lrnior Weather Chief Who ' Dis
appeared Ten Vears Ago,
New' York; JCov. lS: Mark "W. Har
rington, at one time, chief of the
United States weather bureau, and a
well known scientific . man who dis
appeared from his home in Mount
Vernon. T. Y., nearly ten years ago
and for whom his wife and son had
been seeking ever since, it was re
ported today, is an inmate in the New
Jersey asylum for the insane at Mor
ris Plains. The man in the asylum
believed to be Prof. Harrington, was
Tound wandering about the streets of
Trenton over a year ago, and was un
able to give his name or any details
about himself, and as he carried no
papers that would reveal his identity,
he was sent to Morris Plains. Had it
not been for the chance reading of
an article in a western paper by his
son, Redmond Harrington, describing
a patient in the asylum, the man's
identify might never have been
learned. The son's suspicions were
aroused, and he communicated with
his mother who now lives in this city.
She visited Morris Plains and there it
was said identified the inmate known
as "John Doe No. 8" as her husband.
He did not recognize her.
Mrs. Harrington says that since
the time her husband had left their
home some ten years ago, she had
heard from him twice, shortly after
he left, one letter coming from
Ealeign, N. C, and another post
marked Washington. D. C. He did
not say in either letter why he left
home or when he expected to return.
A month later, a sister of Mrs.
Harrington's living in Baltimore said
she had seen the man on the street,
but did not speak to him as he did not
- seem to recognize her.
. Prof. Harrington was a graduate of
the University of Michigan, where he
afterward held the chair - of
astronomy. President Harrison ap
pointed him chief of the weather
bureau in 1891. from which office he
was removed in 1895 by President

WHO HIT MR. STRACK?
That Is What- Judge Simon Is Trying
to Find Out.
V .
Two of the many witnesses In the
Russian assault case, in which John
Deagan is defendant, gave their testi
mony in the court of Topeka Thursday
afternoon. Although the trial will not
be held until Thursday of next week,
these witnesses wished to leave the
city, and their evidence if it might
be called such was taken. Hollmann
and Gerling were the witnesses, and
County Clerk S. G. Zimmerman made
change for the testimony. Interpreta
tion was no easy matter, as the mem
bers of the Russian colony talk a mix
ture of German and Slav. After they
had been questioned and cross ques
tioned for some time, nothing had"
been gleaned in the way of evidence
except that every male inhabitant of
"Little Russia" seemed to have been
gloriously drunk on the night of Octo
ber 25. The witnesses testified intel
ligently as to the number of quarts of
whisky consumed by themselves. Dea
gan, the defendant, and Strack. the
man who was assaulted. About seven
quarts of tamarack were accounted
for, but the blow of an axe or some
other weapon which put Strack out of
commission, was not seen by the wit
nesses. They spent most of the time
consumed on the witness stand in
tracing their own movements, from
house to house, and carefully enumer
ating the quarts of whisky they pun
ished at each stop. At the home of
Ignatz Bright they encountered Bright
and Strack, who, after taking a few
drinks with them, kicked them out of
the house. ome time later, they ob
served old man Strack with a bloody
head, "laying" for Deagan. and ex
pressing a desire to kill him.
The preliminary hearing of Deagan
was originally set for Thursday of tl
week, but was continued a week by
the court, because many of the wit
nesses failed to heed the subpoenas
issued, and were not on hand.
JUSTICK GRAVES A HUMORIST.
Announces New Rule to Govern Jail
Habitations of Jointists.
No one has ever suspected that
Justice C. B. . Graves, the most majes
tic and solemn of all the supreme
court judges, is really a humorist.
The truth became known, however,
when the last "batch" of opinions
came down a week ago.
In this lot of opinions was one in
the case of Murphy vB the cltv of
Wichita. Murphy was accused of
running a joint in Wichita. He was
convicted and sentenced to jail for 30
days. He appealed on the ground that
the city ordinance of Wichita on the
subject of liquor selling was void be
cause it was not in harmony with
state law; that state law required all
city ordinances to be uniform; that
city Jails throughout the state are not
uniformly comfortable anri therefore
that city ordinances are not uniform. I
Atier announcing that the supreme
court does not concur with Mr. Mur
phy's contention. Justice Graves, in
his opinion goes on to say:
"If a Joint keeper in any city thinks
the jail there worse than in other
cities, the law will permit him to
move his business to wherever he
can find a jail that is satisfactory.
