nescrintion arinna.

a correspondent at Mondovi sends to
the Spokane Spokesman a description
of Ia grippe. He appears to under
stand the dread disease, and, although
he gives no remedy, his words are not
without cheer:
La grippe, a Russian disease with a
French name, was imported to this
country before the Mckinley tariff bill
was passed.
1t seems to take quite well, some
people even going so far as to die with
it; but while a great many insist on
having it, only a few carry it to ex-
tremes.
First you feel bad, and then You
feel worse. AS the man that got more
whisky than he could navigate with
told the hog that had upset his bottle,
the contents of which he supposed the
hog had swallowed.
Feel bad, don't you? Head aches,
and you viii think you are going to die,
but you won't.
Your head viii ache, your back viii
ache. and your feet will ache, and you
viii have aches between aches. If you
are tall person and are sick the full
length you will be pretty sick.
Sometimes this disease hurts the
lungs, sometimes the head, sometimes
the back, and, worst of all, sometimes
it hurts the disposition.
You can expect to have it once, and
may have it twice, but you are a
blamed fool if you have it three times.

ton. Many fields will yield thirty five

Winona Clipper: If some enterprising
threshing machine outfit would come
into the vicinity of Winona this fall
prepared to furnish all the hands need

have not the time to spare to exchange
work with their neighbors, as the ma
jority of them will commence preparing
the ground for fall seeding as soon as
harvest is over.
Independence Star and Kansan:
Speaking of cherries, did anybody ever
before see so many and such nice ones
as the crop in Montgomery county this
year? Every tree, from the largest to
the smallest one that hardly looks old
enough to bear. is loaded down with
rich, luscious cherries, perfectly free
from worms or blight of any kind.
Bushels will no doubt go to waste, as
they are drug in the market at any
price, and the prohibition law interferes
with their manufacture into the refresh
ing and healthy wine.

KANSAS RAILROADS.

The Union Pacific Railroad company
have restored the old jobbing rates to
Topeka merchants on every line Of mer-
chandise except groceries.
&c. Gay, general freight agent OF
the Santa Fe, has issued a circular in
which the weight per car for hay ship
ments is made 10000. 1t was formerly
10000.
Wellington Monitor: The Missouri
Pacific came down with S6,054.27 in
payment for the last half of the taxes
on it's lines in this county, a check for
that amount being received at the coun-
ty treasurer's Office. The railroad taxes
will amount to about $4,000 this year,
circular has been issued by the
Santa Fe railroad company announcing
to its employees that in the future three
garnishments against an employe with
in the period of twelve months would
result in his discharge unless it could
be shown that they were run for the
purpose Of persecution.
The state board OF railroad commits
slonsrs have rendered a decision order
ing the Santa Fe to place an agent at
d bLdLlOu OA bnO
branch in Coffey county. The railroad
has answered the decision by placing
an agent on duty in charge of the two
stations of Hall and Sharpe. which it is
thought will be satisfactory to citizens
and shippers at those two points.
Chairman James Smith, of the Trans
Missouri Passenger association, has is
sued an excursion circular dated June

Must Build aDepot.

Tho state board of railroad commits
sioners have made decision which will
interest all localities which snapped
bonds to railroad constructors for
promises.
In 1886 the Geuda Springs, Caldwell
az Western Railroad company asked for
bonds to build their road through Falls
township, Sumner county. Falls town
ship voted the road SIS, 1000, the propo-
sitiOn containing a clause providing for
a station and depot facilities to be To-
catec in the central part of that town
ship.
The county commissioners certified
that the contract had been filed and
paid over the bonds, although a station
had never been provided.
The road is now a branch of the st.
Louis & San Francisco railway, and d.
W. Ball, trustee of Falls township, has
brought action before the railroad COM
missiOners to compel the Frisco road to
keep the agreement upon which the
bonds were voted. The commissioners
visited Falls township and investigated
the case. In their decision they say
they are satisfied that the contract to
build depot and put in station facili-
ties was understood by all parties to
mean such as would accommodate that
community.
1t is clear that without such an IN
Outstanding the bonds would never have
been voted 1t is equally clear that the
railway company did not intend to act
in good faith, but as soon as it becomes
possessed of the $4,000 bonds to sell
to the highest bidder the benefits al
ready paid for by this township. The
station house or depot was never built;
no station facilities put in as claimed
by the company and eertifio& to by the
county commissioners.
A building was begun at the time the
bonds were delivered. bat it was never
completed; it stands there with its
frame work, a mute witness of decep-
ton and fraud on an over confiding
people. The board ordered the railway
company to build and open by August

