HALL OF MYSTERY
Where Floats Are Being Built

Many Strange and Wonderful
Things Are There.

In a large building, somewhere be-
tween Pauline and Mayetta, is con-
cealed the Mystery department of the
Semi-Centennial celebration. All
trails to this mysterious Matching place
of weird monsters and fairy chariots
are carefully covered, and the few
visitors permitted to cross the thres-
hold are sworn, with new and startling
profanity, to keep the secret.
In this place half a dozen artists are
grinding out the big floats for the half

must not be described in detail. About
half dozen of the largest floats are
completed, even to the seats whereon
Kansas beauties Will perch. One float
bears an enormous effigy of famous
Kansas bird; guess what it is; others
depict well known Incidents in Kansas
history. and over on one side a To
peka artist and decorator is engaged
in the construction of known and un-
known animals and vegetables. His
method of producing vegetables beats
irrigation.
Albert Reid, who seems to be gen-
eral manager of the secret factory,
says that the floats will be completed
in plenty of time for the big show, and
the troupe of trained artists on the
job are of the opinion that his guess is
correct. Nothing but a big fire in the
house of mystery or the arrest and de-
tention of the artists. they say, can
check their mad career.

The President VIII Pass Through "a
States on Western Trip.

Beverly. Mass. Sept. 6.=The route
along which President Taft will
thread his way for 1900 miles in a
tour of the west has been definitely
mapped out. The line runs through
"a states, while over 100 cities are red
dotted, showing pauses for speeches
on tariff, reciprocity. arbitration, con-
servation and Alaska
The president heads straight for
Michigan, pausing only a day or two
in New York and Pennsylvania From
Michigan the route leads into Illinois
and then through Missouri Kansas,
Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming,
Utah, Idaho, Washington, Oregon,
California. Montana, South Dakota,
Minnesota, Wisconsin and finally to
Chicago. Pittsburg and Washington.
In five states he makes no stops
The longest jump on the trip is $50
miles, from Los Angeles to Salt Lake
City. The president will seldom go
more than 20 or 80 miles without
stopping to say a word either at some
hall or from the rear platform of his
car.

object to Their Depot Being at
TeVis.

The old row between Tevis and Berry
ton, two Shawnee county municipali-
ties located in the south part of the
county, has broken out afresh and the
public utilities commission has been
called upon to arbitrate for the 'steenth
time. Tevis has a station on the Mis-
souri, Pacific and station agent to
cffer a s evidence that it is a town. Ber-
Iytol has 75 inhabitants to offer as her
exhibit A. Berryton wants the depot
moved to within her limits and let
Tevis revert back to chaos and Buffalo
grass and s7impled mounds.
Berryton claims in her petition to
the commission that Tevis has nothing
but 2 station and an agent while she
offers as an offset a muster roll of 75
souls She consumes go per cent of the
freight dumped at the Tevis station and
has to haul it overland to her doors.
She wants that station and wants it
bad. With that station at her back
door Berryton promises to thrive and
proportions that viii make her a rival
with the cities of the state. The Mis-
souri, Pacific is camped en- her frame
holding her back from commercial
greatness and she pleads with the hon
orable commission for r~lief from this
inlolerable condition.

NEVADA's BANKING LAW.
The State Examiner Believes it Was
Wrongly Interpreted.

Reno. July 24.-Eugene Howell. state
bank examiner, has petitiOned the Ne
vada supreme court for re-hearing OF
the matter in which section 70 of the
state banking law recently was de-
clared unconstitutional. setting up sew
eral grounds in the petition. chief
among which is that the decision rem
dered by the court Is Lot the final
Judgment in the case.
Section 80 of the law makes the
state bank examiner custodian of the
affairs of all defunct banks. The test
was made by Frank l.. Wildes, receiver
of the state Bank and Trust company
who claimed that the law was in
operative So far as the affairs of that
company were concerned because he
was appointed receiver before the new
law went into effect.
The application for a rehearing will
further delay the civil suit brought by
Wildes. representing the depositors OF
the defunct institution. against the di-
rectors to- recover the amount OF their
deposits.
