STATE AID FOR ROADS.

Kansas needs its constitution amend
ed so the state can help make roads.
That is something that every neWspa-
per and every good roads friend should
begin to consider.
Under the constitution, the state is
forbidden to take part in any works OF
internal Improvement. Most states DO
and Kansas should.
Colorado's fine roads are built large
ly by state aid. and the most perfect
piece of roadmaking in the west, the
famous Skyline drive at Canon City,
was constructed by convict labor. 1t
was outdoor work for the convtcts, it
was stimulating and healthful, limited
to eight hours, and no losses. Kansas
should be able to do this.
Every friend of roads should try ito
make it possible for the next legisla-
ture to authorize the submission of an
amendment to the constitution permit
ing this state aid in roadmaking and
bridge building.-Garden City TeIe-

LURToNs FIRST TRUST CASE.

Because of the criticism that follow
ed thu presidents appointment of judge
Lurton to the supreme court, the lat
ter'S first trust case utterance, in the
appeal of the Mississippi lumber COM
nine, becomes matter of common in
terest The court decides against the
trust and dissolves it. On the same
day the court also decides against the
andar Oil company in Tennessee,
ousting it from that state. Both cases
We're appealed by the respective states,
whose arms in combating powerful
combines are upheld by Judge Lurton
and his associates.
The anti-Lurton sentiment had n
right to hearing and was accorded it,
though perhaps it went a little too far
in it's severity. That being true, the
decision in hand might without irfus-
tice TO anyone be regarded as proof of
Judge Lurton's fairness and a vindica
ton of the presidents choice. 1t is not
to be supposed, however, that Mr.. Taft
would make an appointment where
such vindication was necessary

THE ANTHRoPo1D APE STORY.

THE ANTHROPOID APE STORY.
The encyclopedia Britannica, under
tie heading, Women devotes six
pa of small type to telling how bad
ly women have been treated, and to the
laws which have held them down. The
laws in one country demanded that Il
WIDOW should marry her late husbands
brother, and other cruelties to women
are told in these six pages. A woman
would thoroughly enjoy reading "Wo-
mem IN the Encyclopedia Britannica:
Ihe same wor'-, under the title, Man.
Anthropology- vol 2, page 10Y: also
Mammala, page 444.' To be sure, count
ing the pages in both articles the en-
cycIoped1a devotes sixteen pages 70
an, but it does not tell of mis-
WRONGS; it attempts to classify him!
The encyclopedia, in speaking of Man.
says: The point at issue is whether a
man shall be in a separate class by
himself, and if not, just what higher
animals shall be included with him.
That he really should not be classed
with the Anthropoid ape, and yet that
the several attributes which distinguish
man, and give him an isolated place
among living creatures. are not to lie
found in hiF bodily structure, which is
the same as that of an ape"
The encyclopedia quotes Carl Won
Linneaus, the Swedish botanist, who
thinks Man belongs to the Monkey,
Lemur, Bat class. All that is not such
very pleasant reading for we men: not
half as nice as what the women have
! to read about how they have been
| abused.
Why should the encyclopedia devote
six pages to the wrongs of women, and
not one to the wrongs of men? The
women will not take the nthropoid

Attacked by Cow.

Attacked by maddened COW, Marcus
Carr, a Cornwall cattle dealer, was
saved from death here Sunday by the
timely assistance of Peter Donnelly,
another drover, after he had been
knocked down and trampled upon. Miss
Sadie Kent of this town previously had
been chased by the animal when it broke
the rope by which Carr was leading it.
The COW became unruly at Cornwall
Saturday night and knocked down Will
liam Hudson, who was severly bruised.
Carr then brought the animal to Middle
bury with the intention of putting it in
the cattle yard. When nearing the
yard the COW broke away and chased
Miss Kent for some distance while Carr
tried to head it off. The COW then sudden
y turned on Carr, striking him with it's
head in the right side and legs. He
was knocked down snd trampled about
the chest, abdomen and arms before
Donnelly came up and roped it after a
struggle. The COW was then led to a
shed.
Mr.. Carr was taken to his home in
Cornwall after the encounter but is
rapidly recovering and no serious re-
suits are anticipated

order at eight o'clock and the warning

the architect who had the matter in
charge, and this article was laid over
until a special meeting to be called
later.
The old committee was discharged
and the new prudential committee was
given power to act on the same matter.
The fourth article in the warning,

maintenance of a model high school in
connection with the school of pedagogy
of the college," was also laid over to
await further developments in regard
to building

maintenance of the school during the
coming year.

reelected as follows: l. H. LaFleur, j.
d. Shannon, D. C. Noble, Allan Cal
houn, E. H. Martin.
c. E. Pinney was reelected treasurer
and c. l. Button was elected auditor.
In each case the officers were elected

GYMNASIUM FUND GROWING
Alumni Sending in Subscriptions.
Students Rally With Enthusi-
asm in Support of the
Move y,enf

Progress has been made the past week
toward securing the $35, 900 necessary
to complete the Gymnasium Fund of
$50, 900. One subscription of $1,000 was
received by President Thomas in New
York last week, and other gifts bring
up the total to date to $34, 765. so. This
leaves over S25, 600 still to be collected.
1t will take resolute efforts and gener-
Gus cooperation on the part of all
friends of the college to get this large
sum in so short a time.
The most encouraging token is the
enthusiastic rally of the undergraduates
to the support of the movement
Promptly on the announcement of
Gov. McCullough's offer, collectors
were appointed in each class, and be-
fore the adjournment of the college for
the Easter recess 1854 80 had been
pledged by the students. The canvass
was incomplete when the students left
for their respective homes, and it is ex-
pected that this amonnt will be in
creased considerably, and perhaps
doubled. SO far the class of 1913 is
ahead, their pledges amounting to $271.
