KANSAS SALOONS WRECKED RY MRS. NATION'S ARMY. Fhe Hundred Incensed People Smash Plate Glass, Mirrors, Pottles of Liquor and Other ri<L * _ i nings. Topeka, Kas., Fob. 17.?Mrs. Carrie Nation put in a busy Sunday in Topokn to-day, and a3 ? resuk'tho capital city has experienced more genuine excitement than can bo remembered by the oldest inhabitants. Mrs Nation literally crammed the dav with_ thrilling episodes. Slie succeeded in having the contents of a no torious joint smashed, broke into a cold storage plant whore a number of fine bars had been stored away for safety, and demolished them, addressed a, large mass meeting of men and women, and was arrested four times. The last "timo that the law laid its hands upon her was when Mrs. Nation emerged from the church where the mass meeting had been held. To night Mrs. Nation an nounces that she will begin tomorrow whore sho left ofl' today, and will not rest until all the joints in Topoka have been closed. This morning at 0 o'clock, just as the big bell on the Church of the Assumption tower was striking the hour, Mrs. Nation sallied forth from the State house grounds at the head of 500 men and women, all armed with hatchets and and moved on the joints of the city. Nobody but Mrs. Nation kn< \v vwiat plans she had laid. In the crowd wore a large number of students of Swash? burn college, some of the minis t< rs of the city and a nuinbor of professional and business . men. The crowd marched in |^P perfect military order, the men and women following their recognized leader, whom they seemed to trust implicitly The company marched silently out of the State house grounds, down Kansas avenue, to ?he placo on East Seventh street, kept by Ed Murphy, where the work of demolition began. Mrs. Nation, brandish[ II \ ft ?1 ?IA1I' U O 1 /lllAt l.AA.1/,,1 * !"? ^ onslaught, uttering words of deprecation against the joint keepers as she sent her weapon through tho first plate glass window at hand Others fol lowed her lead quickly. Amid the shouts of the crusaders and the commands of the police present, trying to protect the property, glass went.crashing to the ground on all sides. Jlpct the door was smashed in with an axe, and the beer kegs, bottles, mirrors, and everything smashable were attacked Hardi.. n ?ri .. \ r.. \'. 1', 1IVU UllUUU'f illUW .?! 1 > i> il tion had begun the smashing of what was ouco a well furnishod saloon was in complete ruin. Her work over, Mrs. Nation proudly emerged from tho pi,tee, and wap arrested. She went along, with tho ofliecr, followed by h r hand and the crowd that had gathered. At the police station she wan released promptly and hurried tHink to hor work. She entered a livery barn, in whioh some bars had been stored, and smashed thorn. Then, at the head of 25 of her stoutest hearted iN6AS j*r LAK followers, sho went, to the Moserf cohl storugo plant and enteredl upon ii soaroh for liquor that she i thought hud been stored there.' This time Airs Nation was arrested by the county authorities, and | was taken to the jail in a patrol wagon. It was after noon before she i r ? * w ?s lomttHnii i roin jh11 on oonu, and after taking dinner withi Sheriff CooR she went to the firfct; ! Christian church, where she was accysted by an officer with a war-11 ' rant, and taken to the county jail again. She stayed this time for j ' two hours, and finally her bond waa signed by one of the joint, keepers of the city, a negro politician. I i The gathering of the crusaders at the state house grounds before daylight was conducted with thoi i utmost ee?recy. Very few knew about tho intended raid, except |' those going to take part in it. At 4 .'50 o'clock silent forms were hurrying across to the state house,, where sentinels of the army vi ere ' posted. These required each , comer to give an account of him-. . i self. Finally the army was massed in the dark, di?inal'corri- ; dor under the east steps ot the i cnpitol building. Two men came with great nun- I ing picks, and others had axes and sledge hammers. The women, ; ! who composed one fifth of then party, carriod bright, new hatchjets. At daybreak Mrs Nation, jj who had overslept, ar.d Dr Eva j Harding, with whom she staved i that night, came running up. '< "Get in lino there, men und ' # | i women,'1 Mrs Nation called. "We I I i must he about tho Lord's work, i Get your hatchets reuuy und fol- 1 , low me." 11 i And they did, two by two, with | weapons in hand, Mrs Nation, j I with her hatchet raided, leading. ' Behind her were Mrs Rose Crist 11 and Miss Southard, who accom- j panied her on her trip to Chicago,. i and I)r Eva Harding. Nextcame . nix Washburn college hoys bear- i ing an immense battering ram,' i ^ xcii oi Hie bovs also clutching a \ bright new hatchet. Twice at j i notorious places the crowd want-: | ed to stop, but Mrs Nation would j i not tarry. The crow*d reached : the joint door leading toMurphy's i fashionable bar. Four policemen i *tood guard and commanded the | people to stand back. I "Smash, smash, smash," called i out Mrs Nation. "Don't pay any attention to them " i Forward came the battering I ram and the big plate glass win- i ?lo\\* was smashed into a thousand fragments. Dozens of men then ru.-died on the building armed with their axes and soon had the iloors and window frames cut entirely awav. Then with an ex * % < ill Dm t choer the crowd burst into the building. "l'raiso Clod, women, smash the bottles and the windows'4, called i out Mrs. Nation again, and raising her famous hatchet, she sent it through a window glass. Two polieemcn seized Mrs. Nation.! J They started off with her to the i police station as quickly as pos I I sihle. She frantically uracil her!, | co-worker* to keep up the work, i ' First a c iso of beer was smashed. 1 Slot machines, cigar cases, hil-j liard tables, chairs, counters and I | even stoves were smashed to Sliile or Olilo, Clly of Toledo' } I.IK RS Frank i Cheney makes oaih II.at ho is Honor partnnr of the Hem of P T (,'honny ft fa. , iii.> inirtliK sh In the CUy uf TgNo County an 1 Stale nlmrniW anil th.it wild Arm iM , pit tbfl idn oC Oni Huodnd Dollars for inch j iM rery cmoof < atarrh tbsi cnnfiot boo '<i ] I . by t).i> iir- ..
