Mr.. Wigderson says a premonition
came over him just before the wreck

he went to the platform where man
stood with a baby in his arms, and
warned the man he and the baby would
be killed if there should be wreck.
The man went inside. Then came the
crash.

WILLIE SELLS SELL
Treasurer Perry Says Circus
Will Be Kept Intact.

Will Willie Sells sell, or was he sim
ply selling the public when he said he
would sell?
That's the question A few days ago
Mr.. Sells announced that he would have
a big auction sale of all his circus stuff
beginning February 5, and continuing
till April 9. Today is the day for the
auction, but nothing is doing
Thos r. Perry, the treasurer of the
Sells circus. says: There won't be any
sale. We have sold all the stuff we
want to. We are not going out of the
circus business for a minute. That was
just talk. What we sold was about
$4,000 worth of old equipment that we
did not want. We are going to have a
bigger and better show next year than
ever before. Down at our paint shop
on lower Kansas avenue we are hard
at work fixing I'D our equipment. All
the wagons are being painted. and as
fast as they are completed they are
taken out to the fair grounds and
stored in one of the buildings there.
The Sells-Downs circus will be on hand
next season all right"

HOW TORPEDOES WORK
q. G. Cook, Kansas Boy, Officer in

It is rather peculiar that a Kansas
boy from the short grass country
should be an officer in the United
States navy. but Kansas has such a

is now off nsacola, Fla. This Kansas
boy is U. Cook, son of S. c. Cook,

whose home is in Cove county.
Young Cook was appointed as cadet
from the Sixth district in the Annapolis
naval academy about six years ago.
He graduated in 1901. and is now an
Ensign Cook has just written letter
to his relatives here in which he tells
some interesting facts about torpedoes-
In his letter he says:
I'VE go out three times a week for
practice with our torpedOeS, and the
rest of the time is mere routine.
THAT reminds me, did ever tell you
about the torpedo and its use? I be-
part of my naval career has been as
ISOLATED with this terrible and destruc-
tive weapon of warfare. Perhaps you
and all of my friends would like to hear
about it, since you have, no doubt,
heard it mentioned countless times.
The torpedo that is used almost ex-
cluSiYely in the navy is, to be exact.

sizes are used. or rather two lengths.

of the torpedo boats and the earlier
torpedo installation in the larger yes

feet. The longer ones. which are used
by the destroyers and which are now
being fitted to the newer ships, are five
meters long-about 1879 feet. This is
the one I shall describe. since it is the
kind the Whipple is provided with.

that a prize of about $3.50 be offered

HARD ROAD FOR TRUST.
6hipbuilding Company's Affairs Still
in Tangle.

New York, Feb. 5.-AIthough it was
stated last night that the new plan of
reorganization of the United States
Ship Building company, put out by the
new reorganization committee and the
receiver and assented to by Samuel I'm
termyer on behalf of the Bondholders'
Protective company, thus settling the
main litigation between those parties,
would be agreed to by all the large in
terests, there was no sign today that
the Commonwealth Trust company, as
successor to the Trust Company of the
Republic will take a position in accord
with it. 1t is was authoritatively sta
ted that the commonwealth company,
as successor to the company financing
the Ship Building company, might, in
asserting to a plan by which the ship
building stock is to be wiped out, make
itself the butt of attack by stockhold-
ers and place the responsibility else
where.
1t was stated some time ago that the
directors of the Commonwealth Trust
company had decided upon bringing
action in the court for the purpose of
indicating their honor in the ship
building transactions and this policy
has not been lost sight of.

TAFT IS EXPECTED
To Be Guest of Honor at Semi
Centennial.
President Roosevelt Says That
He Can't Come.
WILL MEET TONIGHT.
Committee Is to Outline the
Detail Work.
An Address to People Of State
Will Be Issued.
WILL MEET TONIGHT.

William H. Taft, secretary of war,
is expected to be the guest of the citi-
zens of Kansas at Topeka on May 30
on the occasion of the opening of the
Kansas Semi Centennial celebration.
In sending his regrets at his inability
to accept the invitation of the Semi
Centennial committee to come Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt communicated
through Congressman Charles Curtis,
his intention of making a personal re-
quest of Mr.. Taft that he substitute for
him in filling the engagement. Presi-
dent Roosevelt expects to be very busy
about that time with the affairs of his
Office and of his campaign and he will
not be able to come here. His sugges-
ton of sending Secretary Taft has been
received by the Semi-C Centennial COM
mittee very gratefully. Secretary Taft
is a national character and one in
whom the American people are interest
ed. His presence in Topeka would
doubtless mean also a large military
escort of troops from Leavenworth and
Fort Riley, which would lend consid-
cradle eclat to the occasion on which
he should appear. Although the out
come Of this proposition has not been
learned it is expected quite confidently
that Mr. Taft will come.
A very important meeting will be
held tonight at the Commercial club
IooHlS LOT the purpose OF outlining the
preparation work for the Kansas Semi
Centennial celebration. This business
is in the hands of a special committee
of the club composed of the following
persons:
T. F. Carver, chairman: H. NJ
Philips, vice chairman; P. J. Monaghan,
George W. Crane. E. P Jordan, Albert

is expected that this invitation will be
accepted by prominent members OF
local musical organizations, the Civic
Improvement association and by mem
bers of the Topeka Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs.
One of the first things that will be
taken up will be the framing of a gen

side of a ship or metallic substance. ex-
plodes the torpedo. The part marked
b is called the head and is detach-
able in time of peace and for practice
we substitute a facsimile head filled
with water for ballast. The real head
of the torpedo is filled with 220 pounds
of wet gun cotton, one of the highest
explosives known. Into the front end
of the head is screwed the cap or per-
cussiOn.
1.-The part marked &C. is a long cylin-
der which is filled with air compressed
to 1850 pounds per square inch, or 90
times the pressure of the atmosphere.
This furnishes the motive power.
Part d is almost identical to part
c. with this exception, that it contains
the mechanism which controls the tor
pedo and causes it to run at certain
depth under water. The part marked
e. contains the engines and various
parts of the mechanism which sends
the torpedo through the water and
steers it straight on its course.
1.-The part marked F contains the
propellers and rudders which control
the torpedo. Thus you see the tor
pedo is a perfect little ship within
itself and is as intricate as a watch
and requires constant attention and
care.
The torpedo is shot overheard by d
long tube about 20 feet long, which

water, the torpedo's own mechanism
takes control and directs it to the des1g-
mated target. The torpedo travels at
a speed of about % knots and may be
implicitly relied on at a distance of SUI
to 1000 yards. Beyond that, while very
dangerous, it is not so accurate. the
newer torpedo will travel much faster
and may be relied on for distances up
to nearly one mile. While INFINITELY

much more dexterity in handling and
