RUSSELL SPRINGS GETS A BANE
First Time in It's History Will Have
Financial Institution.

Russell Springs, Logan county, is
about to have bank, It will be the
first time that Russell Springs has ever
enjoyed that distinction, but the pro-
motors of the concern think that it will
be a money maker. The bank has been
incorporated under the name of the
Russell Springs State bank, with $780,
900 capital. H. J. Harwi is the cashier.
Russell Springs is situated in the
southern part of Logan county. 1t is
fifteen miles from the Union Pacific
railway on the north, and 25 miles from
the Missouri Pacific on the south. Be
cause it was left stranded between two
railway lines, it has never developed as
much as some of the neigh boring towns
which have had railroad facilities
In addition to the new and solitary
bank at Russell Springs, new banks
have recently been established at sever
al other heretofore bankfess towns in
western Kansas. One of these is Santa
Fe the county seat of Haskell county;
the other is Ulysses. the county seat of
Grant county. These two banks have
both beea instituted and are doing bus
mess. r. Russell. Springs. bank has. not
yet been opened. but the papers prelim-
mary to the formal institution have
been filed with the state bank commits

Army in this city, and I never have
seen better system of reaching the
real deserving poor than the Army
has" By the way, this man has given
literally. and will do even better yet
before the work on the building begins
July 1. 1 am convinced that there is
not man or woman In the city of To-
peka who could not raise at least $1.OO
between now and November of the $I5,-
600 necessary TO erect the Mother Flor
ence" Memorial building God bless
her! Who in Topeka did not know her?
and to know her was to love her, for her
never firing zeal to bring light and sal
walton to all with whom she came in
contact and especially was she interest
ed in the fallen girls of our city. Shall
we not erect a building where that very
class may come and find salvation and
dedicate it to her memory?
Now We propose to raise the above
fund as soon as is possible and begin
building not later than July l. by which
time we hope to have at least half of
the entire amount raised, and the bal
ance by November l. Building is to be
dedicated Thanksgiving day, November
20. You can give your donation in four
1nstallments, May L: July !; September
2; November 1. 1907. That will enable
US to push the building right along and
have the money coming in SyStematical-
~ and everything paid for by time set
to dedicate, leaving nothing to be raised
at that time. All checks or money or
ders should be made payable to Mr.. A
B. Whiting, treasurer for the building
fund. and the same mailed to me at
626 Jefferson street.
Now do not be frightened from giving
because you can not give as much as
some one else, but do your best, and the
building is an assured success. Instruct
your banker to set aside certain
amount of cash and credit 1t to the
building fund, notify me of the fact, and
t attend + md
give the proper credit.
{ You can get pledge cards" to be
signed either of Mr.. Whiting or at the
Salvation Army hall, 119 West Fifth,
also by addressing me by card or indie
pendent phone 1881 Trusting that the
citizens generally Will take up this mat
ter at once and help us to push 1t

COOLEY FULL OF PEPPER.
Sees No Reason for the Gloom Hang
ing Over Louisville.

Il
ing Over Louisville.
| Louisville, April 16.-The presence of
Dick Cooley, captain and field manager,
| has added new life to the ranks of the
Colonels and during the past week, al
though the weather has been the worst
| that has. been encountered during the
entire training season, the practice has
been fast and up to the notch in every
department.
With the addition of Woodruff,
StoVall. Offa Neal, Catcher Jack Sulli-
van and Pitchers Elliott and Sudoff, all
OF whom have come into the fold, the
ColonelS now present a formidab BILE ap-
pearanee and are believed capable of
giving any team in the league run for
their money.
Captain Cooley said yesterday that he
would be greatly surprised if the locals
did not finish as good as one, two, three
and that he saw no reason for the APP
parent. gloom which seems to have set
tied over the Louisville fans and thinks
that after the first week or ten days
they will be willing enough to climb in
the boosters band wagon. Vice Presi-
dent Chivington,s while somewhat adj
verse to making any representations is
pretty much tickled at the turn affairs
have taken and is decidedly optimistic
regarding the prospects of the Colonies.
with the addition of one or two vet
eran pitchers and another catcher, I
know of no team which would look any
stronger than the ColonelS,'' said he.
They, certainly are the heaviest hitting
aggregation now in the league on paper

TIP o'NEIL EXPLAINS.
Head of the Western League Tells
Why He Lost Topeka.


Why He Lost Topeka.
Omaha, April 16.-Norris O'Neill, pres
ident of the Western league, declares B
Johnson, president of the American
league, double-crossed him in the Tope-
ka matter. He says that the Western
league remains six-club league, and
Topeka stays with the minor organiza-
ton as the result of deception. His
statement of the case follows: ~
Il want the baseball public to under
stand that Ban Johnson double-crosse
us. Western league, in all fairness, was
entitled to Topeka, but the cards were
stacked and we had no show. Early
last week Johnson protested to be
favorable to our case. Later he said
he could not expect to win because
Garry Hermann was against us. Pull
liam was unfavorable all the time, but
he let us know frank1yS where he stood.
after I got to Cincinnati last week
I discovered that Johnson had written
to Herrmanna and took the stand that the
commission could go no further. Herr
mann produced Johnson's letter in proof
that the latter was against us, despite
previous professions to the contrary.
Comiskey tried to help us in the fight
and was assured by Johnson that We
should get Topeka. 1t was as much of
a throwdoWn for Comiskey as for us"
