Law IS BEHIND
Justice III. F. Mason Delivers
Address in Kansas City.
Talks to Merchants Club and
WyandOtte County Bar.

Kansas City, March 31.-The law is
behind science, manufactures and COM
merce, but it Is fast catching up with
the progress of the times, at least in
Kansas. This IL the idea Of Henry F.
Mason, associate justice of the supreme
court Of Kansas in an address to the
Mercantile club and the Wyandotte Bar
association at Kansas City, Kan, Mon
day night.
Justice Mason admitted that much
OF the criticism Of the courts and the
law was true. but that at the present
time and in the progressive states many
failed to realize that the law was NOV
ing. forward rapidly now and would
soon be abreast Of the times and mod
ern thought.
TT is said that the law lags be-
hind and undertakes to administer
twentieth century justice with eigh-
tenth century machinery" said Jus
tice Mason. 1.-The criticism, like most
similar protests, has a substantial basis
and within reasonable limits is just and
wholesome.
"Tho bar associations Of the country,
led by the American Bar association.
are exerting their influence In favor
of the needed reform. The equity
practice Of the federal courts has been
revolutionized by the adoption Of new
rules intended to remedy the evils
complained Of, and going far in that
direction. The code OF procedure OF
Kansas has been revised with the same
purpose.
''It IL interesting to note. through the
efforts Of the Kansas State Bar asso-
citation, nine separate bills, each in
tended to do away with some statutory
obstacle to the efficient administration
Of the criminal law, were introduced
at the last session Of the legislature
Not one Of these measures passed either
house. Ono was favorably recommend
ed by the committee to which It wa
referred, but It died on the calendar"

Continue Drilling.
Ellsworth, Kan. March 31.-The
gas vein at the new gas well was
struck recently. An unusual flow of
water was found after the first vein
was struck. The well filled to within
forty feet Of the surface. This week
tho well was cased to the bottom. In
doing this, two veins Of gas had to be
shut off with the casing. Unlike the
found in this well, and but for the
water the well would have proven to
be by far the best yet drilled. AS it
is. the well produces about the same
as the others.
The indications are that this field
is the best yet found. but the presence
of a large body of water close to the
gag sand will prevent 1t being utilized.

MOVs TO Abb Il Il Salaries
OF PARLIAhEhT Numbers

London, Nov. 21, 7.20 A. M. +.
P. Rawlinson, Unionist member of
Parliament from Cambridge University
has given notice of his intention to
move in the House of Commons a reso-
luton providing that the salaries of
members of Parliament be discontinued
while the salaries of ministers are to be
reduced to the basis of those given in
1906. The resolution recites that this
action is taken in view of the drain
on the finances of the country.
Members of Parliament get a salary
of 400 pounds {s2, ,000). Such payments
was provided for in August, 1911,
when a resolution to that effect intro
lueed by David Lloyd George, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, was
adopted. Previously members hal
served without pay.
The salaries of members of the Cabi-
net range from 1000 poHnds to To-
600 pounds. The latter sum is pad to
the Lord Chancellor. The premier and
the Lord of the Privy Seal serve with
out pay.

Wills engagement at the Orpheum as
well as the many noteworthy attrac-
tons that appear on the same bill, sup.
nortlng this unusual star of laughter.
For the coming week the management
is announcing bill of Keith hits that
look to combine into a very appropriate
and unsual bill to be presented during
the Thanksgiving festivities. While
there have been weeks at the Orpheum
that the headliner was probably more
conspicuous, yet the general strength of
the oiil from the opening act to the
close looks to be unequaled. Light en-
tertainment in almost every shade and
hue known to vaudeville is included in
the week s layout. To this there is Just
one exception and that is the preten.
ilous headliner, which is a marvellous
dancing and vocal production to be pre-
sented by the Golden troupe. Twelve
artists are required for the presentation
of this latter attraction, which is dis.
tinctly Russian. Gorgeous staging and
elaborate costuming makes their offer
ing wonderful "sight act'' while the
Efforts of the artists are said to outdo
anything in their line in present day
vaudeville. Their act is described as
being whirl of light, song, dance and
splendor. The laughing dish of the bill
will be served up by McDevitt, Lacy
and Kelly, in comedy sketch called
The Piano Movers. Other big names
of the bill will include Moore and Yates,
Burr and Hope, Will Morrissey and

JUDGE SELECTED FOR SHOW
j. w. Andrews to Pick Prize Birds at
Joint Poultry Show

j. w. Andrews, of Dighton, Mass,
will judge the White Wyandottes at
the joint show of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Poultry Association and the Ma
tional White Wyandotte Club, in Chest
nut Street Hall, December to IL. Me-
gotiations for his services were closed
yesterday by Secretary Smith of the
local association. The selection of this
noted White Wyandotte specialist is
sure to meet with the approval of
every exhibitor of birds of this popular
breed.
Indications point to an entry list
double that of last year. There will
be gains in every class but perhaps the
largest gain will be in bantams. 1t
is the ambition of local bantam breed
ers to build up the bantam class from
year to year in the Harrisburg show.
The work done along that line this year
will show results at the forthcoming
exhibition.
This year the show will run FIVE full
days as against four last year. The
doors will not close until 10 O'Clock
Saturday night.
