GIRLS HEAD FOUND.
Believed to Be the Missing Portion Of
the Body of Susan Geary.

Boston, Nov. 6.-What is confident
ly believed to be the head of Susan A.
Geary, the dress suit case victim, has
been recovered in leather handbag
from the bottom of the harbOr. It
was dragged to the surface very near
the point where Lewis w. Crawford
and William Howard, who have con-
fessed to disposing of the dismem-
bered body of the girl, said they
dropped it from the stern of an East
Boston ferryboat.
The head completes the body of the
girl The trunk was found on Sep
TENDER 81 and the limbs picked up
October q. The leather bag in which
the head had been placed, together
with thirty pounds of loose shot, did
not move apparently from the place
where it sank
The bag with its contents was taken
to a Howard street undertaking estab-
lishment, and will be viewed by Med
ioal Examiner Francis A. Harris.
The head was in a good state of pres
ervation, and it is thought by the po-
lice that it will be readily recognized
as that of Miss Geary.
The police continue the search for
Mary S. Dean, who is said to have
had charge of the home in which Miss
Geary died, after being removed from
the fremont street resort. The hunt
for the woman has been without re-
suit, and it is believed that she left
the city as soon as she fearned of the
arrest of Crawford and Howard.
Crawford and Howard will probably
remain in New York for several days,
until the necessary papers for their
extradition are approved by Governor
Higgins

TRIED TO KILL WOMAN

Lena McGruder, a negro woman, was
stabbed at $50 this morning by John
jackson, a negro who worked for W.
". Manspeaker.
Jackson met the woman on Sixth
street, between Quincy and Kansas
avenue, knocked her down and then
jumping on her back, stabbed her be-
tween the shoulder blades with a large
pocket knife. The knife penetrated
lung. and the girl may die. The girl
says she useds to "go with Jackson,
and he was Jealous.
She was removed to her room, at 524
Kansas avenue and attended by DR..
Taylor.
Policeman bob" Miller went to the
Manspeaker residence in search of
jackson, but found that he hal left a
half witted cousin to do his work. MI
Ter quilted" the substitute into telling
where jackson had gone. Under strong
persuasion he said that Jackson had
gone to the home of his grandmother,
who lives in Highland Park.
Miller and Sergeant Voiles drove out
to Highland Park in the patrol wagon,
but when they approached the house
where Jackson was concealed, the fugi-
tive ran out and gave the officers a
tWo-mile foot race through sWampy
corn fields and over fences, ravineS and
hedges The officers fired several shots,
and after his capture Jackson said that
several of the bullets passed within
few inches of him and cut down corn
stalks. They chased him far into the
country before a long range shot from

work, and evidently knew the route she
would take.

Prince Louis goes to Mount Vernon

Saturdays contest will be the great
football event of this section of the
country. Primarily it carries with it
the championship of the state. Every
college of consequence in Kansas has
been vanquished by them both. But
there is still another honor in store
for the winner: it will determine the
champion for four states-Oklahoma
Arkansas, Texas, and Kansas. Both
Washburn and Kansas have trOunced
Oklahoma, who in turn defeated
Texas. Kansas early in the season
defeated Arkansas.
Washburn will be outweighed. The
Sons of Iehabod average 1872 pounds,
while the warriors of the blue and
crimson tip the scales at a general
average of III pounds. That will
make considerable dinerence in the
ability of the two teams to execute
mass plays. Kansas with Donald and
Drummer to hurl into the line on mass
plays, with the marvellous football ma
chine Pooler at the apex of practically
each formation, will test the much
Wanted defense of Washburn to its
very limit Donald and Drummer are
powerful catapults and the way they
hurtle into a line is something fearful
to speculate upon. But John Outland,
the Blue coach, is hard at work to fix
up defense for the especial purpose
of blocking these batteringr gram for
nations. I'VE viii work behind closed
gates all this week" he said today.

though the team has improved Won
derfully in the last two weeks on their
ability to stop mass plays. But Brun-
ner and Donald are the two Kansas
men we want to stop. If we succeed
in that-well, but I don't want to fore
cast anything"

head off these big fellows? ?" was
asked

The Conquest

by BOOTH HARRINGTON

The growing volume Of enthu-

tended the serial publication of

warrants the assertion that this
is the greatest novel that Booth
Harrington has written.
It is the story of the winning
Of a woman and the winning of
honor, a story so overmastering
in its intensity of interest, so
sweeping in sympathetic enthu-
siasm, that the reader, carried

all but the fortunes of Her and of

PRESSURE is ABUNDANT
Natural Gas Is Actually at the out
skirts of Topeka.

