suited in a drouth in the Elks,
Turner and Skat clubs for the first
time in history The members of the
Topeka club resent being classed with
so-called drinking clubs, and have
paid no attention to the order of
the chief of police, which they
assert, does not concern their club in
the least. The Topeka club has al
ways had a strict locker system and
the officers and house committee say
they have obeyed the laws in the past
and will continue to do SO, but will
make no change from the policy fol-
lowed since the organization of the
club.
I'VE are obeying the law as we I'M
derstand it." said a member of the
house committee of the club this
morning, land have always obeyed it.
There is no liquor sold in our club,
where each member owns his own
locker and stocks it as he chooses.
Our steward is on a salary; he is not
a Joint keeper. Drinking is not the
object of our club. 1t is a gentle

its members We are not defying the

was not cordial A number of the
club men were sitting on the veranda
when he came up the steps of the

man, and asked for the steward. He
was told to ring the bell and the
steward would answer but he walked
in without permission. They in
formed him that the club was a

men at will IF you break into my

trouble. I suppose you would find
whisky in it but I defy you to touch
it."
The chief left without any further
show of authority and life at the To-
peka club goes on exactly the same as
before the pronunciamento of Satur-
day.
A. F. Colson, steward of the Elks. has
resigned his position since Saturday.
He Is to be steward of the Country
club this summer. The Elks will
manage their own dining room and
hire a steward after the plan followed
by the Topeka club-bdt the drinking
features have been entirely abandoned
since the order Saturday.

The engines were slowed down and at
daylight the Volturno was so COM

thing because the ice completely sur
rounded him. A wind sprang up early
Monday morning, making a channel
