SUNDAY SCHOOL oONvENTToN.
State Gathering to Be Held at Chan
ute, April 16, II, IS.

I
The Sunday school forces o. the
/ state are beginnig to show fervor for
1 the success OF the fOrty-second annual
| convention Of the Kansas State Sun
! day School association (inter-denOmi-
/ nationally, which viii be held in Chan
ute, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
/ day, April 16, II, Is.
1t is expected that rates on all rail-
| roads viii be one fare plus so cents
for the round trip, but action has not
as yet been announced by the passen-
| ger association Entertainment may
I be had at the best homes in Chanute
at the Uniform rate Of S1-OO per day,
or so cents for lodging and breakfast
free entertainment having been de-
clined by a full vote Of a previous
state convention
Every Sunday school in Kansas IS
| entitled to one delegate and an ur-
gent request has been sent forth that
all delegates be present
Mrs Laura G. Long, delegate-at-
large from Sherman county, has sent
this appeal TO the Sunday school
forces Of the county:
My Dear Sunday School Friend: As
a delegate-at-large from this county to
the state Sunday school convention.
Chanute, April 16, II, Is, write this
note. am made personally respOnsi-
ble to see TO it that every Sunday
school in this county is duly advised Of
this great event
1T is not easily possible to over
state the benefits to be derived from
such a meeting No school in our
county can afford to be without a rep
resentative. The state officers write
that in their judgment the program
is easily the strongest ever presented
in this state. This is the one annual
event in our state which stands for
cooperation Of all the Protestant
forces. appeal to you to bring about
the appointment Of a delegate from
your school If possible let it be one
that can give help as well as get it.
The expense is really not great.
Consult your railroad agent for the
exact amount. Vote the money out Of
the treasury, or raise it by subscrip-
ton or by special collection. If the
school is unwilling to appoint any one,
go yourself. You will never make q
better investment Of a few dollars, and
a few days. I am naturally sOlicitOus
to have the largest possible delega-
ton from this county. There is a
pleasant rivalry between the counties
VIII you not cooperate with me to
help make a creditable showing? But
far above all motives Of rivalry or per
sOnaI benefit are the interests Of the
kingdom to which every loyal Chris
tian heart responds. We are messen-
gers Of the KingI We are embassa-
dOrs Of the Cross; comrades in holy
war. Let US meet at Chanute for re-
view, for counsel and for season CT
blessed waiting before the Lord
COmeI

zUFALL GUILTY, SAYS JURY
AGREEMENT REACHED AFTER
LONG DELIBERATTON.
Casper Guilty Of JaH Breaking-Zu-
fan and Miller May Get New
Trial

The April session OF the district
court for Sherman county closed sat
urday- The conviction Of Henry Mil
Ter on charge Of grand larceny was
reported last week; also that the jury
In the ZufaI case would probably dis
agree, as they had been out a long
time and could not reach a verdict
After celebrating for two days, how
ever, the jury finally brought in a YER
dict OF guilty, which puts ZufaH up
against a conviction for grand lar
ceny in the same tangle OF evidence
that held Miller.
Attorney Sparks, counsel FOR Zu-
fan, upon the verdict being rendered,
moved the court for a new trial, but
the motion was overruled- Judge
Smith, however, gave Attorney Sparks
thirty days in which to prepare his
argument and bill OF exceptions to the
evidence and the courts instructions
Meanwhile both Miller and Zufau are
kept in custody in the county Jail
awaiting the termination OF the mat
ter. They were given indeterminate
sentence, which means that they shall
serve not less than one year in the
Lansing penitentiary, and not more
than i've years. Application for parole
to the board OF pardOns may be made
after the minimum time has expired
The case OF the state against Frank
Trablik, a link in the Miller-ZufalI
grand larceny case, was continued
over to the July term Of court
Frank Casper, the coIored man who
was arrested on a charge Of burglary
was acquitted Of that charge, but the
county attorney then Immediately had
Casper re-arrested on a warrant
on this clinched the case for the state,
and Casper was found guilty and
sentenced to a term Of one and not
more than two years in the Kansas
penitentiary-
The judgments secured by Attorney
L ". Colby against the Deweys and
in favor Of the Berrys for $4,000 were
set aside by the court upon the pre-
sentatiOn Of stipulatiOns signed By at
tOrneys on both sides. The inference
therefore is that the cases will be tried
in July, when both parties may have
their attorneys before the court, or
it may be that the judgments were
agreed to be set aside until some set
tlement could be arranged outside Of
judgments in court.
Five divorce suits were dOcketed-
Two, that Of W. II. Jones VS.. Eliza E.
jules anu <1AOAALO NuA-AAAS ~ -AAdLNAC

