TEACHER SCOLDED HIM.
Guy Moses. Maple Hill Boy, Then
Shoots Himself.

Brooding over a reprimand received
at school last week caused Guy Moses,
a 14-year-old boy, to commit suicide at
his home near here this morning. He
was found dead in the kitchen of his
parents home this morning at 10
o'clock He had shot himself.
In the room with the boy was found
an unsigned note which read:
Maybe will do better in the next
world"
Moses trouble at school was trivial
but he was scolded. This occurred early
last week He left school and ran away.
He was persuaded to return to his home
but had not returned to school. His
parents were trying to persuade him to
return to school and settle his trouble
with the teacher and had hoped he
would return to school this morning.
He decided not to go to school today,
however, and when his parents left the
house remained inside. He was found
dead upon their return

JEWISH RABBI SPEAKS.
David LiIxnaitz of Leavenworth Talks
in Topeka.

The Rabbi David Liknaitz of Leav-
enworth spoke at the Unitarian church
Sunday morning. He exchanged pull
pits with the Rev. Jones of this church
for the day. In the afternoon Rabbi
Liknaitz spoke at the state hospital
and in the evening to the Jewish peo-
pie of the city at their hall on West
Sixth avenue.
Rabbi Liknaitz spoke on Saving
Minority" at the church in the morn
ing. He proved to his congregation
that the voice of the people is not al
ways the voice of God and asserted
that it is not always the case that the
majority should rule
He said that it was a lamentable
fact that the truth was sometimes
measured by the majority. 1.-The truth
is the truth whether by the many or
by the few he argued. In speaking
of the majority in the religion of the
world Rabbi Liknaitz said that if we
were to have our religion dictated by
a majority we would all be heathens.
''The numbers are not the criterion
of truth-the voice of the people Is not
the voice of God. The history of CIV
ilization is a history of the minority.

STAMP OUT FAKES.
Employment Agents to Have Attention
of State Labor Department

The state bureau of labor and indus
try will ask the next legislature to
pass law which will govern the oper-
alton of employment agencies in Kan
sas- In the annual report of the bu-
reau which is just being compiled w.
a. L. Johnson. commissioner, says:
The absence of any law governing
or regulating the operation of private
employment agencies has resulted in
the victimizing of a large number of
laboring men both within and without
the state by the Misrepresentation of
facts and illegal and dishonest collec-
ton of agency fees for alleged situa-
tions. This bureau has been impor-
tuned many times during the last year
to intercede or to prosecute certain
fake employn- emit agencies.
1.-The only recourse was for each in
dividual sufferer to institute a civil
suit for damages, which in their usual
penniless condition they were unable
to do. In the city of Topeka one in
stance was noted where nearly two
hundred men surrounded a socalled
employment agency c1amoring for
either situation or a return of a two
dollar fee, which they had paid. In
vestigation developed that the tran
silent employment agent had rented
desk room and after advertising ex-
tensively and receiving his fees from
the misguided men, had suddenly de-
camped."
The department will draft a law
covering the operation of employment
agencies to prevent the practice of
fraud on unsuspecting laborers out of
a Job.
There were only AZ strikes of labor
organizations in Kansas last year, ac-
cording to the annual report of the
department. OF these "a were sue
cessful. The total number of men in
volved was 2,911, members Of 80 or
CARNATIONS and the average loss of
work was SO days each. The men lost
q total wage Of $Ss2,S95.26, an aver
age of $131.53 for each person dur
ing the time the strikes were called.
Most of the strikes were of very short
duration and the men received $73,-
1884 in strike benefits from the la
Dor organizations.
