LOCALS WIN LAST,
TAKING SERIES
SAVANNAH NINE WHITEWASHED
/ TO o-WALKER'S PITCH
ING FEATURE OF GAME.

1t was case of too much Walker"
in the last game of the present series
which the locals played the fast semi
pro team of Savannah the past three
days and by his brilliant work Bruins
wick whitewashed the visitors l to 0,
thereby pulling down the purse cf
500 which had been hung up both
teams.
With his teammates playing almost
errorless ball behind him Walker
pitched one of the best games of his
career. He also made a record for
the season in strikeouts, causing
fourteen of the visitors to fan the
breeze. 1t can properly be called a
Walker victory as it was his hit that
drove in the only run of the game
which proved sufficient to put it on
the right side of the ledger.
The score was 90 up to the eighth
inning. Smith, first up, got to first
on a tumble by Norris; the local
heavyweight" reached second on an
infield out; Walker. next up, was given
quite an ovation when he came to the
bat and called upon to win your
own game, Billy !" With the crowd
on edge and the players keyed up to
tension point, Ray put one squarely
over the middle and Walker met it
with full force, the ball sailing to
right for two bags. Smith lost no time
in getting away and reached home
with time to spare with what proved
the only run of the game.
Savannah gave the local fans a
cold chill up the back in the ninth
when they made a game effort to
win the game Bouhan led off with a
single to right; Ray hit to shortstop,
and the attempt to nail Bouhan at
second proved futile and both men
were safe; Jolly, next up, hunted nice
ly, but Ray was caught at second,
Bouhan reaching third; jolly promptly
stole second and it looked bad for
Brunswick when LaMotte came to the
bat, but Walker took his measure,
and in club-swinging contest, to the
delight of the local fans, the boy with
the French name and Savannah
brogue bit at three fast ones, the re-
suit being that Walker had another
strikeout to his credit and LaMott
although he doesn't "parle vous Fran
caise," yet he managed to take
French leave, and many were the ex-
plantations he made to his teammates
last night of "how / missed that last
one"
A play of the hair-raising variety
was pulled off by Purdy, Savannah's
fast leftielder, when he pulled down
line drive which looked good for
home run. The smash was of
Bowen's bat and Purdy had to run
to the fence. 1t was one of the pref
test catches ever seen on the local
diamond, and we'll merited was the
land he received. M. Ray, at second,
also put up brilliant game for the
visitors, accepting nine chances with
out an error.
For the locals Parker's work at sec
ond was fine While he is credited
with an error, yet some of his stops
were phenomenal. Smith played his
usual good game accepting five diff
cult chances.
To show their appreciation of Walk
er's billliant work, the fans took up
a collection which Melted "Billy"
neat sum. Following is the box
score of the game:

QUINCY is OPPOSED.
Doesn't Want Reciprocity of the Taft
Brand.

State Senator Fred S. Quincy, the
Salina banker and progressive poll
tician, is opposed to reciprocity of the
brand President Taft is trying to get
through this session of congress. He
believes that it is free trade pure and
simple and not related at all to the
reciprocity urged by James G. Blaine
in the good old days;
Senator Quincy stopped off in Tope-
ka today on his way home from the
state bankers meeting in Kansas City
Asked about the Capper candidacy on
harmony platforms he said: we
must have harmony, even IL we nave
to fight for it."
the progressives, but he was not pre-
pared to dispute Senator Longs pre-
diction of some days ago, that Kansas
would be for TAFT for the Republican
candidate in 1912. There does not seem
to be anyone else in the running up
to this time" evasively replied the SEN
ator. Kansas may not have a chance
to choose a candidate to support"
Senator Quincy said that when the
reciprocity bill was first introduced III
congress he was for 1t on, general prin-
ciples, but that after he read the meas
ure carefully he quickly changed his
mind. You will remember, he said,
that a resolution was passed by the
house during the last session OF the
legislature in favor Of the Taft re-
ciprocity bill. L read the national
measure carefully through during my
trip home over Sunday and upon my
return to Topeka the next Monday serv-
ed notice on my friends among the
Republican and Democratic senators
that 1 would oppose the passage of the
house resolution. I urged them to read
the reciprocity bill. They did, and the
house resolution died in senate com
mittee.
1.-The principal of the Taft plan of
reciprocity is wrong, and will, in my
judgment, If enacted into law, endanger
the party at the polls next year. The
bill places all the raw product on the
free list but does not remove the tariff
on the manufactured product. This
simply means that the American farmer
will get less for his product in compe-
tition with free grain and live stock
from Canada, while the American man
ufacturer makes bigger profits than
ever. The American consumer VIII pay
the same price as of yore. We do not
buy wheat or cattle on the hoof or
sawlogs. We buy flour at the miller s
own sweet prices, dressed meat at the
limit price the packers dare to pile on,
and lumber at a dollar a pound. For
every raw product mentioned in the ad-
ministration reciprocity bill the finish
ed article should have been considered
too.
"I believe the American farmer will
get I'D on his hind legs and roar like
a walrus when the reciprocity treaty
gets to going good"
Asked for the second time if he was
fo- Capper for governor the portly
banker-politician placed his hand on
the reporters shoulder and said SOL
emnly: Young man 1 am for harmony.
You can quote me in this matter II
you so desire"

cars had qualified at noon today for
the big Memorial day automobile race.
Those entries that qualified included

accidents, the speed trials were highly
exciting.
No official time was given for any
of the trials, but several cars made
the circuit of the speedway at a speed
above 80 miles an hour. The test re-
quired was rs miles an hour. Louis
Chevrolet, driving a Buick, is said to

GOrdOn-Munn Case Again Reach
es This Stage.
Mrs. Gordon Finishes the Intro
ductiOn Of Evidence.
ARE NOWQUOTING LAW
Lawyers for Mrs. Mum Arguing
Demur to Evidence.
Why Mrs. Gordon Rejected Pro-
pOsal for Compromise.

