NO MORE COD. LIQUOR.
WeIls-Fargo Company Stops Ship
ments After September T.

No more c. o. D. intoxicating
liquors of any kind shall be received
by the Wells-Fargp company in this
state after September l. is the order
sent out from New York August by
the president of the company This
order is entirely voluntary on the part
of the Wells-Fargo company, having
been issued after they had won the
suit in the supreme; court whereby
they were permitted to handle the c.
o. d. business on the ground that it
was interstate commerce and that the
state could have no jurisdiction over it.
The letter in regard to the matter
received in the local office states as the
reason for the action taken by the
company that 1.-The increasing pub
lie sentiment in opposition to handling
intoxicating liquor. c. o. D. and the
recent laws restraining the delivery of
having the agent conform with the
law on account of the frequent changes
in the law and the local options has
resulted in much provocation, vexa-
ton and litigation at both ends of the
line
Instructions are that any such c. o.
D. consignments now on hand are to
be held until September Is, when if not
called for. are to be returned to
senders.
In speaking of the effect of this or
der on Topeka shipments, the local
agent said that the order would make
very little difference now. as the office
here was receiving very few liquor
of any kind and that since
the agitation against the liquor bust
ness had been stirred up by Attorney
General Jackson. the business of the
express company has fallen off two
thirds at least. as

HE FAILED TO DIVE.
Falxer Who Collected Money in Adj
vance Nearly Mobbed at SaIina.

Salina, Kan, Aug. 21.-The Journal
says:
James Story, the high diver, who
says he has travelled with the Parker
Amusement company. and is the
youngest high diver in the world, and
who was scheduled to make an eighty
foot dive into the Smoky Hill river
from an extension erected on the Iron
avenue bridge last night, made a dive
all right but it was a dive into tn
hands of the police and into the city
Jail.
At the appointed hour for the dive
story appeared in the crowd with one
or two of his assistants and began
taking collection. to pay him for his
work. he said. A few dimes and
nickels were dropped into the hats
that were passed and the crowd that
totaled 800 or 400 people waited for
the big event After he had counted
the money, Story appeared before the
crowd and said:
I'm the youngest diver in the
world. I've been with the great Par
ker Amusement company, but won't
dive for no $S.34. I've got to have at
least s25. If you'll al come back to-
morrow night I'll take up another col
lection and if l get enough then I'll
make the dive
Yes. Wen be back tomorrow night,

crowd and they made for the man.

hands on him. but Officer Smith hap
pened to be in the crowd and he
showed through the mob and placed
the man under arrest.
The crowd hOOted and Kissed and
followed the officer and his diver all
the way up to the police station Santa
Fe avenue for a few minutes was
seething mass of humanity from Iron
avenue to the city building. Story was
lodged in the city Jail and the crowd
gradually dispersed. Story plead guilty
to being drunk and was fined SO and
costs.

A NOISE LIKE HORSE THIEVES.
Ouartette of Boys Who ''Took a Drive
Apprehended at Tecumseh.

Four little "tads'' between the ages
of to II, made a noise like a gang
of horsethieves just before noon to-
day. Stuart Henry, of North Topeka,
tied his horse and buggy in front of
the city building, and the quartette
took it. They drove rapidly east on
Eighth avenue, and when they reached
Tecumseh, Constable Reed made
noise like a vigilance committee, and
attempted to apprehend the entire gang.
The boys flew out of the buggy like
a flock of quails, and took to the
weeds and it took the constable over
an hour to round them up.
1t was about 1 o'clock when the boys
were hauled to the police station and
placed on deposit. The personnel of the
ouartette was easily guessed by the Of
ficers as soon as the animal was miss
ed, as all the boys, with the exception
of Alba. have been up to the same
tricks before. They are Marshall
Flansburg, Roy Bagan and Elmer Ba-
gan, brothers, and Julian Alba. Alba
is the son of Augustin Alba, who runs
a Mexican chile house, and this is his
first attempt, but the other boys pulled
off the same kind of a trick last night
when they unhitched DR.. McCarter's
horse and drove it for several hours
before the officers stopped them. At
that time they flew out of the buggy
and escaped. Marshall Flansburg act
ed as spokesman when they were cap
tured and said that they were just TAX
in a nice little ride.

JUDGE M'CABE AT HOME.
Returns With Mashed Fingers From
European Tour.

