AN EMPLOYER-DYNAMITER? q?

; The Lawrence strike was from first to last a
sensational affair, and one of few in which public
sympathy enlisted at first with the employers and
in the end was found solidly behind the employees.
For this change the mill owners themselves were
responsible. Dangerous the doctrines of the
Industrial Workers of the World may be, public
antagonsm to them was insufficient to Offset the
American peoples indignation over the arbirari-
ness of the employers and the high-handed and un-
usual measures adopted by them and the municipal

absolutely no fears for the Republican
party from Colonel Roosevelt.
Mr. Taft, who is touring Europe. ex-
pressed his personal belief that his
brother will be reelected President al

will give him the closest race of all the
present nominees.
Discussing American affairs in general,
Mr.. Taft defended the Presidents course
in signing the Panama Canal admins
tration bill to which the English govern
ment objected. saving it would entail no
hardship on British shipping.

SYMPTOMS OF A REAL CAMPAIGN.

Allen NJ Fletcher, standpat Republican candidate
for governor of Vermont, is using halfpage adver-
tisemens in the State newspapers explaining how it
isn't true, charged by in his town, that
he is tax dodger.
This indicates that the campaign up there is the
real thing and will enlist more heartily than ever the
sympathy of all the special-priviege advocates in
behalf of Mr.. Fletcher.

Congressman Norris of Nebraska, who is running

John D. Archbold certainly mas justification for

GOOD FOR CROPS.
February Has Been Unusual in This
Respect.

This was the most favorable Feb
ruary for the ensuing crop year that
Topeka has experienced; otherwise no
records were broken" reads The report
Of the local weather man for February.
The records of the local office of the
weather bureau show that the month
was slightly colder than normal and
that it received considerably more than
the usual amount of snowfall and less
than the usual number of sunny days.
The most remarkable feature of the
month, as a whole, was the absence of
extremes in temperatures or tempera-
ture changes. While it was colder than
IS of the past % Februarys, most of
them have had lower temperatures on
some days than the lowest that oc-
Cured this month and only one of the
past 20 Februarys has passed without
at least one day being warmer than the
warmest day of February, 1912.
The 18th of the month marked the
elimination of a period of IS days
with a temperature of SO degrees or
lower each day. This is the longest
period of freezing weather on record
at the station.
The average temperature of the
month was 20 degrees, which is 1 de-
gree below normal The highest tenn
perature was Sc degrees on the 10th
and the lowest was L degree below
zero, on the Sd.
The total precipitation of the
month was 1.5S inches=O.14 of an
inch above normal. The unrnelted
snowfall totalled ia inches. Of this
amount "a inches fell on the 25th.
But five previous Februarys have had
more snowfall and but one has had a
heavier 24-hour fall of snow.
During the month there were
clear days. II partly cloudy and IL
cloudy days. The percentage of sun
shine was less than that of any Feb

fewer number of clear days

FOUGHT OFF A BURGLAR
Mrs. Jack Cudahy Has Sensational
Experience at Pasadena.

Pasadena, Cal. March 1.-Struggling

entered her home at SIS Arroyo Crest,
after cutting the house telephone wires,
Mrs. Jack Cudahy, the former wife of
the Kansas City millionaire packer,
who obtained divorce after a sensa-

wife, fought her way to the porch of

a blow from the marauder, lay on the
floor screaming with fright and pain
while the struggle progressed. Neigh

rushed to her aid and the masked man
fed.
Mrs. Cudahy was severely bruised on
one of her arms, where she struck
against the door casing while fighting
to free herself from the grasp of the
supposed burglar. She was unable to
give more than a hazy description of
the fellow.

BRIDE CAME NOT
Pretty Gabrielle Ray, Actress,
Fails to Appear.
Was to Have Wed Scion of
Wealthy Family.


Windsor, England. March 1.-For-
saken at the altar by Gabrielle Ray,
the most beautiful charming and win
some musical comedy actress in the
some young son CT the Immensely
wealthy Sir Edmund Loder, is the
land.
What was to have been the most
brilliant wedding Miss Ray turned into
tragic Jilting simply by falling TO
appear to play the role of the bride
Loder and his attendants arrived early
at the Windsor Roman Catholic
church. gorgeously p1umed for the
Ceremony Members of the nobility
sWarmed into the church until the ed
l1ce was packed. The choir took its
place in the great loft and the priest,
clad in his vestments, waited to pro-
nounce the daShing stage beauty and
the heir to a title and a fortune. man
and wife
Five minutes passed and the ushers
plucked their mustacheS in vexation.
rem minutes and Loder became I'M
easy. Fifteen minutes and Loder was
on the verge Of collapse. Fashionable
ominously Miss Ray had not arrived
no. had she sent any explanatory
word. The best man sent a huge
limousine whirIing to her luxurious
Miss Ray had dismissed the car sent
by Loder to bring her to the church
and she would not be seen. Back to
the church went the messenger.
Young Loder turned deathly pale
and sank into a chair. The guests
sensed what had happened and the
astounding news was soon on the tips
of hundreds of tittering tongues His
attendants helped Loder into his car
and he sank back among the cushions
weeping copiouSly. The guests flIed
out of the church, possessed of food
for gossip that would last for months
to come.
No Explanation offered.
No attempt has been made to dispel
the mystery surrounding Loder's futile
wait at the church. Various reports
are in circulation to account for Miss
Rays action but none Of them are
given credence so much as the hrst
case of jilting. It is believed the
wedding is off indefinitely. Miss Ray
was with Loder Wednesday in a stage
box at the Gaiety, and the change of
heart must have come suddenly
1t is whispered that the actress did
her only object in promising wedlock
was to get some extra advertising. II
this was her object she has been sue
cessful, for the papers are devoting as
much space to the affair as to the coal
strike.
The argument that there was a
quarrel is based on another man in the
case who has been lowering about the
vicinity of her fiat for the past few
days. He is her former sweetheart
and her friends believe Miss Ray has
intended to marry him for a long time
past. He is Gerald Stern, son of the
late Baron De Stern and nephew of
Lord Michelin and a member of a IA
nous Angio-P ortugueSe banking firm.
He is so years old and possessed of

much more wealth than Loder.
After the announcement of the en-
gagement of the actress to Loder
Stern refused to talk and left London.
He returned only recently and it is
believed he has attempted to persuade
Miss Ray that she was making a mis-
take.
Much comment is also made on the
fact that while Loder appeared at the
church in the morning, departed soon
after the failure of his bride to APP
pear and has since declined to an
Swer all questions.
Barbara Dean, Gaby's actress chun1,
who married Loder's brother. Basil,
also refuses to make a statement.
The Ray fiat has been bombarded
all day with messages of inquiry but
the answer in each case has been that
Miss Ray was i'll. Late last night her
maid vouchSafed the information that
as soon as Miss Ray has recovered
from her indisposition the wedding will
take place in or near London.
