PAYS A SECOND fine.
Cook Who Bit Chambermaid Admits
Her Story in Court.

''Thats the way it happened: She
told the TRUTH admitted Arthur
Abrams to Judge Robert Carver in the
court of Topeka when the latter asked
him what he had to say after Miss
Anna Bukowski had finished her ac-
cusation on which was based the
charge of assault.
st guess we were both Sore" said
Abrams. at expect we woke up that
way. Anyway, that's how it happen
ed And he made no defense.
This is the second appearance of
the Observation-Disclosures case in court.
The first time was in police court
where Abrams paid a fine of $40. Not
satisfied with his punishment Miss
Bukowski pursued him into the court
of Topeka where he paid another $40.
She related her story to the court
which summarized is as follows:
She is a chambermaid in the john
son house. Abrams is the cook. The
other morning she brought her plate
to the kitchen to see if there was any
thing for breakfast that might tempt
a faded appetite. When Johnson call
had placed no order for breakfast, she
replied that she wanted to see it be-
for she ordered it, and she proceeded
to see what was in the stove.
st started to look into kettle on
the back of the stove,' said she, land
neck. 1 told him that if he did that
again I'd hit him with the plate car
ried He made a pass at me then, but
that's all 1 remember. When I came
to he was pouring water on my face
and saying something about not mean
ing to hit me SO hard"
Miss Bukowskis face was done up
in a large bandage, indicative that the
pass which the cook had made at
the chambermaid had not been in vain.

Today.
BALL GAME TO START.

Aftornnnn
BALL GAME TO START.

This is Grocers' day. Vinewood park
at an early hour this morning became
the scene of festivities, hundreds of
grocers, wives, and friends having
gone there for the day.
At IL O'Clock teams representing the
j. S. Triton and Dibble grocery COM
panies clashed in a game of baseball,
the latter winning, to 2.
The Dibble team scored three runs
in the first inning. From this time on
there was no scoring until the first of
the seventh, when Fritton team ran in
one tally.
Griffith for the Triton team and
Calkins for the Dibble team each al
lowed 13 safe hits. The trouble with
tie Frittons was that they were not
able to negotiate the bases. time after
time being caught mapping.
Several hundred persons watched the
game, the improvised bleachers being
reserved for the ladies. Along the
sideline was a team of girls. who with
megaphones were roofing for the DID
BILE bunch.
At / o'clock picnic lunch was
served. This was followed by various
contests The race for fat men pro-
voked a deal of mirth. as did a handi-
cap race between young men ana wo-
men.
The baby show was one of the chief
attractions of the afternoon. Infants
were on hand in large numbers.
The drill by fifty school. girls OF
Parkdale, trained by Miss Lulu Nc
Kee, was one of the pleasing features
of the program. AS the various
events were being pulled off, the
knights and Ladies of Security band
played rag time.
Aside from the regular schedule. OF
events, there was much to arnuse the
hundreds of picnickers Boating on
the now muddy water of the lagoon
was popular.
The little tots seemed to be hav-
ing the time of their lives. While
the sports were being held they were
having a lark all by themselves,
playing ring around the rosie, drop
the handkerchief and other games.
There were not many gray heads to
be seen, but the "old boys" apparent
ly were enjoying the occasion as much
as the youngsters.
A throng of townspeople is expected
to be present tonight to hear the band
music and see the drill which will be
given by the women's teams of the
knights and Ladies of Security lodge.

SEARCH PROBLEM"
 IS ON IN EARNEST AFTER THE OVERDUE NAVY
 TUG NINA. Vessels from Many Points Pushing
 Into Stormy Sea.

