At the Novelty.

There is variety at the Novelty thea

A three round prize fight between
Jeffrfes and Johnson-two cats-was

playing the prohibition Rag" An
auburn haired child stepped out in
one of the aisles and began to dance
to the time of the rag. Half of the
audience on the main floor rose. Just

AT The PLAY.

| In a play that had no dull moments,
Adelaide Thurston returned to Topeka
| Monday night to pay another visit to
| her Kansas admirers. And just why
Adelaide Thurston played to a small
/ audience in a play with life and mo-
ton and class and why Valeska Suratt,
with her uncertain music and noise,
drew S. r. o. sign in the uoxoffice,
is one of the many puzzles that brings
grey hairs to theatrical managers.
If Adelaide Thurstons former offer
ings came as a triumph among a one
night Kansas constituency, her posi-
ton as an artist was not lowered Mon
day night among the little crowd that
decorated spots in the dress circle and
paid 81 to see 1.-The Love Affair.
For in her 1913 offering Miss Thurston
has given the public about everything
that can be asked in the comedy col
umn.
THE Love Affair." is full of clever
lines. Monday night it was handed
across the footlights by Miss Thurston
and Il company against which no in
dictments could be returned. Usually
in "a comedy role there is some portion
of the play which lags and gives an
opening wedge for the theatrical critics.
But when 1.-The Love Affair was
staged, it's inanimate portions were re-
moved and amputated a ia Bale
WdSSSneT anu no pegs were lSIl Oh
which the theater goer could hang his

Adelaide Thurston infused in every
minute of her time on the stage-and
she was on the stage most of the time

while Mary Davis Martha Hewitt and
Edward Delaney rs Neil Wyman, arose
above serious criticism and gave
thorough satisfaction.
But it was light house and for one
of the best comedies of the Grand's
season in the face of record houses
for companies with inferior class. All
of which causes theatrical managers
to stop and ponder in the selection of
the really good ones. A. L. S.

Kansas will have fire marshal I'M
der the Hodges administration. Fol-
lowing the action of the senate in
passing a fire marshal bill, the house
put through a similar measure in its
bulk roll call, when it substituted the
Carroll bill for the senate measure.
The Carroll bill is identical with the
provisions of the senate bill, except for
a few slight senate amendments to
which the house will probably agree
to concur
Under the terms of the fire marshal
law, the new department is self sup
porting and in fact will probably pay
a small dividend to the state from the
fees received from the fire insurance
companies doing business in Kansas.
The bill provides that the fire marshal
shall receive a salary OF $4,000 a year.
Creation of this office was endorsed
by the insurance representatives of
many insurance companies, who be-
lieye that the establishment of this
office in Kansas will greatly lessen the
fire losses from incendiary origin.

She ASKED HELP
Mrs. Eaton Alleged Admiral
Was Insane.
Letter Written to Lawyer in
1911 Made Public.

Chicago. March 22.-The nature of the
relations between Rear Admiral Eaton
and his wife, charged with his muir
der, became known here in letter
written by Mrs. Eaton March Is, 1911
to Marshall E. Gallon, an attorney,
who acted for her in her divorce pro-
ceedings against her first husband,
Daniel Henry Ainsworth, in 1906.
The letter written from Assin1ppl,
Mass, says:
1.-THE condition of this poor man is
dreadful and 1 fear to stay here this
winter. My leaving him alone with
my mother while 1 was in Chicago
made him wild. If I had doubt OF
his insanity, which L never had, it
would be removed quickly, as he is SO
much worse
He is a sick, helpless and sad OH
man, and it goes to my heart He re-
lies on me entirely. I am his eyes,
brains and life and still how can l
stay here alone and let him kill me
and poor little innocent Dorothy, and
he will do it and then wonder where
we are He is the most dangerous,
subtle maniac. and still I have no way
of escape
Public opinion, his rank, his age
and the navy are all against me. All
doctors are too diplomatic and afraid
to attempt to deal with him as he
should be dealt with and it will cost
me hundreds of dollars to get evidence
and take a year at least to get it in
shape and then 1 probably will be out
witted by sentiment and pity
He is the most dangerous man you
could meet any place Please help me;
what shall 1 do? What do you advise
me as the most practical? After Fri
day 1 shall be here alone with him.
Is it wise? He is so subtle and sly;
would you get a common, cheap wo-
man just to have someone with me?
OF course, such a person would not
be able to detect his trouble, only a
person drilled to brain trouble or IA
Iniliar with insanity.
IF he is as dangerous as 1 believe.
must protect my life, so find out
whether you can get me a woman
who is a Sherlock Holmes in criminal
insanity and of highest moral char
acter and high standing with doctors
and alienists, one whose word would
GO If she said he was insane they
would do the rest. Please see what
you can do for me and advise me-"

BANDITS CAPTURED.
Auto in Which They Are Fleeing
Crashes Into Building.

