Kearney County Bonds.

Kearney County Bonds.
ToPEKA, October AIN the United States
circuit court argument in demurrer was
heard in the case of Coffin l. Stanton, Of
New York, against the board of commis-
sioner of Kearney county.
In 1888 the temporary board of county
commissioners issued funding bonds in the
sum of $4,000 10 cover township issues pre-
viously made. This was done four months
after the county was organized, while the
Law forbids the issue of any but school bonds
until after county has been organized one
year.
The argument in demurrer to defendants
answer was that the statute does not apply to
funding bonds, and further that the latent
power to issue bonds, which would operate
after the first year Of organization, should
become active IN order to protect innocent
purchasers, who could not guard against
such technicality.
Judge Riner took the question under adj
visement and ordered counsel to prepare
briefs. An opinion will be handed down at
the next sitting of the court.

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.

The Death Of BandmaSter Gilmore
Fair Week and its Special Attrac-
tions-Crowded Theaters.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3, s92.-The death Of
Gilmore was felt like personal be-
reavement by the people of st. Louis.
He was doubtless one of the greatest
musical director has ever tried to take
with him on tour a band of the size
he had at the exposition. There are
1O1 men in it, every one of them mu-
siciaps who command large salaries.
The band will remain with the expo
rected by Sergeant Charles w. Freud
envoll, who has been leading with
Gilmore for sixteen years The organ
ization has been such a financial as
well as musical success that it will
probably not break up, and the chances
are that it will supply the exposition
music next year, as contracted for by
the late Col. Gilmore.
The great week of the fall festivities
draws near. The city is crowded with
visitors, and the scenes on the streets
on the nights of the illumination are
most interesting. Every Thursday here
after till October 20, the principal streets
will be made brilliant with the long
rows of lights, and the beautiful
pictures in electric flame. Saturday
night, Oct. 1.-the Yelled Prophet and his
retinue will arrive by boat, and
escorted by the military of the
city will march to the EXPOSE
ton and parade through the aisles.
The following Tuesday night
the Prophet will appear on
the streets with his famous tableaux
parade. The subject to be illustrated
by a score or more of floats, each one
of which carries generally from five to
a dozen figures in costumes, is yet
mystery. 1t is never made known till
the day of the parade. The st Louis
fair, the biggest thing of the kind in
the West, will open Oct. and last till
the end of that week. The Thursday
of this week is always declared half
holiday in the city and the gate regis
tiers show invaria bly, that more than a
hundred thousand people go out to the
grounds on that day. From now till
the last of October the railroads will
make rates of extraordinary cheapness
into the city.
The seven principal theatres OF the
city have suspended their free lists,
and the pass system will not be re-
sumed till about the end of the month.
Every one of them is crowded nightly
from gallery to dress-circle, and in
those where there is some very popu-
lar play the sign ''standing-room
only" is hung up before the curtain
rises. There is always great scram-
bic among the companies to get booked
in St Louis for the last week in Sept,
and the first one in Oct, and they are
willing to offer the theatres high
premiums for the privilege. None but
the very best of companies can afford
to pay the theatres the rates they de-
mand- for these weeks, and the result
is one much to the advantage of the
stranger who drops into town about
that time

Total Prostitution Of Business

Total Prostitution OF Business.
HAMBURG, October s.-Nine thousand clerk.
have been thrown out of work In this city
owing to the depression resulting from the
cholera epidemic on all lines of business here.
In the shipping districts similar state OF
distress exists.
Nine persons died in Hammerbrock in one
day from typhoid fever, directly due to in
sufficient nourishment, seven of them being
in the families of clerks who had been dis
charged on account of the lull in trade.
Many of the shops are oIen daily, but
trade is almost dead and the physicians fear
that the scarcity of food and clothes among
the thousands of unemployed ~ill result in
series of epidemics throughout the winter.
The poor classes are indignant because the
city authorities demand a fee of IA marks
for each interment of cholera victim in
stead of burying the bodies gratis as had
been the case hitherto.

The Southern Embargo.

