a notice Of the complaint of coal rates
to Wichita filed by City Attorney Ad-
ans mas been sent to each of the rail-
r5aGs named IN tee complaint and If no
adjustment is reached the board
The law provides that when a COM
paint is fled notice must be sent to
the roads named and they given time
10 comply or to adjust matters before
action is taken by the board. Governor
LeweTing says that notice has been
sent all the roads named in the mayor
complaint filed last week and that by
the first of the week when the board
meets in Topeka again the roads VIII
nave had time TO answer and If they do
nothing the railroad board viii come 70
this city right away TO take evidence.
Ii is not probable that the companies
will make any concessions TO begin WIN
as all the roads in the city are named,
or at least all of the roads concerned.
It has been suggested that the roads
might possibly seek to avoid the charges
o. the complaint by raising the rate to
northeast Kansas instead of lowering 1t
10 southwest The discrimination seems
ID be against Wichita and surrounding
towns as compared to Atchison, Tope-
ka and Leavenworth, the rate to this
city from the same places where Goa!
IS Shipped 10 the northeast part OF the
state being one-ifth higher for dis
tanca considerably less. The putting Up
o. rates to northeast Kansas, however,
you'd not be ar adjustment, as
the complaint charges that the rates
are too high in the absolute as well as
in compa rison with the rates to north
e1st Kansas. 1t is probable that sup
elementary charges will be flied with
the board from the towns west and
south of Wir!.ta, and wnen the coGl-
m.ssioners come to this city evidence
VIII be taken here for some three or
four other towns or adjourned sessions
taken to these, if their specifications of
complaint warrant.

1t is a well-known fact that the late
Baron James Rothschild was on excel
lent terms with Balzac, the famous
French novelist. who dedicated to him
several OF his books. One day whea he
was about to proceed to Germany and
being, as was often the case, In rather
straitened circumstances. Balzac ap-
piled to the baron, who, with his ha-
bitual generosity. handed him the sum
of 5000 francs, and at the same time a
letter Of Introduction. addressed to his
nephew In Vienna The letter was ur
sealed, as is usual In such cases. Bal
Eac read II, thought its tone rather
cool, trivial and altogether inadequate.
He scorned TO deliver II, and returned
to Paris with the autograph in his
pocket. On his arrival he waited upon
the great banker.
'pyell," said the baron, did you see
my nephew
BalEae coldly confessed that he had
kept the letter.
Il am sorry for your sake" said the
baron; have you It by you2"
why certainly; here Il Is"
DO you observe this little mark be-
low the slgnature7 Il gave you an
open credit on our Vienna bank 70 the
extent OF $4,000 francs"
Balzac bit his lips.

cOlorsd light and Growth.

NJ. Flammarion has been turning his
attention from the stars to the flowers.
He has been experimenting on the ef-
feet OF different colored lights on the
growth OF plants. His most interest
ing experiment was with a number OF
plants on the Mimosa sensitiva. He
raised them from seeds, and when one
inch high set them In four pots, a pair
In each pot. One pair he kept exposed
to ordinary white light, the others he
covered with eolored glass Lells, one
with blue. one with green and one with
red. At the end Of two months the
plants under the blue light were still
only one inch high; those under the
green had grown 10 ive Inches. and
those under the red had attained 10
sixteen inches OF height: the plants
exposed to ordinary light had grown
to height Of four inches From this Il
appears that the blue light retards
growth. that green is rather favorable,
and that red light forces the growth
much beyond the normal. Some prac-
tical use may he made OF such experl-
ments by fancy gardeners,

IL n IDEA OF what Is possible at
NA wheat farming may be gained
from what has been done by ]. w.
Richardson, Mrs. Bridgman's father,
who is In from the Bird creek country
this week. Two years ago he moved
from Horse creek with his son aud
nephew and bought 90 acre improve
ment. They had 1000 acres OF wheat
this year and estimate that the yield
will be 10000 bushels. All this crop
was put In shock without drop OF
rain failing during the time Of bar
yesting. The thresher men take the
wheat from the shock, furnishing all
the help, aud run the grain right into
wagons without measuring, takirg
the weights at the railroad, at seven
cents a bushel. IL Is calculated the
machine will be employed three weeks
on this crop. Something like 26 teams
are now turning stubble, by the acre,
the price being 60 cents. Part OF last
week AZ persons sat down to the table
at meal time.
