Kansas First State House at Pawnee Near Fort Riley.

Efforts are being made by. the people
of Kansas, says the Chicago Chronicle,
to preserve from the raEages of time
the first state house erected there. It
is one of the few relics of early days
left standing there. and it was built
when the settlement of the west was
just beginning,

Pawnee not one of them went to the
boarding houses as had been expected,
but they cooked in their wagons and
lived on the edge of the town site.

building and held a session, which con-

for the hiding of coyotes and -sandhill
owls. The state has been asked to pur-
chase the old ruin and preserve it for
future generations, who will doubtless

xot Probable That There Will BE
Any Decisive Changes in the Stu
turn of the Democratic Legisla-
ture to Frankfort Next Week
Adds Some Unexpected Feature
Attorneys for Both Sides Hold n
Consultation.

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 1S.-The agree
terday by which the Taylor and Beck.
ham injunction suits were postponed
until Feb. % is to operate as a truce
in the legal battle over the state Of
fees, and it is not probable that there
will be any decisive changes in tile sit
uation until then unless the return of
the Democratic legislature here next
week adds some unexpected feature.
A part of the attorneys on both sides
held meeting yesterday afternoon
and discussed several plans for consol
dating the various injunction cases in
order to avoid clash between the d.f
ferent state courts in which they are
pending, but final understanding was
not reached. A proposition which is
said to meet with favor is that all of
the cases be consolidated and be sub
mitted to a judge of one of the neigh
boring circuit court districts, excluding
both the Jefferson county and Frank
lin county courts.
Will Adjourn to Frankfort.
Louisville, Ky, Feb. 1S.-The Demo-
cratic legisla ture will adjourn 20
Frankfort. This conclusion was
reached yesterday, but a quorum not
being present in the senate prevented
the carrying out of this plan. Both
houses met yesterday and adjourned
until to-day. There will be a quorum,
its is expected, when a concurrent res
olution will be adopted to resume SIS

WRITES OF WESTERN CANADA
WHERE HE IS NOW LOCATED.
Tho Farms in His Ne,ehborhood Are
Being Rapidly Taken Up by Former
Residents Of the United States.

The following extracts from a letter
written to Mr.. BENZ. Davies, Canadian
government agent at ST. Paul, Mimi,
give an excellent idea of what is said
of Western Canada by those who have
gone there during the past two or three
years.
when we first arrived here and took
up our homes on the prairie near
Dalesboro, ASA, for short time we
had fit Of the blues but now all
hands are settled to business, hale,
hearty and contented, enjoying the
finest winter we have ever seen. We
have got very comfortably situated,
with considerable preparations for a
crop, and all hopeful. l think this is
a very fine country, and if the past sea-
sons crop is not an exception, which
they claim not, believe this is going
is filing up fast. In this township last
spring there were 25 manifestations
of land vacant and today there is not
one. can stand at my house and
count ten houses where there was not
one last spring, with six more to go up
this spring. This is only a sample Of
what is going on all round. We intend
to build a church next summer, right
close to my place, so we will be strictly
in line. 1t would have amused you to
have been here last spring. There
were crowds of land-seekers, and some
times in the spring the prairie is not
very inviting, and of course lots were
disconnected. There was one in the
crowd who jumped on me for putting
letter in the paper, only for which
he never would have come here, and
he was very hostile, but eventually he
got place and today claims he would
not take thousand dollars and move
out, so am glad he is satisfied.
well, my dear sir, as Arthur Fin
ney is about to move out in March,
with his family, and also one of my
sons, anything you can do for them to
assist them along and to make things
smooth as possible, will be greatly
appreciated by me. l will close for
this time, and will write from time to
time to let you know we are living.
Drop us a few lines to let us know
how things are moving in St. Paul.
Yours Respectfully,
"ALEX. CAMERON"
