NO WATER WAGON CLAUSE.
Murphy's Contracts Say Nothing OF
Athletes Drinking.

Chicago, Jan. 30.-Contrary to the
statement made last fall by Charles w.
Murphy, president of the Chicago Ma
tional league baseball club, contracts
sent his players this year do not con-
tain a water wagon clause.
This became known when one of the
members OF the team exhibited his con-
tract No mention of drinking was
made in the document.
1t was Murphy's declaration that
drink cost the National League team
the pennant last year, that precipitated
the controversy between Frank Chance
and the president of the club. He said
at that time he would enforce a pro-
hibition rule without regard to the rec
ords of the players on his club this
year. Chance always declared there
was no truth in Murphy's statements
that his players drank

WATER FAMINE STOPS CARS.
Light Goes Out When Water in River
Runs Low.

Wichita, Kan, Jan. 30.-Water in
the Little Arkansas river is so low
here that the power plant furnishing
electricity to the city had to shut down
for over an hour. The shutdown took
place while hundreds of people were
going home from the theaters. All
street cars were stopped, street lights
went out and people CROPPED their way
through the streets in darkness. Man
ager H. S. Sladen of the electric COM
pany routed out a lot of men and,
rolling up his trousers, took a shovel
and set the pace digging a big well in
the bed of the Arkansas river to get
water for the boilers. Two hours
work ended the water famine.

NO POWER TO RAISE PRICE.
Gas Question Taken Out of Utilitie.
Commissions Hands.

Kansas City, Jan. 30.-That the
public utilities commission of Kansas
has not the power to increase rates
is the stand that Kansas City, Kansas,
will take in the gas case.
r. J. Higgins, city attorney, filed a
brief with the utilities commission
yesterday in which he differs from
John Marshall, attorney for the com
mission. Mr.. Higgins says that
Mr.. MarshalIs complaint is based on
the assumption that the appointment
of receivers changed the standing of
the company.
He says that Mr. Marshall wholly
misconceiVeS the law" He says the
contracts concerning rates are bind
ing after the receivership the same as
before.

WANT TO Do TOO MUCH WORK
Normal Students Too Ambitious
| President Hill Finds

Emporia, Kan, Jan. 30.-In a great
many schools it is necessary to urge
the students to take enough work. At
the Kansas State Normal school con-
ditions are exactly opposite. Presi-
dent Joseph H. Hill has been forced
to warn the students against over
loading themselves with too many
studies. A student regularly is not
allowed to take more than IS hours
carrying regular work is supposed to
of work in a semester. Every one
take 16 hours including physical
training. Nearly every student in
sists however, in taking the limit Of
Is hours or more if possible.
While this is an indication that the
student is attending the Normal for
business it means also that some stu
dies must be neglected and the idea is
students at the Kansas Normal are
being urged to take less work for the
sake of more thorough study.

SUFFRAGETTES FINED
 AND SENTENCED
Fines Will Be Paid to Prevent Sery. ing Jail Sentences if
 Possible.

London, Feb. 5.-Sylvania Pank- hurst, militant suffragette leader, was sentenced to two weeks impris- onment or fine of ,$10 today. The same punishment was meted out to 19 other women who participated in the raid on the House of Commons under the leadership of General Mrs. Flora Drummond on January 2S.
 On that occasion the women tried to force their way into parliament to obtain an interview with David Lloyd George They were arrested and charged with resisting the police.
 As Mrs. Pankhurst was leaving the police court for the cells today she shouted:
 q shall not serve this sentence"
 This is probably correct, as the leaders of the militants have become til ed of jail, and their fines are now invariably paid by some third party within few hours of their imposi- tiOn.
