There was little time to wait before
the wide girthed hull of the Connecti-

to coincide with the color of the SUI

half thousand sailors in their nat
test suits of blue, with marine guard
full uniformed and stiff at attention
on the quarter deck with band playing
the national anthem, with Admiral
Evans on the after bridge high abovs

President Lifts His Hat.
The president lifted his hat and the
spontaneous cheer he voiced was
quickly taken up by others in his par

flowers bridge the president had an
uninterrupted view of the entire
pageant.
Abreast the presidential yacht the
Connecticut began her series of salutes.
The men at the rails at the word of
their commander raised right hands to
caps and held them there until the
Mayfower was cleared. On the forward
bridge Captain Hugo Osterhaus and the
fleet navigating officer came to atten-
ton with flourish of swords. Admiral
Evans and the members of his staff sa-
luted similarly in turn from the after
bridge, while the marine guard with
polished rifles, stood motionless at

The Superwonan.

OF all the theories propounded by
Friedrich Nietzsche, the iconoclasttc
German philosopher, none have WELD
ed a stronger influence than those
dealing with the woman question. His
views on this question are strangely
contradictory, and seem to have been
different at times in his life. Schopen-
hauer's extreme anti-feminfst views,
Wagner's idolatrous worship of wo-
man, both left deep impress on his
mind. He evidently regarded woman
as the eternal paradoX-at once the
parasite" that preys upon man, and
the inspirer who lifts him to the
heights.
Did Nietzsche ever dream, Of a
Superwoman to match his ideal
Superman? The answer to that ques-
ton is found in his definition Of mar
riage. He said: "Marriage,-thus 1
call the will of two beings to create
another who shall be more than they
who created it. Marriage I call rever-
ence unto each other, as unto those
who will such a will" Woman is as
necessary to the contamination of this
perfect marriage as man; and in wo-
man, the indispensable mate, the
mother of the TRANSPORTED man of the
future, Nietzche undoubtedly foresaw
and welcomed the Superwoman.-

BALKS AT LABOR LAW.
Mayor Green Won't Try to Enforce
Other Sunday Blue Ordinance.

Mayor William Green said this morn
ing that he was delighted-and he used
the Roosevelt pronunciation, too-with
the way his closing order was obeyed
yesterday. THE closing Of business
houses on the Sabbath day is not new
thing" he said. I'm more than thou
sand cities of the country business
houses generally are shut up on sun
people of Topeka get used to the clos
ing ordinance they will not seriously
object to 1T, to my mind. The only
ones that are seriously opposed to the
ordinance now are those who have
mercenary axe to grind. The man who
has heretofore kept open and sold goods
because others were closed mas been
the most pronounced kicker against the
closing programme of the city authort-
ties.
80 far as the Sunday labor law is
concerned, do not know that we shall
try to enforce that ordinance. 1t is SO
sweeping in it's terms that do not feel
like passing on it Of course the courts
would have to pass on my rulings later,
but if we were to undertake to enforce
1t I would have to interpret what Is
meant by the phrase that says no un-
necessary labor shall be done on Sun
day either by an employer or his en-
ploye. 1 should certainly not like to
say Just what might be necessary labor
and what is not. So the closing ordt-
ance should not be burdensome to the
public Customers may order their
fresh meat and have it delivered on
Sunday, the same way with their ice
cream and various other perishable
things"
Major T. J. Anderson, secretary of
the Topeka Commercial club, said that
quite an episode happened at his home
Saturday as a result of the Sunday
closing programme of the mayor.
when 1 reached home Saturday even
ing" he said II found my wife In the
kitchen with her hands in a bowl mix
ing flour and yeast. In reply to my
questions she said that the baker had
sold out all his bread and that as she
could get no bread on Sunday, owing
TO the closing law she had determined
10 put the yeast in the flour and bake
her own bread for Sunday. o, no you
don't 1 said that would be breaking
the law by making the yeast work on
Sunday So we did without bread"
he laughingly said
Many of the druggists and others seen
this morning who were most erected
by the closing ordinance said that they
had no definite plans on the question.
When the theater case which has been
long pending is settled, they said. other
test cases might be made or new ordi-
nance might be asked for. Most OF
those most concerned in the observance
of the Sabbath by closing their bust
ness houses declare, however, that the
law is a foolish and useless one, that
the present age has outgrown that sort
of morality and that this age Is far
ahead of those when people closed their
stores on Sunday and burned witches
on Friday"

Big Crowd at East Sound

Atleast 100 people would have at
tended the East Sound celebration
from here had there been transporta-
tion facilities for so many. The steam
er Buckeye carried fifty, the full
number allowed under her inspection
certificate without special excursion
permit, obtainable only from the ma
rine inspectors in Seattle. The base
ball team and a number of others
went on launches and twenty or more
who wished to 60 were obliged to re-
main at home. The celebration there
was the most largely attended of any
in the county. Nearly 200 people
came over from Belingham i1 the
steamer Rosalie, and the Yosemite
brought about 700 from Seattle,
whose stay, however, was necessari-
ly quite limited on account Of the long
distance.
