DAWSON AT QUINDARO.
Delivers Address at the Commence

which were well attended, John S. Daw-
son delivered an address to the graduates

Many bright young man have I seen
come out of college with dearly cherished
notions of how this great big world
ought to be run, and fully bent on waging
relentless war against the existing order
of society; when. in fact with all his high
and imposing notions of what ought to
be- he did not have the least conception
phase his folly would assume it matters
not. But the day of his salvation was
near at hand: The world just tripped him
up and rolled its big round self over him
and bumped and bruised and buffeted him,
and if. happily it mashed the nonsense
entirely out of him. he was saved! Then
and not till then he would learn that he
had begun his philosophy at the wrong
end. Had he been more wise he would
have devoted himself to learn how things
are ere he set himself the task of elab-
Grating a theory how they ought to be:
This is intensely practical world and

Their states to the court that it has filed
with the board of railroad commissioners
a written statement to the effect that it
will abide by and perform the order of
the board of railroad commissioners en-
tered on the oath day of May, and make
effective the rates on interstate shipments
as provided for in said order.
Wherefore, the respondent asks that
the application and petition for writ
of mandamus herein be dismissed
1t will be seen from the above that the
express companies have given up the fight
against reduction in the rates. In Texas,
Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma the COM
panies resisted the reduction to the utter
most in the courts, and in some of the
cases gained partial victories. The re-
duction secured in Kansas rates averages
from twenty to twenty-five per cent, COW
ering in its range no reduction at all on
some article to an eighty per cent reduc-
ton in one or two cases.

not circulated in any of the wards of

Der of signers allowed within the law
from the other counties of the district
instead of his home county.
OF the 2,575 signers to Anthony's
nomination petitions, over 400 are
farmers.

LAYS DOWN ARMS.
Epress Companies Accept Mandate of
Railroad Board.

John S. Dawson, attorney for the state
railroad board, has won a great victory
In his fight for a reduction of express
rates. 1t will be remembered that the
railroad board a few days ago granted
Dawson's petition by making AN order
reducing the rates very materially. Daw-
son hurried into the supreme court by
filing application for a writ of man
damus to compel the companies to obey
the order of the board. The attorneys for
the express companies had until tomor-
row to answer. Today w. r. Smith, at
torney for the five express companies,
filed the following paper in the supreme
court:
"And now comes the above named re-
spondent, Wells, Fargo & Company EX-

GARDEN OF WILD FLOWERS.
This May 20 Made Attractive Fsatur
of the Home Garden.

This May 80 Made Attractive Feature
Of the Home Garden.
A very attractive feature of the
home garden is the SO called wild gar
den. in which are planted the various
species Of local wild flowers that win
grow in captivity. such as the maiden
hair fern. the tiger lily. Solomon's seal,
jack In the pulpit, dogs tooth violet,
hepaticas, columbine. pink and yellow
lady slippers and others too numer-
Gus to mention. This garden may oc-
cupy a partly shady place along one
side OF the house or it may be merely
a strip two feet wide. extending from
the front walk half the depth Of the
lot and serving rs very beautiful
and unconventional fence line between
the home and the adjoining property.
When the long strip scheme is utilized
the wild flowers may be re-enforced
with cultivated flowers, such as pop
pies. cosmos. zinnias and asters, with
an occasional rosebush to break the
monotony. To tho possessor Of such
wild garden one Of the joys of spring
is to watch for the first hepaticas and
later see the dogs tooth violet and the
jack In the pulpit appear. An occa-
sional trip to the woods will replenish
the wild garden in case some OF the
transplanted plants succumb to their
new environment.
