preliminary examination of Arthur
Davenport was set this morning for
this afternoon at o'clock in the court
of Topeka, in order to be sure OF OBJ
tanning the complaining witnesses
testimony. Davenport was brought
back from Hastings, Neb., where he
was arrested by Charles HiXon, dep
uty sheriff. late Tuesday afternoon
and was arraigned in the court of To-
peka. where he pleaded not guilty this
morning.
]. J. Schenck, It is understood, will
defend Davenport, who it is alleged
wrote love letters to the Grant girls
under the name of Harry Gordon.
County officials fear that the attitude
of the Chicago woman will prevent
them from obtaining more warrants
in the case. So far ten have been is
sued.
Persuasion was tried without sue
cess upon the two girls and their
champion last night by the county
officials to get one of the girls to sign
the complaints. Several times the
girl was nearly persuaded. officials
say, but just at the critical moment
the sister would object and the fences
of the county officials would fall with
a crash.
Too Many Complaints.
There is no doubt whatever in the
mind of county officials that the Had
ley girl who testified against Dan Tur-
hers testimony. According to officials,
the sister of the Grant girls did not
have much objection to the two girls
swearing to one complaint each, but
insisted that it would be too much for
them to sign more than one.
Star chamber inquisitions are being
held every few hours in the county
attorneys office. This afternoon, two
other girls, said to know something
about the alleged orgies at the institu-
ton will be called before the county
attorney and more warrants will prob
ably be issued.
Testify as to Brutality.
That some of the attendants at the
hospital were brutal to patients was
the. allegations made by some of the
girls in the county attorneys office
Tuesday evening, in an inquisition that
lasted until after o'clock. The Had
ley girl claimed that while she was in
the buildings at the hospital she gave
patients notes to take to the hospital
officials. Certain attendants, she said,
took the notes away from the patients
and cuffed and struck them. So far
three arrests have been made in the
scandal. Other arrests and other
warrants may follow at any time.
The county attorneys office will
not take up the allegations that at
PENDANTS are cruel to patients but will
leave the matter in the hands of the
baord of control which is making a
state investigation of the orgies.
Denial that the Grant girls were at
any time in the buildings at the insti-
tuition was made this morning by A. c.

Walk and Suffered Years
From Many Ailments.
Declares Tanlac Gave Her Re-
lief and That Medicine Is
Worth Its Weight in Gold.

Many have testified to the great
benefits they have received from the
Master Medicine, Tanlac, but the most
remarkable statement so far made
comes from Mrs. Charles Pulliam who
lives on Rural Route No. 8, Wichita,
in which she relates the benefits Tan
lac brought to her mother, Mrs. A. J.
Myers, who makes her home with her.
She said:
My mother, who is seventy five
years old, has been troubled with her
stomach for years and years. Gas
would form on her stomach causing
her to have great pains and awful
spells of belching. She also suffered
from catarrh which gave her lot of
trouble. She had not walked any dis
lance for long time until she began
taking Tanlac about three weeks ago.
Now she is not bothered with the
pains in her stomach, can eat anything
she wants and she says her stomach
trouble has all left her. Mother says
it iS the best medicine she ever saw,
and it is worth its weight in gold.
she has for years. and to prove it to
US she walked all around the place the
other day and enjoyed it."
Tanlac is not a cure all, but as a
general tonic and up-builder it gives
perfect satisfaction to all who take it
that are suffering from stomach, liver.
Kidney and catarrhal ailments

the Tully-McFarland drug store Ninth

WAR IS BROUGHT HOME
N. I'll. VOLTS Nephew Wounded in
Battle With the French.

Although seven members of the
family of N H. Wolff, local tailor,
have been fighting in the ranks. of the
German army since early in the war,
all of them but one have so far es-
capped injury. S. Wiehl, a nephew,
was the first to be brought down.
Wiehl, who was with the German
armies for fifteen months before he
was wounded, was shot twice during
the last charge in Champa gne.
The first six months that Weih1
spent with forces of the kaiser were
in the German trenches in France.
Later he was transferred to Russia
where he remained for half a year.
He was then ordered back to France
and had been there three months
when he was wounded.
Mr.. Wolff hears frequently from his
relatives in Germany and since the
war began has received at least one
letter a week from his kinsmen in the
war zone. There appears to be no
doubt in the minds of the Germans as
to the outcome of the war, Mr.. Wolff
is advised by his relatives. While no
prophecies are made as to how long
the conflict will last, eventually Ger
many will be victorious, they say.
There are few evidences of the war
in the cities, according to Mr.. VOLTS
information. The price of meat and a
number of articles not necessities of
life have advanced, but on the whole
the burdens of war are not falling
heavily on persons living in German
cities.

Sister Prevents Girls From

TAKE NO ACTION ON CRUELTY
County Will Leave Other
Charges to Board Control.
Two More Girls May Be Called
In on Case.

The boat of prose cution, launched
by the office of w. E. Atchison, coun-
ty attorney, came near being sub
marined late Tuesday evening when
a new character, a Mrs. Hildebrand-
sister of Thelma and Ina Grant
who lives III Chicago, appeared in the
cast at the county attorneys office
and persuaded her sisters temporar-
lily to cease swearing to warrants
against attendants at the institution.
The woman made her appearance
during an Inquisition in the county
attorneys office. Ina Grant had
just sworn to complaint charging
another man, newly implicated, with
a statutory offense. Will Anderson,
court StenOgrapher, had just drawn up
two other complaints for the girls to
sign and the girls were preparing to
sign them when the woman plowed
through the Gordon of county Off
Gals through the outer office and
into the star chamber of the county
attorney.
She objected strenuously to the
girls duplicating themselves any
deeper in the affair. She told mem
bers of the county attorneys force
that she had come all the way from
Chicago to stop the girls. She also
threatened to spirit the girls away,
officials say.
