NOT QUITE SO HOT.
But Weather Man UnfeelingIy Says 1t
Will Be Warmer.

The weather today is one degree
cooler than yesterday. Can you feel
it? The forecast is for warmer but
unsettled weather. Rain has fallen in
the southeastern counties of the state
but again none is predicted to fall on
Topeka
The dryer it gets the hotter ii seems.
Crops need m Oisture and just as aside
bet the Fourth of July cannonading
may bring it. The circus in town to-
day was not of a caliber sufficient to
bring down rain, but the Fourth is a
regular holiday.
The Kansas breezes. misnomer for
windstorms, are gentler today and
may be responsible for the seemingly
hotter impression. The wind is max
ing but six miles today from the east.

the hotel porch.

"Mr. Woodman,' he said, ard his

MILLIONS IN TOYS.

The money expended for toys In
America every year reaches a very
large figure. The toys which are made
IN Germany alone cost us to something
like s6.O0o,ooo the year. Consul
Nicholas Int, of Nuremberg, has late
ly investigated the subject and report
cd to the Bureau of Manufactures.
For the first nine months OF this
year the declared value of the toys
shipped from Nuremberg to the United
States was S1.S54,S1o. This is s24G.1sG
more than the shipments for the same
period last year, and is only S5o,o5S
less than the shipments for the Whole
year of 1909. Toy exports to this coun-
try for the present quarter will prob
ably amount to s350,oO0. Tho total
for 1910 will he about s2.200,0o0, an
increase Of more than Is per cent. over
1910.
Unfortunately for those OF us who
have to buy these things at Christmas
tide. duty of So per cent. Is levied on
these toys when they reach America.
The total duty amounts to about $780,
600. Without considering freight,
these trlnkets cost tho American Inn
porter about 100000 the year. 1t is
said that the importers and dealers
consider 100 per cent. small figure
10 add for freight charges. profits Of
wholesalers and profits of retailers. In
other words, the toys bought in Nu-
remberg alone this year for the en-
joyment OF the boys and girls of the
United States will cost the givers
about s6,0ooooo.
What a happy land this would be
for children If that tariff on toys were
removed and what a blessing 1t would
be for those who have to buy these
attractive playthings made in the
Fatherland!

10 the Editor of The Times Dispatch:
Slr,---For the present, the question
Of the colonel seems to be settled.
But there are other questions which
are more important which are unset

is to get his fair and just proportion
from the proceeds of his marketing

1t all. Here is Il cast in point which

other. The apples are splendid and
so nicely packed" Yet the report
from Richmond was. 80 many barrels
others better. Now. as the market
goes in these days. I would not have
rated any of those apples as strictly
no. l. But they were sound, good
apples, and have not a doubt that
the Richmond consumers paid IS
cents for every peck of them: that is.
the consumers paid $3.50 for them.

The pension Roll.

To the Editor OF The Times Dispatch:
Slr,-9our recent admirable edi-

dolph fuckers congressional district,
j wrote him suggesting that bill be
passed by Congress requiring that an

newspapers OF each congressional dis
trict the roll or all those who drew
pensions from the United states In that
particular district. adding In my letter
that from the, standpoint Of the real
honor, and that so far from objectng
to such publication 1t ought to be a
qualification. and that. furthermore, 1t
would be the means OF unmaskinE
fraudulent pensions.
Mr., Tucker replied that he thought
the idea q very good one, but 1t was
imposslble to get through such a meas
In 1882 the pension list was $64,296.-
2S054. In 1909 it Is s161.973,7O3.77.
Pensioners In 1882, 2S5, GOT; pensioners
In 1909, 946,194.
The expenditures have been steadily
increasing during a whole generation
Instead OF decreasing. and there mus.
he thousands OF fraudulent pensioners.
The above figures show that the cost
of pensions has increased quite three
fold In the last twenty-elght years.
and the number Of pensioners has In
creased over threefold in the same time.
