One Was Injured.

after it had started to descend upon
the slough from the north, going to-
ward the park. and sped diagonally
across the driveway and until it struck
the sidewalk, which it raised several
inches above the roadway This stopped
the car, OF else it might have gone
down the embankment into the slough.
The car was in charge of Motorman
Charles Conkling, who set the brake
and did what he could to stop it after
it left the rails. There were twelve
people in the car at the time, includ
ing several children, but nobody was
hurt, although more or less shaken
up. The car practically escaped unin-
iured It was fortunate accident.
Spreading of the rails was the cause
of the accident.

HAVE NOMORE POMP
KANSAS CUTS OUT FRILLS AND
EXPENSES.
Instead of Larger Expenditure for Com
mencement the Pupils Take Trip;
The State Superintendent Heartily
Approves of New Plan; Other
Schools Will Probably Adopt the
New Idea.

Topeka, Kan, June S.-Superintend-
ent r. Z. Long of the Lincoln County
High school. with the advice and coun-
sci of his wife, has put up the bars
against frills and fine clothes for COM
mencement exercises, and has estab-
hshed new pian OF entertainment
for the pupils whose parents are finan-
cially able to spend money on these
occasions. Instead of expensive gowns
and clothes for the commencement, Mr..
and Mrs. Long have just accompanied
the classes on trip to Topeka to
explore the state capitol building, and
to Lawrence, where they visited the
state university.
They also visited State Superintend-
ent of Schools Fairchid and talked
about the new plan of doing away with
costly invitations and programs and
fine clothes for their commencement
exercises, and diverting the money u.s.
ually spent for these luxuries to a gen
eral fund to be used in defraying the
expenses of a trip. Next year the
classes will go to some other city in
the state, probably Leavenworth, where
the children may visit the National
Soldiers Home, Fort Leavenworth and
the state and federal penitentiaries.
Likes New Plan.
The charge is often made in Kansas
that the school authorities are too full
of new tangled ideas and theories, that
the plain days of the little white school
house and the common sense teachings
of our fathers have been abandoned.
This may be true of some, but it is
not true of State Superintendent Fair
child. This official was impressed with
the new plan of the Lincoln County
superintendent, and is in thorough SYM
pathy with the movement to do away
with fine clothes and engraved invi-
tations as well as the other needless
expense that is laid upon the parents
of school children.
Il want to see all the schools Of
Kansas eliminate this foolish and ex-
pensive frill business said Mr.. Fair
child. 81 think the Lincoln County
high school has set a fine example to
the schools of Kansas and l hope they
will do away with every expense with
the commencement, making a rule that
the graduates should be plainly and
simply dressed, and then spend such
money as is necessary in taking the
class on delightful and instructive
-. L L
state for the practical and broader
knowledge it will gain. At this season
after a hard years work is over for
the pupils, | know of nothing that will
so stimulate and benefit them as trip
to some point of interest in the state.
| hope that every high school in Kan
sas will try this plan next year, and
Later report upon the benefits of such
a journey"

MUCH BUILDING IN COUNTRY
Increased Prosperity Shown in Report
of Bradstreet.

Great present and prospective pros
perity are reflected in reports made to
Bradstreet's from the building trade.
Favorable weather has aided in this,
as has, of course, the ease of money,
the fact that repression ruled in 1908
and that the second or spring quarter
of the year usually witnesses the high
tide of activity in this line.
Returns from forty-one cities of the
United States show total aggregate
of building permitted for in May to
have been $56,5Os,597, as against $751;
OS6,4SS in April and $29,S9l PA in
May, 1908. There is here shown a gain
of 1915 per cent over April, and of SO
per cent over May last year, with only
ten out of the forty-one cities report
ing showing smaller aggregate of
building than in May, 1908.
The gain in May of SO per cent, it
will be seen, compares with an increase
of 80 per cent for the first quarter
of the year, an increase of 449 per
cent in April, of S3 per cent in March
and "a per cent in the months of Janu-
airy and February. The gain indicated
over April is of especial significance
in this connection, because it seems,
providing the percentages of increase
are maintained, that May will surpass
the best records hitherto made of build
ing in this country.

