SUNDAY WAS SUMMER DAY
Temperature Reached "A Degrees,
Highest Ever Recorded Here on
February 13-Golf, Baseball,
Motoring and Picnics We're the
Order of Day in Topeka.

Golf, baseball, motoring, hiking, and
picnics were the order of the day for
the "summeriest' February Sunday
which Topeka has ever seen.
Everybody and his best girl, or
somebody else's best girl, wanted to
enjoy the unreasonable delights of the
day. Everything that would roll on
wheels was on the road. Every road
about Topeka was full of pleasure
drivers in every sort of vehicle.
The golf courses about Topeka were
crowded all day with fans who well
coined the chance at an early warm-up
toward getting into form for their
summer game
1t was reported that there was an
honest -to-goodness baseball game, with
bleachers and rooters 'neverything, on
at the college diamond at st. Mary's,
and every vacant lot in Topeka which
has kids in proximity thereto, was the
scene of a game of lone old cat
The temperatures yesterday broke
all records. At o'clock IN the even
ing the thermometer stood at IA de-
grees, the highest temperature on that
date or so early in the season ever
recorded in Topeka The temperature
was degrees higher than the high
est ever recorded on that date in
65 degrees in 1888.
The average temperature for the
twenty-four hour period was &c de-
grees above normal, and just equal to
the normal temperatures for a day in
mid-April.

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 14.-Mrs. Eva

that she obtained them in Atlanta, ac

One Legislator Feared
Bounty On Rabbits Would
Endanger the Lawmakers
Another Tried Include Chncb Bugs>and Third De
manded Coroner's Certi6cates-AnnuaI Battle Over
Bill Brings About Usual Comedy.

House members today staged their
biennial battle on the favorite field
tho coyote and jack robbit bounty
bill. Members who sit meekly in their
seats during an entire session and tim
idly answer roll calls, today became
high powered orators. They rushed
into clincheS when the fight started,
waved their arms and lifted their
voices that every one in the galleries
might hear. Then trained takers and
house humorists stepped in and helped
give the visitors one of the most en-
joyable hours of the session.
Mr.. SanderSon, who came to the
legislature from Chautauqua county
down near the edge of the oil fields
is responsible for the 1921 jack rabbit
bounty rumpus. Maybe the mild man
nered Mr. Sanderson feared the jack
rabbits would eat the oil derricks.
Anyway, he didn't want the prospec-
tors frightened by the night yowlS of
the wolves and coyotes. So he pro-
posed law on the subject. And since
his plan called for the payment of
money for scalps, there was an instant
uprising.
Endanger Legislators.
Just when the thing got fairly un-
derway, Piper, of Montgomery county,
nearly broke up the sitting. He de-
clared his undying opposition to the
bill-and Piper is a near next door
neighbor to Sanderson. Piper didn't
mind spending money. But he frankly
stated that he feared a reward for
rabbit sca1ps might endanger the lives
of legislators.
Representative Hope, of Finney
county, didn't want the burden of a
rabbit tax dumped on his county. He
said it would cost Finney county $1S,-
900 a month. He preferred keeping
the money in the treasury and telling
the rabbits to do their durndest.
Cloud, of Kingman, was serious.
He wanted the rabbit provision elimt-
nated-afld almost succeeded in his
fight. In earnest argument he told
the house that Kansas counties would
pay bounties on all the rabbits in
Oklahoma, Colorado and Nebraska.

TO BANK SAVINGS
Topeka Life Company Buys
Bankers Life of OIathe.
POIicyhOlders To Be Protected
Good Will $4,000.

