DR.. MAYORS SPEECH.
Former Washburn Orator Delivers
Alumni address.

The annual Alumni association ad-
dress took place at the Washburn
chapel last night. After the render
ing of piano selection by Miss Har-
rison of the class of 1899. and a vocal
duet by Mrs. Mabel Renwick Hughes.
1908, and Miss Agnes Millice. 1905,
DIR. Wilson S. Naylor of Lawrence
university, Appleton, Wis. was in
troduced by Mr.. Hugh Mcfarland,
president of the association.
DR.. Naylor was graduated from
Washburn college in 1890, and has
the distinction of being the only
of winning the interstate oratorical
contest. During 1903 he made a
trip to Africa in company with
Bishop Hartzen of the Methodist
book which is used as missionary
text book and is in its seventy
seventh edition. His address was
one of the most scholarly which has
been given before the association.
He said in part:
what warrant is there for uniting the
terms?
..There are two problems that are
fundamental to culture. How to
command leisure for cultivation of
ideals; how to command industry for
ideals. The old world solved the
problem easily. 1t imposed all the
work upon a large majority of the
people, and delegated smaller
minority to do all the resting. The
few had leisure for learning; the
MANY were without learning.
There is mass of most illumi-
mating figures which are usually used
to encourage youth towards acquiring
an education. There are $4,000 900
youths of school age in the United
States, and of these 100000, 12.-
900, 900 acquire the equivalent of a
common school education: $4,000 ac-
quire the equivalent of high school
education, and 1900 the equivalent
of a college education. This means
that the common lot is separated
from the liberallv educated in the
ratio of 1900 to one"
The speaker then gave data show
ing that the man with the college
education draws a far better income
after a certain period of years than

Lester Ward, who is believed by
many leading educators without a
sociological questions continued DR..
Mailer, declared, however, that
genius is distributed universally
throughout all classes of society. His
Investigations show that genius may
as readily be found in the humber
walks of life as among the most
privileged classes provided that con-
ditions for the manifesting of genius
be present
Culture is the drawing out of the
individual into the larger life of the
society which surrounds him. 1t is
an adjustment of the individual to
the world of men and nature. 1t is
power that makes for the beauty and
worth of human nature. The man
who is truly cultured is the one who
gets next to his fellow men.
I'm speaking of the common lot I
do not mean merely the day laborer.
I mean by the common lot man
who does a certain work as an ac-
tivity of his life which is to him
drudgery I believe there will come
a time when there will be no
drudgery.'
DR.. Naylor then pointed out that in
essential for every man as all the
world despise nothing more than an
idle man. He considered that the
tendency of the development of the
human race is towards universal
democracy and equal advantages. In
| his closing remarks he said: we
must strangle the thought that the
world owes every man living with
the larger truth that every man owes

Mrs. III. Level VIII Take Quarrel of
Sisters to District Court.

In the court of Topeka, Mrs. H
Level was fined 1 cent and costs, on a
charge of disturbing the peace, but she
has appealed to the district court.
1t was CLEANED from the evidence
that Mrs. Level does not get along
nicely with her sister, Hazel Freeman.
Their mother lives with Hazel, and
Hazel has frequently forbidden Mrs
Level to come around the place But
recently Mrs. Level was informed by
a friend that sister Hazel was going
away to leave mother alone, so she
went over to see about it. Hazel was
very much at home, however. and the
visit terminated in rough house
Hazel had her sister arrested for dis
turbing her peace. Both colored wom-
en- were represented by excellent legal
talent Judge w. r. Hazen defended
Mrs. Level, who is a hard working
woman and washes for the Hazen fam
lily. Sister Hazel works for Colonel
Wood at the Glen-Wood hotel, so
Colonel Wood hired Ed McKeever to
assist in the prosecution.
The novel fine of / cent was assessed
by Judge pro tenn H. G. Larimer.

