SHARITT IS THROUGH.
veteran Clerk of United States Circuit
Court Retires With Act of Congress.

Through an act of congress passed this
session, the circuit courts of the United
States have been abolished, their work
going into the hands of the United
States district court, and George F.
Sharitt, who has been clerk this court
in Topeka for % years, Will follow the
fate of his office.
The trial work of the United States
circuit court has been transferred to
the district court for some time and
bill to abolish the clerical offices has
been before congress for many years.
The Topeka officials have been expect
ing this for some time and it caused no
surprise. The act of congress has made
a law of what has been practice.
George F. Sharitt is known by every
court official and lawyer in the west.
Ever since he was Is years he has been
connected with government work IN
Kansas and for the last % years he has
been clerk of the circuit court in To-
peka Previous to that time he was
deputy United States marshal in Leav-
enworth.
At the age of 10 years Mr.. Sharitt
entered the marshals office when Marx
w. Delehany was on the bench. rms
was in 1873. Until 1888 he acted in this
capacity. And even as boy Is years
old the old timers say that George
Sharitt was one of the nerviest and
most efficient deputy marshals in the
country. In the time DSIWeSh IttC
years 1885 and 1888 he was the only
Republican in the marshaPs office-and
then there were duties all over the
state. w. c. Jones was United states
marshal at this time.
In 1883 he was appointed clerk or tn2
United States circuit court by Judge
Foster and Justice Brewer. He has
served since that date and the abolish
ment of the office will take place
n T1o,1f T11Iv this wear.
Mr. Sharitt has made no plans for
the future ct don't know just what l
will do or where I will go" he said
this afternoon. Il have been in To-
peka so Iong-and in Kansas since
1874 when we landed in LeavingWorth,
coming up the river in boat"
George Sharitt's absence from the
federal building will be a blow to the
LAWYERS of Kansas and to the friends OF
the clerk who never miss his office when
thew are in the vicinity. Sharitt has
been connected with the work so long
that he has become a necessary part OF
the work.
The records of the office and the
work will be under the jurisdiction Of
Mort Albaugh, clerk of the United
states district court, hereafter. 1t viii
be necessary for Clerk AIbaugh to en-
plov additional deputies to attend to
t, = office but it will come under his
head,

TOO MUCH SMOKE
Interferes With Grades Of High
School Boys.
Principal Stout Says Cigarette
Habit Is Increasing.
LOOK TO THE HOME
SAYS Parents Must Take Hold of
Problem.
Police No Longer Enforce the
Law.

Cigarette smoking among the boys
of the high school is a serious matter"
said Principal A. ]. Stout of that in
s.itution today. There are some par
ents who do not seem to understand
Why their sons fail in school If they
would notice their nervousness AMI
their stained fingers. and get within
two or three yards Of them and smell
the tobacco smoke, they would know
the reason.
There are some boys here who cant
do careful work because they are SIM
ply so nervous that they can't control
their fingers, and smoking dulls the
senses, too. 1t is a serious problem
which will have to be dealt with almost
wholly by the parents. 1t is the bust
ness of the fathers to look after the
boys. I'm like the old woman who
lived in the shoe-I can't be father to
all the boys, as there are too many Of
them.
Il don't want to be considered an
alarmist, but smoking among the
young men in Topeka is on the in
crease. There was a time when. the
police enforced the law in respect to
the handling or giving away of cigarette
papers.
Il notice smoking on the streets now
more because the weather is warmer
and the students come to school in Z
leisurely manner.
"At almost any of the outlying cor
ner drug stores one can see a bunch of
boys smoking cigarettes. I'd like TO
have the parents realize just what is
going on.
Il don't know of one student who IS
making fine grades who is smoker
the cigarette habit and careful work i'll
school do not go together. Many of
the parents have asked me why We
won't stop the smoking of the students
around the school buildings. This is
done as far as possible"
While apparently the smoking IF
cigarettes among the older generation
of men is not on the increase in To
peka, it seems to be considered the
thing among the high school boys to
carry around supply of "makins," or
the real article if any one has made a
trip to Kansas City or has imported a
supply.

RUN OUT OF CAMP.
Americans Considered Worthless by
Leader of Mexican Rebels.

Mexicali, Mex, March 6.-Mutiny
has broken out in the ranks of the
Mexican rebels holding Mexicali as a
result of inaction of the leaders, who
are remaining quiet in town awaiting
the expected advance of federal troops
from Ensenada. Captain Stanley
an American member of the insur-
gent band, endeavored to Gust General
Leyva from supreme command of the
insurrecto force, but was arrested and
is now in irons.
Several of the Americans considered
by the Mexican rebels as worthless
military material, have lately been run
out of camp. Leyva said today that
his continued policy would be to wait
for the government troops. The re-
bells have plenty of provisions.

PREPARE FOR BUSINESS.
Democrats Arc Making Plans for the
Extra Session.

Washington, March 6.-The major
ity members of the new ways and
means committee of the new Democrat
house held their first meeting today to
begin the formulation of a program
which may include the selection of all
standing committees as we'll as a deci-
sion in regard to the extent the extra
ordinary session will go in the matter
of revising the tariff. Chairman I'm
derwood of Alabama presided and all
of the fourteen members were pres
ent. The committee will be compelled
to listen to two factions in formulat-
ing their plans. One is radical and
demands that all of the committee be
named Immediately so that attention
may be given to all kinds of legisia-
ton. This faction will favor the en-
actment of a bill to carry out the
terms of the Canadian reciprocity
agreement but will favor also the re-
porting of a schedule revision of the
tariff, with at least the wooden and
cotton schedules tackled on to the Ca
madam agreement. The purpose of
this suggestion is to compel the inter-
probation that a vote against the revi-
sion of these schedules is a vote
against Canadian reciprocity.
The other plan, urged by the more
conservative members of the new
house in response to requests from
conservative Democrats of the senate,
involves action on the Canadian agree
ment and the consideration of a sched-
ule by schedule revision in the regular
session next winter. That the Cana
dian agreement will be given prompt
approval is not doubted by any faction.
All of the Democrats appear to con-
slider the vote in the last house a COM
initial of the Democrats to such legis-
lation. 1t is expected the new bill to
carry out the provisions of the agree
ment will be drafted by Representa-
tive Peters of Massachusetts, and that
it will be almost Identical with the
Mccall bill, conforming precisely to
the agreements as negotiated by the
administration.
Should the committee accede to the
demands for a general revision of the
tariff, to be open to the world, the
session probably would drag through
the summer and well into the fall In
support of their desire to tack revi-
sions of certain schedules on the Ca
madam agreement bill, several Demo
Gratis point to speeches made by
president Taft at Winona, following
the tariff session at which the Payne
kIdrich bill was enacted and subse-
ouently at Columbus, o., and Spring
field, Ill. Representative Cullop of In
diana said today that these speeches
pledged the administration to a revi.
sion of at least the wooden and cot
ton schedules
