The Best Kansas News.
sa1linr UNDER False Coior..

Several years ago DIR. E. C. Engei
went to Hewins, opened drug store
and commenced the practice of medi-
cine. He prospered exceedingly and
got together a lot of property. Last
week suit was commenced against
him in the district court. The plain
tiff is a woman who sets up that the
doctors right name is Peyatt, not
Enger. Her home is in Illinois, and
she declares herself the divorced wife
of the doctor. She was awarded ali
mony to the amount of 5000 a year,
which has not been paid for several
years, and the suit is to collect this
money. In the meantime, the doctor
had left the country with woman
whom he had introduced as his wife,
and it is found that the property had
been turned into cash.

Is 1t a MfIlers' Trust.

Complaint has been made that the
millers of Kansas are forming a trust
of the old-fashioned kind; a trust
where different concerns engaged in
the same class of business form a
POOL on prices instead of merging into
e.T> big corporation. 1t is claimed
the object of the millers' trust is to
control the price to be paid for grain
and the price to be demanded for
flour and other finished products.
The grain dealers already have trust
to beat down the price of grain with
the farmers. The millers will not only
try to beat down the price with the
farmers, but also with the grain
trust, from whom the millers buy
much grain.
