the euphonious name of Prairie Dog
Cave" No longer a rough, unshayen.
coatless farmer, with a red bandana
handkerchief about his neck, a pair of
coWhide boots and a dingy felt SOM
brero. Oh. no, the Steve Cave who
came to Topeka to buy an automobile
did not look like that.

ed early and late for his bill, and fin
ally had the satisfaction of seeing it
pass. Everybody liked Steve. He was
big, jolly and fresh from the sod, and
his campaign for the determination of
the prairie dog was something new.
Strange to relate, the $4,000 voted by
the legislature to experiment in prai-
RE dog destruction was money well
spent. The scientists at the State Ag-
riRIIIfnrQ1 1iznI hot
Cave meant business, and that there
was serious need of something to
clean out the prairie dog towns. They
went to work and found a poison that
would do the work, and now there is
not bit of trouble with prairie dogs
in western Kansas. Whenever nee
essary, a farmer can go out and kill
off few million with trif1ing expense,
and he has Prairie Dog Cave to thank
for it.
After leaving the service of his
state as member of the legislature,
Steve Cave served one session as ser
geant at arms of the house. Then
Steve Cave did very wise thing He
quit politics and went back to Has
kell county where he commenced to
dabble in real ESTATE, buying a farm
here and there and loading up as
heavily as he dared on the cheap
Kansas land.
And then came the boom. Land
comm Fenced to jump in price. Cave
bought and sold, always making mon
ey hand over fist. Now he is beyond
the place where he has to deal in so
acre tracts or a town lot or two He
goes to Iowa, Missouri, Illinois ana
eastern states. selling western Kansas
land in thousand acre parcels, and
handling big financial deals. Steve
Cave is rich, and is getting richer all
the time. And that's how it happens
that he is in Topeka to buy an auto

LEAVES OYSTER BAY.
The President Begins the Return Trip
to Washington.

oyster Bay. Sept. 25.-President
Roosevelt began his journey to Wash
ington at 10 o'clock this morning,
ending his summer vacation which
commenced June II.
The trip was made by special train
to Long Island City around the lower
end of New York city by tug boat and
from Jersey City to Washington in the
special train on which the president
will make his western trip, which be-
gins at Washington next Sunday.
Mrs Roosevelt, Miss Ethel and
Quentin accompanied the president,
the other children being at school. OF
the party also are Secretary Loeb and
his family and the members of the
executive staff and secret service
guards. Two express cars loaded with
the presidents horses and stable
equipment preceded the special out of
Oyster Bay that they might be made
part of the train at Jersey City.
The leavetaking at Oyster Bay was
a typical scene. The villagers gath
cred at the station and many of them
shook the presidents hand, he heart
lily expressing his pleasure at seeing
his neighbors with whom he has had
opportunity to mingle but little this
summer. The weather for the trip is
ideal and the members of the party
were IN high spirits. The schedule of
the special will make the journey end
at Washington at o'clock tonight.

ut does not seem likely" said Mr..
Anthony while in Topeka Tuesday,
that there will be a primary for the
Republican party next year. The ma
chine politicians probably have
enough strength on the committee to
beat the proposition, and 1 understand
they are all against it, and then Mr.
Hornaday does not seem to be say
ing much about the plan any more.
don't know what has caused him to
stop talking in favor of his project.
I know of only one vote on the Re-
publican committee that will be for
the primary plan, and that's mine.
Mr.. Hornaday said he would be able
to pledge the vote of the Bourbon
county member, but I don't know
whether that is to be counted on
I'VE will have to wait a year for the
primary election to become operative
think there is very little doubt that
the next session of the legislature will
enact a primary law, and that the
next Republican convention will be
the last to be held under the old
Dlan.'

RACE OF $4,000 MILES.
Three Sailing Vessels to Leave New
York for Melbourne.

New York, Sept. 25.-For the first
time in the history of this port three
French sailing vessels will sail on a
Il, 900 mile race from New York. All
hail from the same port, Nantes. Their
captains are lifelong friends, and
members of their crews are related by
marriage or otherwise. The vessels are
nearly alike in size and speed and all
going to one port, Melbourne, Austria
liza. The racers are: The ship Vercinge-
torix, 2,273 tons; the bark Amiral Cour-
bet, 1928 tons and the bark La Bruyere,
2198 tons. All have been chartered by
the Standard Oil company to carry case
oil to the antipodes.
Captain L. Charter commands the
Courbet, Captain J. Huet the Vercinge-
torix, and Captain A. Ancelin, the La
Bruyere.
Great interest in the race is mani
tested on the maritime exchange and
among French residents and crews who
exchange visits and gossip and lay
wagers on the result. The masters will
have a farewell dinner a few nights
before the race begins.