Judge A. ]. McCabe who, with Mr..
and Mrs. Otis Benton and son, just re-
turned from a European tour yester-
day, will not soon forget his journey
through sunny Italy. He has three
fingers snugly bandaged which will
serve as reminders for some time to
come. At Bologna, the train guard
saw fit to suddenly close door ana III
SO doing, caught three fingers OF
Judge MEGA be's hand which were
resting on the sill and crushed them
very badly. 1t was at first thought
that they would have to De amputateo
and at every station along the route
there was physician sent by the ran
road company to attend to the hurt.
It was finally found that the fingers
could be saved but great care had to
be exercised in taking care of the
bruised members. Judge McCabe says
that he never had so much attention
in his life as was shown him by the
agents and physicians of the company.
The journey just completed was the
result of an agreement on the part or
Messrs. McCabe and Benton while
they were students at Washburn COL
lege. They then agreed that some
time, as soon as possible, they would
take a trip to Europe together and the
compact has at last been carried out.
They started from Topeka on June 1st
and sailed from Boston on the White
Star steamer Arabic June 9Th. Their
itinerary included Ireland, Scotland,
England, the Netherlands Germany,
France. and Italy. They visited the
cities of Rotterdam and Antwerp. the
field of Waterloo then went to Co
logne and 8ohn. and on down the
Rh1ne to Mayence past Bingen to
Heidelberg and Baden Baden. At
Strassburg the party met Congress
man Phil Campbell. On the Streets
OF Florence they met A. A. Robinson
Of this city; they also met Mrs.
Charles Curtis on the streets of Paris.
At the top of Eifel Tower they came
across the Armin Fasslers
There were many interesting ex-
periences during the trip. among
which was a trip to the house of lords
in London and an opportunity to hear
a speech there. Paris was the favorite
city of Europe and was declared the
center of the universe. The trip was
most enjoyable in every way with the
exception of the unfortunate accident
on the Italian railroad train.

SEATON WAKES UP.
Will Rebuild Front of His Kansas
Avenue Building. ~


Captain John Seaton of Atchison is in
the city today and has made arrange
ments for the rebuilding of the front of
his building at 72S Kansas avenue which
has been occupied by Jesse Elliott for
years as a sporting goods store The
building is one of the oldest business
structures in the city and the front is
of an Anticipated type peculiar to the
time of its construction. The business
was recently purchased by Robert Full
lerton.
Il have been trying for several years
to get Topeka architect to prepare
plans for a new front to the building"
said Mr.. Seaton this morning. but they
have been so busy that they have re-
fused to pay any attention to me. I
have been so ashamed IF the appearance
of the building for the past year or so
that 1 have refused to walk on that side
of the street and came to Topeka only
when business compelled me to.
Work will be commenced on the front
at once and 1 have instructed the archi-
tect to draw plans which will be in
keeping with the generally improved ap-
pearauce of the buildings on Kansas
avenue. Red brick will be used in re-
building the second story and a full
plate glass front will take the place of
the one now in position and / think that
the change will be one appreciated by
the public spirited citizens of Topeka"

HE'S OUT Of IT.
Judge StiIlwelI- Refuses to Re-
consider Resignation.
Writes a Pathetic Letter to
Governor HOch.
NAME A SUCCESSOR.
Likely That ]. w. Finley Will
Be Named Today.
Only Two Men Left in the
Contest.

In a letter received by Governor
Hoch at noon today, Judge Leander
Stillwell of Erie, refused to withdraw
his resignation as judge of the Seventh
judicial district.
Governor Hoch will appoint Judge
this afternoon to succeed Judge Still
well, and the indications are that it
will be ]. w. Finley of Chanute. The
race seems to have narrowed down to
Finley or z. d. Mfkesell Of Fredonia.
Judge Stillwell, in a letter to the
governor, says:
"I am not insensible by any means
to the considerations you SO kindly and
forcibly suggest and l would like to
oblige you and my other friends in the
manner YOU indicate, but l gave this
subject some months of most careful
thought, and 1 made up my mind that,
in view of the state of my wife's
health, 1t was my duty to resign the
office. The same conditions now OBJ
tain that existed when l forwarded my
resignation and are liable to continue
indefinitely. so far as I can now see-
And 1 think 1 know you we'll enough,
governor, to warrant me in saying that
If you were situated just as I am, you
would do exactly what have DONE and
am doing. 1 cannot tolerate the thought
of longer continuing to receive the sal
airy apPeTtaining to the office while L
am not doing the work. And it seems to
me. in view of my long judicial service,
and which has been faithful to the best
my home and my life, and which has
caused me to lay down my official posi-
ton that my wishes in the matter
should prevail"

There was No Wedding.

Miss Vesta Victoria, the English music
hall artist, whose song of a Tilted bride,
Waiting at the Church." is as popular
in America as it was in England said
at dinner in New York:
. "A clergyman, hearing the song at
the Tivoli in London wrote me a letter
of congratulation from Stoke Pogis. He
said he adored Waiting at the Church.
and he told me of a jifting that had ac-
tually happened in his parish.
He said that he had an appointment
to marry couple at on a certain af-
ternoon. He appeared duly. and the
bride appeared, but not the bridegroom.
The clergyman and the lady, silent and
embarrassed, waited in the quiet church
from till 6. Then they sadly de-
parted.
"a week later the same couple wrote
to the clergyman again, appointing an
other afternoon at 4 for the ceremony.
And again the clergyman and the bride
were on hand duly, and again the groom
failed to turn up.
'As the two waited, time passed
slowly in the still and empty church. It
drew darker and darker. Five O'Clock
sounded, then 6.
And then the bride broke the silence
with a fierce ejaculation.
'Drat him" she cried. 'Tain't his
trousers this time, cause bought him
a pair Exchange.

