PLEA FOR ELLSWORTH.
Making a Strong Bid for State
Hospital.

r. F. Malaby of Ellsworth appeared
before the state board of control to-
day with a long list of reasons and
arguments why Ellsworth should be
chosen as the site for the new state
hospital. Sherman Elliott of the board
declares that Malaby has the most
persuasive tongue in the state of Kan
sas. HE can talk as strong for Ellis
worth as Proctor Knott did for Du-
luth, only he is sincere while Knott
was sarcastic said Elliott today. If
Ellsworth don't get the asylum it will
not be because that town did not have
an able pleader at the bar
Mr.. Malaby visited with his old
friend, superintendent Fairchild, while
here. It is understood that Malaby
will make the race for the state senate
from his district next summer. He
will make a big noise in the next legis-
lature if he lands the place; another
Carney of Cloud county.
The board of control is still in the
dark about the ultimate location of
that new asylum. The land and the
water and the price and the freight
rates and the transportation and the
climate do not seem to be able to all
get together and bestow all their bene-
factions on one place to make it per-
feet

WANT THE STREET OPENED.
People on Lincoln Object to Having It
Closed.

The city commissioners are trying to
wave a flag of truce over a neighbor-
hood row on Lincoln street not far
from the Country club this afternoon.
The neighbors are up in arms against
each other on account of the attempts
of tn city to widen or close Lincoln
street. A first petition called for the
closing of the street that the ground
might be used for a school house and
playground
This was done. Then another petit
tion, accompanied by enraged citizens
mostly women-came to the board.
Now they want the street opened up
again.
The commissioners feel that the en-
tire trouble revOlveS around neigh
borhood row in that section Of the city.
Today they are out to the scene OF bat
tie in a body They will make their
decision and either open or close the
street to the best advantage of the city
at larg-regardless of the row between
the neighbors.

TWO SEEK DIVORCE.
Both Wives Have Had Long Ex-
perience.

Two aged couples today sought re-
lief in the divorce court, after trying
the soul mate plan nearly so years
and finding it was not satisfactory. In
both cases the parties seeking di-
vorce have been married since the
early SOS.
Sarah NJ Rost. who married z. F..
G. Rost, June 8, 1881, wants a de-
cree on the grounds of cruelty and
neglect. Mrs. Rost does not go into
details concerning the troubles in the
Rost household. She is clear, how
ever, in her request for a division of
the Rost estate, which is valued at
5000 offset by mortgages aAgregat-
ing $3,8OO. Mrs. Rost also asks for
the custody of the two minor child
rem. The Rosts are old residents of
Shawnee county and were married in
Topeka 80 years ago.
Anna b. Browneu, after trying to
be a kind, loving and dutiful wife for
more than % years, offers to sur
render the job. She has found that
J. s. Brownell, her husband. does not
properly appreciate her efforts and
complains that he comes home at
varied hours of the day and night in
an intoxicated condition. Brownel,
she alleges. is an habitual drunkard
and for sometime has failed to sup
port her. No property rights are in
volved in this action.

RUN COOL CARS.
Utilities Commission May Force Roads
to Put on Refrigerators.

John Marshall, attorney for the
utilities commission, has filed suit be-
fore the commission to compel the
twelve principal railroads of the state
of Kansas to maintain refrigerator car
service for the shipment of perishable
fruits and vegetables throughout the
state. In his petition the attorney for
the commission alleges that: I'm the
process of transportation by railroad
large quantities of butter, eggs and
cream and other perishab1e products
become spoiled by reason of the heat.
That such products are ordinarily
shipped in common box cars, in which
cars during the summer, after being
closed the temperature is ordinarily
about 20 degrees hotter than the tenn
perature outside"
The petition asks for the establish
ment of this service over the roads if
the commission, after investigation,
finds that the business warrants such
a service.
At a recent meeting Of the whole
salers of the state of Kansas at En-
poria the following resolutions were
passed on the subject of refrigerator
transportation:
BE it resolved by the State Asso-
citation of Retailers in session at En-
poria August 29-30-31, That Mr.. John
Marshall, attorney for the board, pre-
sents and asks of the public utilities
board to investigate and bring such
witnesses, both retail and wholesale
egg men. to find out the real condition
and losses now sustained by our deal
erS in the handling of eggs, which
losses amount to thousands of dollars,
on the deterioration in the transporta-
ton of such products.
''It is asked by this convention that
the railroads of the state of Kansas be
required to furnish refrigerator cars in
the handling of the transportation of
perishable products
BE it resolved by this association
in annual session. that its secretary be
instructed to furnish copies of said
public utilities board for the state of

