WILL SUE STATE
Movie Company Asks Kansas
$4,000 Damages.
First Real Fight Against Off
ciaI Censor Board.

The motion picture, Ghosts" which
was killed by the state board of movie
censorship Tuesday afternoon after it
had been officially passed in the morn
ing, will be shown over the state ac-
cordlng to an announcement of a
leading Topeka film man today.
The dispute over Ghosts occurred
Tuesday morning. One of the censors
after cutting several parts out of the
film, passed it officially. Another
censor, late in the afternoon, saw the
film at the Novelty and suggested sew
eral more cuts. The two of them Miss
Carrie Simpson and the Rev. Festus
Foster finally decided to eliminate the
picture in it's entirety
On account of the fact that the pic
ture had once been officially passed
it is understood that the picture shows
over the state are going to buck the
board and run the film. That will
probably mean big row and the mat
ter may be brought up in the courts
The Fox film corporation, at Kan
sas City, Mo, has just issued an an
nouncement that it will Immediately
file suit for $4,000 against the state
of Kansas if THE DEVILS Daughter -
is not permitted to be shown. This
picture was passed by the censor
board and last Saturday was shown at
the Iris theater in Topeka. Later it
was recalled

FROM JULY TO MAY.
Mountain Resort Weather Prevails in
Kansas Today.

Kansas weather has taken a jump
from July to May. The cool weather
in Kansas is almost unprecedented
for this month. The low tempers-
ture at Topeka this morning was J7.2
degrees as against $50, the coolest
for this date-1902- The mercury
was down to As degrees at Hays.
For the first time in nearly two
weeks no rain was reported by the
government today for the eastern half
of the state There have been n few
light scattered showers in western
Kansas. The entire state was clear
at o'clock this morning with the
exception of the extreme southwest.
The stage of the Kaw river at To-
peka today was 1872 feet. a "a hour
drop of "a feet. The Blue river at
Blue Rapids has fallen more than
five feet and the Republican at Clay
Center is on tie decline. The stage of
the Smoky Hill river at Abilene is
2O-9 feet, rise of 2S feet in twenty
four hours. The Kaw river is expect
ed to fall steadily until more rain ar
riVes.
The forecast calls for partly cloudy
weather tonight and Thursday with
probably showers in the west portion
of the state and warmer in the north
west.
The temperature was 2 degrees be-
low normal this afternoon. The wind
was ] 2 miles an hour from the north
