ashburn College in Danger OF
Losing $4,000.
Because Topeka People Have
Failed to Make Good
SUBSCRIPTIONS OF19O7
All Subscribed in Good Faith
But Nearly
Half Never Has Been Paid by
Subscribers to Treasurer.

Washburn college is likely to lose
from $4,000 to $4,000 in cash en-
dowment and property. and an in
come or $500 year because of the
FAILURE of Topeka subscribers to make
good their subscriptions.
This is a lamentable truth to utter
lt is a sad reflection upon many peo-
pie who have failed to keen their
agreements
ABOUT two years ago Andrew Car
nesie agreed to give Washburn COL
lege $4,000; the board of education
Of New York city agreed to give $25.-
oOO additional; Jonathan Thomas
agreed to build a gymnasium to cost
$4,000 debt. pay rs
All provided that the citizens of To-
peka subscribed $4,000.
This was a most tempting nronosi-
ton and loyal and enthusiastic friends
OF the citizens committee which met

money which meant so much ad-
dltional money
After hard work covering a month
or more, during which there was
much enthusiasm and daily uneetinrs

at noon and discussed methods ana
announced subscriptions. The happy
announcement was finally made that
the full amount of $4,000 had been
subscribed.
late date that only a trihe over one
haf of the amount has been maid in.
the rest is delinquent
The New York city board of educa-
tlon has accordingly only paid its
agreed percentage of the $25. 600 it
mad offered; that is. only a little more
than one-half of that amount The
balance depends upon a prompt pay
ment of the unpaid Topeka sub
scriptions.
All of the $4,000 offered by Andrew
Carnegie depends upon the full paw
ment of the Topeka subscriptions.
me gymnasium building is a reality
anu Is mucn more costly than prom
lsed and was built upon the faith Of
the Topeka subscriptions being paid
All who have paid their subscrip-
tons as they agreed to pay them, and
many have done so by working hard
ships to themselves, did so believing
that all the pledges made by the other
Topeka subscribers would be met and
with the understanding that if the
necessary amount was not subscribed
in full their own subscriptions would
not be binding.
What are the delinquents going 10
do about it
OF course there is only one thing
for them to do and that is to pay them
at once; whether they have overlook
ed them, have been negligent or have
hot Intended 10 pay 1t Is hoped that
none is in this last position.
The subscriptions are legal They
are also more than legal. There would
be unusual dishonor attached to a
repudiation of such subscriptions.
Your neighbor paid because he was sure
you would pay; the college has made
extensions on your promises, and has
been running in debt, falling to get its
expected income from your agree
ments; that is if you are one of the de-
linquents.
The treasurer of the college is Mr..
James F. Griffin. 703 Jackson street. and
this appeal ought to bring the money
to him.

Five Men Killed Instantly in a Mine

Joplin, Mo-. Feb 27-Five men
We're instantly killed and two others

night The dead are:
HARRY RITTER,

The fatally injured are: Burt Ritter
and Frank Owsley, both will die.
The seven men were at work tim
bering the roof which had been pro-
nounced unsafe, when the enormous
slab fell, grinding the victims beneath
tons of dirt. Burt Ritter, Gilbert Rit-
ter and Harry Ritter are brothers,
Burt being in charge of the work
when the slab fell. The drift in
which the men were working had been
pronounced unsafe.
The reScuers upon entering the drift
located the injured men by their
groans and after thirty minutes work
succeeded in reaching them The
bodies of two of the dead were remov-
ed but the drift is so dangerous the
remaining bodies were allowed to re-

He was very anxious to effect a peace
able settlement and when he left me in
the Arcade he thanked me for what I had
done and his eyes filled with tears"
At this point Judge Hart indicated that
he believed the result of the conferences
were admissible, but not the language
used at them.
The jury, was recalled and the governor
repeated those portions of his previous
testimony which the court had declared
were admissible. The restrictions of the
court made the witness testimony very
brief. When the defense was through,
General Garner said
The governor may stand aside. Later

WELCOME HOME.
Extended to the Blue Jackets
of Battleship Fleet
By the citizens of Norfolk and
Surrounding Country.

Norfolk, Va, Feb. 27.-Norfolk paid a
home coming tribute to 1000 officers and
blue jackets from the American battle
fleet today With f1aring trouser ends
snugly reefed down in canvas leggings,
with jaunty white caps setting off the
deep blue of the service uniforms and
with rifles slung over their shoulders,
the men from the fleet paraded through
thee principal streets of the city and
were received with cheers by practically
all of Norfolk's population. Main street
was so crowded in places that barely
enough room was left for the sailors to
pass. The men of the fleet passed
through admiring throngs who in their
ca gerness to observe the blue jackets
forgot all but the spontaneous cheer OF
came along playing Dixie" Then the
crowds broke into tumultuous tribute
which was caught up all the way dawn
the lines The men from the Virginia
received a veritable ovation.
In traversing Main street the sailors
and their escort passed through a cor
don of honor in front of the reviewing
stand composed of hundreds of veterans
of both the Confederate and Union
armies. Admiral Tausig, commandment
OF the Norfolk navy yard, reviewed the
parade and was saluted by all of the
men in passing
The blue Jackets made a splendid
showing in spite of their long stay on
necticut. Admiral Sperry's flagship.
had the right of line. There was no
doubt of the genuine hospitality OF the
sailors welcome despite the fact that
the volume of cheering at times must
have been somewhat disappointing to
the men who on their long cruise re-
ceived the unstinted applause of many
nations.
Nearly every person on the crowd
ed streets and sidewalks held flag
and these were waved in greeting.
The city was decorated as seldom be-
fore The crowd of onlookers spread
from the streets to the windows and
roofs of buildings along the line of
march and business was suspended
until the sailors left for their ships
late in the afternoon.
Following the parade the officers
were entertained at an elaborate
luncheon at the Monticello hotel,
