Her heart was bitter toward every one

was dark rebellion in her soul. 1t cul-

Monty Brewster at any cost.
With difficulty she made her way to

WHITE HELD Ut.
American Ambassador stopped by
Italian Customs Omcer

New York. Aug. IA cable dis
patch to the Herald from Venice says:
Henry White. American ambassa-
dor to Italy, had none too pleasant an
experience yesterday with Italian GUS
toms officials. Mr. White had been
stopping at Cortina, just across the
Austrian border, and left early yester-
day by carriage for Pleve de Galore
in Italy.
The Italian custom house on the
road is established at Chiapuzzi, four
miles from Cortina. On arriving there
the Italian customs officers ordered
the amba ssad dor to take all his baggage
from the carriage and open it for in
spection. Mr.. White informed the Of
acials who he was and said his posi-
ton exempted him from such formal
itv but the officers were obdurate. A
somewhat heated discussion ensued.
Mr.. White finally decided TO tele-
graph to the minister Of foreign af-
fairs at Rome. AS bad luck would
have il. the minister was absent. It
appears that the under secretary of
state. Signor Fompile, finally heard of
the affair He promptly wired an or
der to the head of the custom house
at San Vite to let the am bassador pass
unmolested. The message was carried
to Chiapuzzi by messenger and the in
cident terminated
In the meantime just eight hours
had elapsed, so the ambassador had
to abandon his excursion for the day.

fairies, who were dressed in white. and
the bad fairies, dressed in black. try to
take possession of the orphans. Three
little spirits, dressed in red. champion
the orphans. The Auditorium was too
large for the child voices to fill. but the
singing was far above the usual iuve-
nile entertainment, and the movements
of the little actors showed natural grace
and perfect training. The few who at
tended were well entertained, and aside
from the poor attendance the show was
decided success.
Topeka is noted for the readiness with
which it does not turn out when q. nice
entertainment is given in the interest Of
home charities, on which money. care
and time have been spent by the ladies
who try to keep such institutions alive

BRlSTOW Hasa PLAN.
Would Have Primary Law But DIFF
ferent One.

Joseph L. Bristow of Salina, one of
the candidates for United states sena-
tor, has a plan of his own for a pri-
mary election law in this state. Mr.
Bristow was in the city for a brief time
this morning and was visitor at Re-
publican headquarters at the Copeland
hotel during his visit.
4 number of the prominent Repub-
licans were at the hotel this morning
including 5. c. drummer, chairman of
the state committee, John Q. Royce,
state bank commissioner. and Carr
Taylor. attorney for the railroad com
mission. They had a little informal
talk with Mr.. Bristow in which the
primary law question was talked over
and 1t seemed to be the general i'm
preston that about everybody in the
state IS in favor of primary law
which Will provide for nominations di-
reetly- by a vote of. the people and that
legislation to this end will be enacted
by the next legislature. provided some
plan for these elections can be agreed
upon.
Mr.. Bristow suggested as his plan
for such a law that at the primaries
each voter should name a first and
second choice for the candidates for
the nominations and that the nomina-
ton should go to the candidate who
secured the most first and second
choices. This is something on the or
der Of the primary election law of
Pennsylvania
Mr.. Royce thinks that this plan is a
good one but it does not appeal to him
as strongly as does the primary law
which is in operation in South Caro-
lima. In that state there is a prelimf-
nary primary nomination election at
which all candidates for nominations
are voted on. Then there is a second
ary election q, week or ten days later
when the two candidates receiving the
greatest number of votes are voted on
again and the enc receiving the ma
jority gets the nomination.
There is no doubt in my mind.
said Mr.. Royce, that the next legisla-
ture Will pass a primary law which viii
provide for the domination of can
didates for Office by a direct vote, but
there max. be some little difficulty in
reaching an agreement as to just what
sort of a law will be passed [ think
that all the voters Of the state or the
great majority of them are in favor
of such a primary law and that one
will be surely passed.

Mr.. Coleman Decided to Heed
Request Of Civic League.

Mr.. Marshalrs appointment becomes
effective Immediately. He has been
one of the leaders of those in the
county who have been making war on
the joints there and it is expected that
he win see to it that the prohibitory
law is enforced 10 the letter.
Marshall's appointment comes as
result of request from members OF
the civic league in Cowley county FOR
the apo u enent of a special attorney
general to take hold of the joint situa-
ton on the ground that w d. Kream-
err. the county attorney, has been lax
in his duty in enforcing the prohibitory
law and that joints. particularly IN Ar
kansas city, have been and are being
operated in fragrant violation of the
law. This fight for the appointment
of a special attorney general for COW
ley county has been going on for some
time and Mr.. Coleman has been IN
Vestigating the conditions which pre-
vail there and has been looking for a
prosecution of the law violatOrs. He
believes he has found him in Mr.. Mar
shall.
H. S. Hines and Mr.. Lloyd. editor Of
the Searchlight, saw the attorney gem
eral on this matter during the first Of
the week and Mr.. Hines wrote a letter
to Mr.. Kreamer asking him to come
to Topeka and meet him before the
attorney general 10 answer some
specific charges which Mr. Hines made
in his letter that Kreamer was paying
no attention to the enforcement of the
prOhibitory law.
Mr.. Kreamer refused to come to To-
peka. Instead he wrote a letter to
Mr. Coleman in which he stated that
the charge of his negligence in prose-
cutting liquor dealers was false and
that he was doing all in his power to
close the joints in Cowley county and
that he had not been protecting
jointists.
