WILL SUE H.E.DEAN
Attorney General Will Try to
Collect Fair Salary.
Governor Capper Requested
That Money Be Collected.

Suit to collect from H. E. Dean of
Kansas City. Kansas, a claim of So
APO, alleged to have been illegally paid
to him as secretary of the Panama
Pacific exposition commission, will be
filed in a few days by S. M. Brewster,
attorney general. The suit will be
filed against Dean at the personal re-
quest of Governor Capper. Dean has
resigned as secretary of the commits
sion.
The payment of salary to Dean as
secretary of the commission created a
sensation when aired on the floor of
the senate during the recent legisla-
tive session. Deans friends contended
that he was entitled to the money,
but the attorney general ruled other
wise and held that the money should
be returned to the state. Subsequent
to this investigation, Dean resigned.
This week Governor Cappsr sent a
letter to S. NJ. Brewster, attorney
general, directing the filing of the suit
to collect the $2,420 alleged to have
been illegally paid to the Kansas City
man by members of the commission.
General Brewster stated today that
the suit would be filed this week.
Since the resignation of Dean, the
secretary's work has been handled by
Bank Commissioner Benson, a mem
Der of the fair commission.

determined to take no chances of a
serious accident due to a fight be-
tween such big men. They have ap-
pointed three physicians to attend at
the ringside. The will have oxygen
and other stimulants to revive the
fighters in case of an unusual knock
out or a fall. They say, however,
that they will not interfere with the
proper termination of the battle ac-
cording to the code of prize ring. The
relatively gigantic size of the pugilists
evidently has impressed Cuban Off
Gals with the idea that the struggle OF
next Monday will be unusually savage
A group of Cuban ministers repre-
senting various ( evangelical missions
centered in Havana have filed a pro-
test with government officials against
the fight and some American minis
tiers living here have addressed an
open letter to American tourists as
fellow countrymen protesting against
their support of the bout. No particu-
lar attention is being paid to these
protests by the Cuban officials or the
fight promoter
The hotels of Havana are beginning
to fill up with early arrivals from 9TH
er parts of the island and from the
southern states. Willard money is
beginning to appear and it is expected
to reduce the present odds of and

They WANT MRS. PERRY
Superintendent of BeIOit School Urged
WOman's Clubs.

Governor Caper was today urged to
appoint Mrs. Julia B. Perry as super
intendent of the Girls Industrial
school at Beloit to succeed Miss Frank
Wilson, appointed during the Hodges
administration. Miss Wilson's appoint
ment was for term of two years and
her term expires July l. 1t is hardly
probable that a change in the office
will be made before that time.
The appeal to Governor Capper to-
day came from some of the most
prominent and widely known women
in Kansas who have SHOWN a deep
concern in the affairs of the school.
Eight former presidents of the Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs have en-
dorsed Mrs. Perry and asked for her
appointment at the hands of the gov
ernor. Mrs. Perry was Superintend-
ent of the Industrial school for girls
during the Stubs administration.
Among former presidents of the
federation of clubs who have endorsed
Mrs. Perry's candidacy are: Mrs. S.
r. Peters, Newton; Lucy B. Johnston
Topeka; Mrs. Noble L. Prentis, New
ton; Mrs. John c. McClintock To-
peka; Mrs. w. d. Atkinson, Parsons
Mrs. James Humphrey, Junction City;
May Belleville Brown, Salina, and

Havana. March 3O.-With the battle
for the worlds heavyweight cham
pionship less than one week AWAIT
is set for April 5-Jack johnson and
Jess Willard today began reducing
their training routine.
Willard was so fit that he virtually
laid off and planned no work aside
from a walk and run of a few miles

day was spent in resting and sightsee-
ing. Johnson took some short SprintS
on the road and went through his
regular public training in the stadium
in the afternoon.
Both men say the climatic condi-
lions of Havana have helped them ar
rive at an edge quickly. Each man is
said to be in splendid condition with

A new K. U. COACH
OlcOtt, of Yale, Chosen to Pilot
the Jayhawkers.
Has Been Active in Football
Work All His Life.

