LILAC TIME.

When fragrant bells hang heavily
And all the air is faint and sweet,
When south winds, blowing fitfully,
Rustic the warm grass at my feet
When brown bees, circling in the
sun,
Drone their content in drowsy rhyme,
Then know 1 heaven is nearer earth
In lilac time, in lilac time.

The architecture of the houses and
hotels in New York has advanced so
rapidly in the last ten years, that there
Is now no city in the world which
contains so many beautiful and various
specimens. The magnitude and splen-
dor of the new hotels astound Eu-
ropeans who visit us and who have
been taught to believe that Paris, Lon
don and the Riviera lead the world.
There is no royal room in Europe to
compare with that Of the Hotel Wal
dorf, and no Turkish room in any
oriental harem to approach in luxury
the room so called in the Hotel Savoy.
For the bridal suite at the Hotel New
Netherland the modest price of 500
per day is asked, exclusive of board.
The Astoria, now being erected next
the capital city would not be able
to the Waldorf, is to eclipse them all,

EmeFy's Essay on tho MlsslS-
Slppi Overflow.

LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 2S.--The dele
gates to the sixth annual meeting of
the National Irrigation congress are
nearly all here and the convention held
its first session this afternoon, when
the usual speeches of welcome were
delivered and organization perfected.
The attendance is fairly representative
of the arid and semi-arid states. The
surprise OF the convention is the dele
CATION from Oklahoma, which is here
with the agowed purpose Of securing
the gathering of 1898 for Guthrie.
This delegation consists of R. Kleiner,
of Oklahoma City, Henry E. Glazier
and c. P. Rock, of Saltwater. The
claims of Boise, Idaho, Portland, Ore,
Fort Worth, Tex, San Antonio, Tex,
and Omaha, Neb., will also be put
forth. The other delegates appear
rather indifferent, but seem to think
the claims of Oklahoma are worthy Of
careful consideration. Omaha wants
the meeting on account of her EXPOSE
ton next year and Boise puts forth an
attractive plea.
Utah is represented by DIR. Young, a
nephew Of Brigham Young's son. Col
orado is represented by A. B. Moulton,
of the land department of the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad. Kan
sas has George Leis and Prof j. s.
Emery, Of Lawrence; Col. e. R. Moses,
Of Great Bend, and P. A. Hammett, Of
Marysville, on the ground alive TO her
interests The Kansas delegates are
we'll TO the front in all the arrange
ments and It seems to be generally
recognized that Kansas has become one
of the great irrigation states Of the
union, and as such is entitled TO dis
tinguished consideration in gatherings
OF this kind. Missouri has a number
of delegates here, among whom are J.
E. Chaplin and ]. s. Cooley, Of St. Jo-
seph.
Col. Moses, Of Great Bend. Kan, as
the chairman Of the congress and an
irrigationist Of national reputation,
has a general supervision over all mat
tiers, and 1t is largely due 10 his con-
slant agitation of the subject and his
appeals to men in authority that the
congress is made possible and so many
delegates are here.

he WIN Invite jail Sentence and Bring
Habeas Corpus Proceedings.
Topeka, Kan, Sept. 9s.-Webb Nc
Nall will not issue license to the New
York Mutual Life Insurance Co. 1t
may be that Judge Williams suspected
as much, for he said, In effect, that the
company can do business without Mr..
McNall's license, though the company
is entitled to its mandatory injunction.
The programme is for McNall to
keep still and wait for an order from
Judge Williams to issue the license.
The order, If one be issued, is to
be put in McNalls desk and left
there, but no license is to be issued.
In due course of time it is expected
that Judge Williams will order Nc
Nall to be arrested for contempt If
he does, McNall is to go to Jail and be
made as comfortable there as the Jail
authorities will permit, while Attor-
ney-General Boyle shall go to Wash
9ngton TO ask the United States SUI
pfeme court for writ of habeas cor
pus. That would bring the question
squarely before the supreme court in
very short period of time. 1t would
bring a decision sooner than anything
else. Beyond that there is no pro-
pramme.

How Convict Worked His Way Out OF the
Kansas PenltentIary.
TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. 2s.- Homer A.
Call, convict, has been released from
the penitentiary-+given an uncondi-
tional pardon byGOv. Leedy. Call was
sent up from Labette county for
term of 10 years for assault upon Laura
Havely, girl under is years old. A
week ago Call wrote Gov. Leedy and
told himsthat he had taken the girl to
Missouri and was properly married
there. He stated that upon his return
the brother of the girl prosecuted him
maliciously and had him convicted.
Gov Leedy wrote Call and told him
that il he would send for the girl
and marry her at the peniten-
tiary he would pardon him. Call
agreed to this, and few days ag a
girl appeared at the penitentiary and
said her name was Havely. She asked
for Call and the two went before Chap
lain Balleau and were married. Calls
pardon arrived from the governor the
next day and he was free. Since the
marriage" it has developed that the
woman who appeared at the peniten-
tiary was not Miss Havely at all, but
an imposter. Miss Havely's brother
has written State Auditor Morris that
his sister is in Texas, and has not been
away from her home; that she Is to be
married in few days to Texas man.
Call, however, is free, and he cannot
again be placed in Jail, as he was un-
conditionally pardoned.
