MITCHELL SAVES scHueENs.
Man Who Ran Gambling House Goes to
the Works,


James H. Mitchell, proprietor of a gam
bling house in Minneapolis, who escaped
arrest in connection with. a recent raid,
appeared in court this morning and an
pounced voluntarily. that he was the pro-
prtetor of the place which Edward M
SchugenS, a musician at the Metropolitan
theater, was sentenced to sixty days for
maintaining.
Schugens pleaded guilty to the charge
of keeping this place in order to shield
his friend Mitchell. believing that fine
would be imposed and that Michel would
pay it. He was given a straight work
house sentence instead of a fine, and that
altered the complexion of affairs as
Schugens is a married man with a family
of children.
Mitchell told his story to the court very
simply. He said that he had regarded the
plea to this charge as mere formality
and had not supposed there would be any
Imprisonment. Since a sentence of sixty
days had been imposed on an innocent
man he considered it his duty to come
forward and take the medicine that was
rfghtfully his. He asked that Schugens
be discharged.
Judge Holt changed Schugens' punish
ment to a fine of $75 after which he was
to be released. Mitchell shook hands
with Schugens, and told him he was sorry
for the trouble caused paid the Schugens
fine. and went out to the works with Il
smile on his face.

MARSHALL's BAND LOSS.
1t Is $4,000 but It Will Give Free
Concerts.

In the recount of the damages of the
flood in North Topeka little or no at
tention has been paid to the losses sus-
tanned by Marshalls band at Garfield
park. In the damage to the park and
in the loss of this summers business,
which was badly needed by the band,
the officers of the organization consider
that they have lost about $4,000 Not
withstanding this serious set back the
band management has announced that
free summer concerts will be given in
one of the South Topeka parks or on the
state house grounds. Should street car
service be resumed in North Topeka
this summer the concerts there will be
opened again
On account of the unsatisfactory sup
port that Topeka has given the concerts
in the past, MarshaIl's band has ac-
cumulated a small Indebtedness which it
hoped to clear off this summer. The
idea has, of course, been given up now
and the organization can only hope for
better times in the future. The con-
certs which it now proposes to give will
be free. The band win play in the
state house grounds or perhaps in Holli-
day park at Huntoon and Topeka ave
nue. The date OF the first concert and
the programme will be announced later.
The band expects TO give free concerts
on the Fourth of July.

Please notice that he holds a small

He bought the thing in spite of all
His paw and maws commands.
He has his pockets full Of caps,

His spiteful little weapon snaps;
His heart is free from care
To him the fears his parents have
Seem foolish and unfair.

He let's his eager chum
Shoot now and then and in return
He chews the latter's gum;
At length deadly cap explodes
And burns his little thumb.

Make ready right away,

So young should have to die.

Be left alone to sigh,

Make green graves in July.
