The wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. North

FEAR NO PLAGUE
Scientists of Kansas University
Say Tt Was Fungus Growth.
Killed Many Horses, but Won't
Repeat This Year.

Lawrence, Kan, Sept. 30-That re-
currence of the Kansas horse plague
of last year will be Impossible until
the same weather condition of Excess
sive moisture and humidity, accompan-
led by high temperature are repeat
ed is the belief of University of Kansas
scientists expressed in a report issued
today. The conclusion reached by the
university Investigators that the els
ease was forage poisoning and was rot
conta gious received the endorsement of
the United States bureau of animal in
dustry the Fort Leavenworth vete-i-
nary surgeon and the faculty of the
Kansas City veterinary college.
The cause of this disease is asso
ciated with molds and parasitic fungi
growing on grains and other vegeta
tion, says the report.
1T occurred only among horses graz
ing in pastures. fed upon late cut, I'M
properly cured forage. One attack OF
the disease does not immunize the sub
ject against a second attack. Drugs
and specifics have proven practically
worthless and in some cases positively
harmful, while under the guise IF the
word vaccine commercial prepara-
tons. some of which have proven to he
positively harmful, have been promul-
gated and sold at large prices
preventive treatment. through the
exercise of proper care in feeding only
pure water, well cured forage and grain
in limited quantities during the period
of the outbreak. is the only proven
means of dealing with the disease.
Where these precautions have been
carefully needed this sickness among
horses has eaSed.''

THE new Chief POLICE
Who Will Land PIace-City Hall
Neutrality-suspicious. Is Silent.

Who will be the next chief of po-
lice?
If anyone knows, it is Mayor Cof-
ran, and he is not telling. Not only
is he not telling, but he is also not
worrying.
Have not come to any conclusion,
and do not know when I will. Things
are running very nicely down at po-
lice headquarters just as they are
said the mayor this morning.
But while Mayor Cofran is not
worrying. others are. At least they
are getting interested. 1t is reported
that the unions in the city would like
to have a voice in the appointment of
a new chief. Then, too, there are
friends of several receptive candi-
dates, who are doing little quiet
milling around. The woman's adj
visory board promises to take hand.
1t is the business of the board to get
busy in such a case and they intend to.
Yes, we intend to give the matter
consideration. There will be a meet
ing of the board to consider the mat
ter but [ do not know just when
said Mrs. Lila Day Monroe this
morning. Just now l am too busy
getting ready to acquire a daughter
to have anything else in mind am
packing up to go to Mcpherson today
for my sons wedding"
Mrs. E. E. Roudebush, secretary of
the board, was asked when meeting
would be held and said that the time
had not been decided upon, but would
be soon. Asked if the board was con-
sidering the recommendation of a
woman for chief of police, she was
emphatic in saying they were not.
She said the members of the board
would probably call on Mayor Cofran
in few days
Mrs. J. d. Mcfarland was equally
emphatic in saying the members of
the board were not considering a,
woman for chief of police. we have
not had time to consider the matter.
The resignation of Chief Hughes was
a surprise to u.s. Mrs. Mcfarland
said, and added that so far as she
knew the members of the board had
no particular person under considera-
ton for recommendation to the mayor,
but would take the matter up, If the
MAYOR allowed them time.
In addition to Sergeant Joe Ross,
those whose names are being men,
toned in connection with the appoint
ment are Sergeant Carl Golf eX-Chief
Tim Donovan and ex-Chief Frank NJ.
Stahl Sergeant Carl Golf visited the
MAYOR Yesterday afternoon. Very
few predictions are being made as to
whom the mayor will appoint, because
the mayor has the reputation for in
and doing things on his
own hook There was only one man
in the city hall today willing to make
a forecast. He picked Carl Golf as
the mayors choice. Golf has had
wears of experience, all the way from
aIking a beat to being head of the !
department.

Cottonwood Falls, Kan, Sept. 30
The Carnegie Land & Cattle company
of Pennsylvania came clear to Kan
sas last week to buy thorough bred
stock for their farm. They purchased
the entire herd, consisting of fifty-siX
head, of George Topping, one of the
best known breeders of Shorthorn
cattle of this country, besides buying
a small herd of the best Shorthorn
COWS from the w. J. Sayre herd, a
neighboring thoroughbred stock rails
err. The sum which the Pennsylvania
company paid for the live stock has
not been made public, but it is said
to be one of the largest single deals
ever made for thoroughbred cattle
from a Chase county breeder. The
stock will be shipped from Cedar
Point to Pennsylvania on October 1
or 2, where they will be used exc1u-
sively for breeding purposes on the
Carnegie ranch.
