Effort to Bring Structure to

With the close of the Panama-Pa-
cific exposition less than a month
away, Albert T. Reid of Topeka, presi-
dent of the exposition's Kansas COM
mission, announced today that deci-
sion with regard to the disposition of
the Kansas building at San Francisco
must be made shortly.
1t has been proposed that the
building be wrecked and the material
transported to Lawrence, to be re-
erected as the woman's administration
building of the University of Kansas
Several months ago the state board
of educational administration appoint
ed committee to determine the ap-
proximate cost of the transportation
and reconstruction of the building.

KANSAS PIONEER DEAD
Mrs. Rebecca Bull Was Well Known
Business Woman of Waterville.

waterville, Kan, Nov. 9.-Mrs.
Rebecca Agile Bull, a pioneer of Kan
sas, died Sunday in Kansas City at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. George w.
Stephenson, after stroke of paraly-
sis. The funeral will be held in Wa
terville. Mrs. Bull is survived by her
husband, the Rev. John Bull; her
daughter, Mrs. Stephenson; one son,
Frank Robbins, and eight grandchil-
dren. Mrs. Clara H. Hazelrigg, pastor
of the Auburndale Christian church of
Topeka, will conduct the funeral cere-
mony.
Mrs. Bull was born in Ohio. Her
first husband, Daniel Robbins, was a
soldier in the Civil war and died in
Andersonville prison in 1864. Mrs.
Robbins came to Kansas in 1867, set
thing in Waterville, where she lived
until 1910, when she was married to
the Rev. John Bull, then pastor of the
Christian church in Cimarron, Kan.
Mrs. Bull was probably more wide
ly known than any other woman in
northern Kansas. She was a business
woman of unusual ability and had
reputation as philanthropist.

This committee has made no report
and Mr.. Reid asserted today that, &C
cording to the agreement with the
exposition officials, only a few weeks
is to be allowed for the removal OF
the buildings after the close of the
expositions. Many of the state build
ings have been sold and arrangements
for the removal of most of them have
been made.
Erected at Cost of $21,O
The Kansas building, which has
been described as one of the finest
grounds, was erected at a cost of $21,-
900. It is classical colonial, two
stories high and true as to type and
school. In it's interior finishings and
furnishings the colonial idea is carried
out. 1t is fifty by one hundred feet
long with 24-foot verandas at either
end and is finished on the exterior in
stucco. Charles Chandler. state ar
chitect, recently estimated the value of
the lumber in the building at $4,000.
The furnishings, draperies and rugs
were purchased at cost price, the state
paying about $4,000 for them
May Bring Only $4,000.
Mr.. Reid said today, however, that
he doubted if more than $4,000 could
be obtained in San Francisco for the
building as it stands. Because of the
large number of buildings to be
wrecked there shortly and because of
the lack of demand for second hand
building material on the Pacific coast
it has been found almost impossible to
get a bid worthy of consideration.
Railroad officials here asserted that
the approximate cost of transporting
the material in the building from San
Francisco to Lawrence is 5000.
1.-The state has the opportunity to
a building worth $4,000 in
the Kansas exposition building" Mr..
Chandler said. otherwise the out
lay for the structure may be almost a
dead loss"

WOMAN CAN'T USE PHONE.
Peculiar Wichita Case: Right Side
Numb When Receiver Is Lifted.

Wichita, Kan, Nov. 9.-In Wichita
there is one woman who cannot use
telephone. She is not crippled in any
way, can hear, talk and enjoys the
use OF the phone as well as any one.
But the reason she cannot use a phone
is a case of nerves. Whenever she
tries to use telephone her right side
becomes numb and several times has
caused her to become unconscious.
Mrs. Lou e. Fisher of 1409 North
Waco avenue is the woman who is
thus afflicted. Several years ago Mrs.
Fisher received a severe shock while
using the telephone and since that her
nerves have been affected. Whenever
she takes down the receiver, she states
that her arm gradually becomes
