DANGER HAS PASSED.
Kaw, Smoky Hill. and Republican
Rivers Are Falling.

Junction City. Kan, July 10.-Since
Saturday night the Republican river has
fallen more than four feet and continues
to go down steadily. Sunday evening
the gauge in the Republican river here
registers 11.3 feet of water, Saturday
evening when the river was at it's high
est point it measured 1876 feet The Re
publican as well as the Smoky Hill
and the Kaw is now in its banks.
The electric railway track. between
Junction City and Fort Riley is no long

the cars began running between the city
and the post. As the water stood on
corn and wheat fields only about a day,

flood viii be less than was first thought.
Saturday evening the farmers a cou-
pie Of miles above this city had to dyn-

and continues to go down slowly.
Manhattan, Kan, June 10.-The Kaw

WILDER DEED WILL STAND.
Judge Dana UphoIds Right of w. j.
Bond to Property.

In the district court this morning
Judge Dana decided that the deeds made
by S. w. Wilder, a short time before
his death, conveying a house and lot
and an 80 acre farm to Mr.. and Mrs.
William J. Bond should stand.
George E. Sabine brought suit, as
an heir of Wilder's, attacking the deed
on the ground that Mr.. Wilder was not
of sound mind when the deed was made
and that undue influence was exerted
in inducing him to make the convey
ance. Mrs. B. E. Criswen, a witness
for Sabine, was another heir affected by
the transfer. For some years before his
death Mr.. Wilder had made his home
with the Bonds. He was quite old and
was a helpless invalid and almost blind.
A short time before he died he executed
the deeds with the understanding that
he did SO to show his appreciation for
the care given him and the promise of
the Bonds that they would care for him
to the end.
In delivering his decision Judge Dana
said: 81 knew Mr.. Wilder, and his
brother, for many years, but this decis-
ion must not be from any sympathy I
might feel. I believe that from the evil
dence that Mr.. Wilder disposed Of his
property just as he intended to and in
exactly the manner which he had indi-
Gated at many times, that. he intended

of time. He was member of many
lodges and the lodge members called
upon him at many times and his con-
versation with them was perfectly ra-
tional. Judgment in this case will be
for the Defendants.

SHOT HIS WIFE TO DEATH.
Husband Fired Five Times and Three
Shots Took Effect.

Kansas City, July 1O.-Mrs. Henrietta
N. Crane of 1101 Bales avenue, was shot
to death at 7:25 O'Clock Saturday even
Ing by her husband. John M. Crane.
Men and women sitting in front of their
homes in the vicinity saw the shooting.
Mrs. Crane was reading a paper on
the porch of her home when her hus-
band, from whom she had been separa-
ted several months, approached. She
saw him before he reached the. yard and
sprang to the door to get inside the
house. Crane ran to the door and be-
fore she could lock the door on the in
side, he had hold of the knob. Then
followed a struggle. in which the glass
in the door was shattered. He forced
his way inside and the next moment a
shot was heard
Mrs. Crane ran screaming from the
house with her husband in close pur-
suit, firing his pistol. She ran across
the street and Crane shot her repeatedly
as she ran. Mrs. Crane reached the lawn
in front of the home of W. r. Evans,
1106 Bales avenue, and sank expiring
on the grass. Mr.. Evans sprang to her
assistance She gasped once or twice
and said:
For Gods sake take this man away"
She only lived a few moments after
this utterance. Crane fired five shots al
together and three of them took effect.
Crane was arrested.

Get on a cash basis. Pay
cash for everything and don't
buy unless you have the cash
to pay. You'll get away from
the worries of thinking up
schemes to get the money to
pay up. You'll save money
and you'll have money to get
many more things than you
do under the buying on credit
system.
Now these things we're tell
ing you are not theoretical.
We have seen them enacted
time and time again with peo-
pie who changed from a credit
to cash paying basis. The
same thing is happening every
day with people who are
changing from the credit stores
to this cash store.
The Topeka man, whose adj
vice, tYoung man, pay cash, -
is given in the caption of this
article, has been through the

the wonderful difference be-
tween the credit and cash

You want to be honest with
yourself. You know that when
you buy goods on credit you

eye. If cash store sells
goods as cheap as they can be
sold, and cash store has no

then a credit store that GER

cover the "extra'' expense.
That's reasonable, don't you

NEGRO AT HER BEDSIDE.
An Elnporia Woman Visited by an
Early Visitor.


Enporfa, Kan. July 1o.-Mrs John
H. Lusk, wife of the night engineer at
the ice plant, awoke in her home, 113
South Mechanic street, about O'Clock
Sunday morning, to see a negro stand
ing at the side of her bed. The negro
struck her on the forehead with q
heavy instrument, rendering her un-
conscious and cutting a deep cash. A
year old girl who was sleeping with
Mrs. Lusk screamed, frightening the
intruder away Mrs. L1isk was uncon-
scious several hours and her condition
is critical.
Thomas Wood, 4 negro, was arrested
at Usage City and brought back to this
town. He was taken off a freight
train which left here shortly after
the house of Mrs. Lusk was visited.
Mrs. Lusk believes he is the man who
frightened her. The shoes worn by
the negro fitted tracks found outside a
window of the Lusk house.

FOR A NEW PRESIDENT.
Ottawa Resident, Thinl1 Ci,sutauqna
Should B; Stir cd Up.

ottawa, Kan, July 10.-H. B. Topping,
president of the Knife and Fork club of
Kansas City. is to be offered the presi-
dency of the Ottawa Chautauqua as
sembly. DR.. c. S. Nusbaum, the secre-
tary, and number of leading officers
and business men of the town met and
talked over the proposition last night.
Mr.. Topping will be communicated with
tomorrow.
The determination to ask a Kansas
City man to accept the leadership of
the Chautauqua is because of the reali-
zation of the Ottawa people that the or
ganization needs new and younger
blood. It has been an Ottawa institu-
ton for 26 years. Residents here have
become SO thoroughly accustomed to it
that they seem, a. large part of them,
to have lost interest. The railroads also
have begun to neglect the Chautauqua-
The attendance has grown too small to
meet the expense of keeping it alive.

perhaps larger than ever, then
comes the worry of getting to-
gether enough money to pay
it. That's a familiar.scene we
believe. Yet you and your
family try hard each month to
buy less.
It will always be that way
unless you pay cash. When
some people read this. we know
they'll say, "That's your side
of it because you run cash
store.'' Certainly it is, but
we want you to understand
that it's a fact. When you know
that you can buy things
and have them charged, it's
SO difficult to say, "No, can't
afford it.
But, on the other hand,
suppose you are paying
cash. Suppose you know that
you have certain obligations
to meet at the end of the month
or week. Then you count up
and see what is left for extras.
You wouldn't spend that as
quickly as you would the same
amount when the goods were
to be charged to be paid for at
the end of the month.

of rough and tumble fight with
the world.
You should profit by the ex-
perienee of just such men.
Pay cash and pay cash at q
cash store. To pay cash at a
credit store is better than buy
ing on credit, but to pay cash
at cash store gives your
money its full power.
This is a cash store, a dyed
in the wool cash store, the
only strictly cash dept. store in
Topeka. The methods in use
in this store are the methods
that 10 years of cash merch-
andising have shown US are
the best. The corner stones
upon which we are building
such wonderful business in
this Capital City of Kansas
are:
