Rules That Case Must
Rest upon One.

Magistrate w. n. Starcher, sitting in
Magistrate r. G. NiCewarner's court,
Saturday night presided at a prelimi-
nary hearing in the case Of John W..

served until 1:l5 p. M. Monday.
The case IL that resulting from
recent raid of the hotel by county and
state officers headed by John H. Ten
ney, deputy state commissioner Of
prohibition, who alleges that Duffy
made sales OF whiskey 10 certain per-
sons in the hotel late at night. The
chief witness for the state was young
man giving the name of f. X, Beckley,
who said he came here from Wheel
ing. He testified that Duffy sold
pint Of liquor to him at 2 o'clock in
the morning in the hotel. The state
endeavored to show thOrugh Beck
ley's testimony that two other sales OF
whiskey were made by Duffy the same
night, but it was contendod by the at
torney for the defendant that the pros
ecution would have to elect upon which
alleged transaction the defendant
should be held. This contention was
upheld by the magistrate and the
prosecuting attorney elected the sale
alleged to have been made by Duffy

MAYO WOMAN
LINGERING AT
DEATHS DOOR
Girl Who Attempted Suicide
Says She Doesn't Want
to Get Well.

A brokcn-hoartcd old woman Is ex'
pcctcd to arrive in Clarksburg today
to see her daughter, who is lying 10
st, Mary's hospital, her life hanging
by single thread.
The woman. Mrs. L. G. Mayo, o.
Bclington, received word Saturda,
that her daughter, Rita, had taken
deadly poison in Clarksburg Friday
afternoon.
Tho condition of the girl was un'
changed Saturday night and, owinA
to the nature of the action of thu
poison she took, physicians were un'
able to say what her chances were fol
recovery. She may linger for days
feeling the effects Of the poison, only
to the extent Of a sick stomach and
weakness, and then suddenly die.
The girl docs not want to get we'll,
When told Saturday night that shG
was going to recover the girl replied
simply: Il hope not" And then
her eyes filled with tears and she
ahielded her face with the bed
clothes. A rew minutes later she had
forgotten her condition and was
chatting merrlly with newspaper
men about friends in Clarksburg and
other places she had visited. A few
minutes later tho tears came back
to her eyes when she was asked why
she took the poison. MY life has
been full of trouble" she replied, and
her hands trembled like leaf as sh6
wiped the persplratlon from her
brow.
"a expect my mother will be up to
see me Sunday, II she has found out"
she said n few minutes later. The
mention of mother seemed to carry
her thoughts back to days when she
had lnelt ut her mothers knee and
said her prayers before gazing to bed
The tears welled up in her eyes and
she was about to break down, but
the subject was changed to some.

minutes she was again chatting mer'

The Hoosier Plan is Simply This:
1. 81 puts any Hoosicr you select in your
home
.. 81 weekly quickly pays for it.
3. The Low Cash Price fixed by the fac
tory prevails strictly.
4. The sale is under direct supervision of
the Hoosier Company.
3. No interest. No extra fees.
6. Your money back If you are not delight
ed with your Hoosiers.
A choice still remains between "Hoosier
Beauty" (selected by 3 out of women) and
the "Hooser Wonder" But the numbers are
few and you cannot hope to get one If you
delay. You incur no obligation by coming,
so let other matters wait tomorrow while you

IN HER BARE FEET
A Little Mexican Girl Enjoys
COasting i'm Topeka.
The High Cost of Shoes Does
Not Keep Her Indoors.

The alleged childhood joys of coast
ing and "goin' barefoot" have been
celebrated by many a skillful and I'M
skillful writer. until they have become
traditional as youthful recreationS.
One of the long standing harbingers
of spring has been the barefoot boy,
and the trademark of winter is a kid
with a sled.
But there have been rev youngsters
who thought of combining the two
pleasures at the same time. Tuesday
afternoon, while the wind was begin
ming to grow cutting and the mercury
was dropping rapidly, two Mexican
children on East Second street, with
a homemade sled, were getting what
amusement out of the vehicle they
could. sliding along the ice in the gut
ter, and the hard-frozen snow which
lay in a thin film on the parking.
One of the little Mexicans was a boy,
seeming to be some seven or eight
years old. the other was a little girl
who could not have been more than
five. And the little girl, tramping
thru the snow and taking her turn at
pulling the sled, was Darefooted. Not
a sign of a shoe or a stocking appear
ed on her thin little legs.
Shy as a wild animal. she was at
first mute under questioning, but ask
ed repeatedly where her foot gear war
she admitted that "Yo no tiengo" Il
have none), and then went on uncon-
cernedly with the sleighriding party.

Biggest Problem Before Public
in the Next Ten Days.
Topeka Has Only a Limited
Supply on Hand Now.
CONDITIONS TO GET WORSE
Only Moderation Can Solve the
Local Situation.
One Dealer Has Not a Lump for
His Retail Trade.

The coal shortage, according to one
Of the local dealers, is going to be the
biggest question before the public in
fhc next ten days. 1T is the worst
ever" said II. L Peppmeyer this
morning The blame for the present
conditions. according to two of the
dealers. J. r. Billiard and Peppmeyer,
l. laid rather heavily on the car short
age. Mines in Burlingame and Usage
CITY. according to telephone meSSag es
this morning, have the coal, but have
not the cars. and are unable to see
any cars ahead. for at least two days
There is a limited supply of coal
coming into Topeka. Most of it, how
ever. is the lump and domestic sorts,
which is unsuitable for making steam,
and the purchasers of steam coal,
which includes slack. mill and nut
coal. are hardest pinched. They are
using today all the coal, of any sort
that they can get. Lump and domestic
coal, and even mine run, the material
which is taken from the mines with
out even being screened, is welcome
Short on Contracts.
One dealer stated that he had no
coal for the retail trade whatever
that all he had was going to fill his
contracts for steam coal. And you
can't take money and 90 out and
buy coal in large quantities. he said.
IT'S a question of getting it thru chan
ncls previously arranged for, in other
words, contracts.
4 have a limited supply just at
present, but if 1 don't get more at
once. my supply Of the southern Kan
sas coal Will be exhausted in two
days" said J. b. Billiard.
good many of the smaller con-
sumers of the domestic coal have a
small amount stored, but it is the
famine of steam coal that is worrying
everybody concerned in the coal stu
alton.
Conditions Get Worse.
That they have no surplus of coal
is the unanimous statement of the
dealers interviewed on the subject
and that the shortage looks as if it
were going to tighten up instead of
grow easier, is also their decided opin-
ion. The cold snap has vastly in
creased the demand for coal and has
added a severe strain at a time when
The heavy call could hardly be met
Prices are high enough now" said
one dealer And another suggested
that a mere application of the law of
supply and demand to the situation
would show that the prices are bound
TO go higher before they go lower.
The prices are being raised at the
mines for the merchants who are for
tunate enough to get coal at all, and
naturally the retail prices will follow
suit.
That there will probably be no seri-
Gus suffering if the cold spell is tenn
porary and gives way immediately to
warmer weather. but that a continual
ton of the low temperature would re-
suit IN decidedly severe suffering
among the poorer people who are un-
able to lay in any supply of coal for
emergencies, is the way the matter is
sized up by the Provident association.
