Race a Fast One.
The race for the Office is going to
bs fast one. The way Judge E. r.
Simon dopes the now untitled candi-
dacy is that since the withdrawal of
Frank H. Foster, the Humphreys sup
porters concede the Foster vote to
himself and want another candidate in
the field to reduce it. But there is
Frank Drenning to be counted on.
Perhaps the liberals do not feel that
either Humphreys or Drenning, if
O1SCteu,. WOU1Q give Cnem satisfaction.
Certainly the liberals, should they
desire more open town. would have
10 control the county attorneys Of
flee. The last cards gotten out by T.
D. Humphreys bore the exhortation:
Continue to keep awake and vote for
T. D. Humphreys" But are the lib
erals so called, and the Billiard keen
awakes' Identical
The unique candidate, Mr. Humph-
Teys, unique because he announces his
C4n6l6aPV 81,
no notices. and circulates no autooio-
graphfes and no resolutions for the rea-
son that he is sore on the press, says
no reporter until today ever spoke to
him about politics but lined him up to
suit themselves, and gives it out that
The organization" is not supporting
him.
No Cigars for Votes
I'm not going out buttonholing peo-
PIE asking them to vote for me and I'm
mot making any promises. Its against
the spirit of the law. If any one will
vote for me that's the vote L want
l don't give cigars for votes,' said
Idr. Humphreys.
1T is understood that the Hodgins-
Lucas -kaczynski crowd is supporting
me. They are not. Why, they won't
speak to me on the street. Neither were
they supportin g Billiard. They voted for
Green, everyone of them"
What Is a Liberal?
With that explanation from the can
didate without a publicity committee
what and who is a liberal? Were the
so-called liberals ever a unit and are
they now cross firing or is the situation
just being juggled about until some
purposeful settlement can be made?
AT any rate the three candidates,
Simon, Dreaming and Humphreys would
like a clear field for the contest but
none of them admit, they feel any votes
slipping as the new track is being clear
ed off and a candidate hunted for.

ONE KILLED; ONE HURT.
Cylinder in Santa Fe Shops ExpIodes
Negro Dies-Jacobs Injured.

While heating out an old cylinder
over a small fire in the Santa Fe
''scrap-yard" in the shops this morn
ing, Robt. Chute, negro laborer,
II years of age, was killed by a ter
rifle explosion of the heating cylinder.
Chute was tearing apart scrap heap
materials in the yard, and had a little
fire near at hand to melt out a num-
Der of the parts. 1t is not know just
what happened next-except a ter
rifle explosion followed and Chute
was knocked senseless to the ground.
A man named Joseph Jacobs, stand
ing near by was also hit but his in
juries are not dangerous. He was
struck in the face.
number of laborers working near
by ran to the scene but Chute was ap-
parently lifeless on the ground. The
piece of iron had crushed the left
side of his face and he died shortly
afterward.
Little is known of Chute. He has
been with the Santa Fe working in
the shops in Topeka for the last IL
years. The foreman of the scrap
yard, who is the only man, who has
been in direct touch with him, is out
of the city and could not be found for
further information today. 1t is
thought however, that he lives in
North Topeka with his wife and
father
The cause of the accident can, not
be determined The cylinder was an
old one and was given to Chute to
break up and place in the scrap heap.
He had placed it in the fire to 'tthaw"
with the intention of breaking it up
later. The next thing that anyone
knew was the explosion which was
deafening and could be heard all over
the shop district.
It is thought that water must have
collected in the cylinder and being in
the fire. steam had been generated
All openings were closed and the ex-
plosion was the result.
The accident happened at o'clock
and Chute died about $50.

CRAZED WITH LIQUOR.
Mark Williams Nearly Kills Daughter
and Terrorizes NeighborhOod.

While intoxicated upon liquor
brought to him by the young man
who had just asked for his daughters
hand in marriage Mark Williams,
colored, living on Indian Creek, near
ly killed his daughter, terrorized the
neighborhood and when arrested was
chopping down his own house with an
ak. He was overcome after a hard
struggle, by four policemen and
brought to Topeka where he was lock-
ed up in the county Jail until today.
Upon his promise to never touch it
again" and the pleading of his wife
he was released at noon today
The young man who asked for Will
liams daughters hand and a friend
secured the liquor and took it to the
home of the bride to be. They too,
took two or three small drinks and
left. Williams imbibed the rest of it
and when next seen by his family was
buckling the harness around the wag-
on. He told them he was getting
ready to go to town. Then he went
to the house and attacking younger
daughter, nearly killed her, dragging
the child about the house by her hair,
beating and kicking her.
At last the girl became insensible
and placing her upon the floor Will
liams announced his intention of re-
viving her with cold water. Pumping
a tubfuI of it out of the we'll he car
ried 1t into the house and poured it
upon the cookstove. Then he pro-
ceeded to wreck the interior or the
house.
Stoves. tables and chairs were brok-
en- up and the old pictures torn from
the walls Everything breakable was
DESTROYED. williams then took the ak
and began chopping the house to
pieces.
Meanwhile the neighborhood had
been aroused. Some one teIephoned
to Topeka for aid and the patrol wag-
on and four officers was sent TO the
-zz-o oF %ha froIIbIe After a fight the
OFFICERS downed Williams and placing
a straight packet upon him brought
him to Topeka. He was lodged in the
county Jail.

