He came swinging down the street 1 was amazed to note that his face was not the unnatural color of the morphine users that I expected, but ruddy with health. His eyes, however, wore strained expression and his brow was knotted with wrinkles. was strongly tempted to spring out from where l stood as he passed. to seize him by the throat and to make him tell me all l wished to know about the hideous mystery. Yet better judg- ment withheld my hand. After all, the evidence l had against him was not of the tangible sort that would convict Even though I knew of his telephoning Katharine just before she shot herself, even though General Parrish had learned something about him that barred him from the house, even though We had found In his rooms a hypodermic syringe and the address in New Jersey where the third suicide had taken place, even though l myself had noted his suspicious ac- tions there, there was nothing definite enough to warrant seizing him as yet. l watched him as far down the ave- nue as my eye could follow and then turned toward the Parrish house This time 1 was admitted without delay. Apparently the maid had new instruc- tions

 "Oh, Harding" she gasped. its gone-stolen!"
 What do you mean? Whats sto- len?" 1 cried, seizing her hands tightly in my own.
 She was trembling all over and her breath came in quick, short jerks. She was dressed in an automobile hat and coat, but even through the thick folds of her coat could feel the pal pftating of her heart. The new mys- tery, whatever 1t was. had been too much for her already overstrained nerves. She was i'll a condition close ly bordering on hysteria.
 Tell me about it. what was it?" l said

I had not seen it since then. My last recollection of 1t was placing it in her hand as Davis and I left the house.
 Let me think" she said, trying hard to regain her composure When you and MT. Davis were here the other day you gave it back to me. l took 1t upstairs and put it in a drawer in little desk in my room. locked the desk and hid the key in a vase on the mantel. 1 went to the desk just now to get 1t and it was gone"

WOMEN STICK BETTER
NOthers-in-Law Cause Half the Do
meStic Trouble.

Chicago. Oct ga card index kept
by Judge William y. Gemmill. of the
court of domestic relations, has been
tabulated by the judge and shows that
men are far less reliable than women
in the married state and that disease
and mother-in-law are equal in respon-
sibility for wrecked marriages, causing
half of them.
Following is Judge GemmflTs tabu-
lation of the causes of broken mar
riages:
Young and hasty marriages, Is per
cent
Hidden diseases. 25 per cent.
Interference of mothers-in-law 25 per
cent
Interference of children in second
marriages, 10 per cent.
CngovernabIe temper, per cent.
Whisky and drugs, Is per cent
Miscellaneous. 3 per cent.
1t is a surprising fact said Judge
Heminlll. but the statistics of this
court show an incredible number of
men have little compunction in aban-
doning their families to chance. AL
most no women desert their families
under pressure of want They are far
superior to men as stickers. By young
ana nasty marriages mean the large
number that take place between per-
sons under 20 years Of age. These are
likely to break up in less than two
wears"

Stop the Cars by Setting Fire
to TreStIe.
THEY Line UP THE TRAINMEN
UncOupIe Engine, Baggage and
Express From Other Coaches.
Force Engineer to Pull Across
the Burning Structure.

Muskogee. ok. Oct 29.-Three
youthful robbers held up south
bound Missouri, Kansas and Texas
train south of Eufaula today, compell-
ed the engineer to detach the express
and baggage car and run them ahead.
They then blasted and rifled the ex-
press safe. Company officials said
they believed the robbers got several
thousand dollars.
By setting fire to a trestle near
Wirth, the bandits had no trouble in
tagging the train Although the
flames threatened to destroy the tres
tie before their work was accomplish
ed, the robbers moved deliberately.
Covering the engineer and fireman
with their revolvers they ordered them
from the locomotive cab.
]. A. Dolan, the conductor, leaped
from coach and was lined up beside
the enginemen. A porter also fell d
victim to his curiosity and was made
to stand beside the conductor. While
one rObber held the line of employees
the other two uncoupled the engine
baggage and express car from the
coaches. They then forced the train
men into the cab and ordered the en-
gineer to open the throttle. The en-
gine pulling the two cars shot across
the burning bridge. What remained
of the structure fell into the water a
minute after the cars had passed.
Half mile on the other side of the
bridge the bandits ordered the en-
gineer to stop. The safe in the express
car was dynamited and the robbers
fled to the woods with their plunder.
Express officials fear several thou
sand dollars was stolen.
The alarm was soon given and
posses were sent from CroWder and
Eufaula. Other posses left an hour
later on special trains from McAIester
and Muskogee. According to the de-
scription given, each of the bandits
was less than 25 years old.

NO SCHOOL BOARD
City Plans to Do Away With
Organization.
Instead Appoint a Commission
er of Schools Here.

If the plans of Mayor Billiard and the
city commissioners meet the approval
of the members of the legislature this
winter-and the city hall feels that
they will-Topeka viii not have a school
board next year. Instead the city will
submit to the voters the right to elect
a commissioner of schools who will be
a member of the board of city COM
missioners. This is an advanced step
in the complete organiza ton of muni-
cipal government toward the perfection
of the commission form.
It is the belief of the mayor and COM
missiOners that the present school
board is nothing more than a part of
the old council form of municipal con-
troll. The members of the board serve
without pay, they do not spend all of
their time in the interests of the
schools, and the entire system is out
of keeping with the idea and efficiency
of the commission form of government
they believe
If the legislature this winter approves
of their plan. and the plan as it will
be submitted to other Kansas cities
Topeka next spring will vote for a com
missioner of schools and will abandon
the school board.
Economy to the City of Topeka.
1t is economy and efficiency" ex.
plaIned Mayor Billiard this afternoon.
No that the present school board is not
DONG its duty believe we have as good
d bOdIu OF e0ucaIlOn as the CitV has
elected in its history But it is not up TO
the standard of municipal government
taught US through the commission form
II IS not of the tight business like control
that we have under the new form Tie
members do not spend their time with the
school work-they are not paid for il
The entire management is left to ap-
pointed cOmulittees-and they cannot b.
expected to donate the time and after
ton needed.
1T is my plan to combine this Office
with the office Of commissioner OF finance.
The finance commissioner has an audit
and a city clerk and he could we'll handle
the school board business. OF course Al
matters would be brought before the c1ty
board of commissioners as they are done
from all other departments at this time
In the place Of a clerk of the school
board We could hire a clerk TO work un-
der the finance commissioner here in the
city hall am not sure that we could
save any mopey in the direct maintenance
and mana cement of the offices-but in the
handling of the entire work we could aD-

BE FAIR AND COOL.
That Is Weather Mans Prediction for
Wednesday.

1t is an ideal November day. with
the temperature normal and a clear
sky. Cool and delightfuT' is the
brand of weather that sunny Flora,
the local observer, says will be hand
ed out Wednesday.
At O'Clock this afternoon the
temperature was p degrees below
that of Monday at the same hour.
The shifting of the wind from the
south to the northwest was the cause
of the drop in temperature. The wind
IS blowing at the rate of twelve miles
an hour from the northwest.
The mercury may slip down below
the 40 degree mark by morning, and
the weather Wednesday will be similar
to that being enjoyed today, according
to the forecast.