"The judgment of the district court
is affirmed."
T. B. GEROW IS DEAD.
State
Employment Agent Passes
Away in Atchison.
Theodore B. Gerow, state free em
ployment agent, died Thursday after
noon at his home in Atchison, after
a sickness of several weeks.
Mr. Gerow has been free employ
ment agent for eight years. He was
appointed by Governor Stanley, and
held the office throughout Governor
Bailey's and Governor Hoch's admin
istration. , He was an old soldier,
and at one time was prominent as a
campaign orator. As state froe em
ployment agent he did a lot of work
for the state, and sent thousands of
men needing work out to the harvest
fields during the times when there
was great demand for men.
During harvest time, especially, Mr.
Gerow was one of the busiest men
in the State house. He. always pre
pared a big map of the state and as
fast as telegrams would come in for
men in different cities and localities
he would mark that number on the
map, also in a book. Then he would
look up his time tables and decide
the shortest route between : the place
where he had men waiting and the
place where they were, wanted. With
a little telgraphing he would have the
men on the road and that community
would be supplied. He worked this
system in each county where men
were needed and with a few excep
tions there was never anything but
praise for his work.
Mr. Gerow. is survived by a wife
and four children. He was born in
New York city in 1846. During the
civil war he was a member of the
Fifth New York volunteer infantry
and had a commendable war record.
In 1878 he came west and settled on
a ranch near Forf Scott, Kan. . The
following year he came to Atchison,
which city has been his home since.
Previous to 1900 he was city clerk of
Atchison for a period of ten years. In
1900 he became state employment
agent.

decided -unon . for church extension in
conjunction with that of home mis
sions a delegate declared : "The ratio.!
or lour to one for home- missions over
church extensions is not enough. You
are taking too much for the work of
piling up brick and stone while the
work for flesh and blood suffers Just
that much in proportion."
California asked for one-fifth of the
total appropriation for church exten
sions. The motion was laid on the ta
ble, but may be taken up again later
in the session.
Dr. Robert Forbes, Who Will Preach
at the First M. E. Church Here
Sunday Morning.
Looking at the faces of the 70 dele
gates turned toward the presiding offi
cer, one is struck by the lines of char
acter so prominent and universal in all
of them. The bishops are all portly
men,- with high noses and strong chins.
but their eyes are gentle and humor
lurks within their depths. They are
Judges of human nature, are these
bishops, and have learned much in
their long struggle as leaders in the
fight of the church against the world,
the flesh and the devil. The laymen
are of a type of the solid and con
servative business man chosen for his
shrewdness and common sense to rep
resent the laity in the handling of mil
lions of dollars of church funds. The
preachers present are most of them
tall, thin faced men, stooping shoulders
and many of them wear long, white
beards. Methodism, like every other
church ism,- has broadened with their
years, but -the character types of her
leaders have changed but little in the
last 50 years as shown by the faces of
this gathering or tne Drains ana Drawn
of the grand old church. The church
will hold its place in the front rank as
lone as men of this type are in con
trol. Their conservatism and proud
love of creed are tempered with broad
aggressive policies and they recognize
the fact that the needs or toaay are
different from the conditions of a half
century ago.
Bishop Robert Mclntyre, of St. Paul,
who lectures Saturday night, is recog
nized as one of the greatest word
painters in the pulpit or on the plat
form of this country today.
Bishoo Frank Bristol, of Buenos
Ayres, is one of the most popular of
all the leaders in the Methodist church.
He is the James G. Blaine of the na
tional conference.
-.-Bishop Cranston of,WashInton, D. C,
i one 'of the most influential of the
debaters on church policies. ,
Next Sunday the people of a score
of cities in Kansas will have the op
portunity to hear the lights of Meth
odism. All of the great preachers in
attendance at this conference have been
apportioned out among the different
pulpits of the state.
Will Speak In Pulpits.
Bishop Robert Mclntyre will lecture