Commercial club eat down town under
other conditions. But the action was
taken anyhow on account of the objec-
lions of the hotel keepers and restau-
rant proprietors.
The time limit for afternoon hour
meetings was made July 1, on account
of several affairs of this kind having
been scheduled for June. The mer-
chants and jobbers will be here June %
and a smoker has already been ar
ranged and advertised for this time.
Envelopes, which all the business men
are sending out. have announcements
of this affair and it would be mani
testify unfair to change the programme
at this late date. The insurance men
of Kansas will meet here June Is and
an affair of some kind had been
planned for the evening of that date
These will of course be carried out, but
no new affairs of any kind will be
scheduled for any date after the first
of July for any time later than the
noon hour. 1t was decided that
even the Topeka Ad club which is in a
way affiliated with the Commercial
club would have to go elsewhere Tor
lunches are served. This should prove
a balm to the restless hotel men who
are complaining because of the CLUB
going into the hotel business"
What the Commercial club really has
been doing is to get together at the
noon hour and plan how to bring con-
ventions into the city in order to make
business pick up for the inn and tav-
ern landlords.
The directors of the Topeka Country
club held a. meeting this noon In the
Commercial club apartments, at which
several matters of Importance were
discussed Plans were made for the
entertainment of the State Golf asso-
citation members who Will be here June
% "a % and 26, to compete in the
state tournament. Players are expected
from Wichita, Hutchinson, Newton,
Arkansas City and Kansas City, Kan.
This will be the largest affair of the
kind ever held in Topeka and the ef-
forts of the club will be devoted to
making it such q success that Topeka
will be the location for many future
state tournaments. Topeka has the
finest Country club in the state and
should have no trouble in showing the
visitors a good time.
Four new members were voted into
the club at noon today. Three active
members were E. a. Herbst, S. P. Mold
and Judge Clark A. Smith. Harry w.
Eagle was voted in as an associate
member.
John F. Norton has been appointed
chairman of a committee which con-
sists also of Mrs. Norman Wear and
Mrs. Lizzie Norton which will provide
ar evening entertainment at some date
this month at which all the relatives
and friends of the members will be in
vited to the Country club.

RAILROADING
IN KANSAS
Really a Game of Chance at
Times
Under the Law Protecting EN-.
ployes From Working
Them Overtime.

Kansas is a great state, said the
man whose business keeps him jumping
from town to town In the sunfloweI
country, "all except the railroads, and
these sure did bother me in the few
months that l, a raw Easaerner, spent
in the state
1t is a game of chance sometimes
to get from place to place and it isn't
all due 10 the fact that the furoner
you get away from New York the
more railroad schedules go awry
They have law in Kansas 6that no
railroad eGnploye shall work more
than Is hours on a stnetch, and tnats
what plays the dickens.
"A few superb trains pass Through
Kansas-that's what they do, pass
through scarcely stopping long enough
to say bowdy. They are going nc
the Coast or returning and once in
a while can make trip from one big
town 10 another in true Eastern style
but for the short local trips tnat my
business demands IDS mixed freight
and passenger lruins most OF inc Time.
Here's where the law to pro- eot
employees works like wheel of for
tune. Tue schedule may call for AR

TO be handled at preceding stopping

and miles short of distinction.
If tljs limit does so expire there's
nouhing for it but 10 run the train to
the next place that resembles, stop
If it's only a siding, and lay ii off
The next train that comes along
doubles up with the stalled train and
takes the law-protected ig'ainmen alon

They mustn't work, mind you, until
eight hours have elapsed. Occasionally
there is no next train for more than
eight hours. In that case dine crew,
having had it's legal rest, may resume
work.
This is gospel truth I'm telling you

Wild Animals in India.

A return Issued by the Government
OF India shows that the total NOR
tality among human beings reported
to be due to wild animals in 1907
amounted to 1866 as compared with
2,0S6 in 1906. The total Is the lowest
on record since the practice of collect
ing these statistics was initiated. The
most noticeable variations from tine
figures of last year occur in Bengal,
the United Provinces and the Central
Provinces, while in Madras there was
a comparatively large increase-from
167 TO colin the number OF persons
killed by tigers. The total mortality
among human beings caused by snake
bite fell from 22,S11 in 1906 to 21,419
In 1907. So low a figure has not been
reached since 1897.
The Lauder-Brunton treatment cd
snake bite by incision and application
of permanganate Of potash and the
distribution OF lancets continues, but
as usual the value OF the results is
discounted by the absence of identifi-
cation of the snake that inflicted the
bite. In Burmah nearly all the death
