The people of Ellsworth have inter-
ested the w. K. D. club in. placing
memorial stone, something on the order
Of the Santa Fe trail markers which
the D. A R. has had placed along that
historic roadway, on the grave OF MA
jor Henry Inman at that place, the
home of Major Inman's widow ana Two
of their children. Major Inman's mem
mory is surely entitled to this honor
and the Womans Kansas Day club
will find in the project a fitting object
for a society which has for it's aim the
preservation of historical and patriotic
traditions. Major Inman was the his
torian of the Santa Fe trail and col
lected into an interesting and authori-
tative work, a permanent contribution
to western history of much value. He
had an honorable career in the United
States army and happening to be in
Portland at the time of the great fire
there he was placed in charge Of the
city while it was under martial law.
The last years Of his life he spent in
Kansas. His widow attended the meet
ing of the Woman's Kansas Day club
last year ana Will De guest again this
year. stopping with Mrs. J. D. McFar-
land while she is in town. Mrs. Platt-
ner, another Ellsworth woman will pre-
sent the plan for the Inman memorial.

terrain Mrs. Eustace H. Brown, presi-
