Indiana, near Logansport, and was 73
years OF age. He came to Kansas in
1857 and the next year located the
farm about three miles north of North
Topeka on which he lived for many
years His patent was signed by James
Buchanan, president. Mr. Kistler was
one of those who took an active inter-
est in the days that tried the souls of
those who fought and Iabored to make
Kansas free He and his brother
George were both in the battle of the
Blue. Some twenty-five years ago he
practically retired from farm work
and moved to North Topeka. where he
erected a store building on Kansas
avenue and was for a time in the gro
Gerry business. Mr.. Kistier was one of
the old guards which will ever hold q
dear place in the hearts Of all who
know of early Kansas days. Day by
day they are passing down the line Of
life and soon they will be known only
in the memories of those left behind
but in history the work they did for
erations that will perpetually rise TO
call them blessed. Mr.. Kistler left

HIS TALK SLIPPED a COG.
So Sfr. Jack IaidIer Must Work Out
$25 Fine.


This was quiet morning for Mon
day in the police court and there was
little doing Two DRINKS who could
not resist the temptation to tank IN
Sunday paid for their privilege with
five dollar fines as they were not old
offenders and two ''vags'' were az
sessed fines of SIS each as a reminder
that Topeka is a good town to leave off
of their visiting list
One OF them, Jack Ladder. made a
thousand dollar talk and one that
would have gained him his freedom in
most any other court in the land ex-
cepting the one presided over by judge
Urmy- He denied that he had ever
been arrested before and insisted that
he had been out of the city for the
past year Judge Urmy had an idea
that his face was rather familiar one
and questioned him sharply but he in
sisted on hanging to the story which
he must have spent most of the night
rehearsing when Jailer Kinney was
called IN and spoiled it all by recogniz-
ing him as an old offender who has
portion of an unpaid fine or two
standing against him which he prom
ised when released to pay on the IN
stallment plan
At that he might have escaped with
lighter fine If he had not tried to de-
ceive the judge who IS a firm advocate
of the enforcement OF the ninth com
u1andment which says Thou shall
not bear false witness. Lying may
be excused sometimes = said the Judge,
especially when the liar gets away
with it, but in this instance you are
caught IN the act" st know" said tn e
defendant, that am caught and now
that you have mentioned it I am sure
that I was here some time ago but If
you VIII make the fine a light one I
can get the money to pay II from a
friend and I VIII promise that I will
not appear here again I have quit
drinks and have been on the water
wagon for more than two years and
am trying to do better.
~ our fine Will be S25," said Judge
Urmy. Take him away. Mr.. Jailer,
and perhaps a term on the rock pile
with time for meditation will break
him Of lying. to me at any rate

Of resourcefulness and ingenuity.
The principals ia this piece are
travellers in s.Abyssinia" and among
many other things they extensively adj
vertise Kansas in the land of the
Queen of Sheba.
This is the first time Williams and
Walker have failed to attract capacity
business in Topeka A number OF
reasons have been assigned as the
cause one of them being that the col
ored population do not turn out for
Sunday performances. Very likely the
scale of prices charged for the attrac-
ton had more to do with the small at
tendance than any other one thing.
sAbyssinia" has been appearing In
nearby cities at a scale Of prices up to
one dollar, but the dollar and a half
scale prevailed at Topeka for both af-
ternoon and night performances.
