ranch and made demands on the Dew
eys. They wanted the Deweys to with
draw certain warrants legally issued for
the arrest of the Berry boys. I will ad-
NIT that there was certain to be clash
between the hostile factions sooner or
later, but there was nothing to indicate
when it would come. When it did come
it was unexpected and unprecedented.
If we had been allowed to introduce
testimony to show the character of the
Berry family it might appear to the
court why the Deweys were unwilling
that the Berry should draw water out
of that WE'LL
Mr. Hessin than made new point in
regard to the application for bail. He
said:
1T is well known that capital punish
ment in this state is practically a dead
letter. 1t has been a dead letter for 20
years. The court should recognize this
fact. There is really no such thing in
Kansas as capital crime. All offenses
are therefore baila bic. The statutes re-
fer to capital crimes when as a matter
of fact no such thing as a capital crime
exists. This law is a lie and a farce on
it's face"
He argued that the Berrys were kill
ed as a result of their own acts and
indiscretions, and offered to prove at
the proper time that the Berrys were
men of bad and desperate character.

debate in the neighborhood Reid was for
having the pavement laid on line with
the center of the so foot street at the north
end of the block. On a compromise he
agreed to the laying of the Pavement on
a bias, the north end of the block to con-
form with the intersection of the pavement
in the block between Huntoon and Thir-
teenth on Fillmore and the south end to
conform with the correct center of the
block in which he lived. This proposition
for compromise was advised by the streets
and walks committee of the council. That
would place the center of the paving ct
the north end of the block two and a half
feet west of the center of the IS foot
street which has resulted from the sue
cessive paringss to which the original 100
foot street was subjected.
The last act of the comedy of Much
Ado About Two and One-half Feet was
put on in the council chamber last night.
A considerable representation of the neigh
bOrhood was there Mr.. Low and Mr. Reid
represented their own interests, while
Judge T. F. Carver spoke for the rest Of
the neighborhOod. He spoke at length. Mr..
Low spoke briefly. H. NJ. Ives. who lives
at the south end of the block and will lose
approximately three inches of his parking,
spoke supplementary to the remarks of his
attorney He said the arrangement would
injure the looks and value of all their
beautiful street
The council gave both sides fair hear
ing and then adopted the report of the
committee on streets and walks.

SETTLED AT LAST.
Fillmore Paving Will Be Laid
on the Bias.

The fine artistic taste, the esthetic
instinct of the residents of Fillmore
street between Thirteenth street and
the next street south, has been Jared
by a decision of the city council fol-
lowing closely upon a somewhat heated
neighborhood controversy over the
question Of whether or not the pro-
posed brick pavement shall be set
squarely in the ostensible center of the
street or shall be laid out slightly on
the bias so as to conform with the in
tersections of the streets at opposite
ends of the block. The difference VIII
be unnoticeable when the street has
once been paved. Geometrical par X
ings, clean moved. will obliterate ths
lack of uniformity. which in reality
is infinitesimaI. The thing which in
the Second ward would probably be
termed a "neiShborhOod row. viii.
these things have transpired and the
lapse of time has lent a perspective ct
which the humorous phase of the dill
Guilty will be more apparent to the
people who shared it.
A foundation for the present trouble
was laid when Fillmore street was
opened. 1t was opened in sections. The
north eighty odd feet of the street was
plated eighty feet wide. AS the east
line of the street was uniform the city
council vacated twenty feet of the
west side of the north 100 feet giving
the street a uniform width of eighty
feet After that APO feet more of street
was opened on the south with a width
of IS feet. NJ A. Low, who owned 81
feet on the east side of Fillmore street
next the north end of the block, volun-
tarily consented to the vacation of the
twenty foot wide strip which made his
part of the street conform with the
part south. He was not consulted when
another five feet was taken off the
west side of the eighty foot part to
make the whole street of a uniform
width of seventy-five feet
Most of the people who moved into
the block in the last five years didn I
know anything about the surgical OPP
GRAFTON that had been performed at the
north end of the block. Last year
Albert 7. Reid, Mr.. Lows son-in-law W,
moved into the property on the east
side of the street. Then came up the
question of paving. Although the city
council had vacated twenty-five feet OF
the west side of Fillmore street at the
the north end of the block it had not
changed the legal center of the 100 foor
street which was plated there at first.
The width of the street on the east
Mr.. Reid did not want to give up a
chunk of his parking in order that the
proposed thirty feet paving might b4
placed in q line with the center of the
south end of the street. He was
willing to relinquish his claim to tho
twenty feet taken off first but not to
the five feet eliminated last

THEY ARE NOT DRONES.
Tent City Residents Deny That They
Do Not W ork.

The people living at the fair grounds,
in the tent city for refugees from North
Topeka. are disposed to resent the atti-
tude of Mayor Bergundthal in his an
nouncement that the tent city must be
disbanded on July 10 and that the peo-
pie must then shift for themselves af-
ter that. In communication received
by the State Journal one of the resi-
dents of Bailey City says:
There are now Is families living IN
the fair grounds. Out of the IS eleven
families are paying their own way and
every man in the fair grounds, with one
exception, is at work. That man is un-
able to do so. When he says that we
might be able to shelter ourselves May
or Bergundthal does not realize how
heavy our loss has been or he would not
say that we would be able within three
weeks to furnish a house, pay rent and
buy all our provisions
Mayor Bergundthal is not disposed to
act hastily in the closing of the tent
city. July 10 has been set as the date
for closing UP the fair ground shelter
village but no one who has no other
place to go to will be turned out on that
date.

Minneapolis. Oct. 1.-Wheat prices
were fractionally lower at the open
ing On the better weather forecast.
The buying today was of the most, in
fluential kind, on the theory that
prices have been unduly depressed.
Cash markets strong and the better
interests shown by the millerS, both
at Minneapolis and the outside points
helped the futures. Flour shipments
yesterday sell above 10000 barrels.
Surprisingly large in view of the stu

tempered only by the Indifferent atti-
tude of the foreigners, but they will
be all the better buyers when they do
take hold, which they must do, and it
is only question of time with them.
And we would favor buying the May
and holding it, verging lines on all
