BAD BOYS AROUND
PUBLICBATHHOUSE
Cut Holes in Frame Structure
and Write Objectionable
Matter in DiSrOblng Closets

Boys will be boys" is an old say
ing, but a certain class of youths who
put in a good bit of their time in the
vicinity of the public bath house in
Brandywine Park, have overstepped the
mark in their search for something
new to do. A number OF holes have
been cut through the frame structue on
the north side of the pool and through
them, sights can be seen, particularly
on days set apart for the opposite sex,
and sticks can also be conveniently
pushed through, much to the discom-
future Of the bather.
Another practice which should not
be tolerated under any conditions, is
the writing Of obscene poetry and
phrases in the disrobing closets. Not
only do the small boys see these things
but they are also there for women and
girls to see on the days set apart for
them Though washed off frequently.

perpetrators could only be caught and
made an example Of the practice would

TO SEE ABOUT IT.
Mr.. Robinson Goes South to Prevent
Coal Strike If Possible.

W. D. Robinson, assistant secretary
of the state society Of labor and in
dustry, has gone to Pittsburg and
other southern Kansas points for the
purpose of seeing what can be done
to avert the coal strike, so far as Kan
sas is concerned.
1t Is believed that the defeat of the
Ryan resolution at the national min
ers' convention opens up the way for
the settlement OF the Kansas difficulty
without reference to the action of the
eastern miners. It Is understood that
the Kansas operators are willing to
concede the demands of the miners
and the strike here would be merely
of a sympathetic nature.
MI. Robinson, who is acting as
peacemaker on behalf of the state of
Kansas, is himself a member of the
miners union. He worked in the
southern Kansas field for many years
PRIOR TO his connection with the state
labor department. He is therefore in
a position to understand the needs Of
tne situation. He says in speaking Of
the situation:
In the year 1903 the miners CON
scented to a reduction in their wages
because the operators claimed that the
coal trade was depressed and that they
could not afford to continue paying the
existinF scale. This reduction in wa ees
the president of the union, advised it.
It IS fact to be Remembered that
| Mitchell recommended that the men
/ accept this reduction. after which it
/ was adopted by a referendum vote
Now the depression in the coal
/ trade Is passed and the miners think
/ that the time has come to restore the
/ old scale. The miners viii insist upon
/ a restoration. Instead the operators
/ think they have the miners on the run,
and want to make still further reduc-
tons"
Labor Commissioner ". L A. john
son said today:
Indications are that there will be a
/ strike in Illinois, and possibly in Ohio
and Pennsylvania. The fact that the
Ryan resolution was rescinded will, I
{ believe, enable the miners and operators
to get together in certain localities, I
believe that the chances are good for a
compromise Of the difficulties in this
state. The operators have signified a
willingness to make concessions to the
men. and Mr.. Robinson has gone down
there to see what the chances are for
/ reaching an agreement of some kind

MAYOR STARTS IT..
Sets in Motion the Largest Electric |
Generator in Kansas.

The massive 1000 horse power gen
orator of the Topeka Edison company.
the largest generator of electricity in
the state by 1000 horse power, was
started at noon today by Mayor w. H.
Davis. assisted by the presence Of
Councilmen Green, Holiday, Nipps,
Horn, Sinner, L. e. Myers, president
of the Topeka. Edison company, T. J.
Anderson, c. E. MaunseIl, the retiring
uperintendent, John Huntington, the

G. Kelly and Albert Patten of the To-

with a number of prominent business

With the aplomb Of fully regis

ascend the steps leading up to the
huge generator towering many feet in
the air. He was instructed into the
mysteries of starting the piece Of ma
ehinery by one of the engineers and
placing his hand on the lever started
the fly wheels on their course, revolv-
ing faster and faster.
Though no bottle of wine was
broken on the PROV, the occasion was
given a touch Of festivity by serving q
light lunch under the direction of
Mrs. HolyOke in the Offices of the plant

visitors.
The generator which has been in
stalled cost 5000, a small sized for
tune. The remaining generators vary
IN size from $50 horse power IN but
none OF them come within touching
distance of the n2w machine which
took almost a month to erect in posi-

most interesting things about the plant
is the method in which the coal for

To the Editor eff the State Journal:
May be permitted to call attention
to the fact that the item in the Journal
of the 23d, under the caption Doctors
Excited, % in so far as it connects Chris
tian Science or Scientists with the un-
fortunate death Of the child In Galdwin
some weeks ago, is entirely incorrect.
The family to whom the child belonged
are not Christian Scientists. They did
not call ia Christian Science practitiOn-
ers to attend the child. There is not a
Christian Scientist in Baldwin. This is
said after a visit to Baldwin by the
writer Of this communication, and an
investigation among the neighbors Of
this family. From this it would seem
that those who have interested them
selves in this matter have taken a very
long jump at a conclusion. and the re-
suit has been. as it always is, wrong.
We are all apt to fail to give proper
consideration to the fact that there are
two sides to every story. We become
so imbued with the correctness Of our
own position that we brush aside the
claim of our brother as unworthy OF
consideration Very often this places
us in the position Of misrepr senting
others. Thirty minutes intelligent in
vestigation would have saved the OFF,
Gals who originated this story from
doing just this. A. 2. COCHRAN.

WANT TO ARBlTRATE.
Operators Proposition Rejected and
joint Conference Adjourned.

Indianapolis, March 3O.-The soint
conference of operators and miners of
the southwestern district adjourned
sine die today without reaching an
agreement.
The delegates meet at noon to receive
the report Of the joint scale commit
tee to which the various propositions
had been submitted. President Mitch
els proposition to reform the organi-
cation of 1903 amended to give a three
cent advance was defeated by the OPP
orators.
President Perry of the operators sug-
gested arbitration as the only solution
of the problem. He said:
I'VE offered before to leave difficulties
to one member of each state supreme
court in the district and the federal
judge in Indian Territory and you re-
fused
I'VE now propose to leave differences
to a committee to be appointed by the
president Of the United States, the find
ings of which committee shall be bind
ing upon both sides. And there are no
limitations or conditions attached. That
commission can go to any length to ar
rive at determination and to arrive
at the facts. There are no conditions"
Delegate Hawaii of Kansas said the
miners had Il taste of arbitration in the
southwest and had enough Of it. Sew
eral miners delegates spoke against the
motion The miners voted solidly
against the motion The operators
voted for it. The motion was declared
lost and the joint conference adjourned
sine die without an agreement.
Mines VIII Close.
WiIkesbarre, Pa, March 30.-Some
of the coal companies in this region
have isued orders to take the mules
out of the mines and put the collieries
in condition for an idle spell.
At the headquarters of the United
Mine Workers the statement was
made that the order to quit work will
be obeyed by the men. It is not be-
lieyed that the operators will attempt
to work any Of their mines.
The belief prevails IN the business
community that the miners and ope-
rators will reach an agreement and
that a suspension will be of short
duration
