THEY HAVE GIVEN UP.
Fight on Vaccination by East Siders
Is Abandoned.

Acting under the advice of DR.. S. G.
Stewart, DR.. c. F, Menninger and Dr.
w. S. Lindsay. the people living down
in East Topeka who have been refus-
ing to vaccinate their children under
the order of the board of health. de-
cided at their meeting last night to
comply with the%order. of the board,
and have the children vaccinated.
A committee was appointed, now
ever, to present to the council petit
ton asking that the present city ordi-
nance giving the board of health the
right to require the vaccination or
school children be amended so that 1t
will curtail to some extent the power
of the board The committee was
composed of c. H. Roof, George Far
ker, Mr.. Sims and Mr.. Jones, all resi-
dents of that part of twon.
The meeting was held at Chr1s
Roofs store on East Eighth avenue
lust across the Shunganunga bridge,
and was attended by about nifty resi-
dents of that part of twon who are
opposed to vaccination These fifty
people have refused to have their chill
dren vaccinated, and the authorities
have refused to allow the children to
come to school without vaccination:
The situation was in a deadlock. and
there were some indications that legal
proceedings might be taken to compel
the city to amend its orders. the
three prominent doctors who attend
ed the meeting last night explained
the situation in such a way that the
neopIe seemed to come to the conclu-
70 abide by the decision of the board
for the present. They will, however
make a. strong effort to have the law
changed.

WESTERN BASEBALL GOSSIP.
st. Joe Is to Lose Its Place in Western
League.

This mornings Kansas City Journal
prints the following baseball story
which is interesting as a testimonial
to a similar representation made IN
the Topeka State Journal two months
ago:
According to william A. Rourke. OF
the Omaha Western League club, st
Joseph may be dropped from the West
ern League circuit next year and Lin
coin, Neb., substituted. Rourke stopped
in Chicago Tuesday on his way to
Omaha from New York, where he at
tended the meeting of the National
Association, and while in the Windy
City he gave out an interview on
Western League affairs in which he
said that the circuit would be mater
tally changed before the opening OF
next season.
. The club in ST. Joseph failed to
prove an attraction this season,
Rourke is quoted as saying, and the
attendance was discouragingly smaIl.
Lincoln is anxious for a franchise and
the city is favored by the Western
League for membership. There will be
other changes in all probability, but
what they are will not be decided up
on until the meeting of the league IS
held
Baseball fans may behold some
startling changes in league circuits be-
fore the opening of the season next
spring. Many have already been hint
ed at. In the big leagues there is talk
of an amalgamation and the adoption
Of a 12-club circuit. Rumors of
changes in the Americas Association
are rife, and with the Western League
a shifting about of the franchises is a
positive necessity. And the Missouri
Valley league must not be overlooked.
A change in either the association or
the Western League circuit will almost
certainly mean a change in the circuit
of the valley league, as 1he club avn
ers of the Shively organization are only
too anxious to expand and would
pounce upon vacated territory upon q
moments notice.
Should the proposed dropping OF ST.
Joseph from the Sexton league come to
pass 1t is not altogether Without the
realm of possibility that the up-river
city would be supplied with baseball
of the Missouri Valley brand next sea-
son.
THE trend of the Western League
is toward the west. Talk of SeiZrlg up
on Victor and Cripple Creek shows a
desire on the part of the magnateS to
make the Western league more com
pact so as to cut down transportation
This was one of the severest drains
upon the leagues resources last year,
since the attendance was so
light In Omaha the teams played to
the biggest crowds on the entire cir
cult while the attendance in Denver
An immense economy in transportation
could be effected by forming a COM
pact circuit with Denver as the center.
Such a circuit might include Lincoln,
Neb, Denver, Omaha, Pueblo. Colorado
Springs, Cripple Creek, Victor and Salt
Lake City. Or Cheyenne, Wyo., might
be substituted for Victor

The headquarters on the 18th were
at the village of Swangtaikow, close
to the railroad and 1 3 miles north of
Port Arthur.
The Associated Press correspondent
upon his arrival there was WELCOMED
by General Nogi, who said he was just
IN time to see the conclusion of a sue
cessful campaign and the capture of
Port Arthur. The correspondent went
to the front the morning of the 18th
and saw the positions from the highest
peak of F'enghoang mountain, at a
range of five miles from Port Arthur
and two miles west of the railroad.
1t was evident that general attack
had been planned. The railroad to Port
Dalny was taxed to it's capacity in
bringing troops, siege guns, aInmuni-

Great activity prevailed everywhere

Buffalo BiIP' Declares This Has
Happened to Him.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 3.-With the
filing of the amended petition of Col.
w. f. Cody in his divorce case no
doubt remains of Buffalo Bits in
tention to pursue it to the end. After
alleging in the first cause of action
that Mrs. Cody had. at various times,
made threats to poison him and made
an attempt December 20. 1901, the sec
ond cause of action goes on to state
that Mrs. Cody, by insulting words and
actions. drove Cody and his friends
from his home on various occasions.
Scions of the British nobility, some of
whom are now speeding with the colo
mel on his man hunt, together with
Americans of national fame are in
cluded in the number said to have
been insulted by Mrs Cody. Colonel
Cody refuses to divulge their names in
his petition He says they will not be
made public until the trial. The
amended complaint gives numerous
dates of Mrs. Cody's alleged offenses
The next move in the case will be the
filing of Mrs. Cody's cross-complaint
which must be within two weeks.

When the liquor selling case against
Al Hayslip, H Elliott and Nick Noble
was called in police court this morn

carried.
When the police raided Al Hayslip's
