FOR kkW VALLEY.
Government Sees Apple Growing Pos
~ sibilities Near Topeka.

The department Of. agriculture at
Washington will send an expert to the
Kaw valley to investigate the apple
growing business in this part Of the
state. The plan is to try and find q
spot where apple seedlings can be
grown in this country instead of inn
porting the greater number from
France.
This announcement came through
an address made by George M. Dar-
row, a federal expert, VINO talked be-
fore the State Horticulture society.
While here he visited a large number
of nurseries and orchard farms near
Topeka. Mr.. Darrow is Of the belief
that the main difficulty in the matter
of securing good apple seeds is the
cider press Of America. The Ameri-
can press crushes the apple to such
an extent that the seeds are practical
ly worthless and cannot be used sue
cessfully In France the cider press is
more intricate and no damage is done
to the seeds. Consequently many
thousand dollars are sent abroad dur
ing the seeding periods. The federal
expert will ascertain if the Kaw val
ley fruit lands cannot be made to de-
velop the same class Of seeds as Eu-
rope can.

Topeka LOOKS GOOD.
and Heath With Big Com
pany are Back Again.

This doesn't look like the same place
We stepped into back in the eighties,
does it, Tom?" Mr.. Mcintyre asked his
stage partner this morning as they left
their special train at the Rock Island
depot.
TT is the same place all right but
I don't see any blind tigers They tell
me the place is dry now." Mr.. Heath
answered.
AS the conversation progressed the
other members of the Ham Tree COM
pany crowded out of the cars and soon
the two musical comedy stars were al
most smothered in the crowd. There
are more than one hundred members
in the big company which will stage
the largest theatrical production of the
season at the Grant theater tonight.
Besides the big company a regiment OF
men is required to get the scenery ana
stage effects from the train to the
theater. 1t takes one baggage car ana
two scenery cars to carry the stage set
tings and costumes for the Ham Tree.
= John Cort, the producer. has gath
cred together the classiest bunch OF
chorus girls for the Ham Tree that has
been in Topeka in many years. The
critics style the aggregation as the
best dancing chorus in the business
This opinion has been almost universal.
Mcintyre and Heath have been stage
partners for forty years and during
that time they have made thousands
and thousands of people laugh. They
are just as funny now as they were
when they first started. In negro i'm
presentations they have no peers on the
American stage These two comedians
surrounded by a company OF 100 per-
sons make up one of the best musical
comedies that has ever been presented
at the Grand theater.
The coming of Mcintyre and Heath
to Topeka is just as much an event as
Sothern and NARROW in revival OF
Shakespeare. The only difference IS
that the .wo negro stars do their work
in the popular comedy line while the
famous Shakespearian stars keep to
the. classics. The Ham Tree company
comes here direct from weeks run
in Kansas City where capacity crowds
greeted the show at every one or the
eight performances.
The mail order business for this pro-
duction has been heavy but Manager
Jack Truitt said this morning that
there were some good seats left. by
& o'clock tonight the management ex-
poets to have every seat In the theater
sold. such Is the demand.

, ALL FOR A TOOTH
Fire and Police Departments
Called Out Sunday.
Dentists Ether Craxed ]. w.
King of Elmont, Kan.

The toothache of J. W. King OF Ell
mont not only caused himself consid-
erable Inconvenience yesterday after
noon. but resulted in the police and fire
departments of the city being called
out, the putting to night of swo physi-
clans and several Of their attendants,
and some hair-raising thrills for a large
crowd of spectators.
The Elmont man went to the office
OF Dr. A. M. Putnam. on the seventh
floor of the Mills building, to receive
to give him ether, although King in
sisted. it is said. that the ether would
make him crazy. DR.. w. M. Mills,
whose office is on the sixth floor Of the
building, was called to assist. The man
took three whiffs of the fumes and then
things began to happen. They began
happening so fast that a complete and
perfect record of the events in sequen-
tial order Is out of the question.
That King suddenly became mentally
unbalanced Is one thing about which
there seems to be no doubt. He got
the idea that persons in the room were
attempting to cut his throat. There
was a struggle and he broke away and
began fighting. One spectator says that
DR.. Putnam and DIR. Mills retreated
behind door and locked 1t. This spec
tator also says that the water cooler
in the hall was overturned and there
were things flying"
At any rate King. still wild with In
sane fear, took to the top fire escape
at the rear of the Mills building. From
his position, seven stories up in the
air, he flourished q towel and shouted
Fire. murder. help" Someone turned
in a fire alarm. Tho department re-
sponded and a line Of hose was laid.
while the coatless man continued his
wild antics and a crowd gathered.
The man descended the top night of
the fire escape, but stopped at the sixth
floor. Then he got the idea that some
one had called him vile name. He
was nghting mad A fireman attracted
his attention, and he hurled a chunk
of iron at him. He missed his mark.
kicked In a pane Of glass and hurled
piece at the crowd below. Several fire.
men rushed up the fire escape and over
powered King. just as he was hurting
another piece OF glass. He was taken
through the window he had smashed,
and into the Mills building. and down
the elevator, where he was turned over
to the police.
II am not crazy" he continued to ex-
plain. TT is only gas. 1 told them
would go crazy If they gave me gas.
Three men were trying to cut my
throat"
King was taken to the county Jail
in the police court automobile, but was
not locked up. as he recovered himself
after a short time in the open car. He
had been troubled with the tooth for
some time and was in physically ex-
hausted condition. Harry Beeler, Kings
son-in-law, accompanied him to the
doctors office and remained with him
at the county Jail until he had recov-
cred himself. King received a s1gnt
cut on the hand. in breaking the WIN