DAWSONIN JOINT DEBATE
He Routs a Socialist Orator at Pleas
anton.

1t does not seem to be generally
known, but nevertheless it is an es-
tablished and glorious fact that John
S. Dawson, attorney for the railroad
board, and we'll known over the state
as a Republican orator, met L. F. Full
er of Boston, a Socialist champion, in
joint debate and routed him foot and
dragons. The encounter was staged
in the Pleasanton opera house and
nearly one thousand people marched
into the building on that memorable
night to the music of the Pleasanton
band. District Judge John c. Cannon
Fuller spoke first and devoted one hour
to a discussion of the advantages OF
Socialism. Fuller took the affirmative
on the question, Resolved, That So
cialism offers a more practical and
beneficial plan of government in the
United States than Republicanisn."
Mr.. Dawson had been selected as the
champion of the Republican cause, and
therefore, took the negative side of the
question. The Pleasanton Herald, in it's
description of the debate and comment
on its outcome, says:
''Mr. Fuller did not advance a single
reason to maintain the question. or
his one hour to open the debate he de-
voted 55 minutes abusing the Repub-
licans and referring to cases wherein
no party is responsible. Not in the
least did he show how the people would
be happier and more prosperous. or
how Socialism offered a more practical
or beneficial plan of government. To
those who went to the opera house to
learn the Socialist plan Of government,
Mr.. Fuller's speech was dismal fail
ure His only argument was word
picture of suffering, crime-not a, single
ray of sunshine did he see in our great
and glorious country, nor did he ex-
plain how this misery, crime, suppress
sion of free speech, etc, etc. could be
His speech was a total
failure and a great disappointment to
most of the Socialists.
Hon. John S. Dawson of Hill City, Gra-
ham county, who for one hour and
fifteen minutes peppered Socialism
from stem to stern. He gave his hear
ers something to think about. His talk
was a mastery one. He showed how
over rs Socialist undertakings had fail
ed in the past 100 years-not one to
stand as the beacon light of success.
Mr.. Dawson ridiculed the speech of Mr..
Fuller to such an extent that when the
Socialist speake~ closed with a fifteen
minutes talk he was so bewildered he
did not know what to say. In fact it
was brutal the way the Republican
boy from the sand hills of western
Kansas skinned the Socialist repre-
sentative from Boston. Mass. and
showed up the impossibilities, imprac-
and falsities of Socialism"

TO SIT WITH DOUBLE.
President Taft and Morley Will Enjoy
Ball Game Together.

Pittsburg. Pa, April 25-The president
of the United States may figure in a
double play in the baseball game here
between Chicago and Pittsburg a week
from today-and such a double play as
was never seen in baseball President
Taft is to attend the game, but however
well known are his features and figure,
it is likely that the crowds in. the grand
stand will rub their eyes before they make
sure that they see straight, FOR 1t Is said
to have been arranged that beside the
chief executive shall sit Thomas Morley.
police sergeant of Pittsburg. The latter
is a perfect double of President Taft, in
height weight and features.
Pittsburg friend of the president sew
eral days ago mailed Mr.. Taft a picture
of the police sergeant dressed in his
Prince Albert coat and wearing his hat.
The president was so amazed at the re-
markable likeness of himself that he is
said to have expressed a wish to meet
Morley and have him sit beside him at the
Mr. Morley relates a story of having
been followed through the streets of Phil
sdelphia by a crowd several months ago,
aud that he had to appeal to the police.
He found it necessary, he says, to explain
to many that he was not the president of
the United States-just plain Tom Morley,
police sergeant of Pittsburg.

KILLING FROSTS.
Topeka Escapes While Other Sections
OF State Suffer.

By some special dfspensation, accord
ing to the local weather sharps. Topeka
las again escaped killing frost which
indications pointed to as certain. Thus
st has been with Topeka during the en-
tire cold snap. On only one occasion
has there been frost noticeable and that
did not, far as can be learned now,
DO apPrcciable damage.
Last nights killing frost was general
ever Kansas except in the southeast
and northeast corners. The damage re-
sulting will be difficult to estimate and
no guess can be risked on it today but
the weather man is authority for the
statement that it knocked the tar ont
of things" There is some hope for
fruit in the frost area because the bios
som stage has passed and the fruit is
formed in some cases. Fruit already
termed can withstand more cold than
when it is in the blossom stage.
Brown. Jackson, Atchison, Jefferson,
poniphan and Shawnee cnEn.ies cscap-
ed heaTy frost last night because of the
cloud blanket which covered the earth
before midnight and resulted ir rising
instead of falling temperature as the
night progressed. But west of this ter
ritory the frost was heavy and did much
damage. At Manhattan the mercury
registered 2S degrees, six degrees be-
low the frcst mark. There was a heavy
frost ar Concordia with a minimum
temperature of 50 degrees reported
Dodge City had a killing frost with a
minimum temperature of 30 degrees. The
same report is true in Stafford county
Wichita had heavy frost. Mcpherson
county reports a like condition with the
thermometer at 80 degrees and Usage
City duplicates the Mcpherson report
Even in the lucky northeast counties
which escaped frost last night there
have been damaging frosts so that the
only portion of Kansas thus fortunate,
outside the southeast section of the
state is the lower Kaw valley.
In southeast Kansas there has been
no damaging frost beyond a line run
ming west from Linn, Anderson, Coffey
and Chase counties to Butler. thence
south to the southern border of the
state.
