day in Justice Booths court against
William Meldrumsand Thomas Jones,
two BOYS of the Fifth ward, accusin @
them of running job wagons without
first having taken out a license. When
trial came it developed that Meldrum
owed the b. Y academy for tuition
and he was hauling coal for the school
to cancel his bill and MIR.
Jones was merely exchanging work
with Medium. Sentence was sus-
pended On both boys on promise of
Medium that he would take out d
license for one wagon and finish haul
ing the two cars of coal he had con-
tracted to haul and see TO it that here
after when his license expired he will
do no more of this kind of work. 1t was
a peculiar case and one which City a t.
torney Whitecotton expressed himself
as disliking greatly to prosecute. There
was no ill-will on either side, the COM
planning witnesses refused to charge
fees for their services as witnesses.
All they desired was that people, 40

compete with them in their business
unless they pay a license for SO doing.

Abilene Enlightened Them,

Salina has at last awakened to the
provincial character Of that village
and the Republican, commenting on
the Ableneltes' visit Of Monday, urges
the salina people to get out, rub the
moss off their backs and acquire some
polish, such as Abilene has. II says;
"We venture the assertion there are
many people in salina who have never
visited Abilene, Mcpherson, Ellsworth,
Minneapolis or other cities within a
distance Of twenty-five, or thirty or
forty miles. II is good for these
ncighbors to exchange visits. II has
always been maintained that travel
broadens people. While Il visit to
Abilene or Mcpherson may not be
much Of 4 tour, II is sufficient to stir
up new thoughts, new aspirations
and wear away the rust which accn-
mulates when q person confines him
self entirely to his local horizon.

HAFNER APPEAL. DISMISSED,
Insurance Money Remains Exempt
From Attachment.

Among the interesting decisions
handed down by the supreme court
Saturday was one by which the ap-
peal in the Hafncr case was dismissed,
The case was brought on the new in
surance law by which money received
from insurance policies is made e.
empt from debts of husband or wife.
Mrs. Hafner's insurance money re-
ceived on the death Of her husband,
the late j. A. Hafner Of Enterprise,
was attached. The decision both in
Judge Humphreys court and in Shaw
nee county where similar case was
brought against her was in her favor
but an appeal was taken. The result
simply confirms the law and makes
her holding Of the insurance final.

afternoon on the question, Resolved,

Superior to that Of Bret Hartc" re-
suited in great downfall for the

Keats was defeated and the author
OF 1.-The Heather Chinee' was crown
ed as victor. Louise Floyd and Grace
Eieholtz were Keats defenders while
Della Coble and Della Brown stood up
for Hartc. The Lanier Circles fail
ure to hold meetings this year may
account for the slump in literary
taste and 1t behooyes the society to
get move on itself If II expects to
keep the towns standard up to the
old level. Harte should be notified
at once. He will doubtless apprc-
ciate this honor from the Kansas
literary center. As for Keats he is
dead and probably it will make nc
particular difference to him.

score on points at yesterdays meet

PROBABLY FORGOT IT.
Many Candidates Including Logan
and Nahan Neglect Statements.

About half the candidates for town
ship offices at the recent election are
liable to more or less trouble because
of failing to file statements Of election
expenses. Each year less number
comply with the law and the statute
appears to be becoming dead letter.
In some counties township officers do
not file any statements. The law
says candidates for estate, district,
county and municipal" Offices shall
file statements and 1t is doubtful ii
township Offices are meant.
Two Of the leading candidates are this
year negligent. NcitherW, II. Logan,
Republican candidate for treasurer,
nor J, II. Mahan, Populist candidate
for Judge, have filed statements,
probably forgetting all about II. The

or both for failing to I'll statement

SHE WAS STARVING.
A DICKINSON COUNTY w0MAN's
SAD PLIGHT.
Found at Topeka in Absolute Need
Of the Necessaries Of Life-Her
Husbands Hard Heartedness- "A
Life Of Trouble.

Hundreds OF old settlers in Dickin-
son county remember D. W. Wilson,
formerly county superintendent Of
schools and later postmaster at Solo
mon. They also remember his daugh-
ter, May, bright, vivacious girl.
She was a teacher in the Enterprise
schools in the latter 70s and the prin-
cipal was Albert Marter, a tall, slen-
der man, apparently worthy Of res
poet. At the close Of their term they
were married and after drifting around
the state moved to Topeka. The
father is now travelling for a seed
house and Amos Wilson, his son, is
cashier of Gov. Morrill's bank in Leav-
enworth.
A few days ago Mrs. Marter wrote
to her father that she was starving
and Mr. Wilson went at once to her
side. When he arrived in Topeka he
found that Mrs. Marter and her hus-
band had separated and thpt she was
really suffering for the necessaries Of
life. He Immediately sent her to
Leavenworth, to her brother, and told
her he would look after the few house,
hold goods she had. Mr.. Wilson found
there was a chattel mortgage Of $3.50
on the household goods, and he paid
that off and was about to ship the
household goods to Leavenworth,
when Mr.. Marter interfercd and said
part Of the goods belonged to him.
The two men quarrelcd over a d.
vision Of the property and Mr., Wilson
was arraigned in Justice Growers
court for assaulting his son-in-law
with his fists.
Mr. Wilson. says the chattel mort
gage was put on the household goods
to raise money to keep his daughter
from starving.
The case is altogether a particu-
larly sad one and the sympathies Of
Mrs. Marter's many friends in this Vi.
entity are with her in her trouble.

MAY HAVE TO REFUND.
The New Redemption Law Decision
Affects the Sheriff.

The ruling of the supreme court
reversing Its decision Of last March
and holding that the mortage re-
demption law which became effective
March II, 1898, applies to all mort
gage foreclosures no matter when thu
mortgages were written may affect
all foreclosure sales made since
March II, 1898, Outside Of the
question Of title under sheritrs deeds
for such sales Is the one Of the
sheriiI's fees, Under the old law the
sheriff received a fixed percentage Of
the amount for which the mortgage
was written, sometimes as much as
$40 or $50. The new law makes a
fixed fee Of $40 on each foreclosure
and some attorneys hold that re-
funding of all collected over $40 mnst
be refunded. A dispatch from To-
peka gives the following details con-
corning the case:
TOPEKA, Kun, Dee O. = The supreme
court of Kansas, at its sitting Satur-
day, handed down an opinion Of vast
Importance to the debtors of the state,
sustaining the constitutionality Of the
law Of 1895 which gives eighteen
months to the debtor To redeem on all
sales on execution or foreclosure Of
mortgage, whether the mortgage was
made prior to the passage Of the law
or not.
The supreme court last April had
rendered il decision in W Watkins VS..
Glenn and Beverly VS. liarni,z, holding
this law unconstitutional Mr.. Will

tin, seconded by Associate Justice Al
len, revcrses the April decision. To
this Justice Johnston dissenlcd.
The Importance Of this decision to
loan companies and mortgagors may
be realized when IL Is remembered TINT
under the law Of 1903, the mortgagor
may redeem his land for the amount
for which IL was bid in and not for the
amount upon which Judgment was
taken, or the amount of the money
which he had borrowed, 1t forces the
loan company to bid up the full amount
of the loan when buying in securities at
sheriifs' sale or else stand the danger
OF having the Ian Is taken from them
by repayment Of Il less sum than was
originally loaned. The loans In Kan
sas affected by this decision amount TO
many millions, and the full force Of IL
will be felt by companies which have
loans In the western part Of the state.
