DYCHE HAS PROBLEMS.
State Game Warden Says He Meets
Many Questions.

State Game and Fish Warden Dyche
has a large stack of letters to answer
each day, and some of them are highly
amusing and others decidedly perplexing
so that it frequently becomes necessary
to consult Attorney General Jackson for
legal advice.

B. P. Williams justice court and the
boys were brought in. The county at
tOrney was not represented and the
young man assaulted could not be pres
ent. The boys were fined 81 each.
When the county attorney heard of
the affair and the seriousness of the in
jury he Immediately got out a warrant
charging assault with intent to kill and
had the boys arrested. They were
bound over on the felony charge to the
district court.
The whole trouble with the papers
has been because of the serious nature
of the wound of Lyman Streeter. He
was confined to his bed four days while
the doctors worked to save his eye
sight. His nose was broken and one
eye badly beaten with a slungshot, he
says. Streeter's story of the assault is
that as he walked along with the girl,
Apologize and Olney appeared. Olney
grabbed him about the body and arms
and Applegate, asking what he was do
ing in that part of town, struck him
with the slungshot, knocking him down.
Then they left him, he says, taking the
girl with them.
Either of the defendants is much
larger than Streeter who is but Is years
old. Both have been arraigned for
hearing in the court of Topeka on jan
uary %.

ADDS TO
EQUIPMENT
Dougherty's Business College
Buys Thirty New
Typewriters.

Each student at Dougherty's Business
college is provided with typewriter for
his own personal, exclusive use all day,
and all evening, too, if he wishes. This
is quite a unique plan among business
colleges, and it gives the student an
opportunity for thorough training in
typewriting, which, Of course, is very
important part Of the stenographer's
work.
Mr.. Dougherty's original methods of
teaching typewriting are attracting at
tention all over the country, and his
recent address at the National Conven-
ton of Shorthand Teachers at Louis
vile. KY, on Touch Typewriting,'' was
an eye-opener to commercial college
people, and embodies the best and
latest in this department Of business
education.
The thirty new typewriters just
bought by the school from the Under
wood Typewriter Company are the
newest in typewriter manufacture. This
shows how the Dougherty school is
keeping its equipment, as well as its
methods, at the very highest standard,
both in quantity and quality.

JACK KING DISMISSED.
Former Topeka Policeman Fighting to
Retain Captaincy at Seattle.

Seattle, Wash. Jan. 13.-Because he
declined to be reduced to the rank of
a sergeant, Captain of Police John
King a former member of the police
department at Topeka, Kan, has been
suspended from the Seattle police de-
partment by Chief of Police Irving
Ward. The reason given for, the reduc-
ton in a written report to the civil
service commission by Chief Ward is
that no funds are provided for the pay
ment of more than four captains.
According to ordinance No. 22353
passed by the city council November
8, and signed by Mayor John F. Mil
Ter November 9, recognizing the po-
lice department. five captains are pro-
vided for. Captain King turned in all
his equipment, including his star. He
has taken an appeal in the reduction
case, and will appeal to the civil service
commission from the order of suspen-
sion.
Jack King, of the local police depart
ment, who held the title of captain
during the exposition period but who,
with the reduction of the force to its
regular basis, has been again put in
the ranks. contends that Chief Irving
Ward has no authority for such action
and that he must be permitted to re-
tain his captaincy. King has prepar-
ed a statement in support of his claim
to right to continue to wear shoulder
straps, which embodies provisions of
the municipal code.
1.-The police department allowance for
1910 provides for only four captains.
When JolA King refused to perform
duty under the rank of sergeant could
not do otherwise than dismiss him. He
is not suspended. but dismissed" says
Chief of Police Irving Ward in discuss
ing the dismissal of Capt. King.
The city council passed special
ordinance providing for Sc patrolmen,
three sergeants and one captain, to
perform extra duty during the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition period, to be-
gin services May 25 and to be dropped
October 25," continued Chief Ward.
after tits ordinance a second one was
passed providing for the retention of
the extra men until January 1, 1910.
king originally was placed on this
list with rank as sergeant. Sergeant
L. ]. Stewart was appointed temporary
captain. When Capt. w. F. LaubscheT
died last summer Stewards appoint
ment as captain was made regular to
fill the vacancy. King was appointed
temporary captain to fill. Stewards

pointment as temporary.

