP
point Charley. 1t will hurt his admin
istration.''
Those who are urging Charley Lind
sey's appointment say that he made
good record while in the United States
army, and that he was most puncti-
Iious about observanceS of army dis
cipline. They say he would make an
excellent sanitary official for that rea-
son.

War on Limbureer Cheese.

Chicago, March 14-Dr. NJ. K. Allen.
health officer of Louisville, Ky, accord
ing to a Tribune special, has opened
war on the sale and manufacture of
imburger cheese in this city. He says
persons who sell and make the cheese
will be prosecuted and fined to the full

satisfied it is unwholesome and that an
examination under an ordinary nagni-

that it contains many microbes. A COM
mittee of German citizens called on DIR.
Allen to protest against the enforce
ment of the order but the health officer
told them the rule must be obeyed.

MEDICINAL.

Anxious thoughts sometimes perplex
the wife who sees maternity before her.
If she is treading an untried path, she
sometimes frets herself into a nervous
condition which is injurious and pros
trating. II motherhood has already been
a painful experience she is apt to shrink
from the coming trial and by her very
mental anxiety increase the possibility
of her suffering.
There is no cause for anxiety for those
prospective mothers who use DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t tranquilizes
the nerves, encourages the appetite, in
duces refreshing sleep and produces
mental cheerfulness as well as physical
vigor. 1t gives strength and muscular
elasticity so that the baby's advent IS
practically painless. 1t is the best tonic
for nursing mothers.
uI am 80 thankful for what Or. Pierce's Pa
vorite Prescription has done for me" writes Mrs.
John T. Smith Of SLOGAN, Brit Col, Box So vi
helped me through the long months before BABY
came and have q big, strong baby girl, the
most healthy Of the three. and Il cured me Of
disease which was taking away all my strength"
The dealer who offers a substitute
for uFavorite Prescription" does so to
gain the little more profit paid on the
s Sale of less meritorious medicines. His
profit is your loss, therefore accept no
substitute.
