Already 1890 Paderewski Admissions
Are Disposed OF.

The demand for tickets for the concert
to be given at the Auditorium by the
famous Polish pianist, Paderewski, has
been almost as strong today as it was
yesterday the day the seat sale opened
at Stansheld's drug store.
Orders for tickets have been coming
in from many of the Kansas cities and
towns. At three o'clock this afternoon
nearly 1900 tickets had been taken from
the chart, and if the sale continues as
brisk as it has been, it would indicate
a crowd of about 1900 at the concert.
Out of town people are sending their
orders for tickets direct to Stansfeld's s
drug store.
The price of seats for PaderewsIis
Topeka engagement is a dollar and a
dollar and a. half with half dozen Of
the front rows in the parquet at two
dollars. The 81 seats are limited in
number and were put in at that price to
satisfy Paderewsl1i who would not con-
sent to a scale of prices ranging less
than two dollars for the highest price
At St. Joseph where Paderewski plays
the evening following his Topeka en-
ga agement. the sale of prices range from
81 to $3.50.

HE Will Wait.
Elect Davis Will Not Ap-
point Tonight.
Hasn't Made Up Mind About
Chief of Police.

It can be stated on good authority
that W. C. Ralston will be retained
under the new administration as as
sistant city attorney, and that Miss
Grace Miller and Mrs. Engle will con-
ttnue to hold their places as assistants
to City Clerk sQufres.
Mayor Davis is reported to have
given some of his friends to under
stand that he viii not interfere with
the wishes of City Attorney Dreaming
and City Clerk Squires in the matter
Of these position, and Mr.. Drenning
SAID this morning that he would do all
In his power to help Ralston hold his
place Drenning ahas also submitted
to Mayor Davis a list of names of peo-
pie Whom he considers adapted to the
position of police court assistant,
which has been held by S. S. Urmy,
the new Police Judge.
At o'clock this afternoon, Mayor
elect Davis said: "I do not think that
Will announce any appofntme
this. evening. 1 have not yet fully
made up my mind about them. [
have not yet made out my list Of new
council committees. That will come
later"
It is now believed that the race for
chief of police lies between A. G.
Goodwin said this afternoon:
4 don't know what Mr.. Davis is
going to do. He has not told any
body, so far as know. He is study
ing the matter carefully, because he
wants to make no mistakes"
It can be stated that James F. Nc
Cabe is practically certain to be re
tained as city engineer. He has the
unanimous endorsement of the city
council, and also of some of Mr.. Davis
closest friends.
Six members of the council went to
Mayor Davis and made plea on be-
half of Street Commissioner Frank
Snyder. But today the indications are
that Snyder will not get the place.
James Ramsey is said to have the
best show. The trouble with Snyder's
chances is the energetic fight which is
being made upon him by certain
political enemies. who are close to Mr..
Davis Snyder is recognized as being
a thoroughly competent man for the
place, but he is very active in politics.
and unfortunately for him, he has not
been recognized as one of the friends
of Mr.. Davis crowd.
At the council meeting this even
ing, the vote of the last election Will
be canvassed, and the successful can
didates sworn in. Mayor Davis will
at once take his office, and will pre-
side over the latter part of the meet
ing.
City Attorney Frank G. Dreaming
put in several hours this morning
with the retiring city attorney, Charles
f. Spencer. Mr. Spencer showed his
successor his books, and the manner
of conducting the city's legal depart
ment He also explained some OF the
litigation which the city now has on
hand. Although Mr- DrennIng VIII
be technically in office after being
sworn in this evening, he will not take
possession until Monday morning.

Indians Are Ready.

Fort Hayes, N. D., April I'm a
great council called by Major NIcLaugh-
lin, the Indians of this reservation de-
cided almost unanimously they were
ready to have their lands allotted Each
head of family will have $40 acres and
all over Is years 800 acres. In addition
they will get a span of good American
mares, two COWS, a wagon and harness,
a plow, a harrow, some other tools and
$50 in cash All under Is will get leo
acres. After the allotments have been
made, there viii be a big surplus of
land The Indians are bitterly oppos-
ed TO selling this and it is doubtful if
it will ever be sold with their consent.
Each head of a family will be worth
81, 600 in addition to his $40 acres. when
Uncle Sam relinquishes his guardian
snip and turns these Indians over to the
states of North and South Dakotas as
full f1edged citizens Between ], 600 and
1900 voters will be equally divided be-
tween the two states.

PROFITS ENORMOUS.
Some Light Thrown on Cost of Max
ing Illuminating Gas.

New York. April THE actual cost
of manufacturing Illuminating gas in
New York was brought out today by
the committee which is investigating
light conditions in this city. John A
Sanborn, bool1keeper of the New York
Mutual Gas Light company, testified
that his company had supplied illum-
mating gas to the consolidated gas COM
pany under a contract which provided
that the consolidated company was to
pay the entire cost of production and
allow the Mutual a profit of ten per cent
above that amount. It had been shown
at a previous hearing that the Mutual
had supplied gas to the consolidated
company at 40 cents per thousand cubic
feet. Deducting the ten per cent profit
would leave the actual cost of produc-
tiOn 3615 cents per thousand cubic feet.
Other companies, which supplied larger
quantities, received from 28 to 81 cents
per thousand cubic feet.
In the examination of George w.
Doane, vice president and general man
ager of the New Amsterdam company.
it was developed that while the COM
pany is capitalized at $42, ,277 500, the
actual value of the property held by
the company is $8.196, 900.
Mr. DOane remarked that IS. 900, 600
was about the actual value of the prop
erty.

Some of the Judges VIII Get Seven
Dollars Apiece.

The people who served as judges and
clerks in the recent election will get
paid, perhaps, for their services in
counting the bond ballots. but in a
communication which will be read to
the citv council this evening, Commis-
siener of Election williams says that
he does not care to recommend any
definite fee. He says he passes thaI
whole matter 11n TO the council to ad-
just. Williams and the council have
tangled uD'' over this question on
previous elections. and this time Mr.
Williams is playing on the safe side
For the general election, the total
amount to be paid for judge and clerk
hire is $500. Some Of the
judges and clerks get as high
to the cost of judge. and clerk hire, the
city win pay $10O for rent of voting
places, s100 for meals, and S15165
for printing ballots. The total cost of
the election will be about $500. This

BIG BOND BONFIRE.
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
Worth Went Up in Smoke.

This afternoon there was a s500.0o0 bon
fire in the rear of the city hall. The
mayor, city attorney and city treasurer
officiated at the destruction of half a mil
lion dollars worth of cancelled securities
of she old Topeka Water company
These old bonds have been piled up in
one corner of the city attorneys office
eevr since the city took possession of the
water plant. They have been awaiting de-
struction. But everybody was afraid to
pass a resolution instructing the commit
tee of three to do the work. The bonds
are beautiful examples of the engraving
art. Some Of them were never sold by
the water company and never officially is
sued, though they were printed and ready
to sell had the occasion demanded it. The
pile of bonds made a package weighing
about so pounds.
