She visited in Topeka about three
weeks ago with Mr.. and Mrs. A. K.
Wilson.
Charles S. Sutton was a native of
Cambridge, England. and he began his
the New Orleans & Mobile railway in
1870.
He first entered the service of the
Santa Fe railroad in 1880 as chief clerk
of disbursements. He later went to
New York and returned to England,
coming back to America in January,
1887, when he again took service with
the Santa Fe and California railroad.
When that road was consolidated with
the Santa Fe proper Mr.. Sutton was
made auditor of freight receipts. He
was promoted to be chief auditor of the
Santa Fe's western lines in June, 1900
Mr.. Sutton's headquarters were at To-
peka. On account of the unpleasant
ness of his domestic trouble he asked
to be transferred and the Santa F'e gave
him a place with the coast lines with
headquarters at Los Angeles.
Following his attempt upon his own
life at Los Angeles in May, 1901, the
Santa Fe accepted his resignation. He

seem to suit the proprietors. The
whole front of the store is being re-
modelled. The pillar which has di-
vided the large north window will be
removed, and the entrance narrowed
to give more room in the south dis
play window, making each window II
rect long, with the wing windows the
same as at present. The space occu-
pied by the prism glass at the top of
the windows will be widened. All the
prism glass now in use will be taken
out, and new glass substituted.
The object of the changes is to
give the very best possible facilities
for displaying goods, and to increase
the light in the store. This morning
II. l. Whiting was experimenting the
work of removing the large windows
which are now in place. The glasses
taken out are so large that they had
to be cut while in the window. There
was no glass table in town large
enough to receive them. The cutting
of one of the large panes proved to
be disastrous, owing to the bad grain
in the glass. A large corner was brok-
en- on, materially reducing the value
of the remaining plate.

TO ASSIST STAHL.
Outside Aid Will Come to Police in
Liquor Crusade.

The State Temperance Union has for
mally decided to assist Chief of Police F.
NJ. StahI in his war on the Topeka joints.
The decision was reached when the chief,
City Attorney Spencer, Secretary W. i.
Dexter of the State Temperance Union
and Senator J. K. Codding of Westmore-
land. an attorney for the State Temper
ance Union. met in conference in Topeka:
Senator Codding has taken a personal
interest in the Topeka fight and will do
all he can to assist in the suppression of
the joints. The union has aided Stahl in
many ways since his appointment, but
from here on will officially take note of
proceedings
Attorney w. H. Cowles, who is prom
inent member of the union, will pay par
ticular attention to the laws regarding the
liquor traffic and will advise the chief of
police. Mr.. Stahl says:
THE State Temperance Union has de-
cided to assist in the work in Topeka be-
cause it realizes as this is the capital CITY,
other cities are governed largely by its
example. The union also recognizes the
fact that we receive no assistance from
the county OFFICIALS The union seems to
forget that the county. officials closed the
most notorious resort in Topeka and that
it has remained closed.

Mule Sick With Chambers Not Specified
in Ordinances.

The business of the city was brought
to a standstill today when somebody
reported that a mule at Twenty-first
and Lake streets was sick with CLAN
derS.
Chambers is something which the
ordinances do not cover and besides,
City Attorney Spencer could not be
found to give an opinion on the sub
ject. The afflicted mule was first re-
ferred to the city food inspector. but
he declined to officiate. Said thaN SO
far as he had observed. mules we're
not eaten in Topeka, so it made no
difference whether they had CHAMBERS
or not. He turned the case over to
the board of health but there was
nothing in the ordinance concerning
contagious diseases covering CHAMBERS.
1t was, however, decided to send a
sanitary officer out to inspect the case.
William Core was sent. Core frankly
stated that he would not know a case
of CHAMBERS from a binomial theorem,
but he was told to do his best and re-
port to the chairman of the board OF
health.