Lawrence, Kan, March 30.-Her-
man Olcott, graduate of Yale and a
well known football player and coach,
was chosen football coach of the Uni
versity of Kansas at noon today by
the board of administration upon the
recommendation of Athletic Director
w. o. Hamilton.
Olcott is at present practicing law
in New York city. His contract calls
for three years service, and Jack
Wheaton, last years K. U. coach, also
graduate of Yale, says the selection
OF OlcOtt is the greatest event that mas
happened in Lawrence in football
way in years. Twenty-Five candidates
were up for consideration and Olcott
was chosen as the best and most
promising on the list
His selection means that the whole
coaching system at K. U. will be rev.
olutionized. In fact, it is hoped that
a real coaching system. something the
JayhawkerS have never. had, will be
built up and standardized, so that
alumni members who enter the coach
ing field in preparatory schools after
they leave the university will know
just how to coach and train the men
who show ability and intend to enter
the university.
A Brilliant Career.
Olcott's football career has been one
continuous success since he first be-
came a devOtee of the game at the
tender age of years. When only 5
years old he was a member of the
team of the College of the City of New
York, and he entered Yale in 1898.
During the seasons of 1899, 1900 and
1901 he was a regular member of the
Old Eli eleven, playing tackle, guard
and center positions He was a mem
Der of the famous team of Captain
Jordon Brown that defeated both Har-
ward and Princeton by big scores in
1900.
In 1902 and 1903, Mr.. O1cott
coached the eleven of the North Caro-
lima university, and had two very sue
cessful seasons, his team defeating the
University of Virginia eleven both
years.
At Annapolis.
In 1904 and 1905 he was field coach
at the Annapolis Naval academy and
was assistant coach there in 1906. IN
1907 he began the pra ctice of law in
New York City and spent his vaca-
ton time each year from that time on
coaching the team of the University
of the City of New York. In 1910 this
team went through the season unde-
feated under his generalship, tied
Yale and was ranked as the twelfth
best team in the country. In 1912 he
also acted as advisory coach at the
same school
Mr.. Olcott is SO years old feet
tall and weighs 220 pounds. During
his college days he was also an expert
hammer thrower and a member of the
Yale rowing crew.
1t is very probable that Former
Coach Wheaton will act as advisory
coach next fall in order to help Mir
OlcOtt get the team under way.

TALLION IS IN CAMP.
Hockey Playing Outfielder Arrives at
Noon Today From Cold North.

Zeke TaIlion, the Sault Ste Marie
hockey playing outfielder of the local
baseball club arrived in the city at
noon today from his northern haunts
and reported as being in first class
shape.
Tallion is one of the all around men
from last years team, and is best
noted for his willingness to work
wherever he is place without ever so
much as a murmur. Last year he
worked at shortstop, third base and
in the outfieId and made a good field
ing average in all positions. He also
swung the stick with fair measure of
success, making a batting average of
.265.

According TO the police officers less
'rowdyism" was shown around the

T.R. COMING BACK
The Colonel Is Headed Toward
the Republican Camp.
He Is Anxious to Defeat Wilson
and Bryan.

Washington, March 30.-Republi-
cans are in high feather because of
their belief that Col. Theodore Roose-
welt is in a fair way to speedy re-
turn to the Republican party to the
extent at least of support of its can
didate for president. The colonel be-
lieves the defeat of President wilson
and Secretary Bryan necessary to safe
guard the interests of this county and
to- eXtricate it from perilS of interna-
tional complications that must prove
dangerous and hurtful.
There is no intention on the part of
the Republicans to nominate former
President William Howard Taft. Such
action unquestionably would be the
red rag to the bulP' SO far as the colo
mel is concerned. Indeed, it is known
he would rather accept William
Barnes jr. of New York, or Boies
Penrose of Pennsylvania, bad he
regards them, than his successor in
the White House. So far as the colo
mel has given any indications, ne Is
still a Progressive, but he realizes the
popular support.
He Mentions Names.
In his recent telegram to the senate
ship purchase bill lobby investigating
committee, the colonel mentioned as
among those who have been watchful
of the best interests of the country
Senators Root, Lodge, Burton, Borah
and Smoot, all pillars in the regular
Republican organization and from
whom he had cut adrift politically.
Some comment as OccaSiOned by
his inclusion of Senator Smoot in the
galaxy of honorable mention be-
cause of his former well-remembered
bitter differences with the Utah sena
tor whom he held as the right-hand
man to Senator AIdrich in opposition
to his policies. 4ftt - e.-lee-.t-
The report, of the: winning back of
Colonel Roosevelt brought joy to the
few Republican leaders still here and
depression to the Democratic leaders.
The latter have been hoping for
third-party candidate to split the Re-
publican vote as in 1912 and without
Roosevelt as leader there will be no
such party.
There is no whisper that Colonel
Roosevelt is looking to 1916 for him
self.
Friends of Senator John w. Weeks
of Massachusetts, have been working
quietly in his interest for some
months, and it is known they are about
ready to spring his candidacy for the
Republican nomination.
