Thank City hallway.

DR.. Evans, chairman of the executive
committee, has given the following
statements to the press: I'VE desire
thus publicly to acknowledge our in
debtedness to the Topeka Street Rail-
way company for the magnificent way
in which they handled the children in
Mondays parade, bringing them from
the distant points and assembling them
at the center with remarkable prompt
ness on the hour. I have never seen
procession of even one-half this mag
nitude which moved so nearly on the
hour appointed as did the children S
parade Monday. Most of this was due
to the regularity of the street cars. In
addition I cannot too highly commend
the extended liberality of the company
through Mr.. Patten. its manager, for
their coming to our rescue in transr
porting the children to their homes
after the exercises had been concluded.
The hearty thanks. not only of this
committee, of which am chairman.
but of the pastors and evangelists and
the parents of all the children are due
to this company. and representing all
these interested, I make this public
expression of gratitude.

MANY AFTER m.
lively Contest for Position of Parole
Omcer.

q. A. Davis, the Topeka man who
ran on the Democratic ticket for
member Of the city council from the
Epurth ward in 1902. has now come
ont as one Of the leading candidates
Gor appointment to the position Of
parole officer of the state penitentiary
under the Republican administration.
AlE, Davis is pushing his candidacy
vigorously before Governor HOch, and
thinks he has good show to land
the Job.
AIr. Davis is wealthy. and has a
butcher shop in Topeka. He is
native Of North Carolina and when
boy Of 16, ran away from home to
avoid serving in the Confederate army.
EIe enlisted in the federal army and
served through the war. So far Mr..
Davis record is good, from a political
standpoint, but there are other things
which may work against him in his
present efforts to land a job.
But Mr.. Davis is not the only one
Wlo is making an aggressive fight for
this place, which pays only 1000 a
year and expenses. 1t is difficult to
see exactly why there is such a scram-
bic for the job, but it seems to be very
desirable for some reason.
F'asides John Higgins. of LeaveD-
worth. who was the man at first slated
for the place, there are a number OF
candidates. Higgins is an old soldier
and. is said to have the backing of p.
III Coney and other G. A R. leaders.
But there is a lot of opposition to him
at LeavenWorths where he has been
active in politics in the anti-Anthony
faction.

Ter county, who is now occupying the
position Of top guard" at the peniten-
tiary coal shaft, Is one of the candi-
oates. He was here to see the gov
ernor today. and thinks he stands a.
good show to land.
=. G. Dustin, a guard employed at
the federal prison. is also after the job
He has a good record as a prison Of
Gnial.
"A man named Hardman, from Neo-
aao county is another candidate. John
Bedman, Of Greenwood county, who
was a candidate for the place when it
Was first created. would like to get
the job
Governor Hoch has not managed to
reach a decision among all these ap-
piicants I'D to this time, in spite of his
conference with Warden Haskell about
the situation last Saturday. Since Mr..
Haskell is obliged to cooperate ex-
t4nsively with the Parole officer in the
discharge of his duties it is of impor-
tncs that he have a voice in the Sc
lection of the man.

An organization was formed
by a man to advertise the fore

plan was to take the best book
written by an author. Put it up
IN an edition to sell at 25e and
put out a limited number of copies.
This organization selected 40 authors
to advertise in this way. They in
tended to publish a hundred thousand
of each book. When it came to pub
fishing four million books. however.
they found the job too big, and the
association went into bankruptcy.

to extend the benefits of life insurance,

was not to pay one cent during the