of the best men, IN the department.
regret that this question arose. had
no recourse, however. There is no pro-
vision for the pay of more than -four
captains. Should the courts hold that
he is legally a police captain, with g
regular appointment. I do not know
where the funds for his salary will come
from.
ALSO, such a decision would be excel
lent grounds for the other men drop

FIND OUT
The Kind of Food That win Keep
You Well.

The true way is to find out what is
best to eat and drink, and then culti
vate a taste for those things instead
of poisoning ourselves with improper,
indigestible food, etc.
A conservative Mass. woman writes:
''I have used Grape-Nuts years
for the young and for the aged; in
sickness and in health; at first follow
ing directions carefully, later in a va
riety of ways as my taste and judg-
ment suggested.
But its most special, personal ben
eft has been as a substitute for meat,
and served dry with cream when
rheumatic troubles made it important
for me to change diet.
Served in this way with the addi-
ton of cup of hot Postum and a
little fruit it has been used at my
morning meal for six months, during
which time my health has much i'm
proved, nerves have grown steadier,
and a gradual decrease in my excess
sive weight adds greatly to my COM
fort" Read the little book, 1.-The Road

Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and fun of human
interest.

Saturday.

Preparations for the big trial of
the kidnapers are seen on all sides.

try and Tillotson, who have applied
for a change of venue, have filed
stacks of affidavits and copies of
newspapers showing the alleged feel
ing against their clients. 1t is known

list of affidavits to show that there is
not feeling in the county which would
hinder a fair and impartial trial.
Fourteen personal affidavits, besides
publishers -5ffidavits, regarding their
papers are filed now by the defend
ants counsel. Quite a number of
these are from newspaper men who
have had great opportunity to feel the
public pulse. The list now filed in
cludes: A. T. Waggoner, NJ. L. Ter

people of the county to preclude a fair
trial here.

FREIGHT WRECK
TIES UP TRAFFIC
ON LACKAWANNA
Spreading Rails Cause Accident
ON Harrison End of Passaic
River Bridge.

Spreading rails on the Harrison end
of the lower deck of the Lackawanna
Railroad draw bridge over the Pas
sale river was responsible for Il ca-
boose, which was attached to O. freign1
train. leaving the rails early this
morning, and incidentally with the
crew OF the train, almost dropping into
the river. A freight car, which was
in front of the caboose. was reduced
practically to splinters and the two
vehicles were blocked from dropping
into the stream by the girders that
run along the side of the span.
The freight train drawn by engine
No. 40 had come up from the Harrison
meadows on the freight track. When
the bridge was reached all of the cars
went safely over the approach until
tho caboose arrived. There was a
sudden grinding and the occupants of
the little car realized that it had left
the rails.
There was u mad rush for the door.
and the crew got out just as the ca
boose rammed the freight car ahead,
forcing 1t to leave the rails. The two
vehicles finally landed against the grid
ers. Efforts to release them failed. The
caboose was badly smashed and the
front and side was tori out of the
freight car.
After trying for a long time to get
the vehicles back on the tracks, 1t was
decided to send for the wrecking crew
The wrecker arrived at the bridge at S
O'clock, and after two hours hard
work managed to get the cars back on
the rails. Both vehicles were taken to
Hoboken for repairs. The freight car
is owned by the Lackawanna railroad
and is No. 37169.
The engineer in, charge of the bridge
was badly frightened when the bridge
began to sway. When, after a few
hours. n boat came along and he
wanted to open the draw he found that
1t could not be budged. The boat, the
property of the Standard Oil Company.
and bound north on the river, was be-
ing towed by one Of the Standard OIL
Company's tugs.
