FODDER KILLS HORSES
Indigestion Found to Be "Aysterious''
Horse Disease.

Larned. Kan, April 13.-Reports
from various parts of western Kansas
indicate that the losses of horses from
the strange and violent attacks of in
digestion which they suffered during
the winter months are rapidly sub
siding. Thousands of dollars worth of
horses were lost in nearly every coun-
ty during the winter months from this
cause. The StOckmen have now been
pretty generally advised that the trou-
BILE arose from feeding kaffir and other
folders and not from weather condi-
tions as was at first supposed.
The peculiarl-- dry condition of the
last growing season caused the folders
to contain much woody fibre and thus
be more indigestible than under ordi-
nary conditions. This fibre filled the
horses stomachs and, because it con-
tanned no succulence, compacted there
and the animals first weaked from
starvation and then died from acute
Indigestion. The spread of this in
formation has caused most horse own
ers to change feed and the losses are
rapidly subsiding.

be the most catchy that has been
heard in Topeka in long time. The
greater part of it has been written by
or for Joe Bren. The rehearsals are
taking place each evening in the as
sembly room Of the National hotel.
Joe Bren, the producer, expects to
make this performance the biggest and
best affair of the kind that has ever
been put on in Topeka. Special cos
tunes have been ordered, and scenery
is in process of making fo-' the Audi
torium stage. With the. array of local
talent available, it is anticipated that
the show will be an eye opener. The
end men are going through a system
of drills that will put them in profess
siona1 class.
The originals of bud" Fishers
famous Mutt and Jeff cartoon series
running in the State Journal, will be a
drawing card. 1t is said that the clog
dancers are particularly good. One of
the features will be a quartette ar
rangement of the Rosary with organ
accompaniment A complete list of the
all star cast will be published later.

Hoch Finds Taft Sentiment.
Ex-Governor Hoch was in the city
today, stopping here on his way TO
Pennsylvania from his home in Ma
rion. The governor will not get a
chance to speak in the state cam
paign as he must fill his remaining
Chautauqua dates this month. He
declared that every Roosevelt speech
he read lately made him hotter under
the collar. 81 do not pretend to know
the situation in Kansas" said the gov
much lately, but over the country
the Taft sentiment is in the prepon-
derance. 1 expect the president to be
renominated and reelected by big

Close in Saline, Says Kirkland.
c. B. Kirkland of Salina is of the
opinion that the primary to select
county delegates for Saline county
will be closely contested. The Roose-
welt men expect to win but they will
not have many votes to spare. MI
Kirkland came to Topeka, today on
business with some of the state Off
Gals. He will be we'll remembered
as one of the fathers of the present
tax law Mr.. Kirkland was a member
of the 1905 and 1902 legislatures
from Saline and served as a chair
man of the house taxation committee
in 1907, at which time the tax law
was passed. Time has shown said
Mr.. Kirkland today, that it IS one of
the very best and most beneficial laws
on the Kansas statute books. There
are defects in the law and its enforce
ment, of course, but it is a great law
in the main. 1t has equalized taxation
without raising taxes, and that is
what we claimed for it when we
passed it through the legislature"

BATES BURNETT
IN BIG LAWSUIT
Made Defendant in Suit For $4,000
Alleged to Be Due Minors
Estate.

Muskogee, Okla, Oct. 8. = That
Bates B. Burnett is indebted to his
minor ward, Oracle Berryhill in the
sum Of $75,000.00, is the charge made
by J.. < Ledhetter, the present guar
dian, in a suit filed this morning in
the United States district court.
The suit was filed by j. E. Ledbet
ter, as guardian of Oracle |. Berry
hill, Creek minor, against Bates B
Burnett, guardian, and the Southwest
ern Surety Insurance company, the
plaintiff alleged that he and his minol
ward are both residents of Texas, and
that he was appointed guardian Of
Oracle Berryhill by a court in that
state.
The petition sets out that Bates B
Burnett was appointed guardian OF
Oracle Berryhill by the Greek county
court, in 1910; that the Southwestern
Surety Insurance company went OF
his bond for 100000.
At the time Of his appointment notes
and mortgages were assigned to him
by the former guardian, totaIing $S5,
$4,000, and sufficient amount of cash
was turned over to him, so as to make
about $91 ,S35.O2.
1t is alleged, also. that something
like $4,000 in cash was turned over
to Burnett from oil and gas rentals
off the property of Oracle Berryhill
and there were some other sources Of
income to the estate, such as interest
and other rentals.
The petition recites that j. E. Led
better. as guardian, petitioned the
court of Greek county to transfer tht
property and lands of Oracle Berryhil
to the jurisdiction of the Texas court
which was finally ordered done, after
an appeal had been taken, and ther
dismissed, by Burnett. That notes anC
mortgages, totaling $77,7S6.67, o
which amount 100000 was loar

For the period from 1908 to 1912
that the state has been under a demo
cratic administration, the state any
portionment for the public schools has
increased $2,622, 1886. The state ap-
portionment is principally derived
from the revenues of the state school
land. The state does not own foot
more land now than it did prior to
statehood, the only increase in the
source of revenue being five million
dollars appropriated by congress. 1t
will be observed that the 1908 appor-
tionment was made from revenues pro
vided by the foregoing administration
since which time they have increased
at a remarkable rate.
While the scholastic population was
more than doubled by the admission
of the Indian Territory yet the per
capita apportionments have not de-
creased but have steadily increased,
Respectfully submitted,
R. H. WILSON,
State Superintendent.
