Officials Close on the Trails
of the Suspected Man
Near Geneseo
BELIEVED ACCUSED WILL
Be LYNCHED IF CAUGHT
Posse of Farmers Resumed the Search
Today After Brief Respite For a
Few Hours Sleep Last Night-Cul.
prit Has Record.

Ellsworth. Kan, Oct. 1s-Near
Geneseo, KAN. the sheriff's posse is
believed to be close on the trail of
Charles Marzyek. wanted in connec.
ton with the five Showmens murder.
A deputy sheriff sent to Geneseo
oy sheriff Rufus Bradshaw reported
today that man answering the de-
scription of Marzyek had been seen
Bradshaw's deputy Immediately raced
10 Geneseo In an auto. The prosecu.
tors office here awaits the report from
the posse and is prepared to send adj
dlt1onal assistance to the officers in
case they need it.
The suspect seen at Geneseo fs said
by Prosecutor Samuel Bartlett to be
the same man who stopped at the Bad
en- hotel here and left some bloody
clothes on the night of the murder.
Officials from Ellsworth found that the
man walked here to Kanapoolis and
rode passenger train to Geneseo. He
was then traced to a rooming house
in Geneseo.
New evidence releaved today for the
mouth and Colorado Springs slaughter
with the Snowman tragedy. A day
or two ago Just outside the house in
which the Dawson familv was killed
IN Monomouth was found a piece Of
gas pipe bearing the inscription Col
crado Springs. Sept. 4. 1911" The
colorado Springs murders were COM
mitted after this date.
The lead pipe was about such a
weapon as thug would carry in his
pocket. ais
After having slept only a few hours
curing the night, scores of determine
ed farmers armed with shotguns and
rifles resumed the hun tfor Charles
| Marzyek. So persistent are tho
rumors that Marzyek has been in
the neighborhood that Sheriff Brad
| shaw was compelled to set out this
morning in an auto to assist in the
man hunt. The sheriff claims to have
an important clew as to the where.
abouts of the ex-convict.
The impression prevails here that
the farmers forming the man hunt
ing posse are in such a frame of mind
that the suspected man would be
summarily lynched should he fall in
to their hands. To obviate this nos
stbtlity the sheriff's officers are maxi
Ing a strenuous effort to capture
Marzyek and spirit him away.

| Amid all this military pomp and
splendor the occupant of the launch
was slowly clambering, feet foremost,
and just as the last gun was fired he
stood erect at the top of the gangway.
1t was the admiral's cook with a bag
Of fruit in each hand! The honors in
tended for q general had been rendered
to old Pomp AS the situation dawned
on the men even discipline could not
check a general shout of laughter. The
old admiral himself laughed until he
could laugh no longer.
I 1t seemed that in some way the
dinghy had gone off and left the old
negro and that he managed to con-
vince the coxswain that ''Marse Farra.

that the admiraPs launch never went
to the port side and that the old man
would have to land on the starboard
side, aft. Had the awning been a
little higher the mistake in identified
ton would not have occurred. AS
things were, no one could be blamed,
and the affair was treated as joke,
while the old cook was nicknamed the

When an hour later General Candy
did come he was received with all
due ceremony and on being told the
story laughed until the tears rolled
down his cheeks and demanded to see

UNIVERSITY OF FRANCE.
Essentially the Same Today as Whom
Established by Napoleon.


In the United States there are many
universities which are free from state
control. but In France there is only
one university. and II Is an absolute
instrument of the state. Ii is TRUE
that there are schools of higher learn
ing. which were founded in 1870 as
universities. but five years afterward
the title was withdrawn. and they are
now called '1nstituts." They are FIVE
IN number and are located In Paris.
Lille. Lyons. Toulouse and Angers.
But the University of France is an
entirely different organization. Ii IL
the official school. 1t is centralized In
Paris and has under II a vast multi
tude OF establishments. faculties. col.
lege and primary schools. distributed
over the whole surface of the country.
Directly or indirectly they all depend
on the government.
The university was established by
Napoleon. and in spite of certain modi-
fications which II has undergone dur
ing years il is the same today In its
essential elements as the day he
founded It, Just as he established the
entire civil administration. with It's
projects, subprefects. judges. minis
ters of finance. so he created in 1904
this vast educational organization.
with its countless professors. who con-
troll the entire intellectual training Of
France.-America.

