THE KANSAS CREAMERIES.
More Prosperous Than They Have Been
for Fifteen Years.

1.-The farmers of Kansas are making a
good thing out of the raising of mich cows
and the production of milk. The creamery
industry of the state Is In more pros
porous condition than 1t has been for the
past fifteen years. said Mr.. George w.
Douglass of Kansas City to a Star man
at the Raleigh. The prices recently paid
the producer have been higher recently than
they have ever been before in the history
of the industry, and the farmers are buy
Ing more cows and adding to their output.
The abundance of feed has made the cost of
keeping stock low and the profits are Civ
ing the farmers an excellent return for their
investment.
THE extent of the business among the
farming community is not understood by
the outside states. In Kansas, for instance,
the pay rool Of one creamery company alone
that l can recall for the month of January
will amount to nearly $4,000. all of which
went TO the farmers. This is about the aver
age for the year. making from this one COM
pany a distribution of nearly 100000 in the
year AS the farmers sons and daughters
do most of the work the profits are almost
clear mo-ey to him. Most of the creamery
money is being used to pay off mortgages
and build additions to the farmers homes,
adding to the evident prosperity that 1t has
helped to bring"

JUDGE BRoWNING's DEATH.
Was Commissioner Of Indian Affairs
From 1893 to 1897.

Word has been received in this city of the
death of Judge D. NJ Browning, ex-com-
missioner Of Indian affairs, at East st.
Louis No, Saturday night. Judge Brown
ing was fifty-seven years of age and served
al commissioner of Indian affairs under
President Cleveland from 1893 to 1897. Dur
sng his incumbency of the office Judge
Browning made some radical changes in
the conduct of the affairs Of his bureau
one of the most important being the order
designating army officers to act as lndian
agents whenever the change from civilians
could be effected. He also made many
changes in the conduct of the Indian
schools resembling the order compelling the
attendance of Indian children at the
schools and thereby increasing the attend
ance.
In the matter of the appointment OF
teachers for the schools. however, Judge
browning and President Roosevelt, at that
time president of the board of civil service
commissioners. had a controversy. Mr..
Roosevelt charged that Commissioner
Browning had violated the law by the re-
duction of teachers. who were CLASSIFIED, to
the position of assistant teachers, who were
not classified. The matter came before
Secretary Hoke Smith of the Department
OF the Interior, and after investigation he
ordered that the assistant teachers be
placed under the classified service. Since
retiring from the Office of Indian commits
sioner Judge Browning had practiced law
at his home, East ST. Louis, Mo.

FAVORABLE REPORT.
Col. Biddle Recommends Granting of
Permit to Telephone Company.

Permit to Telephone Company.
The question as to the granting of per-
mission to the Potomac Electric Power
Company to construct a one-way conduit
along the north side of street from 18th
to 10th streets, for the purpose Of making
house connections to a row Of seventeen
dwellings recently erected there. has been
under consideration by the Commissioners
for some time past, and Col. Biddle, the
Engineer Commissioner. has reported in
favor Of the company.
The point raised was as to whether the
building of conduit along the entire
square constituted an extension Of the con-
duit system, which is contrary to existing
law, or whether 1t was merely in the nature
of house connections, which the Commits
sioners have authority to grant. The cleo
trio company, however, has a conduit on
the south side of the entire square.
They would be permitted to make sep
arate connection to each house from this
south side conduit, which would involve
the digging of seventeen trenches entirely
across street. Instead Of this the COM
pany desired to make but one cut across the
street and then construct a one-way duct
in front of the row of houses and make the
connections in the parkings.
The permit was at first denied, but Col.
Biddle today informed the Commissioners
that after reconsideration of the case
and discussion of it with the corporation
counsel, he is of the opinion that the per-
NIT asked for Is in the nature Of house
connection and can be granted as such.
1t will be to the advantage of the District
to save the cutting Of SO many trenches
across the street,

Effort to Settle Differences Fails.

Mr. William L. Boyden Of this city has
been in attendance at the meeting Of the
arbitrator of the warning factions OF the
Junior Order Of United American Mechan-
les, which was held in Philadelphia last
week. It is stated that the differences be-

that there is little hope for a compromise
on the matter.
The strength of the entire organizatio is
estimated at 10000, Of which 10000. it is
thought, are insurgents. Maryland has a
membership Of about 10000. The final
breach between the two factions occurred
two years ago, after eight long years OF
dissension. The main strength of the in
surgents is in the states of Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, New York, Virginia and Dis
