AN OLD RAILROAD SUIT.
This One Evidently Commenced in
Wrong Court.

If a Kansas man is killed in rail-
road accident in New Mexico, can his
administrator recover damages against
the railroad by bringing suit in a Kan
sas court?
This is the question which the Kan
sas supreme court will have to decide
in the case of Isaiah Swisher admins
traitor Of the estate of John W. Swisher
against the Santa Fe railway. The
case was tried in the Dickinson county
court, and decided in favor of the Santa
Fe.
The railway company showed that the
New Mexico law provides that claims
for damages for injury or death in &C
cidents must be brought in the courts
Of that state. It was also claimed that
Isaiah Swisher had no right TO sue as
administrator, because John Swishef
was not a resident Of Kansas, and the
Dickinson county court had no juris-
diction.
John Swisher was a Santa Fe fire.
man. and was killed in a wreck near
Colfax, N. M. in May, 1905. Ed Little
Of Abilene is attorney for Swisher.

THEY WANT BURRIS.
Second District Democrats Would
Nominate Him for Congress.

A movement has been started by
the G. A. R. men in the Second con-
gressional district for the nomination
of Judge John F. Burris of Olathe, as
the Democratic nominee for congress
in that district.
W. H. Ryan, chairman of the Dem
ocratic state central committee, was
at headquarters in this city today, and
speaking of this matter he said that
he had received a letter from Nelson
F. Akers. of lola, telling him of the
sentiment which has been developed
among the veterans of the district for
the nomination of Judge Burris The
old soldiers down there say that II
Judge Burris is given the nomination
they will get out and work hard not
only for his election but for the cleo
ton of the Democratic state ticket.
It seems that the G. A. R. men in
the Second district. majority Of
whom have heretofore trained with
the Republican party, have become
dissatisfied with Congressman Charles
Scott for his failure to secure the ap-
pointment of q candidate for a post
mastership who was backed by them.
The McCook G. A. R. post at lola
recently passed resolutions condemn
ing Congressman Scott for the action
he took in regard to this postmaster
ship, and since that time the move
ment has been under way to have the
Democrats nominate Judge BurTis.

LAWYER BECOMES A HERDER.
VIII Operate Dairy Farm to Furnish
Free Milk to Poor Children.

Seattle, Wash, July he. Holton
James, q prominent Seattle lawyer
and society man, has forsaken his
profession and society to lead the life
of a COW herder, in order to learn the
practical side of the dairy business
It is Mr.. James intention to spend
part of his large fortune in operating
dairy farm about sixty miles from
Seattle that will furnish milk free to
the children of the poor.
Mr.. James is a nephew of Henry
James, a novelist, and of William
James, a well known Psychologist and
Harvard professor. He graduated
from Harvard in 1895
For q month, unknown to his for
mer friends, F{r. James has been en-
ployed as a COW herder on the Paul
Hamus dairy ranch In Sumner %
miles from Seattle. Together with
the German hands on the ranch, he
has been rising at ia the morning to
milk the cows. He asked for no con-
sideration, and has been treated the
same as the other help.
Mr.. James declared today he had
quit society and the law forever. AS
soon as he becomes proficient in the
dairy business he will buy a ranch.
He says he has always been a Social
list, and is warm admirer Of j.
Phelps Stokes.

bands ambitions. viii go to England

FIXING UP THE DEPOT.
Union Pacific Is Making the Old One
Over.

The project for new Union Pacific
passenger station in North Topeka.
seems to have been temporarily aban-
doned by the officials of that rail-
road.
Instead extensive improvements are
under way on the old structure, which
it is intended will facilitate the hand
ling of the business at this point so
that the new station will not be neces-
sary for another year or TWO.
A new waiting room IS being made
by remodeling the room which for
merly served as the Office for the
Union Pacific hotel. The hotel dining
room was encroached upon for enough
space to make an Office for the hotel,
and although the Office is not as large
as heretofore, it is thought it will
serve the purpose.
The new waiting room will be COM
modious and will thus permit of a
suitable place for women to wait. Both
waiting rooms will be newly deco
rated.
The ticket and telegraph Office is
being enlarged also, SO that this Office
Will have double the floor space here
tOfOre occupied.

SCARED AT SOLDIERS.
Horse Runs Away and Nearly Kills
Seven-Year-OId Boy.

