There IS hank at Herington, Kan,
called the First National Bank of Her
ington. If excessive charges for doing
business is a criterion for making
money and declaring big dividends,
this bank must be among the tip-top
ones of the state. The Kansas News
paper Union, a short time ago. sent a
collection to it of less than 500. With
this collection the party on whom it
was drawn was to sign a note and chat
tel mortgage. The bill of ladlng for
certain goods was sent to the bank with
draft attached, to be delivered to
the party ON payment of erchdnge
and collection charges" To an aver
age business man this would indicate
that the bank was to collect all of its
charges from the party on whom the
draft was drawn. When the money was
sent back there was charge of S5 for
services for making this collection. 1t
may be that the banking laws allow
such q charge, but we doubt it. Even
should the law justify banks in making
such outrageous charges, the ordinary
business man will not stand it. It looks
too much like asking for the earth"
and that it be fenced ms The First
National bank at Herington may be
solvent, but business sagacity would
suggest to its officers that if they wish
to continue in business that they adopt
more liberal plan of transactlng busi-
ness with customers.-Kansas Newspa-
FER Union, Tope ia, Kansas.

KANSAS RAILROADS.

A circular issued over the slgnat ur
of Second Vice President and General
Manager A. A. Robinson, and approved
by President Marvel, announces that
beginning July l, the jurisdiction OF
the officers of the Atchison, Topeka, &
Santa Fe railroad company is extended
to cover the operations OF the Wichita
& Western railroad.
The board of railroad commissioners
announced their opinion in the matter
of the petition of the mayor and coun-
Gil of Oskaloosa for the restoration of
the passenger train service on the
Leavenworth, Topeka, and Southwest
ern. The board recognizes the fact that
the traffic on the line is so light that 1t
will not pay operating expenses, yet
the people along the line subscribed
literally towards its construction under
promise that they should have good
service, and the board holds that the
promise should be kept. tits therefore
ordered that the passenger train service
petitioned for be put on within thirtv
days.

A Narrow Escape.

Somebody has been trying to prove
that war is not so dangerous, on the
whole, as some other agents of destruc-
ton; however that may be, its perils
are not confined to those in action. as
the following anecdote demonstrates !:
There were some narrow escapes among
those who were off duty in camp. One
day a solid shot, with unmannerly
rudeness, came bounding into camp,
passing through group of soldiers
who had just collected for their warm
rations. At the same instant it pros
trated the cook, demolished the mess
kettle, and irreverently baptized the
best flag with bean porridge. The
cook proved to be only temporarily
killed by the gravel which the shot
had thrown against him, and was soon
able to resume his work. About the
same time a sick soldier was lying in
his tent, with his knapsack for pillow.
He was supposed to be quite out Of
harms way, but solid shot, styled by
the boys pickle" from its resem-
blance in size and shape to cucum-
Der, struck the knapsack and carried it
clean away. The only Inconvenience
to the invalid was the loss of the KNAPP
sack and the sudden letting down Of
his head. As the pillow was scarcely
thicker than the missile, this might be
called literally hair-breadth escape

We have long been accustomed to
associate any new development of cleo
trio traction with America, but scheme
is on foot in st. Petersburg which, if
carried out, will certainly leave Amer
lea far in the rear. It is proposed to
have railway entirely worked by
electricity, connecting st. Petersburg
with Archangel and spanning wide
stretch of country between the Baltic
and the White Sea. The project is said
to be backed by Archangel interests,
and the name of Siemens & Co. is con-
nected with the enterprise. The plan
is to furnish the current.from q series
of generating stations distributed
along the line. The distance is some
thing over 500 miles, and the estimated
cost over $4,000 per mile. including
rolling stock. The scheme is certainly
a daring one, and while it may never
reach accomplishment, its further pro-
gress will be awaited with interest by
the advocates of electric traction in
England.

The canine sentinels now being
trained in Northern France learn their
duties quickly. Two soldiers start off
leading a dog by his collar, and when a
mile from the starting point one of the
men turns back. In short time the
dog is let loose and he Immediately
tracks the other soldier back to the
post. rarely failing. Dogs will scent an
enemy at distance of 100 yards, growl-
ing aud shifting to attract attention.

In gratitude for their deliverance

Seamen's Hospital, Liverpool, for its
general purposes. and to endow with
the balance bed in the same institu-

THIS is a tickle world. When Vic tor
Hugo died thousands upon thousands
of crowns were thrown upon his burial
place. A subscription for a monument
was started, which reached $4,000,
and there it stopped. Victor Hugo's
works are no longer in demand, and
the monument, which it was supposed
will cost $4,000, waits the turn of
popular alteration for the great poet to
reach completion.

larger crop than that OF last year.
A Riley item. Fine rains have fallen
during the past ten days, and farmers
claim the oat crop to be better than in
1889. Wheat harvest is progressing
nicely. Corn, though somewhat late,
looks fine. and farmers have it in splen-
did condition.

the east and south parts of the county
some pieces will yield thirty bushels per
acre, while all will give far yield.
In the west part Of the county the

hood. He tells US that Hezekiah Brown
has seventy acres Of splendid wheat, and
that a portion OF the field will yield
at least fifty bushels to the acre. This
wheat OF Mr.. Browns is new variety,
but Mr.. Teeney could not remembe,
what it is called.
jamestown Kansan: Crops in this
neighborhood promise splendidly. Corn
has been higher at this time in previ-
GUS years, but never had finer color
or jumped faster. Oats will be very
short straw, but filed out good with
plump grain. Wheat is OF excellent
quality. Rye is good crop. New pota-
toes are being used by the farmers.
Independence Star and Kansan
Francis Black showed us specimen o:
the wheat rsised on his West Cherry
farm this year. The grains were solid
and plump. and looked as fine as any
wheat We ever remember to have seen.
He says he has twenty five acres OF this
wheat on upland which will yield from
thirty to thirty-ive bushels per acre.
Udall Record: The grand rain did
no damage to the wheat harvesting and
was a bonanza for the corn. Corn is
now looking splendidly and is growing
very fast. The oat crop is going to be
better than was thought possible a
short time ago. Old Cowley county is
coming to the front in good shape,
and you can safely sing it to that
meter.
Osborne Farmer: John w. Jackson,
the popular miller of Downs, after trav-
cling over four counties, says that there
will be more and better wheat raised
this year than last in most of the To-
calities visited. His word can be de-
pecded upon. He is certainly we'll

THE power of the snake to charm was
demonstrated near Litchfeld, Conn.,,
the other day. Miss Perkins and her
brother went out to gather arbutus and
became separated. Miss Perkins says
she was bending over to pick flowers
and as she tried to rise she saw an ad-
der gazing at her. She tried to run
away, but could not, and she was not
even able to turn her head. As her
brother came up and shot the snake,
she was growing dizzy. 1t was the fat
head adder, three feet in length.

THERE is no doubt that fish, particu-
larly many of these that inhabit fresh
water, feel the cold, and this accounts
for their moving in winter to deep
water. when they have the opportunity
of doing so. Some fish are much more
affected than others by cold. Swanson
mentions an instance of 3 number Of
fine perch having been found dead IN .

An interesting discovery has been
made in Manchester. While looking
over some old manuscript music in the
shop of Mr.. Cornish, the bookseller,
DR.. Henry Watson came upon several
manuscript copies of works by Mozart,
which further examination convinced
him to be, for the most part, In the COM
