Edward, since his accession to the
throne, has become the guardian of
the children of the Prince and Prin-

children, over whom he has complete
control, the rights Of their parents
being superseded. This was decided
to be law nearly POO years ago, by a
majority of ten to two judges. The

Georges. who had habit of quarrel

of the royal family can marry they
will have to obtain King Edwards s
consent or the marriage is void.
George III. managed to secure this
power by means Of the royal marriage

FOR A NEW CANAL BILL
1t Leaves Choice of Routes to Presi-
dent Roosevelt.

Washington, Jan. 2S-Just before
the adjournment of the senate today,
Senator SpoOner introduced a substi-
tute for the Nicaragua canal bill.
The new bill is practical authori-
zation to the President Of the United
States to choose between the Panama
and the Nicaraguan routes. The first
provision looks to the acquisition of the
franchises, right of way and other
property of the new Panama Canal
Company, France, including that com
pany's control of the Panama rail
road.
The president is authorized to pay
SAC, 900, 600 for these, provided a
satisfactory title can be obtained. {"
He is then authorized to secure the
necessary concessions from the repub-
lie of Colombia, these to include the
perpetual control of ten,mile strip o
territory.from the Caribbean sea to
the Pacific ocean. A canal sufficient
to accommodate the largest vessels is
then TO be constructed under the super
vision of the secretary of war.
The bill also carries an alternative
provision authorizing the president to
proceed with the construction of the
Nicaragua canal in case he fails to
secure the necessary concessions from
Colombia or satisfactory title from
the Panama Canal Company.
An immediate appropriation of
$40, 100000 is made in either event.
The limit of cost is fixed at Sl35, 600, =
600 in case the Panama route is chos-
en-, while Sl60, 600, 600 is allowed in
case the choice falls on the Nicaragua
route

ANOTHER KANSAS SNOW
Heaviest Fall of Season-COvers,Areas
Missed Before.

Topeka, Jan. 2s-Two. days of cold
weather in Kansas werefullowed today
by another heavy snow storm. The
snow commenced in Western Kansas
this forenoon and travelled eastward.
Larned and other places further west
report a heavy fall of snow. In Lar
ned it is six inches deep. In parts of
Greenwood, Lyon, Usage and Frank
lin counties wind accompanies the
snow and makes it drift quite badly.
Dispatches from Lincoln Center and
from Paola say that the wind is blow
ing u gale from the northeast. The
snowfall is heavier at most points
that any previous one this winter and
it covers large areas that previous
snow storms have almost missed. Re-
ports from all sections are to the eff
feet that wheat is in splendid eondi-
tion.

PAYING THE PRICE
The Rat Hole in South Africa has
Claimed Many Victims Among
British TrOODs

London, Jan. 27. Great Britain
really paid the price that Mr.. Kruger
said ''would stagger humanity" The
great disasters Immediately following
the outbreak of hostilities only an
noyed and did not alarm the average
Briton. But as the years have passed
and the casualty list has steadily
mounted, with peace even now in sight
because ofministerial rejection of Boer
overtures, the people are worrying.
When it became known last week
that the olive branch had been proffer-
ed by agepts of the Afrikanders and
rejected by the government, Britons
again began to count the price in life
blood of the empires sons.
They found that 93l officers and
18, 033 men have died in Africa from
different causes, and that 2,664 officers
and 81, ,666 men have been sent home
as invalids.
The London Daily Graphic says:
"We may put down 800 million dol
lars las the total amount which will
haveSbeen paid out by March 81 1902.
Thereafter provision will have to be
made for carrying on operations Wig
orously until the Beers lay down their
arms, and experts affirm that we may
look forward to the expenditure of a
further 300 millions of dollars to gain
the desired end. On that basis the to-
tai cost of the war will approximate
LOO million dollars.
During the past hundred years the
only war in which we were engaged
that ran into hundreds of millions
was the Peninsular war, which during
the years 1894 alone cost us TOO mil
lion dollars. Our fathers footed the
bill then, and we shall foot the bill
now, for, like our grandsires, once we
have taken up the burden, we do not
intend to lay it down until the hard
won goal is reached"
