Gould Plant the Period.

A pretty story is told of Queen Al.

The queen never loses her interest
in those for whom she has acted az

been most kind 10 the children Of

TRAVELLING MEN COMPLAINED.
Hotel Man Fined for
Violating Sanitary Laws.

Great Bend. Kan. April 23--The
first arrest in Kansas of any hotel
keeper for violation of the hotel law
occurred Thursday in Barton county.
when Inspector Kleinhans of the state
board of health caused a warrant to
be issued for the arrest of the pro-
prietor of the hotel at Ellinwood. He
contended that for two years the pro-
prietor had been notified to make
changes and repairs in the building
to conform with the law. and had
paid no attention to the same. His
report showed a number of the hotel
rooms to be in bad sanitary shape,
without proper ventilation, the kitchen
to be extremely bad. and accumula-
tions of dirt and refuse outside the
hotel The proprietor and owner APP
peared in a justice court here and
pleaded guilty, and was fined $57.
Inspector Kleinhans says there have
been numerous complaints about this
place from members of the U. G. t.
and that a number of other hotels
over the state will meet the same sort
of treatment. Barton county seems
to be a starting point for the move
ment.
