SEE ON THE STAND.
Author Of Absolute Life'' Testifes in
His own Defense.

Chicago, June 2S=Artfur See took
the stand in his own defense this after
noon He told of being visited by a. re-
porter and of allowing q, photographer
for a newspaper to take photo graphs
of Mona Rees and other students of
Absolute Life and of his arrest.
Police Captain Danner criticised him
for having girls living at his flat, he
said, and told Mildred Bridges and
Mona Rees to return to their mothers.
"Danner," continued the witness,
asked me if my relations with Mona
and Mildred were improper, and told
him no One of the reporters said his
paper had affidavits to the contrary
signed by several persons
Judge Honore took hand in the
questioning. 1T has been said one of
the principles of Absolute Life is that
if a believer thinks a thing is true that
makes it true. Does that govern your
testimony asked the court.
No
What is the foundation for that
principle of Absolute Life?" The re-
ply to this question was in the termin-
olOgy CT Absolute Life and plainly
perplexed the judge.
Are you answering the questions
here out of your own sense of right
and wrong or as any casual bystander
might reply?"
Your honor, there is no difference
between Absolute Life, truths or ordi-
nary truths said the witness with
fervor. I speak to you right from the
bottom of my heart. My replies are
true"

KAWS ARE AT HOME.
Met by a Band-Rumor of Many
Changes.

The Topeka baseball club arrived
in Topeka from Des Moines shortly
before noon today and were given a
ride up Kansas avenue in a street
car. preceded by a trolley band wagon.
While the club was not so success
full as on its last trip, Manager Rtckett
expects to get renewed life immedi-
ately and start from here.
There will be numerous changes to-
day and others are slated to follow
soon. Outhelder King. the Omaha
player for whom Thomson was trad
ed, is here and will play today.
Pitcher Durbin also has Joined and
will be ready for work. Cook, who
was traded for Durbin, came home
with the club, baking on the deal
Cook had a side agreement with the
local management which was unknown
to Rickert until after the deal was
made. It is doubtful whether any
thing can be done now but for Cook
Catcher Joe Crisp, the st. Louis
Brown who has held out persistentiy
in spite of two visits to Topeka. has
come to Topeka again and says he in
tends to sign up with the club. He
may get into uniform today His sig
nature on contract probably would
Bachant of Des Moines. Crisp would
make a valuable man undoubtedly and
would put the catching department in
a good way.
Herman Luettke, second. DaSendn,
late of the disbanded Independence
team in the Western association and
for three years one of the top fielders
of the association, has been signed
by the locals and reported this morn
ing T,euttke was formerly with Kan
sas City, going from there to Leaven-
worth in the old Western association.
He has played many times in Topeka
and may get into the game today.
Kreps, the new second sacker from
Concordia has been playing a good
game and there likely viii be a race
between him and Luettke for the
Buchanan. who has been scouting
for Rickert in the Kansas leagues,
wired from Mcpherson this morning
that he had a good pitcher lined up
in Campbell. Rickert will have Buck
bring the lad along and give him
chance.
McQuillen, the pitcher whose name
broke into the Topeka-Des Moines
box score yesterday lasted only part
of an inning and was given his yellow
slip. Jimmy Ryan, an old chicago
PLAYER recomm ended him to Moore
some time ago and it was thought he
should have a chance. He proved to
have nothing but pair of shoes and a
glove. His home is at Deerfield, Ill.
Rickert can not explain the II runs
made by the Hopefuls in the first IN
ming yesterday because he had injured
his bad ankle again and had gone in
the club house. Clark was playing the
left field, though the scorers did not
find it out. Rickert was credited with
five times at bat when he was up but
once

An automobile was found near Cal
houn Bluffs this morning burned to
cinders The machine was so com
pleteIy destroyed that its color or
number could not be determined and
the identity of the car or its owner
is mystery. The police were al
vised of the accident and have watch
ed for some report but to no avail.
Evidently no one was injured when
the car was burned. Some one must
have had to walk to town, but there
is no clue developed as yet. The
theory of a joy ride is advanced and If
that is the solution, somebody already
has paid for it.
