THE STATE SCHOOL LANDS
Attracting Much Attention. GraElug
Leases aud Fences,

Leases aud Tenoes
Topeka, April CO. The law giving
county clerks the right to lease unoc-
cupied school lands, passed two years
ago, has arisen to cause the state some
embarrassment Now that the food
OF immigration has headed once more
toward Kansas, there are repeated calls
for information concerning unoccupicd
school lands open for purchase, Many
immigrants want TO buy lands, These
lands are mostly fenced now and the
state wants the fences torn down. But
the cattlcmen have the lands leased
and they are entitled to keep the fonces
up ms long Ms the leases last, Again,
as long as the land is leased homcseelS-
crs cannot get possession OF IL, This
will greatly hamper the sale of unoccu-
pied school lands, but there is no way
to help IT, The federal government
can enforce the order requiring cattle.
men to tear down fences around gov.
crnment lands, because the govern
ment does not lease the land to the
cattlemen, They SIMPLY get the use
of the land for nothing, But with the
state 1t Is different, 1t leases its school
land and gets revenue out OF II, The
leases are in the nature OF contracts
and the state cannot do anything Ia
abrogNte existing contracts.

seldom Pays to Hold Corn.

Wichita, April 3O.-The Lockhart
Grain company is disposing of 100000
bushels of corn in Kingman county,
which has been held for six years.
The company bought and cribbed it
at 90 cents bushel and now it has
been sold for 35 cents. 1t will require
$50 cars or about twenty-five trains
to carry it to market,
Figuring the shrinkage, insurance,
taxes and interest grain men say that
the storage of the corn for six years
was Improbable.

The New York Mail and Express, last
evening. printed the following: aside from
its heavy expenditures for rolling stock
and other equipment the New York Cen
trail Railroad has plans under way and in
contemplation for the Improvement of the
roadway, double tracking and new con-
struction, which, when finished. will prob
ably cost from 100000 to 10000, 900. One of
the improvements is the replacing of all of
the old bridges along the lines of the West
Shore and the Pennsylvania divisions with
modern new steel structures, which Will
greatly increase the capacity OF these roads
for a heavy freight traffic. 1t Is estimated
that this one item will cost somewhere in
the neighborhood of 100000. In connection
with the Pennsylvania division, the extern
sion of the Beech Creek road. from Clear
creek TO Heating, about fifty miles, and an
arrangement to use the tracks of the Penn
sylVania Railroad, about fOrty-iVe miles,
between Heating and the Jersey shore, is
also an important project for increasing
the revenue OF this line. The present Beech
Creek road in that district has a ninety
foot grade and the new arrangement will
give it practically q level line. thereby en-
aiding the company to haul long trains at
a minimum of expense and yielding much
larger net returns than the cOmpany's coal
traffic"

MADE A RUNAWAY RACE
LOCAL Y. VI. c. A. TEAM EASILY DE-
FEATs THE ANDERSON TEAM.
Anderson Players Displayed No Team
WOrk-Bates and Harden Car
ried on Local ROnOrs.

a poor crowd attended a poor game of
basket ball last night at the Y. NJ. G.
A. gymnasium in the contest between a
team from the Anderson association and
the local team. 1t was poor in that
the local team made a runaway race with
the game in the first half, leaving the
representatives from the gas belt hope
lessly behind. the local team winning, 30-Z.
While the Y. NJ. c. a. team did not dis
play their usual form. yet their work was
OF such fast kind and the tactics they
displayed it seemed were too deep for the
lighter and younger opponents, who seemed
to work without a system. and oftentimes
found themselves passing the ball into the
hands of the locals. In the first half some
pretty work was done by the indianapolis
team in bringing the ball down the stretch
between the goals and between the op-
posing players. A criss-cross movement
was resorted to. and in that way it was
worked into safe territory and a goal from
field was in most instances made. OF
the seven points made by the visiting
team the majority of them were made
from fouls attributed 10 local players. or
this fault much complaint was heard from
among the local team, who thought they
were being treated unfair, but as the score
had begun to pie up no open complaint
was made.
The second half was not played in such
a lively spirit as characterized the open
ing half. and in both Bates and Harder, of
the local team, and Davis. of the Ander-
son team, were conspicuous for their
quick. aggressive work.

