MAY ELECT TOMORROW.
Controversy Over Clerk of Supreme
Court Grows in Interest.

A report was cn.rrent today that the
election of the cIeN.k of the supreme
court would be taken Ep tomorrow upon
the return of Justice Pollock from King
man, but some of the Justices of the
court deny any knowledge of anything
of the kind.
There is no set time for taking the
matter uD.'' said one of the justices to-
day, and 1 will not be surprised if there
is no action taken for month an more.
1t just depends upon whether SOMEBODY
gets in a hurry. Whenever some Justice
gets to the point that he wants action
taken he will probably call the makter
up, but I do not know that there is any
particular hurry about it,
Justice Cunningham returned unex-,
pectadly to Toaeka last night, and this
probably gave rise to the rumor that
the justices would get together for an
election tomorrow.
1t is said that Justice Smith will not
vote either for the reelection of D. A.
Valentine. who has been clerk of the
supreme court for the past four wears.
or for Gale Jones, his opponent, but
viii vote for William Needles, a Wyan-
dotte county man, who is a dark horse.
This. it is asserted. will make the line
UP as follows:
For Valentine-Chief Justice Johnston,
Justice Green.
For JOneS-JuSticeS Burch. Pollock
and Mason
For Needles-Justice Smith.
Doubtful-Justice Cunningham
This will pass the result up to Justice
Cunningham. If he is willing to vote
for Jones it will give Jones a majority
and ther efore elect him. But if Justice
Cunningham should vote for Valentine
or some other candidate it will leave
Valentine in the office So that Cum
ninghanl really has the deciding vote.
1t has been reported that there might
be an effort to displace Herbert ARM

the court for ten or twelve years, but

AUrUmN's INCENSE.

A subtle incense fills the air
And mingleS with the signing
OF breezes that this message bear:
1.-The good old year is dying
The creeping. dull October haze
Grows slowly, surely denser.
And through the closing of the days
There swings a smoking censor.
A censor heaped with autumn leaves
From green to crimson turning
The vapor a weird pattern weaves
The while the leaves are burning.
In airy arabesque it sways
While twilight shades are gloomings
And all the shadow andathe haze
The incense is pertaining.
The tang of it is wondrOus sweet
1t is with summer scented:
1t holds the rustic of the wheat
Through days glad and contented;
It has a whisper of the rose,
And apple blossom SAVIOR.
And June days with their lazy doze
Where grasses lent flavor.
And so the censor slowly swings
While fields and woods are fading,
And memories of summer brings
When day to night is shading.
The burning leaves with spicy smoke
Join with the breezes signing
Through golden beech and redeemed OAK
THE good old year is dying.

LET OUT ONCE BEFORE.
Not First Time Misses Bone and
oberg Wers Discharged.

The dismissal of Miss Ethel Bone and
Miss Alma Oberg as attendants at the
state insane asylum on the supposed
ground that they had not given the right
kind of testimony in the Nell-E1eterson
trial has brought Gus the fact that these
two girls were dismissed once before by
Superintendent Biddle, and then taken
back.A This occurred a few Gays after
Neil and Peterson were arrested
The exact reasons for their dismissal
at that time are as much mystery
as they were for the second similar oc-
currenee Miss Oberg told a Sblte jour
nal reporter today that Superintendent
Biddle told her and Miss Bone rev
days after Neil and Peterson were ar
rested that they would have to fe2ye
Miss Oberg went to town, and when she
came back to get her baggage Biddle
had changed his mind, and said she
might stay.
Miss Oberg said this morning; DR.
Biddle notified US through our super
visoress Thursday evening that our SER
vices were no longer needed. When
asked the reason. he. replied that we
were dismissed by request or the state
board of charities.
IF we had been detriment to the
institution, or incompetent, 1T seems
strange that it would take him foslr ana
a half years to find it out. That IS the
time we have worked at the asylum. L
also worked for DR.. Biddle While when
he was superintendent of the Osawato-
mic asylum.
It don't know the real reason for DR..
Biddle's action. He did not think we
told all we knew about that Maxwell
case. At least that is what he says
Miss Ethel Bone says: When fHF
Neil and Mr.. Peterson had their trouble
with Maxwell, 1 was at work in the
dining room. where was supposed to
be. Miss Oberg was at work cleaning
up fA2r room, just as she was supposed
to be doing Neither of US could nave
known anything about this trouble but
it seems that we are held responsible
for what happened. We have lost our
positions merely because we happened
TO be working in that ward. 1t looks to
me as though DR.. Fiddle was doing this
simply to make it appear that he. Is
taking radical steps to prevent anyone
else being hurt in the future. He is
afraid of losing his place as suQerfn-
tendent and wants to use SOMEBODY as
a victim to shield his own record.
Miss Oberg left this noon for her
home ait Dwight. Kas., and MISS bone
will leave this evening for her home
in western Kansas.
Neil and Peterson. the two attend
ants who were acquitted of the charge
of numbering Maxwell, will not work
at the asylum again Mr. Neil says ne
would not work there for 500 month
"BiddIe treats his attendants like
dogs" said Mr.. Neil today Il was
simply working there because L wanted
to earn money to go to school. 1t IS
Ia good place to save m osey, because all
you get you can save"

Figures just compiled by the depart
ment of commerce and labor, through
its bureau of statistics. show the i'm
portatioas of three classes of material
utilized as India rubber in recent
years. They show that during the
past few years the importations of
crude rubber have ranged from so, to
55 million pounds; of gutta-joolatong
from to Is million pounds, and of ''old
and scrap rubber fit only for remanu-
facture. from 10 to 20 odd million
pounds per annum, and of gutta-percha
a half million pounds The industry of
importing and retaining India rub
Der for reuse in manufacturing is a
comparatively new one. and. while it
utilizes large quantities of worn-out
rubber boots and shoes and other ar
ticles of this character from the scrap
heaps of the United States. it has only
extended to other parts of the world in
recent wears. In 1888. for example, the
total importation of "old and serap
India rubber fit only for renanufac-
Bure" was less than a million pounds.

Statistics recently published by the
government of Cuba. show that in the
first quarter of 1903 the number of i'm
migrants entering that country was g.
163 OF the total 1881 came from Spain.
The United States contributed only 361.
In the same three months the number
of alien passengers entering the ports
of Cuba was 11207 There were 9,125
that left the island. 1t seems that there
was a gain from this source of 2.OS2.
The largest business in carrying passen-
gers, both ways, was with the United
States. Spain stood second. But more
people came from Cuba. to this country
than sailed from the United States to
Cuban ports. ON the other hand about
5000 more passengers jOurneyed from
Spain to Cuba than the number who left
Cuba to go to Spain
