the wire has been cut by intruders. T
am informed that the law creating the
board of park commissioners has been
held by the-eourts to be unconstitution-
al and void and that the commission. as
such, has no jurisdiction.
1t would have been desirable. if this
commission mas any authority, that one
OF them had been a practical man liv-
ing near the park and having an opnor-
tunity and an interest in protecting the
same. am aware that there is only a
few thousand dollars in city funds for
park improvements, but it seems fair to
assume that some slight effort should
nave been made to preserve and add a
httte TO the improvements which the
city found on the place At no great
expense the grounds could have been
permanently nclosed, a survey made
ana plat prepared for future improve
mentS and few trees planted each
year. Several of our citizens have told
me they would have been glad to have
planted trees in the park on Arbor Day
free of expense to the city had thew
been given an opportunity During The
past Few months there appears to have
been no lack of time, skill and money
IN an organized effort to create a public
sentiment in favor of voting bonds for
the purchase of a more remote tract of
land for park purposes and as shown
by the result against the wishes of the
people of the city.
My excuse for taking this public way
- Gaming attention 10 the Facts is that
the personal appeals of myself and nv
representatives have been so barren Of
results have no pecuniary interest in
the improvement of any property west
OF the city but it pains me to see so
handsome tract of ground start on II,

spent so many years of hard labor and
several thousands of dollars in improv-
ing the same

TO SEARCH RUINS.
Two Parties Coming West For the
Purpose.


Chicago, May 8.-The ruins of dwell
lngs of the Hopi Indians in northern
Arizona and of various other tribes of
Indians IN the far northwestern states
OF this country will be searched in the
next few months by two expedition par
ties to secure additional collections for
the anthropoligical department of the
Field Columbian museum. Two assist
ants in that department left last Satur-
day Tor Arizona to be gone six months
and last night DR.. Geo. A. Dorsey
curator Of the museum, started over the
Northwestern road for a three months
tour through Colorado, Wyoming, Utah
Idaho. Washington, Oregon and Cali
fOrnia
The work in Arizona" said DR.. Dor
sey before his departure, will be car
fled on by c. i. Owen and J. A Burt,
assistants in the department of anthr0-
pology. The expenses of their expedi-
tlon VIII be paid from the Stanley Nc
Cormick fund of $5,0O0 under which
work has been carried on for the last
TWO years. In the Hopi ruins it is ex-
pected to find interesting remains of
ceremonial places and utensils, also
symoolistic pottery bearing records Of
the prehistoric life and migration of the
tribe.
In the states I shall visit new ma
terlal will be collected from the Sho-
shone, Ute, Piute and other tribes, es-
Peclaly the first named. The old Fort
aah reservation of the Shoshones and
Bannocks will be visited, also the Wind
river reservation of Wyoming"

DEARTH OF LIEUTENANTS.
The War Department Will Be Short
About Fifty.

New York, May S.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
An Importance scarcely second to
that OF the increase of artillery is at
tached by the secretary of war to the
clause in the pending army bill provid-
ing for the appointment by the presi-
dent Of 100 cadets at large to the mill
tary academy at West Point. This
years class at the academy graduates
only 81 to supply 100 vacancies in the
regular establishment. and after the
enlisted men are found to increase the
available worthy material perhaps to
eighty there will still remain at least
fIty vacancies in the grade of second
lieutenant. The next class at the
academy is now only about seventy
i've strong, and viii graduate about
sixty The vacancies viii probably ex-
coed $50. and four years from now the
vacancies will amount to IT'S. with no
increase in the properly qualified gradu-
ates to fill them.

Property is Allowed to Go to

FENCE CARRIED AWAY.
Seems That Park Commission is
Doing Nothing.
Asks That Reasonable Effort Be
Made to Protect Park.

The following letter to the mayor and
city council with reference to Gage park
was written by Mrs. G. G. Gage, wife
of the donor:
Topeka, Kan, May 8, 1900
To the Mayor and Common Council of
Topeka:
Nearly a year ago the heirs of my
late husband G. G.. Gage, made a con-
Veyance giving to the city of Topeka on
certain conditions a hondsOme tract of
land consisting Of so acres situated
about a mile west of the western limits
of Topeka and known as Gage park In
February last 1 informed the mayor
that I wished to give up possession of
the same as the man whom I had EN-
ployed on the place was about to move
away.
The mayor referred me to the social
ed park commissioners to whom he said
jurisdiction of all park matters mad
been given by the council and 1 there
upon by my agent gave the same notice
to the chairman of the park commits
sion, suggesting that a competent per-
son be engaged to move on to the place
where there was a good tenant house
with barn. we'll, garden and springs OF
running water and that he be given pO-
lice power to protect the property
against marauders and be employed to
improve the same. Since then the boat
hause has been broken open. blue grass
sod has been cut and hauled away. the
gates have been left open to all intrud-
ers and the fence on the south side mas
been torn down and carried away and
the place has commenced going to
waste. The man who moved on to The
place is not employed by the city and is
necessarily absent at his own work A

BURNS WANTS RELIEF.
Prefers to Have His $50 Acre Farm
Out of Hutchinson.

A Hutchinson quarrel has reached the
supreme court upon an appeal from the
local court, the contention arising over a
petition on the part of J. w. Burns for
the vacation of 160 acres of land, which
years ago was made a part of an addition
to the city. The land is now a eornfield.
and is near enough to the town to be
scheduled for taxation in Reno county
The opposition to the vacation of the
land proved to the satisfaction of the
jury which heard the case that Burns
effort to escape the corporation limits is
for the purpose of evading taxation in
the city.
To this the plaintiff takes exceptions
and has applied to the supreme court for
relief After this land was taken into the
corporate limits a bond issue amounting
to $196 500 was voted and the share of
taxes on this alone amounts to a snug
sum. Hence the claim of the defense, that
Burns is DESTROYS of evading taxes.
