CAN NOT SEE HIM.
Relatives of Floyd Carter Denied Ac-
cess 10 Cell.

1t is likely that Governor Stubs will
be appealed to by the relatives of Floyd
Carter who insist on being allowed to see
him. Undersheriff Bayless. who is in
charge at the county jail. denies all per-
sons the right to see Carter, and his rela-
tlves are included. This is done because
the officials have proof that Carter s
relates carried out notes for him during
his Is, previous imprisonment.

talking with the cayenne pepper hero

he allow Mrs Carter to see the Jail
breaker Bayless remained firm and said
that Mrs. Carter did without seeing her
son for seven months without trouble,
that she was with him last week. that he
was well and that was enough. She could
not sec. him.
Later a girl was sent in to intercede for
the Carriers but Bayless still remained
his relatives who were used, it is believed,
to assist in laying the plot to escape
which resulted in nearly killing of Jailer
three men from the Jail.

they said they would leave the food and
stationery but Bayless informed them
that it would not be given to Carter: This
he said, Carter deserved as a punishment
because he had, while being granted
privileges planned to kill Bayless and at
tempted his murder before escaping from
Jail.
Bayless says he has plenty of proof that
Carter'S sister carried notes out of the
Jail. He does not know whether or not
she exchanged anything more than notes
with those outside or had anything to do
with sending other stuff into the jail
But by means of a broom stick wrapped
in wire notes were passed through the
Jail corridor to where she stood on the
outside and it is believed arrangements
were thus made for food supplies which
started the runaways on their journey
after they escaped.
Bayless says that Carter deserves close
confinement and he is going to get it.

Garter once and he tried to kill me for
it. I'll not abuse him now, but he doesn't
get any privilege here"
At the time of the attack and Jail break
Carter was enjoying more liberty than
anyone in the second cell house because
of Bayless tender heart. He was i'll and
was left out of his cage in order that he
might better take care of himself. 1t was
he who brought the buckets to the door
and threw the first handful of pepper into
Bayless' face. He had arranged with
Thompson and Steen to leave the cell
door open wide enough that the bolt from
the lock would shoot into place but the
door would remain open. 1t was his duty
as cell house trusty, to see that that these
inside doors were locked and he reported
that they were.

County Attorney Faces 20 Lawyers in
Incubator Raby Case.

Holton, May 4.-Topeka was crit
icised by the Shawnee county court
because Marian Bleakley post cards
were sold in the stores. 1t was claim
ed by Judge Dana that the sale of
these post cards and the newspapers
created sentiment in Topeka and
Shawnee county against the trial of
the kidnapping case.
In Holton the Marian Bleakley post
cards are for sale in the stores. In
one drug store a large display window
is filled with post cards with the pic
tUre of the baby on them. a large
sign naming the cards is painted
across the front of the window 1t
is said that there is a ready sale for
the cards.
All Are Satisfied.
Now that the trial has been called
in the Jackson county court, the at
torneys for both the state and defense
are we'll satisfied with the treatment
they are receiving. Judge Rains OF
the district court of Jackson county is
one of the best known and popular
judges in this part of the state and
the attorneys for both sides speak

Dr. Furst quoted from a newspaper

There are certain indications that

evolution and that physicians of the
future will occupy a distinctly different
relation to their clients from that of
the present.
we now have the great scheme of
preventive medicine which seeks to fore
stall illness rather than wait until it
is developed, before applying the RENE
dy. For generations people went to
their doctors only after all other eX-
pedients failed.
