KANSAS NEWS.
Chanute White and Negro Pu-
pills Separate.
After Deliberate Discussion
This Action Taken.
BEST INTERESTS OF ALL
Better Discipline, 1t Is Thought,
Can Be Maintained.
Ordered That Suitable Build
ings Be Provided.

Chanute, Kan, July 29.-At the last
meeting of the board of education the
matter of separating the white and col
Ored pupils was brought up and evoked
much discussion from the members
present. Nearly all were of the opinion
that the best interests of the schools
would be served by such a division and
the following resolution was adopted
unanimously:
I'VE, the board of education, having
thoroughly investigated the matter, find
It to be to the best interest of all con-
cerned to establish separate schools for
the white and colored children of the
school district, including the eighth
grade and below that grade and to re-
quire them to attend the schools 50
established in order that better dis
cipline may be maintained and better
accommodations furnished and for the
best interest of all concerned; therefore,
be it
Resolved That we instruct and do
hereby empower the buildings and
ground committee to Mt up and furnish
suitable and separate rooms for white
and colored pupils. All rooms so pre-
pared 20 be fitted up with like accom-
modations so far as practicable and that
all colOred children be required to at
tend the school prepared for them and
that all white children be required To
attend the school prepared for them and
that the committee on teachers and sal
aries be and hereby is instructed to pro-
cure suitable teachers for the schools so
established and report at the next regu-
lar meeting of this board"

Eastern H0rsemen Are Against
McChesney.
Want the Smathers Colt Barred
from Races.
ESPECIALLY SARATOGA
Believed That Hildreth Holds
Part Ownership.
Some of the Colts That Are
After the Futurity.

New York, July 29.-All the trainers
at the Long Island tracks are talking
about the proposed protest of McChes-
ney in any race in the east. especially
the Saratoga handicap. Most of them
think that the complaint will be sus-
tanned by the Jockey club unless E. E.
Smathers, owner OF the colt. shall prove
that Sam Iildreth is not interested in
Big Mac in a financial way.
Several horsemen said that they
thought Hildreth had a 10 per cent. in
terest in the western champion. They
had no reason for such an assertion,
they said. beyond the well known clause
in most trainers contracts which pro-
vides for a share in the winnings. If
Hildreth has a 20 per cent. interest in
MeChesneys winnings he is, horseInen
declare, a partner. As Hildreth is not
in rood standing on the eastern turf
they think that the jockey club Will
sustain the protest and declare Nc
Chesney ineligible in all his eastern en-
gagements.
Smathers is not worrying about the
protest against McChesney. He said
that such an objection against his
horse is ridiculous HildFeth, he stated,
was an emplOye, and not a partner.
The trainer received a salary without
a 10 per cent. interest. If called upon
for a statement by the jockey club he
would gladly furnish it. This will clear
up all doubts in regard to the owner
ship of the colt
Although the F'uturity is more than
a month away trainers are looking
around for the winner of the big event
1t win be worth approximately $4,000
this year, and owners with high class
colts are anxious to find out what the
other fellow is doing" At present the
men who are considered to hold the
winning hands are John T. Madden,
Capt S. S. Brown, August Belmont.
and W. c. Whitney.
Madden is considered to be the man
most likely to win the prize. He has
not one but several 2-year-olds that are
distinctly high class. Two or three of
these youngsters are maidens, one or
two have never appeared in public The
colt that trainers are now sDeculating
on is a brown fellow, and his name is
said to be Abdell. He is by PIaudit-
Nahama. If all the stories told about
him are true then Madden is to be con-
graduated, for he has the Futurity at
his mercy.

STANDS UP FOR KANSAS.
Jennings Echo Answers a Deluded IL
Iinois Man.

We have on our desk a letter from a
man in Illinois asking if we have any
crops out here. In answer We wish to say
TO the gentleman that 1t would take Hi
nois Indiana and Ohio to make a crop
like Kansas has this year, Decatur county
alone having over 200O,0O0 bushels OF wheat
and we have Jos counties. Why. bless
your soul. man, Illinois never saw such
crops. Kansas stands at the head on wheat
and thousands of bushels gone to waste
on account OF scarcity Of hands; 1900 of
your Illinois unemployed men can now find
work ia Kansas at good wages. Corn, too,
Is immense. in fact it is simply out Of
sight. And you eastern fellows should see
our great fields of alfalfa. You would get
lost In them. Shake the clay from your
let go Of that dollar long enough to let the
eagle breathe and get on the 'keers,' and
come TO Kansas and see: nothing will hurt
you; wen let you go back; don't be so
hide bound. Wen bet a penny that that
man was raised and born in the county
where he lives and was never 10 miles
from home Oh, brother, we plead with
you to come to Kansas, the educational
state of the union. The hills and valleys
are dotted with school houses and
churches. Crops going to waste because
you lazy Illinois fellows won't come out
and work for three dollars day. We bet
this man uses the old wooden moldboard
plow and the cradle to cut his wheat if
up in the twentieth century. If you have
anything else you want answered. fire EN-
out here, but we would advise you, If you
are not afraid of getting lost, to come to
Kansas to Decatur county to Jennings

treat in the five set match between

he was whiting considerably and after a
short rest Larned came out and took
the necessary two sets with compare

gave him great advantage over Larned
who was considerably slower Ward
lacked the strength, however, and final

work Ward took the first set at Ga
