her plans for visiting the United

EUROPEAN NEWS AND VIEWS

London, Oct. 3.---The situation
In Ireland Is causing a great deal OF
anxiety to the home government.
Everyone acquainted with pu uJlic af-
fairs who has been approached on
the subject admits that there is
trouble ahead, and that 1t Is apt to
re serious. If a separate govern
ment Is to be established by the op-
poncnts Of home rule there, 1t is
predicted that a change in Eng
lands history is impending that may
develop into almost anything. There
is no guarantee that seDarate
State would not be developed; and
there IS every indication that any
movement Of the kird would want
unusual PRIVILEGES. The anti-home
rule leaders, however, declare that
their only purpose IS to have one
kind and one government for all

Home in High Good

Accompanied by loyal band Of
some three hundred rooters, Lake

day afternoon on special train for
Barlow to cross bats with the local
team there. Both teams had won
the same number of games and this
was to be the deciding one, which
resulted in victory for Lakeland,
the score being Z to 0. with Barlow
claiming the goose egg. A better

been picked. and it WAS a pretty

If the boosters special for tho

game they would have received
many valuable point from .he
Lakeland rooters, and with shout OF
encouragement from three hundred

Again in the fifth innin, two runs
were scored on a single by Gar

third baseman.
Lakeland aHded one run In tho
sixth and two more in tho seventh
and then decided they had enough
lead.
Gartow featured some of the pret-
tiest bonehead playing seen around
here in long time, especially in
the eighth inning when Brown,
Seymour and O'Connor watchc. a

them waiting for the other to catch

Gillespie pitched air ti~ht ball and
got four hits out Of four times at the
bat. The special feature OF the gamc
was the all-around work of Cabrera,
Lake'and's second baseman. 1t was
at times difficult to tell whether he
was playing first or second ard the
way he backed up Meharg on first
was nothing short of big league
work.
Brazier figured in a double play

Farmers and Stock Suffering.
With a severe winter, there will be
much suffering in the western cGun-
ties, Crippen says.
''There is not nearly enough rough
feed in our section of the state to care
for the stock this winter" said Grip
cattle will suffer unless it is an I'M
usually mild winter. Many of the
farmers are in but little better condi
ton. This year there was virtually
a complete crop failure. In 1911 and
1912, the crops were short. Last year
the horse plague meant the loss of
hundreds of thousands of dollars to
the western farmers. Do you wonder
they are discouraged ?"
Special Session Doubtful.
Yet, regardless of conditions in
western Kansas as Crippen paints
them, there is little indication that
there will be a special session. In the
first place, there is no money in the
state treasury which can be used for
that purpose. The state administra-
ton is reconciling itself to the prob
able necessity of an increase in the
state tax levy next year and special
sessions of the legislature are always
expensive and difficult to defend in ell
suing campaigns. Governor Hodges
refused to become agitated when Sem
ator Mcmillan wanted a special ses-
sion and he has on several occasions
declared that dry weather conditions
in Kansas this year were but little
worse than in 1911 and hardly equal
to those of 1901. And there were no
special sessions then.

JAIL DELIVERY AT MANHATTAN
Three Prisoners Pick Lock and Cut
Hole in Roof.

Manhattan. Kan. Sept. 9.-Three
prisoners picked the lock and after
cutting a hole through the roof with
an axe escaped from the Riley coun-
~ Jail here Sunday night. They were
Jack Allen, charged with grand lar
ceny; James Hickman. a bootlegger,
and Rafael Garcia, Mexican, who
was unable to pay his fine for dis
turbing the peace.
Their escape was discovered quick
" by Sheriff Schermerhorn, but no
trace of them had been gained up to
O'Clock last night. 1t is believed
that the axe was passed through the
Jail window by some friend of the
prisoners.
Allen was one of the men caught
at Paxfco Saturday and was charged
with having robbed the Halstead &
Manshaddt clothing store here Friday
night of $500 worth of goods. His
partner, Glen Masters. who was ar
rested at the same time, was separat-
ed from Allen here and placed in the
