WICHITA CHIEF QUITS.
ReSentS Attack On the Police and Gives
City His Resignation.

Wichita, Kan, Aug. 9.-Chief of
Police Frank s. Burt has handed his
resignation to the city commission He
retires September 1.
Chief Burt's resignation comes as
the result of an attack made on the
police department alleging that the
red light district is being given pro-
lection and that certain facts relative
to the killings of a laborer, Frank
Smith, in the tenderloin district June
Is had been suppressed. The officials
announced that the laborer had died
of drinking too much bad whisky. In
vestigation showed that heshad been
slugged and that the police had to
hide features in order to protect the
city administration.
Chief Burt says that he is being
made a catspaw in order to prevent
contempt proceedings by the Kansas
supreme court relative to the city being
restrained from collecting fines. A new
chief has not been chosen.
Police Judge Jesse d. Wall and Sewer
Inspector Z. z. Fitzpatrick resigne af-
ter having been informed by the city
commission that they would be re-
queSted to do so.
Judge Wall has been nominated by
the Republicans as a candidate for pro-
bate judge of Sedgwick county, and In
spector Fitzpatrick secured the Repub-
lican nomination for sheriff. The com
mission did not think the two officials
could give their positions the REQUIRED
amount of time and conduct a. county
campaign besides.
Judge Wall is a law partner of ex-
Governor w. e. Stanley.

DUKE TO VISIT HERE.
Man Whose Name Has Been Linked
With Miss EIIxins' Coming.

Washington, Aug. 9.-The Duke of
the Abruzzi will make another visit to
Washington and the date, according to
advices received by the members of
the italian embassy. is set for some
time in November. He will not come
incognito and, according to the data
on file in the ministry of marine at
Rome. the reason of his visit is due
to lectures already promised about
his highness' ascent of the Himalayan
mountains
The duke is now under the jurisdie-
ton of the minister of marine. he be-
ing in charge of the naval arsenal at
Venice. 1t was his duties as director
of the arsenal that prevented his COM
ing last spring, as the embassy had
been. notified to expect.
The leave of absence will be fore
mally set for a period of four weeks
Under ordinary circumstances this
would. permit his stay in the United
States one week. AS he has accepted
engagements in New York, Boston and
Philadelphia and the capital. it is not
considered likely that he will remain
in this city more than three DAYS.
Rumor again has it that the Duke
of the Abruzzi and Miss Katherine
Elkins, daughter. of the senator from
West Virginia, may wed.

New York. Aug. 9.-James r.
Keene,s Ballot, winner of the Subur-
ban of 1908, and one of the best
horses who has borne the silks of
James r. Keene in many a year, is on
the shelf for this season at least.
Ballot came out of the Saratoga
handicap in which he was beaten by
Olambala last Thursday, with an abra-
sion on his near foreleg. He did not
appear to be very sore when he went
to his stall but the injured leg was
badly swelled Friday and his trainer
has not been able to get him on the
track since 1t is accordingly an
nounced that there is no possibility of
an attempt to race him again this
month
This means. that Ballot must pass
the Saratoga cup and the Saratoga as

he was to have met OIamba1a ana Fitz
Herbert, also that the proposed match
at mile and a quarter between him
and Fitz Herbert at Louisville cannot

FAST MAY Be FATAL.
EIgin. ILL.,, Woman, After % Days, Can
Not Take Nourishment.

Elgin, I'LL, Aug. 9.-After fasting
twenty-eight days in an effort to over
come minor digestive troubles, Miss
Ruby Dale, a music teacher, lies at the
point of death. She is unab bic to take
any nourishment.
The perusal of books on health and
hygiene caused Miss Dale to try fast
ing. The theory followed by Miss Dale
is that if any one has any trouble with
the digestive system, the only way to
relieve the trouble is to fast until there
is craving for food. 1t was only after
twenty-five days without eating that
she felt the craving for food.
When she tried to eat it was dis
covered that her stomach, long unac-
customed to food, could not assimilate
what she tried to take into her system.
The only way in which nourishment
can be given is by rubbing oil into her
body. -.

Mosquitoes Change Sermon Hours.

Orange, n. J., Aug. Mosquitoes
have caused a change in the hours of
service at the Methodist church in
South Orange. Up to the present
week the pastor has held services
regularly, both morning and evening,
in the heated months and the services
have been we'll attended. But the
evening services were terribly trying
on account of the pests. Though
screens for doors and windows were
provided, the infliction continued. Last
Sunday the pastor was repeatedly. in
terrupted in his sermon by the unwel--

the fight and announced that until the
mosquito season ended, there would be
no night service.
