DINNER FOR POOR
No One Need Be without Tur-
key Day "Eats.'
Police Matron and Church So
cieties Furnish Food.

No one in Topeka will be without a
good Thanksgiving dinner if Mrs Della
Sare, the police matron knows any
thing about it. She will distribute Il
number of Thanksgiving baskets to-
day which will e filed with eatables
that have been purchased with her
own money A number of dinners will
be distributed by individuals and char
liable and church organizations to
persons whose names were furnished
by Mrs, Sare. Mrs. Sare will distrib-
ute clothing.
There is less restitution in Topeka
than on former occasions. Mrs Sdre
has found it not more than half as
prevalent as at the same time last
year. In almost every instance, the
destitute families are those who have
suffered from prolonged sickness. A
few cases have been reported in which
men have deserted their families but
this is usual condition at this season.
The attention of the police matron
was called to woman with three chill
dren who lives on Oak street. The
youngest child is IL months old and
there are two others aged and 6
years respectively. The husband of
this family disappeared in August and
has not been heard from since Pre-
vious to that time he was employed
in the Santa Fee shops and received
$40 per day. The woman is sick. She
is unable to care for her children and
work enough to support them. Mrs.
Sare has assisted this woman by fur
nishing her with food and a few arti-
cles of winter clothing.
Mrs. Sare will distribute about a
dozen Thanksgiving baskets. Each will
contain a beef roast, bread, Irish and
sweet potatoes, cabbage. apples, cook
les and bananas

The Vaudeville Bill This Week
! PIeases the Crowds.

An evenly balanced and unusually
clever bill is offered this week at the
Novelty as a successor to the attraction
of last week, which was in itself above
the average. Chester's posing dogs,
which are played as top line features,
are~worthy of a place on the vaudeville
stage. and are one of the features of
this weeks show.
Caprice Lewis offers a trapeze act
that is worthy of the Is minute place on
the program. The Wallheiser's Offering
of the Messenger Boy and the Girl''
has collected more applause than any
one feature on the weeks entertain
ment menu. There is a real showing
of life and action to the entire week
program that easily places it on a par
with or a little above the average Nov
eltv fractions.

The announcement made yesterday
by the Daily Sentinel that Rev. E. V.
Huffer had asked for a release from,
mis- contract in order to leave the To-
cal church about August l was heard
all over the city with keen regret
Mr.. Huffer is very popular both in
and out of his church and the dis
sensions which have arisen during
his pastoTare have been regrettable
Rev. Huner has not announced the
name of the city to which he is now
going. but his friends hope that he
will find successful career in his
new home,
The board has as yet made no ef-
fort to secure his successor. 1t is
probable that during the next few
weeks they will extend a call to a
minister and prevent the church from
being without pastor for any great
length of time.
