WIRELESS TELEGRAPH
Probable that Wireless Telegraph
Station Will be put in Here.

PROBABLE tnat wireless Telegraph
Station Will be put in Here.
Last Friday telegram was received
by the Electric Light Plant here, from
the manager Of a wireless telegraph com.
pany in New York, asking if a sixty cycle
alternating current wes available here,
and stating that the company desired to
put In station at this point if the proper
current of electricity could be secured.
The current furnished by the light
plant here Is a 22O volt direct current. and
this tact was wired to the wireless COM
pany at New York. No further word has
been received from there, in regard to the
matter.
Although the current in use here
would not be directly available, by the
use of motors run by it, an alternating
current of high frequency could be secur-
ed, and II the wireless company Is very
desirous of establishing station here,
this will no doubt be done.

The above ticket was selected by the
Republican convention held in Topeka
yesterday.
The fight made upon the Ford county
candidate, W. j. Fitzgerald, py the fol-
lowers of w. r. StubDs, failed to weaken
his support Mr.. Filzgerald's friends
have contended almost from the brgin-
ming that he would have two thirds of
the votes in the convention. Judge
Clark, the opposing candidate, is strong
man, but his candidacy was weakened
BY the unfair methods adopted by some
of his friends, and newspapers at Topeka
and Kansas City that haye a state circu-
lation 10 Kansas Mr.. Fitzgerald was
tnisrepresented from the time that his
candidacy was announced. The Stubbs
people brought Judge Clark out for lieu
tenant Governor, and were determined
that no other candidate should be con-
sidered Their violent and bitter fight
for Judge Clark at once put him In the
attitude Of being candidate solely In the
interest of Mr.. Stubbs.
I've contest on Lieutenant Governor
resulted as predicted 10 last weeks Globe

The head of the ticket was nominated
by acclamation, Governor Hoch having
no opposition In the convention.
The contest for attorney general while
pretty evenly divided between fonr can
didates, S. M. Brewster, Fred s. Jackson,
Oscar Raines and A. E. Crane was set
tied on the second ballot by two of the
candidates Withdrawing and each throw
ing his strength to one of the remaining
two.
For the railroad board three new men
were selected, George Wheatley who is
at present on the board suffering defeat.
The ticket as whole is one Of the
best that has ever been presented to the
voters Of Kansas. There is not man
upon the entire ticket who is not worthy
OF the support of the voters.
= =. The resolutions do not approach the
stepping over point. There is no at
tempt at CHEAP grandstand play. The
platform Is positive statement, how
ever, that the Republican party In Kan
sas will persistently and honestly work
for enactment and enforcement Of laws
necessary to give every man and every
intEIsst square deal in Kansas. The
railroad plank is In harmony with the
policy OF President Roosevelt, as are also
the tariff and antitrust planks.

Ford county people who went to
Topeka to watch the wheels 20 round
during the few days preceding the state
convention were mighty proud Of their
home candidate Mr. Fitzgerald from
first to last made absolutely the best i'm
preston upon visiting Kansans OF any
OF the candidates for state office. The
Fitzgerald hea dquarters In the Copeland
hotel had continual thropg of visitors.
Mr.. Fitzgerald wac the host keeping open
house. He had a combination of sinceri.
ty good nature and hospitality that was
mighty taking, and his manner was free
from care, as though he was jovial, In.
terested spectator, iusteed of candidate.
The delegates warmed up to him, even
those who were instructed to vote against
him.
At some Of the headquarters the can

faces, and the atmosphere was depress.

the sun WAS shining on the Fitzgerald

NO FIREHOUSE
Rumor That Aldermen VIII Use
 Money For Playground.

There is q rumor about town to the effect that the aldermen are c0nsid- ering the adyisability of cutting out the appropriation for fire house on Baldwin street altogether and turn ing the money into fund for the purchase of an additional playground at the Webster school and such other school plans as the department of education favors. This would be do- ing great injustice to property owners in the south end, but it is a question if 1t would be quite so bad as to cut the appropriation and rec ommend that single house be built. Of course whatever the majority has decided upon will be carried out, but if the other fellows keep their eyes open they may see a way to upset ting their game. What great pity that politics cut such a figure in handling the annual appropriations. When Mir Elton was at the helm they. went through without scratch. The same thing happened during the regime of Thomas D. Barlow, not even democrat raising his voice against what the administration thought best. but on all occasions the republicans kick on general princi- pies and as consequence the interests of the public are imperiled and in too many instances wholly disregarded.

CHRISTMAS TREES
Some Prefer to Cut From Other
 Peoples Property.

Christmas trees and evergreens of various kinds are now coming into town from different districts and the price is low enough to enable any, body who cares for such thlnes to buy them. Notwithstanding this, many prefer to get them for noth. ing and all day yesterday the woods were full of youngsters felling young trees and carrying away such growths as suited them. This is . very poor way of observing tho re- currence of the nativity of the Re- deemer. to say nothing of the vicious object lesson 1t teaches those who are not yet old enough to know right from wrong. They cost little or noth. ing in the market. and besides they can easily be dispensed with, so that it would be much more in keeping with the spirit of Christmas to buy them or not have them at all.
 If man is not overburdened with Wealth and cannot afford sumptu- ous spread, he can bs honest and very happy on modest bill Of fare if he only tries to and gives up the idea that anything and everything he can get hold of when the owner Is not looking belongs to him.

