Topeka has experienced with her re-
cent aviation meeting it would be an
imposition to ask for purse from this
end of the line.
"I will make the start from Topeka
because want to favor the city which
has been SO hospitable and kind to me
under the most trying conditions. I
like Topeka and its people and I want
as many of them as possible to be
present to see the start which I hope

PAGE WILL BUILD.
North Topeka Miller Buys West
Side Property.
Six Acres on the West Sixth
Avenue Road.
A HANDSOME HOME.
Colonial House Which Will
Cost About $25, 900.
Will Be One of Most Beautiful
Places in City.
HANDSOME HOME.

Thomas Page, president of the Page
Milling company, has purchased six
acres Of the ole Wilson and MacDon
aid tracts at tha west end of West
Sixth avenue. This is at the high point
of Topeka and commands an excellent
view of the city.
Mr.. Page will erect on the land a
mansion to cost about $25.O00. 1t will
be of buff brick, with slate roof. 1t
will be two stories and comprise Is
rooms, including large conservatory.
The residence will be entirely mod
ern. The Pages say they expect to
occupy it by December. Plans are
now being drawn for the house.
The architecture of the dwelling will
be somewhat after the old colonial
style, with a wide veranea extending
on the front and west side and termi-
mating at the conservatory. The house,
without the veranda, will be So feet
by AZ feet.
One of the features of the interior
will be the reception hall at the en-
trance, which will extend to the cell
ing of the second story, forming an
interior balcony on the second floor.
From the reception room to the
kitchen will extend a wide hall.
At the left side of the hall as you
enter will be a parlor. divided by fold
ing doors from another room or rear
parlor. The latter apartment will open
on the conservatory.
On the right of the hall, the first
room you enter will be the sitting
room. This adjoins an ample dining
room. In the rooms mentioned will
be fireplaces-five in all.
The rear of the first floor will be
occupied with a kitchen.
The upstairs will be divided into
guest rooms and sleeping chambers
and servants apartments.
These plans were formulated by Mrs.
Page and her son, David, and when
their ideas for the dwelling have been
carried out their home will be one of
the best and most comfortable in To-
peka. F. C. Squires is making the
architectural drawings.
The intention is that the house shall
front the east. -hus giving a good
view of the city from the veranda. or
from the east upstairs rooms.
The grounds will likely be provided
with stables and a garage. The yard
will be ornamented with shrubbery,
flower gardens and will be made into
one of the most beautiful places in
Topeka.
The Page home will be just across
Sixth avenue from the Geo. H. Whit
comb residence and near the house of
Chief Justice Johnston.

that in such counties as Atchison and
Leavenworth where Leland received
such a heavy vote two years ago that
the governor would get cool reception
to say the least. But it was not so.
The people turned out in large num-
bers and gave the governor great
ovation. The governor is claiming
these counties now and firmly believe
that he will carry them I talked with
many people in many eastern towns
last week and found every one but the
politicians lined UP for Stubbs.
I'm the past few politicians con-
trolled the vote in their communities
to large extent. Now the people are
doing their own thinking and voting.
This being so I cannot see for the life
of me where Wagstaff has a chance to
win. The fellows who stand for the
old times and old ways of handling the
state business for personal gain are all
for Wagstaff. They cannot see the
light that blinds.
THE people are for Stubbs because
he is fearless and because they believe
in their hearts that he is sincere and
cannot be dictated to by a lot of poll
to turn down the politicians in the in
terest Of square dealing, and that is
just what Stubs has done. Hence the
bitter enmity ard energy of these same
politicians during this campaign.
The people are awake to the fact
that the lieutenant governor ought to
be in sympathy with the policy of the
governor and I have been assured by
those where we have had meetings that
will get practically the same support
as Governor StubbS."

FLOOD CLAIMS 200.
Heavy Loss of Life and Property in
the Abr Valley.

