North Topeka Citizens
Arrange for Guards.

A meeting of the representative people OF
North Topeka who are on the South Side
was held to-day to arrange for systematic
protection of property in North Topeka
Immediately after the meeting large
number of armed men started in boats for
the North Side. where they will guard prop
erty. and their orders are TO shoot.
The river Ia three feet below high-water
mark. The fall is plainly indicated oS1 the
Seymour building, at Kansas avenue and
Crane street. The water has receded on
Kansas avenue 20 the platform Of the Rock
Island Depot-a distance of go feet.
1t is the opinion of experts that the river
will go down rapidly from now on. The
Blue. the Republican and the Solomon riv-
ers have spent their force. and the volume
of water spread over the Kaw bottom will
hunt its channel quickly.
