is 1T BEN CRAvENS?
Man Resembling kansas Outlaw in
Missouri Prison.

Jefferson City, Mo, March 10.-A con-
vict who came to the penitentiary I'M
der the name of Charles Monst a few
weeks ago closely resembles Ben
Cravens, the notorious outlaw who es-
capped from the Kansas penitentiary
while serving a sentence for murder.
After a careful investigation the peni-
tertiary officials have decided that
they are sure Monst is Cravens and
have notified the federal officers who
arrested him. One of the United States
secret service officers is due to arrive
here tonight. Warden Andrae and his
deputies believe there can be no doubt
the man known as Monst is Cravens.
Cravens, E. E. Estell and Samuel
Smith escaped from the penitentiary
November 16, 1900. by using dummy re-
volvers made of wood They were at
work in the bottom of a coal shaft
when they suddenly flashed the wood
en- revolvers upon the guard. He was
bound and gagged and the hoist signal
was given. At the top of the shaft
they showed their dummy revolvers at
the guards whom they marched to a
gate which the tower man opened at
the order of the guards. Outside the
walls they took a rifle from a guard.
Smith was killed and the others es-
capped.
EsteIl was captured at Memphis. but

that the Kaw Paving company was
second lowest in the proposals. The
Cleveland Trinidad company bid lower
enough to make it cost each prop
erty owner about SO a lot more or
80 cents year for ten years.
The property owners paying for the
largest part of this pavement believe
that the Topeka company should have
the contract. They contend that it
means all Topeka labor, all Topeka
supervision, and eventually nearly
every cent stays in this city instead of
being paid to out-of-town companies
and to workmen shipped here from
other cities temporarily.
1t is contended also that the Cleve-
land Trinidad company belongs to a
trust of paving companies that is try
ing to force the Topeka concern out
of business. 1t is alleged that in do
ing so they do inferior work-al-
though this is not known regarding
the Topeka pavement
The city commissioners will not
grant the contract until next Thurs
day They are all willing that the
Topeka company have the contract if
the taxpayers say so.

Judge Whipple Will Speak.

All on. account of the oversight
on the part of the printen the man
who set up the program, Judge u
V. Whipple's part in the program
for the opening day of the fair was
entirely omitted.
The address to the county officers
to which Judge Wlipple was to re-
spond to, is really the main feature
of the mornings program and Pres
ident Martin is very much put out
on account of the omission from
the program.
Judge Whipple will be here, how
ever, and act his part. contributing
his full share of time and effort to
the County Fair.
We personally regret the ommls-
sion from all the printed programs

Hear almost the soft football.

As tarry. sad and lonely.
And unbiddcu fiow the tears