Washington, Feb. 12.-Somewhere off the Atlantic coast between Norfolk and Boston, the little naval tug Nina with thirty-two men on board, is Mallowing in great pillows with broken machinery, awaiting the ar rival of one of eight government yes sels now speeding to her supposed location.
 As bad as it is the prospect that the vessels will reach her is the best hope of officials at the navy department tonight. The alternative is that the Nina is at the bottom of the sea with bare chance that the crew has been rescued.
 Last Sunday the Nina steamed out of Hampton Roads for Boston. Be- for the day was far advanced stiff northwest winds sprang up, making what the sailors call nasty sea-"
 Under ordinary conditions the tug should have reached Boston on Tues day, but it was only yesterday that the naval officials here began to feel serious apprehension for her safety. As no word of arrival reached the department today. an immediate search was ordered.
 From Norfolk went the swift. scout cruiser Salem and the battleship Louisiana These vessels were in- structed to cruise as far as Cape May along the coast.
 From New York the navy yard col Her Culgoa started on a cruise It will be followed soon by the tugs Apache and Pontiac. The gunboat Castine and the collier Caesar left the Boston navy yard to join in the search. Then the revenue cutter ser vice went to the assistance of the navy and orders were flashed to the cutters Acushnet and Gresham at Boston and New London to take part.
 The problem is similar to what IS known as the search problem" in naval strategy The ocean is divided into squares. one number being given to each ship. Naval officers~believe that the Nina broke shaft or drop ped, a propeller or was blown off shore by the northwest gale.

MORE POISON
 IN ST0MACHS Of Late Heirs To the Es-
 tate Of Col. sWope ALWAYS HYOE'S CAPSULES
Preceded Convulsions With Which the Victims Were Seized Statement of At torney Paxton in Sander Suit Deposition

Kansas City. Feb. 12.-That poison had been found in the contents of the stomach of Miss Margaret H. Swope. that Chrisman Swope went into con vulsions. according to Miss Houlihan. his nurse. few minutes after she had given him a capsule at the direc- ton of Dr. B. C. Hyde. were two startling statements made under oath by John G. Paxton. executor of the Swope estate. today.
 These new and important features in the Swope mystery were revealed by Mir Paxton only after he had been threatened with commitment if he re- fused to answer questions asked him by Frank P. Walsh Dr. Hyde's attor- ney MT Paxton was giving his depo- sition in the slandey suit for s1o0,00o brought against him by Dr. Hyde.
 Miss Swope was a niece of the late Col Thomas H. Swope. On December 1 she was stricken with typhoid fever and Dr. Hyde cared for her. Poison was found in marked quantities in the contents of Miss Swope's stomach by Dr. Victor Vaughn" said Mir. Paxton
 Attorney Walsh eagerly demanded of the witness: Did any one tell you of any medicine that pr. Hyde gave Chrisman Swope?"
 T do not remember the exact words" answered Mir. Paxton, but had given her a capsule to give to Chrisman Swope. She gave it to him and a few minutes later he went into convuisions."
 The story of the stormy scene in the Swope homestead on Dec. IS, when the nurses threatened to leave if Dr. Hyde was not dismissed and another physician obtained to care for the i'll members of the family, was told by Mir Paxton. He told of the vague suspicious of the nurses which even tually led up tn the open break be- tween them and Mrs Logan c. SwOpe.
 It appeared that Miss Houlihan was the leader of the insurrection. Just before leaving she turned to Mrs Swope. according to Mir. Paxton. and said: People are being murdered in this house.
 The departure of pr. Hyde and his wife from the home followed amid a fearful scene. Accusations were made regarding the physician. His wife. in the house of her mother. stood firmly by him as he was turned away from her parental doors.
 Much time was passed in question: ing Mir. Paxton regarding a letter he wrote to Stewart s. Fleming. one of the Swope heirs. telling him of the mystery If was upon this letter that Dr. Hyde brought suit.
 Whom did you mean when you said in this letter that the murderer of Col. Swope should be brought to jus tice?' he was asked.
 'I meant pr. Hyde said Mir. Pax ton.

 There had been a rumor that q demand had been made for the res ignation of State Chairman Wood ruff. MT. Woodruff asked about this, said: We talked about nothing but the Aids case.

The accident was mere whim of the big S-cylinder machine. and was interesting as emphasizing the fact that there is always something pos sible to happen to an aeroplane in the present stage of its development. and
 when least expected, and it will gen.

Hamilton had the machine while trying out the engine previous to the first event of the af- ternoon. The prcpellers were whiriing around so fast that one could scarcely sec them while a dozen men were holding the big device from moving up the track like an automobile. Sud- denly something popped like a burst ing tire and one end of the machine settled three or four inches toward the ground. The engine was stopped in moment. when it was seen that one of the propeller blades had> been splintered and a strip two or three feet long and an inch thick or more at one
