STRANGE IDEA OF A JOKE.
Topeka Men Arrested in Atchison
Have Trouble.

Seven Topeka men who seem to
have had a desire to be known as prac-
teal jokers were arrested in Atchison
this week for one of their pranks
which they have not yet managed to
get fixed up. They are all employees
of the Santa Fe building department
and have been engaged in tearing
down an old stone building in that
city.
A stranger sauntered by and insisted
on going into the building, refusing to
heed the admonitions of the workmen
that the building was unsafe. The
building failed to fall on him as they
undoubtedly hoped that it would and
to make their word good that he was
in danger they began to playfully drop
rocks about him from the floor above.
One of them struck the stranger on the
head and after the doctors had worked
with him for a few hours he began to
show signs of life and has continued
to do so ever since, inasmuch as he
Immediately had the entire force ar
rested.

The city of Topeka will not institute

National.
I'VE have talked this matter over sew

we have come to the decision that the

itself with its assets should pay out
IS cents on the dollar and then there IS
all of that other Devlin estate which
should certainly return % cents on the

brought, is to keep the statute Of linl-

States senator to succeed Burton
II have made no formal announce

shall. A good many people have
talked TO me about it but I am satisfied
80 leave things alone for the present.
7 am in sympathy with this wichita
movement but I did not care to be
chairman Of the convention as was
suggested. 1t might have seemed to
some that I was trying to use the con-
Ventiou in some way"
What's your idea about the method
OF choosing the senator 2" was asked
II am in favor of any method that
win give the people the right to name
the senator. A primary election law is
what Is needed but of course that is
out Of the question for the present.
I do not see that the state convention
would be any better place to name the
candidate than would the legislature.
So my mind is not made up as to what
way would be best for selecting the
next senator"

Now that tax paying time at the
county treasurer's Office is about over
for the January payment the force is
at work rechecking the books and
comparing the receipts with the tax
rolls. This is in itself considerable
job as there are something like $4,000
receipts which have been issued from
the Office and it viii be necessary to
make a comparison of these with the
names of the taxpayers on the books
Each receipt will average about ten
items which will make 10000 items
to be compared before the work Incl

are a. few delinquents who are drop

BROWN GOES TOPRISON.
Pleads Guilty to a charge Of Attempt
ing to Commit BlansIaughter.

David Brown. who was charged with
attempt to commit murder, who jump
ed his bond and was finally arrested in
British Columbia and brought back by
Sheriff Lucas surprised the entire force
at the court house this morning by en-
tering a plea of guilty to a lighter
charge.
The crime for which Brown will be
punished was committed two years so,
the night of the Goth of April. Three
coiored women were crossing the Melan
bridge on Kansas avenue when they
claim to have been insulted by two
men. They immedia tely hunted W
trio of their men friends, consisting OF
David Brown, the man who pleaded
guilty this morning, Eom Phillips and
Joe johnson, and told them Of the oc-
-currence- The men returned to the
bridge and there met W. S. Sanford and
Joseph Burt, two stockmen who were
shipping cattle through the city and
who were looking at the bridge While
their train was being made up in the
yards Of the Union Pacific railroad. A
fight was commenced at once and the
stockmen SO severely beaten ana stab
bed that their lives were despaired
of by the physicians at the hospital to
which they were taken.
At the trial Of the case Phillips plead
ed guilty and received a long jail SEN
tence. Joe Johnson was sentenced to the
penitentiary for ten years and was par
.doned few weeks ago under rather
peculiar circumstances. The first nOtifi-
cation that the officers of this county
had that Johnson was to be pardoned
was when they saw the announcement
of the granting of the pardon in the
city papers. Considerable. Indignation
was aroused a the time of the granting
of the pardon, especially was this true
in the case of the officers who had
worked so hard to secure 3, conviction.
After the sentencing of his two Pals
I in crime Brown who was out under
$1,000 bond signed by David Chiles, a
respectable cOlored farmer of this coun-
ty, disappeared and was not heard Of
again until apprehended by the police
| department of King Edward, in British
Columbia Extradition papers were
| prepared and Sheriff Lucas started on
| his long journey after the fugitive.
The trip after Brown cost the county
about $500 which was paid by David
| ChileS, the bOndsman of Brown, in lieu
of the full amount of the bond of $1,000
After his return to Topeka n the
| company of the officers Brown declared
i that ne would fight the case which
caused County Attorney Hungate con-
/ siderable unnecessary work.
! The two victims of the assault, Joseph
Burt of Billings, Oklahoma, and W. S
! Sanford who now lives near HcIin1tor
! in this state. were on hand this morn
! ing as witnesses and it is probably due
to their presence that Brown decided
4 to plead guilty to an attempt to COM

determinate sentence law means thai
he will be confined IN the penitentiarS
| for from one to five years at Ire djscre-
/ ton of the prison board.

TeTOrizes Passengers at Depot.

Usage City Jan. 16.-Leo Goddarz,
who delivers the mail at the depots was
fined $50 and costs by Justice Jones
yesterday on a charge of disturbing the
peace. GOddarz who had been drunk
took possession of the Missouri Pacific
depot Saturday night. He fiourished
revolver and fired several shots, his
anger being directed at Martin Morris,
the station agent He refused to leave
the room but cursed Morris and held
sway for an hour while the passengers
who were waiting for the west bound
train were compelled to remain out in
the storm.
When Goddard was arraigned he
pleaded guilty and said that he was
sorry that he had insulted any one.
Special Oaicer Solicit Of the Missouri
PACING is also investigating the case.
1t appears that since the joints were
closed it has been the custom to send
Cor beer and after it arrives drink the
liquor in the waiting rooms. There
had been such a. party at the Missouri
Pacific station preceding the trouble.
