The new lead is found in "dona

changed and J. !. Mcnamara, with a
fund OF slp0U month. for which he

II is also pointed out that another
advantage 10 the new system was that
by using the same dynamiters all the
time instead OF hiring local men %

would be fewer men who might

PLAN FAST CANES
Semi-PrO Baseball to Be Played
at Garfield.
Old Topeka Midget Team Will
Be ReOrganized.

Plans for the reorganization of the
old Topeka Midgets baseball team,
the building of a new ball park at
Garfield park this summer and the
esta bIishing of fast semi professional
baseball in Topeka are now being
made. The details are expected to
be worked out in a short time and
further announcements will be made

The old Topeka Midget club was
one of the fastest semi-pro organ1za-
tions in Kansas, if not in this section.
They made a wonderful reputation
during the three seasons they played
and one year toured the state, win
ming most of the games played. after
having played winning ball in To-
Deka during the summer. An effort
will be made to get all of the old play
ers back on the team Some new
blood will be added, especially in case
some of the older men are retlcent
about re-entering the pasJime.
The new park will be built on the
location used by the old team in Gar
field park. It will lie just east and
south of the figure s. Grandstand
and bleachers will be erected. As
Garfield is to be the amusement park
this wear the crowds which will at
tend games there should be large.
The management of the Midgets
wants to bring fast out of town teams
here for games. H. e. Rigby, 612
Kansas avenue, and former manager
of the Midgets, is manager this year.

the cruel interference of the law, the
blissful anticipation of a young couple
from Florence came to an abrupt END
at the Harvey county court house Roy
Gillet of Peabody, and Miss Hester s.
Clark of Florence, loved each other
dearly. and decided that they could
not live without each other. The
father of the young intended bride,
however, interposed the usual objec-
lions.
The young people decided to elope.
They came to Newton on a Santa Fe
train. They were at the court house
door when the probate judge went to
his Office, and could hardly wait for
the official to unlock his safe before
making their business known. In the
meantime the father, aforesaid, had
missed his daughter, and wired to the
sheriff at Newton, as well as elsewhere.
The result was, that just as the judge
was afhxing his seal to the marriage
license, the sheriff walked in and
stopped proceedings and placed the
young couple under the custody of his
officer. Later the father arrived and
informed the court tht the evidence

Recently Mrs. Barker took her trou-

if he would provide for the family $

navments in accordance with the
agreement. Now she wants divorce,
