Handlers.

New York, March 26.-Enrico sCaruso
has paid $4,000 to the Black Hand. He
delivered $1,000 in lump sum and the
other 81, 600 in smaller amounts. The
police now keeping watch on the singer

protect him from harm, but also to
use him as the bait to attract the
brigands to their trap
Detectives have been unable to learn
how Caruso complied with the demand

court, but Mrs. Cole has always main
tanned that she recognized her hus-
bands companion.
The suit was filed here because this
is now the legal residence of Mrs. Cole
No. 2. Following her unexpected mar
riage to Mr.. Cole in Jacksonville. Fla,
on last January z. the couple came
here to live. They resided here until
a month ago when they left for PEN
sacola, Tia, on a visit.
The couple is said to have had a dual
reason for coming here to live. When
Mrs. Cole No. l was granted a divorce
in Chi2ago November 10. 1903, it was
with the provision that neither of the
parties to the case should wed within
two years. Following the marriage Of
Mrs. Hunt and Cole. Mrs. Cole an
Eounced if they returned to Chicago to
reside she would institute suit against
Ter ex-1usband's new wife.
During the time the Coles lived here
they did not mingle in society. They
purchased a handsome residence at
Thirty-eighth street and Gillian Road
and spent the greater part of their time
at home. Neither had many acquaint-
ances here. Their house is closed now
but 1t is understood they return here
within a few weeks to reside during
the summer.
Mrs. Cole No. was granted a di-
vorce from Jarvis Hunt in Wheaton,
ILL.,, where was located their beautiful
farm, last October. The decree was
given on statutory grounds. Mrs. Cole
was granted the custody of her two
en- the farm.
Cole and his first wife were married
January /, 1900. They had five children
who are now with their mother.

REAL SOPHS WORK COUP
Took Babies Ice Cream and Other
Nicknacks.

While the members of the High
school subsophomore class made merry
at the Slaughter home at 1915 West
ern avenue last night, firm in their
belief that the refreshments were in
the cellar. safely hidden from the
prying fingers of the sophomores, the
members of the latter class removed
a window from the cellar, entered
the building and removed from the
basement three gallons of ice cream.
The sub-sophs made an attempt to
overtake them, but fell down. At
least this is the story which was told
to the police last night.
The Sophomores had warned the
girls that the electric light current
was to be cut off and the refresh
ments stolen and the latter class mem
bers had taken every precaution to
prevent the execution of these threats.
But it was useless and after an inef-
fectual attempt to catch the burg
lars the kids ordered another
three gallon cask and ate it as soon
as it was delivered. 1t is reported to
the police that a large number of
milk bottles with nipples were also
ordered by the near-sophs.

New York, March 26.-The inter-
collegiate football rules committee
reached no decision today in their de-
Iiberations here to eliminate from the
Gridiron those features of play that
have jeopardized life and limb. The
fourteen members of the committee,
it was said, were divided in their
votes on the various propositions to
amend the playing rules while the
question of retaining the forward pass
in some modified form was still under
consideration when the committee f1n-

SCHOOL BOARD SITUATION.
Ex-City superintendent d. G. TillotsOn
Writes of the Insurgents.

