CANT FIND THEM.
Police on Watch for Mr. and Mrs. B.
D. Gardner on. .ssgindlins Charge.

If the police could place under ar
rest Mr.. and Mrs. B. D. Gardner smiles
would be chasing UP and down the
races or Mayor W. H. Davis and Chief
OF Police Donovan.
SWindlers they are known to be but
their operations are confined to cities
and hamlets miles from Topeka and
wnen they return to this city TO live off
or their illgotten returns they are
careful to keep within the limits Of
the law.
Each days mail brings to light new
complaints of the operation of the
man and woman who swindle connd-
ing people out of small sums. Most of
these complaints are addressed to
Mayor Davis himself. The trail that
the two have made can be traced all
over the prosperous western and cen
trail portion of the state. Yesterday
pathetic letter came from a washer
woman at Newton to the office Of the
mayor. Mr.. and Mrs. b. d. Gardner
represented themselves as general
agents for the Moral Manufacturing
company of Topeka and agreed to ap-
point the Newton woman as one of
their agents upon the payment of
$3.50 for a sample line which she was
to use in securing orders Trustingly
the woman paid over the money but
nothing further has ever been heard
and the samples never arrived
We have looked these parties up
said the mayor. land the address they
give at o Kansas avenue Is ncIuous-
There is no business conducted at that
numb Der following a description of the
Moral Manufacturing company. How
ever the police are acquainted with
the couple and know where they stay
when they come here. The trouble is,
nothing IS done here which would
make 1t possible to arrest them in To-
peka. If complaint was made in an
other city where a swindle had been
perpetrated and a warrant sworn out
there we could possibly arrest them
upon request from the police of the
other city. There is nothing more
despicable than the low petty thieving
which this couple practice. They
should be bound to post and horse
whipped. Nothing would give me
greater pleasure than to have them
placed under arrest if we could do SO
legallv and sentence them heavily,

SO far this season, the school of mines
ought to win the game, but it is some
what doubtful as to whether they will
or not. Colorado university, while
she has not made a great record for
herself this season, always plays a
much better game against the boys
from the mining school and if they
have a possible show of winning the
game they are sure to do it.
A good deal of local interest is at
tached to the game at St Mary's this
afternoon between the Catholics and
the Normal team. The Normal team
has been hard at work for the game
mount and St. Mary's defeated the
Wichita team they are prepared to
play great game and in this manner
atone for the Paramount defeat. Quig-
ley, it seems, has to stand good for all
the sins of Paramount. St. Mary's
after the hard game last Saturday
with Washburn Will probably be a lit
tie below their normal condition.
A GOOD reward is waiting for the
man who can decide the state cham
pjOnship of Kansas from the scores
made during the game this fall Kan
sas university being the largest school
in the state is naturally looked for
this place. However, this year she
has been unable to score on Wash
burn and only yesterday suffered de-
feat from the hands of the Aggies.
Wash burn probably has as clear
record as any team in the state. Out
of eleven games which Washburn has
played they have won ten, and have
accumulated during the season a total
score of 147 to the l 1 points of the op-
pOnents- The game which was lost to
Paramount was on shaky de-
ciSiOn based mostly upon the state
ment Of 4 FairmOunt player and in
game played with five of Washburn's
best men out of the game. Manhattan,
who is the only Kansas school to de-
feat K. L., has lost to Washburn and
Paramount Paramount is trying the
hardest to make the public adhere to
their claim for the coveted position at
the helm of the football teams but her
efforts in this line are somewhat
jocular in the view OF the to defeat
which they suffered from St. Mary's
which was beaten in turn by Wash
burn and Kansas by big scores. Fair
mount has several victories to her
credit but a large proportion of them
are from little colleges whose football
teams are barely above the high
school class. No team can claim the
championship but Kansas and Wash
burn have the clearest right to it.

expected to- go from Topeka to the

reaches one hundred.
A game which will attract consider
