CLOCKS ARE PARTISAN
Those at Federal Building Won't Run
for Democrats.

Are the clocks at the federal build
ing political? Federal officials have
admitted that they must be Repub-
Hcan. AT any rate they refuse to run
and keep correct time and have been
out of order most of the time since the
beginning of the Wilson administra-
ton.
The clocks were installed during a
Republican administration. A visitor
to the building stopped to obtain the
time on the first floor. The clock
downstairs registered 6:15. On the
second floor another clock pointed out
the time as 1870. The visitor entered
the marshaPs office on the third floor
and the hands of the clock in that
room pointed to 1880.
Some one sure un1oaded a bunch
of junk onto the government when
they sold those clocks" said a federal
official today

CARY PLOT Barred
Police UntangIe Mystery OF
Minister'S Murder.
One Man Under Arrest and
Others Are Detained.

Gary, Ind, Aug. 27.-One man is
under arrest and several are detained
for examination by the police today
in an effort to apprehend the murder
ers of the Rev. Edmund Kayser of
To1lestCn.
The names of the men were with
held and Chief of Police Heintz re-
fused to disclose the nature of the evil
dence against them. He admitted he
had not discovered whether the
clergyman was killed because of pro-
German utterances or for acts which
brought him the enmity of some of
his neighbors. Elmer Leroy, an Eng
lishman, who is said to have de-
nounced Kayser in his church some
weeks ago, was taken into custody,
but later released. A trunk, which it
is thought may contain proof of plot
to assassinate the minister, was
brought to the police station today.
kayser'S multitudious activities
have led the investigators in many
directions. Some indications tend to
the theory that the clergy
man was shot as result of political
conspiracy. Other evidence disclosed
today that enmities incurred as a re-
suit of feelings were sufficient to
have led to the crime

BOXES AT THE FAIR
Double Row Inside the Quarter
Stretch Being Built.
Demand Is Great Both at Home
and Abroad.

There will be private boxes for those
who wish to view the races ana the
Horse Show of the Big Free FAIR from
points of vantage. Up to TINS Week
the plan was not to have private boxes
but the demand has been so great that
Samuel E. Lux, president ana mana
ger, decided to provide boxes ana the
work of building them will start at
once.
I'VE have had so many requests
for boxes that we find it necessary to
provide them" said PRESIDENT Lux
ssWednesday's mail brought three let
ters from out of town asking for
reservations of boxes. There have
been many requests from Topeka peo-
pie also. SO we have DECIDED TO pulld
a limited number of private boxes that
can he engaged by those who desire
for the entire week or for part of
the week for the races or the horse
show or both"
The Horse Show this year will be
held in front of the grandstand- The
fence that outlined the outer side of
the race track in front of the grand
stand has been removed and the track
and the paddock to within ten feet of
the grandstand have been thrown into
one large arena for the horse show.
During the races in the afternoons
fence will mark off the track, and this
fence will be removed at night for the
horse show and a fence to mark the
horse show arena will be placed in
position These fences are built to be
movable and will allow the grand
stand to be used for both the races
and the Horse Show.
Miss Loula Long, E. d. Mooers, Roy
Davis and others who exhibited at the
horse show at the Topeka fair last
year urged the management to mold
the horse show this year in front of
the grandstand and not under a tent
and these suggestions are being fol-
lowed as it is found that with the eX-
ception of winter horse shows that the
out of door exhibitions are the most
popular.
The boxes for the races and horse
show are being built inside the quar-
ter stretch right up to the track fence
along the home stretch directly east
of the judges stand. There will be
only two rows of boxes and they will
