stock Market Shows Effects of De-
moraIizatiOn.

New York, April 2S.-The stock mar
ket showed the after effects of yester-
days Generalization today but a con-
test developed between opposing forces
and made violent fluctuations both
ways. A higher opening helped by buy
ing earlier in London did not dissuade
sellers from unloading in great volume
and a threatening slump followed. Wig
orous support rallied the market but
this did not quiet the feverish tone at
once. On the break such declines were
indicated as points in Northwestern,

principal losses. Northern Pacific rose

RESISTED THE SHERIFF.
Lyon County Farmer, Wife and
Daughter Use Guns.

Emporia. Kan, April 2S.-Sherin
Hinshaw and his posse of deputies
succeeded in bringing Henry Busch, a
Russian farmer, alleged to be insane,
to trial late Thursday. Busch stood
off the officers day. Finally the Off
GERS charged and went through a win
dow into the house. Several shots
were fired by Mr.. and Mrs. Busch, but
none took effect
Busch attempted to shoot his shot
gun through the broken window and
depty, John Lee, grabbed it from
him. Busch then got a pitchfork and
stood at bay. but was overpowered-
Busch's 12-year-old daughter got the
drop on Lee, the bravest deputy in
the posse, and was in the act of dis
arming him when he discovered the
gun the girl carried was not loaded.
Busch appears rational. His brother
in-law on the stand stated that Busch
was respondent over losing his cattle
on a mortgage. Being a foreigner, he
cannot understand English readily.
Busch's house was we'll stocked with
firearms and ammunition, and the
doors We're nailed shut.

LECTURE AT HORTON.
Is Attended by Many Citizens of
Topeka.

Horton, Kan, April 28.-Judge Hanna
of Colorado Springs, gave a splendid
lecture at the opera house here last
night on Christian Science. Being a
former first reader in the mother church
in Boston, and editor of the official per-
iOdicals, he referred intelligently to the
life and character, as well as to the la
bors and literary attachments, of the
Rev. Mary Baker @. Eddy, the author
of the Christian Science textbook which
bears the title of Science and Health,
with Key to the Scriptures" Speaking
from this vantage ground, he said in
part:
4 can truthfully say that, intellect
ually, she is one of the most alert per-
sons I have ever known; she labors in
ceSsantly and unselfishly for the cause
to which she has devoted her life, and
Notwithstanding her years, now per
forms an amount of labor each day
which, if known, would seem incredible,
even if done by one yet in the
adolescence of life. AS to her religious
character I speak my profoundest con-
Viction when I say I believe it to be
Christian living. Yet, Notwithstanding
her highly spiritual nature, she is
withal an intensely practical person.
She keeps close watch of current affairs
and acquaints herself with the worlds
doings. She is, moreover, a patriotic
adopted city, contributing generously of
her means toward their material wei
fare and upbuilding."
He then spoke at considerable length
on the healing of the sick as taught by
Christ the destruction of human error
-sin-the annihilation of sickness, sor-
row and misery comparing the same
with the teachings of Christian Science.
A party of % people>from Topeka at
tended the lecture.

DYKES ABE NEARLY DONE
Only the Traps and Drains to Be
Put In.

When the five drains and traps are
built in the dykes which protect North
Topeka, that system of dyking viii be
complete and North Topeka will have
protection against such floods as that
OF last year.
All of the proposed dykes have been
built excepting the one on the river
near Rossville. That one was not
built on account of the excessive high
bids for the work. The RossviIle dyke
was for the protection of farm lands
west of town and is not necessary for
the protection of North Topeka. In d
few days five tile drains. with the
necessary masonry to protect them,
will be built in the North Topeka
dykes and traps, which viii allow the
water inside to drain out but will pre-
vent water from the river going
through, will be installed.

DEVELOPS new FRUIT.
California Wizard Makes Potato Bear
Above Ground.

San Francisco. April 28.-The Exami-
ner says today that Luther Burbank.
Of Santa Rosa. has succeeded in pro
ducing another wonderful creation
which will come under the head Of po-
tato experiments and is known as "a
potato fruit" Briefly summarized, the
evolution is a. matter of planting a tu-
Der and gathering from the potato vine
a luscious white fruit. one that is de-
hghtfully palatabIe and, makes excel
lent preserve. @@
Mr.. Burbank has named the potato
fruit "Pomato.' When compared with
a tomato the pomato is smaller in size
and its meat is white instead of red.
1t is highly favored.

Ex-MayOr R. L. COfran Has a
Word With Council.
Great Mistake to Charge More
for Gas Than Kansas City.
SLY MIR. HOLIDAY.
He Does What He Pleases With
the COuncilmen.
Ought to Decline to Vote on a
Franchise Of His Own.

