Two Colleges to Merge.

The directors of the Campbell uni
versity at Holton have voted to ac-

Gated at Lecompton, will be moved to
Holton at the beginning of the next

Sues Sheriff for Damages.

Bert Carroll has filed damage suit
for $4,000 against S. p. Costigan,
sheriff of Franklin county. Carroll's
home is at Lecompton. He was ar
rested twice last September, charged
with stealing horse from Princeton.
The last arrest was made at Bunker
Hill, and Carroll was placed in Jail
at Salina, where he was put in cell
where a prisoner had committed sui
eide. He was "kangarooed" and sub-
jected to such treatment that his
health was impaired, it is alleged.
Carroll charges that Sheriff Costigan
made the complaints for the purpose
of collecting fees from the state.
The case will probably go to trial in
January.

For Dairy Study.

The dairy school at the state agri-
cultural college at Manhattan will
open January 6 and will continue to
March 81. Kansas, it is claimed, has
one of the best equipped dairy schools
in the United States. In the past
year $4,000 has been expended for
IN agricultural building, $4,000 for
dairy apparatus, and $4,000 for rep
resentative dairy herd. A 10O-ton silo
has been built for the storage of feed
for the herd, and the dairy barn has
been fitted with the latest pattern
Drown stall and all modern conven-
fences. The idea of the dairy school
is to instruct the farmer how to
make dairying more profitable bust
ness. Kansas cows have been chiefly
bred for beef. Secretary F. ID. Co.
burn, of the state board of agricul-
ture, reports the average yearly
value of the product of the Kansas
dairy cow to be $9.65. Several cream
cries report that the average re-
ceipts per cow for their patrons
is $50. The agricultural college
secured, in 1898, an average per cow
of $37.75 for butter fat, at creamery
prices, from n scrub herd that in
quality were much below the aver
age cows of the state; and one scrub
cow, for which was paid $50, returned
$60ss for butter fat, and gave a net
profit above cost of feed of $40.37.

The Revue Hebdomadaire describes
rare bird among publishers, Albert
SaTine, who in seven years spent $780,
900 in producing works by Ibsen, Born

for which, at the time, there was little
demand IN France. For more than two
years he paid $50 month to a French
author who is now famous, but whose
books did not then yield 500 year.
