HALL GETS FIVE MONTHS.
Convicted of Holding Up Pete Pan.
drew at Victory LUNCH

Herbert w. Hall, who confessed to
holding up Pete Pandrew, an employe
of the Victory lunch room, near the
fair grounds recently, was sentenced
by Judge James A. Mcclure to serve
five months in the penitentiary at hard
labor. He will first be taken to Lam
sing for treatment for a social dis
ease, it was said.
Hall told the court when he was sem
fenced that he has a wife and two
months-old baby living in Texas The
wife does not know his whereabouts,
he said. She will be informed of his
sentence by the court.
Virginia Graham, a pretty girl al
legged to be Halls accomplice, is still
in the county Jail awaiting trial. The
efforts of her mother who came here
to set her out on bond, were unsuc-
cessful. Hall told the court he met
Mrs. Graham at a movie show in Chi
cago and that they went to st. Louis,
then to Kansas City and then to To-
peka. During this time he said, they
had lived together as man and wife.
Mrs. Graham has a husband in Illinois,
it was said.
Pandrew was held up and robbed
one night by Hall while the Greek
was out walking with Mrs. Graham.

Since the August primary Repub-

way for women willing to serve to
make complete the first recognized
political organization of women of the

HE OBJECTS TO PETITION.
Don't Want Electric Power Line Built
From Abilene to, Florence,

Paul D. Schreiver of Florence today
filed a petition with the Kansas Court
of Industrial Relations, asking them to
deny the Riverside Power and Gas
company of Abilene the right to build
an electric power transmission line
from Abilene into the city of Florence.
Schreiver operates the electric light
plant of Florence, and objects to the
competition of the Riverside company.

county, called Thursday at the
Chamber OF Commerce by Mrs. Festus
Foster, vice chairman of the Shawnee
county central committee.
"Our organization is as complete as
we hoped for" Mrs. Foster said.
EVERY committee woman has worked
to instill party enthusiasm until I'm
sure that women of the county have
never been more interested in political
affairs-and therefore in national af-
fairs-than they are now.
Nearly every one of the sixty-five
precinct committee women reported at
the special meeting.
Five mems names are included on
the list of the women's organization,
strange as it may seem. The reason
for the strsengeness is that Shawnee
county elected sixty men as precinct
committeeman and five women as
committeeman" AS the county or
ganization desired that in no precinct
should women hold entire sway, it was
necessary to place five men on the
voraen's organization to supplement
the five@women in the mems organiza-
ton.
Soon after the primary an execu-
tive committee of twelve women was
formed, and later an advisory couhcii
of several times that number was ap-
pointed Under the leadership of Mrs
Foster every part of the county was
visited. including the best residence
districts of the city, the topeka DOT
toms" the suburbs and the FARMS 10

General plans for the remainder OF
the campaign, with consideration OF

meeting Monday night at the audi
+oriuno were objects of the meeting OF

TO the conversation, essayed a grunt
from the rear seat. Instantly, to
Shirley Summers vast surprise. her
host grunted also; whereupon George
Sea Otter broke into a series of
grunts and cultural ordinations
which evidently appeared quite in
teIligible to her host. for he slowed
down to five miles an hour and cooked
one ear to the rear; apparently he
was profoundly interested in whatever
information his henchman had to inn
part. When George Sea otter finished
his harangue, Bryce nodded and once
more gave his attention to tossing the
miles behind him.

to the car, for deviation OF foot
from the wheel-rut on the outside of
the road would have sent them hur-
Ting over the grade into the deep
timbered canyons below. BY reason of
the fact that Bryce's gaze never
wavered from the road Immediately
in front of the car, she had chance
to appraise him critically while pre-
tending to look past him TO the
tumbled. snow-covered ranges to their
right.
She saw big, supple. powerful
man of twenty-five or six, with the
bearing and general demeanor of one
many years his elder. His nose was
high, of medium thickness and just a
trifle long-the nose of a thinker.
His ears were large, with full lobes--
the ears of a generous man. The
mouth, full-lipped but firm, the heavy
jaw and square chin. the great hands
(most amazingly free from freckles)
denoted the man who would not avoid

Upon their arrival at the rest-house,
Bryce during dinner was very atten-
