sCu1nrNG MATCHES IN TOPEKA.
Councilman Jordan Proposes Them
For Soldier Creek.

Here is q terrible blow to the effete
east Sculling matches which have
from time immemoriaI been consider
ed exclusively the property Of the
universities and the athletic clubs Of
the eastern cities are going to take
place on the classic Soldier creek
which skirts the northern boundary
of North Topeka
Councilman c. z. Jordan of the First
ward is wearted with the ordinary eff
forts which are made to attract crowds
to the North side pleasure spot. Car
field park, an dhe plans TO give scull-
ing matches in the regulation racing
cheus on the Soldier. Say, what's the
matter with having boat races ?" said
he to a reporter this morning.
with visions of foamy schooner
the reporter was inclined to spar for
time and find out exactly what was
meant. He didn't want to say some
Of the same" until he was sure that an
offer was being tentatively offered. So
he said Where? What do you mean ~
why regular boat races on the
Soldier" responded the First ward
councilman. entirely oblivious Of what
was choking the mind of the other
man. Don't you think they would
draw a crowd ?"
DO you mean these sculling races
with racing shells and six and four
cared crews r. was the query
Sure thing" said Mr.. Jordan. "At
least something like that. I don't
know that I would have a SIX cared
crew, but we ought to be able to use
the racing shells with a smaller num-
Der. I am going to look 1t up and ar
range for this. I believe that It would
take well and that It would draw the
crowds over to Garfield park. I be-
lieve in getting up something new aDA
I think this is an idea that will take. ."
With this the First ward council
man started to talk about larboard
and aft and something about bracing
the nainsail His listener looked at
him few minutes and then being a
landsman fed in terror.
Racing on the Soldier will probably
have to be limited to canoe or the
regular boat races because the girth of
the stream is not of the naughty size
Of the eastern streams and the big
oars of the racing shells would get
tangled up with the banks on either
side. If the park commissioners want
to do away with this difficulty by ask
ing for plans and specifications for in
creasing the WIDTH of the stream it
could be done. fof everything is pos
sible in Kansas
With what airy nonchalance the To-
pekan of the future can view the var
sity races of the east. The fastener
will say with preSuming assumption, 81
suppose you have nothing like this out
west ?" And then watch the native son
swell up and say, ooh, yes. indeed. We
have number of regattas each year
on the Soldier and some very fine races
in the four oar and six oar classes.
Why when the" and then his voice
will trail away in recounting some OF
the memorable victories.

This Is the question which the

we can't use any of our machinery and
that we viii have to throw it all away

how much truth there is in that It

more cheaply by gas engines than by

It's plant on this theory. 1t is claimed
that the new plants are constructed all
on this theory where steam would be

Why the city can't adapt itself to
this especially when It is said to be so
much cheaper is a question which will

I'VE found the machinery in perfect
condition and working finely" said c.
E. Jewell, member of the board. THE
wells have been all cleaned out and we

points now because the river is high.
It has been high all Of the summer"
