Governor Stubbs practically endkess Attorney General Jonn 8, with connivance with the violators ace on the prohibitory law in the latest chapter in the controversy between the two officials over the question as to Whether or not J. B. Howse shall ‘be subpoenaed, “You certainly are entitled to the hearty support of all organizations of that character (liquor clubs), and of all persons who believe in clubs ‘selling beer openly every bar’ in Kansas,” says the governor, in a letter to Mr. Daw son given out last night. The govern or also states that in his opinion Daw son did more damage to the effective enforcement of the prostibutory law during the first four months of his administration that can be repaired in the next two years, without ex treme good fortune. In reply to Mr. Dawson’s statement that he will not subpoena Mr. House and compel him to to what he knows of violations of the prohibitory law the governor saves he will bring a mandamus proceeding in the supreme court as soon as the papers can be prepared. The govern or also states that he will petition the supreme court to investigate the con senta of the letter written to Mr. Dawson by Mr. House which Dawson has stated is of too personal a nature to turn over to the governor. He will ask the court to determine as to its contents. “In suppressing this evi dence,” gave the governor, speaking of Mr. Mouse's letter, “from the chief executive of the state of Kansas you are violating your oath of office in which you swear that you will sup port the constitution.” Athos, who was advertised to throw le a Terocious ball from some nearby farm between ball games at Forest park yesterday, came forward at the sproper time, and delivered the goods, with the exception of the ferocity of the boll. In fact, he appeared be fore the appointed time, clad in a astier hat and wrestling trunks and drank much soda water at a refresh ment stand, the one who knows he has an easy job and easy money be fore him. There was nothing brutal, lper suggestive of the Spanish bull [feht in the performance. The Mexi can wrestler was smiling and good natured, and so was the bull, which was ted in and tied with a long tariat to a stake driven in the pitcher's box Athos spent some time sparring to a satisfactory held, and a bull with a Mean disposition might have been of fended, but not the one on the pro gramme yesterday. It displayed the mild surprise of a well-pred milk cow at appearing before so large a crowd, also some curiosity to understand why a man without a shirt should dance around and try to grab its horns. But that was all, and when the Mexican finally got his shoulder under the [bulls wore, and a two-hand held on one -off Worn, there was nothing to it; the bull's big neck was twisted, and it went down on its back, where it showed a disposition to remain, un ‘til the dartne torreador came and twisted it tall, when it arose, to be led meekly from the grounds. Lathrop R Bullene, of Kansas City announced the marriage of his daughter, Ruth, to Russell Thork morton, of Kansas City, in the Kan sas City Star yesterday. The mar riage occurred June 24, and the Star stated that the marriage was kept secret until yesterday. The wedding did not prevent the bride from caus ing her father to redeem a promise to send her to Europe. She is now on the tour. When she returns early in December she and her husband, who remained at home, will decide where they are to live. The bride's mother was Miss Byna Ray, before her marriage to Lathrop Bullene, and during her girlhood visited in Atchi son at the home of Miss Florence Guerrier, who has since married W. . Smith, and lives in Beaumont, Texas. She was a remarkably beau tiful woman, and has been Hiiing in New York for about ffteen years. Lathrop Bullene and their daughter, Huth, have always lived in Kansas City Gordon's Associate Players, who are here for 2 week's engagement, opened up at the Airdome last night in a four-act drama, “A Woman's Devo tion.” A very large and appreciative audience turned out to greet them and they all went away perfectly sat isfed, and from the reports around town the citizens can expect a very good week of pleasure. The bill for tonight in, “The Sweetest Girl in, Dixie,” a four-act comedy filled with; very interesting situations and a good, love story running throughout The work of the two negro characters in this bill is well worth the price of ad mission. There will be a complete change of specialties between acts, the feature of which will be Sam C. Majors’ impersonation of Cliff Gordon in his famous “German Political Ad dress.” Atchison friends of Prof. T. J. Ros son, principal of the high school last year, will be very sorry to know that he has had his injured be amputated in a hospital in La Junta, Cob, to day. Several years ago, while taking part in some athletic contests, he in jured his knee. It continued to annoy him and, a few weeks before the close of the school term last spring, he went to a Kansas City hospital where an operation was performed. Being advised to try a drier climate he went to La Junta. The limb did not im prove but continued to pain him more, so he entered the hospital a few days ago. An examination showed a serious tubercular affection, which made amputation necessary. Are you regarded as a fair man? An Atchison man felt he had not been treated right, and, in looking up the matter, found Matt Miller, manager of the Home Ice Co. was the man who could straighten the affair out he said, “Well, it will be all right; Mart Miller always does the aqtare thing.” That's as fine a compliment as a man could wish, and it came from a man who has known Mart Miller for over thirty years. More old-time stuff has been un earthed on the old Massassou site: a meat grinder, whiskey faucet, a stove tea covered with tobacco quids and a iekeinkaemper pop bottle, wm Hekeinkaemper has been dead about thirty-five years and the bottle is the old-fashioned kind when corks were used with a wire across the top. Fritz Hekeinkaemper says that this is the third bottle of the kind in existence that he knows of.