LAW MAY Be invalid
COURT TIES UP THE ROAD AND
BRIDGE FUND.
State Auditor Is Enjoined From Issu-
ing Warrants Under Authority of
New Law; Judge Brill Says Roads
and Bridges Are Works of Internal
Improvement; Twenty Days in
Which to Answer.
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
There is little doubt that the "Pork
Barrel law is unconstitutional, ac-
cording to the decision of Judge Hascal
R. Brill in the district court today, and
he granted temporary injunction to
restrain State Auditor Samuel G.. liver
son from issuing warrants under it,
says the Dispatch. He decided that
the action brought by Senator L. 0.
Cooke to secure a permanent injunction
could be maintained, and granted the
defendant twenty days within which to
file an answer.
Two questions were raised at the
hearing last week One was whether
the acts of the legislature authorizing
the payment of 100000 out of the
general fund of the state were constitu-
tional and the other, whether the ac-
ton could be maintained. the state
holding that the issuance of an injunc-
ton would be an unlawful interior
ence with the executive powers of the
state by the judicial power.
The law provides that the state can
never contract debts for work of in
ternal improvement or be a party to
any such contracts. The auditor al
legged that roads and bridges are not
works of internal improvement. Judge
Brill decides that they are, and says
it is ''too clear for argument"
As to whether the action can be
maintained or not, he says:
IF the act is unconstitutional the
auditor would proceed without author
ity of law and outside the authority
conferred on him by the state. He
would not be acting for the state, and
an injunction to restrain him from
acting is not an interference with the
performance of his duties as an exec
utive officer of the state. The action
can be maintained"

coast. He has received tempting
offer from large California lumber
company to take the position of
manager. The offer carries with it
salary of $1,000 year and a bonus
of $4,000 of the company's stock.
In case Senator Works should conclude
to accept the offer, it will necessitate
the removal of the family to either
San Francisco or Portland, Oregon.
Senator Works is in Chicago at pres
ent, and upon his return he will proba
bly, announce his decision. The offer
is so good that his friends are afraid
that he will accept it. In any event.
Senator Works is to be congratulated
upon the matter.

LOVE OF THE BABIES
DIR. HALL GIVES ADVICE TO
MOTHERS.
Cool Clothing, Daily Baths and Care
full Diet Are Essential Features
Noted in the State Health Commits
sioner's Circular to Mothers; Their
Care During Summer is Matter of
Science, Diplomacy and Common
Sense.

The baby must be cared for In the
hot summer months and Health Com
missioner p. NJ. Hall is sending out
thousands of printed notices of instruc-
ton to all mothers who have appeared
within the last year on the birth rec
ords.
Care Of babies in hot weather Dr.
Hall considers matter of science, di-
plomacy and common sense. DR.. Hall
is willing to supply the scientific
knowledge, and he leaves it to the
mothers to combine with him on com
mon sense and themselves furnish the
diplomacy.
Cool clothing and daily baths are
among the important features of Dr.
Halls printed circular. He has sent
out several thousand of them up to
date, and there are many more moth
ers to be reached before the health
commissioner feels satisfied that he has
done his duty by mother and baby
The cost of printing and mailing DR.
Hall considers infnistesimal in compar-
ison with the good he is confident
will be accomplished.
The circular advises mothers of all
babies under l year of age. 1t is in
tended to supplement rather than sup
plant the advice of the family physi-
clan, where physicians are employed.
Here are some of the hints which DR..
Hall gives to mothers, and they apply
to hot weather in particular:
"Baby should wear napkin, thin
gauze shirt and thin muslin slip during
the very hot weather An abdominal
binder of thin flannel should be worn
the first year.
'Give baby bath at least once a
day. In very hot weather, from two
to four general spongings are good. A
teaspoonful of salt to pint of water
helps.
leave the windows open. Fresh air
is great. But keep baby in the shade.
Until years old, give the young
ster noon day nap, and at least six
hours of uninterrupted sleep at night.
mo tubercular mother should nurse
her own child; otherwise this milk of
nature is the best. She should be care
full of her diet and habits Three meals
day are best for the mother. Beer or
tea are dangerous, especially in large
quantities.
Neither patent foods nor condensed
milk are proper substitutes for natlr-
al nursing. Use fresh milk from in
spected cows, keeping same i'm large
mouthed bottles
Don't feed the baby every time it
cries; give it drink of boiled water.
Don't give baby or young children
fruit in hot weather.
Above all, take care of the baby.
