At the making of this point young
Beattie should have been much pleas

his counsel upon the back after much
less important victories, but now for
some inexplicable reason he seemed
to 90 all to pieces. He buried his head
in his hands beside small travelling
bag he had on the desk in front of
him. He wept so bitterly that his
shoulders heaved and the tears stream

This placing of strange armed

ofthe tragedy five hours before it
occurred was the best point the de-
Tense made, though it was not a
very strong one.

that there are two organized gangs,

their system of protection is so per-

Topeka, Kan.-The State Board OF

Application had been filed for the ad.

found that it had no place to put them,
so turned them back to the counties
temporarily, at least. The institutions
are full, some of them to overlooking

There are Ia more patients already at

until some of the patients now in the
institutions may be taken back to
their homes or until the state makes
arrangements to care for more pa
tents.
The situation will be checked up to
the legislature this winter. That body
will be asked to furnish more room at
the institutions. Superintendent 7. G..
Biddle of the Topeka state hospital
says that institution is as large. as it
should be allowed to become and that
his advice to the legislature would be
to establish another institution in the
central or western part Of the state
rather than to enlarge the present in
situations.

the Topeka and Osawatomie institu-
tons Many criminal insane are held
in these hospitals. 1t is the opinion
of the officials that some of them
ought to be in the penitentiary, but
they have been declared insane. If a
hospital for the criminal insane is Gre
ated it will probably be established at
Lansing, near the penitentiray.

KANSAS TOP les
SAYS SYSTEM is GOOD.
State Auditor Gives Another Boost to
Expense Receipt System.

Wichita, Kan.-State Auditor j. M
Nation has transmitted his biennial re-
port to Governor Stubs, and in 1t
gives another boost to the travelling
expense receipt system which is so
unpopular with state employees. Ma
ton says that it is a wise provision
and that it should be continued.
The state employee who has any trav-
cling to do for the state is not per-
mitted to merely swear to his expense
account and have it allowed. He must
furnish a receipt for every item for
which he uses state money If an en-
ploye or a state official goes into o
railway ticket office when there is a
rush he and all the other prospective
passengers must wait while the agent
writes out a receipt. The alternative
is to pay for the ticket out of his own
pocket. Even receipts FOR street car
fare are turned in in many instances.
There was much more kicking on
this provision soon after it went into
effect than there is now. The state

it, or at least resigned to it. Mr.. Ma
ton, who has a good opportunity for
observation, says it is fine law. In
his report to the governor he says
on this subject:
"The lasA legislature inserted a
clause in the executive and judicial
appropriation bill requiring all OFF,
GERS therein named to furnish the au'
ditor with receipts for travelling ex'
penses. This was a wise provision
and should be inserted in all appro-
priation bills carrying travelling
funds. 1t adds considerably to the
work in the auditors office, but | am
convinced that it saves money for the
state. Some of the men who travel
at the expense of the state complain
at this requirement, but there is no
merit in their contention. think an
attempt will be made to limit the re-
Quirement to sums over one dollar.
! This would defeat the purpose of the
law and should not be done"

Horses Die From Eating Smut.

Emporia, Kan.-During the past few
mouths many horses have died in
Lyon and Chase counties, the result
of eating corn affected by smut. Four
valuable animals died in Bmporia liv-
cry barns in one week, and there are
numerous reports of deaths from the
country districts. Carelessness in not
cutting off bad portions of the ears OF
grain is given as the reason for the
sickness from smut, while the chop

are ground up. is said to be espe
cially dangerous.
