Drobihifiou War in Kansas,

The Kansas Supreme Court has ap-
noipted receivers for the property of all
the breweries in the United States doing
business in Kansas, holding that the
State has a right to coniscate all prop
erty of any illegal business. Most OF
the brewers appear to be making little
resistance. but all are giving support to
the Annheuser-Busch company of St.
Louis, which is disposed to fight the
order. The receivership rule is based
upon the prohibition law which went into
effect ins1SS1.

More passengers on railway trains lost
their lives in train accidents in the quar-
ter ended December last than in any pre-

BOY BREAKS U PNAVY WIRELESS.
Intercepts Messages and Jokes Ships
but Can't Be Arrested.

The fact that there is no law reposing
authority in government officers to pro-
tect official wireless stations during the
exchange of wireless messages is giving
great deal of trouble to the station at
the Washington navy yard. A youth liv
ing in that vicinity. the son of a police
man, has set up a station of his own and
takes delight in interpolating messages
during official exchanges. He has repre-
scented himself to be at distant naval
stations or at sea on warships equipped
with wireless apparatus. The local police
authorities were appealed to, but said
they had not the power to interfere with
the young mans experiment.

Neglected by Wives for Bridge, Pass
Ordinance TO Stop Games.


The husbands and fathers of Mellette,
S. d., have arisen in revolt against the
game of bridge whist and have passed an
ordinance making it a misdemeanor for
any woman to play the game, and impos-
ing a punishment of so to 500 fine and
several days in Jail. The men declare
their women folk were so infatuated by
bridge that they were neglecting their
household duties. Mothers even sighted
their babies to play bridge and husbands
were given no attention at all by their
wives. The women are angry over the
passage of the ordinance. They say they
have as much right to pass the time play
ing bridge whist as the men have to play
poker. The town marshal so feared the
wrath of the women that he resigned.
The town council appointed another man
in his place who promises to arrest any
woman he finds playing bridge.
