KANSAS COAAENT
CROOKED DOLLARS.


There was lately released from the
federal prison at Atlanta, Ga, one
Benjamin D. Greene He is rather
old now, and gave his oath that he
was pennHess-the pauper's oath,
they call it-in order that he might
get out from under fine of large
proportions. Years ago, Greene con-
ceived the idea of making lot of
easy money; crooked money, it was.
stolen from his employer, a liberal
employer which educated him, and
gave him lifetime position at good
wages Greene was captain in the
engineer corps of the army. But he
was not an officer and gentleman;
only an officer. A crook is never
gentleman, although he may occa-
s1onally act like one. Greene and his
fellow conspirators made the easy
money, all right, such loads of it that
they must make an officers pay, Hber-
al as it is, seem trifling. But the end
came finally, as it usually doe sto such
transactions. The conspirators went
to prison, diSgraced and broken, after
spending most of the swag on high
priced attorneys. Greene is worse
than pauper now: an outcast, who
has known better days of ease and
luxury, which make poverty harder
to bear. Shorn also of the friends of
his prime, the picture is pitiful. But
It is just; those who dance must pay;
@AO0O WIZ SIOdI
In ths same prison which Greene
lately quit is Charles Morse a New
York banker, who had enough and to
spare, but who went after the crooked
money, only to have 1t kick backward,
landing him in prison. and leaving
him poorer than when he began; far
poorer, for he has lost something that
money nor financial genius can't re-
gain.
over at Wichita, Levi 9. Naftzger,
another banker, is in a bad position
because he trifled with the paltry pro-
fit of stolen stamps. He says the
greed for gold did it. And yet, what
fool to think he could even gain
gold that way.
So one might go on extending this
list Indefinitely. So long it is that one
wonders anyone will go after crooked
money, which will stay with him only
long enough to drag him down. No
man can make a greater mistake, and
the pity of 1t is so many otherwise
able men make it; men who might
easily have succeeded honestly, but
who are not smart enough to succeed
as crooks; no one is smart enough for
that.-Atchison Globe.

TOPEKA,S GROWTH.

Topeka's unusual growth of late is
getting to be something of an old
story. But those are the stories, the
kind that will bear repetition and still
remain interesting, which are worth
while. And as new evidence comes to
the front every day or so which is be-
yond dispute that Topeka is growing
like the proverbial green bay tree, it
is no more than right that attention
should be paid to it.
The latest bit of evidence in this
line comes from the city water de-
partment. 1t has made plans to lay
three miles of new water mains in the
immediate future and before the year
is over it is likely that these three
miles of new mains will be extended to
the five mile mark. And five miles of
new mains has been the average here
for the last three years. At the pres
ent time there is 81 miles of water
mains in the city. Fifteen of them
have been built during the past three
years. This is almost a quarter of the
total, and 1t is unmistakable testimony
of the way the city has been growing
of late years
Not only that, but there is need in
the city right now for even more new
water mains than it has been planned
to build this year. They would be put
in, too, were it not for the fact that
the law on the subject is such as to
hamper the city water department in
this particular Still, the needed ones
will come in time. But the mere fact
that Topeka is going ahead and build
ing new water mains at the rate of
five miles year is reason fer felicitous
congratulations all around among the
Topekans who are interested in the
city's growth and development New
water mains would not be needed in
such large proportions if the city was
not growing and growing fast, If new
houses were not springing up like
mushrooms, almost overnight
These facts, too. are bound to make
outsiders who are looking for desir-
able place to make new homes sit up
and take notice. Nothing is quite so
good a recommendation for city as
an adequate water supply. That's
what Topeka has with all of it's other
well known advantages Topeka is
fast looming up like a peer among the
other cities in this section of the coun-
try. And that this fact is being ap-
preciated is shown by the large num-
Der of people who are moving here
nowadays to make it their home.

ents in high schools and colleges?
Moreover, it should not be forgotten
that the average American boy is a
very fair shot and with minimum of
training would quickly become an ex-
cellent sharpshooter. With a fair
knowledge of tactics acquired at an
age when he learns easily d rapidly,
he would develop into an excellent sol
der ten years later. If necessity re-
quired his services, in a very Short
time. There are many things in our
modern school curriculum for which
military training might be substituted
with very great advantage. In cities of
sufficient size, the instruction could be
by a regular army man; in the small
towns and country districts, the train
ing would be less efficient both through
inferior instruction and lack of that
enthusiasm which comes only from
massed forces, yet much could be ac-
complished even there.

