Valley View mature pure silver is

One of these veins, and a promising

the amount of excavation done as the
sewer was constructed from what would
have been done had the sewer been con-
structed all along at the elevation
shown on the original prof1le,-a con-
clusion so preposterous as to make his
whole report ridiculous, unworthy of
any confidence whatever and showing
him devoid of any sense of honor or
pride of reputation.
Finally after complimenting with
much JUNCTION nearly everybody In
any way connected with the invests
cation, and having admitted all but one
misconstruction of the sewer, Ellis
winds up with a statement to the eff
feet that in all his wide experience IN
sewer construction he had never seen
a sewer of like extent so nearly built
according to the original plans and
prof1les nor so efficient as the Fifth
ward sewer; and then insults the peo-
pie in the district whose cellars can
not be drained by complimenting the
taxpayers-those paying for this botch-
ed and misconstructed sewer-upon
their getting such an excellent sewer
for so small a cost,-thus adding
climax to his efforts to divert atten-
ton from the real issue and lead to
conclusions the facts would not war
rant.
1t is clear to all who have given his
report any attention and have any
knowledge of the facts underlying this
whole matter that in securing the ser
vices of this man Ellis to make an in
vestigation on the questions in contro-
versy as relates to the construction of
this sewer, the then mayor and the
special committee were shamefully i'm
posed upon, and that the action of the
then mayor in reinstating James F.
McCabe and w. E. King, city engineer
and assistant, then under suspension,
while the matter was still in the hands
of the sewer committee for further in
vestigation, basing such action direct
ly or indirectly upon the Ellis report,
was premature.

After the death of her husband, David
w. Stormont, Mrs. Stormont gave a
large fortune to charitable and other
organizations. Beside the money given
by her husband she has given $4,000 to
the Topeka Library association. At one
time she gave $4,000 to the First Pres
byterlan church. At another time she
gave 1880 to the Ing1eside Home.
Smaller gifts were many, including $500
to Washburn college and $500 to an
eastern school for girls
Mrs. Stormont has probably given $780,
900 to the Stormont hospital. Eight years
ago deeds to property aggregating $780,
600 in value were given to the Ingle-
side Home and Stormont hospital.

YOUNG HAD A CLOSE CALL.
Veterinarian Under the Feet of Frantic
Horse.

John o. Young, a veterinarian, with
offices at No. 426 Quincy street, had a
narrow escape from serious injury at
the feet of a horse yesterday morning.
He came within an ace of being tram
pied to death but luckily managed to
get away with a badly bruised knee
remarkable that his leg was not
broken.
Mr. Young was called to the Walton
farm. seven miles to the southwest of
the city, yesterday morning to fix up a
horse that had lacerated it's hind leg
in a runaway with a load of hay. While
Mr.. Young was dressing the wound.
which was large one, the horse stood
perfectly still. even though consider
able muscle that had been bruised and
torn had to be cut away. As soon
as Mr.. Young started in to sew up the
wound the horse gave a sudden kick
1t struck Mr. Young on the left leg
just below the knee. 1t knocked his
feet out from under him and he fell
forward right under the horse. Then
the animal began to kick at him, but
Mr.. Young was in such a position that
the horses hoofs could not reach him
at once and the animal was backed
over him by others who were nearby
before any damage could be done.
AS soon as Mr.. Yong found that his
leg had not been broken, he had the
horse thrown and sewed up the wound
in its leg Then he came to town and
had his own bruised leg dressed. He
will be limping around for some time
btu thinks that he got off pretty lucky
under the circumstances.

MOVING PICTURES POPULAR.
This Has Been Demonstrated Clearly
at VineWood Park.

That moving pictures. especially
good moving pictures. appeal to we'll
educated and intelligent people, as
well as children. has been amply
proved to the Vinewood park manag e-
ment during the three weeks that the
free attraction at the park has con-
sisted of moving pictures. The man
agement was almost afraid to try NOV
ing pictures for fear they would not
appeal to a large percentage of the
parks patrons. But they were sur
prised to notice that the pictures have
resulted in a healthy increase in the
usual patronage of the park. The pic
lures. which continue for half an hour
every evening, seem to draw better
than the ''thrillers'' that the park
management secured regularly during
the early part of the season and whose
stunts lasted only long enough for
person to catch his breath. As a re-
suit of the pictures and the concerts
by Swearingen's band every evening
the park has had a much larger pa
tronage SO far this month than during
the corresponding part of August last
wear.
