BY HUGH s. FULLERTON.
Topeka, Kans., Feb.< 3.-Eat
Glove quickly or you will have
a Topeka jag.
Sh-h. Don't laugh out loud, or
you'll be Topeka drunk and dis
orderly.
Judge George A. Huron, whose
orders and whose definition Of
drunk, and drunk and disorderly
are responsible for the most re-
cent sensation in Kansas, has es-
tablished a new basis of judging
drinking men.
Chicago's basis of decision is
that a man is not drunk unless be
insists upon kissing the bartender
good night.
New York works upon the plan
that no man is drunk unless be
lies down in the gutter and quar-
rels with the fire hydrant for fail
ing to call him at the right hour.
Topeka's standard is that man
is drunk II the police can detect
the odor of liquor on his breath.
In Topeka a man r drunk and
disorderly and guilty of breach
of the peace If he talks or laughs
boisterously, IL he walks unstead-
lily enough to attract attention, or
shows by his actions or manner
of talking that he has been drink
ing.
Judge Huron insists that 1t is
the only correct one and last year
under his orders the police of To-
peka arrested GS1 persons aud
fined them either for drunkenness
or, drunkenness and disorderly
conduct. The fact that 6S1 were
charged with drunkenness, one
third of the total arrests in 1914;
the fact that this happened in To-
peka, Citadel of Prohibition, capt.
tai of Kansas, the Kingdom of the
Drys, stunned those who are
fighting for prohibition, and
brought from the vets the cry of
triumph and the charge that it
proved prohibition a failure.
The vets Immediately seized
upon the figures, whipped them
into excellent advertising copy,
contrasted the fact of 681 arrests
in Topeka with Gov. Capper's
statement that prohibition was
successful and celebrated a "vic-
tory"

DELICATE PROBLEM COMES
Up IN BRIDGE WRECK CASE

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 3.
The state department is pre-
pared to receive fro mthe British
ambassador a request for the ex-
tradition OF the alleged German
dynamiter, Werner Van Horne,
who wrecked the bridge leading
from Vanceboro, Me-, into Can
ada.
Van Horne claims immunity,
maintaining that as German, he
merely committed a political
crime for which he cannot be ex-
tfadited. He maintains he has
the right to seek refuge in a neu-
trail country and that he cannot
be delivered to a belligerent by

Theaters and Dinners.
Most OF this money, the boys
said, it is claimed, was spent for
theater tickets, for frequent trips
to Tacoma for spreads.
In one instance, 10 Is claimed,
the boys got check for $4,000
being sent the Puyallup State
bank. The size of the check pre-.
vented their cashing IL, 1t is al
legged, and il was destroyed. Other
smaller checks and drafts were
secured In great number, il is
claimed. ~ 4t
Eastern C0nfcderates?
Postmaster Montgomery, Mar
shall Wilson and Justice Mathis,
all of Puyallup, say their investi-
cations have led to the belief that
the boys have confederates in
Minneapolis. Chicago and other
eastern cities. Letters addressed
to these points were found in pos
session of the prisoners last
night, but disclosed no incriminat-
ing facts, IL is sad.
1.-THE girls will not be involved
i'm the case" said SeIden today.
Therefore it see,ns unnecessary
to mention their names. They live
in Puyallup and are well thought
of. IL is not likely they knew
where the money the boys spent
was coming from"

Ray Nuessle, % years old, and
Leo Bisnett, %, of Puyallup, are
said to have confessed last night
repeated robberies of Puyallup
postoffice boxes, extending over a
period of two months, perpetrat-
ed because of their sweethearts'

Both boys are being held in the
county jail here today in default
of $4,000 bonds. Nuessle has

cry, and Bisnett to a charge of
obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. Since their alleged con-
fession last night, they will be
turned over to postal authorities,
IL demand Is made.
- Series of RObberies?
According to Deputy Prosecu-
tor Selden, the young men admit
ted last night before himself and
a number of others in the prose-
cutor's office that they had begun
the alleged series of postoffice
box robberies two months ago.
They are said to have molested
the postoffice boxes of the
two Puyallup banks, taking let
ters in which checks and drafts
were enclosed. With these checks,
1t is claimed, they opened an ac-
count IN the Sumner State bank,
from which they drew sums de-
manded to defray their heavy ex-

past eight years would naturally bring in CORE
spending increase in taxes without any boosting Of
the tax rate BUT IN PIERCE COUNTY ALONE
THE TAX RATE HAS BEEN BOOSTED FROM
$40 MILLS IN 1905 TO 9.65 MILLS THIS YEAR.
In other words, the tax levy has been almost dnu-

the dead man, halted the proceeds

black eye and peculiar marks on

$2,590503.
Two millions, five hundred and ninety thousand,
five hundred and three dollars. That enormous
amount must be paid by the people of Pierce county
this year as taxes.
A fair degree of economy and just little effic-
iency in public places would cut million dollars off
that total But the economy and the necessity of ef
ficiency are evidently still strangers to public Of
ficials.
