BEATS THE GOVERNOR
Texas Woman Obtains Appropriation
for the Alamo.

Austin, Tex. July 26.-Mrs- Clara
Driscon Sewer of New York came to
Austin three weeks ago and succeed
ed in euchering Governor Colquitt of
Texas by successfully handling his
own state legislature to his undoing
The issue between the two is of long
standing. For several years past Mrs
Sewer, as president of the Texas
Daughters of the Republic, has sought
to secure possession of the historical
ruins of the Alamo at San Antonio
which played such an important part
in early Texas history. with a view
of perpetuating its physical presence
and memory for future generations by
erecting a memorial monument and
park.
Governor Colquitt wants to restore
the old Alamo and Notifications in
its crude state of over half a century
ago. The legislature refused his re-
quest for an appropriation for that
purpose, and instead voted $1,000 to
Mrs. Sewers association. s. --43-s

today at daybreak. Companies from
Big Rapids Grand Haven and Muske-
gon comprising, the first battalion of
the Second regiment of infantry, reach
ed the copper country early and special
trains carrying troops from the Lower
peninsula followed at intervals of a
few hours. The men from the southern
sections of the state met a chilly re-
ception, fine driZZle mixed with Lake
Superior fog, greeting the troops and
keeping them huddled in pup tents ana
swathed in oVercoats and blankets The
rain failed to dampen the enthusiasm
of the strikers, the delegation of strik-
ers appearing in Calumet from local
tiles north of here before the troops
had finished break The mine

climate paid little attention to the Gle
ments, but there were no early MORN

This was to have been payday at the
Baltic mine on the south range, the

20 days of July preceding the strike
The company clerks, however were not
at their posts. having been driven
away from the mine offices late yes
terday while they were comple1 ing
work on the pay roll.
Mine officials said the "outsi1ers"
who are alleged to be directing the
parade feature of the strike, evidently
made a mistake in this instance.

AT THE PRISON DOOR.
FIenniken With Warrants Awaits the
Release of Three Prisoners.

Three men walk out of the federal
penitentiary today. Three men will
walk back again. This is a busy day
for B. F. F1enniken, deputy United
States marshal. He left for Leaven-
worth this morning. He has in his
pocket warrants for the rearrest of
three men. Bill Black, James Hamil-
ton and Charles Stevens will march
out of prison in high hopes. Their
faces will fall as Deputy Flenniken
quietly displays his warrants for their
rearrest.
The government has been waiting
for Billy Black for five years. He
was indicted in 1908 for robbing the
postoffice at Bucklin. James J. Ham
ilton, serving a term for postoffice
robbery, is wanted again for violating
the postal laws in Missouri. Charles

AN OLD CONVICT SHIP.
"Success," Built in 1890 b. British, to
Be Exhibited at Panama Exposition.

The convict ship Success which
was brought to this country last fall
and sto be exhibited at the Panama
and is to be exhibited, is, SO far as is
known, the oldest ship still in COM
mission, and is one of the last relics
of the Old-time convict system in
which torture played a leading part.
This ship was built at Mooulmain,
British India, in 1890, is of the old
East Indiaman type and carries an
armament of seven brass guns. The
vessel carries the same equipment as
it did when it was used as a convict
ship. including implements of torture,
while wax figures appear in all the
cells, representing the prisoners who
occupied them many years ago.
AS relic of bygone ideals and
methods the ship is exceedingly inter-
esting. Prior to 1920 there were 145
offenses for which the penalty was
death, under the British laws. Now
there are only two, murder and treas
on. Convict ships were used not only
for transporting prisoners, but were
used as prisons as well, and it often
happened that convict spent the re-
lnainder of his days on one ship.
Down in the hold of the Success"
is the torture chamber containing the
"bilboes," or neck1ets, where prison.
ers were lacked up against beam by
rings passing around the neck and
the ankles. The constrained and
painful position caused by the bill
boes," combined with the darkness of
the hold and the rolling and pitching
of the sailing vessel, usually served
to break the spirit of the most refrac-
tory prisoner. The Iron maiden" was
used to eXtort confessions. 1t is lined
with spikes. The prisoner was placed
inside. the door was closed and fas-
tened. and the prisoner remained in
the iron maiden until he confessed
his guilt or died of exhaustion, or of
wounds inflicted by the spikes.
The voyage of the vessel from Aus
tralia to London and, more recently,
the voyage to this country, demon
strated it's splendid sea-gOing qualities.
The original mainmast is as sound IS
ever. On one side of the vessel is an
indentation made by cannon ball
which was fired by terrified guard
at Calcutta over 80 years ago. After
completing a voyage around the world.
the Success will be taken out to sea
and sunk.-Popular Mechanics.

