sible Epidemic in Topeka.

Altho no new cases of smallpox
have been reported since Friday. Doc
tor Brown is still apprehensive about
the possibility of an epidemic in To-

having it here. 1t is just sheer luck
that we haven't had it start already"
Doctor Brown said this morning.

in hundreds in the offices of their own
physicians and in the office of the
health department, but there are not
enough of them being vaccinated
yet" Doctor Brown said today.

In introducing the subject of land
armament, Secretary Hughes said

was to maintain a small army. Sec

land armament" he said.
1.-The proposals of the American
government regarding the limitation
of naval armament" said Secretary
Hughes. have been under cOnsidera-
ton by the committee of the pleni-

the subcommittee the matter is
progressing favorably."
Regarding far eastern questions,
Mr.. Hughes added that while most i'm
portant declaration have been made,
there was nothing at the moment to
report to the plenary session, but
added:
Il think I am justified in saying
that our expectations with reference
to the expedition and the considera-
ton of these questions have been more
than realized"
Referred to Committee.
Returning to land ornaments. Mr.
Hughes said that at the time of the
armistice there were upwards of
4.2O0,000 Americans under arms and
today the regular establishment num-
bered less than 10000 men.
However. we fully recognize" he
continued. the special difficulties
that exist with reference to military
forces elsewhere" and he invited all
the delegates to present their views
fully on the question.

meet at the call of the chair. The
whole question of limitation of land

William Farnum, the Fox star, now
at the Palm in Drag Harlan" a pic
ture that has received the hearty ac-
claim of all Farnum admirers. Tho
star gets back into sombrero and hol-
ster in the title role and creates a
character that makes a brilliant ad
dition to his already long list of screen
personages. AS the famous "Pardo
two-Gun man." Farnum gives many
exhibitions OF his skill with a. six-Gun
and is said to have spent many hours
of practice in drawing his guns to get
the lightning like rapidity which tho
part of Drag" Harlan required. The
appellation of Drag" was won because
of the hero's peculiar trick OF allow
ing his hand to hover over his pistol
butt before drawing which gave tho
appearance of dragging his gun out
of the holster.

 A woman went to her provision dealer to pay her bill Knowing the man pretty well she said, MT. Blank, I had quite a laugh over the way someone in your store spells salmon, and she pointed out on the bill the item '3 lbs. psalmon." Mr. Blank looked at it and said in tone of contempt for such ignorance: That's the work of new bookkeeper, but he'll have to learn to spell correct ly if he expects to stay with me. Let me correct the bill Mrs. N"
 Taking a pen he drew several lines through the word and wrote above it complacently handing back the bill, ''Pll teach that bookkeeper how to spell sam mon when he comes in or tell him to find a new place"
 Not Quito Alike.
 A rather successful school ma'am has for one of her ambitions never to look her profession so that people can guess it when they see her. So whenever she goes on a vacation she poses as a sten- ographer, clerk or member of sonie other profession than her own. When she left at Easter time she said she was going "to be a widow for a week
 She succeeded in carrying off her pose successfully too until the day before she started home Then on that day she overheard the colored elevator boy talk ing to a man she had met. . 50 she an a wid6w?" he said.
 "Yes,'' the man nodded his head.
 T ain't surprised, the boy retorte6 with conviction. "I said that the day wheT she came. I say that woman either 2 widow or schoolteacher. Both of '6n ! always have such a pert, T have bosset 1 the world way"
