CONGRESSMAN ] A. HEMENWAY PROBABLE SUCCESSOR OF
PRESIDENT ELECT FAIRBANKS SENATOR FROM
FOUND A FORTUNE.
Woman Discovers $4,000 That She
Didn't Know She Had.

New York. Dec. "a fortune of
$4,000 growing out of the recent
great boom in Bronx real estate has
just come into woman'S hands
through an investigation in which she
took no interest and of which she was
unaware. Through the sale of the
Becker estate tract it became known
that Mrs. Becker, wife of a dealer in
furs, owned one-fifth of the property
The search also realized for the
owners of the tract, the New York
and Presbyterian hospitals, Columbia
university, the Society for the Proven
ton of Crime of which the Rev. DR..
Charles Fl. Parkhurst is president, and
the board of home missions of the
Presbyterian church many more thou
sands of dollars than if the property
had been sold some years ago.
Up to two years ago it was thought
that the five institutions each owned
one-fifth interest in the property. At
that time it was agreed that the tract
should be sold. The transaction was
delayed until recently while the in
vestigation OF old deeds proceeded.
This finally resulted in the discovery
that Mrs. Becker, whose father years
ago held a one-fifth interest in the
property had a deed drawn trans
ferring that to his wife. The deed
was placed in a strong box and re-
NAMED forgotten but through the
series of transfers found on the county
records its absence was noticed and
the fortunate woman located

PARDON ASKED FOR.
Friends of Miss Boise Want Her Re
leased From Jail.

Mrs. NJ. w. Gilmore and Mrs. Cole
man appeared before the board of
county commissioners this morning to
plead for the release of Blanche Boies
from the county Jail where she is serv-
ing a sentence for smashing joint win
dows February IA. 1908.
Miss Boise was convicted in the dis
trict court for smashing the windows
of the Palms joint. She served her
time in that case and was convicted
in another case. Judge Hazen an
nounced that he would suspend sem
tence pending her good behavior and
secured a promise from Miss Boise
that she would not smash any more
windows.
Miss Boise went to Wichita and
smashed some joint windows. She
was arrested. Judge Hazen immedi-
ateIy issued a commitment for her
and Sheriff Lucas went after Miss
Boise, brought her to Topeka and
placed her in the county Jail to serve
the suspended sentence. MISS BOISE
evidently did not know that Wichita
was within the jurisdiction of the
Shawnee district court and explained
that she had not broken her promise
Hazen it would not be necessary for
her to smash while Frank Stahl was
chief of police.
Miss Boise has since had the oppor-
tun1ty OIL securing a PARDON from Gov
ernor Bailey if she would promise
that she would not smash any more
windows. She refused to promise. The
county commissioners told Mrs Gil
more and Mrs. Coleman that in order
to secure a pardon for Miss Boise from
the commissioners that the Judge of
the district court and the county attor-
ney must concur in advising such a
course and Miss Boise must sign
positive statement that she will not
smash any more in Kansas.

No Move Yet Made to Reopen
the Grand.
People Still Expected to Pat
ronize an Unsafe House.
WHAT OF THE PRICES.
Topeka Expected to Pay More
Than Other Cities.
A Few Remarks About Wizard
of Or No. 2.

Nothing has yet been done toward
ntting up the Grand opera house for
reopening. It will probably stand idle
until people quit going to the Craw-
ford theater. Then Topeka will have
q safe and adequate theater to attend.
Meanwhile the public clamor may
cause the local management to play at
fractions for the same prices as charg-
sd in other towns.
Crawford & Kane announce that THE
Wizard of o. ran several months at
the Majestic theater at New York city
at 81 prices.
Montgomery and Stone, the men who
made the play famous are playing in
the same piece at the Academy thea
ter in New York at the present time.
AS it is a physical impoSSibil1ty for the
men to be in two different places at the
same time, it is seen that they will not
be in the cast of the road company
which comes to Topeka Will the prices
be any less for that reason? There are
other things to be considered, however.
1t is generally known that the stage in
most of the metropolitan theaterS is
large enough to accommodate the en-
tire scenic equipment OF any produc-
ton. 1t is also as well known that all
of the scenery and equipment is fire.
quent1y not used in the presentation of
big productions on the little Crawford
theater stage.
At the same time the Grand opera
house, a safe theater, with a stage
equal to the emergencies of the biggest
of big productions, stands idle.
Edward Morgan, who recently pro-
duced 1.-The Eternal City, in Topeka,
admitted to a reporter for the State
Journal that only one-half of the
scenery for his production was used
in the presentation of the piece on the
Crawford stage in Topeka. Mr.. Nor
gan claimed to possess two carloads of
scenery for 1.-The Eternal City, and
but one carload was used in Topeka.
The Crawfol theater management
is becoming me and more worried.
1t rushed into prinI this morning with
the following:
The State Journal fixes prices of 10,
25, 35 and so cents for 1.-The Village
Parson' at the Auditorium theater in
Kansas City next week. Unluckily
woodward & Burgess instead of the
Journal are the managers of this
theater and they refuse to dance to
the State Journals music, just as some
other managers have done. The fol-

