and are worthy the careful consideration
of every citizen of this CITY;
If the bonds should carry in Wichita. Of
which we have little doubt, the road will
be built. Most likely work Will be begun

SIXTEEN MEN KILLED.
Terrible Result of Dynamite Explosion
at White Pigeon, Mich.

WHITE PIGEON, Mich, Sept. 4.-The
dynamite factory of F. A. Reynolds &
Co., near this place, exploded last even
ing. 1t is estimated that there were
about twenty tons of dynamite in the
building, which was three-story brick.
Scarcely a vestige of it remains.
Sixteen workmen, mostly Swedes and
Nor wegians, were annihilated; not an
atom of them is to be found, and it is
impossible to learn their names, as the
company's books, pay rolls, ETC., are
lost. The property loss is estimated at
$50, 900.
The conclusion in White Pigeon was
awful and citizens were badly fright
ened. Goods in the stores were thrown
from the shelves and houses rocked to
and fro. The spire Of the German
Lutheran church fell with loud crash
and the walls of several buildings are
cracked and damaged

A MURDERER SHOT TO DEATH.

death. He was captured in Clayton

TESTING GAME LAWS.
Belief that the Supreme Court Will De-
clare the Bill Invalid.

Belief that the Supreme Court Will De-
clare the Bill Invalid.
MADISON, Wis.,, Sept. THE general
game law passed by the last legislature
is before the present session Of the su-
preme court, which body will pass upon
its constitutionality. William Delano,
of Manitowoc, was defendant ina suit for
violating the game law, and was fined
500 and costs. He appealed the case to
the supreme court on the ground
that two-thirds of this fine
goes to the informer, which
he claims is in direct violation of sec
ton 2, of article X, of the constitution,
which says that The clear proceeds of
all fines collected in several counties
for any breach of penal laws
shall be set apart as separate
fund to be called the school fund"
He also AYERS that the fine is excessive,
which would make it unconstitutional.
Lawyers are of the opinion that the
first part holds good, which would in
validate the game laws.
