Why Men Sleep in Church.

1t is an undisputed fact, we be-
lieve, that many persons who have
no difficulty in keeping awake any
where else, will nod in church in
spite of themselves. Why is this?
A Chicago physician gives us a
plausible answer: IF ministers
want %appreciative audiences" says
the doctor, "let them ventilate
their churches. Give the deacon
fresh air to breathe, such as he is
accustomed to on other days of
the W tx and he will stay awake
during the sermon on Sunday as
easily as he does during the horse
trade on Saturday"
And there is full enough truth in
what the doctor says to warrant
every church society in giving
heed to his words. A church
should be ventilated for the same
reason that a school room should
be vedtilated--in the first place,
for the physical good of those who
are to occnpy the room, and in
the second place, the preacher or
the teacher wants the intelligent
attention of the congregation or
the classes, and it is a physical
impossibility to get this from per-
sons in a room filled with air that
has been used.

Jersey asylum for the insane at Nor

believed to be Prof. Harrington was
found wandering about the streets of
Trenton over year ago, and was un-
about himself and as he carried no
papers that would reveal his identity,
he was sent to Morris Plains. Had it
not been for the chance reading of
an article in a western paper by his
son, Redmond Harrington, describing
a patient in the asylum the mans
identify might never have been
learned. The sons suspicious were
aroused, and he communicated with
his mother who now lives in this city.
She visited Morris Plains and there it

Mrs. Harrington says that since
the time her husband had left their
home some ten years ago, she had
heard from him twice, shortly after
he left, one letter coming from
Raleigh, N. c., and another post
marked Washington, D. c. He did
not say in either letter why he left
home or when he expected to return.
A month later, a sister of Mrs.
Harringtons living in Baltimore said
she had seen the man on the street,
but did not speak to him as he did not
seem to recognize her.

7. B. GEROW Is DEAD.
State Employment Agent Passes
Away in Atchison.

Theodore B. Gerow, state free en-
p1oyment agent, died Thursday after
noon at his home in Atchison, after
a sickness of several weeks.
Mr.. Gerow has been free employ
ment agent for eight years. He was
appointed by Governor Stanley, and
held the office throughout Governor
Bailey's and Governor Hoch's admin
istration.s He was an old soldier.
and at one time was prominent as a
campaign orator AS state free en-
ployment agent he did a lot of work
for the state, and sent thousands of
fields during the times when there
was great demand for men.
During harvest time, especially, Mr..
Gerow was one Of the busiest men
pared a big map of the state and as
fast as kilograms would come in for
men in different cities and localities
he would mark that number on the
map, also in book. Then he would
look up his time tables and decide
the shortest route between the place
where he had men waiting and the
place where they were, wanted. With
a little telgraphing he would have the
men on the road and that community
would be supplied. He worked this
system in each county where men
were needed and with a few excep-
lions there was never anything but
praise for his work.
Mr.. Gerow is survived by a wife
and four children. He was born in
New York city in 1916. During, the
civil war he was member of the
Fifth New York volunteer infantry
and had a commendable war record.
In 1873 he came west and settled on
a ranch near Fort Scott, Kan. The
following year he came to Atchison,
which city has been his home since.
Previous to 1900 he was city clerk of
Atchison for a period of ten years. In

WHO HIT MIR. STRACK?
That Is What Judge Simon Is Trying
to Find Out.

Two of the many witnesses in the
Russian assault case, in which John
Deagan is defendant, gave their testi-
mony in the court of Topeka Thursday
afternoon. Although the trial will not
be held until Thursday of next week,
these witnesses wished to leave the
city, and their evidence-if it might
be called such-was taken. Holman
and Gerling were the witnesses. and
County Clerk s. C. Zimmerman made
change for the testimony. Interpreted
ton was no easy matter, as the mem
bers of the Russian colony talk a mix
ture of German and SIav. After they
had been questioned and cross ques-
toned for some time, nothing had
been CLEANED in the way of evidence
except that every male inhabitant of
Little Russia" seemed to have been
gloriously drunk on the night of Octo-
Der rs. The witnesses testified intel
igently as to the number of quarts of
whisky consumed by themselves Dea-
gan, the defendant, and Strack the
man who was assaulted. About seven
quarts of tamarack were accounted
for, but the blow of an axe or some
other weapon which put Strack out of
commission, was not seen by the wit
nesses. They spent most of the time
consumed on the witness stand in
tracing their own movements, from
house to house, and carefully enumer-
attng the quarts of whisky they pun
ished at each stop. At the home of
Ignatz Bright they encountered Bright
and Strack, who, after taking a few
drinks with them, kicked them out of
the house. Some time later, they OBJ

pressing desire to kill him.
The preliminary hearing of Deagan
was originally set for Thursday of tI<s
week, but was continued a week by
the court, because many of the wit

issued, and were not on hand

JUSTICE GRAVES A HUMoR1sT.
Announces New Rule to Govern Jail
Habitations of Jointists.

No one has ever suspected that
Justice c. B.. Graves. the most majes-
tic and solemn of all the supreme
court judges. is really humorist
The truth became known. however.
when the last batch of opinions
came down week ago.
In this lot of opinions was one in
the case of Murphy VS. the city of
Wichita. Murphy was accused of
running joint in Wichita. He was
convicted and sentenced to Jail for 80
days. He appealed on the ground that
the city ordinance of Wichita on the
subject of liquor selling was void be-
cause 1t was not in harmony with
state law; that state law required all
city ordinances to be uniform: that
city jails throughout the state are not
uniformly comfortable, and therefore
that city ordinances are not uniform.
After announcing that the supreme
court does not concur with Mr.. Muir
phys contention. Justice Graves, in
his opinion goes on to say:
"If a joint keeper in any city thinks
the Jail there worse than in other
cities, the law will permit him to
move his business to wherever he
can find a jail that is satisfactory.
THE Judgment of the district court
is affirmed"
