PREMIUM ON CRIMPING.
New Regulation Relating to Sailors
Boarding Houses.

London, Aug. 1S.-The British consul
at Portland, Ore, James Laidlaw, en-
phasizing in his annual report the in
crease in the number of assertions from
British ships in ports within his juris-
diction complains that the owners and
captains make no stand against the
''crimps" and rarely show a disposition
to assist the local authorities in pros
ecuting persons guilty of infractions of
the law. and, he adds. in absence of
proper evidence little is done.
Mr.. L.aidlaw then criticises the law,
recently passed licensing sailors board
ing houses, saying:
THE clause raising the legal rate for
furnishing seamen from 10 to 80 dol
lars is very Objectionable. 1t acts as a
premium on crimping. Strange as it
may SEEM the most notorious crimping

SAYS BREWER Is WRONG.
Clay Center Physician Says Law Is
Not Understood.

Clay Center. Kas., Aug. Is. 1903.
To the Editor of the State Journal:
In Saturdays issue of the State Jour
nal 1 notice that one D. L. Brewer
makes some very erroneous and mis-
leading statements regarding the med
ical laws of Kansas. and l would here
by suggest to the gentleman that he
inform himself more correctly before
making more statements along that
line
He said that the legislature passed a
law two years ago making it a punish
able offense for man to cure collie in
his own family without the advice of a
physician qualified by law and reg
istered also that the legislature last
winter passed a law cutting out the
Osteonaths
Both of these statements are entirely
false. not through any probable inten-
ton on the part of the correspondent to
make a false statement. but through
ignorance of the law governing the
practice of medicine, surgery and osteo-
pathy in Kansas. No one is debarred
by the law from giving medicine to the
members of his own family, and as to
osteopaths, they were not only not cut
out, but they enjoy more privileges to-
day than do medical practitioners. for
by the provisions of the law they are
admitted to practice on their diplomas
without examination. while medical
men are required to pass a rigid exam

STARR is ADDED.
Scott County Representative May Go
to Irrigation Congress.

Governor Bailey has added the name
of Representative j. c. Starr of Scott
county to the list of delegates to the
National Irrigation congress which will
meet at Ogden, Utah, on September 15
Mr.. Starr is a believer in the storage
and pump plan of irrigation for the
western plains. Several months ago in
an interview in the State Journal he adj
vocated the idea of several farmers COM
bining in the purchase of a large gaso-
line engine to pump water for small
reservoirs on each farm. He also ad-
yocates the building of large reservoirs
for the storage of food waters by the
government, which would keep the IN
derfiow supplied in addition to furnish
direct irrigation for irrigation in the
valleys below the reservoirs.
Mr.. Starr will go to OGDEN aud advo-
cate the flood storage idea in the irri-
cation congress.

noon, asking Governor Bailey to pardon

years from Sedgwick county for chicken
stealing. Mr.. Adams claims that the

A funny thing about this is that Adj

LOVE, COURTSHIP
AND MARRIAGE
George Petsche, of Dexter, Has
Made a Record Breaking
Matrimonial Leap.
HE FINDS A WIFE AND
MARRIES AT SIGHT
6. Bruderli instrumental in
Successfully Engineering
The Affair.


George Petsche. a farmer from the
town of Dexter, came to the city
yesterday in search Of house-keeper.
He was a widower and has two small
children. Not succeeding in his
mission, he went to see G.. Bruderli,
the shoe merchant, and told him his
troubles. Mr.. Bruderli informed the
farmer that the best thing to do was
not to bother with house-keeper,
but rather look for wife. This pre-
position puzzled Mr.. Petsche, but Mr..
Bruderli came at once to his relief
The suggestion was made at 10 o'clock.
At IL O'Clock, the same forenoon,
Mr.. Bruderli had found a widow, Mrs.
Eliza Butter, likewise possessing two
children, who desired improved cir
cumStanceS. The two were presented
to each other and at once agreed to
join issues and be happy. 1t is SAID
to have been love at first sight.
They visited the court house and
County Clerk Renne issued license,
Judge Conway issued a permit for
immediate marriage and Justice L. j.
Cooper married them the same even
ing at O'Clock. George N. Wood and
Guy Waldo were interesting witnesses
at the ceremonies.
City and county officials say that
the match is a record breaker. Think
of it! The farmer comes to town at
s O'Clock; seeks marriage broker at
10 o'clock; meets the fair lady at II
O'Clock: gets his license at 2 o'clock:
his permit to marry at O'Clock; is
| welded at O'Clock; goes on his honey
moon at SOB O'Clock.
Certainly maidens of advanced years
might profit by the example of this
business transaction.

LOST HER LIFE
in WELL AT RUDOLPH
Daughter OF John Schneider Playing About
Well. Lost Balance.

The two-year-old daughter of John
Schneider, of Rudolph, fell into we'll
Saturday evening and was drowned.
The girl had been playing in the
vicinity of the well during part of the
afternoon with some other children.
Her playmates left about four o'clock
and the little girl walked toward the
well. No attention was paid to this
as she was always allowed to go about
the yard. About six o'clock the
parents became anxious and went in
search of the girl AS she could not
be found. neighbors were called to
assist. 1t was not long before the
grueSome discovery was made that
she was lying dead at the bottom of
the we'll.
1t is believed that she had been
throwing stones into the well and, in
looking over the edge, lost her balance
and fell in.
