Secretary Wilson Is for
Manufacturer.

DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, the famous
food ind drug expert. whose official
scalp is so earnestly sought J certain
interests, and whose controversies
with Secretary Wilson, head of Uncle
SANS Agricultural Department. have
kept the press hot for months, has an
other defender of his
+ trenchant course in Miss Alice Lakey,

Other points made by Miss Lakey
are:

MAKES CoLLAPsIBLE BICYCLE.
EngIishman Can Garry 'sWheeI'' in His
Suitcase.

New York, May The latest de-
velopment in the bicycle may revive
its popularity, especially among tour
lists. This invention is the work OF an
Englishman, John Robinson, who Is
now touring America. After three
years study he has developed a BIZ
cycle which can be folded up and com
pletely dismantled so that 1t VIII mt
into a case not much larger than the
ordinary suitcase.
Mr.. Robinson has been touring
America and already has 1000 miles
to his credit on the wheel.
Everything about this unique wheel
can be taken apart. This is done by
means of screw collars which Mt over
various parts of the framework. 1t
takes five minutes after you get or
the train or steamer to put your col
lapsible bicycle in running order. 1t
takes about three minutes to put 1t
back in the suitcase. Can you beat
it? sgIas
To make the bicycle light, aluminium
is used almost throughout. The wheels
are understood to make the leather
case smaller. Everything is con-
structed SO that it will fold down fiat
The picture shows John Robinson
holding his collapsible bicycle half
way dismantled.

BOY SEEKS HIS FORTUNE.
Carl Janssan of Sweden, Here TO Get
Job.

Carl Janssan, a II year old boy,
right from West Maland, Sweden,
wants to become an American. He
also wants to work. But before he
could enter the Santa Fe shops it was
necessary for Carl to obtain the ap-

boys interests, Carl was happy. Mon
day the boy will begin work in the
Santa Fe Shops

young Janssan landed in New York.
Hia parents are still in the old coun-
try. But Carl had heard OF Kansas
when he was in school in West Ma
land. He had also learned of Topeka
Carl had been taught that a boy with
energy and thrift might some day be-
come wealthy in the state CO sun
flowers. So Carl came to Topeka to
become rich man.
To be sure it was a rather ragged
brand of English that Carl carried to
Topeka. But he ia a promising look
ing chap. He is strong anil healthy
He knows how to work and the fact
that his English and native tongue are
hopelessly mixed, does not discour-
age Carl in the least.

Topeka bidder. Council was the lower
of the two bidders. but the board voted
to give Belts the job.
On the general specifications Belts

ders were also asked to give BIDS. ON
one Of these. the cement floor, Council
was S104 below Belts. On the general
work. he was Just 81 below the Topeka
banker contractor. One of the reasons
assigned for not giving Council the con-
tract was the fact that he did not olo
on the wood floor, one of the alterna-
tives.
Belts bids on alternatives were: Tint.
ed walls. S175; wood floors, $672; cement
floors. $1,653. Time for completion OIL
the building is set at 80 days from let
ting of the contract.
Council was i'll at mind after the

lost because he did not have a po-
litical pull.
my contract was the lowest. ;"
Council stated, land should nave
been entitled to the work. The fact
that 7 did not bid on the side Job was
not a good reason for throwing my bid
out. It looks like a political deal to
me"
But the county commissioners state
that Council did not specify in his bid
when he would complete the work.
Also they allege that he did not cover
thoroughly all the requirements asked
in the call issued by the board.