While playing in front of his home
watching the soldiers pass little George
Metzger, the 7-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. c. r. Metzger of 1915 West Tenth
avenue. was badly injured
A widow was driving into town about
about ten o'clock this morning and at
the Metzger residence she passed the
soldiers who were marching through
TO Fort Riley. Her horse became
frightened at a red flag which the
signal corps was carrying and SHE'D
over into the parking where some little
boys of the neighborhood were playing
In the sand. Little Ralph O'Neill was
run over and was badly hurt.
Mrs. Metzger. who lives at 1915
West Tenth, saw the little boy get hurt
and ran out to assist him and while
doing this her own little boy was
kicked in the forehead. causing a large
fracture above his right eye and in
juring his scalp. DR.. H. H. Keith was
notified and arrived shortly after in his
automobile, and he temporarily
dressed the wounds. The little boy
was taken to the hospital and is in
pretty bad condition but it IS thought
that he will recover.
G. r. Metzger, the father of the lit
tie boy, is very indignant over the ac-
cident and blames the soldiers for its
occurrence. 1t will probably be sew
eral weeks before the injured lad viii
be able to be around.

and Cutbirth who was riding with the
hack driver got down on Of the seat TO
demonstrate with the drunken crowd
when he was stabbed by Dodson. When

CUT OFF By RIVER.
oscar Kuehne Loses Sixty Acres of
Farm and Neighbor Claims It.

The freak of the kaW river during the
hood Of the spring of 1903, was respon-
sible for a suit commenced in the dis
trict court yesterday by W. G. Fair
that it took from the farm of Oscar
Kuehne and attached to the property
of Clayton Hummer on the opposite
side of the river. The disputed tract
of land lies six miles northwest of To-
peka and contains about so acres which
IS valued at 800 per acre.
Hummer claims that the land was at
tached to his property through no cause
of his own and that as the river has
always been the boundary between the
two farms that it IS yet, even though
abouts60 acres have attached themselves
to his property.
The river continues to cut away the
land belonging to Mr.. Kuehne and is
carrying it down stream and depositing
1t on the opposite bank.
A year ago last May the supreme
court handed down a decision in the
case Of Nebraska vs.. Missouri, that the
, old channel of the Missouri river and
not the new channel was the boundary
| line between the two states. This case
being handed down by the supreme
court Of the United States is of more
consequence than one coming from a
state court inasmuch as it is the court
of last resort.
Mr.. Fairchild, attorney for Mr..
Kuehne, says the question has been de-
eided In many of the states He says
the fact that the boundary between
Soldier and Tecunseh townships is the
old bed of the KaW river makes his
case the stronger, inasmuch as the de-
PENDANT never owned any land in Te-
cunseh township, and says that this
case presents the Identical question of
the Nebraska VS.. Missouri case One
is deciding the question between two
townships While the other is deciding
the question between many townships

Mrs. Pearl J. Collins and Mr.. F. E.
Collins a Republic county couple who
failed in their efforts to tear asunder
the marriage bonds in the Sedgwiek
county court because the court
thought neither one deserved the de-
cree Will air their grievances in The
Kansas supreme court.
The bitter fight which Mr.. and Mrs.
Collins waged in the lower court had
for Its principal object the care and
custody of six-year-old daughter
Isabel and the court decided that
neither of the parents was a suitable
guardian for the child. It gave the
baby to Margaret Collins of Bellevi;le,
Republic county, who will take care of
it until some futher disposition is made
by the court
Mr. and Mrs. Collins were married
at Belleville on May 8, 1898. They
seemed to get along pretty well so long
as they lived on their farm. but when
they moved to Wichita in 1904, trouble
started without delay. Mrs. Collins
claimed that her husband went to
drink Sg. and that he led her a terrible
life. Mr.. Collins asserted that his
wife was going out unattended to dis
reputable dances, and Frightening evil
resorts. The court seemed to think
that each side proved its case, because
It fatty refused to give either one a
divorce. Mrs. Collins appeals the case
to the supreme court, and the court
ordered that she give bond for $4,000.
When that bond is given the court viii

COOLEY'S BIG OFFER.
Refused $500 Each for Forester and
8fcInnis and $500 for Downs.

Rumors are going the rounds of a
big deal in baseball circles that is
somewhat of the sensational order. It
is said on reliable authority that Wich-
tia is after McInnis and Forester, the
crack twirlers of the White Sox and
who are two of the best pitchers in
the assOcia ton The report is that ST.
200 has been offered for the pair, which
is as much as Cooley and Grow paid
for the whole Topeka team. It is we'll
known fact that the new management
is going to spend lots of money in
placing a good team in the windy city
and this report is right in line with
some other big deals that are on.
Manager Dick Cooley smiled when
asked about the story. 1T is party
true said he. but If any one thinks
that I am going to let any one have
McInnis or Forester he is badly mis-
taken 1t is true that an agent of the
Wichita management did offer me ST.
200 for the two pitchers but I turned it
to sell. I would be a sucker to sell
some of my best men right now when
We are after the pennant with all our
might. I would rather sell McInnis and
Forester for $500 at the end of the sea-
son than to get 81 200 for them now. I
ing to get the pennant if we can and
that is why I am on the lookout for
new players all the time"
Manager Cooley then went into his
pocket and brought out a telegram. It
was from Dick Holmes, manager of the
Lincoln team in the Western league. It
contained an offer of $500 for Downs,
said Cooley. well, I guess not" and
he slyly winked his right eye. You
just tell me when I sell any players
who are making good"
