Remaining Amount for City's
Judgment Cash.

Although the city of Topeka has Sc
cured judgment against the county
for more than $4,000 as penalties
collected by the county during Pc
riod of twenty-five years on taxes due
the city, city commissioners appar-
emily will be able to collect but one
third the amount this year. In their
levy which has been completed and
certified, the county made arrange
ment to handle but $4,000 of the
judgment against them.
City commissioners and depending
on the judgment obtained against the
county to tide them over on their
budgets, no provision having been
made in the city budget for a judg-
ment fund. Following conferences
between Mayor Jay E. House and
members of the commission, they de-
cided also, in event the city realized
| on ITS Judgment, to divert part of the
amount received to the mayors fund
for adding motor equipment TO the
fire department
At the city hall this morning con-
siderable divergence of opinion was
| manifested over action the city should
! take In view of the county's intent to
pay but one-third of the judgment. In
view of the fact that the amount still
due the city will draw 6 per cent
| interest, it is not considered likely that
steps will be taken to collect the full
amount of the judgment this year.

A peculiar legal opening thru which
the county might possibly evade max
ing any payment on the judgment
fund next year was pointed out this
morning In event the county should

ciines to make payment. This man

It's levy for this year, the city cannot
now compel county commissioners to
pay full amount of the Judgment. The
city will gladly accept the $4,000 and
be glad to get it, is the general opin-
ion at the city hall. If the county
next year rushed thru it's levy, as il
rushed the levy this year, and make nc
provision for payment of the judg-
ment, the city will hold the sack. II
probably will have no recourse other
than an attempt to obtain a man

RUSH FOR HOMESTEAD LAND.
Many Filings Made at Dodge City
Under New Law

Dodge City, Kan, Aug. 11.-There
is a rush at the Dodge City land office
every day now as a result of the new
law which permits homesteaders to
take an additional amount of land up
to a total of $50 acres. The fact that
additional land not contiguous to their
original claim may be filed on now is
causing many of the settlers to take
extra land in their vicinity.
There are a number of filings being
made every day by mail from the vari-
Gus counties in the land district. The
claimants make their declaration be-
fore the probate judge or clerk of the
court in the county in which the land
is located, and the application is for
warded to the land office for filing.
Filing may be done by mail, but
preference is given men who appear in
person.

PRINCE NOW A vASSAL
One Son of Serbian King Waiter,
Other a Tailor.

Vienna, Aug. 11.-One of the lille
Ultimate sons of the late King Milan
OF Serbia, known as the Christich
brothers, who have been pretenders
to the Serbian throne, is now a waiter
in dining car running between vi
emma and Budapest, according to an
alleged discovery of a newspaper man
who formerly knew the Christich
brothers
When King Milan died he entrusted
one of these boys, whose mother was
the beautiful Artemesia, to his life
long friend, Count Eugene Itchy of
Budapest. The latter for years treat
ed him as an own son, supplied him
plentifully with all material things
him in his will or without making any
provision for him.
Tried the Stage First.
Thus telling suddenly from co1npar-
alive affluence to poverty, the man
dropped out of sight completely. His
present discoverer, who was making
trip from Budapest to Vienna, and
who knew the Christich brothers in
the old days when Count Itchy was
alive, was surprised to find that the
waiter who served him so noiselessly
and competently was no other than
one of these Christich boys.
The latter with some reluctance told
him that he had tried to make 1iv-
ing in one of the state ministries but
had failed because he possessed no
qualification; had tried the stage but
had been ruled off by the police be-
cause he had billed himself as
prince; and finally had turned to wait
ing on table, because he knew of
nothing else he could do efficiently.
Report He Was Proclaimed King.
| The foregoing is of interest partic
u1arly because of a story from Rome
recently copied in this country to the
effect that one of these illegitimate
sons of the late Milan, had been pro-
claimed king of Serbia at Belgrade by
the Austrian and German authorities.
The Vienna correspondence appears
to dispose of that report from Rome,

newspaper to be in London. employed
