which the railroads so bitterly fought.
1t is the duty Of the board, under the
provisions of this bill and the exist
ing law, to investigate and supervise
railroad conditions. If the board does
its duty il will inform its attorney as
to the result of it's Investigations. Be
ing informed thus, or having informa-
ton otherwise, it is the duty of the
attorney to file complaint. No shipper
need take upon himself the burden of
even using the cheap two-cent stamp
with whose simplicity he was sought
to be beguiled. In spite of railroad
opposition and the sophistries of pre-
tended friends. the people of the state
ought to be grateful to their house
members and the senate minority who
stood for something substantial in q
law.
TT now rests, as the execution of all
laws however good rests, with the
board of railroad commissioners and
its attorney, whether regulation of cor
pOrations by the state is a real thing
or only a pretense. They have the
weapons in their hands to see that
Kansas interests are justly recognized

ciate and enjoy, since it is full of ac-
ton and humor.
The classes heretofore have bought
stock plays and by cutting them up
and inserting a few roasts on the
faculty and students, have managed to
work in some local coloring; but this
class has written an entirely original
play using the faculty and the students
as we'll as the fictitious persons for
characters. On their posters they ad-
vertise that the play has fifty-two
characters, including millionaire,
mummy, a college president, many
professors, many students and a coll
ored janitress. All who have seen or
heard it have pronounced it good and
one of the professors advised the class
to have 1T copyrighted. A student of
the drama would undoubtedly say it
was epic, but this is a point in its
favor if it is pure fun that is wanted.
No less than ten students had a
hand in writing the play. A crowd
from the class got together and made
an outline of the plot and then the
scenes were taken by groups, who
wrote the dialogue. The crowd again
came together and the play was har-
monized. What one could not think
of some one else could.
Twenty years ago the life and in
terests of Washburn were centered
about Rice hall. then called Science
hall. That was the only building Of
Importance on the campus. and in it
were not only all the class rooms but
C0dpeI services were also nelO there, |
and the students and faculty roomed
in the building.
There were strict rules for manag-
ing the student body as would be
necessary with the conditions of the
times. The young ladies and young
gentlemen occasionally got together, |
though, and then they did enjoy life |
to the full extent until the faculty
interfered.
It is with one of these escapades
that the play commences. The pro- |
fessors at that time were more freaks |
than would be expected, but in a bur-
lesque they must appear that way, as
they naturally did to the students of
that time.
Ichabod Wilson, according to the
play. although he was no more re- |
sponsible for the escaDade than were |
the other students connected with it, |
was nevertheless one of those unfor- /
tunate fellows who always get caught /
and punished for the whole crowd. |
His punishment in this case was more |
than the faculty had intended, and by
a series of events too complicated to |
mention, he was found asleep in the |
attic of Rice hall by a company of |
students and Mrs Giles, the colored |
janitress, twenty years later. The stu
dents were actually present-day peo-
pie.

NOT ADJOURN TONIGHT
House Says 1t Is Not Yet Ready to
Quit Business.

The legislature will not adjourn to-
night. The senate is ready to quit
but the house is not.
This morning the house defeated a
resolution by L. H. Seaver which was
as follows:
Resolved, by the house of repre-
sentatives, the senate concurring
therein:
THAT the consideration of house
bills and joint resolutions in the house
and of senate bills and joint resolu-
tions in the senate shall cease at 10
o'clock a. M, Saturday. March 8, and
that the consideration of all bills and
joint resolutions in each branch of
the legislator shall cease at midnight
of Saturday, March 4 provided this
resolution shall not apply to appro-
priation bills presented by the ways

ments to house bills and house amend
ments to senate bills"

WANT CARVER.
Shippers Would Like to See Him
Named as Attorney.
To Put Into Execution the New
Railroad Law.

After the two houses finally got to-
gether and passed a railroad law
which seems to at least partially meet
the demand for railroad legislation,
some of the shippers started a move
ment to get Governor Hoch to appoint
Judge 7. F. Carver of Topeka as at
torney for the board of railroad COM
missioners. Upon the attorney will
devOIve the bringing of complaints to
equahze rates and their prosecution
before the board. Judge Carver was
the author of the house bill. which the
shippers favored, and he has the con-
hdence of the people at large.
II would not ask for the place"
said Judge Carver this morning, when
asked about his boom, but I really
would like to show what can be ac-
comphshed under the provisions of
this new law"
Judge Carver thinks the law as final
" passed is just about as good as the
bill he drafted. When asked for his
opinion concerning it he said:
While the railroad bill passed last
evening is not what the shippers de-
right to expect from this legislature it
places in the hands OF the commits
sioners and the attorney for the board
ample power to correct iniusticeS in
freight rates. We have urged the
granting not only of additional power
to the board. but have insisted on the
right OF the board to exercise that power
whenever the occasion arose for it. This
the bill. as it first passed the house
gave The majority of the senate stood
with the railroads against this, and
thought either to quiet the insistence
of the shippers, or block any legislat ton
upon the subject, by injecting into the
house bill the provision for a special
attorney They were careful, however.
to make the attorney as powerless to
initiate any proceedings as they had
made the commissioners.
THE credit belongs to the house for
standing firmly by the principle, which
was recognized by the original house
bill, that this board must be authorized
to act for the correcting or unjust T.. -es
without waiting for written complaints
from any third party.
1.-The house members of the confer
ence committee, after long contro-
versy Overcame the opposition of the
senator from Edwards and got back

railroads in the state. For practical
purposes the bill passed is Just as
drastic and far-reaching as the bill

into a gang of daylight chicken

have sold them to the wholesale

their thefts SO as not to appear in the

It is nothing new for a senior class
to stage a play some time during the

senior class has given one for the
benefit of the institution.
The play is called ''Lost-A Stu

the roasting, of course, but the play

The Carrier see.

You often have heard Of carrier pig
cons and the part they play in war,
but how many boys and girls ever
heard Of a carrier bee?
These little honey gatherers have
such sense Of direction that they
can always fly straight to their hives,
even from places they have never
visited before.
We are told that a few years ago
a beekeeper trained some Of his In
sects az message carriers Knowing
they will always fly home from any
point in a range Of four Of five miles,
he tied tiny notes for his little daugh-
ters on the bees and set them loose in
a totally unfamiliar place In very
short time they we're back at their
own hives, messages and all.
Some people think bees might be
made very useful in war times, and
even now experiments are being made
to see Just how far and how directly
they will fly.
