BONAR CASE APPEALED.
He Was Convicted of Numbering DR..
H. NJ. Smith.

Two appeals, covering over 100 type-writ-
ten pages each, were fled in supreme
court this morning. Samuel Milton Bonar,
was convicted of murder in the sec
ond degree and sentenced to life impris-
onment for the killing Of DR.. H. NJ.
Smith at Washington. Kan, has filed his
appeal and asked for bail pending a hear

death of Bonar's wife. She died of poison,
presumably, and while II was the general
opinion that she committed suicide, Bonar
accused DIR. Smith of having administered
the poison to her.
The defense made by Bonar when ar
raigned for the killing was self-defense-
He said that he went into Smiths office
and spoke to him concerning tne oeatn OF
his wife, and that the doctor went 10 a
corner where he kept a number OF Span
ish war relics, consisting OF swords, knives
and guns, and picked up a weapon Win
the intention of a~ssaulting him. He then
shot the physician to protect himself.
The defendant was found guilty of muir
der in Washington county district court
and sentenced to life Imprisonment. The
appeal is filed by his attorneys, Charles
Smith and Fred Powell, OF Washington
The other bulky appeal is that of P. A.
who sued another ~ranehman, John Mar

HOUSE BILL NO. 1855.
a Discussion of the Provisions of
II Measure.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
The bill known as house bill Nc. 1855,
introduced by c.. w. ALBANIAN of Atchi-
son. has much merit.
The bill provides that the real estate
belonging to fraternal, benevolent and
charitable orders be exempt from tax
alton when the second or third stories
are used for lodge purposes and the
rental income from the balance of 1t IS
used for charitable and benevolent pur-
poses. The bill precludes the POSSIBLE
ity of any local lodge owning n hay
ing exempt any other property than
one in which the lodge meetings are
held. No individual can take advan-
tage of it and have his property ex-
empt because of the fact that a lodge
meets in the building. In order to have
1t exempt the lodge must be the owner,
and must meet in the building, and
must use the entire foo covering the
property to be exempt. If the lodge
room is so feet wide and 100 feet long
only the lots on which this building IS
located could, under this proposed law,
be exempt. If the lodge or other char
table institution should own other
property it would be subject to taxa
ton.
As an illustration we may take the
Ode Fellows. Their ordinary accumula-
lions are used for relieving distress,
burying the dead and educating the
orphans. In h state Of Kansas there
was paid out during the fiscal year

purposes by them. This money was
mostly raised by fees and dues but
some of it was from rents on buildings
owned by local lodges 1t is these
buildings thai house bill No. 1855 seeks
to relieve from the burden Of taxation;
These buildings are built and owned
only by extraordinary effort and care
full management. One instance will be
sufficient to cal your attention to the
and earnestness it lakes to gather
together the funds for a building. AT
Dover the members are putting up a
building. They take their teams and
haul the rock that brothers have quar-
ried, they haul the sand, they gather
together and help the stone mason TO
put up the foundation, they help the
carpenter to raise the building, lay the
floors. Single the roof, spread the paint
and when it is done stand up and say
HSee what we have wrought with our
hands" and the outlay of a small
amount of money. Is there any just
man who will say that this building
should be taxed when the income from
the rent will go into the treasury OF the
lodge and be paid out for the relief or
distressed. This material is all gather-
ed together. the work all done and the
money furnished in order that the lodge
MAY have a little income other than the
fees and dues with which to take care
of the distressed when adversely comes.
Law not the heavy hand OF axatlc
on that which is used for charity ana
benevOlence.

Senator Miller is used to the Strenu-
Gus life for before he got into Kan
sas politics he was in Clusters division
of Sheridan's cavalry during the civil
a His regiment enrolled $500
men during the war and returned but
500 to their homes at the close of hos
t~ilities.
Senator Miller taught school in
Shawnee county in so. Three years
later he organized the mercantile and
stock raising business in Usage county
with his brother W. w Miller n
now Miller Bros. is a well known firm.
The ranch consists of $4,000 acres in
ties. Senator Miller also has a
ranch on the eastern slope of the
Rocky mountains where he keeps
5000 head of sheep.
Senator Miller is a brother of Brad
ford Miller, of Topeka.
The following is a special dispatch
from Topeka to the st. Louis Re
public and seems to be considered of
great Importance in Missouri: 1.-The
senate made a requisition upon the
secretary of state today for forty-two
mirrors, to be placed in the several
committee rooms. This order was a
result OF a demand by the young wo-
men who are stenographers and
clerks in the service of the several
committees"
Senator Noftzger, from Harper, intro
duced a bill in the senate Tuesday to
establish a uniform and lawful basis
for the fees the nervous and hdgIty
bridegroom shall pay for the marriage
ceremony. senator NOftzger would
make a fiat 81 rate as the legal fee for
marriage ceremonies, which of course
does not include hacks, flowers, decora-
lions, flower girls, best men, brides
maids and music but just the one nee
essary official, the minister. Senator
Noftzger says his bill is not intended
to keep an over flush and over thank
full bridegroom from paying the minis
ter more if he wants to but such a
law will prevent "e~xorbitant'' fees be-
ing charged for marriage ceremonies.
OF the political families represented
in the legislature none are better known

Senator Getty, from Wyandotte, re-

time, contains a clause which gives any
probate judge the power to issue a
