The Board Of Education will meet to.
night. Tho new building committee will
mako a report Oh the matter Of continuing
work on the new High School.
The committee has already decided that
work should DO continued and will SO
recommend. 1t is felt tho city could not af-
ford to turn back ut this time.
Another matter which will probably
come before the board is the o section OF o
member to succeed John r. Hartman, who
resigned from the Fourth Ward. The older
members Of tho board desire to elect Will
liam Turner, but j. Prince Ford, the 9TH
or member from that ward, has SO far de-
ciined to nominate Mr.. Turner for the
place, and it is not likely he will do so to-
night. It's expected he will nominate
John r. McCabe, but it is likely the frie nds
OF Mr. farmer will be able to elout him.
The board will also act On the new rule
and bylaws.

Anybody who heard Senator Allen of
Nebraska deliver his famous Is hour
speech against the bill for the repeal Of
the Sherman silver act would hardly be-
licve that anything could stump him, vet
there is an experience in the senator's
life which shows that after all he is like
unto other mortals.
Il was campaigning in my state once"
said tn" senator when had occasion to
speak at fair grounds. The grand stard
was full, and the occasion seemed to be
full Of promise for an orator ovcrhowing,
as was, with political gospel. Just US
had commenced man brought out an os-
tnch hitched to suIky. | dou't know
whether you ever saw the trotting ostrich
IN the east. but out west he was great
attraction. Well, rs soon as that bird be-
gun to run around the track wasn't in
it. The ostrich monopulizcd the attention
OF every man, woman and child. When
the bird stopped, the people listened TO
me, but when he threw ont his long legs
again there was roar Of laughter and
applause which drowned every word
uttered. Finally | gave it up let the
trOtting ostrich have everything his own
Hay.

It Was Passed by the Populist LeRls-
lature of Kansas.
Topeka. Feb. 12.-The state supreme
court in the case of the Atchlson, To-
peka and Santa Fe Railway company
against l. P. Campbell. has handed
down decision holding the act of the
legislature requiring railroads to fur
nish free transportation to shippers of
live stock to be unconstitutional. The
court was unanimous, and It's decision
reverses both the appellate court aIN
the Sedgwick county district court.
The railroads have furnished shippers
of one carload free transportation to
market, the shippers paying their fare
home. For two carloads or more the
shipper is carried free both ways. The
Populist legislature of 1897 passed the
law declared unconstitutional. 1t pro-
vided that shippers Of one carload
should be carried free both ways.

know I am burned ornery,
A fresh and blooming Gus;
A fool, a crank, an idiot;
All these If nothin wuss.
I've always been burned ornery,
But that lcouldn' t help;
If nature fashioned me a cur,
l have to be whelp.
My nature leads to snarling
At those of better breed
But can whine and whlmper
/ At sight of good square feed.
Why can't | jine with Roberts,
And share his bread and board:
With Townsend or Gale Layton
Divide their growing hoard?
No wonder I'm burned ornery,
1t seems coufounded hard
My stuff won sell whileBateman
Gets seven cents a yard.
If weren't born burned ornery,
Hard luck would make me So
They all grow fat on turkey,
While just starve on crow.
It's plain | am burned ornery,
That's what the folks all say,
It's useless to deny it,
For | was built that way.
So now I've reached perfection
In orneriness,-by far
The biggest pebble on the beach,
I'm now a Regular.

III there ever is any trouble in the
congregation about the music. and il the
minister ever worries himself, it is ad.
mittcd at once that the congregation and
the minister are alone to blame" writes
Ian Maclaren in The Ladies' Home Jour.
mel But there are other difficulties, and
they may he mentioned in a spirit OF be.
coming humility. For one thing. the or.
ganist is an artist, and every artist has a
nature Of special refinement which can.
not bear the rough and tumble ordinary
methods OF life. With man of common
clay you deal in a practical straghtfor-
ward and even brutal fashion, arguing
with him, complaining to him and put.
ting him right when he Is wrong. But no
man must handle precious porcelain In
such fashion, or the artist will be in.
htantly wounded and will resign and car.
~ his pathetic story to every quarter. for
a. a rule the organist thinks that he 10
lifted above criticism and public opinion.
1t is impossible to teach him anything.
1t Is nm insult to suppose that anything
could be better than the music he pro-
vides."

Mont Parnasse. The advance of the
demonstration was parked by unceas-
ing and increasing Shouts Of "Vive la
commune" and "Vive panarchie" and
the singing of La Carmagnole" and
other revolutionary songs. The pro-
cession was headed by a half dozen
socialist members of the chamber Of
deputies. When the cemetery was
reached number of red flags were
produced and waved. The police tried
to seize them and several free fights
eAsued. The uproar increased until M.
Viviani induced the police to return

not be again unfurled.