THE cLANsMAN,"

After unprecedented advertising by court and otherwise. the much heralded drama. The Clansman." was presented at Polls theater Satur- day afternoon and evening before two pretty good audiences. What the colored race have to find fault with in the presentation as shown here is mystery. In fact the white people ought to be the ones to create a dis pute over the production. for the character of Governor Shrimp as played by white man was the most despicablc of all characters in the play. The play is good enough and tells good many truths. sometimes exaggerated at bit. but in the main about right. It is said that most of the objectionable features have been eliminated and if that Is 60 then The Clansman" can have a free field. for no one should object to its production in its present form. Those who have lived in the south say it Is not strong enough. while those who have never seen the south can find no serious objections to any part of it

SOAP WAS A MEDICINE.
Past Generation Had Great Belief la lts Efficacy.

'When was boy" said the old man. they often made me take lit. tie soap as a medicine. It did mo good.
 Soap was prescribed in the village for cramp. for sick headache. for . half dozen complaints. The people admitted that it was . nauseous dose, but on the other hand they pointed to its efficacy.
 When I was taken down my moth. CT would cut from the cake of yellow soap in the kitchen a chunk about as big as . chestnut.
 "'Now. sonny she would say. 'svaller this and shed holdIthe vel. low morsel in thumb and forennger close to my lips.
 "Td begin to whimper. The smell of it and the idea of the father that would form in my mouth-the lather I'd have to swallow-would fll me with despair. But my mother was in- exorable. With stih lips I'd take the soap into my mouth: I'd chew the soft and slippery stun a little. and then. with groan and dreadful gulp. I'd swallow it Horrors.
 "Horrors!" said the old man. smil. ing. T can still taste those doses of soap that were so common in the vii. lage in my boyhood."

The physicians had despaired of saving his life. when an. other patient. named Frsnceschini. . stout man, having more skin that he required for his personal use. offered to sell the coschman some. A bargain vas struck for 800 lire. which Gilbsrfi has promised 10 pay on the install. ment plan as soon as he is well enough to work. In the meantime Franceschini is being literally Gayed alive. and the removed portions of the epidermis are being transferred 10 Gil. bertrs body.

GIBBONS DEFENDS LEOPOLD.

Reports From Kongo of Atrocities
 Are Greatly Exsg9erated, He Says.
 BALTIMORE, Dec. 17.--Cariinal Gib- bons, replying to the declaration made by Rev. H. Grattan Guinness of Lon don that the cardinal is the power that has prevented joint action by England and the United States looking to the suppression of the alleged atrocities committed against the natives of the Kongo Free Stats, made the following statement:
 q have observed in the papers that an emissary of the Kongo Reform as. sociation has made personal attack on me for my attitude in defending King Leopold's Kongo administration against those unjustifable attacks, and I feel very grateful 10 the reverend gentlemen who were good enough on that occasion to get up and defend me. l note, however. that even my defend CTS excused me on the grounds of my ignorance of the question. My position on the matter has always been very clear. I have naturally means of keep ing in close touch with the situation through our missionaries who are on the spot.
 There has been d great amount of exagyeration in those stories of nal. administration. The king is wise as well as humane ruler. and we hear through missionary sources that when ever cases of cruelty have occurred as such things will occur nnder every human government-the king has been prompt to redress such abuses and to punish the offenders.
 This agitation against King Leo pold's administration to my mind is an. imated partly by religious jealousy and partly by commercial rivalry, and I wish to add that in defending the Bel gian administration of the Kongo I have no personal or selfish motives to subserve. but am actuated solely by sense of justice and fair play"

NEW PERIL FOR MANKIND.
Adornments of Femlninity the Cause
 of Much Trouble.

With a smothered ejaculation the man clapped his hand to his eye and the pretty girl sitting next to him blushed furiously. Then she left the car two blocks before she had reached her destination When she had alighted the man freed his mind.
 That's the second time today I've nearly lost my eyesight by one of those internal quills." he muttered. And this sort of thing has been go. ing on ever since the spring millinery came in. I've had my nose tickled, my hat knocked off and my chin scraped until I'm sick of it. Every hat bears one of these bristling weapons, and all set at such an angle that they are bound to make trouble to some one. They are not sewed down in a decent manner. but are thrust in so the feather end sticks way out one way and the pointed quill the other. They look as if some one had thrown them at the hat and they had stuck there. imagine the style was invented to prevent . wo- man from being crowded in the cars. Tor they serve to keep every one at . distance
 Just then the man lodged. but not quickly enough to prevent long scratch across his cheek as the wo- man the other side of him suddenly turned to look out of the window Chicago Inter Ocean.
