tees OF the million-dollar trust created for Mrs.

to the estate $4,000. Sho has since contin-
ued in the functions Of executrix. The pur-
pose Of tho Injunction was to prevent her be-
coming further indebted to the estate. The
executors have been in litigation almost from
the death OF Mr.. Stevens in 1872.
Mr.. Burrill said that Mrs. Stevens had been
unfaithful to her trust. that she was an en-
bezzler and defaulter as to the estates

Some prominent business man" of
Kansas City has been telling q reporter
that trade in that city from Kansas is
falling off, and he attributes it to the
fact that the Kansas City papers are in
the habit of poking fun at the towns and
people Of Kansas. To this the Leaven-
worth Times answers: Nonsense! We
never mind that at all. Kansas City
sent to Kansas for about all her newspa-
per talent and this fun making is only
an effort of the boys to make believe the
hayseeds are all combed out of their
hair" The Kansas trade of the Mis-
souri, town is falling off, nevertheless.
and the reason is, mainly, that the
people of Kansas feel that they have
paid tribute to the outside misnamed
plutopality long enough and have deter
mined to patronize home towns, where
the profits arising from the business will
inure to the benefit of the STATE