Champ Clark,s Parents.

While Champ Clark has risen into
prominence, his road has not been
strewn with roses, and it has been
through the hardest kind of digging
that he has reached the speakership.
Born in Anderson county among
the cliffs along the Kentucky river,
whose scenery is often compared to
that of the beautiful Hudson, Clark
was immured within the confines of
nature. The home of Clark was SINH
lar to that of other pioneer homes,
consisting of three rooms, the sitting
room, the bedroom, and the kitchen
and dining room com bined.
At the time of Clarks birth there
were no railroads in this section of
the country, and the farmers rode on
horseback to the nearest grocery
store" and postoffice for their sup
plies and mail.
Reared in what was then almost a
wilderness, Champ Clark, in his ear
Hest childhood was a student of ma
ture. He loved the little spring beau
ties which were found in the woods
nesting in the grass and weeds, the
old-fashioned thousand-leaf rose,
which blossomed in midsummer, and
the goldenrod, which betokened the
coming of winter. He knew the voices
of the bob white, the thrush, the
hooking bird, and score of other
birds of beautiful plumage which
maze Une1r homes IN the Hills.
John Hampton Clark, Champ
Clarks father, was a native of New
Jersey, and was born where Atlantic
City now stands. He was wanderer
and roved from Philadelphia to New
Orleans, then worked his way up the
Mississippi and the Ohio to Louisville.
The city proved not to the liking of
the vigorous young adventurer. and he
finally drifted to Lawrenceburg. There
he met Alethea Beauchamp. She was
frail, beautiful girl, and the wander
er quickly succumbed to her charms.
He lost all desire to roam further, and
after an ardent courtship persuaded
her to become his wife. He was an
educated man, mechanical genius,
and an enthusiastic exponent of the
doctrine of democracy. Mr.. Clark
was also we'll educated for those days,
having received six years schooling
in a convent.-Lawrence (Ky.)

These words form a small portion of
the much excellent advice that was
given by the apostle, Paul, to his CO.
laborer. Titus, who was ordained the
f1rst bishop of the church of the Gre
tians, from Nicopolis of Macedonia.
And this advice is just as pertinent for
every person on earth today as it was
for Titus in those years of so long
ago.
II there IS one thing that people,
who are DESTROYS of living in peace
and contentment, should avoid, it is
contentious of all sorts, including bick-
erlngs and strivings about the law. 1t
is seldom that anything comes of them
besides continued discomfort and that
is good neither for man nor beast. Any
individual can prove this for himself
by rejecting on his own experiences
If he Is honest. he will admit to him
self, at least, that many of the con-
tentfons he has engaged in with ac-
quaintances and friends, and relatives,
too even the more serious ones, could
have been averted, and that without
much effort. The inevitable result
would have been that he would be on
better terms with them tha-- he is to-
day, and a peace Of mind, that he
knows not of, would prevail with him.
Contentious are the easiest things in
the world to get into, and they are
just as easily avoided if there is any
disposition so to do. There are many
persons that go through life who are
practically strangers to them. They
accomplish these most desirable ends
by being charitable in their Judgment
of others, by being justly tolerant of
the rights of others to their own ideas
and opinions, by treating their associ-
ates in exactly the same way they
would like to be treated themselves,
with a Justice and fairness in all
things.
If the ways of these folk were only
emulated by every one, and particu-
larly by the chronic contenders-those
persons who are always looking for an
argument or a dispute Oh any and
every proposition-what much better
place in which to live would be this
world? OF course, it is well-nigh inn
possible to believe or to hope that the
people of the earth are ever going to
reach plane where there will be no
such things as contentious among
them. Once in a while, they are al
ing, but the greater portion of them
can be avoided with the exercise of a
minimum of care and effort. And this
is an end for which everybody will find
it worth striving.