In one of his essays the renowned
humorist, Leigh Hunt, of England,
wittily maintains the hypothesis that
the literature of every century har-
monies with the implements made use
of in writing. We find the same idea
announced. but not elaborated, in DR..
Martin Luther's Tichreden.
Inquiries about earlier and more re-
cent writing materials develop that
steel pens, far from being, as some as
sert, an English or a German inven-
ton, are rather of Berber origin, and
were about the year 1880 imported by
the Dutch consuls at Tunis and Tripoh
AS early as 1915 the Jewish popula-
ton of Morocco, Tangier, Algiers,
Bona, Tunis,. TripOi, Bengaza, Alex
ander and Smyrna, and the Jews of the
further-in parts of northern Africa to
boot. used steel pens always, while the
Turkish. Moorish and Arab inhabitants
aYailed themselves of wooden ones.
In 1927 q friend of the writer was at
liberty to rummage the archives of the
Dutch consulate general at Tripoh-
these exist since 1702-and be found
there g little box, which certainly had
not been opened for fifty years, con-
tanning some steel, or another kind of
metallic, pens of quite different form
from those of modern times. Whether
these implements were of Arab or
Moorish invention and fabric, he was
unable TO decide, as was every one who
attentively inspected them

one of the teachers entered the school

There was a gentle connection In the

advent of a masculine visitor was
something unusual.

Topeka Free Library.

The librarian of the Topeka city Ii
brary has made report for four months
of 1891.
Up to the first of May 372 new book
borrowers cards have been issued by
the library, showing a healthy growth
in the number of readers.
OF the $500 borrowers now on the
register, probably about 1000 regular
ly patronize the library. The circula-
tion for the first five months of the year
was 2O,892, showing an increase of near
ly 1000 over any similar period in the
history of the library. There is not
much improvement visible in the pro-
portion of fiction to general reading.
The reference department seems to be
increasing in daily use.

Investigation of the state House.
The senate committee appointed to
investigate the contracts for and con-
struction of the state house have made
a lengthy report, which closes as fol-
lows:
In conclusion the committee finds:
''That the board of state house commits
sioners having in charge the erection of
the main building of the state house,
have given proper attention to their
duties, have acted with wisdom and dis
erection, and have conducted the bust
ness with absolute fairness and impair
tiality, guarding the interests of the
state, not only in the making of con-
tracts, but in what is fully as important,
keeping a watchful eye that all contracts
are faithfully executed. AS a committee
we find that the material used in the
construction is of the best quality, and
that the work on the main building is
far superior to that on either of the.
wings, and that if similar care and dis
elimination are exercised until the build
ing is finished, it will present to the
people of Kansas a capitol worthy the
state, the erection of which edifice will
have been made with great care by those
having its construction in charge.
The committee have no recommends
lions to make. Respectfully submitted,

The proceedings of the senate sitting
as a court of impeachment for the trial
of Judge Theodoeius Botkin will make
two volumes aggregating about LAO
pages. The first volume has been de-
livered to the secretary OF state. Two
thousand copies were printed and
bound. and the demand for copies prom
ises to largely exceed the supply. The
demands come from all parts of the
state, but most are from Judge Botkin's
district. The books are bound in full
muslin, and the unprecedented time of
two days was made at the state printing
Office blndery in binding them. This
is another break in the record of fast
work.
Among the rapid machines in the
state printing office is book-sewer on
which. in one day, Mrs. E. ]. Holler
and Miss Barbara Kiark accomplished
the sewing of 27,U25 signatures OF SIX
teen pages each. This record was never
equalled, and reflects high credit on the
two ladies. The second volume will be
ready for delivery about the 25th inst.
State Printer Baker has delivered to
Commissioners Betton the $500 copies
of the Sixth Annual Report of the Blu
reau of Labor Statistics. The book is
a volume of 234 pages and contains a
great deal of valuable information.
The forty-fourth volume of Kansas
supreme court reports is now being
bound, and some copies of it will be
ready for delivery to State Librarian
Dennis during the coming week.
Besides getting out the several books
which have been delivered during the
past week, the state printing Office has
