NUMBER Al.

Dr. S. Is. Bell, of Kansas City, Kan,
gave Kansas university land worth
100000, which might be disposed of as
the board of regents saw fit, to raise
funds for building a branch in Rose
dale of the medical department of the
university. Included in this gift is
seven acre tract of high, well drained
and we'll wooded land on Thirty second
street, near the Southwest boulevard.
The board of regents went to Kansas
City and looked over the property and
decided to build the hospital on this
tract. The plan in view of the board
of regents is to build the largest hospi>
tai in the west Students in the medi-
cal department of the university will be
given course of two years at the uni
versity at Lawrence and will spend the
next two years in practical work at the
hospital. Plans for building are beng
drawn by a Kansas City architect. The
board of managers appointed by the
board of regents have been empowered
to accept or reject the plans for the
building, dispose of real estate as they
deem best and solicit and accept other
donations for the hospital. The Kansas
legislature will be asked this winter to
appropriate money for the building of
the hospital and it is expected to begin
work on it next spring.

such uniform system of school taxation as
will insure equal opportunities to all chill
dren.

Cuban Trade.

WASHINGTON, d. c., December 31.-The
government of Spain, in an earnest desire
to evade the threa; sned tariff vars between
Cuba and the United States, has under seri-
Gus and favorable consideration the cession
to Cuba the privilege of arranging her own
revenue budget, including tariffs with the
United States. This Cuban budget is to be
subject to the approval of Spain.
The great i'm porting houses of the Allan.
tic cities are clam Oring at the doors of the
state department and threaten to appeal to
congress for some speedy action to protect
their business. They represent that at pres
ent the United States is losing trade of
100000 barrels of -four per annum, all of
our commerce in machinery formerly pur-
chased by the Cubans exclusively IN the
United States. all of the hardware and a
large proportion of the potato trade, and
a very important part of our exports to the
West Indies. The total reduction in our ex-
ports to Cuba for the year since the lapse
of the reciprocity agreement will amount
to not less than so per cent.
All the arguments of Spain IN extenuatiOn
of her action in increasing the duties have
been based on the contention it was an in
evita BILE consequence of the repeal of their
reciprocity agreement by our tariff act and
that this was to exclude the United States
from the benefits of the minimum tariff no
matter what the disposition of the Spanish
government may have been, in fact that it
was the result of our own act. But at the
department of state it is held the reciDro-
city agreement has nothing to do with the
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1895-01-05

JAMEsTowE. n. Y, December %. The ar
rest of George W. Depew on suspicion of
being the murderer of Mrs. Winslow Shear
man and her daughter, Mrs. Clinton, has
caused great excitement here. One or two
persons who saw him say that his appear
ance corresponds with the description of the
image of the one seen in Mrs. Shearman' 8
eye as if standing in STOPPING position.
The discussion over the posi- oIlity of iden-
tifying murderer by the image left on the
retina of the victims eye has therefore been
revived with great intensity here. Those
who saw the image before it was blurred by
the removal of the eye from the socket re-
mem ber the image so distinctly that they
could identify the general outlines of the
mans figure from it and the half profile re-
vealed in the image.
Before the removal of the eye the image
was sharply defined. Even the wrinkles in

First Great Snow

The first great storm of the season swept
down upon the east December % and ex-
tended all over the region as far west as the
Mississippi river and south as far as North
Carolina. In consequence of the snow fall,
which was unusually heavy, railroad traffic
in all portions of the east is either entirely
abandoned or greatly delayed
In New York snow began to fall at 4
O'Clock b. m. and the wind was blowing a
gale from the northeast. The velocity OF
tie wind increased until at midnight hur-
ricane was blowing, with the snow falling
thickly. The North and East rivers were
wrapped in clouds of the driving snow and
objects were invisible at a distance of not
more than a few yards.
Reports from the interior indicate more
or less serious interruption to railway traf-
fic, central New York showing the most
general disturbance.
The storm all along the New England
coast is heavy. In Maine the heavy snow
fall is a source of gladness to lumbermen
who are waiting for an opportunity to clear
the camp of the seasons cut.
