MAJOR IS DISGUSTED.
Ana Nearly Every one Else with tue
Chicken Show in auditorium.

I Il am disguised with the city coun-
Gil. said Major T. J. Anderson this
morning The major has been oppos-
ing the use of the Auditorium for
chicken show purposes. AT one time
they vote not to permit the Audi
terium to be used for such a purpose,
and then they go right back on that
action and vote to let Hughes in.
I don't think I shall do anything,
though 1 have been seriously consider
ing the ACCESSIBILITY of bringing in
junction proceedings. presume you
can get at this matter by going to the
county attorney. But you would have
to put up bond if you did
I could go out and get over a
| thousand signers to a petition re-
monstrating against using the Audi
torium and not half try to work. This
settles that CaiVe matter had to
telegraph this morning to call the
thing off because I couldn't assure
them that date. It's been hanging
fire for the past ten days now. That's
one of the reasons that I don't care
to push this matter any further.
Hughes is quite a fighter. He has a
military record which consists of go
ing into action at the launching of
the battleship Kansas and substituting
bottle of spring water for a bottle
of champa gne.
THAT chicken show won't hurt the
pipe. organ. That building will be de-
odorized and disnfected so that you
won't be able te smell anything" said
J. W. F. Hughes.
Il am everyIastingly against that
show" said City Attorney Dreaming.
TT smells up here like a stable.
Hughes never had a contract for that
Auditorium.
81 don't care to take sides in this
matter" remarked Prof. Penny. LAS
an organist, however, feel that it is
not the proper thing to hold chicken
show in a place of this character It
doesn't do the organ any good. The
dust which arises is the only thing
which can injure the organ. How
ever. the odor is very disagreeable; it
fingers for months afterwards Last
winter it took two months before the
odor was completely out of the build
ing, and even now I can detect an
odor- I can't help but feel that the
Auditorium should be kept for high
class attractions. I presume, however.
since it is d public building it should
be thrown open to all classes of
amusem
Frank Foster, of the Pipe Organ
association, said: Il have nothing to
say. I don't want to engage in any
controversy -

FUSS OVER SCHOOL LAND.
A. c. Bushey Applies to Supreme
Court for Help.

An alternative writ of mandamus
was granted late yesterday by the SUI
preme court to A. G. Bushey of
| Thomas county against the county
commissioners of that county, to COM
pei them to consent to the appoint
ment of appraisers in a fight for a
quarter section of land which has sud
denly become valuable.
Buslley claims that the quarter Sec
ton was the property of the state
that he settled on it in 1904, and went
through the required forms in order
: to- obtain n 0Tnsstead rights. In Sep
TENDER of 1905, he filed petition ask
ing the county superintendent, who in
this case happened to be a woman
Miss Bertha Showalter, to appoint
three appraisers and have the land ex-
posed for sale. Miss Showalter ap-
pointed S. c. PASSED., A. Cersovsky and
Ed Miller, and then the county com
missioners stepped in and refused to
consent to the appointment
The county commissioners had an
other man who wanted to buy the
land, and it was commended that
Bushey's settlement was invalid, be-
cause the land was under lease at the
time he made it. The rival claimant
had gone through the form of settle
ment ssa bsequent' to the expiration of
/ the lease.
Bushey claims that the lease was no
good, on the ground that it shall be
signed by the county treasurer and
superintendent as well.
The county commissioners must an
swer to the mandamus suit on Nov. g.
Dempster Scott, who was here as
the attorney for Mr.. Bushey, is an
Atwood lawyer, and says that BUSH
ness is good for the lawyers in west
ern Kansas.
THE rapid Increase in land values, -
he says, have caused a lot of old
titles to come into question. and legal
proceedings is the only way by which
these disputes can be adjusted.
Within the past few weeks. have had
three such cases come to me. and it
/ is the same way all through that part
of the state. This quarter section in.
voIved in the Bushey suit is proba bly,
worth $4,000, and besides Mr. Bushey
has built on it a house worth $1,000.
There is a big demand for good land,
and many new people are moving in
and settling.

SHOOT LIVE STOCK.
Farmers stin Have Trouble With
Reckless Hunters.

Farmers from the duck shooting dis
tricts are coming in in droVes and ask
ing to be sworn in as deputy sheriffs
so that they may protect their fields
and property from the hunters who they
claim have gone mad on the duck pro-
position. One farmer who applied for
a license this morning said: Il don't
mind an occasional hunter coming out
to shoot and my friends are always
welcome, but when the whole city of
Topeka turns out and overruns my
farm it is more than I viii stand
They have shot my chickens, my
calves. my hogs and my dogs and
have sprinkled me a time or two and
[ propose to see if I cannot stop it. 1t
is fact that my chickens have grown
to know a bunch of duck hunters by
sight and as soon as they sec. a man
with a gun they let out a squack
and start for the barn with their
necks extended, wings Topping and
squacking at every jump. They fear
the hunters more than they do the
hawks and other natural enemies"
