THE MAN WHO UNDERTOOK NAN

There was a man who understood music,
And. right at the very next door.
There was man who understood Ac1ence-
And neither knew anything more.
And next to him was a metaFSS-<acian
of deep psycholosical lore: -
And neither knew anything more.
And all around these was business crew.
Who attended to bus.aess--and that's all
And 4 hammered that the mar who under

Was the dreariest kind OF bore.
A bore TO the man who understood science,
Who lived al the very next door.
And they both were bores to sse meta
And both were incurably dreary;
And all OF the three made the great fheo-
Most unintermsttentlv weary.
And the mer all around them. the business
With none OF the four had the first thing

For the n.uHcai n.an told the scientist man
All the musical lore that he knew.
And the scientist man did thu musical
With his scientist volleys pursue.

That he nsish, d;sembosue in his paipitant

For every one reached for the other ones
All wanted to talk. and none wanted to

Hay Quit Business.

The branch of the old Frisco road,
now known as the st. Louis, Kansas
Il Southwestern, between Arkansas
City and Anthony, a distanceO Of about
80 miles, which is now in the hands OF
a receiver, is causing the people along
the line considerable worry. The re-
ceiver says the road was assessed too
high and that in case he is compelled
to pay the full amount OF the taxes as
now assessed he will not have, any
money to operate the line and will
consequently have TO abandon it.
The road is ahe only outlet which
the people living along it have and
they are extremely anxious that the
receiver shall not cease running the
trains. A delegation of citizens living
along the southern portions of Sum-
0er ana harper COUNTIES went 10
Topeka the first of the week and called
upon the attorney general aud asked
If there was not some method by
which the taxes could be RENTED, or
at least the assessment be reduced by
the state board Of railway assessors.
The attorney general held that the
board having completed its work and
