The plaintiff sets forth in her petition
that she is old and RAPIDLY losing her
reasoning faculties. She is the mother
of the defendant, and says that she and
her husband were living with the de-
PENDANT and her husband in Kingman
county until March 4. last. when Mr..
Campbell died. Shortly afterward the
daughter and son-in-law took the old
lady to a town in Sedgwick county and
compelled her to sign her name to q
piece of paper, which proved to be the
deed involved in the suit. In a short
time the old lady's daughter informed
her that 1t would be necessary for her
to return to her home in Bourbon coun-
ty as they could not afford to keep her
longer. Upon the old lady's return to
this county she learned Of the fraudu-
lent deed. She asks the court to restore
the title of the property to her name.
Besides compelling the old lady 70 make
the deed in question, It is emerged that
her daughter took all OF S225 excepting
$3.50 from her.

ONE FARE RATE
Railroads Make Concessions for the
NIidwinter Fair.

All railroads entering Topeka have
again granted a one fare rate for the
Midwinter exposition. This is a. compH-
nent to the Midwinters of past years
and indicates beyond question that they
have proved valuable as business get
tiers for the railroads. Last winter the
out OF town attendance was materially
lessened by the unprecedentedly severe
weather that prevailed during the per
iod Of the exposition, a degree of severi-
ty that is not likely to be encountered
again in many years.
Each year the AIidwinter has gained
more and more, the confidence of the
people Of Kansas. they have realized
that it was an affair that provided all
that it Dromised-and more, too. The
efforts OF the management will be to
gain a still stronger hold upon the con-
fidence OF the public by providing for
this winter the strongest exposition that
they have ever presented.

Both Eleyens in Good Shape for

RECORDS OF TEAMS.

Considered as. a cold-blooded bet
ting proposition, the odds against
Washburn in the Saturdays game
with K. U. seem to lie somewhere be-
tween 2 to 1 and 3 to L. Bets of 2 to
on K. U. are freely offered, with
very few takers, while offers of 1 to 8
on Washburn are also looked upon
without much favor.
People who take an interest in the
game as a chance to speculate on the
result. without sentimental reasons
for giving either side the best of it,
therefore seem to be of the opinion
that x. L. has a little more than
twice as good a show to win the game
as has Washburn.
Usually when the odds are so large,
there is a good deal of betting done
on the chance which the favOrite has
of making q certain number of touch
downs or the chance which the sup
posedly inferior team has of scoring at
all. No bets of this nature, however,
have so far been posted at Eagles. It
looks as though it ought to be about
an even bet that Washburn would
score, but the size of the K U. score
is very uncertain. In case Washburn
should happen to run into bad luck
and get one or two men crippled, it
might result in the univeTsity's piling
up a big score, While on the other
hand, if Washburn goes through the
game in good shape, it ought to be
safe to bet that the university can not
score more than two or three touch
downs.
There is no doubt that the scores
which K. U. and Washburn have made
in their respective games this year are
the dominant force in determining
Here is what K. L, has done so far this

ere is what K. u, has done 50 far this

OF course Washburn has its expla-
nation. for the low scores which it has
made, and as a matter of fact in three
of the games the opposing teams
scored on f1ukes. But this fact has
been noticeable, that Washburn in the
late games did its scoring in the first
half. In the. second half it has
seemed to let down. The Washburn
roOters Will therefore feel very uneasy
until they know that the second half
is over, even though their team
makes a good showing in the first part
of the game.
K. U. seems to have a habit of play
ing its best game in the second half.
It won both the Oklahoma and the
v ashington games in the second half.
IN each of these games it was able to
make only one touchdown in the first
part Of the game.
Teams in Good Shape.
So far as known, the Kansas team
is in first class condition for this
game. Some of its men who We're
crippled early in the season are back
in their old positions, and this enables
Coach Kennedy to switch Drummer
lack into the line, which has badly
needed him at left tackle The team
has gone through some hard contests
without injury OF consequence, and
seems to be in fine form for the
Nashburn game.
In the Washburn camp the men all
seem to be fit for the struggle with
the exception OF Caldwell. Some
think that the Caldwell stories which
have been going out are largely

be back at his old position of half
back next Saturday. The Washhurn
coaches. however, insist that it Is v-ry
doubtful. They say that his shoulder
can not stand a hard game. 1t would
net be very surprising, however. if
Caldwell should at least start the
game, but a crippled player is not
likely to last long.
Washburn has been getting some
dream dope on the result of the
gene. The last issue of the wash
burn Review says:
The football boys have been
dreaming of the K U. game. Snat-
finger says: I dreamed was playing
center and the game was almost oY er,

feet I seized the ball and carried it
