PRESIDENTS VALENTINES
Many Showed Him Welcoming Col
 ored Man into Tn1Ir Huudrad

many showed Him welcoming Col
 ored Man into Four Hundred. Washington Special to New York World.
 Pictures of negroes predominated in the hundreds of valentines sent to the Pres ident. The favorite subject showed the President extending his hand to negro in full dress and welcoming him into the Four Hundred. who were scowling at the President from behind. Others showed the President and a negro walking arm in arm, and negroes assembling at the White House receptions.
 The caricatures came from all parts of the country. None reached the President. Those he did see were of the sentimental variety, of which there were many. One effusive maiden said:
 You are my hero every time,
 You are my brave valentine"
 An applicant for position in the Treas ury Department perpetrated this Brave and true, strong and steady, No wonder you get there gallant Teddy. |"

CITY RESPONSIBLE.
Streets Must Be Kept h Safe
Condition.

saOne thing was definitely and finally
decided by Judge Hazen in the district
court yesterday" said City Attorney
Spencer today. He has made it plain
that the city must keep the streets clear
of vehicles which have been allowed to
stand in front of wagon repair shops
There is not the slightest doubt tina
people who collide with such vehicles
and receive injuries can sustain an ac-
ton fer damages against the city
Judge Hazen's decision came up in tie
Thompson damage suit. Thompson is q
14-year-oid boy who ran into d wagon
while he was riding his bicycle down
jackson street The wagon stood in
front of repair shop Owing to the
fact that the city able to prove
that the boy was riding too fast. anc
that his injuries We're not permanent
the jury allowed him only a nominal
sum fer damages. But his father now
has q claim against the city for the loss
Of time Of his boy. and for doctor bills
which the city will no doubt have to
pay
The decision of Judge Hazen is in line
with the policy already adopted by
Mayor BargundthaI concerning vehicles
allowed to stand on the streets. Mayoe
Bergundthal has instructed Chief of 20
lice Goff to enforce the ordinance strict

ness men mad. They have been allowed

DEFEATED ALL STARS.
Girls Taught Expert Bowlers Some
New Things About the Game.

The bowling team of the Young Wo-
mems Christian association has defeat
ed the all-star aggregation of the Elite
bowling alleys and is now looking for
more worlds to conquer.
The five young women are very reri-
cent about their victory and would
rather not have the fact that they beat
the boys printed. They didn't permit
the game to be advertised and the gen
eral public was thereby deprived of the
opportunity Of witnessing a contest of
unusual interest However, another
game is being arranged and by the time
1t is played the girls viii probably have
become Injured to publicity sufficiently
to have an announcement Of it made.
Last nights game was arranged on
rather short notice by Del Kirkpatrick
Who is one of the Elite stars. An effort
had been made to fix up a meet be-
C. A. but the directors Of the latter
institution considered the engagement
would be undignified and improper, re-
alizing that their bowling team was
rather weak anyway, and the game was
forbidden Fortunately the Elites were
untroubled by any qualms about the
propriety of the thing and they bit at
the challenge which the coy youths of
the Young Mems Christian association
had rejected.

order to make it easy for the young
women the boys spotted" them 100
apiece. In other words the young Wo-
men We're given 100 points each the adj
vantage over their adversaries. It didn't
take the boys LONG 10 see the unwisdom
of their generosity and the girls rolled
up scores topping theirs without half an
effort. Before the game was half over
the boys We're perspiringly trying TO
catch up on the handicap under which
they labored but with no success. The
first game was lost by one point while
in the second the Elites went down in
ignominy
The hardened muscles of the girl
gyannasts sent ten pins flying all over
the back of the room and the pin boys
nearly wore off their legs keeping the
games progressing.
Composing the team from the Y. W.
c. A. were Miss Lillian kirkpatrick,
Miss Maude Van Houten, Miss Mary
Durant Miss Lena Davis and Miss Lii
Ian Valentine. The Elite team consist
ed of Barnum, Wentworth, MacVicar.

the game stood as follows:

DONOVAN MUST GO.
His 'sResignation" Is Placed on
File.

The resignation of ex-Chief of Pole-
Timothy Donovan viii probably be
allowed to stand. The police committee
held its lone delayed meeting Tuesday
afternoon, and did not either accept or
reject the resignation. It was simply
placed on file. which means that the
best thief catcher in Topeka must step
aside to crafty partisan whims. Dono-
van has not been working on the police
force since he resigned. and the action
Of the police committee in neither ac-
cepting nor rejecting his resignation is
regarded simply as an easy way of let
tiuz him out

committee who has been absent from

Il don't care to say anything about
the donovan matter. We simply allowed
the matter to remain as it was. Whether
this means Mr.. DonOvan's dismissal /
do not care to say.
For the present the committee de-
cided to retain the present iailers and
sergeants. Jake owen, sergeant. win be

gundthal. 3. T. Owen and 5. r. Barnes
were appointed patroimen. but it is not
yet decided whose places they viii take

The question of handling the joints
and disorderly houses was discussed at
some length. and general plan of pro-
cedure was adopted. Mayor Bergund-
thai refused a state what viii be done
He said:
Il don't like to have the papers come
out and say that we are going to do SO
and so, because we might change our
plans. and then people would say, Oh
you cell down in what you started GU,
to DO didn't you?' I viii simply say
that we are going to work in a system

good job as we can. and get the town
