parts OF the estate. Mr.. Burleigh has
peen engaged i'll various real estate
deals in the city of Waterville and
gave his estimate of the value of the
estate in litigation, placing it at about
s1o'ooO. The value of the land which
mas been confiscated for use of the. Ii
prary would, in the opinion of witness,
De worth at least $4,000. The questions
and answers by the plaintiff counsel
tended to prove that the remaining
part of the Noyes property degenerated
in value according to it's previous val
ue. owing to the taking Of this peculiar
shaped piece of land for the use of the
public library.
Frank Chase. resident of Water

gagged in the manufacture of wooden

estimate of the value of the land. Wit
ness said if the land was his he would
consider % cents q foot as the bottom
price. Witness was crOsS-eXamined by
Attorney Brown at considerable length

the most feasible way to make house

sdered practical.

witness. In witness capacity as agent
for this company he was somewhat ac

of the land in question at about $4,000.

The danger point in the flood in To-
peka is passed. The Kansas river is
falling in Topeka and is also falling at
Manhattan and Wamegos west of To-
peka-
There is a rise reported in the
Smoky Hill at Junction City and Abi-
Iene. but this can have little effect in
Topeka and this can not be felt before
Friday or Saturday
There is no reason to believe that
the Kansas river will be as high as it
Yves this morning The only condition
which could cause this would be con-
tinued heavy rains in the west and
there have been no such rains in the
Kansas river watershed during the
past "a hours
The water in Soldier creek is re-
ceding rapidly. 1t was this water that
caused a great deal of the excitement
in North Topeka through false re-
ports circulated by irresponsible peo-
pie. and may have had something to
do with causing the panic which pre-
vailed last night and today.
The facts are that there has been
comparatively little danger in North
Topeka In only few localities did
the water get into the houses and there
were few if any stores in which there
has been any water. This flood will
consequently go down in history as be-
ing little more than mythical so far as
North Topeka is concerned for the
damage done there has been very small
The great damage has been to the farm
lands in the creek bottoms.
1t is not surprising that the people
of North Topeka should be easily
frightened. The horrors of last years
flood are too fresh in the memories but
the people who have by the circulation
of wild rumors caused a good part of
the panic deserve the most severe con-
demnation-the action has been little
short of criminal.
Needless Scare on North Side.
Excitement ran high in North Topeka
a few minutes before noon today when
Fire Chief Wilmarth needlessly caused
the general alarm to be given by ring
ing the North Topeka fire bell. the sig
nal which had been announced would
be given in time for the people to flee
for their lives
Chief Wilmarth's concern was caused
by the report which he received pur-
porting to be from the weather bureau
announcing that a four foot rise in the
river was upon the city.
The water had broken over the Unon
Pacific tracks at a second location and
the report which reached him about
this event confirmed him in his belief
that the water was about to cover the
entire area of North Topeka and he
wanted the people to know of the dan
ger in time to get to places of safety.

Early In August Of last year notifica

was sent to all the leading American
railroads, and In almost every instance.
response came promising hearty Coop
GRAFTON. All Of the great Trans-Co
tinental lines and the railroads Of the
East, from the Boston & Maine North
to the Piedmont Air Line South, are
now distributing the printed matter of
this committee, In conjunction with
their own material.
In addition to sending the pamphlets
and booklets published, to personal in
quirers, there have been handed In over
the counter of the committees rooms.
some 1000 personal addresses.
A list OF five hundred clubs in the
United States was made up and served
with printed matter, as was list Of
nearly three thousand libraries, and
the same number of hotels outside the
large cities. About two thousand
clubs, resort hotels and banks in the
United Kingdom and Europe, received
copies of each pamphlet.
In addition to the matter sent direct
from this Office, an aggregate Of some
eight thousand copies was distributed
by citizens of Honolulu during the
months of November and December
December lst, 1908, the committee
appointed as Its representatives on the
Pacific Coast, F. II. Jenifer. with Office
at No. II New Montgomery street, San
Francisco, also L. l.. Whitlock, 20a
West Third street, Los Angeles, In ad-
dition to the distribution companied
named above. The expense Of the San
Francisco Office is $3.50 month, and
that at Los Angeles $50 a month.
OF the 100000 appropriated by the
Legislature, 81 ,6S4.34 has been ex
pended. Governor Carter early in De
cember found 1t necessary to with
draw his consent to further expendl
lures under the six months appropria
ton, so that s3,315.G6 was thus lost to
the committees work. In the eighteen
months appropriation measure thel>
is provided $1,000 for advertising dur
ing the period from January LIST, 1904
to June Both, 1905. This may be I'M

The committee received to Deem
