JUDGE John A. Williams of the fed.
eral court, recently decided the cases
of Peter A. II. Jackson Of New
York and Richard S. Dow of
Boston, VS.. the city of Humboldt, by
giving to them judgments amounting
to $4,000. The cases have attract
ed national attention because of their
peculiar nature. Many years ago
Humboldt voted bonds for the Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas railroad COM
pany. These bonds were repudiated
by the city government and IN order
to evade the payment the municipal
ity was dissolved Since then the
town has been governed by regularly
elected officers who never qualified.
The courts were thus prevented from
getting service.
Judge Williams held that Mayor
W. D. McEIroy and Treasurer J. P.
johnson, though they had not quail
fed, were the legally elected Off
GERS of the city, and that service upon
them in q process against the city was
valid. Upon the failure of these de-
PENDANTS to appear in court the judge
instructed the jury to find verdicts of
$751;, 429 SO for jackson, and SlO,6OO
for Dow. The court also issued at
tachments for Mayor McEIroy and
Treasurer johnson, instructing the
marshal to bring them before the
court to answer to the charge of con-
tempt.

Mr.. HARRIS has succeeded in get
ting the Fort Hays Military Reserva-
ton in Ellis county, granted to the
state. The bill provides:
THAT the abandoned Fort Hays
Military Reservation and all the i'm
provements thereon, situated in the
state of Kansas, be, and the same is
hereby, granted to said state upon the
conditions that SAID state shall estab-
llsh and maintain perpetually there
on, first, a western branch of the Kan
sas Agricultural College; second, a
western branch of the Kansas State
Normal Institute, and that in connec-
ton Herewith the said reservation
shall be used and maintained as a
public park: ProUjded, That said
state shall, within five years from and
after the passage of this act, accept
this grant, and shall by proper legis-
lative action, establish on said reser-
walton western branches of the Kan
sas Agricultural College and the Kan
sas State Normal Institute; and when
ever the lands shall cease to be used
by said state for the purpose herein
mentioned, the same shall revert to

ty, and who is the only democrat in
the house, been consulted, he would
have indorsed G.. Webb Bertram.
The result of it all proves again
that the democrats of Kansas are in
politics only to be used by one or the
other of the two stronger parties.
This was SO in 1892 when the demo-
Gratis helped to put the populists into
power and in 1894 when they with
held their support from their former
allies and thus left the way open for
the republicans to return to power
In the deals and combines to get the
bill through the legislature so as to
relieve the supreme court Of it's bur-
dened docket, democratic senator
was instrumental, but when the OPP
portunity came to recognize the party,
man who had become a candidate of
the party secured the prize, and more
than that was put in division where
he will stand no chance Of an election
by the people.
The result Of the controversy proves
another thing, and that is that David
Overmyer has the strongest pull in
the democratic party of Kansas, and
hereafter will be its leader.

Lucien Baker, the new senator
elect from Kansas, was on the floor of
the senate for the first time the other
day, and was introduced to his asso-
ciates by MIR. Martin, whom he sue

MIR. Baker said later OF the money
question; In common with vast
majority of my people, | believe in
the enlarged use Of silver ard the
monetIzation of the American produc-
ton of the metal. Something is rad
ically wrong with the country. The
repeal of the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act did not bring the prom
Used relief, nor is there any prospect
of prosperity as result Of democratic
tariff tinkerng. On the tariff it

body wants to bring IN .
we do produce or manufacture, le'
them pay for the privilege. Then
there is no doubt of the advantages OF
reciprocity, and that policy so ably
expounded by MIR. Blaine, should be
fostered and developed. In addition
to this, give silver fair play aud an
equal chance and there ~ no reason
to doubt that the United States VIII

A CURIOUS CALCULATION.
Around the World 2oe Times.

An eminent physician has made curious
mathematical calculation in giving the
workings of the human heart in mileage.
He shows that in lifetime of "a years
the blood as it passes through the heart is
thrown distance of 5,150,8S0 miles, which,
in continuous stream, would reach around
the world 206 times
Keeping in view this constant strain on
the heart, and taking into consideration the
abuse it receives from over-exerton, alco>
holc and other stimulants, is il any wonder
that it finally becomes affected, refuses to
perform its work, and causes death? The
fact can be readily understood that one in
four has weak heart, also the Importance OF
treating that organ as soon as its affected con-
dition is in the slightest degree manifested.
Reader, if you have any reason whatever
for believing your heart to be affected. you
should attend to it at once Do not hest
tate. Many persons who die suddenly of this
disorder have never suspected its presence.

WHATS wrong in Germany, any
how? We have been told that the
trouble in this country at present, Is
on account of the tariff laws permit

An English woman,s club,

English women, like Englishmen,
possess talent for enjoying the advan
tages and comforts of q club that their
American sisters know nothing about
An English woman's club is first of all
a convenience, soothing luxury, an
oasis in domesticity, quiet, independ-
emit nook, where the last book or maya
zine, cup of good tea and half hours
idle talk are all to be enjoyed. Second
ar'ly and only occasionally does she use
it fer mental Improvement She is not
overload of having herself warned,
threatened, cosxed or derided in her
clubs sacred precincts by series of
members who cherish opinions. Neither
does she wish to 60 to school in her
club, since she asks of it relaxation, not
cultivation. Now and again she requests
some person of recognized ability to
come and talk to her in her clubrooms
on some special topic of current interest.
She likes vigorous debate or clever
recitation at intervals, a little good
music and an annual dinner.
There are half dozen clubs of this
sort for women in London, and another
in Newcastle has been opened recently
for mission similar to that fulfilled by
the London clubs. There is but one such
organization in all New York, where
women still have an idea that the word
club is synonymous with self improve
ment and not small personal comforts. -

tees Judge Dixon read the opinion,
holding that ''school trustees are Off
GERS within article 2, paragraph 1, of
the constitution; that if they are made
elective by the people only males may
vote for them = The decision was in the
case that came up from Vineland. Last
spring Chief Justice Beasley decided in
a road overseers' election case that
came down from Bergen county that
women cannot vote for road officers.
Afterward Attorney General Stockton
instructed State School Superintendent
Poland that the decision did not affect
the law authorizing women to vote at
school elections, and the attorney gen.
erals opinion was used in Vineland
school case, where women were refused
the right to vote at an election in July.
Superintendent Poland declared the
election illegal and set it aside. and the
county collector refused to recognize or
pay moneys to the board Of trustees ap-
pointed by the superintendent A man

court has refused the writ and denied
