cleaning has had its effect. The coun-
try banks show little change in their
deposits from year ago. but they are
making every effort to collect loans
and put their institutions on a strong
er and firmer basis.
81 am pleased to note that our Kan
sas state banks are inquiring of their
customers more carefully than formerly
as to what purpose they are going 20
use the money asked for when they
apply for loan. and are not loaning
the funds to borrowers who are taking
long chances with a probability of los
ing the money borrowed of the bank
There is more or less complaint that
the large per cent of the borrowers
are asking the banks to renew and not
paying their notes on due dates. In
terest rates continue strong, both for
time and call money, over the entire
country.
Generally speaking, the state banks
of Kansas are in very good shape to
meet any situation that may arise"

HOW BISPHkM SCORED.
Concert Kind That Really Brings
Music to Public, Says Writer.

The David Bispham concert at the
high school auditorium last night was
the kind that really brings music to
the people-that is, to the laity, the
unprofessional music lovers. The sing
er came close to his audience. He was
not gushing or patronizing, but it was
as though he was in a room with his
friends. He began by explaining his
program, which consisted of some old
songs, ballads and modern songs and
operate excerpts.
Every song was in English, which is
certainly a startling departure from
the methods of other concert singers.
In justification of his choice Mr.. Bis
pham quoted what st. Paul says OF
the abuse of the gift of tongues add
ing, What is the use of man sing
ing what he only half understands to
people who understand not at ALL
The applause that greeted his re-
marks showed that his decision to sing
In English was more than acceptable
to his audience; for say what you will,
We all secretly prefer to understand
what we pay our money to hear. Mr..
Bispham is no longer young, and his
voice doubtless has lost much of the
power that once made him the great
est baritone singer of the Metropoli-
tan Opera company, but the popular
ity that depends upon his dramatic
ability, artistic conceptions, his per-
sonality, and his musical intelligence
need not yet be on the wane.
One OF the old songs was a Jacobite
drinking song of the time of King
James, Down Among the Dead Men"
and as the singer explained, 1.-THE dead
men does not refer to corpses, but the
empty bottles under the table along In
the wee small hours" The ballads
included three numbers by the Ger
man composer, Loewe. Mr.. Bispham
has arranged the three into kind or
song sonata of the three parts-the
romantic, the tragic and the comic.
The rendition of the second, Scotch
ballad, Edward" was a stirring bit
of work, with tragic element fifty en-
phasized. The program included two
negro melodies, 1.-THE Old Boatman'
and Banjo Song" words by Weeden
and music by Mrs. Freer and Sidney
Homer. Mr.. Bispham's opinion is that
the negro melodies have character
of their own which forms the basis for
a new kind OF music that is capable OF
artistic development.
1.-THE Banjo Song was the most
pleasing number he sang. and the au-
was given graciously. 1.-THE Song OF
the Flint was a selection from The
Cave Man" an opera written by
Charles Field, a nephew of Eugene
Field for the Bohemian club, which
gives an operate performance every
wear at their estate in California. The
music is by Mccoy, also a member OF
the club Mr.. Bispham took the part
of the cave man in the opera, and the
selection was one of the songs written
for his part.
Bv request, Mr. Bispfam sang an
extra number, Kipling's poem. "Dannle
Deever," and to hear 1t was to under
stand why the request was made Tne
last number was recitation TO music
of I,ongfeilow's poem, liking Robert of
Sicily.'' Mr. Bispham was assisted by
Mr.. Harry Gilbert. pianist. whose work
was entirely SatiSfactory.-B. II.

GOES TO POOR FARM.
Anna CurIiss Has Kept Police and
Humane Officers Busy.

Anna Curliss of APO East Say well
street, a depraved woman who has
been the victim of the taunts of North
Topeka boys for years and is known 20
be forcibly taken to the county poor
farm tonight by Poor Commissioner
Bacon and Kilmaurs King of the Fos-
ter Humane society.
Every known society for the friend
less or the poor in the city has ex-
hausted its patience in caring for the
woman. Crippled with disease, she can
not help herself but because of that
disease it is impossible to find anyone
who will take care of her. G. N. Bacon,
the poor commissioner, has furnished
the woman coal and provisions.
The Christian Scientists have at
tempted to help her because of her re-
fusal to see doctor. They had a tele-
phone installed for her so she
could call them or the Provident
association for assistance. She abused
the phone by calling the mayor,
Rev. Chas. NJ. Sheldon, the city com
missioners, attorneys and judges. She
always told a pitiful story of poverty
which was not untrue. However, she
was being taken care Of as well as
could be.
Her disposition was unruly She stole
the milk bottles which were delivered
to her free through the poor commits
sioner. She refused to return the bot
ties and sold them.
Her home is a three roomed howell so
filthy as to almost be unapproachabIe.
The doors between the rooms are
marred with knife and axe, as when
her mother, Mrs. Mary Bishop, lived
with her there was constant war.
Mrs. Bishop is now in the Topeka in
sane hospital but she is owner of the
property and that can not be utilized
in the care of the daughter.
While Mrs. Bishop owns the place.
and her daughter, Anna Curlfss, lives
In it much married daughter of
Anna. Mrs. Jennie Jackson, paws the
taxes on 1t. It Is suspected that Anna
Curliss has money In bank some
where. She has been known to give
checks for drugs to messengers.

GOES TO THE JURY.
Case of vending, Charged With Muir.
der, Nearing the End.

Louisville, Dec. 3.--When the trial of
Joseph vending, charged with the
murder of S-year-old Alma Kellner was
resumed today, it seemed probable the
case would be given to the jury late
this afternoon. the day being given
over to arguments of four attorneys,
two on each side.
The instructions of the court as read
to the jury were brief and colorless, be-
ing confined to the definition of the le-
gal meaning of the words malice
aforethought,' "wilful," etc.
The instructions covered all the de-
grees of homicide from accident and self
defense to Wilful murder.

Til Til Esff1Ms.

Scenically satisfying and having as
one of its chief recommendations a
cast that even down into the minor
parts acted consistently and well, The
Man Between" with Vaughan CHASER
and Miss Fay Courteney in the lead
ing roles, pleased small audience at
the Grand last night, when given as
the first of three performance pre-
sentation.
Not only is 1.-The Man Between" a
play dealing in the labor question
from a strong dramatic standpoint,
but 1t is one that has a particular ap-
peal from the pathos and sentiment it
shows. Practically every phase of
labor is touched upon in the short
time that a theater presentation al
the points are bought clearly to the
auditor.
From a scenic standpoint the bill
compares favorably to 1.-The Fourth
Estate" which has been heralded the
country over as the greatest play of
the day when consideration is taken
Of scenic work and the detail which
runs through the bill at its different
angles. Not only that, but Manager
Roy Crawford has proven his state
ment that it is possible to present in
Topeka at dollar prices, shows that
usually are seen at $3.50 prices.
Vaughan Chaser was seen here last
in 1.-THE Prisoner of Zenda," also he
has been with Mrs. Fiske and Mrs.
Patrick Campbell. Though not so
we'll known in the west he stands
recognized in the east as an actor of
merit and he sustains his reputation
in 1.-The Man Between"
Especially strong in other roles
were Harrison Stedman as Nathaniel
Van Nest, a capitalist; Martin Wood
worth, as Sevick, a Bohemian laborer;
James Hester as Buckheim, walk
ing delegate; Richard Huffman as
Victor Lazinski, an anarchist and
Frederick Kerby as Kenneth Stuyves-
ant. The women were not so strong
in comparison. nevertheless, they
proved satisfying.
