published October 9. 1909. I have not
the figures of former increases, but am
confident this is twice as great as any
ether biennial increase. Let us ex-
amine where the increase was made.
There are thirteen principal penal
and charitable institutions the peni-
Tertiary, reformatory. two insane hos
sons, the Industrial School for Boys.
Industrial School for Girls, State Sol
diers' home, School for Blind, School
for Feeble Minded, Orphans home and
'dother Bickerdyke home, and in these
the appropriations naturally divide
INTO three heads: First, salaries; Sec
ond, maintenance, and third, perma-
nent improvements, which include the
purchase of land, erection of buildings
and such things as are an addition to
TIE plant. The total appropriations for
salaries for these thirteen institutions
made in 1907 was $797, 461, and for
1909. $S35.680, an increase of over
$4,000, and this includes the peniten-
tiary with five hundred less inmates,
which will much more than make up
fcr any increase in number in any
Their institutions.
1.-The total appropriations made in
1907 for maintenance was 81, 464,32 and
in 1909 for the same purpose, was ST =
&c., 300, an increase of SCI ,s79, and again
the penitentiary is included, so that in
salaries and maintenance alone, these
thirteen institutions, with fewer in
mates, cost the state over 500, 900 more.
This cannot be defended.

again. the total appropriations made
in 1907 for permanent improvements as
indicated under the third heading, was
$6S9, $50. and in 1908 only 1926, 900, or a
decrease of $313.050, so that we find that
while the total appropriations for the
latter year were over s650,000 more than
the former. the institutions got $4,000
less to put into the permanent plant
Kansas as a state is to spend on her
penal and charitable institutions $780,
900 more for running expenses. and put
$4,000 less in permanent additions to
her plants. And this with less depend
entsi Can some one tell why? Refer
ence is hereby made to the session laws
of 1907 and 1909 under the heading of
Appropriations which is hereby
marked Exhibit C. and made a part
hereof, if any one wishes to verify these
figures.
There are eight educational institu-
lions supported in whole or in part by

Agricultural college, the Fort Hay

Prisoner Escapes

Chief of Police Hyland received a
telegram from Bismarck this after
noon, stating that Tom Burke, a box
car robber sent up from Minot a
year and half ago, for box car
robbery, had made his escape We'd
nesday non, and was headed this
way. Mr.. Hyland and his force are
on the lookout.
Burke is bad pill. He was ar
rested in company with Paddy Glib
bons. Officer Hylano made the ar
rest He learned of the room where
the men were staying, and secreting
himself in the room, made the arrest
and finding some of the stolen silks
and cigars, the men confessed to the
crime, and were sent up for three
years each. Burke evidently wanted
to get away pretty badly, for he took
a great risk, in trying to escape. If
caught, five years will be added to
his time.

ed in the Independent, and altho
many papers are circulated in the
vicinity of Ambrose, the possessors
of the horses were pr Jne to give them
up.
Sheriff Sorenson of Ward county,
in some manner learned that the
horses were in the vicinity of Am
brose, and securing the assistance of
States Attorney Braatlein, they had
little trouble in locating the horses
The horses were repie s.ned, or at any
rate, arrangements were being made
to replevin them, and the case was
set for June 7. However, the ways
of Justice at Ambrose are a little
different than anywhere else in the
world, and the case was heard before
the proper time. The trial was pull
ed off unexpectedly and the horsei
returned to the farmers from whom
] they were taken by the officers. Sher

The game Of ball between the Mi
not Magicians and the crack team
from Tower City Wednesday even
ing, proved to be an easy victory for
the home team, and rneir record of
not yet having been defeated, is still
unbroken. During the first inning it
looked as tho the VISITORS were 60
ing to have our 5oys going, for they
connected with Red Allen and batted
him to fare We we'll, making four
scores. However, Red soon fooled
them and kept their scores down to
seven, while our tie; IN had eighteen
to their credit, making eight of them
in one inning. The Tower City boys
became confused. They were con-
sidered good players, but not in the
right class to win. This was their
first defeat this season.

Mr., and Mrs. Geo. Bissell died satur-

j. A. Horizons
Horrible Death

j. A. Horton, the aged father OF
T. J, Horton, a prominent land and
loan man of this city, and formerly
connected with the MinOt State bank,
met a horrible death in a coulee near
Tasker sometime Tuesday night, hav-
| ing wandered among .ne brush until
he fell exhausted and death came to
his relief. f .& ~
The aged victim desired to go to
the farm near Tasker Tuesday and
being old and weak, his son asked
him not to go. The old gentleman,
being childish, would not listen to
reason and started out alone. He
gave his knife and pocket book to a
friend to keep for him, saying that
he was going to the farm, and left
by the way of the 500. When the
son heard that his father had gone,
he telephoned to friend at Tasker
to look for his father, and see that
he arrived at his destination safely,
but in some manner the old gentle
man got off the train and started for
the farm alone. When about two
miles from the place, he became be-
wildered and lost his way in coulee
which grew thick with small trees.
He wandered about the place; no
doubt for hours, for when found, his
body was cold in death. The many
scratches on his face, told Of the
manner in which he fought the un-
dergrowth in order TO find his way
to a place of safety.
Mr.. Horizons body was brot to
Minot last night, and placed in
Weagant's morgue. The remains
were shipped to Lime Springs, Ia,
this afternoon for burial. Short fun
eral services were conducted at the
! chapel this afternoon, underline aus
, pices of the Masons, of which order
the deceased was a member, and a
body of Masons accompanied the
body to the train.
He had been a Mason for greae
many years, and frequently attended
the local lodge. He was memDer
of the Northern Light Lodge No. 266
of Northwood, la.
He was born in Forest Lake town
ship, Pennsylvania, March 26, 1928
therefore was SO yeavs Of age.
| A few years ago he moved to North
Dakota where he made his home with
his son. He leaves several sons in
Iowa and Minnesota. Mr.. Horton
was fine old gentleman, and will be
missed.
