Bows Orchestra Scores Success.

A good sized audience listened to
the first public appearance in concert
of the Boys Orchestra, under the di-
rection of Prof. J. D. Bryson at
Steyer' opera house on Friday evening
and they were very greatly surprised
at the attainment of these boys in SO
short time. They rendered several
quite difficult selections admirably,
and ELECTED prolonged applause.
Prof. Bryson has done excellent work
with this organization, as he has with
mis- band. The program was strength
ened with solo work by Miss Myra
Moran, and Mis- Ella Nesheim, and
violin numbers by Alex Bear and
Prof. Bryson, each of which was re-
ceived with enthusiasm.

explains what became Of part Of the
S500,0o0 estate left to her by her hus-
band twenty years ago. The search
was conducted by ]. II. Squibb, execu'
tor Of Mrs. Kings estate,
There were no children born 10 the
Kings and when Mrs King came ont Of
mourning two years after her husbands
death it was found she had developed an
eccentricity OF characters bordering ON
insanity. She discharged all her ser.
wants, she had the windows and doors
Of her home iron barred, and she re-
fused TO receive visitors. She grew
worse and at the end OF four years,
about 1889 it was thought best to send
her to a sanitarium. At the time she
was promised that no one should enter
her home until after her death.
When the court appointed commit.
tee for her estate il was impossible TO
find more than $4,000 In a bank and
she refused TO tell what had become OF
the rest. There was then no thought
Of searching the house.
Mrs. King died two weeks ago and by
her will Mr.. Squibbs was the executor.
When the legal formalities were con.
cluded he began a hunt for the missing
securities and on Thursday Of last week
he turned the key in the rusty lock
and entered the house. The astonishing
discovery was then made.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Hugh NJ. G.
Gardner of Chicago spoke on "Agricul'

character OF nation and that our ar
ehitecture was vain, tawdry, and sham.
ming.
At present there is battle of styles
and conditions, he said. American has
run the gauntlet through the Gothics
and the dear old Louises and the Co
ionial, which appears with hay fever
regularity. In ten years the best houses
are out Of date and in twenty they are
torn down. The accumulation which we
tear down every year, is worth millions
Of dollars; more than any other nation
spends in the erection of new build
ingA
A building Is the fruit of a mans ma
ture, he went on. II is a mirror, not
only Of himself, but Of the whole peo.
pie at any given time and place. The
vain, tawdry and unseemly buildings
reflect US.
But there are a minimum of buildings
which are sane, sound and wholesome.
The existence of the two opposing sides
denotes the war between the influence
Of the Democratic idea and the threat.
ened oppression Of the dollar. We should
have a school Of architecture Of our
own.

spoke on the Relation of Decorative
Sculpture to Architecture
In the afternoon the delegates, the
guests of the National Society Of Mural
Painters, made an excursion around the

KANSAS CITY. Feb, s.-The Barling'
ton railroad fNight traffic manager
George II. Cosgove, and Freight Broker
George l. Thomas, replying to indiet'
ments returned against them In the fed
eral court. iiled motions TO quash the
entire proceedings. The Burlington had
been indicted on seven counts. Il may
he made seven answers, all Of them idcn'
tical in text and demurring on the
grounds that the allegations contained
in the criminal suit brought against
them were insufficient.
In the instance Of Thomas. the fright
broker, who is alleged TO have had a
deal on with the Burlington, his clerk,
Taggart, and Cosgo,e, the Burlington's
freight manager, motions TO quash were
also filf. After dtmuring on Tho
grounds Of insufiiciency Of allegations,
no reasonable certainty aud Because
the indictment charges no onense
against the United States for the reason
that the alleged conspiracy became
merged In the completed otfenss. which
are alleged TO have been the object Of
the alleged conspiracy, the demurrer
reads;
because the objects Of the alleged
concert we're the ofenses Of offering,
granting, receiving and giving rebates,
concessions and determinations, which
offenses in themselves required a con.
cert and participation Of plurality Of
agents, and the said indictment shows
no concert or combination Of persons
other than that necessary TO commit
the said oifense.'
These cases cannot now come up until
the April term OF court, a. the jury has
been dismissed for the present term.

House Committee on Military Affairs Il
Investigate Conditions.
CHICAGO. Feb. "A dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington. D, c., says:
The House Committteee on Military
Affairs, Of which Representative Hull
Of Iowa. is chairman, has determined TO
put an end to graft in the army.
II Congress enacts legislation in sc-
eordance with its recommendation
mileage accounts can no longer be pass
ed, nor can army transports be used for
excursions BY officials, or members Of
Congress, or anyone else. The commit.
tee is searching for other leaks in the
laws which permit diversion of money
into the pockets of interested parties.
I'VE estimate that $4,000 has been
paid out in mileage said Representa-.
tive Hull, "to which the recipients were
not entitled. They got hold Of the money
BY evading the law which Congress has
enacted for the express purpose of in
Producing economy in transportation.
The intention of Congress was to reduce
the amount Of money an officer shall
receive who was under orders to the
Philippines.
"The law states specially that only
actual expenses shall be paid between
the United States and its insular pos.
sessions, but we have found that officers
have been ordered to Nagasaki, Japan,
or Shanghai, or even down TO Hongkong,
and thence to Manila, travelling with
the exception Of the last leg, on govern
ment transports. These have received
mileage when they should have been re-
imbursed only for their actual expenses
and the latter amount TO about 81
day while mileage for the trip amounts
into the hundreds. An officer going to
Manila via Europe receives over $500
in mileage. II ordered to Manila he
goes direct from San Francisco and II
is cut down two-thirds.'