Ex-Mayor r. L. COfran says that the
city council of Topeka is about to make
one of the greatest mistakes possible by
allowing the natural gas company to
get a franchise for gas at a higher rate
per 1000 feet than is charged in Kansas
City.
What the manufacturers and power
users of this town want is power on an
equality with Kansas City. Kansas
City is our greatest enemy. If the nat
ural gas company is allowed 10 charge
30 cents for gas power here, and 20 cents
in Kansas City, we viii be IN lust the
same box that we are now; gas win not
help us a bit. Kansas City VIII have
exactly the same advantage over US as
it has at present.
THE rate for gas in Topeka ought to
be fixed at 20 cents, the same as it is in
Kansas City, and it would be a terrible
mistake for the city council to allow
Charley Holiday to buHdoze il into
granting any other kind of a franchise.
Holiday gave q swell dinner the
other night. I don't know what it was
for, but heard several people say when
they heard of it, Well. Holiday wants
another gas franchise, I guess That
seems to be exactly what was up There
is certain CLIQUE in that council who
run around clinging to Holidays coat
tails, and win do whatever he says. I
am opposed to this one man power in
the council I think every man should
vote his own sentiments.
Personally, haven't a thing against
Holiday He is a royal good fellow,
and he likes to show people a good time
with somebody else's money. I don't
blame him for getting all he can out
OF the council for his gas company
That's business But I do blame the
members of the council
Il do think also, that Holiday ought
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1905-04-28

to have the modesty to decline to vote
on the granting of these franchises. He
admits that he is working for the gas
company He admits that he is pEesi-
dent and holds stock in the company.
Therefore he is in a very delicate posi-
ton, If he only knew it. He is running
right on the edge of expulsion from the
city council, and am firmly Of the
opinion, myself, that if anybody should
make the effort, he would be subject to
the penalties of the law which prohibit
city official from voting or acting
officially with intent to gain, directly
OF indirectly, and benefit, profit or Pc
cuniary advantage"

THE COUNTRY CLUB.
Makes Decided Change in Its PIaus
and Location.

The first meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the Topeka Country club was
held at the rooms of the Commercial
club last evening. About eighty mem
bers of the 226 who have signed were
present
A very radical change was made in
the location of the tract and the plan
of ownership. The original idea was
to purchase the Gage tract of ninety
acres adjoining Gage park west of the
city. This was abandoned and in
stead the club has decided TO lease
seventy acres of the Dudley tract
south of the city just beyond Quinton
Heights. All those present consented
to the change as the roll was called
for themselves and proxies repre-
scented.
The proposition which the directors
were authorized to accept is the leas-
ing of the Dudley tract for twenty
fve years at a rental rate OF $500 per
acre, that is $4,000 per year, with the
option of terminating the lease at the
end of ten years if the association
should desire to do SO. Several of the
stockholders present were very de-
cidedly opposed to changing the plan
and favored the Gage tract, but the
sentiment was emphatically the other
way. A strong effort had been made
to secure by purchase at least three or
four acres for the club house site, but
the Dudley heirs strenuously refused
to part with any of the tract other
than by rental. AS the shares are
one hundred dollars each the club
Will have a large fund for building and
improvements.
The end of the street car line Is at
present about four blocks distant from
the tract. 1t was the previous UNDER
standing that the city railway COM
pany would extend its lines to the
Dudley tract in event of the latter Sc
lection by the club, but letter was
read from President Myers last even
ing wherein he demanded cash
bonus of 50, 900 and a guaranty of GER
tain business before the line would be
built.
At the request of the directors the
question of liquor on the grounds was
brought before the stockholders. The
committee had previously overWhelm-
tngly decided against the serving Of
liquors, and without a dissenting vote
the stockholders last evening barred
/ LIQUORS from the grounds. The di-
rectors regarded the expression as
convincing and final and the bylaws
will be drafted accordingly
The following directors, who VIII
! later select officers, were chosen; H
T. Chase, c. B. Merriam. A. A Godard,
Clad Hamilton, H. L. Armstrong. T. D
Hammatt, E. H. Crosby, A. Fassler
and ". J. Black.

Pittsburg, Kan, April 28-Thomas
McNaIly, jr., of the Pittsburg Boiler
works, was caught in the line shaft at
the works and received severe in
juries. He was oiling the bearings
when his clothing was caught. His
body was whirled around two or three
times by the shafting before the ma
chinery could be stopped. Nearly all
his clothing was torn off, one of his
legs was badly mangled and he was
injured internally.