Natural gas was turned on in the
pipe line to Topeka Sunday morning
to test the pressure. The pressure is
there 200 pounds to the square inch.
1t was turned on at the junction south
OF Lawrence at 9 o'clock and in about
"A minutes it had reached the Topeka
end of the line. The pressure will be
reduced to some II or Is pounds to
the square inch through the instru-
mentality of the reducing station
which is built at the end of the pipe
line near the Topeka cemetery. The
reducing station contains heavy ma
ch1nery and a system of valves for
bringing down the gas pressure.
Tt is expected that the station will
be in working order by Tuesday or
Wednesday of this week. At present
the heavy rain of Saturday evening
covers the machinery and the excava-
ton for the reducing station with
water. A portion of the excavation is
caved in.
A line walker has been sent out
along the line to Sc if any leaks exist
between here and the junction with
the Lawrence line
1t is expected that either this after
moon or Tuesday the pipe line viii be
blown out" the cap at this end of the
line viii be taken off and the gas per
mitted to come through without re-
strlcton at its 200 pounds pressure to
the square inch. The blowing OUT
will remove all the foreign particles in
the pipe.
The local gas company have not vet
completed their extensions to the pipe
line and for this reason gas will not
be turned on for distribution through
the. mains in the city until about the
18th.

SEEKS DIVORCE AT so.
Pathetic Case Of an Aged Couple at

Leavenworth, Kan. Nov. ga pa
court court saturday Wv where sought Remboid
kim, aged 81 years, to be divorced
from his wife, Ottila. 90 years old in
January, to whom he has been mar
ried for over As years. Both the plain
tiff and the defendant were on the wit
ness stand and in spite of the extreme
ages their minds appeared clear and
they have remarkable memories for
dates and things that have happened in
their married life
After about 80 Witnesses had given
testimony Judge Gilpatriek took the
matter under Amusement. No doubt a
decree of divorce will be granted. The
old couple are unable to longer agree
and positively refuse to live together
again. The husband seems to be bit
ter toward his wife, but she is more
lenient as she said while on the wit
ness stand when telling of former i'll
ness of his:
Il went to him; I said that I would
be there to take care of him in his last
hours"
The quarrel seams to be over a de
vision of property.

reservations started recently by the
officials here
The act of congress of May 27, 1902,
authorizes the sale of inherited Indian
lands subject to the approval of the
secretary OF the interior, and provides
that such sales shall be made under
rules and regulations to be prescribed
by the secretary of the interior. Here
tofore the rules have not been explicit
as to the sale of LIQUORS on the lands
after they pass from the possession of
the Indians. According to the order
made public today if liquor is sold the
transfer becomes void and the lands
revert 70 the person or persons selling
them. The order is as follows:
That no malt, spurious or vinOus
liquors shall be kept or disposed of on
1 the premises conveyed and that any
NlOiallOn OF this condition either by
grantee or any other person claiming
IlsutS from said party of the second
part shall render the conveyance void
and cause the premises to revert to
the party of the first part, his heirs
and assigns"
Representative Curtis. of ToDeka
who was at the interior department.
stated that he regarded the order of
secretary Hitchcock as of very great
importance. Said he:
Under that order the sale of liquor
VIII be absolutely prevented upon hun
dreds of thousands Of acres in indian
territory, both before and after the
| territory obtains statehood. A large
number of sales have been made to
persons who propose to stablish town
sites, and, Of course, the order will
apply al towns as well as elsewhere.
Inc action of the secretary seems to
me to settle the liquor question, so far
as large area of the territory is con
cerned."
Under the provisions of the act au-
thorizing the sale of the inherited
lands, PIP, 457 acres had been disposed
of which the Indians realized $500
5s6. Every nation in the territory viii
be affected. as well as all other In
dams who hold lands subject to sale
under the act referred to. The hold
ers of inherited lands are expected to
appeal to congress for legislation that
VIII prevent the order of the secretary
from becoming effective, and, failing
70 OBTAIN such legislation, it is believed
they will appeal to the courts to have
it set aside.

The First Methodist church needed

Lots of people came to see what was

the platform on which was drawn with
chalk large white elephant divided into
SQUARE lines
This. said DR.. Evans, "is our white
elephant We have him in the form of a
debt OF 81 40, which must be paid. 1t
costs us just s9-72 a month to keep him,
and since We can not stand that expense
lets get rid OF him"
And with a sponge in his hand, DR..
evans talked to the audience, and in two
hours the sum was raised. Each time
money was given he would wipe part of
the elephant out of existence.

Police Are Looking for Middle Aged
Tell Woman.

Paterson, N. J Nov. 6-The police
are looking for a middle-aged woman
who has been masquerading for some
time past as the wife of James J. Hill,
the railroad man. She spoke often of
her private car. her residence at New
port and her many automobile excur-
sions through California and the west.
She is quite tall, of distinguished bear
ing and talks well. Her plan is to Sc
cure an invitation to stop at a house
for a few days and then to secure a
loan while waiting for a check from her
husband. The police say that she has
imposed upon people here, at Mont
clair and in the Oranges.