relief in transportation of eggs and

TAYLOR APPOINTED INSPECTOR.
Will Look After Electrical Work on
White Way.

Orville Taylor of Topeka, has been
appointed electrical inspector on the
Great White Way work. His appoint
ment was made by H. P. Miller, city
commissioner of waterworks and cleo
trio lights, and Superintendent O'Neil
of the city electric light plant.
This appointment has not been
made before the board of city com
missioners. If the commissioners feel
as they did the last time the matter
was mentioned, a row is scheduled for
the next meeting of the board.
1t was insisted a few days ago that
the city electrical inspector was COM
petent and had plenty of time to in
spect the Great White Way It was
contended that the city did not have
money to pay other inspectors when
man was on salary with sufficient
time and knowledge.
The commissioners were attending a
neighborhood scrap over the closing
of a street in the southwestern part
of the city this afternoon, and could
not be interviewed on the matter

PUT OFF PRIMARY.
Second District Committee Reopens
Contest to Protect Guyer.

The Republican congressional primary
for the Second district to have been
held tomorrow. September 9. has been
called off by the committee and will
not be heid until September 10. This
action was taken in order to protect
q. S. Guyer, the committees special
and only bona fde candidate for the
place. Guyer had not complied with the
federal statutes that require candidates
to file their campaign expenses ten
days before the primary. This omis-
sion would have made him ineligible at
primary held tomorrow, so the com
mittee put the primary off for ten days
in order to bri 1g Guyer under the wire.
This postponement of the primary may
result in some of the other candi-
dates for the place getting in the race.
They will have time to file as a result
of tie postponement, as Guyer must
file again in due form. of course it
may be that the postponement was
made for Guyer's own benefit and all
other candidates are barred from tax
ing part in the new primary.

Chester Taylor, manager of the
Frank G. King Co.. which played
Billy" at the Grand last night and
who took the part of the sailor with
the pipe, played at the old Crawford
| house in 1876. He was a boy of Is and
played in "Enoch Arden then present
ed by " B. Bryer. Nellie Boyd, Rose
Eytinge, we'll known actresses of that
time and Clay Lambert, who after
wards won fame as cornetist, were
also in the company.
The production dramatized from
TennysOn's poem byEdward Adams was
one of hte great scenic and dramatic
hits of the period. The poem was also
reproduced in moving pictures at the
Grand Wednesday and Thursday of
this week during the Sorrentino con-
certs.
Mr.. Taylor says his first appearance
on the stage was when he was a boy
of s years. He took the part of ''Hein-
rich with Joseph Jefferson's rip Van
Winkle'' company at the old McVicar
theater in Chicago.
Mcny theater goers at the Grand last
night were as conspicuous by their alb
sence as the teeth in "Billy's'' mouth.
However, the handful appeared pleased

voice is remarkably good and pleasing,
and she has a marked individuality
Mr. King gave her strong support.
Mr.. Taylor's old sailor makeup was
true to life.
The same play was given last year
by the Sidney Drew company at the
Grand. Last night many who saw
both companies made favorable com
parisons as to the work of the King
| company.
The part of the cabin boy, which was
written in by Mr.. King would have
been taken by his S-year-old son,
Frank King. jr., but the lad did not
appear on account of the Kansas child
