Lightning struck the smOkestack of
the electrical building at the State uni
versity last week and 1t was burned.
The building, which cost about $4,000,
was built within the past five years. The
machinery, which cost about $4,000,
and which had been carefully selected
by Professor Blake, was damaged so
badly that 1t is now Of no value, The
loss is severe, not only in dollars and
cents, but because 1t practically closes
the shops and electrical department un-
til the Legislature meets.
Four young ladies, who teach In the
vicinity of Manhattan, have organized
the Riley County Teachers Quartette.
AS true Kansans, they very properly
think that a thing which Is worth doing
at all is worth doing well and they have
given special attention to instruction in
voice culture, with the result that the de-
mands for them at local and State gath
erings far exceed their ability to respond.
At the recent meeting Of the Reform
Press Association they contributed very
largely to the entertainment of the visi-
tors and every number was thoroughly
appreciated. Riley county people are as
justly proud Of this merltorious organlza-
ton as Topeka is Of Marshall's band.

that the people are not yet ready for
press censorship.
In the French Chamber OF Deputies
the Minister OF Foreign Affairs made
speech last Saturday In which he said
that France was friendly to both Spain
and the United States and that II was
to be hoped that the differences between
these countries would be settled In peace.
This expression was approved by a vote
Of 300 to Ill.
Governor Pingree's tax measure, which
he has called special session to con-
slider, Is quite radical one. It's leading
points are that the trainers of the State
constitution intended that all taxes be
based on the cash value of the property;
that taxes should be levied upon public
franchises as we'll as other property;
that the present system Of specific taxes
upon railway earnings Is unsatisfactory
and wrong; that the tax upon Michigan
railroads has been less than quarter Of
/ per cent. upon their own sworn valua-
tiOns, and less than one-eleventh Of the
percentage paid by other taxpayers. The
Governor recommended authorization OF
the appointment Of State board to make
equitable valuation Of the property Of
such corporations at their cash values
and to assess them at the average rate
Of all the taxes. A bill was introduced
covering all these points.
