Camp Doniphan, Fort Sill, Okla,
Oct. 22.-Topeka's own Battery A won
itself another laurel here on liberty
loan day by winning an artillery con-
test by default, and making record
in time Tor accomplishing the feat.
The contest, which was part of an ath-
letic program set for this day con-
sisted in Harvesting and hitching a
gun section, consisting of a piece and
a caisson, dashing 100 yards, going
into action and firing one round. Bat
terry A did this in the face of ter
rifle sand storm in five minutes and
forty-eight seconds. During one of
the practices the feat was done in
four minutes and forty seconds.
The record of the battery during
the practice was too much for the
nerve of the other regiments here
and none showed up for the contest.
The best time the others had been
able to make was eight minutes. The
men who took part in this contest
were Sergt. William Link, Sergt. Robt.

real sick person shortly. At first you
feel dull misery in the kidney region,
you suffer from backache, sick head

tongue coated and you feel rheumatic
twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat drink lots of water;

LEAVES PEN FOR WAR
"Tcx' Schappcr, Notorious Yeggman
and Editor Enters Army.

Tex" Schapper, notorious yegg-
man and accused of participation in
various bank robberies, has won
war" pardon. Schapper was given
national military service. He is an
editor of the Square Deal. the Off
cial publication at Lansing state
prison.
Action of Governor Capper in ex-
tending clemency to Schapper is a
second move in the direction of Civ
ing the notorious prisoner a Chance"
During the Christmas holidays, Schap
per was given his first chance. With
25 other inmates of the prison, he
was released on his honor and per-
mitted to return to his home in Texas
for the holidays When the temper
airy paroles terminated, all of the men
except Schapper returned to Lansing.
In Texas, SO Schapper told prison
officials, he met some of his old as
sociates. He decided to violate the
states confidence and to refuse to re-
turn His action gave his case ma
tional prominence. When Warden
Codding sent a parole officer to
Texas to bring Schapper to the Kan
s&s prison, TEX" showed both speed
and adroitness. He went to a local
peace officer in the Texas town, sur
rendered, repented and promised
never to do it again. He was meek
submissive and penitent - Warden
Codding called it conscience stricken
when he was returned to the peni-
tertiary.
Recently Schapper has been most
Industrious in his efforts to land a
pardon. He succeeded when he wrote
Governor Capper a letter and prom
ised to enter the army service and
fight the Germans.
The Prussians stood my grand
father up against a stone wall in
Cologne in 1S4S," Schapper wrote
Governor Capper. "My father wore
the red coat of the British army be-
fore he came to America"
Schapper's plea was so insistent
that a pardon was granted on condi-
ton that the man actually go to
France in some branch of the ma
| tional military service. Schapper is
we'll educated, edited and published
the official prison paper and his edi-
| torials attracted much attention. He
was sent to the penitentiary several
years ago when convicted as a bank
rObber. He was believed to have been
a member of gang of yeggmen who
for several years conducted a most
successful loot on banks along the
! Kansas Nebraska line.
