a suit on their bonds. The de tailed duties Of overseers are found ill Sections 22 and g, and among other things they must erect and keep in repair a guide post at the forks and crossings of every public road in his district, with plain in scriptions, etc.
 The commissioner and overseers are required to hire and buy the best of everything and the county court is specially required to see this section enforced (Sec. 24). All laborers and teams hired can be paid for only after an ac- count is made out, sworn to, ap- proved by the overseer or commis- sioner, and allowed by the county court.
 Sec. 2S declares that when the county court shall have made an order compelling county prisoners to work on the roads and they shall perform said services under the direction of the overseer i'll any district that the court and commits sioner may direct. The prisoner is allowed 75 cents day, or his fine and cost and ST if he board himself, otherwise the overseer gets 40 cents for boarding and keeping him.
 The foregoing is a synopsis of the act, covering all material points. In another article 1 hope to comment on the law from a practical point.
 Justices of the Peace should study carefully the whole act at once; for they must be prepared to put the machinery ill motion at the approaching October term of court. The size, shape and number of the districts, with suitable men for commissioner and overseers are the points specially to be thought about. JNo. G. B. SIMMs.

Obeyed His Instructions.

A certain charming young lady is visiting friends on Topeka aven- ue. She graduated recently from Kansas University, and is still in her teens. The other evening she was having q tete-a-tete on the porch with the youngster who is the eldest son of her hostess-when the subject of age was brought up.
 And how old are youa" the little fellow asked.
 "How old would you think?" ea,ne the reply, and to the young lady's amusement and his mothers S discomfort the boy promptly re piled:
 Twenty-Five.
 His mother then told him that whenever he was asked to guess a young womaia's age he must say s.16. !"
 Sunday night few friends of the Topeka avenue hostess came up. Again the conversation drifted to age. This time the youngster thought he would be all right, 50 when asked to guess the age of one young woman, he replied; Il guess you are I6, but you look older than mama. "-Topeka Cap ital.

Corbett's Defeat

Although James Co .bett lost to JEFF
fries on Friday night in New York, his
game and splendid battle against a
heavier and stronger man stamps him
as the best pugilist of his weight in the
world today. Throughout the entire
argument he maintained his end with
marvellous pluck, and his superb skill
as boxer never showed to better ad-
vantage.
His defeat must have been q bitter
pill for him, for could he have mastered
the CONC ueror of Fitzsimmons it would
have wiped out the Carson defeat and
pedestal, where he has such ambition
to be. Even in defeat he stands in
better feather with the ring than he
did before, because the impression had
gone out that he was not really look
ing for another battle. He was against
heavier and stronger man but at no
time during the twenty-three hot
rounds did he show any disposition to
shirk responsibility. He out pointed
his burly antagonist in every round
and left the ring without a mark.
Had he have been disposed he could
have held his man off at long range
for the last three rounds and by stay
ing until the end OF the journey would
have secured the decision on points
That he made no attempt to do this
shows that he had confidence in his
ability to come to close quarters with
his man and give blow for blow He
missed one chance to duck swing
| from the giant and the result was de-
feat fr0G single blow, for it does net
seem from the dispatches that-the bat
teries of the bo.lermaker did him any
material damage. Jeffries was badly
beaten about the face but to man oil
his physique it counted for but little.
The two will probably give return
match at the Paris Exposition and i,
will set France wild.

The Reason Why

A few days ago a Carson youth, who
had been corresponding with a San
Francisco girl with view to matrimony
received the following:
My Dear Charlie:-I have been for sew
eral days bracing myself to write you
this letter. Papa and mamma both tell
me to write you, or if l do not they will,
that you will be no longer welcome at
IS Broadway. You must know how
much pain it gives me to pen these lines
but they are both so firm in:their resolve
few days to ascertain the real reason
and let you know.
No matter, Charlie, how much they
may turn againet you l think you are
the best man in the world and am still
your own loving,
ANGELINA
The youth tore his blonde hair, got
half drunk with excitement and wrote
for further explanation.
Yesterday he received the following:
Dear Charlie:
The reason you will no longer be
received at 1S- Broadway is because
we have moved to 80 Sacramento
Take the cable car and you are landed
i right at our door. Now | am even on
the April fool joke you played on me
last month. Come down soon.
AS ever yours, etc.
| Charlie is about town now in his
normal state
