Lectures and Subscription.

Kansas City, Kan. Jan. s.-Carrie Ma

dence of S n. Simpson, corner of Rey-
nolds and GrandvieW avenues. The deed
was filed with the register of deeds yes
terday- The price paid for the residence
was $500
1t is understood that Mrs. Nation pur-
chased the property with the intention of
converting it into a home for drunkards'
wives She secured the money in the east
BY subscription for that purpose. It was
stated yesterday that she would come here
within the next two weeks and begin ne

Mr.. Simpson viii give. possession in three
months, according to the agreement. The

thousand dollars in having it suitably
equipped for the home It is not known
however, what capacity Mrs. Nations

Streets of Colon Show Effects Of
Severe Storm.

New York. Jan. S.-According to the
Herald's Colon correspondent the storm
which struck that city Tuesday night
was terrific and when it had passed the
streets were strewn with wreckage
The Christopher. Colon and other
steamers that had been snuggly berthed
in their docks were tossed about in the
high sea that soon dashed up in the
bay.
All steamers of large proportions i'm
mediately weighed anchor or left their
wharves and put to sea to escape the
fury of the gale. Sailing craft scudded
across the arbor under bare poles
seeking safety inside the canal It was
an exceedingly difficult and perilous
trial. the shippers of these craft expert
enced, as in the rush for refuge several
collisions We're narrowly averted.
Along the water front the streets were
inundated The wind forced the water
over the wharves and entertainments
and the few pedestrians sought safety
further in the city The reavy down
pour of rain choked the cutters which
We're unable to empty into the sea- be-
cause of the water driven UP by the
wind.

AFTER THE COAL TRUST.
An English Company at Boston Pro
poses to Cut the Prices.

Boston, Jan. S.-Boston is to have a
mammoth coal company which, its pR0
moters say, will smash the coal trust
and supply the public with cheap fuel,
through Boston as the distributing
point. The new company viii be as
powerful as any ever organized It is
backed by the vast wealth and re-
sources of the Rothschilds and has for
its moving spirits Englishmen Of
wealth who promise to break the grip
of the coal trust in the east.
Already the plans are perfected and
the first move has been made. The
name of the concern, the Baltimore &
Boston Barge company. gives little
hint of its real status. But behind it
is the entrance of English capital to
see what English brains can do with
the coal trade. Coal wharves and a
yard in East Boston where the big
fleet Of the company's vessels can be
discharged have been purchased for
S125. 900 of tie John NJ Morris Coal
company and as much more IS to be
spent in improvements. The company
is to embark directly in the carrying

prices asked by the coal trust and once
the duty is removed from Nova Scotia

Garden City to Improve Ditch and
Put in Pumping Plant.


Garden City, Kas, Jan. 8.-About 100
of the friends of Judge Mason assembled
at the Windsor hotel and proceeded to
his residence and presented him a fine
arm chair, as slight token of the es-
TEEN in which he is held by his fellow
citizens among whom he has lived for
the last sixteen years.
The presentation speech was made by
Ed Finnup, who said among other
things, that the chair would be chris
tened after the manner of battleships if
the laws of Kansas We're not in the way.
To say the judge was surprised and
overcome by this testimonial from his
friends would hardly express it, and it
was some time before he could express
his gratitude.
The farmers have bought the Garden
City ditch, and Will put it in first class
condition. 5, The. Industrial club of this
city has raised $4,000 to pit in a pump

Binghamton. N. Y. Jan. Sharon
Abrams, a wealthy resident of Butte,
Mont, has become a firm believer in
visions. Abrams had business in the
east and decided to start for Seneca
Falls N. Y, Friday, December 3. A few
days before the date set for his depar-
ture he had q vision which forbade him
starting on the date set, warning him
he would meet with trouble if he per-
sisted.
He renewed his resolve, however, to
start Friday which he eventually car
ried out. Arriving in Chicago he found
a dispatch awaiting him from South At
rica announcing the death of his broth
er and as he was crossing a street i'll
Cleveland he fell, striking his head
against a car wheel. inficting a scalp
wound that laid him up for three DAYS.
He says that for the first time in ten
years he prayed earnestly last Sunday

Bodies Not Yet Recovered.

Bonner Springs. Kas., Jan S.-The
bodies of the two children. Arthur Enda-
colt and Lottie Lightfoot. who werc
drowned in the Kaw river at this place
Monday afternoon, have not been re-
covered. The little girl broke through
the ice first. Arthur attempted to save
her and broke in. Asbury Endacott, an
older brother of Arthur, also got in the
water in an attempt to help the unfor-
Inmates, but was saved by companions.
The two bodies then went down and
fioated under the thick ice, and although
a diligent effort is being made to re-
cover the bodies, there is little hope Of
success.

COACH QUESTION UNSETTLED
Kansas Athletic Board Seriously Con-
sidering Four Men.

Lawrence Kas. Jan 8.-The athletic
board has received offers from several
the University Of Kansas football team
for next season, but has taken no def
mite action as yet. The offers range
from $3.50 to $500 for the season, and it
is not improbable that next years
coach will receive a larger salary than
Kansas coaches have been paid hereto
fore.
The race for the place is really among
four men-Curus, last seasons coach;
Murphy, the old Missouri coach; Weeks,
captain of Michigan last season, and
Cochems. WiscOnsin,s star half back in
1901 who coached the North Dakota
Agricultural college team at Fargo this
last season.
Manager Foster personally favors
Cochems He is known to be a great
half and had great success at Fargo
last season. His team scored 3l5 points
against by the opposing team.
COchems has the advantage of success
full experience over Weeks. and his sys-
tenn would be a. continuation of the Wis
consin style introduced by Curtis last
season.
Curtis has many admirers among stu
dents and players and the only COM
plant raised against him is that he is
too unsociable. No one doubts his abili-
ty to coach a team.
Weeks is also a favorite with many.
lie is pupil of YOSt, who is extremely
popular here, and there is a tendency
to think that Weeks must be almost
perfection, but he has had no experience
as a coach and his first attempt might
easily prove a failure.
The board accepted the offer of R e.
Mulligan to coach the track team this
spring. Muligan was formerly on the
Georgetown track team where he did
especially well in track athletics His
home is now in Ninneap polls, Kas. and
he has offered to coach the team for his
expenses.
