Stephen Cranes Iurid Inspiration.
Philadelphia Record

Three young men, devotees of Stephen
Crane, sat in a cafe and talked of Crane
the other night. One of them. though
only % years old. has just had accepted
by a good publishing house a $4,000
word novel. i was introduced to Crane
on a winter night, in the back room of
a little German saloon in New York
he said He was smoking cigarettes,
drinking beer and talking Such talk.
Was it literary, beautiful? No: it was
the most weird outpouring of oaths and
slang L have ever heard, and it was
all about fieshy rather than spiritual
things. Yet, somehow, it was interest
ing talk. ] know it held me there in
that back room till 8 O'Clock in the
morning. Crane by that time had an
army of some thirty or forty cigarette
ends arrayed upright on the table be-
fore him in neat squares, stars and
circles-a habit of his. II went home
with him. He slept four hours, took a
cold bath. and sat down to work. He
wrote, while 1 looked enviously on, that
chapter in Georges Mother which de-
scribes the beer and whisky party one
of the characters gave in his bedroom
that party at which George got drunk.
1t is one of Cranes best chapters. and
he told me that morning that he al
ways wrote his best the day after he
had been drinking excessively. He said
his nerves seemed then to be keyed up,
his mind keen and clear and his imagi-
nation unusually powerful. But When
he felt well, he said, and in the best
physical condition, he dld not care rc,
write, but to go out, drink, smoke, and
have a good time

NEW LAW
Board of Registration Estab-
lished in Kansas
A License from it is Neces-
sary to Practice Medicine
in the State
THE SCIENTISTS ARE EXEMPT
Law does not Interfere with
Religious Belief
The OsteOpathy Doctors will
be Required to Register
as Such

Topeka, March 7-Governor Stanley
announced today that he would take
his time in selecting members of the
new board of medical registration
created by a recent act of the legisla-
ture. This law is of vast interest to
the members of the medical profession
and the secretary of state is in receipt
of a score or more of letters daily in
quiring about its provisions. 1t pro-
vides for board of seven members
to be appointed by the governor. All
persons now engaged in the practice
of medicine in Kansas must within
four months appeal to the board for
licenses to practice. If a graduate of
some college, the physician must pro-
duce his diploma. If practitioner,
but not graduate Of any recognized
medical college, he must file an afii-
davit showing how long he has
practiced. If he has practiced over
seven years then a certificate emitting
him to practice will be given him,
which certificate must be recorded with
the county clerk of the county in
which he resides. If engaged in
practice for period less than seven
years without a diploma from some
school, the applicant must take an
examination. The board may refuse
to grant certificate to any person
guilty of felony, gross immortality
or addicted to the use of liquor. The
examination shall be not to exceed $40
and the county clerk is allowed 81 for
recording the certificate.
Anyone who uses Doctor" ''M.
D." or "Dr." in connection with his
name is deemed physician within the
meaning of this act, and must procure
a certificate. Osteopathy doctors must
be registered as such, This act is
''not to be construed as interfering
with any religious beliefs in the treat
met of disease" This lets in the
Christian Scientists.
From and after September /, 1901,
any person who shall practice medi'
cine or surgery or osteopathy in Kan
sas without having received and had
recorded certificate under the pro-
visions of this act "shall be deemed
guilty of misdemeanor and be sub.
ject to a fine of not less than $50 nor
more than 5000 for each otfense. " Any
person who swears falsely to secure q
certificate can be punished forperjury.

of Editor Rice of the Manila Daily
Bulletin to the United States for the

In stating the immediate cause for
Rice's deportation the order says:
Investigation Having been made
and the complete falsity of the charges
made apparent, and the result com.
municated to Rice, he replied in a de-
faint manner that>he would reiterate
these charges when and where he saw
fit. He is therefore regarded as a
dangerous incendiary, and menace
to the military situation and will there
fore be deported as above ordered.

B0THA AND KITCHENER.
A Seven Days Armistice Granted TO
the BOer.

Lorenzo Marques, March 8.-Gen-

Botha a seven days. armistice to en-
able him to confer with the other
generals.
A dispatch from Pretoria, dated
Tuesday, March 5, evidently held up
by the censor, has just reached here.
1t says General Kitchener met General
Botha and other Boer leaders at Mid
dleburg, February 81, when the ques-
tion of the possibility of the termina-
tion of hostilities was discussed,
According to the London Sun, the
surrender of General Botha would
have been an accomplished fact before
now, had General Kitchener been in a
position to conclude the terms OF sur.
render. When the surrender occurs,
the London Sun adds, it, will include
the surrender or entire suppression of
General DeWet and will involve the
elimination of the war.

UNJUST KANSAS CLAIM
Governor Refused to Sign Miscella-
neous Appropriation Bill

Topeka, March 7.-Governor Stan
ley refuses to sign the miscellaneous
appropriation bill, but he will not
veto it, and it will become a law to-
morrow without his signature, by the
expiration of the constitutional three
days.
81 can't veto the BILL" he said to-
day, "for it contains many meritor-
ious claims, but it also is so full of
unjust items that l can't conscien'
tiously sign it. so l will let it be
come a law without my signature.
Why, the bill allows alleged claims
that are so ancient that they would be
outlawed, even if they were originally
just, by any court of justice"
The effect of the governors refusal
to sign the bill will be to postpone
publication week, and the benefic'
iaries of the bill will be kept out Of
their money that long.

ALIEN LAW REPEALED
Anyone can Own Kansas Land all
Right Now.

Topeka, March 9.-Kansas no long
er has an alien land law. Governor
Stanley yesterday attached his sig
nature to a bill wipingit off the statues.
After this, aliens can enjoy the same
privileges as to holding property that
citizens of the state enjoy. There will
be no distinctions.
The alien land law was passed to
catch one man-Lord Schully, of Eng
land-and it didn't catch him. He was
too clever to be caught by an ordin-
airy Kansas Legislature. But the law
did one thing. 1t kept capital out of
the State.
The alien land law has hindered
some of the big packing corporations
in Kansas City, Kansas, from expand
ing as much as they were anxious to
do. A considerable per cent of their
stock is held in foreign countries and
they were afraid if it ever came to a
show down they would be pronounced
alien corporations. Onthe other hand
they did some quiet work in favor ofthe
passage of the repeating act. No one
arose on the floor of either house to
oppose the repeal of the old law and
the repeating act went through "as
slick as grease" Kansas lands can
now be held by anybody-providing
he has the money to buy them.
