to do the work with spades. These
youths attribute the cave-in to the
work of the spades. The cave fell in
where the spading was done and the
spade marks are still visible, the boys
stated.
This cave was only one of other
similar death traps located along the
kaw river. A second cave was started
on Wards creek near its entrance
to the river but was never completed.
Several Caves Along River.
Richard EdeIblute, of $50 Broad
moor street, stated that several caves
were located along the Kaw river
He said that he had knowledge of one
on the river, which had a depth of
six feet, and was fifteen feet long
and fifteen feet wide. 1t was used
mostly during the summer months. 1t
was furnished with rugs. a cookstove
and numerous other articles of fur
niture. The roof of the cave was
supported by railroad ties and drift
logs.
Boys from many parts of Topeka
congregated in the vicinity of the
caves and many bitter battles ensued
Large weeds were used as spears. Wa
ter fights were also held. Opposing
sides would attempt TO capture boats
Fist fights and duckings were a part
of these battles.

While your hair must have frequent
and regular washing to keep it beautiful
it cannot stand the harsh effect of ordi-

soaps soon dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
That is why discriminating women
