The question of cheap light is attract
ing universal attention, and has been for a
long time Gas is good thing, and
ought TO be much cheaper than it is gen.
orally. In many cities il costs from
$3.50 to $500 per 1000 cubic feet. In
other places, free from frauds, steals and
swindles, it is much cheaper. The city
of Wheeling, in West Virginia, own the
gas works there, and supplies gas OF
6fteen and sixteen candle power to pri-
vate consumers at 81 20 a thousand cubic
feet, with 10 per cent discount on bills
paid within ten days. Thisprice enables
the city to keep the works in repair, and
yields net profit. The city hospital in
Cincinnati manufactures its own gas,
and makes an eighteen candle power gas
at cost of less than thirty-eight cents
thousand cubic feet. In Pittsburg two
companies supply gas at 81 n thousand
cubic feet, and make money at it.

Mary Allen West, superintendent of

publican Register, comments on the i'm
portance of educational columns in local
papers. She says such columns are
a proof Of an improved public sentiment
and the harbinger of still greater i'm
provemeh. She does not believe in the
''let alone policy" and thinks indiffer.
ence more dangerous TO our schools than
opposition. While educational papers
reach but few, the local papers go into
all the homes and places of business and
are read by thousands. We clip the fol

The Kansas Academy of Science, of
which Prof. B. F. Nudge was president
ut the time of his death, two months
ago. has undertaken the erection of a
monument to his memory, and COM
mittee has been appointed to take
charge of the matter. Prof Nudge, by
his untiring application TO geological
inquiry for many years. in Kansas, had
attained high rank among scientific in
vestigators. He had rendered great ser
vice to Kansas, and had won the esteem
of all classes of our people. He i'm
proved every opportunity to communi-
cate his rich stores of practical and sci
entific knowledge, not only to students
placed under his charge in our state in
stitutions of learning, but also TO the
people, by public lectures, by private cor
dependence, and by contributions to the
public press.
Giving himself unreservedly to the
great work of education, "he had no
time to make money" although hun
dreds were pecuniarily benefited by his
labOrs, and thousands were enriched by
the more precious wealth of his learning

ment, and the many friends of Prof
Nudge are cordially invited to render al
possible assistance. LOCAL committee

A GOOD LAW.

On Friday the committee on Indian
affairs agreed upon n bill that will estab-
lish the authority of law upon the reser-
vations which hitherto, for the most part,
have been the theater of unbridled law
lessness. The bill provides that the law
of the respective states and territories for
the punishment of crimes Of the graver
class shall have effect in the reservations,
and shall be enforced by the United
States courts. Over the Indian Terrific
~, except within the boundaries of the
Five Nations, in like manner, the law:
of Kansas for the punishment of crime
are extended. The bill is one that Ions
since should have been law. If enforc
ed, it would do away with much of tn
frontier lawlessness.
