"They have, SIR" said David, in a

We all three looked at the old man
curiously waiting for his explanation
of this disappointing but sensational
report.

CHAPTER VI.

AT two O'Clock that afternoon, at
Barris' suggestion, we gave up the
search for the fountain in the. glade
and cut across the forest to the spin
nev where David and Hewlett were
waiting with our guns and the three
dogs.
Pierpont guyed me numerically
about the "dream-lady," as he called
her. and, but for the significant coin
cidence of Ysonde's and Barris' ques-
tions concerning the white scar on
nv forehead, should long ago have
been perfectly persuaded that l had
dreamed the whole thing. As it was,
7 had no explanation to offer. We
had not been able to find the glade
although so times l came to land
marks which convinced me that we
were lust about to enter it. Barris
was quiet, scarcely uttering a word to
either of us during the entire search.
7 had never before seen him depressed
IN spirits. However, when we came
In sight Of the spinney where a cold
hit of grouse and bottle of Burgundy
awaited each, Barris seemed TO recov-
err his habitual good humor.

Build BRIDGES of Concrete.

Senator Hodge has presented Dill
making it mandatory on county COM
missioners and boards of public works
to build concrete or stone bridges
when the cost of such structures is
not more than 80 per cent greater
than the cost of steel bridges.
Senator Hodges states that the con-
crete bridges will bear about twice
the weight to the square foot that
steel bridges will sustain, and that
the life of the former structure is
much longer than that of steel
bridges.
Normal Schools Ask Appropriations
over a third of a million is asked
nv the state normal and its two
branches at Hays City and the manual
training school at Pittsburg. The bi-
eunial appropriation bill was intro
duced by Senator c. A. S;annard OF
Lyon.
No new buildings are asked in the
bill for the Emporia normal. But Tor
general maintenance, salaries and i'm
movements, an appropriation of $780,
600 is wanted. The Hays branch asks
for 81, 500, ofswhich $4,000 is for a

Woman Suffrage Bobs Up.

Senator Clad Hamilton of Shawnee
has introduced a bill comforting upon
women the right to vote for presidential
electors. Judge Buck has a similar
bill pending in the house. This will
likely bring up a big fight, as there
are large number of members of
both houses that are opposed to the
further extension of woman suf,-
frage.

The Kyle bill to change the time o.
holding the primary election from the
first Tuesday in August. as provided
by the present law, to the first Tues
day in June, was favorably reported
by the house committee on elections.
There is sure to be a spirited debate
in the house over the passage of this
bill, as many members want the date
of the primary to be left as it is
now.

RECEIVERS APPOINTED.

Judge B rlsy, of the CorpOrationOourt,
has appointed receivers for the Wash
inQton National Building aud Loan As
soc alton, of Washington, D. q. This
association was chartered by the state OF
Virginia, With its principal Office 10 the
CITY of Alexandria, and has been ia the
building and loan business for about six
teen years. During this time its trans
actions have covered abouL eight mill
lion dollars. The bill Of complaint al
leges that owing to adverse aad conflict
ing decisions of the courts In different
states, and the different kinds OF stock
outstanding, the directors we're unable
to wind up the affairs Of the association
safely and 10 justice to the stockholders
and borrowers, and asked for receiver.
The association, by answer, made no
objection to the appointment OF re-
celvers. Judge Barley appointed Jo'
siah o. Stoddsrd, formerly secretary oil
the association, and Mr.. Douglass Stuart,
an attorney of this city, receivers. The
cause was referred to II. Noel Garner,
as commissioner, to report upon all
claims &c. Until this report is made,
it is uncertain as to exactly what the
company will pay out to Its stockhold'
ers. This will also depend upon the
decisions of the courts in several states
as to the basis of settlement with the
borrowers. The bill Was filed though
Judge J. K. NJ. Norton and the answer
for the association by Mr.. Forrest
Brown, an attorney of OhsrleStowD, West