An unexpected delay was encoun-
tered this morning in the GORDON
Mum case, when attorneys for the
plaintiff suddenly announced the
completion of their case and the de-
Tense interposed a tantalizing demur
to the evidence that promises to tie
mp the proceedings for the remainder
Of the week.
Shortly after court opened at 8
O'Clock this morning, the plaintiff
asked for a short recess in which the
lawyers might confer regarding the
evidence. Ten minutes later 1t was
announced that the plaintiff had
made her case. Then the defense
dragged a wheelbarrow load, of legal
references to the court room and at
tackled the case from half dozen an
giles. But the plaintiff was equally
well supplied with legal references
and for two hours the lawyers hurled
volume after volume of citations at
the court while the jury stood in the
lobby and discussed crop conditions.
At noon the half dozen lawyers
were still going strong. The stack
of books on the long table had in
Creased several fold. DISTINGUISHED
parties tried in a dazed manner to
grasp the fine points Of the conten-
ton, but soon gave up and left the
court room in despair The supposed
contents of the ante nuptial agree
lnent was causing much trouble, but
fer reasons which only the court and
attorneys seemed to understand.
Lawyers stone, Hite and Troutman
for the Mum interests declared that
the burden of disproof Of the contents
of this contract were at the door of
the plaintiff. To be sure the minds
of these lawyers were not real clear
as to just what that contract con-
tanned; but they argued that this
made little difference. They read
from Mrs. GordUn's answer to Mrs.
Munn's answer in which she admitted
that an ante-nuptial contract had
been made. For this reason the de-
Tense contended they could plead the
contents of the contract even though
they could not produce it-and the
attorneys for the little woman at the
end of the long table were compelled
to refute their statements.
Then Attorneys Allen. Crane and
Larimer told Mrs Gordon's side. They
ridiculed the idea that they were
bound by the burden of proof or dis
proof of any of the defendants theories.
Further. they pleaded ignorance as TO
the contents of the contract and de-
clared that Gordon himself had de-
etroyed the force of such an agree
ment by violations of its alleged pro-
visions when he failed to transfer the
property to the defendant which the
contract is presumed to have conveyed.
Had the plaintiff not proven her legal
marriage to the wealthy Topekan
Has she not proven her right to in
herit? Certainly, the plaintiff argued,
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1911-05-26

this was sufficient evidence on which
to base it's case.
When the noon hour came Judge
Whitcomb gathered his notations on
legal authorities and promised to
think it over. This afternoon court
adjourned early in respect to the fun
eral of Bert Lucas, former sheriff, and
the final. decision in this argument
may not be made until court conveneS
next Monday morning.
Will Be No Compromise.
While the lawyers are busy piling up
legal stumbling blocks for the court
and are raking the records for error
on which to base a possible. necessary
appeal, they are overlooking no OPP
portunities for promising compro-
mise. 1t was rumored at the court
house today that the alleged glittering
compromise which the Mum interests
offered Mrs. Gordon Thursday morn
ing was not the genuine article which
at first appeared on the surface. 1t is
stated that the following figures
compiled by the Mum interests-show
the proposed distribution of the prop
erty:
Mrs. Munns
interest
342 acres north of North Topeka. SAP, 500
100 acres in Texas. 1000
city lots in Denver ......... 1000
1 lot on Kansas avenue, Topeka,
IL acres on Seward avenue. 49,. 5000
acres on Polk street. ......... 1000
/ lot in North Topeka. 1000
Cash in hands administrator. $4,000
Total asked by Mrs. Mum. :. s77,5OO

Gordon home in Potwin. ......... $500
120 acres south of cemetery. ....... 1900
Cash in hands administrat 500. 1900
Total offered Mrs Gordon SAT, 500
This compromise still looks promis
ing. But it is reported that the plain
comparison of the property rights
shows. that Mrs. Gordon was to re-
ceive in the $47,500 budget relin-
nuishment of the contest over nearly
$4,000 worth of property which was
decided to Mrs. Gordon by Mr.. Gordon
before his death. This battle is still
pendine in the supreme court. Mrs.
Gordon holds deeds to this property
and has won her contention in every
contest. BY deducting this amount,
Mrs. Gordon was left with less than
$50, 900 in the pending contest involv-
ing title to more than $4,000 of the
Gordon estate
1t is also stated that Mrs Gordon
asked for an arrangement that would
give her title to part of the $42,500
farm north of North Topeka, but that
this reSqueSt was rejected by the de-
Tense. Then it is claimed that Mrs.
Gordon offered to settle for $4,000
cash, turning over her property tied, up
in the supreme court and the interests
involved in the present hearing. She
claims the widows share of the state,
half interest.

PUPILS ARE DEFECTIVE.
One Out of Every Seven in Lincoln
School

One pupil out of every seven in the
Lincoln school has some impairment
in vision. This was discovered upon
examination of the children of the
school by committee of eminent
physicians appointed by the state
board of health.
The time is looked forward to when
examination can be made of all the
school children in the entire city.
Cards have been prepared which
will be signed by the teachers and sent
to the parents of the children who are
defective in sight, ding that
the children be taken to some special
list for treatment and adjustment OF
the impairment. The name of no par
ticular specialist will be mentioned on
the card.
Each teacher in the schools has
been supplied with test cards for de-
fective vision, and has received in
structions in respect to how to use
them.
The purchase of the test cards was
authorized at a recent meeting of the
board of education.
