M,n,star a Siamese minister
permanently sta

envoy to the British court from Siam

United States, but now the land of the

title is "His Excellency Phya Akharaj-
varadhara," but his actual name is not
divulged, as Siamese customs forbid
the general use of nobleman's name.
His immediate family may handle 1t
with impunity, but the outside world
is supposed to be content with refer

The Best Kansas News.
Wouldn't Give Them I'm.

Gov. Stanley pondered several DAYS
over a requisition he received from
the governor of Missouri. Last De-
cember M. Castleberry, o. Household
er and A. Turney, respectable citi-
Gems of Crawford county, pursued a
thief over into Missouri, and arrest
ed him at Webb City. They had NO
requisitiOn for the man, and it is
charged that they forcibly compelled
him to return with them to Kansas.
committing what is known under the
law as the crime of kidnapping. When
the thief was placed on trial he was
found guilty and sentenced to the
penitentiary. In the meantime, how
ever, the Missouri authorities got
out warrants for the three Kansas
men and caused their arrest and then
applied to Gov. Stanley with a requi-
Sltion from the governor of Missouri
Tor permission to remove them. 1t
was not denied that technically they
are guilty, but Gov. Stanley asked
himself whether in common Justice
three good citizens of Kansas should
be turned over for punishment when
their crime was really a service in
the cause of law enforcement. He
refused the observation-disclosures CITY

Miniature Volcano.

"A miniature volcano has been

years ago there was an EXPLOSION
ON the Winkler farm When the
cause was investigated it was found
that piece of ground 40 feet square
and two feet deep had been thrown
up. Several hogs feeding near by
were buried in the earth and had to
be dug out. A spring of water was
running from the excavation where
no spring had before appeared. At
times the water from the spring is

Don't Agree with Bailey.

Recently the farmers of Kansas
were warned by w. j. Bailey, of Ne
mana county, against using for seed
the corn grown in Kansas last season.
Mr.. Bailey said that he had raised
1000 bushels of corn, but that the
tassel on all the stalks in his fields
had been killed by dry weather, and
that experiments made by himself
showed that corn from this kind of
stalks would not grow. But now
comes Prof. Popenoe, of the state ag-
r1cultural college, who says that Bal
ley is mistaken; that if the tassels on
his corn had really been destroyed,
the fields would have produced no
corn at all. The kernels cannot set"
until pollen from the tassels reaches
the silk which leads to them.

of eastern bondholders against

An Agreeable Surprise.

Bank Commissioner Albaugh says
the latest reports from Kansas state
banks show a decrease of deposits
of $1,0oO,0Oo over the report three
months ago. This, he thinks, is a
phenomenal statement. He expected
the reports to show big falling off
in deposits on account of the farmers
having to buy feed for their stock
this winter.
