HIS HARD LUCK.
George Beck Has Had Many Painful
Experiences.


George Beck, of Hoyt, is in Topeka
looking for a business location. Beck
has a hard luck history which is hard
to duplicate. During the winter of 1885
he was caught in a blizzard and SO
badly frozen that he lost both feet and
one hand, and the other hand was ser
iously injured.
He had a claim about eight miles east
Of Garden City, where he had erected
a small shanty. On this occasion he
walked out from town to his claim one
day, and found that 'rustlers" had Sto-
len the door and window shutters from
his shack, but he decided to stay over
night anyway, as the weather was not
severe. After dark a severe blizzard
arose, and the house being open, he was
in danger of being frozen, so he got out
and started to walk to a neighbor1ng
ranch four or five miles away. He be-
came lost in the storm and darkness,
and was not found until the afternoon
of the next day, when a. cattleman dis
covered him several miles away frora
the ranch.
He was taken to Garden City and his
feet and hand amputated, but the op-
Grafton was unsuccessful. and both MS
legs were cut off the third time before
he began to recover.
Several years ago he n owed to Hoyt,
where he started a hotel which burned
down last year. Notwithstanding his
hard luck Beck has amassed consid-
cradle property, and now wishes to To-
cate IN Topeka.

TEST COLOR LINE.
LOWman Hill Trouble Reaches
Supreme Court.
Mandamus to Compel Board of
Education to Relax Rule.

G. c. Clemens viii file an alternative
writ OF mandanlus in the supreme court
late this afternoon to compel the board
Of education to allow negro children to
attend the Lowman Hill school or for
the board to show reason why they
should not.
The suit is brought in the name Of
" imam Reynolds to compel Principal
Hayes TO allow his son RaOul Reynolds
TO attend LoWman Hill school and rev
celVe the same treatment as the white
chlloren- The case VIII settle the diff
herences between the board Of education
ana the coiored people of Lowman Hill.
The board built a new eight room
brick school building at Lownan Hill
and opened it for the white children. A
Two story frame school building was
moved to Lowman Hill and named the
Douglass school and opened for the
negro children Of the district. The color
ed people objected to the Douglass school
and demanded that their children be
sent to the new school building now oc-
cupied exclusively by the white chill
dren.
The demand was made on various pre-
texts but the point which the supreme
court will probably have to decide is
whether the board Of education has the
right to separate the negro and white
children and to designate what schools
they shall attend.
The petition in the case sets forth the
difference in the appointments of the
two schools but the ultimate decision of
the supreme court viii likely settle the
color line question.

PINGREE TESTIFIES
In Case Growing Out of Detroit City
Savings Bank Wreck.

Detroit, Mich, April 26-Frank c.
Pingree, president of the wrecked City
Savings bank. was called to the witness
stand today at the examination of Frank
G. and Henry r. Andrews, vice presi-
dent and cashier respectively of the
bank, who are charged with causing its
ruin. Mr.. Pingree testified that last
July the directors discovered that the
bank was holding some of Frank c.
Andrews paper which they had not APP
proved. Pingree said he talked the dis
covery over with Frank G. Andrews and
told him that If the bank was going to
be robbed he (Pingree) did not want to
have anything to do with it and would
resign, Andrews" said Mr.. Pingree,
said he would not take the presidency
if I would resign He added that if I
resigned he would and if I wanted the
bank to go down all ! had to do was
to resign"
After a heated argument Andrews finally
agreed to sell his real estate and 10
straighten out the affairs. Mr.. Pingree
said that Andrews told him they could sell
the City Savings bank by fall. as there
were two banks that wanted to buy It.

How Cheap Baking Powder is Made.

The health department of New York
has seized a quantity of so-called cheap
baking powder, which it found in that
city. Attention was attracted to it by
the low price at which it was being sold
in the department stores. Samples were
taken and the chemist Of the Health De-
partment reported the stuff to be AN
alum powder" which analysis showed to
be composed chiefly of alum and pull
verified rock.
The powder was declared to be dan
gerous to health, and several thousand
pounds were carted to the offal dock
and destroyed.
1t is unsafe to experiment with these
sO-called cheap" articles of food. They
are sure to be made from alum, rock, or
other injurious matter In baking pow
ders, the high class, cream of tartar
brands are the most economical, because
they go farther in use and are health
full beyond question.
