TRIUMPH FOR a TOPEKA GIRL.
Miss Parkhurst and Mr.. Springer
Please Large Audience.

A
Unity church was taxed to its ut
most capacity Tuesday evening by a
thoroughly social and music loving
auoience to greet Mr.. Herman SPRING
er, baritone. and Miss Jean Parkhurst,
accoIhpanlsts in song recital.
AS a s1nger1qf wide experience Mr..
Springer fullytrlises up to his reputa-
tion' as was dem onstrated by his pro-
anime, varying as it was from pure
~ aeiodious and descriptive songs to
tne greater dramatic numbers. Espe-
ciaily was he at his best in the two
nne dramatic songs, Edward" by
LoeWe, and Had Horse by Korbay,
and his opening number, the Cavatina
from Rossini's Barber of Seville" Mr..
Spr1nger's enunciation was remark
ABLY good, and in no place was it bet
ter SHOWN than in this Cavatina- The
closing number, Longfellow's beauti-
full poem, "Hiawatha's Wooing,'' with
musical setting by Cole, has been
heard In Topeka a couple of times be-
fore, but never to better advantage
and never did one realize the beauty
OF this poem until-shall I say-read d,
with all its finer shadings, by such a
glorious voice.
MISS Jean Parkhurst. one of To-
peka's own girls, who has been in
Kansas City less than year, has re-
turned TO us a fullhedged professional
aCcompanist. In her playing of the
many difficult accomplishments she
never failed to catch the spirit of the
song and the singer. She has made
remarkable advancement both tech
nfcally and musically, and is, above
all, comprehensive player In. her
rendition of the Cole score Miss Park
hurst had a better chance to display
her ability as a soloist, and came in
for an equal share of the applause,
which she. seemed at first somewhat
reluctant to acknowledge.

ROYCE MAKES A CALL.
He Wants Information About the
Kansas Banks.

An informal call for statement OF
the conditions of the Kansas banks
has been issued by State Bank Com
missioner j. @. Royce, showing their
condition at the close of business on
November %. The reports from the
banks are now coming in. and it is ex-
pected that the report will be made
public next week
Bank Commissioner Royce does not
make this call under authority of the
law, but simply to obtain Information
for the department. Usually the call
is made in conjunction with the call
of the comptroller on the national
banks.
1t is expected that this call will
show that the reserve in the Kansas
banks is in first class condition. anu
1t would not be surprising if the re-
serve was found to be larger than at
any time in the states history. Such
a report, it is believed. will tend to
restore confidence in the financial
situation-if any restoration was
necessary in Kansas

peka. Besides the A regular and spec
fal prizes that were awarded all of the
exhibitors were awarded a pocket
knife valued at 81 wholesale cost. The
prize winner is Myron S. Kelsey of
Ixiro, Menoken township.
AT O'Clock this morning Prof. A.
Nj. Ten, Eyck of the agronomony de-
partment of the State Agricultural col
fege, began his work of grading the
Shawnee county exhibits and it was
after the noon hour when he had fin
ished. In addition to the winning of
the special prizes that were offered by
the business men of the city, the first
ten of the A prize winners will get a
free trip to the farmers institute at
Manhattan, all their expenses, from the
time they leave their respective homes
till they return there, being paid by the
Topeka Commercial club.
The "A prize winners follow in the

The prize won by Miss Hazel Lilies,
the fourteen year old daughter of a
Menoken township farmer-and she was
the only girl contestant-is quite unique
and one of the most valuable awarded
to any of the contestants. Inded this
is no surprise since the young woman's
exhibit is one of the best in the entire
exhibit. Miss Lilies was one of the first
TO apply for seed corn last spring. She
chose Boone County White, the old re-
liable favorite Of the Kansas farmers
and she shows by her exhibit that she

RIOT OF LOOT.
Is Shown by Evidence in the John r.
Walsh Case.

Chicago. Nov. Bob. B. Mckay for
merly private bookkeeper for John R.
Walsh, testified today in the trial of
the former bank president, that what
deposit slips of the Southern Indiana
Railway company were deposited to the
railway company's account on the books
of the Chicago National bank checks
that Mckay himself had written and
that had been signed by other persons
in the bank. The making and signing
of the checks, and the depositing of
them, he said, was at the decision of
Mr.. Walsh. McKay's testimony was
given over a strong objection by attor-
neys for the defense who contended
that it came under a former ruling by
Judge Anderson relative to evidence
furnished by the defendant against him
self
Mckay was examined also as to 80
deposit slips which he said had been
deposited to the account of the Chicago
Chronicle company. During 1905. and a
part of 1904 he asserted $1,424, 900 was
SO deposited. It is contended by the
prosecution that this amount was
wrongfully diverted from the funds of
the bank.

At 1880 this afternoon Prof. Ten
Eyck delivered an address on Corn
Culture" to a big crowd of interested
people. Another who was listened to
with much attention was Mrs. H. w.
Calvin, head of the domestic science
department of the State Agricultural
college. After the speaking the judg-
ing and grading in the Capper corn
contest was begun. Three prizes are
to be awarded in this contest as fol-
lows: First prize. 500; second. $50
watch; third, dictionary. Ears of
corn are on exhibit from thirty-nine
states for this contest.
1t is doubtful if Topeka ever had a
prettier corn exhibit than that dis
played today at the court house. The
glistening, ponderous white ears
blending with the red, yellow and
speckled variety made a picture that
must be seen to be fully appreciated
1t is impossible to paint it creditably
eithe r with brush or with pen.
There was an exhibit made by a
corn product house that was interest
ing. About everything that has yet
been made of corn except bacon and
corn whisky were to be seen.
One of the busiest young men at the
exhibit was F. A. Kiene. jr., an ex-
student at the State Agricultural col
lege, and secretary of the corn exhibit
asso citation He was invaluable to the
visitors who thronged the exhibit
quarters and to the newspaper men,
and never seemed to get tired.

Ruse of Robbers to Deaden Sound of
Dynamite Explosion.

Sedalia, Mo-, Nov. S0.-A telephone
from New Franklin Howard county,
40 miles from Sedalia, says that rob-
bers last night, dynamited the safe of
the New Franklin bank, ransacked
the vaults and escaped with $4,000 in
coin and currency. The robbery was
not discovered until this morning..
Bales of hay and stacks of grain from
a nearby mill had been brought into
the bank by the robbers and piled up
against the vault doors to deaden the
sound of the explosion. There is no
clew to the robbers.
