STUBS DENIES IT.
Hasn't Formed a Partnership With
Senator DolIey.

w. R. Stubs and J. N. DoIley were
both in Topeka today, and united in
an emphatic declaration that they
have not formed a partnership in the
contracting business. A rumOr to this
effect was circulated.
The W. R. Stubs contracting COM
pany is still doing business in the
same way it has been doing business
for the past 20 years" said Mr.
Stubs this morning. This story
about Dolley Moody and myself going
into partnership is all hot air. Some
reporter was hard up for something
to print. I imagine. Mr.. Dolley and
Mr. Moody formed a partnership for
the contracting business during the
last legislature, and they are getting
a good deal of work around in various
places. But they have nothing what
ever to do with the W. r. StubDs COM
pRny."
Mr.. Stubs stated that his family
would move back to Lawrence about
May 1, and that it was his under
standing that F. o. Popenoe would re-
sumo his residence at the POpenOe
place which the Stubs family has
been occupying.
q don't expect to be in Topeka
much of the time myself from now
on" said Mr. Stubs. Il will be out
on the road looking after some work
that 1 have in hand"
This morning Mr.. Stubs and Mr..
Dolley called at Governor Hoch's Of
fee, but the governor was absent fill
ing an appointment of strictly non
political nature with the dentist, and
so T. A. McNeal represented him in a
long conference of triumvirate in the
governors private office.

Bob Miller Interviews TicISIin Harper

Miller opened fair and warmer last
night when he took the g to s. beat.
In years agone, one "Ticklin' Har-
per was considered very bad negro,
and emigrated to Lawrence. From that
base of supplies he made frequent for
avs into Topeka but seldom stayed long
enough for the police to lay mitts upon
him. Last evening Mr.. Miller walked
out on his beat, and began to look
around. While he was looking around
he spied Mr.. Harper wearing a jag and
Other stylish garments, coming UP the
principal pike Stepping from con-
venient stairway Mr.. Miller remarked,
"Howdo. Wharya. Comedown. Hence,

This was according to an order issued
by the mayor and chief to the effect
that no bad actors, white or black
should be allowed to light in the village.
Mr.. Harper was considered bad medi-
cine. The police claim that he is a
member of a firm of crooks who run a
business in Lawrence. 1t is said that
this firm viii take orders for anything
from q feather buster to a typewriter
or thrashing machine, and deliver it
within ten days at far below cost.
Therefore Mr.. Harper, of Collins case
fame, was not considered a desira bic
visitor. Within an hour of his arrest
Harper he secured a 5000 bond, and was
once more at large, but he kept in the
shade AS soon as Sergeant VOileS
found that he had escaped on bond, he
issued orders to pinch him again if
he showed up He did not show up.

name of DR.. Eyman, of Frankfort.

have appeared before him have entered
a plea of guilty. Last evening he made
only one venture. When plain drunk

That was all he had to say Perhaps,

Cut of Oil Prices VIII Close Many
Wells.

Muskogee, 1. T.. April 1s.-Indian
Territory oil producers realize that
they are in a fair way to be forced
either to close down most of the pro-
ducing wells or else lose much money
operating them and selling the pro-
duct to the Standard Oil company. A
territory producer said today that the
last cut of five cents made by the
Standard company would render all
the wells in the territory producing

The city treasurer holds that this does

for the decrease in the balance is the
slowness with which the county taxes