To the Editor of the State Journal.
1 notice that one member of the board
of education thinks enough of the situ-
alton to attempt to bid for sympathy
instead of giving out a statement of
the boards financial condition. The in
surgents have no intention to restore
the high school fraternities; if for no
ether reason, 1t is against the law. But
we recollect that the board instead of
leaving q mere matter of discipline to
the teachers in charge, rushed in and
loudly proclaimed that the children
were disregarding the law and defying
the constituted authorities. We find
that this same board has been persist
emily disregarding the law and defying
the constituted authorities. The chill
dren simply followed in the footsteps of
the board of education.
The laws of this state. now do and
for many years have, plainly prohibited
the board from running into debt, even
making it penal offense, yet on the
first day of March last, there was out
standing warrants of the board stamp
ed mot paid for want of funds amount
ing to $50, 619.27. Of which $25, 00e.63 were
issued in 1909. Again. the law now does
md for many years has commanded
the board to publish financial state
ment. This law has been disregarded
by the board so long that they feel Of
Tended when a statement is requested.
That such a statement. if published in
full, might be interesting is shown by
eral fund for March 1. 1910, would have
revealed the following:
Warrants outstanding
and drawing inter
est .. So. 60937
February bills unpaid.
approximately -. q, $4,000 49, 81
Cash on hand .....-.. 1894. "A
Deficit .. ..... $I4,517. 95
With this deficit, and such funds as
may come in prior to the taxes of 1910.
the board must pay for more than three
months to the close of the present school
year, must pay vacation expense, and
pay for the first three months of the
next schoo. year. The taxes of 1910 are
not available until the close of Decem-
Der.
The insurgents believe that both the
beard and the children should obey the
laws of the state and the constituted
authorities thereof It is up to. the
d. C. TILLOTSON.

alton was given by the council to the
doctor.
.'It is with great regret that we see
DR.. Campbell leave Topeka" said Mr..
Blakely. HE has done excellent ser
vice, efficient work and has been one of
the most valuable men to the commun-
ity on account of his fearlessness and
his energy and the milk conditions that
All of the councilmen agreed with Mr..
Blakely and the vote of appreciation
was unanimous.
Susan ShociSley. who lives In a house
facing the new sewerage pumping sta
tton in North Topeka, wrote a letter
to the council through her attorney, J.
J. King. in which she stated that she
owned the property where the station
was built and that the city had failed
to ask her concerning the ownership
of the property before they built the
plant She suggests that a compromise
of some kind be made. The matter was
referred to the claims and accounts
committee in connection with the city
attorney.
The Topeka Kan and Will spirit has
spread to the city council. Last night
a regular old fashioned t'patronize
home industry ordinance was passed
which will mean considerable to the
work as well as to down
town business.
Hereafter unless a surety company
has resident agent in the city of To-
peka the bond of contractors, officials,
ETC., will not be received by the city.
A man must give a bond which is
backed by a firm doing business and
an office in this city. The
ordinance was passed with a hurrah
by the council-not man voting
against it.
City Attorney Ralston said further
more than he would not approve a
bond unless it was made out by a resi-
dent agent and this won the day. 1t
s commended that in case a man fails
n his work, the local agents can take
t right up and finish Il Foreign COM
oanies are slow and unconcerned.

GENERALLY FAVORABLE.
BradstreeFs Report on the Business of
the Week.

New York. March 26.-Bradstreet' S
says:
The weeks developments have been
generally favorable. Chief among
spring weather which, coupled with
the near approach of Easter, has slim
ulated retail trade at all markets, al
lowed of expansion in the building
trades, the preparation OF the ground
in the north for the planting, the be-
ginning of seeding of grain and cot
ton at the south and of oats and vege-
tables in the middle regions of the
country. The industrial situation too
has meaSurably improved in the col
lapse of the sympathetic strike at
Philadelphia, the return to work of
many thousands of idle hands there,
and the submitting of the western rail-
road mems demands to arbitration.
In wholesale, features are the slight
improvement in jobbing trade reported
as result of the picking up of re-
order business in spring goods at the
west, revision of bleached and brown
cotton goods leading to some increase
in business east and west, and the signs
of improvement in foreign demand for
cotton goods induced by attractive
prices.
Business failures in the United
States in the week ending March "a
were 231. against 20S last week, 226
in the like week of 1909. 2s6 in 1908,
166 in 1907 and 169 in 1906.
Wheat, including flour, exports from
the United States and Canada for the
week ending March "a, aggregate
1,63S.57S bushels, against 1,2S1,O04
last week and 2,O35,715 this week last
year. For the SO weeks ending March
"a, exports are 113,525,295 bushels,
against 144, 1OO,S62 in the correspond
ing period last year
Corn exports for the week are $751;

all other parts of Topeka.
