ing "A great many people have been
at the park during the past week. The
talk which has come up against such

management was determined to send
them to Louisville and from there to

and interesting. Naturally people will
object to their killing dogs and eat
ing them right in public, but prob
ably not word would be said if the
feast were made of hog or a cow.
The reason is quickly apparent. The
dog is an American pet,s and is prac-
tically a pet the world over. History
shows that the, Igorrotes, except some
tribes of American Indians. are prob
ably the only people who eat CANNES
The idea of devouring a carniverous
animal is disgusting and revolving to
almost any civilized person, but not so

They go about their task as if it

to them to sit down to a few big ket-

fore fine piece of roast beef, a fried

MONUMENT SAYS HOCH
Governor Suggests Mother Florence
Memorial.

Governor Hoch is heading a move
ment for some sort of a suitable me-
mortal to Mother Florence, the old
Salvation Army woman who was be-
loved by all the state house people
and state officers.
81 want to see something DONE" said
the governor this morning, "to show
the love and esteem in which Mother
Florence was held by her state house
friends. 1 hardly know what shape
this memorial should take, but / am
heartily in favor of doing something.
This is where that dear old woman
worked day after day, and we all
know that if there was ever a good,
conscientious, Christian woman,
Mother Florence was one. 1 believe
everybody in the state house feels the
same way I do about this and I hope
somebody will suggest an appropriate
memorial"
All the other state officers feel very
much the same way about it, and it
would be easy to raise a large sum of
money for a Mother Florence memo
rial' in the state house alone.
One day Mother Florence had a lit
tie prayer meeting with Governor
Hoch in his private Office, and it was
quite customary for her to stop at a
state officers desk, tell him some in
teresting story about her mission work,
and then kneel down by his chair and
pray. 1t was all done with a sincerity
which won immense respect for the
old woman

SHEARD WILL WAIT.
Has Three Offers From White SOx
But Won't Sell Now.

Three direct offers have been made to
T. E. Sheard during the past week for
the purchase of the White Sox. Two
were calculated to take effect when the
season is over, and one Immediately. All
stipulate cash considerations. The pro-
positions were taken under advisement.

over" said Sheard today, but then that
does not mean ! don't want TO dispose
of the team. / have tried two years
and both times made dismal failure
of my attempts. I am willing to let
some one else have a crack at it,"
Then too, Sheard is awaiting the out

ley, the present captain of the Okla

outside of Armstrong, the best baseball
general in the Western Association.
bud wants 5000 per month. says
Sheard. That is a little steep. But
then if he can show US how he can put
in a good team here next year without
costing too much, we may decide to give
him the control. and see if we cannot
on a third attempt put a winning team
in this city"
The offers made to Sheard come from

MUST PAY FOR WATER.
That Is Situation Faced by Board of
Education.

When the board of education finds
that it must pay for the water used in
the city schools there viii be consid-
cradle surprise manifest and the school
board treasury will receive a blow.
1t is estimated that the water used
in the schools will cost from $4,000 to
$4,000 a year. Heretofore the board of
education has paid nothing for the
water used. 1t was provided in the
franchise given the old water COM
pany that the schools should be sup
piled with water free of charge The
board of education has never had to
figure on the cost of water.
The ordinance regulating the water
works provides that no water shall be
furnished free. Even the city will pay
for the fire hydrants and a special tax
levy to provide money for paying
hydrant rentals had been levied.

STOPPED THE AIR-DoME.
Box Office Receipts Attached and Per-
Torrance Stopped by Mistake.

The box office receipts at the Air
Dome theater~were attached last night
by Crane & Co., and the performance
stopped for few moments. Some
one Numbered, for it was not the Air
Dome people who had contracted or
owed the debt. AS soon as the mis-
take was discovered the receipts were
released and the performance went
along as usual. 1t seems that the for
mer proprietors of the vaudeville the
alter near the corner of Fourth street
and Kansas avenue were the people
who owed Crane & Co., and the mis-
take was made in supposing that the
persons who are operating the Air
Dome were the same ones who form
er1y operated the theater further down
Kansas avenue.

1000 Strong.

According to the statement of a
Leavenworth paper, 1000 people,-more
than most people are aware that town
contains,-will be on hand for the ball
game at Association park Sunday af-
ternoon- Three excursion trains will
leave LeaveEWorth in the morning.
The LeaVenworth fans will make
minute examination of the city after the
game, and some will visit the state
house.
The last time an excursion from
Leavenworth accompanied the Wood
peckers, a large bunch of money was
brought along to bet on the game. To-
peka sports refused to take the bets,
greatly to their sorrow, as the Sox
actually won the game.
Confident that the Topeka players are
down and out, the LeavenWoFth bunch
will attempt to place money on this ser
les. They are satisfied that there is one
team they can beat-the White Sox.
