principle than to get the support OF ev-

1t is probable that the 40 cases which are
defective will be dismissed when they
come up at the next term of court. City

yet what we will be able to do.

IN A QUANDARY.
Police Committee of City COun-
Gil Discusses Revenues.

A long and important meeting of the
police committee was held Friday even
ing, at which the principal matter un-
der discussion was the best method to
regulate the joint and slot machine
business in Topeka Mayor Parker at
tended the meeting, also Chief of Police
Donovan. Those who We're at the meet
ing are not inclined to make any posi-
tive statements as to what policy was
decided uDon but it IS understood that
several lawyers have been called upon
to give legal advice to the committee on
needless litigation and al the same time
make the joints and slot machines con
tribute some revenue to the city
The committee also decided that Geo.
Clark, the football man who was ap-
pointed on the police force two weeks
ago, had served the city long enough.
His official head was summarily remOv-
ed for cause" Clark made two bad
breaks both on the same day, and thev
cost him mis- job. He had only been on
the police force a few days when Ser
house, found Clark within. Clark was
given notice that such a thing must not
occur again, although at that time Clark
was not on duty. But that very night
another disorderly house was pulled,
and lgain Mr.. Clark was caught. TIE
second Offense was serious. because
Clark was supposed to be at the time Oh
duty in a distant part of the city. The
committee decided to save one mans
salary by not appointing anybody in the
place of Clark. Clark is success in
the rush line of a football team. but he
does not seem to be cut out for a po
lceman.
