KANSANS COMING HOME.
Twenty-Second Will Reach Leaven-
worth Not Later Than Tuesday.


Fort Leavenworth, Kan, Sept q
Major J. A. Augur, Fourth cavalry,
the officer detailed to muster out the
Twenty Kansas infantry, has
been notified that the regiment might
be expected here Monday next and not
later than Tuesday.
The original plan of having the troops
prepare their muster out rolls in the
camp at Middletown, Pa, was revoked
and the regiment ordered to proceed
at once to the mastering out point The
regiment upon arriving here will be
given it's August pay. The men will
then be furloughed, leaving enough men
on duty to guard the public property.
The furlough will be for thirty days
day as communication of ratiOns, this
sum representing the value of his daily
ration. Upon the expiration of the fur
Tough the men will have to report here,
and then, after undergoing an individ-
uaI medical examination, be paid their
months pay and communications of ra-
lions, and then be mustered out. The
task will be an enormous one, even for
a single regiment.
1t will require the preparation of 1900
discharges, the individual examination
of that number of enlisted men, and to
prepare muster roll without error. 1t
is thought that many of the men will
remain here rather than use up their
small monthly pay for travelling ex-
penses to take them to their homes and
return. Each private soldier will re-
ceive on his final discharge $23.10.

SPREADING SMALLPOX.
Newton Republican Warns People
Against Halls Circus.

Newton Republican: The health au-
thOrities of this city should carefully
inquire into the health condition of the
members of Halls circus which is billed
to appear in this city on Saturday, be
fore they allow it to show here. It is
reported on good authority that the
circus is spreading smallpox at the
places it stops on account of a number
of the employees of the concern having
been afflicted with the disease.
Martin Weineth of Wichita, a bridge
inspector on the Santa Fe, was in the
city yesterday on his return from Pu-
eblo, Colorado. He informed N. E.
Britt, proprietor of the Newton hotel,
that a few weeks ago Halls circus
showed in Pueblo. At the time, they
came there the health officials under
stood that there had been smallpox
cases among the men attached to the
circus and an inefficient inspection was
made. Nine days after the circus left
town, fifty cases of smallpox appeared
in Pueblo, caused, it was supposed, by
the baggage of the circus not having
been properly fumigated.
Newton health officials should stop
the circus from showing here until they
can produce evidence that the men have
recovered from the disease and their
baggage and that of the circus has
been properly fumigated Unless these
precautions are taken there is danger
of an epidemic being caused here.

Amount to 100000.

Bath, Me, Sept 2.-The personal as
signment of Galens Moses, treasurer Of
the Worumbo Wooden Manufacturing
company, which was announced on
Tuesday. and in which more than $780,
600 worth of property is involved, has
disclosed the fact that the assignment
is a result of embezzlement on a large
scale by ex-Mayor Fritz H. Twitcheu,
one of Baths most prominent citizens,
he having been mayor, member of the
legislature, and member of Governor
Powers council. and prominent in the
Masonic and Knights of Pythias or
ders.
TwitcheH admits the embezzlement,
but it is stated that he will not be pros
ecuted, as he is in very poor health.
Mr.. Moses will make good the amount
stolen. which is stated to be $50 600,
though it is admitted that the amount
may be greater Twitchen was mana

56,737 NEW PENSIONERS.
Added to the Rolls in the Year End
ing June 80.

Washington, Sept. 2.-The forthcom-
ing annual report of the commissioner
of pensions will show that the number
of pensions allowed during the past
fiscal year including the war of
1872. was 56.737, of which 54,S52 were
for soldiers and l .SS5 for sailors.
-Four widows We're reinstated and two
promoted and 81 orphans and relatives
bred andf thirty-nine eX-union soldiers
of soldiers were reinstated. One hun
were reinstated and 279 promoted. The
number of pensioners on the rolls June
30, 1898. was 993.714: amount paid for
pensions during the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1898, S144, 651, 879; average value
of each pension, $131.79.
Comparison shows that more pensions
for service in the war of the rebellion
were granted during the last fiscal
year than We're allowed during the en-
tire four years of Grants second term,
and the entira administration of Presi-
dent Hays; that the amount actually
paid for army and navy pensions during
the fiscal year Ending June 30, 1898, was
largely in excess of the amount paid
either during the first or second term
of President Grants administration,
and almost as much as was paid during
the entire four years Of President
Hayes administration.

FRATERNAL PARADE
Of Friday of Festival Week Will Be
the Best Seen Here.

The subcommittee on Fraterna1 pa
rade of the Topeka Fall Festival has
recommended a change in the list of
prizes for fraternal teams and the rec
ommendation will be formally adopted
at the next meeting of the committee.
The change was made necessary be-
cause there was no distinction between
teams in vehicles and on foot so far
as the prizes are concerned. Both Wo-
men and men objected to this. 1t was
at first proposed that all the teams
should march but this was deemed i'm
practicable because the women would
not consent to march in their regalia.
The committee has accordingly pro-
vided for two prizes as follows:
For the best appearing degree team
of staff, composed of women appearing
in the parade, $50.
For the best appearing degree team
or staff, composed of women appearing
the parade, $50
This will allow the women teams to
ride in vehicles or on floats while the
men will naturally march.
T. B. Brown who has had charge of
the work says that he has already re-
ceiVed many letters from teams that
want to enter the various contests. He
says that he has assurances from one
is in correspondence with several teams
from other cities.
The fraternal parade will undoubted-
ly be one of the best ever seen in Kan
sas.
The prizes which will stand as orig
inally agreed upon are as follows.
For best fraternaI float, $50; second
best, $25.
For best exhibition drill by team OF
women, $50; second best, $25.
For best exhibition drill by team OF
men, $50; second best, $25.

EYADING THE LAW.
The Treasury Department Gets After
the Makers of Patent Medicines.

Washington, Sept. 2.-The treasury
department has issued a circular call
ing the attention of collectors and rev
enue agents to the fact that the tax on
medicinal preparations is not being
thoroughly enforced, and ordering an
immediate and systematic examination
of the stocks of dealers. Large manu-
featuring chemists are reported to be
putting up a number of medicines in
style similar to proprietary medicines
in general, but bearing no stamp. Med
icinal chemical compound preparations,
many patented or trade marked, are
being improperly put on the market as
uncOmpounded chemicals and unstamp-
ed
The department says the action of
the chemits threatens the integrity of
the whole tax system under schedule Z.
as relating to medicinal articles, and
calls for the serious attention of the
entire service.
