WANT BETTER ROADS.
The State Grange Favors Tennessee
Representatives Bill.

Arkansas City, Kas., Dec, 10.-The
state Grange held a business session of
it's annual meeting here, and in the
afternoon the delegates were taken out
TO the Chilocco Indian school. where
they were shown over the institution
by Supt. F. NJ. MCGOWAN.
The resolutions adopted treat with
several important questions. One of
these is the Improvement of the roads.
the expense of which. under the pres
ent system. falls entirely upon the
farmers. 1t was decided to request the
Kansas senators and representatives to
work and vote for the recent bill of
Waiter P. Brownlow, of Tennessee.
which provides for system of ma
tiOnal. state and local co-operation in
the permanent improvement of public
highways. The bill provides for a 20
million dollar appropriation. The
United States is to pay one-half of the
cost of improving any public highway
when requested in cooperation with
any state or civil subdivision.
It was also resolved that the Iegis-
lature of Kansas should provide
thorough, safe and suitable arrange
ments for the employment of convicts
in state prisons or county iails in pre-
pairing material for or building i'm
proved or permanent roads and streets,
thus not competing with free labor,
but opening new Improvements for it.
The session will close tonight

Nance O'Neil Has Trouble With a
Chicago Manager.

Chicago, Dec. 10.-All the properties and
costumes of Nance O'Neil, the San Fran
cisco actress, and Mckee Rankin, were
attached today by William S. Cleveland,
manager of the Cleveland theater, where
for the last month Miss O'Nen and Ran
kin have been filling an engagement.
Affidavit was made by Cleveland that
the actress and Rankin were, in his be-
lief, about to conceal or dispose of their
property, leave the state and defraud
him of several hundred dollars advance
expenses Cleveland further alleged that
the two jointly and severally had vio-
lated their contracts to play out the sea-
son because their expenses were greater
than their salaries. Answers were filed
in which Miss O'Neil averred that she
had entered into no contract and Mckee
Rankin alleged that Cleveland owed him
more money than the advance expenses
amounted to.
The case was called at once. but after
the testimony of Mr.. Cleveland had been
heard was continued until tomorrow

Cattle Are Slow and Prices

Hogs Are About Ten Cents
Above Yesterday.

Chicago, Dec. 1O-WHEAT-The
sentiment in the wheat pit was inclined
to favor the bear side of, the market
today. Gables were lower and there
was some selling by small holders and
the buying was largely by a prominent
commission house. May was nc lower
to 1sc higher at the start, opening at
sic to 81asc, and after selling at S1ss a
size, the price steadied around S1Hc.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re-
port receipts of 645 cars against 63S
cars a year ago.
A severe decline in the December de-
livery carried the May option Gown to

was regained, May closing ss@12c low
er, at soy @S0Hc-
CORN-There was little corn for sale
and traders had to bid the price up
before they could get enough to fill or
ders. The bidding was principally by
shorts. Continued small receipts and
steady cables helped to create a bullish
er at 427sc to 43c and quickly advanced
to 43A@43ssc under good demand.
Receipts 1872 cars.
The close was strong with May M
sc higher at 4S@431sc.
OATS-The sentiment in the oats pit
was strong in spite of a light trade.
Small receipts and q fair cash demand
were partly responsible for the firm
ness. May opened unchanged to &c
higher at 361sc to S61zc and sold up
later to $3.50. Receipts 1877 cars.
Professionalism were firm.
Influenced by the strong hog market.
The buying was scattered but offerings

more names on the list for considera-
ton and election at the next meeting.
The literary work of the club will for
the present consist of the writing and
discussion of stories sketches and

tainnlents to its friends and probably
hold an annual banquet. 1t win also

literary lights who may visit our city
in the capacity of lecturers and read

They made your membership for life.
And all our thirty members
With hearty impulse join with me
In wishing that you yet may see.
A hundred more Defenders,

No longer clips your starzas
You'll take the scepter and the crown
And hurry home and settle down

NOBODY HURT
In Battle Between Guards and strik
ers Near Tobasco.


Trinidad. Colo. Dec 10.-WhiIe a
number of deputies and clerks were
driving from Berwind to Tobasco yes
terday afternoon they were fired upon
by several men hid behind rock and
brush. The deputies and clerks jumped
from the wagon and returned the fire.
The shooting continued at intervals for
thirty minutes though no one was in
jured. Sheriff Clark and posse were
preparing to leave for the scene on a
special train when word was received
that reiHforcements of guards had ar
rived from Tobasco. half mile away.
and the ambush party had fed.
No arrests We're made. The trouble
is said to have originated when a
miner came into the mine office at Ber-
wind and became very abusive. He
was kicked out by a deputy. and it is
thought that he stirred up his friends
to start the difficulty.
The double funeral of Velano and
Bandi. the miners killed by guards in
the battle at Segundo Monday night

Ole church today. under the auspices
of the miners union. This being the
first bloodshed since the strike began.

the title, "Stratigraphy and Falcon
tology of the Upper Carboniferous Rocks
of the Kansas Section" The .'geoIogist
in charge of geology introduces the
report with this illuminating letter OF
transmittal:
Sir: I have the honor to transmit
herewith for publication a manuscript
on stratigraphy and paleontology of
the Upper Carboniferous rocks of the
Kansas. section, by George T. Adams,
George H. Girty and David White. The
stratigraphic portion of the paper is by
Mr.. Adams, the invertebrate paleontol-
ogy by DR.. Girty, and the paleobotany
by Mr.. White. 1t is an attempt to
summarize the available information
concerning the section of the Carboni-
ferrous in Kansas, and its chief value
lies in the fact that it clears up the
synonyny of the stratigraphy and pre-
sents extensive faunal lists and such
data as are available concerning the
flora.
The report is intensely interesting
and exciting, and copies may be OBJ
tanned by making application to the
Kansas members of congress.
A recent consular report from Mr..
Roosevelt, the United States consul at
Brussels. Belgium. makes an excellent
comparative showing for Kansas wheat
