NO CAUSE FOR WORRY.
John r.. NTulva1e Says Loan CondI-
tions Are Excellent.

John R. Mulvane president of the
Bank OF Topeka, has written letter
to the Journal of Commerce OF New
York city, in which he says that there
is no cause for alarm over the loan
conditions in Kansas. Mr.. Mulvane
states that the banks of Kansas have
made an eight million decline since
January 1 but on account of the leg1tl-
mate use of the money to harvest the
growing crops and replenishing the cat
f1e herds this decline is natural and is
no ground for financial fear.
''The crop prospects for 1910 are excel
lent" said Mr.. Mulvane. land the prod
ucts of the state, including mines, Oil
and gas, will exceed $500, 900.
THE money situation has already
eased and any c1oseness that may de-
velop this fail will be on account OF
the handling and moving of the crops"

feiting Has Served His Term.

Washington, July 15.-President
Taft has granted pardon to take
effect July IT, the date his term
would expire, to Rev. James r. Kaye.
who is now serving a term of six
months in the Peoria house of correc-
ton for making molds in the simili-
tude of silver coin.
Kaye has filled pulpits in Presby-
terrain churches at Lincoln and
Wheaton, ILL.,, and while at the former
place to increase his Sunday school
attendance he conceived the idea of
offering medals to children. In ex-
perimenting with a view to making
the medals he made plaster molds,
using coins as model. The expert
ment was unsuccessful and the molds
were thrown away. Subsequently they
were found and Mr.. Kaye was arrest
ed for violating the law. He was
twice tried, the first time being sem
fenced to two years. This was re-
duced to six months at a second trial.
It was claimed in Hayes behalf there
was no fraudulent intent involved and
the president in order to re- establish
his citizenship, granted him a pardon.
The president has also COMMITTED
the life sentence of Esias Willie, an
Indian convicted of murder in the In
dian Territory.

Miss Mannerings marital troubles
were cleared January 10, last, when the
court granted her divorce from
James K. Hackett and gave to her the
custody of their 5-year-old daughter.
Miss Mannering and Mr.. Hackett were
membrs of the Lyceum Theater COM
pany when they were married in 1897.
For eighteen months the public did not
know of the marriage. 1t was more
than two years ago that stories OF a
disagreement began to circulate.
Mr.. Wadsworth, it is said, has known
Miss Mannering for several sears, hav-
ing met her socially. Their friends
knew that he admired her and to them
the news of the engagement will not

THIS IS CIRCUS DAY.

another circus day for Topeka--the
enlro one this year. This time the
SeIls-Fioto antitrust show is here

SO the bills say-and you have to be-
1leve the bills until after the show,

Circuses were made for children
mat is, there would be very little do
ing along the circus line unless there
We're the kids at home to tug at the
hand of the folks and pull them
bodily to the show grounds. The Bible
salc something about "a little child
snail lead them"-it applies in an apt
manner when the ''circus comes to
town.
Sells-Floto gave their parade this
afternoon at L o'clock. 1t was sched-
uled originally for II o'clock this
morning and was finally postponed
O'Clock whistles blew the steam caliope
could be heard footing along Harrison
street
From what they had in the parade
the circus this afternoon and evening
VIII appeal to everyone. A string of
elephants two blocks long for those
VINO "dote" on elephants. A big tribe
OF clowns for those who like clowns
ana If a circus of today doesn't
nave a good line of clowns it
are chariot races, too-because the
cnariots were on the street today oc-
cupied by beautiful girls with flowing
roman robes. 1t is safe to say that
the girls will win the races.
1t is so unusual that a circus has a
good looking cast of girls that the
parade this morning took the people of
Topeka off their feet There were some
dandy looking girls-and they rode
right down the street with black stock
1ngs on, too.
A good crowd from the country are in
to see the circus this afternoon and
evening. The towns surrounding To-
peka are also sending their donation
to the circus fund. And here is a
noticeable fact-the farmers came in in
their automobiles. The old Riley poems
about "goin' to town in the wagon are
out of date. The farmer brings in his
family in the automobile.
The Sells-F1oto didn't have very
many Gagged animals in their parade
this morning but the managers said
they didn't want to show everything
they had. Come out to the tents and
we will show you more they said.
From the looks of the big crowds that
are going there this afternoon the peo-
pie have taken the managers at their
word.
The show is tented at the fair
grounds. The usual line of accessories
to the big circus are out there crying
their wares. And the kids are taking
in everything because this is vacation
and they have lots of time to save up
their nickels.
