her sponsors believe in letting other states

They are consistent advertisers.

Sleeps in a Bed First Time in
His Life.
Meets and Plays With Other
Children.

Richard Molby, three and a half
years old, born in the state hospital
for the insane at Topeka, has gone to
play with the boys and girls at the
for the first time in all his young life,
Mister Richard Molby slept in a real
bed. This morning for the first time,
he actually played with boys and girls
who taught him their games and made
him one of them.
The story of little Richard Molby is
one of the strangest of all the state
wards. The youngster was born in
the Topeka state hospital three and
half years ago. His mother went to
the hospital from Pawnee county, suf-
fer1ng from a mental sickness. Maybe
she will never go home. But Richard
Molby came into the strange big world
and his big eyes looked around at the
four walls of the hospital ward and
at once found a home.
Since the day Richard MOlby was
mascot and pet Every physician,
every nurse and every employee knew
Richard Molby and Richard Molpy
was the friend of every man and
woman connected with the big state
institution. There is hardly an en-
ployee in the hospital who has not
contributed to Richard Molby's list
of presents. They bought him clothing,
make a baby boy happy. The nurse
girls cuddled and fondled him and
every day Richard Molby was a lit
more of an established institution.
Slept With His Mother.
At night Richard Molby slept in a
ward with his mother-slept on an
improvised cot made on pine box
slept there because the big, rich state
of Kansas couldn't afford to appro
pirate enough money to buy beds for
all of the unfortunates. Largely
through the personal donations of
hospital employees and officers, Rich
ard Molby lived and made his home
Then came the time when a place
at the hospital could no longer be
provided. So Richard Molby was
taken to the state orphans home at
Atchison. Last night Mrs. E. K.
Burns, the superintendent, gave the
new inmate real bed. Last night
for the second time in Richard Mol
by's young life--he actually saw other
children.
Harry c. Bowman, a member of the
state board of control, was at the or
phans home when Mister Richard
MoIby made his chow to those of his
own age.
1.-The tot was half scared to death
when he entered the big dining hall
and saw 200 other children" said
Bowman. ut was the second time in
all his life that he had seen children
and he didn't know what to do. Then
last night, for the first time in his
life, he slept in a real bed. Today
he is learning the games as played by
other inmates of the home.''

MAKES new RULE
Judge Fisher Taxes COstAgainst
Complaining Witnesses
Who Refuse to Testify in Wife
DesertiOn Cases.

Becoming exasperated at the failure
of SO many wife desertion cases at the
expense of the county, Judge Hugh
T. Fisher made a new order in the
court of Topeka this morning whom he
assessed the costs in desertion case
against the complaining witness, who
happened to be, as usual, a penitent
wife. The case in question was that
of the state against Isaiah Downing,
colored, who ran away to Rockford,
ILL.,, and left his wife and three chill
dren to shift for themselves at their
home, 1921 Harrison street. Sheriff
L. L. Kiene spent $63.45 of the coun-
tvs money to bring Downing back to
Topeka and now his wife wants him
released without punishment.
Judge Fisher assessed the costs
against Mrs. Downing and stated that
he would commit her to Jail until they
were paid. This was a signal for a
wordy battle in the court room. j.
johnson, who had been appointed by
Judge Fisher as attorney for Downing,
threatened habeaS corpus proceedings
if anything like this was done. After
considerable argument the case was
continued until next Tuesday.
A similar case also was heard in the
court this morning. ~Pittman Kellar,
who was brought back from McLoud,
Okla, last week by Sheriff Kiene, was
on trial for wife desertion. Mrs. KEEL
lar refused to testify. This is the case
in which F. B. Dreaming, attorney for
Mrs. Kellar, went to the attorney gen.
eral because the county attorney hest
tated about issuing a warrant. kellar
paid S25 toward the costs in court this
morning and the case was continued.
Within the last three months such
cases have cost Shawnee county
S264.S5 and the county officials are
trying to find some way to cut down
this expense.
TOO many cases are brought when
the complaining witnesses change
their minds" said Judge Fisher this
morning. land if there Is any way that
1 can stop this expense 1 am going to
do it. The law gives me power to as
sess the costs against the complaining
witness. 1t costs the court of Topeka
on an average SIS a month for just
such cases as these. This is a burden
on the taxpayers and should be stop
ped if there is any possible way. | am
getting tired of this business and pro-
pose to make the complaining wit
nesseS pay if they do not testify"