Getting the Exact Spot.

An emergency call from a policeman
for a tape measure kept two women
waiting in the dressmaker's parlor for
FIVE minutes. There were other tape
measures there which the dressmaker
might have used. but she was too
busy pondering the circumstance that
had suddenly converted her into an
ally of the police department. Pres
emily the policeman returned the tape.
"What did You want it forT' she
asked
"To help find the right place to shoot
a horse with broken leg" he said
The vital spot is just three inches
above that little swirl in his forehead
where a dozen crowns seem to meet
| am not very good at guessing. so we
thought it safest to find the exact spot
with tape measure"-New York Sun.

A WASTED SALUTE
Naval Powder, Pomp and Splen-
dor and a Fizzle.
A SURPRISE FOR FARRAGUT.

Tho Admiral, With His Assembled
Staff, Was Under the Impression
That He Was About to Greet a Mill.
tary Guest, but He Was Mistaken.
A group of officers were swapping"
stories at the Army and Navy club in
Washing ston one night when one was
reminded of an amusing incident that
occurred in connection with the stay
Of the flagship Monongahela at Pensa-
cola bay when Farragut was on board.
The old fighter had been very busy
the week before paying official calls on
the mainland, and among those who
had entertained him was General Can
by. When. therefore, word was re-
ceived that the general would visit the
ship the next day the admiral was de-
termined to have everything in readi-
ness to receive him in style becoming
his rank.
The old boat was scrubbed and holy
stoned from stem to stern, the brass
| work was given an extra rub, and
things generally were put into the best
of order. The captain Of the marines
had a special inspection of his COM
pany, and not a spot of rust or dull
| helmet spike escaped his notice. When
night closed in darkness settled down
over a very clean ship and very tired
ships company.
| Bright and early the next morning
the admiral's launch was sent off to
| bring the general aboard. At the last
moment it was discovered that there
was no fruit for luncheon, and Pomp,
the admiral's cook, was sent in the din
ghy to get some.
Pomp was a character in his way
and had been with the admiral for
many years. He was very proud of
what he called his military bearing and
wore his beard carefully trimmed to a
point. His hair and beard were nearly
white. and, although he was sixty
years old, he ruled the other negroes
with a rod of iron. -

ter came aft and reported that the ad-
miraIs launch was returning. The
officer of the deck walked to the rail
and took squint at the boat through
his glasses A man clad in blue uni.
form was seated in the admiral's cane
chair in the stern, but as the gunwale
struck him just below his shoulder and
the awning hid his head the officer OF
the deck was not certain that 1t was
General Candy until as the wind lifted
the edge Of the awning he caught q
glimpse of a gray beard.
Word was passed that the genera
was coming. The crew were beat tC
quarters, the marine guard paraded
and the<sun squad, detailed to fire tn,
salute, took their stations. Everything
was in readiness, and the admiral ant
his staff stood at the head of the gang
way to receive the guest. A hush O.
expectancy settled over the ship.

All musical authorities have agreed
that when used in a proper way the
drum is thoroughly musical The COM
mon snare or side drum is freely used
in musical composition. A large num-
ber Of drummers performing stimuli
taneously out of doors produce good
music. In this connection Berlioz, the
composer. pointed out that a sound
that was insignificant when heard
Singly. such as the clink of one or two
muskets at shoulder arms or the thud
as the butt comes to the ground at
ground arms. becomes brilliant and at.
tractive if performed by h thousand
men together.
