Jurisdiction Affirmed

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 30.-Judge
Brewer yesterday gave in his decision
on the question as to whether the Texas
United States Court had jurisdiction
over No-Man's-Land. He decides that
the court in Texas has full jurisdiction
in that land and that it has power to
try all murder cases from that section.
The arrest of the Stevens County
murderers was not resisted, the fight
between them and the law being tech
nical case, Involving the jurisdiction of
any court to try them. They will make
this same fight over i'm Paris, Tex,
which will probably sustain Judge
Brewers decision.

Granted q Pardon.

On recommendation of the State
Board of Pardons, Governor Humphrey
granted pardon to William Hopper, of
Wabaunsee County, sentenced June Is,
1888, to three years imprisonment for
assault to kill. The assault was pro-
voked by a quarrel between neighboring
families, and as the offense was not a
serious one the sentence was deemed ex-
cessive. Hopper was an Industrious
young married man of good reputation,
this being the first crime with which his
name has been associated.

Corn for Fuel.

The farmers of the neighborhood OF
Hiawatha are burning corn for fuel,
finding it cheaper than coal. Corn is
sold on the farm at 20 cents per bushel,
while the average price of coal delivered
at the farm ranges from 81 to % cents
per bushel. The Farmers Alliance
brought the attention ef Me farmers to
the relative prices Of tie two Oess...c>1i-
ties, and advised that half the corn crop
be used for fuel, thus advancing the
price of the other half, and saving
money in their fuel bills. The farmers
have begun to act on this advice.
