Although there was 6 falling off of $2, 755, : OOO in the gross revenues, there was also a decrease of $9, OPS, ,0OO in expenses. This gave net profits higher by $6, 273,OO0 than the year before.
 There was also an increase of S1, ,278,0 in other incomes.
 The total operating revenue amounted to $120, 321, sos, and the total operating expenses were S79,584,375 Deducting taxes and other expenses and adding income outside of operat- ing revenues, gave total income of $46, 209, 882, and when the fixed charges were paid out of this, a surplus was left of $26, ,679, 4O2.
 This figure gives more than 10 per cent on the outstanding com mon stock.

These are but a part of the enjoyable

CITY HALL NEWS.
Committee Recommends Raise
Of Mayors Salary.
From 81, 500 to $4,000 a Year
Is Suggested.
GREEN IN HIS OFFICE.
Characteristics of City's Chief
Executive.
Lecture No. 3 From City Milk
Inspector.

The ways and means committee of
the city council have formulated a
plan by which the mayor of Topeka is
to receive hereafter for his annual sal
airy $4,000. This is a $500 increase
over what has been given before.
The cause of this radical change
was born directly under the eyes of
the last administration. Ever since
he has been in office Mayor William
Green has spent every day in the Of
flee at the city hall at the sacrifice of
his health and his business. The To-
peka mayor is at the head of a big
grocery firm and has many business
connections but since his election to
the office of the chief executive of the
city of Topeka he has thrown aside
his private affairs and has devoted all
of his attention to the good and the
needs of the city.
Mayor Green is, in this manner. diff
terent from any mayor ever holding
office in Topeka. This city never en-
Ioyed such clean and wholesome ad-
mini5tration and the many CITY of
Ices were never filled to such an en-

officers and shaking hands with ev-
erybody. And the OFFICIALS have
learned to set their watches by the
click of the key in the mayors office
door.
When the State Journal reporter
first finds the goodnatured mayor in
the morning, he is still distributing
smoke from this same sweet scented
cigar and with a letter opener in one
hand and pieces of the stack of mail

of the city hall, ]. S. Weir, is another
man who deserves an advance in sal

much for one man. Tonight at the
council meeting it is expected that all
of the recommendations will be made.
1.-The Price of Milk is the title of
this third household lecture by DR.. D.
NJ. Campbell, city milk inspector 1t is
Interesting to note the manner in which
the doctor explains the reason for the
increase in price. 1t is much different
than that explained by other authori-
ties:
THE price of milk like the price of
any other article not controlled by a
monopoly, is governed by supply and
demand. Five years ago the local pro-
duction of milk exceeded consumption
at this place $4,000 pounds daily during
the summer and by somewhat less
amount during the winter. Since that
time there has been a steady decrease
in the excess of milk produced at this
point over that consumed by the city,
until during the summer of 1908 the
excess of local production over local
consumption was less than 1000 pounds
daily, and during the past winter the
supply has not been equal to the de-
mand even at the higher price asked
and mad the price been the same as it
was preceding winters the milk pro-
duced in the vicinity of Topeka would
have been totally inadequate to surDly
the city trade during the past winter
The causes effecting the produc-
ton of milk about this city are in no
wise under the control Of the con-
sumner but it may be interesting to
the one who pays the bills to know,
that the decreased production and
increased price are fundamentally due
to the exceedingly high prices re-
ceived for other farm products, and
to the increasing difficulty in securing
reliable farm help
while the price of pasture, alfalfa,
corn. bran and other COW feed re-
mains so high as at present, good or
even passably fair milk cannot be
produced and profitably sold at the
prices that formerly prevailed IN this
city. Unless there is a marked i'm
provement in the kind OF dairy cows

kept about this city, consumers should
take this into account and expect an
inferior grade when they buy very
cheap milk"
Council meeting tonight. At this
meeting the old councilmen whose
terms have expired and who have not
been reelected will bow their adieu
and the new members will take their
chairs with thanks. When the new
there will be three Democrats and
eight Republicans. Fraser from the
Fourth Ward and Lannan and Miller
from the Second will constitute the
old Democrats who will retain their
seats. D. B. Fink who was recently
elected from the First ward makes
the additional Democrat and his vic
tory cuts down the number of Re
publicans Four to eight is a good
showing for a minority and the Demo-
Gratis of the city will have good rea-
son to be proud of their councilmen
this year.
There are many important measures
to be taken up by the council tonight.
First will be the automobile ordi-
nance. This has not been passed with
any satisfaction. Then comes tne
opening of the thoroughfare through
the state house grounds for the
benefit of the bicycle riders and auto
lists This will be taken up for the
purpose of giving Councilman Horn
a chance to display his oratorical
abilities once more before he retires.
The bid on the construction of the
No fire department will be opened
and contracts awarded. The new
councilmen will be sworn in and all
the old business of the past year will
be closed up. Is it apples and cigars
tonight?
Street Commissioner Snyder states
that the streets will be in excellent
condition for the Easter services Sun
day and the winsome lass, also the
lady love will be perfectly at liberty
to wear their very best. The sweepers
and sprinklers are working over time
for the good appearance of the streets
at this time.

BUFFALO FIREMEN
PLEASED WITH TRIP

The Buffalo illustrated Times. of sun
day September 10Th contained the fol-
lowing:
"The Exempts marched into town at
o'clock last night, having arrived on
their special Lehigh Valley train. Their
band was playing merrily, their dainty
hose cart with the buffalo head on the
front looked as natty as ever and they
were leading a funny-looking long-haired
goat.
"where'd you get the goat Biil?" yelled
a friend, as VIM. j. Kernahan passed
the corner of Exchange street
Down in Delaware" answered all the
Exempts at once.
When interviewed last night after the
triumphal return OF the firemen, Mr
Kernahan described the trip as "the
greatest ever" He told how in Reading
Pa the Laurel Fire Company received
their Buffalo comrades with a display
OF fireworks that made it look as II the
whole city was in flames. At the banquet
given them there the mayor addressed
the firemen and personally handed over
the city TO them. And at York and Co
lumbia the ovations were repeated.
But it was at Wilmington. Delaware,
that everything ever dreamed Of in the
way of a reception was eclipsed. The
police had almost to resort TO force to
break the crowds to allow the Exempts
to pass through. The entire department.
of the city bade them welcome and lesr
the visitors might not hear the giant
whistles Of the city's twelve steamers
screeched forth until the Buffalonians
couldn't hear themselves think" And
then the fireworks and the banquet, but
that was not abby no means"

THE DOCTORS WIFE
Agrees With Him About Food.

a trained nurse says: 'In the prac-
tice of my profession I have found so
many points in favor Of Grape Nuts
food that / unhesitatingly recommend
it to all my patients.
1t is delicate and pleasing 10 the pal
ate Tan essential in food for the sick
and can be adapted TO all ages, being
softened with milk or cream for babies
OF the aged when deficiency Of teeth
renders mastication impossible. For
fever patients or those on liquid diet
/ find Grape Nuts and albumen water
very nourishing and refreshing
This recipe Is my own idea and is
made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful
OF Grape Nuts in a glass of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white OF an egg and a spoonful
OF fruit juice for fiavouring. This af-
fords a great deal Of nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assimi-
late without any distress.
MY husband is a physician and he
uses Grape Nuts himself and orders Il
many times for his patients.
Personally 1 regard a dish Of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick"
In any case OF stomach trouble, ner-
Nous prostration or brain fag, a 10
day trial OF Grape Nuts viii work
wonders toward nourishing and rebuild
ing and in this way ending the trouble.
