Walnut Grove. Pacing Stallion, Back
in Topeka.

Walnut Grove, a black pacing stall
lion owned by G. c. Wegele of Topeka,
was brought back to Topeka Monday,
bringing with him the honor of being
the fastest stallion in Kansas at the
present time having taken at record at
Lexington, KY, in 2:05A.
Walnut Grove was the champion
four-year-old stallion of the racing
season of 1910 for a half-mile track,
taking a mark of 2:09A. But that
looked like the end of his racing ca
reer on account of a badly sprained
this season, and no effort was made to
season. He left here fair week for the
great western circuit. He got fourth
money at Galesburg, ILL.,, and finished
fifth at Decatur, and second money in
the 2:O8 pace at Lexington, and a week
later at the same place again took SEE
ond money. There was a different
driver up for each of the four races
The horse took his record in the
third heat of the 2:0S pace, after Mich
igan Queen had taken the previous two
in 2:O5 and 2:05A. There was a great
contest of speed between the two in
the fourth heat, Michigan Queen win
ming bv only a half length in the fast
time of 2:03%. Walnut Grove was
separately timed for a half-mile in just
a quarter of a second less than one
minute While this is remarka BILE speed
for even the very best horses, horse
men consider it even more renarkab BILE,
because in their opinion the horse was
not in good condition

f local factionalism."

Mr. Dawson admitted today that
his investigation may continue the
rest of the week. 1t is rumored that
he will, as a result of his inquisition
furnish the mayor with an exhaustive
private report outlining conditions as
he finds them and suggesting how
they may be permanently improved.
While Mr.. Dawson denies that he
has come here as the result of any
political intrigue to make his office
the catspaw of the enemies of the
mayor, he does not deny that he has
been supplied with plenty of startling
stories about Leavenworth, in the
form of anonymous communications.
Mayor GRANGER. who is a Democrat
was elected after one of the most hot
lily contested elections ever seen here.
The four commissioners elected with
him were rather inclined to the OPP
position candidate for mayor and Mr..
GRANGER, upon taking office, found to
his surprise that he was to be de-
prived of the usual prerogatives of the
office and was not allowed to make
any appointing on the police force
or anywhere else.
An open breach occurred when the
mayor demanded the removal of the
police judge and the city attorney, on
the ground that the four commission
ers had made an illegal compact be-
fore election, promising reappoint-
mentS to these two officials in return
for political services. custer proceed
ings were threatened and the affair
was finally compromised when the
commissioners gave in and allowed
the mayor to name a new city attor-
ney. But the wounds created in that
clash of authority have never healed
and it is a matter of common gossip
that certain police officers who were

State Historical Society Elect.

The annual meeting of the officers
and members of the state historical So
ciety closed last night with the cleo
ton of Col ]. n. Harrison of Topeka
as president Of the society, while Arthur
Capper, Topeka, was elected first vice
president and Charles F. Scott, lola,
was made second vice president. At
the 1912 meeting of the society, George
A. Martin was elected secretary for a
two year term. The following new
mem bers of the board of directors were
elected: For the three year term end
ing October, 1914, w. A. Thompson of
Topeka, replacing Mrs. Kate D. APP

persons who are opposed to him. have
never missed an opportunity to try to
get him in bad" with the state Off
Gals.
This is the kind of mess Mr.. Dawson
found himself supposed to be taking
part in when ne got fairly started on
his inquisition here this week and he
is exceedingly anxious to have it
known that he doesn't care who is
mayor or what internal strife is going
on so long as the city and county
make an honest effort to enforce the
prohibitory law. However, before this
inIuisition is finished, it may become
necessary for Mr.. Dawson to take
some notice of the trouble at the city
hall and see if it isn't in part respon-
sible for what seems to be a lack of
interest in law enforcement. The at
torney general expresses himself as
pleased with Mayor GRANGER and be-
Heves in his sincerity. Assistant At
torney General Coleman, who has
been doing most of the work here,
said today: "Mr. GRANGER outside of
the enforcement of the prohibitory
law, is an exceptionally high grade
mayor and is giving Leavenworth a
fine administration

Adaptability OF the
Wash Fabrics

The finer of the Wash Fabrics are
demanding much attention these
DAYS, and we ourselves are surprised
at the many beautiful weaves manu-
facturers are producing in cotton and
silk-and-cotton fabrics. In fact, these
fabrics may be said to vie with the
silks and wooden piece goods in the
realm of fashionable dressmaking.
Are you one who has not yet seen
this display of newest fabrics? We
would like to show you the line of
Ratines in all cotton and in silk-and-
cotton-the Cotton Crepes-and the
BrOcaded fabrics.
They are to be seen in all the new
shades wanted this fall, as well as IN
the staple colors, and you'll find these
Wash Fabrics a true revelation.
