to take the ground that if it permitted

Sale of Property Enioined.

Samuel Ndaher, receiver OF the insolv-
emit Kansas City Safe Depository and
Savings bank, began a suit in the
United States circuit court here today
for an injunction against the county
commissioners and the county officers
Of Wyandotte county to prevent them
from selling about 200 lots in Brighton,
an addition to Kansas City, Kas., for
back taxes. The taxes 1t seems have
not been paid for several years. but the
fact that at present there is no income
from them is given as a reason for the
nonpayment of the dues. It is set forth
that the real value of the property is
about $4,000, and is therefore surety
enough to justify the county in delay
ing the paYment Of the taxes.

WAS A BOER SURGEON.
I. A. Aderhold, Ex-JOurnaI
Carrier, Back From Africa.

Thomas A. Aderhold. a graduate Of
Washburn college in the class of 1896,
and for a long time the owner of one
Of the best Kansas avenue carrier
routes of the State Journal. was in To-
pelSa today on his way home to Valley
Falls from South Africa where for
nearly two years he has been serving
as a surgeon in the Boer army.
Asked as to his opinion in regard to
the present status of the Boer war. Mr.
Aderhold said:
Il firmly believe that the Beers will
WIN. Ihey VIII never surrender. Ihae
much Is certain. ALI stories of peace
negotiations without independence for
the Beers as a basis must be set down
as false. The Boer army numbers be-
tween fifteen and twenty thousand men,
The British have 100000 If the British
take a single man away from South
AFRICA they are tied hand and foot
They can not conduct any offensive
operations with less than their present
force"
Mr.. Aderhold was captured by the
British on April l. at the town OF
Mushroom. The British took every
living thing in the town and moved the
whole outfit TO Pretoria Mr.. Aderhold
had certificates, m edica1 diplomas and
papers to prove that he was IN the Red
Cross service, but the British would not
believe him or mis- papers. They We're
very bitter against me-" said Mr.. Alder
hold, because came to South Africa
with the Irish-American hospital corps.
They tried to prove that I had been
fighting for the Beers. but could not do
it. The American consul finally Sc
cured my release. The British wanted
to transport me to Ceylon as a prisoner
of war;
Mr. Aderhold says that while in
South Africa he was present at two
battles, at WaTmbad and Pienaar's
river. Most of the time, however, he
was attached to the larger hospitals,
located in the towns at some distance
from the battlefields.
Mr.. AderhOld speaks very highly OF
the Beers, and says that their fight for
independence is almost identical with
the fight which was Waged by the
American colonies in 1875. He says
that Paul Kruger is honest, and has the
love and respect of all the Beers. Mr..
Aderhold has personally talked to the
president of the Boer republic.
He is man of few words" said Mr..
Aderhold. speaking of Kruger. but he
speaks with that emphasis which
makes one understand that he means
exactly what he says. He is very
shrewd and able. His health is poor,
time. His death would not in the least
make the hopes of the Beers fall Kru-
ger is technically absent on leave of
absence. His cabinet m eets every lit
tie while and extends his leave"
Mr.. AderhOld says that he will re-
turn to Topeka in about month. He
enjoys life in South Africa and will
return there after the war to practice
medicine. He has already formed a
partnership with a doctor in South
Africa for this purpose.

THE ICE TRUST
Kansas City, KS, Council Stops
Short Weights From Wagons.

Kansas City, Kan, Aug. THE ice
trust and the men who deliver its pro-
duct We're given a blow in the solar
plexus by the council last night, when
ten of the eleven aldermen present
voted for the passage of an ordinance
making it compulsory on the part of
icemen to weigh every chunk of ice
sold by them at the time of delivery.
This will make it possible for a man to
receive fifty pounds when he pays for
this amount, instead of thirty, as has
frequently been the case in the past.
The ordinance, which was fathered by
Alderman McF'adden, fixes a penalty of
from SO to 500 for every violation.
Hereafter the driver of every ice wagon
who fails to first weight ice before de-
livering it is guilty of a misdemeanor,
and is liable to arrest and fine in police
court Any police officer who witnesses
a violation of the ordinance will be re-
quired to cause the immediate arrest of
the offender.
There has been an unlimited number
of complaints made this summer by
citizens over the short weight given
them in ice When people complained
to the men who deliver ice, demanding
full weight, many of them were boy
cotted" and during the hottest weather
last month were compelled to do with
out it. The Independent manner in
which some of the ice men have acted
has thoroughly aroused the people of
this citY
