GIVES OSBORNE
HOUSE TO NATION
King Presents His People With
Famous Royal Mansion.
VlcT0RIA'S fAVoRITE HOME
PUBLIC SHALL ALWAYS HAVE
ACCESS TO THE HOUSE.

7 ONION, Aug. 1o.-King Edward
has signalized his coronation in
memorable manner by the
munihcent gift TO the nation of Os-
borne House. one of the favorite res
licences of the late Queen Victoria. The
gltt rs made in the following MESA &c
TO his people, addressed to Prime Min
lister Balfour. For reasons, apparent
IN the document itself. his majesty
makes his intention public:
Buckingham Palace. Coronation
Day. l902.-Under the Will of the kings
much beloved mother. the Osborne
House estate is, as Mr.. BsIfour is
aware, the private estate of the SOW
ereign.
Having to spend a considerable part
OF the year in the capital of this king
dom and in its neighborhood. at Wind
sor, and having also strong home ties
in the county of Norfolk. which have
existed now for nearly forty years,
the king feels he was unable to make
adequate use of Osborne House as
royal residence and he accordingly has
determined to offer the property to
the Isle of Wight as a gift to the ma
ton.
AS Osborne House is sacred to the
memory of the late queen. il is the
kings wish that. with the exception
OF those apartments which were in the
personal occupation of her majesty, his
people shall always have access 80
the house, which must ever be asso-
ciated with her beloved name.
As regards the rest of the building
the king hopes it may be devoted TO
national purposes and converted into
a convalescent home for officers of the
navy and army whose health has been
impaired in rendering service to their
country.
IF in order to give a full legal effect
TO the kings wishes. it is found that
application to parliament be necessary,
| the king trusts that Mr.. Balfour Will
see that the necessary steps are in
due course taken

Thinks Indians Not Getting Enough
for Lands.

Farmers and others who want to bid
on Pottawatomie and KickaDoo lands
which become saIable under the act of
congress passed last summer will have

the fact that practically all of the land
was contracted for within a few days
after the law was passed. The secretary
of the interior has been looking into the
contracts, and has decided that tie In
dams are not getting full value for their
lands. AS a result the interior depart

ties who wish to purchase the land.
BY the law passed by congress last
summer heirs of Indians who receive
allotnents and have since died are given
permission to sell their land subject to
the approval of the secretary of the in
terror. The law was passed one Fri
day and by Monday contracts had beer
made with the heirs to practically all
the property involved by parties who had
been looking after the matter. for the

amount far below its actual value
About twenty-five tracts of Pottawa~
tonne land in Jackson county were in

land in DoniDhan county
When tie farmers around found the
lands were authorized to be sold they
tried to buy them, but found that they

Stories of Topeka Hotels in En- ~

Twenty-Five years ago Monday Hanlxla
brothers leased the Fifth Avenue hotel
from a Vermont banker. At that time
the old left house. located on the cor

acters who visited Kansas The Fifth
Avenue. the same building which stands
today, was a popular hosiery among
tourists and commercial men. Then it
was the custom of people passing
through to California and the Pacific
coast to stop off at Topeka for a rest
of a few days. At that time the Fifth
Avenue stood up on a hill above every
thing else surrounding it, and its proml-
nence gave it added prestige among the
people who paused in their journey
across the continent for a little breath.

In the left house took place much
of the important political scheming or
the early days of the state-the defeat
of S. c. Pomeroy and the ingalls, fight
were the more prominent. At the time
of the ingalls, investigation a number
of the prominent national politfcians
came to Kansas. and at that time both
James G. Blaine and John A. Logan,
afterward candidates for president ang
vice president respectively on the Re-
publican ticket, were quartered at the
Fifth Avenue. The left house was dis

Windsor was built Then in 1890 the
