at the high school were never brighter,
according to c. H. Hepworth, director
of athletics. Elmer Stahl, who was a

of the university reads:
1.-The fish and game warden shall
be under the supervision OF the re-
gents of the university.
When the warden desired to buy land
for a new hatchery the whole PROPOSE

gents. After the regents decided upon
the matter it became necessary to have
the land condemned. Mr.. j. E. Guyer
of Stafford. Mr.. H. S. Thompson of Syl-

were the members of the board who
purchas ed the land either by condem-
nation or agreement with the parties
who owned it. After the land was Sc

A special committee of the regents
consisting of Mr.. r. A. Edward of Cas-

Mr.. James A. Kimball of Salina were
appointed to advise with the warden

No money was paid out on any voucher
for any kind of permanent improve

SO. These were among the notable in
creases. There was an increase at the
Parkdale school on account of the adj
dition of a grade.
The enrolment at the high school
was 1850 as against 1,160 last year at
the close of the opening day. The sub
freshmen class is the largest in the
history of the school, although the ex-
act number of those that had enrolled
in that class was not available today.
SiXty-six of those who expressed their
intention of enrolling in the school for
the first time did not report on Tues
day. The total enrolment in the class
may prove to be as high as three hun
dred and fifty.
According to the principal, A. j.
Stout, approximately a sixth of the pu-
pills hail from outside of Topeka. Not
few of them have come from long
distances.
On account of the increase in attend
ance a crowded condition exists in sew
eral departments. Not more than two
thirds of the students can crowd into
the assembly room in the main build
ing. For that reason it will be an i'm
possibility to get the entire student
body together at any one time.
The enrolment in the city schools
will be increased by several hundred
in the next month. Many of the chill
dren have not returned from their sum-
mer vacation trips. The total attend
ance for the school year is expected to
go far beyond the 5000 mark

BOMB FOR OTIS.

newspaper plant had been destroyed
through the efforts of the Mcnamara
conspirators.
This second attempt on his life was
attributed by the general to agencies
friendly to those who caused the de-
struction of his newspaper plant and
the killing of twenty-one men three
years ago. Police and postal authori-
ties believed something might be de-
veloped from the theory that the Mex
lean question had a part In 1T.
General Otis is heavily interested in
lands in the Mexican territory of Low
er California where two years ago In
dustial Workers of the World Joined
the direct action element of Mexi-
cans in an effort to establish a Social
list commonwealth.
A few weeks ago there was an out
break, caused, according to reports, by
the employment of Chinese in the
places of Mexican laborerS by ranchers
in Lower California, but General Otis
asserted at the time that none was en-
ployed by him.
The bomb reached 1.-THE Bivouac,"
General Otis's home, in a small pack
age, about five inches long, three inches
wide and two inches deep. 1t was
wrapped in brown paper and bore Gen.
eral Otis's address written in what was
believed to be a disguised hand.
With other mail, it was given by the
postman to the Japanese servant, who
removed the wrapping paper before
taking 1T to the general, who was writ
ing in an upper room of his residence.
He told the general that he thought
there was something suspicious about
the package.
Il pooh-hoohed the boys belief at
first" said General Otis, but exam
mined the box carefully. I could see
parts of matches and black powder I
had the boy remove the thing and
asked the police department to send
man to my home"
When a powder expert in the police
department pried open the box he
found matches fixed to the inside of the
box in such a way that if it were
opened in the usual way they would
have rubbed against pieces of sand pa
per and ignited. There was also black
powder. a small section of fuse, two
Illuminating caps and two sticks of So
per cent dynamite.
The wrapptngs were given over to the
postoffice inspectors, who began an in
vestigation.

believes that the 1915 legislature wit
amend the law and place the expendi-
ture of the money in the hands of the
township boards.
Much good will result from the state
automobile license fund, Sessions be-
lieves, if the making of good roads is
properly managed by the various
boards. But to satisfy the motor cal
owners, the county commissioners are
compelled to mix good judgment, tacl
and diplomacy with the expenditure OF
Already jealousy has been created
in several counties because of the
manner in which the money is spent
Invariably, the smaller towns seem tic
feel that the county seats are getting
the greatest benefits from the fund and
they are beginning to send their COM
plants to the state house. Then, toe,
there are complaints that certain
roads and highways are being favored
by the commissioners and that this
policy results in the detriment to other
roads and localities.
OF course, it isn't possible for the
county commissioners to outline their
road campaign in a day or a month
and Sessions believes that it is too
early to criticise the county officials.
But a word of warning will probably
be sent to these officials, urging them
to make as nearly as possible an equal
distribution of the fund to the locali-
ties in which the licensed cars are
owned.
May Change Law.
''Cnless something is done and the
car owners are satisfied with the man
ner in which the money is spent" said
Sessions, II am confident that the next
legislature will be asked to change the
present law and put the spending of
this money in the hands of the town
ship boards That would compl1cate
matters more than ever and believe
that the present system is the best if
properly handled"
Kansas dirt roads are the very best
in the country, Sessions says, and with
proper care this state will soon have
within her borders some of the best
highways in any of the states. Re
Gently Sessions made an autom obile
trip from Topeka to Minnesota and re-
turned home in his car this week. So
he knows something of highways in
other states.
There is no reason to find fault
with the roads in Kansas, said SEES
sions, land the motorists feel mighty
good when they leave the Missouri
roads and hit the excellent dirt high
ways in this state. There are no bet
ter dirt roads in the country than
those in this state and with the money
from the state automobile license fund
they will be made even better. But
care and caution must be used by the
county commissioners in spending this
fund and an effort must be made to
avoid jealousy and community strife. -