WASHINGTON, d. c., October 4.-The en-
barge placed upon American commerce by
the action of some Central American coun-
tries IN closing their ports to ships from the
United States is q matter of deep concern to
the state department. Aside from the actual
loss to our merchants resulting from this
action, the interruption to the mails Is q
source of vexation. An uureasoning dread
of the introduction of cholera has led 70 the
issuance of these troublesome DEGREES by the
governments of the south. Some juStlfica-
ton may be found in the conduct OF our own
officials IN New York, but what in that case
was a rigorous, but still limited quarantine,
has been exaggerated by our Central Ameri-
can neighbors into an absolute termination
of all intercourse with the United States.

The Democratic bolt against Hill in
New York is gaining truly formidable
proportions. The'method by which it is
engineered is as follows: A provisional
State committee have opened rolls to be
signed by all who approve the second
State convention, which is to be held at
Syracuse the 31st of this month. These
rolls have been opened for signature in
all portions of the State for several
weeks. The result must be surprise
to the independent leaders themselves,
and trebly such to Hill. The enroll
ment in New York city amounts to 49,
1913, OF more than half of the LAG, 067
votes which Flower got in the city in
1891. In Erie county, where Flower got
$4,000 votes, the independent enrolment
amounts to nearly $4,000 names. 1t is
thought that at the lowest estimate fully
100000 voters have been enrolled If
these men mean business they will make
it very warm for David B. Fill.

Love for an Hour is Love Forever by
Amelia E. Barr, is a refined, delicate
romance full of poetry and dainty fancy,
but withheld from insipidity by the rough
wit of Squire Anterior, the tragic in
sanity of Martha Leigh and at the close
of the novel, the piquaney and endear-
ing originality of the Squire's second
wife, a pretty American widow. There
are griefs and delays and sad days but
all the wedding bells ring at last and
herald the termination of an attractive
and interesting story and the beginning
of new joys to it's loyal hero and lovely
heroine. (New York: Dodd, Mead &

The destroyer was one of the latest
of Ericsson's inventions. and one which
the great inventor himself expected to
become as much of an innovation in ma
val warfare as was the Monitor in it's
day. But completed in time of peace,
with no extraordinary conditions pre-
vailing to hurry work upon it or attract
public attention to it, the Destroyer has
been regarded only with speculative
interest, even by naval experts. The
principle of the new war ship is simple.
By means of gun trained below the
water line, its muzzle projecting through
the stem Of the vessel, Ericsson ex-
pected to be able to fire projeetile
through the water with sufficient force
to pierce the hull OF All adversary. AS
the largest and most heavily armored
war vessels are vulnerable few feet be-
low the water line, the great inventor
felt confident that he had originated
Destroyer in fact as we'll as name.
But Ericsson died, leaving his work in
complete, and it has only been within
few days that the Destroyer has been
tested At the Brooklyn navy yard the
other day six nets were submerged, the
first hundred feet from the muzzle.
and the others distributed along what
would be a long course for the subma-
rine projectile. This projectile had
buoyancy of five pounds. 1t maintained
for long distance depth of about nine
feet under the surface of the water, as
was shown by the way it pierced the
nets, and the aim of the gun was appar-
entity true. Although the experiments
are unfinished it is thought that they
will result promisingly.

In A Voyage of Discovery. A novel
of American Society by Hamilton Aide,
two young English people, Sir Mordaunt
Ballinger and his handsome sister Grace,
betake themselves by way of the S. S.
Teutonie to our country, and to society
as we have found it. The fair sister has
her affections bespoken, but the brother S
are free to roam. Here is a sufficiently
good basis upon which to build a story
and fill in the chinks with descriptions
of American manners and customs. This
the author proceeds to do, and in the do
ing he completes an entertaining story.
Sometimes he deals too generally with a
special absurdity. His characters are
too numerous and one of them, Mrs. Van
Wrinkle, so vulgar and of such bad form
that she might well have been excluded
from polite society On the other hand
the family of the Young Harvard Pro-
fessor is wonderfully true to life. Both
the heroine episodes in love are har-
moniously sad and leave feeling of OPP
preston. Not u little brightness and
wit touch up the descriptive text. A
Voyage of Discovery will be undertaken
we predict by a large number of summer
travellers as well as by those who stay at
home in vacation time but wish they
were there. New York: Harper and