three were granted by the court, re-
Heving one or the other Of the par
ties to the civil contract from the tie
that binds. They are Jennie Myers VS..
Joseph Myers, divorce granted; Frank
B. McLees VS.. Mabel McLees, divorce
granted; Andrew HOItz vs.. Rosa B

cases had to do with title to land and

/ one in town, OF near town, viii fail TO
visit this first art exhibit Of GOodland.
The State Federation believes that
I an education along the lines Of what
/ is best in art has a distinct CONNER
I cial value to the state. In these days
a fine artistic taste counts as a money
| factor in a hundred different lines Of
industry.
/ The artistic taste Of japan prOcures
I for that country an eager demand for
! its products; the same IS true OF
/ France. II we expect to find market
for our manufactured articles in other
I countries we must give to ali our peO-
pie help and guidance along these
lines
The club women Of the state have
been six years collecting pictures for
this travelling art gallery, which has
now been donated to the state There
are only two in the galaxy Of states
that own and operate a travelling art
gallery. One Of these is the great
state Of New York, the other is kan
sas- We have a right to be proud OF
this fact and we are proud Of it. This
appreciation OF art, as one Of the great
educational forces will do our state
good in many ways.
This exhibit, under the auspices Of
the Athena club, and in charge Of Mrs
Kate. a ApplingtOn, who has been
superintendent Of the art department
Of the Kansas Federation Of WOmen's
clubs for several years, and for whom
the art gallery is named, viii open at

At 4 o'clock on Saturday Mrs. Ap-
pIingtOn viii give a talk to club wO-
men and their friends, who are inter
ested in club work
On Friday and Saturday evenings
the exhibit will be open at o'clock
On Friday evening Mrs. ApplingtOn
will give a talk on American art and
artists, and on Saturday evening on

gent will be represented by some Of
their best work; and the masterpieces
Of Rubens, Van Dyck, Rembrandt and
others are in the Dutch and Flemish
connectiin.
Besides the picture talks there will
also be music and tableaux by way Of
entertainment, and refreshments will
be served both afternoon and evenings
On Saturday evening Mrs. Appling-
ton will give her picture talk early, so
that those who desire to go to the play
at the opera house can take in both
entertainments.

CLEVELAND, April 20.-The trottlng
world will be surprised to learn that
c. K. q. Billings has decided TO dis
pose of his entire stable at the Fasig-
Upton auction sale to be held in Cieve-
land the week Of May 10. A telegram
from an authentic source from New
York states positively that such an
arrangement has been definitely closed.
The Billings consignment will include
every light harness horse owned BY
that well known horseman, excepting
the worlds champion trotter, Lou Dill
Ion Q:58ih), and her recent foal by John
A. McKerron (2:041s). -Among the ia
nous equines that will pass under the
hammer at the Glenville sale mart in
May will be the champion trotting

ed trotters ever seen in public. The
pacing stallion Blackjack (2:07M),
whose matinee record of 2:03k makes
him the champion pacing stallion to

at Glenville last season he VIII be In

mare Mazette (2:O4h), also the trotters

trotters from these mares, and all sired
by the champion wagon trotting stall
lion John A. McKeTron, will be eagerly
sought after, as they are not only a
royalty bred lot of youngsters, but have
shown themselves most promising speed
prospects and are eligible to all of the
rich futurities for and 3-year-olds.
Five of them are years old, these
being out of Mazette, Louise Jefferson,
Imogene, Bugle and Fanny Foley
The announcement of Mr.. Billings
intention of disposing of his entire
stable must mean that he intends re-

game. He has never raced his horses
professionally, but ever since his debut

BILLIARD EXPERT SUTTON
EXPELLED FROM FRANCE
speclal Id M IIernld.

Special to The Herald.
PARIS. April 20.-George Sutton, the
American billiard player, who recently
conducted a school for billiards in this
city, and against whom the police is
sued an expulsion order under the law
for the prevention os gambling, left
Paris this morning. According to Sut-
tons partner In the billiard school,
the American player did not apply to
the embassy in order to obtain post
ponement of an order for his expulsion,
although he was accorded forty-eight
hours delay by the police.
A number of expulsion orders were
issued in 1906 against foreigners who
kept. billiard rooms in Paris where
there was extensive betting on games.
The order against George Sutton was
dated April 26 of that year.
Sutton was not notified of this order,
as he had left Paris to fulfill engage
ments i'm Chicago since which time
he has been touring Europe. He only
returned to Paris the end of last week,
when he was due to play with the
Spanish billiard champion at the Grand
cafe. AS he was commencing this game
Saturday afternoon two ins ectors en-
tered and stopped the playing. They
then informed Mr. Sutton of the order
against him and requested him to leave
the country within forty-eight hours.
Mr.. Sutton applied for delay until
Thursday, and this was granted him,
but he left Paris for Amsterdam this
morning.
