KANSAS RAILROADS.

General Claim Agent Hollister, Of thu
Missouri, Kansas & Texas, has rendered
his resignation. He is succeeded by
William Grouse, late of the Wisconsin
Central. The Office is at Parsons.
The Santa Fe has commenced prose-
cution against the coal restlers of west
ern towns along their line Of road. 1t
was formerly the custom of railroads in
western Kansas to throw out coal to the
poor settlers at each station. This Gus
tom was followed SO long that the peo-
pie began to think thoy owned the rail-
road lines, and to help themselves from
every coal car that happened along the
way, which resulted in large loss to
the companies yearly. The roads have
at last become aroused and will prose
cute all offenders in the future.

THE Russian Government has issued
a ukase or decree requiring Jewish
artisans to reside where official boards
of trade exist. AS these official
boards of trade exist in only about 10
per cent. of the towns of Russia, this
latest edict will bear particularly hard
upon that unfortunate people. The
object of the Russian authorities is
sufficiently apparent; and the result
cannot but be another exodus, with
all its consequent misery on the
frontier and elsewhere.

WnshInC Away INC Earth.

A French geologist has made a
careful calculation of the amount of
solid matter yearly carried off into
the ocean by the action of the rivers
of the world and other causes. He
estimates that the reduction Of the
average height of the surface of the
solid land Is 0.006 inches each year.
Making allowance for the CORE
spending rise in the bed of the ocean,
and taking no account Of the occur
renee of the volcanic and other ex-
ceptional phenomena-the process of
disintegration-the period at which
the solid land will have ceased to ex-
ist, and the surface of the earth will
be covered with water have been es-
timated.
AS, however, that period is 4, 500,
600 years distant, the prediction need
cause no immediate disquietude.

Needs OF the Educational Exhibit.
Though We have raised something
over $4,000 through the contributions
of the pupils and teachers in the public
and UNCONVENTIONAL schools, this, with
what will be raised from the same
source hereafter, will not be more than
sufficient to put our work in form
oreditable to tho state. Nearly $l,S00
of this amount has already been ex-
pended in tho work Of preparation.
We need from the state through its
legislature sum sufficient to provide
tables and cases in the state and ma
tional buildings; to cover transporta-
tion Of material to and from Chicago;
to care for and properly explain the ex-
hibits during the six months Of the ex-
position; to pay for publishing our
History of Education in Kansas"
Eight thousand dollars would probably
cover the total expense; $4,000 will be
needed for the history alone should we
print 1000 copies for distribution and
exchange. Very truly yours,

Superintendent.
