HAD A JOLLY TIME
Washburn Medics Given Their
Finishing Touches.
Graduating Class Guests at
Banquet Last Night.
N0TIRES031ESPEECIIES
Every One Was Happy and Good
Natured.
Dr. Otto Klene Elected Presi-denWf-Aiorani
Association. -
The 'finishing touches were given the
members of the graduating class from
the medical department of Washburn
college last night at Mills' tea room
In the form of a banquet such as has
seldom been equaled on a similar occa
sion In this city. The capacity of the
beautiful little tea room was taxed to
its utmost to afford seats for the hun
dred or more doctors, wives and sweet
hearts who were present to celebrate
the occasion.
The serious portion of the graduation
programme was carried out d urine the
earlier part of the day and those who
gathered at the banquet were there
for the sole purpose of enjoylnsr them
selves and making the occasion one
to be remembered with pleasure by
the members of the graduating class.
In the past on similar occasions the
doctors, old and new, have tarried
and the banquets which have lasted
nearly all night have not commenced
until a late hour.
Last night the order was reversed
and the festivities opened promptly at
7 o'clock and the lid was firmly af
fixed well before the last street car
Sad found its way to the barn for the
night, though at that the programme
was cut to permit it. The members
of the graduating class with their
sweethearts and wives were the guests
of honor last night, and wives is used
after due deliberation as five of the
thirteen graduating doctors are off of
the market as far as matrimonial fig
ures are concerned.
i Dr. J. E. Minney, for many years
vlean of the Kansas Medical college,
Vhich furnished the graduating ma
terial last night, acted as toastmaster
and exhibited a startling familiarity
with his position as well as the rec
ords of those who were . slated for
toasts. One gratifying feature about
the banquet was the fact that no one
came loaded with a cut and dried
supply of Information which he felt
In duty bound to unload on the mem
bers of the graduating class.
It is true that there was plenty
of advice proffered but the suggestions
were given in such a Jocund vein that
there is little chance that they will be
remembered seriously by the class
upon which they were Inflicted. The
speeches if they can be dignified by
the name amounted to an evening of
good natured Joking and Jollying.
Before all attempts at seriousness
had been abandoned Dr. Samuel Adams
paid a handsome tribute to the faculty
for their painstaking efforts in pre
paring the class to meet the trials of
the world as full fledged doctors. The
subject assigned him by the toast
master was "We are It." "We are
Next," the junior class subject was
handled by A. L. Weisgerber. Stanley
Reed for the class of 1910 spoke from
the subject. "We are on Our Way,"
and Benjamin Mayer took care of the
ireshmen end of the affair talking
from the subject, "In Embryo."
Dr. John Outland, who has always
been regarded as a pretty fair sort
of a fellow, added another pin to his
line last night and in the future will
be able to command a fee as an after
dinner speaker. His subject last night,
"A Placebo," suggests to some extent
the seriousness of-his talk. - - ...
Dr. 'Jacob HinTten of Strong--City,
one of the early graduates of the class
spoke from the subject, "One Among
the First Born." Dr. John C McClln
tock, one of the founders of the
school, who has never lost sight of
its growth and who is always to be
found among the banqueters on an
occasion such as that of last night,
answered to the toast. "The Instiga
tor." Dr. D. W. Storrs labeled out a bit
of good advice in handling the sub
ject, "Disappointment Makes One
Sore or Soar." The last place on the
programme was accorded to Dr. J. P.
Kaster who spoke from the toast,
"May We Ever Be Able to Serve a
Friend, and Noble Enough to Conceal
It." A number of extemporaneous
speeches were made by the various
members of the association as they
were called on by the toastmaster.
The music for the occasion was fur
nished by Calkins orchestra.
At the alumni meeting held at the
medical college during the afternoon
a number of special prizes were
awarded and officers elected for the
ensuing year.
Dr. J. C. McClintock presented each
of the members of the class with a
fine surgical case. Dr. S. G. Stewart's
prize on principle and practice of
medicine was won by Dr. Sam Adams.
Dr. Adams and Dr. H. P. Knowles
had high grade on gynecology. The
prize was given by Dr. Stephen Smith
of Grantvllle who had to decide the
winner by flipping a silver dollar. Dr.
Adams won the flip. All the rest of
the prizes were won by Dr. H. P.
Knowles. They were as follows:
Dr. W. S. Lindsay's prize on men
tal and nervous diseases. Dr. C. A. Mc
Gulre's special prize on internal medi
cine and the G. W. Stansfleld prize for
the student passing the highest grade
in obstetrics. The alumni officers are
as follows: Dr. Otto Klene, presi
dent; Dr. R. B. Stewart, treasurer;
Dr. L. R, Hyatt, secretary. . - -.

ADAMS GOES TO PRISON
Kansas Bigamist Says Ho Will Kill
Himself.
Colorado Springs, Colo., April 24. Dr,
pleaded guilty in the district court to
the .charge or Digamy ana was sen
tenced by Judge Morris to eighteen
months at hard labor In the peniten
tiary at Canon City and to pay a fine
of $500.
Soon after sentence Dr. Adams de
clared to Rev. C. B. Cross, his spiritual
adviser, that his pride could not stand
the disgrace and that he would kill
himself at the first opportunity.
"As a physician, he said, "I know
how to take life quickly and easily,
even with the crudest of Implements,
and I intend to end it all in death. I
expected this when arrested and have
my plans all laid, and no one is smart
enough to frustrate them."
Adams told the court that he had be
trayed a girl in Kansas and had mar
ried her -to give their child a name.
Then, too proud to admit his wrongdo
ing and marriage, he married his
fiancee of years, hoping to keep his
double life a secret. -
Adams testified that he had become
engaged to Miss Lulu RJchmeyer of
New Albany, Ind., in 1903, and had al
ways intended to marry her. He said
that while practicing medicine in Pitts
burg, Kan., he had been intimate with
Lizzie Moore., a woman employed in
his office. When5 the Kansas woman
was about to become a mother he mar
ried her to protect her. but told her he
could not live with her.
The next day. said Dr. Adams, he
wrote to Miss RIchmeyer and told her
to Join him in Kansas City to become
his wife. She did so, and they came to
Colorado Springs December 14 and
were married by the Rev. C. B. Cross.

on the pretext his mother was there
suffering with rheumatism.
It was two months before Miss Rich
meyer heard of him again, and in a
letter which she received, Adams said
he could not love her as a man should
love his wife, and that he was not fit
for her or any other-decent woman. He
told her they could not live together.
The unhappy girl' started an inquiry
and found that her supposed husband
had a wife and child in Pittsburg, Kan.
She then swore to a complaint charg
ing bigamy. .
At the conclusion of testimony Ad
ams made a tearful plea to the court.
His story was that he had struggled
through poverty for" his education, had
helped his parents pay off debts and
had had a harcT battle for existence.
When Judge Morris scored the pris
oner for yielding to temptation after
fighting his way up from poverty, Ad
ams sobbed like a child.
Miss Richmeyer, the prosecuting wit
ness appeared to be broken-hearted,
as he vainly tried to suppress her emo
tion in answering the questions of the
district- attorney.. At,' the close of her
testimony she broke down completely.
