live stock and farm products and last
year was the greatest wheat year the
state has ever known e Kansas can
not afford state fair at this time
when in the name of common sense
can it. The fact is that Kansas has
grown steadily in resources for years
but not in population as greatly as IL
should and we need the population to
make the state and its resources
greater.
For more than a quarter of CEN
tury Kansas has had nearly million
and one-hah population and while the
not as it should. Last year we
gained but about 5000 in population
Land in the vicinity of Topeka is SELL
ing at less per acre than land located
in the district which was a few years
ago referred to as the Great American
desert.
'"The per capita of state money. as
shown by the last bank commissioner
report was never so large.
"Our wheat crop never brought so
much money as it did last year.
Were we ever in better shape to
start fair?''
optimistic regarding the state fair pro-
position until learned recently of the
action and feeling of the members of
the committee on ways and means at
the legislature and L must confess that
things do not look as bright to me as
they did a few days ago. Topeka and
Wichita have been working hand in
hand for an appropriation for a state
fair. the two cities appreciating the
value of such an institution to the
state.
The question of location has not
been mentioned and some time ago
Hutchinson announced that it would
go 1t alone and try for separate state
fair bill and / do not feel that this has
hurt our chances of yet securing an
appropriation We are to have a hear
ing before the ways and means com
mittees of the legislature Thursday ev-
ening and we must make our best
showing at that time if we hope to
succeed in getting the bill passed.
We are in shape to offer Kansas a
bargain if it will but make this appro-
priation for a state fair and one which
will pay large interest on the invest
ment. Wherever the fair is located
certain requirements must be fulfilled
which means that the state will receive
property and subscriptions worth hun
dreds of thousands of dollars
Mr. Crosby was followed by Mr.. 7. A.
Borman of the Continental Creamery
and Marco Morrow who confined their
talks strictly to the state fair project
The next meeting of the Advertising
club will be held in the new CONNER
ciaI club rooms, that is if they are in
shape to accommodate the members at

NEW PEST In KANSAS.
The Brown Tail Moth Is Liable to In
wade the state.

Unless rigid precautions are taken
the brown-taiI moth will have to be
reckoned with in Kansas
MANY New Englanders now living in
the west are familiar with the havoc
played by the caterpillars of this in
sect among forest. shade and fruit
trees in the eastern states These
caterpiIIars appear in large mum bers
and strip the trees of their leaves.
The trees cannot live without foliage
throughout the summer. and SO they
die at once
The brown-tail moth came from
Europe into New England about
fifteen years ago and has spread
area and threatens to extend still fur
fher. In the infested district thou
sands of fruit and shade trees have
been killed by this pest. and in the
woods one can easily find blocks of
from one to fifty acres in which al
most every tree is dead.
The chief of the bureau of
horticulture of the state of New York
recently advised the Kansas author
itfes that about rs nests of the brown
tail moth had been found on apple
pear and cherry seedlings and ounce
stock just received from France. The
nests found contain living caterpilIars
in the usual winter form The in
tested stock so far examined was
hacked in or near Anglers, France
Hundreds of boxes. he says, are now
arriving in the United States.
The Kansas authorities at once sent
out letters of inquiry TO all importers
of trees. fruits. plants and vines
within the state, asking that theiI
shipments be not opened until ex-

In connection with the above and

it seems rather strange that the pub

interest in the game, does not patron

more substantial manner, than what,
to our regret, has been the case up

most deplorable fact) another set, OF
likewise same faces on the outside

it seems they should also possess
a sufficient stock of willingness to

small change in the shape of admis.
sion fees.
At the rate at which the boys
have been ~patronized up to this time,
the day is looming up in the very
near future when the national game,
here, will die from an abundant want
of material assistance. Therefore,
gentlemen! do not let that fence
keep you out; it is no deathline; it
viii take but a paltry few shekels to
land you in the grand stand, where
you will feel much more comfortable
and pleased, while the boys will feel
much more satisfied.

RAGING WESTERN
BLIZZARD HEADED
TOWARD NEWARK
Predicted that SnOwstOrm Will
Strike This City
Tonight.

A great snowstorm, which has Grip
pied the entire West from the Canadian
border to the Gulf of Mexico, is sweep
ing toward the Atlantic and had the
high wind of yesterday held out a lit
tie, longer it would have been here to-
day. But, the wind dying down, it may
be switched off.
Anyway, there will be either snow or
rain tonight-probably snow. The ba-
rometer on top of the High School
building was going down at a rapid
pace this afternoon, and professor
Weiner saw nothing but a storm to-
night. Besides that, there is to be a
decided drop in the temperature to-
morrow.
But Newark is not to have the heavy
blizzard which has broken down most
of the telegraph wires connecting Chi
cago with the West, and which has
blockaded street-car traffic as far east
as Detroit and stalled many Western
railroad trains.
However. Professor Weiner's instru-
ments foresee much snow in the clouds
which spread over New Jersey today,
and to the best of his knowledge and
belief the snow-which might be rain
is due to start falling tonight.

ENGLISH JOCKEY
IS ARRESTED HERE
As P~ANHANOLER
VIM. MilIer's Moving Tale of
Misfortune Secures His Free
dom-Has Appeared Before.

William Miller, claiming TO be the
English jockey OF that maine, WAS al
raigned in the Fourth Precinct Police
Court today on a charge o~f~begginB.
Policeman K~romenbein was resting in
his home in Morris avenue last night
when he was called TO the door by Mil
Ter, who said that he was shy just
seventeen cents of having enough
money for RAILROAD fare to Boston,
where he had friends. He asked the
officer to give up the needed seventeen
cents. Kromenbein arrested him and
took him to the station.
In court Miller said that while riding
as an English jockey he saved $14, OO0,
which lie sent to his parents in Chelsea,
Mass. They invested it in property. all
of which was destroyed in the great
Chelsea confiagration of April l. last.
He came to America right after that.
he said, and came to Newark a few
days ago to o up a couple of English
Jockeys who he believed he would find
here. Failing to find them he went
broke n started to beg enough money
to get back to Boston.
Judge Herr, after asking him if Eng