TAX BOARD in SESSION
Hearing Application of Kansas South
western for Reduction.

A hearing before the state tax COM
mission was held this morning on the
application of the Kansas Southwest
ern for a decrease in it's taxes. The
roal in question was granted permits
sion to increase its passenger rates to
cents a mile recently. Application
for permission to advance freight rates
is pending.
The road is owned Jointly by the
Frisco and Santa Fe. Expenditures
of about $4,000 in repairs and i'm
provement are to be made soon. The
road has been losing money. In case
the application to decrease the taxes
is allowed it is believed likely that the
application for permission to increase
freight rates will not be pressed

TEN THOUSAND A YEAR
Apparently That is What Negro Makes
Serving Sentence.

Leavenworth. July 26-Dressed in an ex-
pensive suit of clothes made in the prison
tailor shop. of goods he had purchased
when he knew he was to be released
Charles Stevens, alias Charles Savage, the
negro convicted at Kansas City five years
ago of $4,000 mail pouch robbery, step
ped from the federal prison this afternoon
free man. He was met outside the
prison, however by Deputy United States
Marshal Flenniken, of Topeka. who i'm
mediately arrested him on the specific
charge of cutting open mail sack. A
Leavenworth banker furnished s2,O bond
and Stevens and his attorney went to the
latter'S office The mail pouch was taken
from a car at the Kansas City, union de-
pot. Stevens was convicted on six counts
and sentenced to five years on each. The
order for his release issued several
weeks ago by Judge Sanborn of the fed
eral court of appeals on the grounds that
Stevens had been convicted on six counts
when he should have been tried on but
one.
The $4,000 was never recovered. The be
lief is that the negro concealed it and has
it still hidden.

TO RING
Electric Light Plant Will Sup

Creamery Whistle Stopped Ow-
ing to Objections.

All attempts to curb the curfew have
failed. 1t hasn't blown for two nights,
but it will toot tonight. Mayor Cofran
says so. KiGdies trotting about at 3
this evening will hear a shrill whistle
and scuttle for home.
Municipal authorities persuaded the
Continental Creamery to blow the cur
few. Citizens living near Second and
Polk streets rebelled. Last Wednesday
they said, "Curfew shall not ring to-
night''-and it didn't The whistle
sounded like the doomsday call. 1t
reused grandpa from his slumber, ana
woke baby from his sleep. Tired moth
ers rocked their infants to sleep at (
and then again at 9. Baby shrieks
followed the shrek of the curfew like
an echo We can't stand this said
the weary fathers.
So the Continental creamery said 1t
would like to oblige the mayor, but II
really couldn't toot the curfew any
longer The mayor looked about for
another whistle. He wanted one that
could be heard in Seabrook, Potwin
and Highland Park.
THE city electric light station at
Second and Adams streets will blow the

morning land for few nights longer
We haven't had a curfew for two
nights. We're trying to make arrange

near the creamery objected to the
knocking bird whistle. What do you
think of that ~

HE WILL NOT run
Arthur Capper Not a Candi-
date for Governor.
But He Is Strong for Progress
Sive Principles.

Arthur Capper left this afternoon for
a six weeks vacation at Falmouth
Heights. Mass. Mrs. Capper accom-
panied him.
Just before his departure, a State
Journal reporter called on Mr.. Capper
to see whether he is wearing the Bull
Moose badge on this trip or is simply
pricking up his ears to learn which
way the wind is blowing.
A sandyheaded gentleman from Law
and a possible aspirant for preslden-
tial nomination, told Washington cor
respondents two weeks ago that the
ticket of the Progressive party In Kan
sas would be headed next year by Br1s-
tow for senator and Capper for COVER
nor.
In reply to the State Journal re-
porters question, Mr.. Capper said:
L have no intention at this time OF
becoming a candidate for governor
next year or any other year on the
Progressive or any other ticket. L am
just as intensely interested as ever in
seeing thoroughly progressive princl-
pies established in our state govern
ment and am willing to make any
personal sacrifice to that end, but L
do not think it at all necessary that L
should again be a candidate.
THE people of Kansas. busy right
now caring for bountiful harvest, are
doing very little talking about poll
tics; but they are thinking a lot. They
are not asleep. Just how they will line
up next year is difficult to say, but
this thing is certain: There will be
more independent voting in Kansas
than ever before. The party whip has
lost it's sting and the claptrap appeal
to old time prejudices has lost its force.
Furthermore, no candidate-no matter
under what party label his name ap-
pears-can hope to be successful in
this state next year unless he be gen.
timely progressive. And his credentials
to progressiveism must rest upon his
record and not upon vague promises or
claims. Sham reforms demagoguery
and cheap politics will not avail
