 The veto of items totaling $220,000 now included in appropriation bills awaiting the governors signature was recommended by M. J. Harrison. chairman of the legislative Budget Committee, in report to the gov ernor. The report did not suggest the items to be cut, but showed that the anticipated revenue is only $3,210,O 900. including S130,000 which the franchise tax is expected to yield, and $S0,00O to be raised by the fire marshal law The report says that the Legislature made appropriations amounting to $3,- 439,663, which must come from the general revnue fund, and an additional $646,432.2 ill deficiency appropria- tions. The expected revenue does not include the $750000 note issue. The report urges that the proposed note issue be used to take up deficiency appropriations which are to be paid out of the general revenue fund, the S10G,000 appropriation for the propos- ed new administration building for the State Normal at Conway, the $40,200 appropriation for the boys and girls industrial schools and $30000 for in terest on the bonds. About S100,000 will remain if the $750,OO0 note issue is used as suggested.
 Although several of the appropria- tion bills have been presented to the governor, he has signed none except deficiency appropriations, and said that he will sign no appropriations un- til all have been presented to him.

HIS AIDE IN UNIFORM
Governor Capper Allows L. NJ. PEN
well to doll Up" for T. r.

Governor Cappe- has gone to Lin
coin, Neb., with full military escort
to aid eight other governors in well
coming Col Theodore Roosevelt 1t
is the first time since the governor
has entered his office two and a half
years ago that he has appeared in
public with a military aide in full
regalia.
Col. L. NJ. Penwen of Topeka, a
member of the governors official staff
will appear in the Roosevelt reception
wearing yards and yards of gold
His uniform was purchased five years
ago when Governor Capper named
the Topeka undertaken and lodge man
as a member of his official staff
When Governor Capper entered
office. he retained Penwell on his off,
cial staff, but gave notice that it
would be unnecessary to wear dress
up military toys at any public func-
ton. 1t was a sad disappointment.
A perfectly proper uniform for the
governors aide costs several hundred
dollars and the governors decree
spoiled number of functions which
would have been enlivened with mill
tary pomp and glory. This week, tho,
governors from nine states will well
come Colonel Roosevelt when he visits
Lincoln Governor Capper, in order
to be perfectly proper and maintain
the standing of Kansas in the rank of
states, took Aide Penwell on the trip.
And Aide Penweu took a trunk full
OF military uniforms, all of which are
sufficiently gorgeous to maintain the
dignity of the state on any occasion

This step, however. will not be i'm

following the lead of her allies, will
recognize the new regime under Con-

For the moment the abdication
means that the allies are going to have
fuller cooperation from Greece, the
thing they were unable to wiring from
the obdurate and pro-German Con-
stantine and the first evidence of this
will come from allied control of the
rich harvests of Thessaly. These har-

in large measure the problem of VIC

Athens will be retained and this will

CITY MUST MAKE GOOD

X. & L. of S. Home.

Topeka's business men are facing a
problem in complying with requests
of the Knights and Ladies of Security
in furnishing land for the lodges
half million dollar home and hospital
in Topeka Believing at first that GER
tain tracts of land for which they had
obtained options would satisfy the
lodge, the business men estimated the
cost, about $4,000, and were prepared
to guarantee that sum and buy the
land.
Then when a committee headed by
S. E. Cobb met the Knights and
Ladies of Security commission, ap-
pointed to select the site, they were
confronted with a counter proposition
of obtaining much more valuable land
valued at more than 100000. Wheth-
er this can be done is prOblematical
Mr. Cobb this afternoon is endeav-
oring to arrange a meeting for to-
night with the commission and a
number of prominent business men
of Topeka. If such a meeting cannot
be arranged for tonight, an effort
will be made to hold it tomorrow
noon at the Chamber of Commerce.
The knights and Ladies of Security
want a definite answer not later than
tomorrow night.
