My way Of teaching piano or or

others. Out OF every four hours
study, one hour is spent entirely
aDdy from the keybodrd--learning
something about Harmony and The
Laws of Music. This Is an awful
shock to most teachers of the "old
school," who still think that learn
ing piano is solely problem Of
finger gymnastics. When you do
go to the keyboard, you accomplish
t,oice as much, because you under

REGULATION
MEASURE WINS FAVOR

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The sem
ate agricultural committee today Or
dered favorable report on the new
Kenyon Kendrick bill regulating the
meat packing industry.
The vote was unanimous in eavor of
reporting the measure, Chairman Gron
ma said.
The federal livestock commission
would be set up by the measure to
regulate packers through a system OF
|revocable registration.
The new measure was drafted fol
lowing an agreement between big
packers and Attorney General Palm
er, by which the packers were to di-
vorce their allied industries.
The license system in the original
bill, which was criticized by the pack
ers, is changed in the new bill so that
regulation is achieved by ''revocable
registrations" Gronna said he would
report the bill in a few days and that
senate action would be pressed at the
earliest possibility.

Topeka has treat in store tomor-

be sunshine, a crisp GOODNESS. roads
are in good shape near Topeka, and
the chances are excellent for some
very beautiful displays of autumn
foliage in the country. And there
will probably be frost tonight which
will kill all vegetation. The temper
ature is expected to go to near freez-
ing tonight-somewher between 80
degrees and 35 degrees. House plants
over which the neglectful housewife
doesn't throw the old calico apron will
be minus in the morning. Some late
tomatoes will also fall victims to Jack
Frost. But the corn, the alfalfa and
the sorghum are far enough advanced
in this section of the state that a kill

killing frost, due tonight. is a week

End of First Half in Topeka Kansas
City Game.

At the end of the first half, the score
in the Topeka Kansas City high school
game on Washburn athletic field to-
day was Z to z.
The field was muddy and the game
was slow but a huge crowd packed
the bleachers to witness the high
school contest and that which was to
follow between Washburn college and
Baker university.
The Baker aggregation, accompan-
led by about $50 boosters, marched
onto the field with the band at 2:40
o'clock. The Methodists have come
into the Ichabod camp with the
avowed intention of winning victory,
for if they lose it will spoil their
chances for the conference champion
ship.
There were no especially remark
able plays in the first halr OF the high
school game, but it appeared that it
will be close thruout.
The score at the end of the third
period in the football game between
Topeka high school and Kansas City,
Kan, was IA to Z in favor of Topeka.
The game is being puayed this after
noon on the Washburn field.

IDENTIFIED BY MASONIC CARD.
Body of Former Major of Army Found
Near Alexandria, Va.

Washington. Oct. 23.-The body of
a man, found last night between
Washington and Alexandria, Va, was
identified by the police and agents of
the war risk insurance bureau today
as Frank NJ. Scanland of Louisville,
KY, a former major in the army and
during the war one of the attaches of
the American commission to Italy.
Identification was accomplished
thru cards and letters found on the
battered and bruised body which the
police believe had laid for three days
in clump of underground. While
admittedly without a clue, the police
said that in their investigation of
Major Scanland's death they were
working on the theory that he was
lured to a lonely spot and beaten to
death.

Be Acquitted.
BOTH SIDES REST TODAY

Examination of prospective jurymen
in the Rufe King case has been post
poned until Monday, when a third
venire of fifty men will report in the
Usage county district court, according
to J. j. Schenck, Kings attorney. who
returned to Topeka Friday night.
When the second list of forty men was
exhausted, both sides rested until more
men could be obtained.
The state has only one peremptory
challenge left. The defense has four.
1t is hoped that a jury may be selected
by Monday night and that the case
will go to trial Tuesday morning, or
not later than Tuesday afternoon.
-Four Days Examinations.
Four days of this week were con-
sumed in the examinations. None of
the jurymen have been accepted by
either side for a certainty. A great
many were disqualified because they
said they had read of the case and
formed an opinion as to Kings guilt
or innocence. Many more were ex-
cused because of sickness in their
homes. Many were disqualified be-
cause they said they did not believe in
convicting a man on circumstantial
evidence.
Certain King Will Go Free.
Schenck said today he felt certain
that King would be acquitted because
the evidence against him is purely cir
cumstantial. He scoffed at the idea
that the skeletons dug up in Maple
Hill could possibly be identified. 1t is
also apparent that the defense has
some surprises to spring at the trial
which the attorneys are not yet willing
to make public.
Nearly a year has been occupied in
preparing the former liveryman's de-
fense. This has involved trips to Ok.