The Bankers Life Insurance COM
pany, of Olathe, which went into the
hands of a receiver following the fail
ure of the Pettyjohn interests. has
been purchased by the Bank Savings
Life Insurance company, of Topeka,
according to E. H. Lupton, president,
and E. E. Sallee. secretary, of the To-
peka concern. The consideration was
$4,000 for the good wilP' of the
Olathe company, and the sale is sub
ject to the approval of the Wyandotte
county district court.
The Bank Savings company will as
sumo all assets and liabilities of the
defunct company, it was stated, and
the policyholders will be fully pro-
tected, their policies remaining in full
force under the same provisions under
which they were taken out, unless the
insured desires to change to Bank
Savings policy.
The assets of the company, it was
said, amount to about $4,000 and its
insurance in force to about 81, 500, 900.
In the petition brought by the
stockholders asking receivership, 1t
us alleged that the company had the
hit to issue 100000 in certificates
,deemable over a period of twenty
years and that $4,000 of the amount
had been issued. Sallee said today
that the Bank Savings company is not
assuming these certificates. They will
be paid off, he said, if there is enough
surplus in the treasury of the defunct
company-otherwise they will not.
The Bankers Life Insurance COM
pany of Kansas was a mutual COM
pany organized in Olathe in 1917 by
Charles Pettyjohn, who was president.
1t was thrown into receivership Feb
ruary 1. and H. H. Motter was named
receiver. The Bank Savings Life is a
widely recognized firm with state
wide confidence and trust.

North Carolina Senator Wrathy
Over Recent Decision.

Washington, Feb. IA Federal
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands, of
Chicago was impeached in the house of

charged him with high crimes and
misdemeanors'' in connection with his
acceptance of the position of supreme
arbiter of baseball at a salary of $42,-

Should the house decide to institute
proceedings against Judge Lands on
the basis of Mr.. Welty's charges, a

house would be held and a decision

Bill in Congress Upsets Good
Road Construction.
Retention Of Auto License
Money in State Treasury. (

Kansas may lose approximately
S3,O0O,O00 in federal aid for road con-
struction provided in a bill passed by
the lower house of congress, unless the
road bill now pending in the state leg
islature is amended to require reten-
ton of automobile license funds in the
state treasury rather than return to
counties.
From w c. Markham.
This information was received he -e
today by NJ. w. Watson, state high
way engineer. from w. G. Markham,
secretary of the Kansas highway COM
mission, who is now in Washington
representing the states in urging pas
sage of the bill calling for 100000
900 in federal aid. The federal bureau
of roads has ruled, according to Mark
ham, that the automobile license
money must be retained in the state
treasury to call it a state fund and
obtain federal aid.
Markham advises that Senators Cur
tbs and Capper of Kansas have strong
hope of getting the federal aid bill
thru the senate. 1t passed the house
by a vote of five to one. The bill MAJ
be amended in the senate so as to re-
quire the states to make an appropra-
ton directly to equal the amount given
them by the government.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1921-02-14

Finally an optional clause crept into
the bill. A motion to strike out the
enacting clause fell by the wayside.
The army of defient enemies of the
long cared inhabitants of the short
grass country was winning.
Then Norman of Doniphan, a
banker, took the floor. Norman has
sat thru two regular sessions and a
special session and said nothing except
to vote as his conscience moved. He
has done a lot of good clear thinking,
but hasn't haranged the members
with his ideas. But since the house
seemed determined to pass a bounty
bill he wanted the pocket gopher put
on the list of contraband livestock.
The house voted down his amendment.
Demands Coroner Certificates.
Hall of Sheridan county wanted the
records kept straight and regular. He
offered an amendment providing that
bounties should be paid only when
coroner's Gel ificates accompanied the
dead animals or their scalps.
Walter E. (Buster) Brown of Atchi-
son didn't believe the bill went far
enough. He presented an amendment
providing that bounties be paid on
chinch bugs. But the farmers were
not in a frame of mind to receive sug-
gestionS from paved street agricultur-
lists. And Browns plan to make the
bill a bit broader didn't get enough
votes to win.
Another motion was made to strike
out the enacting clause. But this Mr..
Sanderson person had his hand on the
wheel and the bill went thru without
whistling or stopping for crossings
The bill was recommended for pass
age. Its recommendation, tho, is not
final passage. There are a number of
house members waiting for the bill on
third reading. 1t may be necessary
for Mr.. Sanderson and his friends to
put more sand on the track before
Tuesdays voting. And it may be that
after these many years of hard fight
ing, much oratory and free exchange
of unkind remarks, that a fat price is
to be put on the lop-eared canaries, of
the plains