THE ROAD AGENT.
BY Nj. Quad.

A western stage coach in which
were six men of US had been held up
by a single robber, and all of US plum
dered. When he had finished his
work he nodded for the other five vic
tins to get into the vehicle, but for
me to remain behind. When the
stage had passed on he said to me:
Thompson. I am not a bad fellow
Just knuckle to circumstances and
Well get along all right. You take the
guns and I'll carry the sack. Turn in

COMPOUNDED lonesome up here and
want some one to talk to. Thirdly, 1
may induce you to go into partnership
in this hold-up business. There's both
fun and profit in it,
We made our way through the
brush for a mile or more and then
came upon his camp, which was I'M
der the overhanging of great rock.
There were blankets and cooking
utensils scattered about, and as I stood
looking around he turned to me with:
TITS not a palace, my dear boy, but
just safe and comfortable roost. I've
put in three weeks here all alone, and
I'm mighty glad to have company.
| Just make yourself at home while
cook supper"
I threw myself down on a blanket
| and he made coffee, fried some bacon
and mixed up and baked a cake of
| -four. Now and then he looked up
at me with a smile. but we had no
conversation until the meal was
served. He asked me to excuse lack
of dishes and cutlery, and after a bit
careleSsly observed:
THAT was a lucky find you made
last fall, Mr.. Thompson"

COUNTY MAY TRY FOR GAS.
That Is What the Commissioners Are
Talking of Doing.

The county commissioners are con-
sidering the plan of sinking pros
pect hole on the county poor farm in
hopes of finding gas-or artesian
water.
The poor farm is six miles north of
Topeka and on a range of hills which
extends to Kansas City some distance
back from the Kansas river. From
Kansas City to Bonner Springs, some
25 miles, this range of hills has been
thoroughly prospected and plenty of
gas has been found. AS the poor farm
is located on this same range of hills
the mmissioners thing the chances
for finding gas are good. If gas was
found it would furnish heat and light
for the county poor form, besides
establishing the fact of a gas field
near Topeka.
The commissioners are considering
the plan of letting the contract for
sinking a hole 1000 feet at a cost of
$4,000. The commissioners would
have the power to do this as the pros
pect hole would be for artesian water
or whatever else might be found.

SPRAGUE CHASE is OUT.
Finally Decides to Pay His Fine and
Costs.

Sprague Chase, who was fined $50,
and costs, for assaulting Snowden
Shaw, paid his fine, and the costs,
amounting to S1o3.75 and was re-
leased from the county Jail this morn
ing.
Chase made application to the
county commissioners to be released
and allowed to pay on the installment
plan. The matter was referred to
County Attorney Hungate who op-
posed it. Chase ought to have gone
to the penitentiary,' said Hungate.
He assaulted a man he did not
know and nearly killed him. He got
off too easily when he was fined only
$50. He should not receive any
clemency.'' The commissioners then
refused to allow Chase to be released
on the installment plan and Chase
paid the full amount in cash.
Chase knocked Snowden Shaw down
with a brick. at Sixth and Kansas
avenue, and then tried to beat the
fallen mans head with the brick.
Irving Mallory, a small colored boy,
went to the rescue of Shaw and Chase
fought him. Chase did not know
Shaw and had no reason for assault
ing him except that he thought that
he was some one else.

Topeka people may look at the Kan
sas City papers at any time and verify
the statement that the Auditorium in
Kansas City is a popular priced the
ateg.
management makes is that they at
tempt to show that 1.-The Village Par

Kansas City than in Topeka. That is a
reversal of the usual order of things.
It will be hard to make Topeka people
believe that any attraction brought here
by the Crawford management may be
witnessed for less money than is
Kansas City theaters. The Auditorium
theater at Kansas City is managed by
Woodward and Burgess. who also man
age the Willis Wood, the home of high
class attractions.