DELAY OF YEARS.
That Is the Outlook in the Kaw I'M
provement Matter.

Kansas City. Aug. 21.-Unless the
Kaw valley drainage board, the rail-
roads and the stock yards company can
reach an agreement, it will be several
years probably before the board can
start improvements on the Kaw river.
Both the stock yards and railroads
have declared their intention of appeal
ing from the findings of Charles Blood
Smith, the special master, permitting an
issue of 100000 in bonds to dredge the
channel.
A new drainage board is to be elect
ed next spring, however, and the new
board may be more favorable to the
railroads. The costs in the litigation al
ready amount to $4,000, half of which
must be paid by the drainage board.
The appeals will increase these costs.
The railroad have offered to agree to
600 foot water way. This would ne
cessitate little change in the bridges.
The attorneys for the railroads and
stock yards company are busy prepar-
ing exceptions to the findings. These
are to be presented to Judge John c.
Pollock with the report Monday.
Should the litigation be dropped and
a 500 foot water way agreed upon,

WANTED TO GO ON.
Attorneys for Mrs. Eddy Objected to
Dismissal of Suit.

Concord, n. H, Aug 21.-This was
the second day of the second week OF
the masters hearing upon the Compel
ency of Mrs. Eddy. Upon the masters
taking their seats William E. Chandler
senior counsel for the next friends adj
dressed the court saying:
NAV it please the court, it will
doubtless be relief to the masters to
be informed that the counsel for the
friends have this day filed with the
clerksof the court a motion for the dis
rrissals of the pending suit and that
they hereby withdraw their appearance
before the masters without asking from
them any findings upon the question
submitted to them by Judge Chamber
lain.1 There are many reasons for TINS
action. The principal one arises from
a consideration of the unprofitableness
OF any immediate result of a decision
in our favor upon the exact issue as
now framed, compared with the
burdens and disadvantages to be
endured by US both before and
after such a decision. The suit
has been almost wholly altruistic
in it's nature and not single
dollar of the large fortune whose ex-
istence is disclosed or which might be
enlarged in consequence of this suit
can become at this time the property
of the next friends. There are also
reasons, sentimental in their charac-
ter overcoming the strong desire of
the next friends to prove thefacts and
vindicate the reasons upon which the
is now hereby dismissed
Mr.. Chandler then formally pre-
scented a motion for the dismissal of
the suit

TO HOLD A pow WOW.
Attorney General jackson Calls Coun-
ty Attorneys to Topeka.

Arrangements have been made by
Attorney General F. S. Jackson for a
big pow-wow of the county attorneys OF
the state to, be held in Topeka In few
days at the state house, for the purpose
of talking over VARIOUS matters, but
more especially. for the. purpose of dis
cussing the antitrust and corporation
litigation.
It is expected, however, that there will
be some remarks made concerning the
enforcement of the prChibitory laws. -
1t is said that at this meeting a gem
eral plan of campaign against various
kinds of corporations will be. discussed.
The county attorneys will be told how
they can assist in the enforcement of
laws, and it may be. that the result of
the meeting will be the filing of a large
grist of lawsuits in each county of the
state against concerns which are trans
acting business Illegally.
The plans for the meeting have been
kept very secret. The invitations to the
county attorneys Of the state were sent
out some weeks ago, but nothing was
given out concerning them by the attor-
ney general.

NOBODY'S AFRAID.
Wall Street Prices Advanced After the
Presidents Speech.

New York. Aug. 21-Although the speech
Of the president and the address of Sec
rotary Taft were not of the sort that Wall
street hoped for, there was a strong close
in the stock market yesterday with nu-
merous net gains of to points, and
more in some cases. The market display
ed considerable weakness early in the
dav but the course of prices in the last
hour gave no indication that traders were
displeased with the outspoken position of
the chief executive and his most cOnSpic
uous associate in the executive depart
ment of the government The rally in the
final dealings was due largely to cover
ing by shorts. 1t was not caused by ac
tive buying for rich men who were cheer
ed by the declarations of the policy of
the government. President Roosevelt, in
stead of saying few words to relieve the
anxieties of Wall street. intimated that
the recent slump in stocks might be due
to manipulation, by the very men who are
appealing most loudly for a 1etrup in gov
eminent prosecution of corporations that
are guilty of violations of the law The
president apparently, believes that the
recent slump was brought about deliber-
ately as an object lesson of the evil re-
suits of prosecuting law-breaking corpor-
ationS.