Cologne. Germany. June Alt is
estimated that 200 persons lost. their
lives in a flood that swept the valley
of the River Abr in the Eifel region.
Eighty-seven bodies had been recov-
cred today. These were found along
the river banks.
A report received here says that so
lives were lost at the village of SchuIt
when a bridge which was crowded with
persons watching the turbulent waters
was carried away. Throughout the Abr
valley only one bridge is left stand
ing.
The floods were caused by a heavy
rain that had continued for several
days, causing the River Abr to break
it's bounds. Sunday night there was a
cloudburst and the waters choked the
valley, drowning every living creature
in their path and causing immense
property damage.
Two barracks in which Italian and
Croatian laborers were housed were
swept away and their occupants, who
were in their beds, were drowned The
railway was washed out and several
villages were destroyed. Lightning.
which accompanied the rains, did much
damage. Yesterday the flood subsided.
There is much distress among the
r-asants of the valley who have sur
yived. as most of them have lost their

ONE MORE ARREST.
Schultz Murder May Be Near Solu-
ton.

Leavenworth. Kan. June 14-Dean
Erhart, who was arrested at Easton,
near here, last night in connection
with the murder of Mrs Katherine
Schultz, the wealthy widow, whose body
was found in her home here last week,
was taken before the county attorney
here today and subjected to an exani-
nation.
The officers refuse to divu1ge the in
formation that caused them to arrest
Erhart. 1t is known that Erhart was
here the night Mrs. Schultz was kill
ed and that he had at one time made
an unsuccessful attempt to borrow
money from her.
Erhart is farmer 40 years old and
the husband of a niece of Mrs. Schultz.
After Erhart's examination today it
was intimated by the officers that an
other arrest would be made shortly
Erhart, in accounting for his presence
in Leavenworth on the night of the
murder, said that he had come to
town to pay his taxes and to file his
nomination papers for the office of
trustee of his township. He declared
he was anxious to aid the officers in
clearing up the mystery and agreed
to go with them later in the day to
the federal prison that they might
compare his finger prints with those
found on a window pane in the Schultz
home.

BISCUITS TURN PINK.
When Test Is Made I'm the BIeached
Flour Case.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 14.-Miss
Hanna L. Wessling, of the government
food laboratory, Chicago, was the first
witness called to dav in the bleached
flour case being tried in the United
States court here. She brought into
court biscuits of her own baking. With
these she demonstrated effects obtain
ed from both unbleached and bleached
flour after the application of a diluted
solution of the Greiss "re-agent."
Miss Wessling was a teacher of
chemistry in a Cincinnati medical col
lege, before she entered the govern
ment service.
Practical tests for the presence of
nitrous acid in bleached and unbleach-
ed -four were made in the sight of the
jury.
The chemical known as "Griess re-
agent" was applied to the two kinds
of -four by Prof. George Hulett, a
member Of the chemistry department
at Princeton university. He explained
that if a pink reaction was given that
was a sign of the presence Of the acid.
Such a reaction resulted. when the
chemical was applied to the bleached
flour. Unbleached flour did not change
it's color when the chemical came in
contact with it.
might not the yeast used in making
light bread destroy the nitrites?" At
torney Smith asked Prof. Hulett on
crossexamination-
ct suppose such thing would pe
possible replied the witness.
The professor also admitted that
nitrous acid existed in the air
Walter S. Haines of Chicago, who
played a prominent part in the Hyde
murder trial, has arrived. He Will be

HUGHEs-BEDwELL SUIT TRIAL
Question of Damages Over Possession
of Real Estate.

For the second time within a year
the suit of Mrs. Zenia A. Hughes, wife
of Speed Hughes, against Ella M. and
S. A. Bedwell for $3.50 damages is be-
fore the district court. Mrs. Hughes
bought from the Bedwel, a 120-acre
tract for $4,000. which it cost $500
and attorneys fees to extract from the
grasp of William Quayle. a tenant,
when the Bedwells. she alleges, said
the land was unincumbered. Quay1e
by provisions of an earlier lease was
entitled to two years occupancy and
had to be bought off.
Deeds to the land were transferred
Nov. 10, 1906. The defense by Attor-
ney J. J. Schenck is that the lease
and all were shown to Hughes, who
had them examined by lawyer before
the deal was closed and that therefore
they knew what they were doing Oct.
1S, 1909, the suit for damage from
Bedweu conducted by Attorney D. r.
Hite brought a verdict for 1922 for
Mrs. Hughes. In a motion for new
trial Schenck won out and another
jury is at work today.

Weather Is Pleasant.

Today has been one of the best days
this year-warm and pleasant and fine
for fishing. A slow wind blowing at a
rate of ten miles an hour from the
sunny south has kept up the air cir

ideal one for everything and every

The Thermometer reached 81 today.
1t may reach about 83 at the rate it
