WILSON GETS A JOB
Former Police Chief Has Charge of
Ripley Park Concessions.

Jim Wilson, former chief of police,
will be in charge of all concessions at
Ripey park the balance of the season
Announcement of the appointment of
wilson was made today by w. L. Por-
ter, commissioner of parks and play
grounds.
Wilson will not only be in charge of
the pop, popcorn and peanut stands
but also the swimming pool.
Porter is looking with much favor
on municipal control of all conces-
sions in city parks. In the spring, the
bids for the concessions at Gage park
were SO small that Porter decided to
take charge of them himself. He has
made double the money that would
have been collected if the bid had
been accepted
This has been an extraordinarily
hot season and we might not make
any money another year" said Porter
today. But it looks mighty good to
me. Ripley park will probably be
open next week. The appointment of
Wilson is only for the balance of the
season."
Bathing in the municipal swimming
pool at Gage park is more popular
than ever before in history. Twenty
temporary lockers were ordered built
today At o'clock Sunday morning
those wishing to take a swim had to
wait from fifteen to twenty minutes
for a locker.

IS TOPEKA STORY
Jerome Beatty Writes of Kan
sas Baseball Romance.
Story Appeared in August Num-
Der of McClure's.

Jerome Beatty, Kansan, newspaper
man. magazine writer and humorist
has broken the monotony of summer
fiction with another humorous story
of Kansas life, printed in the August
number of McClure's magazine.
The new story 1.-The Gee Whiz
Guy" is not only a Kansas story but
it is a story of Topeka in the good
old baseball days. when baseball uni
forms were as common as the olive
drab is today. 1t is written in the
usual swinging style of the author.
sparkling with humor, Swallowed by
the usual summer love scenes and ex-
but-the whole thing
turns out wrong, that is, wrong for
the lover of summer fiction.
The scene for the story is laid on
Kansas avenue, changing later to the
ball park, that used to be SO popular,
and later to the east. Local touches
in the story include references to the
Topeka State Journal and its sporty
editor, Kansas avenue. transfer sta
ton wehere the little Topeka waitress
held her first tryst with the ball
player from Junction City.
The author, Jerome Beatty, was for
years a resident of Kansas. Later he
was connected with the Kansas City
Star as reporter and then as desk
man" Three years ago he left the
Star and went to New York where he
started on the New York Mail. Later
he went to the New York Times, then
to Golfers. For a short time he acted
as private secretary to the governor of
New Hampshire and last year returned
to Golfers.
In all his newspaper and magazine
experience, Beatty has always been
one of the boys from home. He has
stuck to Kansas stories in his mag
azine work. Short stories OF
that breezy styie that makes sum m er
fiction bearable, have been his spec
ialty. During the last three years he
has contributed to Golfers, The Amer
lean, Leslies and McClures.

NOT interested
q. S. Pays No Attention to
Same Old Peace Gag.
ChancellOr's Attempt a Hollow
Sham, Washington Version.

Washington, July 30.-G m n
Chancellor Michaclis' peace interview
is regarded at the state department as
another German attempt to bolster up
public opinion at home, appeal to the
peace sentiment in enemy and neutral
countries and create dissension be-
tween the allies. At the Russian en-
correct in fact.
State officials say that while Ger
many attempts by innuendo to fasten
on France a vast campaign of con-
quest, with the hope CT making a
breach with tie new Russian democ-
racy, Michaelis makes no suggestion
that Germany herself has in any way
revised her war program or accepted
the principle of no annexation.
1.-The new attempt at peace is con-
sidered as hollow as the many others
which have always followed a sue
cessful offensive and which took their
most tangible form in the official
German peace offer of December IL.
The maneuver is viewed as similar
to that one which had the purpose of
getting the allies about a conference
table where Germany hoped to instill
differences between them and split up
the alliance At that time Ambas-
sador Bernstorff here was offering
feelers which could be repudiated at
will.
The government, it is stated, will
take no notice of the latest German
effort. Secretary Lansings speech,
altho delivered before the Michaelis
interview was published, is taken as
complete answer in stating that
peace can come only when the united
overthrwon the German military
system

TO EQUIP GUARDS
State Will Authorize 0rganiza-
ton of Home Units.
Kansas City, Kan, Is To Have
a Battalion.

First official authorization for or
ganization of home guards was given
today by Governor Capper when he
approved enlistment of 500 men for
special police patrol duty in Kansas
City, Kan. Approval of the home
guard plan followed visit to Topeka
by a delegation headed by Mayor
Harry A Mendenhall and Senator
James A. Getty.
1t is believed by members of the
Kansas City delegation that sufficient
volunteer enlistments will be secured
to properly protect all local industrial
plants. If new men are needed. it
is claimed that the constitution makes
sufficient provision for their call by
the governor Equipment for the
guards will be furnished by the state
and federal government. a formal
request for equipment will be sent
today to Newton D. Baker. secretary
of war. Members of the home guard,
thru local organizations, will prob
ably furnish uniforms.
To Form a Battalion
An entire battalion of 500 men will
be formed in Kansas City. Other
towns will probably. take early steps
to organize home guard companies,
following the mastering into federal
service of Kansas National Guard
units. Consent of the governor was
necessary to extend desired authority
to members of the home guards.
Members of the companies will be
allowed to carry firearms and will
police bridges. elevators. packing
plants and other property of public or
industrial character.
Forrest Railsback, representing the
Kansas City home guard organization,
came with the delegation which visit
ed the governor. Each of the men
in the battalion will be required to
give at least four hours service a
week, Railback told the governor.
More Organizations.
Plans for the organization of home
guard units have been under con-
sideration by the state council of de-
Tense. A number of towns have made
inquiries concerning organizations.
These organizations will probably be
perfected as soon as Kansas guard or
CARNATIONS are called into federal SER
vice August s. 1t is believed arrange
ments can be made for proper equip
ment of the organizations and men
in the local service will act under au-
thority from the governor in protect
ing local property interests.

FORM A NEW DRYDALE
Liquor Dealers Apply for Incorpora-
ton of Oasis Mile East of Old One.

Leavenworth, Kan, July 30.-In an
eleventh hour effort to save Drydale,
the saloon village across the river
from Leavenworth, saloonmen here
and others financially interested in
the retention of the oasis applied
before the Platte county court for the
incorporation of thirteen saloons
and six wholesale liquor houses into
a city.
A plat of the proposed city has
been drawn and was placed before
the county court, for approval or re-
lection. If approved, Drydale will
be made an addition to StilIings, an
incorporated town one mile to the
east.
Surveyors have already laid out lots
in Drydale which will be known as
'Riverview addition" of Stiliings
These will be offered for sale.
The recent order of President Will
son banishing saloons from within the
five mile zone of environments or
forts. except in incorporated cities,
is the reason for Drydale's wild
scramble for incorporation
