The Book Law satisfactory.

II seems to be pretty generally understood
that the change of text books is to take place
gradually and the Indiana school book company
have intimated that n gradual change will be
satisfactory to them. Under this arrangement
II will not be necessary to buy new books for
children until they are promoted 10 higher
classes grades, at which time most of them
need new books il there were no change made
in them at all. AS the new books cost only
about half as much as the old ones, il is clear
that parents will not need TO spend more money
for books this year than they would have spent
had the state not adopted the new series After
this year there will be great saving. In this
country the law is giving much satisfaction.

Little of City Ways.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 2.-Last night the
wife of William b Hanna was separated from
him, and, it is believed, was kidnapped through
the operation OF confidence men. Hanna knows
little about city ways, and admits he is very
green. On getting of cable car rather we'll
dressed man said to him: ''You have stepped
on my toes, sir, and l intend to have you ar
rested" Hanna started off to avoid arrest,
and, noticing that the stranger was following,
told his wife TO meet him at a restaurant where
they had eaten supper, opposite the police sta
tion. Before joining his wife he was overtaken
by the stranger, whom he gave a dollar TO avoid
arrest. He has not seen his wife since, and
PinkertOn men now at work on the case think
that an accomplice of the man who leeced
Hanna has captured his wife in the guise of an
officer and that the whole affair is a conspiracy
for big game. A reward of $500 has been Of
fered by friends of Hanna for information
as to the whereabouts of the wife.
