BREIDENTHAL'S REPORT.
1t is out and Asks for the Law of ses.

1t is Out and Asks for the Law of 1898.
The biennial report Of the state bank
commissioner is out In this report Bank
Commissioners BreidenthaI recommends
that the law of 1898 be again passed for
his department, permitting the employ
ment of two deputies. one clerk and a
stenographer, and further, that the fee
for examination Of banks be increased,
as the present provision of the law upon
the fee question has proved inadequate
for the maintenance of the department
He IS of the opinion that when a re-
ceiver is appointed for bank, and no
tice posted that it is closed, that this
should place the bank in the hands of a
receiver and protect it from any legal
process, and that.the United States court
should be prevented from appointing re-
ceivers for banks until it is shown that
the bank commissioner has neglected and
refused to perform his duty.
Mr.. Breidenthal says the expenses of q
receivership are simply outrages and par
take very much of the nature of high
way robbery egalized of course.

Their little chapel near the Oakland
postohice was crowded with communi-
cants and interested spectators
The Dunkard5 in their scriptural trans
lation are extremely literal, especially so
on passages relating to the supper in
the upper room at Jerusalem the
night before the Savior was betrayed
As one Of their speakers expressed it,
'.Fhe Lords supper was held at supper
time and not in the morning. In order
to properly commemorate it. therefore,
we must do 90 at supper time. A Lords
supper in the forenoon is not a supper at
all"
The communicates sat at two long ta-
bles in the front part OF the church. The
men sat at one table and the women at
the other They formed striking group.
The women wore little white hoods with

REAL ESTATE PROSPECTS.
As Viewed by J. 5. CoIIins-Farms MUS
Sell First.


J. S. Collins said today in speaking Of
the condition of real estate: Il ind a
great inquiry for farms principally from
Ohio and Pennsylvania and if Kansas
had raised good crops this year there
would have been a very large immigra-
ton this winter but in spite Of bad crops
a great many people will come to Kansas
this fall and winter
"The greatest drawback Of a country is
a lack Of confidence among the people
at home. A man hears people talk Of
hard times until he thinks he is hard up
but just soon as people commence to
brighten up the feeling is entirely
changed and that Is just what is hap
pening now.
aFarms will have to sell before real
estate in the city commences to move
much. The trouble with Topeka now is
that the city got ahead of the country
and this must be reversed before the
situation is greatly improved"

barrels was sold in Kansas be next

and in the next year 1892, bat l,048 barr
rels OF beer were sold.
Since Governor Lewelling has been AZ
the head or affairs Of state there has been
a great increase in the sales of beer aa

his administration, there were 2.6I7 bar-
rels Of beer sold and this has been DOE
creased to such an extent that for the
