WANT MILLER'S PLACE.
Olathe. Kan, Jan. 27.-The announce
ment OF Congressman 4. L. Miller that
he will not be q candidate for the nom
ination for a second term caused 10 end
Of comment among the Republican
party managers in Olathe and Jahnson
county. The news was so wholly unex-
pected and the second term nomination
had been so generally conceded TO Mr..
Miller that the change threw them all
TO wondering who would be the next
candidate. That Johnson county viii
present candidate for the honor is GER
tain. Senator J. W. Parker has an
nounced himself as candidate. He
was practically the second choice can
didate for the Second congressional
convention of June, 1894, which held in
q deadlock here for two weeks and fin
ally adjourned to Lawrence. where Mil
Ter was nominated as compromise oV-
er a compact entered into by the Fun
ston and Buchan forces. Letters have
been received from ex-Congressman
Funston saying that he viii be can
didate this fall. Among other leading
possibilities are Senator J. D. Bower

Hon. George J. Barker of Lawrence
There are a number Of others who viii

WHAT PETERS WANTS.
Topeka, Kan, Jan. 27.-There has
been considerable talk over the state
about running Hon. Samuel r. Peters
OF Newton for governor or United States
senator. TO a reporter yesterday Judge
Peters said that he would not become
a candidate for governor under any
circumstances, and tina the was cordi-
ally in favor Of the denomination OF
Governor Morrill,.
However, most of the talk has been
nj the direction Of bringing the judge
out as candidate for senator, and up
on this issue he maintains a silence
which is impregnable. BY no public
word has he made known his wishes or
intentions in the matter, and It Is the
general opinion that when the time
comes he will enter the race, even at the
risk of being included among Mr.. Bur-
tons small troy"

Dainty Morning Room i.

A pretty morning room, with the wood
work finished in white enamel and the
walls covered with an old-rose cartridge
paper, has two wide doors on one side OF
the room, which are made to appear much
wider than they really are by narrow cases
for books, each about eighteen inches wide,
built each side the doorways, and so close
to them that the doors of the cases appear
to be part of the framework OF the door
way. The doors OF these cases are divided
into small panes of glass set In Write
frames, much as common window frames
would be, except that the glass Is Of better
quality. The same arrangement for books
is carried over the tops of the doors, says
the New York Post, where the fronts OF
the cases have also the small panea OF
glass set In " bite.

FACTS ABOUT MARRIAGE.
IL.

DROF. MA AYO SMITH. in volume Just
published, declares that the marriage
rate is declining all over Western
Europe. 1t touched the lowest point in
1882, but since then there has been a
slight increase i'll a few cases. In England
he says, the marriage rate has ceased for
the whole of this century to have any trace
able connection with the price of food
IL now corresponds most closely with the
value OF exports. while in Germany its
connection with the price OF rye was
visible until 1850.
Prof. Smith cites as q curious fact that
There are always, at any census In EngIa nd
more women returned as being bet twecn the
ages of twenty and twenty-five than there
We're female children a ten TO fifteen at
the preceding census ten years before.
gain, there are always more widows than
widowers. The problem of the preponder-
anee of women exists only in Old countries
Northern Europe, the United Kingdom
and in our own Atlantic States. In
Europe more males are born than females,
out the males emigrate. and, then, the
male death rate is always higher than the
female.
