wild GOOSE CHASES
Police Called Out Ten Times . Day
for Nothing.

Topeka police officers are forced to
go upon an average of ten wild
goose calls every day.
Hardly an hour passes but phone
number 4S rings with an instant de-
mand for a posse to go to q certain
place Hundreds Of times the officers
have gone hot footed after the scent
of murder and found q dog with q
lame foot. Many times has double
murder resulted in the discovery that
some spouse had only hit the head OF
her husband with a roller towel, leav-
ing him none the worse for it.
Tuesday afternoon report came
into the station that there was certain
evidence Of murder behind q bill
board in the residence section Of the
city. Sergeant A. L. Walker went to
the scene, overlooked all billboards in
the vicinity and nothing more start
ling than a near petrified cat was
found.
The position OF police ofncer does
not necessarily mean q position OF
ease and quietude. Every patrolman
and officer expects to take several
miles of exercise every day looking
after such calls.

BLACK DIVORCE SUIT.
It Stin Occupies Attention Of the Dis

The Black divorce suit still drags
on in the district court. Sensational
charges are made by Mrs. Black

ton for divorce against her. Accord
ing to her testimony today. he and his
pretty stenographer were found in a
compromising position. o. c. Black
explained his predicament by declar-
ing he and his employee were "scuf-

the stenographer as "meddlesome"-

knew where he slept and how he lived.
Numerous witnesses are in the
courtroom. The case was commenced
on Monday, and will consume most of
the week. Mrs. Black went on the
stand Tuesday afternoon. Most Of her
testimony has related to her husbands
attitude toward his typist. Part Of her
cross examination has taken place
with the Black baby, whom both par
ents desire, climbing over her knee.
"Mr. Black often called Miss Ackley
up and made dates with herr she de-
clared today. when protested. he
told me he would make dates with
whom he pleased"

queried Mrs. Blacks attorney.

INDUCED In . few humorous pokes At

In my opinion every large city in

Among the Kansas legislative alb

was the hotel law, which provided nrst
that the measure should become ef-
fective when printed In the odlctal pa
per; second. when published In the
statute books, and. third, ON January

A member of the senate introduced 9

governor. A member of the house in
tr0duced an exact copy of the measure
at about the same time. It passed the

Not until It., too. had been signed by
the governor was the duplication dis
covered.
