TIE PRETTY GIRL OF AMERICA.
A Portrait by Henry janis Of National
Type.

She was simply the American
pretty girl whom lie had seen a
thousand times. 1t was numer-
Gus sisterhood, pervaded by a
strong family likeness. This
young lady had charming eyes (of
the color of Gordon's cravats),
which looked everywhere at once
and yet found time to lnger in
come places, where Longuevil's IS
own eyes frequently met them.
She had soft brown hair, with a
silky-golden thread in it, beauti-
fully arranged and crowned by a
smart little hat that savored of
Paris. She had also a slender little
figure, neatly rounded, and deli
cate, narrow hands, prettily
gloved. She moved about great
deal in her place, and twisted her
little flexible body and tossed her
head, fingered her hair and exam
ined the ornaments of her dress,
She had a great deal of conversa-
tion, and she expressed herself
with extreme frankness and decis.
ion. He asked her, to begin with,
if she had been long at Baden, but
the impetus of this question was
all she required. Turning her
charming, conscious, coquettish
little face upon him, she instantly
began to chatter.

weeks. 1 don't know whether you

NOTES FROM COLORADO.

COLORADO SPRINGs, July ~, 'IJ.
EDS. DAILY NEWS: l came here yes
terday to look after the remains of the
late r. X. Manning. 1 found Ed. Man.
ming alone among strangers, and almost
worn out from grief and his terrible
night of excitement and exposure.

tiers, as the undertakes went contrary
to orders repeatedly. However, the
corpse was shipped today in the best
possible manner, but will reach Pueblo

1t is useless TO undertake to give de-
scriptiOn of the accident or the wreck.
Mr.. Manning was on the ''cab.," as /
understand. The engine went through
the bridge and pulled seven cars after it,
all loaded with coal except one which
was loaded with main pipe for water
works. The engineer, fireman and Man
ming were buried beneath all this in the
water and quicksand. The fireman and
engineer were taken out more dead than
alive, and Manning was not found for
eight or ten hours.

INSURANCE COSTS.

Mr.. Welch, superintendent of in
surance, sends us his annual report fol-
1889. 1t is full of interesting informa.
ton. Probably the most important
statement lie makes is that 1.-The Insur
ance premium charged in this state is
at least one-half higher than the average
premium for the fire insurance written
in the United States, and no state in the
union for the past seven years shows a
less average per cent. of losses" 1t is
now in order for insurance companies
TO rise and explain why they tax Kansas
people in this way? 1t also appears
that 40 per cent. of all the premiums
charged go to pay the running expenses
of the busine8-nOt losses, or interes;
on capital invested, but simply for or
binary expenses. This is heavy ratio
of expense TO income, and no wonder
rates are high.

The result of the Buford trial in Ken
lucky was a surprise to all. The Grim.
inal shot judge in cold blood, because
that officer decided law suit against
him. 1t seems he belonged to the nearly
extinct and worthless ''chivalry," and
had the usual southern "Col." prefixed
TO his name. Extra efforts were made to
get up sympathy for him, a "bench-leg''
Kentucky preacher giving him the ben.
eft of sermon. 1t was supposed he
would be cleared and lionized, after the
fashion of the "chivalry" But instead
we have to score one for justice in Ken.
lucky. Even "the intellectually sane and
morally insane" Buford has been found
guilty of murder in the first degree, and
sentenced to Imprisonment for life Such
decision will be healthy for Kentucky
and is not without its influence in other
quarters. When they commence to hang
murderers of all kinds in the south a
better day will dawn, even if it does thin
out the population considerably.

The result was so many and such ia
vorable bids that the contracts were let
at unprecedentedly low rates, much less
than the amount appropriated. We call
attention to the matter to show that the
NEWS ranks as among the very best adj
vertising mediums in the country fact
which accounts for the excessive jeal-
ousy manifested by our unknown cotem-
pOrarys down street.
The howl, by the way, which the Led
ger makes over the amounts paid for adj
vertisIng is a hypOcritical yelp, mas
much as it wilfully Omlts to state that
the rates paid are strictly in accordance
with the official instructions given. The
idea of the Emporia Ledger bowling be-
cause it is not ranked among such ad-
vertising mediums as the Chicago Inter
Ocean, Emporia NEWS, &c, is really
ridiculous. No doubt the same adver-
tisement that is worth $102.40 in the
NEWS would be dear enough at So in
the Ledger, but that is no reason why
our contemporary should get up on its
hind legs and yOwl, and yowl, in so lu-
gubrious manner.
Instead of attempting to throw dis
credit on the commissioners, had not the
editor of the Ledger better read the law
and turn his wrath toward the legisla-
ture. The state-house commissioners
acted in the matter under the following
section of the law:
"Sec. 8. That Immediately after the APP
pointment and qualification" etc, ''they
shall advertise for period of not less
than twenty nor more than forty days,
in at least three of the most prominent
newspapers in the state, and in one news
paper in the city of Chicago. and in one
newspaper in the city of st. Louis, for
proposals for the immediate construc-
ton of the west wing of the state house

The hated and abused "dollar of
the dads" is getting in its work. The
Inter Ocean remarks that thus far during
the month the New York custom house
has received in payments $4,000 in gold,
$627, 900 in silver certificates, and s., 5O4 :
900 in legal tenders. 1t would seem as
if the rag money" and fraudulent
eighty -four-cent dollar" pleasantly so
called by the gold advocates, are doing
their work exceedingly well, under the
very noses of their calumniators. We
hear less about "the fraudulent dollar
and rag money" than we did. Both
the silver dollar and the greenback have

THE PRESBYTERIAN COLLEGE

1hE fhEOb \ IEhIAN COLIIEG L.
A few days ago we published an arti-
Gle calling public attention to the propo-
sition to locate here the college which
the Presbyterians of Kansas have de-
termined to establish and endOw. We
have heard nothing of the matter since.
We have not herd of any steps being
taken by the friends of the proposition.
1t is one of great importance TO our peo-
pie, and we hope it will receive due con-
sideration. Other points are seeking
the location of this institution, and il
behooves Emporia to bestir herself if she
desires the institution, of which there is
no doubt. The matter has already at
tracted the attention of eastern gentle
men interested here, and we have no
doubt some of them are willing to
extend helping hand. We believe the
people of Emporia and vicinity will be
ready to act in the matter whenever those
having it in charge call upon them. The
establishment of this college here would
certainly be of great benefit to us mate
rally, to say nothing of the value il
would be from moral standpoint
While it would be small, perhaps, in Its
infancy, the support the Presbyterians
of Kansas could and would give it.
would put it upon basis to be of great
benefit in a few years. Buildings of the
value of $4,000 or $4,000 would be al
once erected, and an endowment sufh
cient to run the college raised. There
would soon be a perceptible influx of a
class of people who would not only be
the most desirable citizens, but who
would add materially to our wealth
Let us give this matter the attention its
importance deserves.