American Railway Engineering and Main
tenance of Way Association, which repre-
sents 40 railroads. with a total trackage
of $4,000 miles in Canada, the United States
and Mexico. met in Chicago yesterday. The
primary purpose of the association is TO
bring about a uniform condition in the
railroads Of North America. and while the
is limited TO making recommen-

engineering and operating departments of
the various roads. During the convention
sixteen committees, appointed at the con-
vention a year ago. will report on the fol-
lowing matters: Grades, ballasting. ties,
rails, track, buildings, bridges and tres
ties, masonry signs, fencing and cattle
guard, signalling and interlocking. records
and reports, uniform rules and reorgani-
z~ation, water service, yards and terminals.
Following the roll-call, President ]. f.

ing with the growth of the association and
the notable progress made in improving the
roads by using better ballast and heavier
rails.

WAGNERIAN MUSIC.


The members of the German House were,
perhaps, more enthusiastic over the Wag-
ner concert last night than any similar
event of the season. This enthusiasm was
due to the fact that the members have
demonstrated that their orchestra, chorus
and musical talent is equal to the most diff
fcult renditions, and, having conquered
Wagner last night, they now feel that they
are able to handle any other composer.
The Wagner music last night was the
most difficult he ever wrote, yet the entire
programme was carried through without
being married in any respect. The orchestra
was composed of ffty-fve pieces, strength
ened by bassOons and obea from Cincinnati,
and the chorus contained about seventy
five female and fifty male voices. Each
number received repeated encores from the
big audience that crowded the hall to the
rear doors and balcony.
The first number was an overture from
"Rienzi,' which was followed by a march
and chorus from "Tannhauser' by the
mixed chorus and orchestra. Mrs. Josephine
Edmunds's solo, "Elsa's Dream from "Lo-
hengrin,' brought forth much applause.
This was Mrs. Edmunds's first appearance
in public for several years, with the ex-
ception of a year ago, when she sang in the
Bohemian Girl" given by the women of
St. Paul's Church., in English's Opera
House, and she was given a warm welcome.
20 Thou Sublime, Sweet, Evening Star,
sung by Mr.. FRANK IaylOr, was nlSnly ap-
preciated for two reasons; first. that he did
it well, and second, that he had no rehears-
al and appeared in the place of another
singer. In the spinning chorus from the
PLYING Dutchman." Mrs. Edmunds, Mrs.
+. Nj. Bachmann and Mr.. Charles Parker
were the s~olOists. In this rendition Mrs.
Edmunds's voice was heard to better adj
vantage, its compass being more apparent
and the volume rising above the mixed
chorus and full orchestra. The concert
ended with Die Meistersinger,' by the
-- - ,a-,Ingfra Tho panGfa xvaG nm
der the direction of Alexander Ernestinoff.
After the concert there was dancing.

Now Assistant Cashiers.

Yesterday, at the regular daily meet
ing Of the board of directors of the Ameri-
can National Bank, Mr.. Theodore Stemp-
fel. now discount clerk. and Mr.. Andrew
Smith. now paying teller, were elected
assistant cashiers. This will temporarily
leave vacancies in the clerical force, which

i'm a large bank, rising to the position OF
assistant cashier. He was for some years
connected with the Indiana Trust Com
pany of this city, where he rose TO the
position of trust clerk.
MIR. Andrew Smith has had banking ex-
perience in this city ever since he was a
how of sixteen. For twenty-five years he
was in the employ of the Fletcher-Church-
man Bank, and during sixteen years filled
the position of paying teller.
The rapid growth of the business Of the
American National Bank has necessitated
his increased force and the. promotion OF
these young gentlemen is distinctly upon
the merit system.
