How Ex-Governor Peck and His Friend
Got Something to Eat.
Whenever George r. Peck gets back
to Kansas the papers can count upon
him for a good reminiscent story of
some kind. He was at Topeka the
other day, and as usual a bunch of old
friends gathered around him in the
Copeland lobby to talk over old times.
Colonel w. II. Rossington, the we'll
known Topeka lawyer, was in the
crowd. He and Peck have been warm
friends for a third of century. Peck
says that "Rossy" while q reporter on
a Kansas paper made MIN.
'Do you remember, Rosy, what a
time we had borrowing $50 in Topeka
about a third of a century ago." ask
ed Peck.
Indeed l do" said Rossington, with
laugh.

thing to visit when your meal ticket
has about run out. Rosy hadn't met
with much success since sticking out
his shingle. Clients all seemed to pass
his door and stop at the office OF the
next lawyer. Becoming discouraged
Rosy wired for me to come to To-
peka. Upon my arrival here be met
me at the depot and we walked up

GRAND HAVEN, Mich, Oct. 90
Lightkeeper Charles Greenell, who has
charge of the beacon light at the end of
the government pier, is a prisoner today
in his station, the storm having washed
away the aerial tramway connecting
with the shore. With immense seas
washing over the breakwater it is i'm
possible for aid to reach him until the
storm abates, although he has had moth
ing to eat since going on duty early last
evening. The present storm is one of
the worst that ever visited this section,
the wind attaining a velocity of over
sixty miles an hour. The Goodrich liner
Indiana, Naomi, Normandie, Schooner
Wells and Carferry Grand Haven are
all safe in shelter here.

ARGUMENTS IN
CHADWICK CASE
Lawyers Make Closing Pleas
in Trial Of Cleveland
Woman
ACCUSED PALE AND NtRVORs

Cleveland. o., March 11.--Today will
see the close Of the present trial Of
Mrs. Chadwick, and the case will prob
ably be given to the jury late this af-
ternoon. Judge Taylor announced that
Il was his intontion to keep at the
present case until It Is finished, and he
directed that all other court bills be
passed until Monday morning.
The entire day was given over to ar
guments. half Of the total number hav-
ing been disposed or Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Thomas II. Garry spoke
FIRST, and Judge Wing, for Mrs. Chad
wick, took up the rest Of the day with
the exception Of one-half hour just be-
fore the adjournment OF court. This
time was taken by j. p. Dawley. senior
counsel for the defense, who is to de-
liver the main argument for Mrs. Chad
wick. After him will come District
Attorney Sullivan. who will close for
the government. The latter is not
given TO the extended speeches, but II
is believed that both he and Mr.. Daw-
ley will require more time than one
session Of the court for all they wish
to say.
It was a trying day for Mrs. Chad
wick. and her pale face and nervous
manner showed that the strain OF the
trial is telling on her. During the
greater part OF he afternoon she sat
back in her chair as IL greatly ex-
hausted. The attack made by Mr. Gar
ry upon her financial methods dis
turbed her greatly When he showed
the jury by her own checks that with
out having money in the bank she had
secured loans amounting to t1s7,000,
and 100000 OF II on one day. when
the total amount which the bank could
legally loan TO one person was but
$4,000. the prisoner sank back in her
chair as II she believed that the state
ments OF the attorney must have great
effect on the minds OF the jurymen.
She was greatly discouraged at the
time and said: Il have about given W
all hope. haven't any chance in this
court"
When her own attorneys we're max.
ing arguments she frightened up very
much. Her troubles will not be over
however. even II acquitted in the pres.
ent case. District Attorney Sullivan
