Mr.. Editor The month of March
has passed away and the city council
have accomplished nothing yet. 1T is
about time the citizens had something
to say about it. A do nothing coun-
Gil is no better than a laundering
council and we are not obliged to pay
men for fooling away valuable time.
We put them there for the purpose of
prudentially and efficiently carrying
on the affairs of the city. If they
cannot do this we should get a coun-
Gil that can, SO let them get on to
their job or the citizens may get on to
them. J. T. Callaghan.

her Algerian army from among them,

An engine and one car, carrying one
passenger, left the Santa Fe depot at
1880 o'clock this morning with orders
to catch the California Limited which
left Topeka at 1927, almost an hour
sooner.
A Mr.. Crane, of the company by that
name that manufactures elevators,
missed the Limited at Kansas City. His
wife and family were on board. He
wired to Topeka for a special train and
came here on No. arriving here at
11:30. The special was standing on the
track with steam up. Mr.. Crane jump
ed from No. to the special and in six
seconds the engine and one car were
under way. The single passenger had
given word that he cared nothing for
expenses but that he must overtake his
wife. The special was given the right
of track. 1t made the uphill run to
Pauline and passed that station going
so miles an hour Wakarusa was passed
at 11:45. The IL miles from Topeka had
been made in Is minutes counting the
slow run through the yards, the stop
for the Missouri Pacific crossing and
the climbing of the Pauline hill.
The Limited leaves Topeka at 1927
and makes the 1876 and Clio miles run
to Newton in hours and % minutes,
arriving there at 2:05. The special left
Topeka at 11:S0 with orders to reach

of a little more than a minute and a
quarter to the mile counting necessary

An Indian Bride to Be Sold on
the Block
Usage Girl Will Be Given to the
Highest Bidder.
PALEFACES BARRED.
VIII Be Lively Competition
Among the Braves.
Mary COrndrOpper, Handsome
and AristOcratics

Independence, Jan. 5.-The aristocra-
cy of the Usage Indians are looking
forward to the marriage of Mary Corn
dropper, the only daughter of ex-Chief
Frank Corndropper, with great pleas
ure. According to a custom in vogue
among the Osages from time immem-
orial. she will be sold to the highest
bidder, the compensation being made in
ponies. Chief Corndropper lives south
west of this city, and, owing to his
former official capacity, is one of the
best known Indian braves of the tribe.
OF course, he and his wife are full
bloOdS, and as only fuil-bloods can in
termarry in this tribe, only that class
of Osages will be allowed to bid on the
girl Mary is an exceptionally good
looking squaw; she is % years old, but
has not much education. She has been
twice before sold in marriage, and be-
cause of her beauty brought heaps OF
ponies both times. Her first husband
John Logan prominent member OF
the Usage council, was the second huS-
band. and he paid 300 ponies. Both
marriages proved unhappy, and sepa-
ration followed. This is why she is to
be put upon the block again.
In accordance to an irOnclad rule
among this tribe the parents of the
competing young men will have to do
the bidding, and the bride, who will be
arrayed in blankets trimmed with
silks and beads of the gaudiest coIors,
principally scarlet. will announce the
result by riding into the arms of the
successful bidder. The marriage cere-
mony is then completed by the parents
of the bride taking her into the house.
where she will be stripped of all her
clothing, which will then be torn in
two and divided equally between the
parents Of the bride and the groom,
who will retain them as long as the
couple live happily together.
After the marriage ceremony a big
feast will be had in which many beeves
will be consumed and the festivities
will be concluded with a dance, last
ing three days. About 800 guests will
be invited to attend the wedding and
dance. Miss Mary, like the rest of her
tribe, is quite rich. and 1900 acres of
land will go to her husband as soon as
they are welded. The couple will live
with the brides parents.

Senator Shelby NJ Cullom Of Illinois:
The word trust" is used indiscrfmin-
ately. Aggregate capital is not neces-
sarily a trust, even though 1t be large.
Nothing is a trust except when different
concerns that have been in competition
pool their issues, transfer all their prop
erty, and new combination is organ
lied for the purpose of taking over their
property and practically creating a
monopoly of the business in which they
are engaged. If that condition of
things ever comes to the establishment
of a monopoly in business, by whatever
means 1t shall be brought about, or
however it be named, that thing is
harmful and prejudicial to the com
munity. A consolidation without mon
opoly is but an evolution of present con-
ditions, and you can no more stop the

attention.
