KANSAS RAILROADS.

The NJ. K. & T. is making a new time
schedule, which is pleasing to Fort
Scott.
The Grand Island road is erecting a
new depot, ten etall round house, and
making other improvements in Han
over.
Arkansas City Traveller: The Santa
Fe is literally blockaded with freight at
this point. On the side tracks in the
yards are now $50 loaded cars.
Emporia Republican: Resident En-
gineer Kinnear, of Newton, is at the
Santa Fe stock yards surveying tho
ground for number of Improvements.
The business has increased to such an
extent that it is necessary to have more
room, such as chutes, pens, etc. The
surveying will be completed soon, and
the work of improving will begin imme-
diately.
Being asked what truth there is in
the rumor that Kansas railroad compa-
MES have declined to furnish passes this
year for editors of alliance papers, w.
II. Simpson, of the Santa Fe advertising
department, says: "If you think it is
true, ask the next populist editor you
meet if he carries an A.. 7. & S. F.
newspaper annual. Ten to one he will
say yes, and speak the truth. too. The
passenger department knows no politics
in distributing it's advertising. 1t puts
its contracts where they pay best In
the annual housekeeping that takes
place each January, few undesirable
journals were cut of. That always
happens, and is nothing now. Because
the usual drop of railroad dew failed to
drop upon some particular newspaper
mans lips. he forthwith concludes there
is universal drouth, and yells for moro
rain"
Atchison Champion: The action of
the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific rail
road company, through their general
passenger agent at Chicago, John Sc
bastian, to encourage immigration to
north and northwest Kansas is a matter
of great importance to the towns and
counties through which this great Kan
sas road runs. The Rock Island is to
northwest Kansas what the Santa Fe is
to the southwest, a valuable Kansas en-
terprise. Agents will he appointed to
visit eastern cities and states, reading
matter will be furnished, tickets will be
issued, and thus the good work Of set
ting up the best portion of Kansas will
be commenced in earnest. That section
of our state was fortunate in securing
this great thoroughfare. The counties
of Republic, Jewell, Smith, Phillips,
Norton, Decatur. Sheridan, Thomas and
Sherman are traversed by the Rock Is
land road, and in their limits are found
as good lands as the sun ever shone
upon 1t is a move that will result IN
great good.

YUNa WUNG, formerly Commits
sioner Of Education for the Chinese
Government, takes upon himself to
threaten that all protection will be
withdrawn from the $500 American
merchants and the several hundred
missionaries now in China if this gov
eminent does not repeal the Chinese
exclusion act. We wonder whether
it never occurred to him to speculate
upon what might happen to the hosts
of Chinese in this country in such an
eventuality.

SPEAKING of Nelson f. Evans, the
Spring Garden Bank wrecker who
was found guilty of misapplying the
funds of the bank and aiding others
in misapplying them, the Philadel-
phia Press aptly says: There are
some men so constituted mentally
and morally that it is impossible for
them to see the essential difference
between that which they own and
that which they simply control.
Such men when they get into trus-
teeships of any sort need to have an
unbroken run of good luck to keep
out of the penitentiary."

APRoPos Of the crinoline night
mare suggested by the statements Of
the tyrants of fashion, Worth and
Redfern, it is we'll to recognize the
fact that the period in which they
were last worn was the most in
artistic in matter Of dress in the his
tory of human folly. A few weeks
ago, when Benneau and Gallet had
completed their opera founded on
Zola's "L'Attaque au Moulin" they
found that the society costumes Of
1871 were so hideous that they could
not be put upon the stage. Rather
than offend the eye by such an mar
tistic setting they put the whole plot
back to the war of 1915!

In lieu of the official preventive
measures that we lack, no one should
remain ignorant of the fact that diph-
liberia is a disease infectious in the
highest degree, and danger may lurk
in everything about the patient. The
spread Of the disease is doubtless due
to the lack of thorough Quarantining,
which, however we'll enforced by the
local authorities, will always be re-
sisted by the families of the afflicted,
no matter what happens. One of the
late authorities on the subject de-
clares, for instance, that not only
should there be complete isolation of
the patient while the membrane is
present, but children should be kept
from school at least four weeks after
the disease has disappeared. Where
the disease prevails, the mouth, noses
and Threats of healthy children should
be washed with an aromatic antisep-
tic every three or four hours Milk
is an excellent medium for the growth
of the bacillus and easily becomes
tainted, and it goes without saying
that everything in the sick room
should be treated with suspicion. The
bacilli resist drying and retain their
virulence in damp corners and cloth
ing for months Careful sanitarians
have Scraped the walls of rooms in
which diphtheritic patients had been,
and destroyed every possible source
Of infection. In ordinary life some
Of the most simple preventive meas
ures are never applied, while many

The board of managers of the Kansas
exhibit at the worlds fair have made q
financial staten mt showing receipts
and expenditures.
The statement is q model in that it
gives full information in little space; it
is q remarkable document in this re-
spect. A complete history Of the work
done from its inception by action of the
state board Of agriculture to January
10, 1898, is SO tersely made as to occupy
few pamphlet pages; yet no essential
fact or feature seems to have been
sighted, but each finds it's place in that
consecutive order and detail which
would best give the reader correct and
permanent impressions.
The boards finances seem to have
been prudently handled, as with only
S1S,634.73 received from local and
county subscriptions and Columbian
societies, the great work that has been
done leaves the board with only $780,

ST. LOUIS. Mo. Jan. 2s-There are more
conventions held in St Louis in a year
than there are held in any other city in
the country. This is the result of the
central position of the city; its excel
lent railway facilities, and the reputa-
ton it has made at times of national
political conventions, Knights Temp
lars conclaves and Grand Army en-
campments for comfortably taking
care of big crowds. The hotel men do
not raise their rates here, nor make
three sleep in bed when the town
finds it has to provide for hundred
thousand people. The national con-
vention Of the Knights of Labor
was the largest gathering Of the
kind that has been held here
this year. Several more are coming.
The builders are making arrangements
to entertain their National convention,
which meets here next month and will
bring about five thousand men to the
city who are interested financially in
the trades concerned with building;
the National Association of Electro
clans will be here after that, drawn
here by the city's leading position with
respect to electrical interests: and still
later, the National Association of Ger
man Veterans will hold their reunion
here. All of these associations will be
accommodated by the hotels now open.
Three great hotels are being built, but
none of them Will be finished till the
fall.
The German citizens of st. Louis
are going to make this an exceptional

with them. These Saengerfests de-
gent for their success, as the choruses
from here are all well drilled and am
bilious At the beginning of fall,
just before the festivities of the city
commence, German Day will be cele-
brated by a great national show of
professions and music. This patriotic
celebration is generally one of the
most attractive sights of the year in
St Louis. 1t is carried out without
regard to expense, and the street
pageant is spectacle excelled only by
that of the Yelled Prophet.
