NO CONTEST in SIGHT.
Defeated County Candidates VIII Take
Their Medicine.

The contest on the vote on precinct
committeeman in the second precinct
of the Fifth ward. started late Friday
evening by Attorney o. E. Hungate, in
favor of T. J. Hurley against Josiah
Jordan, has not, up to date, been
brought officially before the probate
court. An election contest. requiring
a recount, must be submitted to the
probate judge. who names two assist
ants and proceeds to count the ballots
of the precinct or ward in question.
Hungate filed his objection with the
county clerk and board of commission
ers, before the canvass of the vote was
completed. In the notice of contest, 1t
the morning of August 5, (while the
officers of the election precinct were
still counting ballots), three of the
election judges and clerks (not named
in the affidavit). went out to lunch.
Further that Josiah Jordan, one of the
candidates for the Office of precinct
committeeman, being present, volun-
teered to assist in counting the bal
lots. Here the complaint has to charge
something. SO it is further charged that
the said Josiah Jordan, while reading
ballots to the score keeper, called his
own name out of place on votes for
precinct committeeman, thereby giving
himself a small majority over Hurley,
his opponent.
OF course Mr.. Jordan says that the
and without foundation. The election
judges and clerks add their voice to
his denial. In this precinct, the vote,
as recorded on the books, shows: For
precinct committeeman. Hurley 116,
Jordan 1s1, or five majority for Jordan.
Mr. Jordan is rather peeved over the
assersion of his opponent, and says
that he would rather jump the job
than have lot of foolishness and ex-
pense. He doesn't care a whoop about
being precinct committeeman anyway.
Otis Hungate, attorney for Mr.. Hurley,
says that he cannot permit Mr. Jordan
TO withdraw in favor of anybody, and
that the vote on precinct committee
man for that precinct will have to be
recounted.
Mr.. Greenwood, defeated candidate
for the nomination for probate judge,
will not raise a contest on his winning
opponent, Mr.. Schoch. All efforts on
the part of the Greenwood supporters
cannot change the majority of IL held
by Mr.. Schoch. Mr.. Greenwood, how
ever. gave notice that he would like
for the probate court to conduct a re-
count of the vote on this office when
the precinct committeeman argument
came UP in the second precinct of the
Fifth ward No official notice has
been given by Mr.. Greenwood. Schoch
had a majority over Greenwood of ID
votes in that precinct. Should the pre-

sheriff yNilkerson Makes a Good Rec
ord at Salina. eff

Sheriff Wilkerson made a long trip
and a fast ride last night, when he
captured Robert Han, an insurance
solicitor, who is charged with receiv-
ing money under false pretense. Sher-
iff Wilkerson made run to Salina on
a train, where he arrived at 10 o'clock
last night. A few minutes later he
was in a powerful automobile owned
by a Mr.. Senter of Salina, headed for
Lincoln Center, AZ miles distant At
2 O'Clock this morning, Wilkerson was
again in Salina with his prisoner, hav-
ing made a round trip of "a miles In
four hours. 1t took some time In Lin
coin to find and secure the prisoner.
Sheriff Wilkerson and Mr.. Senter were
accompanied from Salina by E. B.
Chapman, editor of Mr.. Bristow's Sa-
lima paper, and formerly a Topeka
reporter.
The charge against Hall is that he
told S. r. Kutz, local representative of
the knights of the Protected Ark, that
he would work for him as a solicitor.
On this representation he secured $25
advance money from Kutz. 1t is fur
Their charged that he had no intention
of working for the K. P. A., and after
securing the money, returned AZ once
to the employ of the Campbell Insur-
ance company.
Up to noon today Hall had failed to
give bond, and was still in the county
Jail.

MILE. FALLIERES WEEDS,
Daughter of French President NIarries

Paris, Aug. 10.-As a sequence to
the separation of church and state in
France and incidentally, because of
the mourning of the bridegroom, the
marriage today of Madeline Anne
Marie F'allieres, daughter of the presi-
cent or the French republic to John
Jean Joseph Edward Lanes. the presi-
cents secretary. was not attended with
the special brilliancy which one might
expect would embellish the nuptials of
the daughter of the president of
France. Nevertheless the function was
a memorable social event, for all
France, irrespective of rank or situa-
ton In life, showed a warm, genuine
interest, evidencing the sincere affec-
ton with which President Fallieres is
held by the people of France.
The wedding was indeed striking for
its simplicity. The marriage party

TRIED BLOOD HOUNDS.
They Didn't Trail and Sheriff Was
Hurt Besides.

Sheriff John Wilkerson was pain
fully injured while investigating an
attempted burglary in North Topeka
this morning. Some time Sunday af-
ternoon, persons with burglarious in
tent. crawled into the cellar of the
North Kansas avenue, crawled
through a sea of mud and trash to an
inside cellar door, and sawed a hole in
the door. They were prevented from
making an entrance by an extra coun-
ter, about 10 feet long, which covered
the useless cellar door. In attempt
ing to force the door, the robbers up
set dozen bottles of pickles, which
made a large, healthy noise as they
broke on the floor. Further attempt
would have been useless anyway, as
the other end of the counter was
braced against a two-ton safe, evident
ly the object of the entrance.
When the attempted robbery was
discovered this morning, the proprie-
tor called Sheriff Wilkerson, and ask
ed him to try his bloodhounds on the
case. Wilkerson drove to the store
with his man-hunters, John" and
Lucy" and tried to lead them into
scent of the criminal. The condition
of that particular cellar is beyond de-
scription, having three feet of mud
and six feet of broken boxes to its
credit. The dogs were badly frighten-
ed by being dragged over the debris
and mud, and Wilkerson fell through
a rotton dry goods box and re-sprained
an ankle which has been bad for 40
years wilkerson got out of the cellar
with difficulty, and could not stand on
his foot. The dogs refused to pay any
attention to any one but their master,
and the attempt to trail the criminal
was given up.
Sheriff Wilkerson may be confined
to his home for several weeks.

David G. Mitchell fell from the top
through the false work some sixty
five feet into the river below, and was
not injured in the least. It was a
