DRANK A GALLON OF CIDER.
Heart Failure Caused Death of Fred
erick RappoId.

An autopsy held on the body of Fred
erick Rappold, the farm hand who was
found dead in the door yard of r. K
Wallace, his employer, near Tecumses
Tuesday midnight. disclosed the fact
that death was due directly to heart
failure and not from violent means as
was suggested by a bruise found on
one side of his head.
The testimony of the witnesses ex-
amined showed that during the after
noon he had drank at least one gallon
of fresh cider and perhaps more, and
that later in the evening he had taken
a chaser" of a half pint of poor
grade of whisky.
The action Of the cider and whisky
was the direct cause of his DEATH said
Coroner Keith this morning. for the
heart had almost completely collapsed
so that there was no chance for the
passage of blood and as a natural
consequence death ensued. There Will
be no inquest as I am satisfied from the
facts developed at the autopsy that his
death was from natural causes ~
duced probably be heavy drinking"

The steepness of the stairs which
lead from the gallery and balcony
exits on the north side of the building
were condemned and characterized as
a veritable passageway of death.

The building committee of the coun-
ell has found the Grand safe and so

Wilmarth THE building ordinance
covering theaters in Topeka is not

anything as to the kind of construction
to which theaters must be held in the
city, It simply provides that in case
the theaters are found to be unsafe
they may be regulated and closed
The public buildings committee of
the council could not do better than
draft new ordinance covering the
essentials of theater construction.
Chief Wilmarth finds himself hamper

Contractors in charge of the work ex-
planned that they had started the men
on an eight hour day at pay of sS1.60
day, but the men wanted to work an
additional hour for the extra pay of 20
cents an hour and that they had con
suited with attorneys VINO had told
them that they would be within the law

Mr.. Davidson explained to the con-
