Evans' Poet Picked as Pension Commissioner
President Roosevelt appoints Eugene F Ware as Pension Commissioner, surprising Kansas Republicans who saw Ware as a poet not a politician. The article notes Ware’s literary fame and ties to Roosevelt, plus a humorous anecdote about how Kansas learned of the selection. It also mentions an obituary of an oyster counterman, and Babcock urging tariff reform ahead of the next campaign with Cable taking a leadership role in the Democrats.

Testimony In Habeas Corpus Case No 114702
Judge Nash recalls the habeas corpus case involving Margaret V. Taylor and Frances L. Taylor Jr. The child, claimed to be held from its father, was not within Hamilton County jurisdiction, so the court dismissed the proceedings. Frances Taylor testified that the child was with the grandmother in Fernbank, then taken via streetcar to be with sister Clara, with a New York postmarked letter from that sister. The plan to remove the child was said to be by the mother and sisters for the child’s best interest.
