hundreds of bottles Of beer. whisky.

station to make reproductions of the

ers.
The preachers broke the bottles them

gurgled into the open sewer and
tramped the labels under their feet
with vim. The performance was staged
III the hot sun and the fumes of John
Barleycorn attracted a large crowd to
the corner.
The feature Of the crusade against
captured counterbrand goods was the
energy displayed by Dr.. Sheldon and
Dr. Young in carrying buckets of beer
and whisky to the sewer course. With
coats buttoned tight around them
these ministers of the gospel trans
ferred the booze from the jail to the
sewer opening where their comrades
awaited the humiliation.

Codding had ben shot Attorney-Gen-
eral Dawson and w. r. MONTGOMERY,
assistant encouragement, left immedi-
ateiy tor L~avenworth. They will re-
turn to Topeka sometime to-day.
The news Of the shooting Of Coddins
came as q shock and a surprise to every
state official. The former state peni-
Tertiary warden had for several months
been active in cleaning up Leavenworth
county and had won the genuine hatred
OF the jointists Of the town.
The idea of Codding being shot,
though. never seemed possible to U.S.
said General Dawson before leaving for
Leavenworth.
Codding's forte had always been his
ability to handle and control men. Dur
Ing the fire at the state penitentiary
in 1913. Coddfng5 turned his most des-
perate men into the prison yard and
they fought fire as though their lives
depended on it. At night Codding en-
trusted his yegg men and long termers
with the dynamite with which to tear
oown walls. So it was only character
fstfc of Coddfng to ask Jake Weis-
man, a mere jointist. to ride in his
automobile with him. The fact that
Weisman had threatened the former
warden. was perhaps never considered.
For nearly four years J. X. Codding
was warden of the state penitentiary at
lansing. He was appointed by former
Governor w. r. Stubs. and served
until July l. last year. when he was
succeeded by J. D. Botkin, an ap-
pointee of the Hodges administration
Since leaving the prison. Codding and
MS son have been engaged in the prac-
tice of law in Leavenworth. Much of
J. X Codding's time has been devoted
to the work of special sistant attor-
ney-general for Leavenworth county.