New York. March 22.-HoIdup men
who tried to escape in a taxicab after
robbing an East side cafe this morn
ing were captured by the police when
the machine crashed into a building
amid Volley of revolver shots. With
the recent arrest of dozen motor car
bandits the police believed they had
brought an end to the city's newest
crime sensation. The robbery this
morning apparently supplied the first
intimation that several gangs of auto
mobile highwaymen have been at
work.
The bartender was held up at the
point of reVolvers by five men who
arrived in machine. A sixth man
remained in the car when the men
ran out after robbing the cash regis
ter and made off in their machine
The alarm was given, and there was
an exchange of shots as a patrolman
gave chase on foot. The cab swung
around a corner. Another policeman
stepped into it's path, firing at the
swaying car. Shots from the cab
passed through his uniform. At this
moment it swerved into a building and
was wrecked. Two of the six men
escaped

SHORT COURSE ENDS.
Six Months Students Are Leaving
Agricultural College.

Manhattan, Kan. March 22.-The
short course students-375 of them
are leaving the Agricultural college
this week. Most of them have been
here for six months. Others have had
about eleven weeks instruction in the
more important departments of farm
ing. One hundred and sixty-seven girls
have had housekeeping and domestic
art. The hats and dresses these girls
have learned to make were shown in
the domestic science building Wednes-
day. No hat cost more than so and
no dress more than $40. The materials
ranged all the way from prints to satin
and chiffon.
The departure of the short course
students leaves places for rural school
teachers to enter the Agricultural COL
lege for spring term work The end
of the seven months period the min
imum prescribed by law, means that
many teachers will have a vacation be-
ginning very early in April. These
teachers will have a chance to take
several courses in agriculture at the
college, and thereby fit themselves for
positions paying higher salaries in the
school system of the state. They will
have an opportunity also to see farm
work on the big state farm and instruc-
tionaI privilege that will be missed by
teachers coming later in the summer.

Kansas City, March 22.-Surgeons
high in their profession from half a

The present operation began January
10 last. at which time the young
woman's left ring finger was split
celluloid pieces inserted and the process
of molding nose started. February
B, the finger still attached to the hand,
was placed in the position of the nose
Until today it has been held in that
position by q plaster cast.
The final step came today when the
finger was severed from the hand.
Surgeons said there was every indica-
ton that the operation was a COM
plete success and that only a slight
scar would remain.
All that remains now is the final
shaping of the nose in a caste. The
bone and flesh of the finger up to the
second joint form the ridge of the nose;
the second joint forms the tip and the
remainder of the bone forms the sup
port between the nostrils
DR.. E. G. Blair, who performed the
operation, said this was the first time
the operation had been performed and
nostrils retained. An operation similar
save that there were no nostrils, was
performed in the Presbyterian hospital
in New York a few weeks ago.

FARMING REVIVED.
Meeting Held to Promote Industry in
Orcharding.

Manhattan, Kan, March 22.-There
was revival at Seneca one day last
week. And although the revival was
conducted on the parish farm of ST.
Benedicts and the Rev. P. Cyril Bayer
had a prominent part in it, the OBJ
ject was not for religious converts;
rather for converts to the idea of
better orcharding. George o. Greene,
horticultural specialist with the extern
sion division of the Kansas Agricul-
tural college, using the parish orchard
for his demonstrations, showed some
eighty farmers of that vicinity how to
prune apples, pears, peaches ana
grapes. He also identified and gave
the life histories of several kinds of
insects injurious to orchards Then
he described and told how to COM
bat the principal orchard diseases.
The demonstration at St Benedicts
was only one of many to be conduct
ed by Mr.. Greene and Fred Merrill for
the college this spring. These are the
towns in the vicinity of which dem

Sure Way to Remove
Freckles and Eruptions.
(From Fashion Record.l

Some women have skin of such texture
they occasionally are annoyed by the
sudden appearance of freckles, slight
erupdons or fine lines. March winds
usually play havoc with skins of that
kind. In such cases if one will procure
an ounce of common mercolized wax
at any drugstore, apply this before re-
firing. like cold cream, she can easily
overcome the trouble. When the wax is
washed off next morning, flaky skin par
t1cles come with it. The entire cuticle
is removed in this way in about week,
with all it's defects. No bleach could so
completely remove every freckle or blem-
fresh looking. No pain or inconvenience
accompanies this simple treatment.
In case of wrinkles which sink beneath
the outer skin. a solution of saxolite,
o., dissolved in k-pt. witch hazel makes
a face bath which is wonderfully eff
ective.-Adv
