Turkey Will Not Be Permitted
to Occupy Bulgaria.

London, Sept. 19.-The Associated
Press learns that war between Turkey
and Bulgaria is not now regarded as
imminent by the foreign Office or other
diplomatic centers in London. 1t is sta
ted that under no circumstances will the
powers permit Turkey to occupy Bull
garian territory. hence Turkey has Moth
ing to gain by hostilities.
Regarding the renewed rumors that a
British fleet is going to Turkish waters
The Associated Press is officially inform
ed that as Balkan matters have been
left in the hands of Russia and Austria
such action is not contemplated by
Great Britain or so far as known by
any other power. In the meantime the
powers are daily exchanging communi-
cations with the view of determining
on some possible means of restoring or
der in European Turkey.

IN A BAD WAY.
Football Prospects at Wash
burn Not Encouraging.

The management of the Washburn
college football team has gone a-beg-
ging. Since the death of Clovis Dale,
who was elected last year by the stu
dent body to the managerShip of the
team, nothing has been done to COM
plete the schedule nor start the team
out right. Last Thursday evening the
board of athletic control, made up of
representative members from among
the students. met at the college Office
and elected Hugh Mcfarland, man
ager of next springs baseball team, to
look after the affairs of the football
team this fall. This action was very
popular one, and the board thought
that by SO doing they had solved the
difficulty and paved the way for a sue
cessful season of the college sport.
AS soon as Mcfarland heard of his
election by the board of control, he i'm
mediately sent in his resignation to
that organization, alleging that his
college work was too heavy to allow
him time for additional duties. Since
yesterday the board has been in search

year of the big team" in 1900. the man
ayers of football have been unable to

town creditors were clamoring. A strong
effort was made among the students to
lift the debt and about half of the mon
ey was secured. At the time of this ac
ton the faculty ruled that the entire
debt must be settled before Washburn
participated in any college contest on
either gridiron or diamond. However
they granted stay of execution until
this fall and the baseball team played
out its spring schedule. A debt of $461
yet remains and settlement of this must
be made in full, according to recent ut
terances of members of the faculty, be-
fore the students will be permitted to
move wheel.
Coach Bert Kennedy has had his men
out for light practice every night since
Tuesday and there is every evidence of
first-clasS aggregation. A lot of new
men have put in appearance and more
than half of last years team will pro-
badly be on the field next Monday night.
The first game arranged on the
schedule is set for next Saturday, Sep
tember 26. with the soldiers from Fit.
Riley The soldiers are understood to
have a strong organization and the
Washburn players will likely be mater
tally strengthened by the addition of
Coach Kennedy behind the line.

vANDERPOOL TO GO.
Veteran Sanitary Sergeant Re-
quested to Resign.

Charles T. Vanderpool, sanitary SER
geant of the city of Topeka, is to be let
out on October 1, and his place will be
filled by r. p. Pay, who has been ac-
tive in politics, and is a friend of the
Bergundthal administration.
Vanderpools resignation was request
ed by Mayor Bergundthal in a letter
sent to MIR. Vanderpool on August "a,
but the fact has been studiously kept
secret 1t seems to have been the plan
to keep the fact of the change from the
public as long as possible, for what rea-
son is not apparent.
The letter requesting Vanderpools
resignation states no cause for the ac-
ton. The public is left free to suppose
that City Physician Storrs is at the
bottom of it. vanderpool had worked
for the city as sanitary sergeant for
about three years, and has given very
good satisfaction. He has been Obliged
since June to carry out Storrs' system
of suppreSsing all information about the
health of the city, but has not been in
sympathy with the plan, and it is likely
that Storrs wanted him out for that
reason.
Mr. vanderpool does not lay any
blame on Storrs, however. He says that
he does not know who is responsible for
the action.
c. " Wolf, a member of the city
council, is known to be hostile to Van
derpool, and has made a sort of run
ming fight on him ever since he entered
the council. Luther Nellis is also said
to be mixed up in the deal 1t is prob
able that the payment of political OBJ
legations to Mr.. Pay had something
no active part in the campaign for
mayor as he was working for the city
at that time. His sympathies, however,
were with the winning side, and he

personal dislike

Hansen, for many years president of
the Danish Lutheran church in America,
