FRANK THOMAS TOOK TT BACK.
Changed His Mind on Making a Plea
Of Guilty.

Frank Thomas, who has been ar
rested three times recently for selling
Intoxicating liquors in North Topeka
and who has been in jail since his last
arrest on March %, made known to
Mr.. Schenck, the county attorney. yes
terday afternoon that he would plead
guilty to couple of the counts against
him. Mr.. Schenck was in favor of
this proposition and expected to bring
Thomas to the court room for this
purpose during the afternoon.
Thomas had decided to plead guilty
because he thought his friends had de-
serted him in that none of them had
come forward with ball for him since
his last arrest. Word soon got around
town that Thomas had decided to
plead guilty and before he got a chance
to do SO Henry Steele came around
with $500 in gold which he put up as
an additional bond for Thomas When
this money had been put up Thomas
"gigged back on his proposition to
is now out on $500 bail. $500 for
each time he has been arrested.

GEORGE p. HAYDEN A TOPEKAN
State Senator From NeInaha viii
Practice Law Here.

George P. Hayden, state senator
from Nemaha county, has decided to
make his home in Topeka in the fu-
ture. He will engage in the practice
of law here and will be associated with
his brother, Richard F. Hayden. the
probate judge of Shawnee county.
They have organized the law firm of
Hayden & Hayden and will establish
their office in suite 20 on the second
floor of the Crawford.
The deter mination of Senator Hay
den to move to Topeka will be well
come news to a large coterie of friends
he has here and with whom he is
decidedly popular. Although not far
advanced in years. Senator Hayden has
been prominent in the political arena,
and has served with credit in both
branches of the legislature.
His removal from Nemaha county
will necessarily mean his retirement
from that particular section of the
political field, but it does not mean his
withdrawal from active political work
in the interests of the Republican par
ty and its success.
Senator Hayden Is never loquacious
so he had not very extended state
ment to make when asked about his
future plans
IT have decided to make my home
in Topeka he said, land will take up
the active practice of law"

TIMBER LAND RELEASED.
A Revocation of Interior Department
Orders Opens $4,000 Acres.

Washington. April 5.-The orders of
the interior department. dated Deem
Der and Is, 1905. Withholding from
patent all final timber culture entries
and commuted homestead entries in
Kansas, have been revoked. The action
was taken today by Secretary Garfield
on recommendation; of the commission
er of the general land office. Mr.. Balm
ger. Approximately $50 timber culture
entries and 220 committed homestead
proofs, affecting about $4,000 acres of
land, have been released by the with
drawals
Extensive Investigations in the last
two years have weeded out most of the
fraudulent entries and it was not DEEM
ed advisable further to continue the
blanket order of suspension. The revo-
cation of the suspension does not affect
these entries against which specific
charges have been fled. The represen-
tatives of the land office in Kansas will
continue their Investigations and efforts
to convict persons engaged in illegally
securing possession of public lands by
means Of fraudulent entries.

NO HARM TO REGISTER.
Wichita Judge Decides the Wrong Is
i'll the Attempting to Vote.

Wichita, Kan, April 5.-When the
cases of Anna Weston. Nose Weston
and H. r. Burroughs were called in
the city court Thursday the defen-
dants were all discharged. Judge Dyer
held that registering was not in itself
a crime. That an oath was not re-
quired.
He declared that every person in the
city could register as many times as
they wished and could not legally be
arrested. That the only crime con-
nected with the act would be on the
attempt of those not legally entitled to
a vote to enter a booth and attempt to
vote.
