The States superiority.
Incidents Of college days were recalled
last night at the annual banquet Of the
Kansas University Club at the Cochran
Hotel. 1t was one of those informal at
fairs where every enc does as he chooses
and speaks when so disposed. Those
tho failed TO offer toast TO their alma
mater joined in the song of the crimson
and blue"
Representative Charles F. Scott was
POSTMASTER. and. after saying a few
words about the *. s. T." he intro
duced Representative W. a. Calderhead
as the guest of honor.
Mr. CaIderhead said the people of kan
sas are the greatest people on earth, leav-
ing their Impression wherever they go.
Why" he said. "one of its iIIustrious
daughters accomplished what no other
living mortal ever did. She pushed into
Oblivion that famous Ratchet of George
Washington.
IT remember the tine when it was
nothing out Of the ordinary 10 go into a
buffet down there and hear the men be-
hind the bar exelainling; Is tbs hatch

A feature OF the banquet that attracted
much attention was the cover Of the

Those who are left of Gen. Winfield S.
Hancock's Second Army Corps veterans
of every important engagement in the
civil war, gathered last night in feast
of memory at their yearly dinner at the
Arlington Hotel.
The usual routine of dinner speeches
was abandoned and. instead. the soldiers
of the most daring division of the Union
army fought the old battles again in
vivid description. Old. half-forgotten
camp fires blazed again. at least in men,
ory.
In the place of the usual exchange of
wit, there were silent toasts to long dead
comrades and tender "reminiscences Of
Hancock. and his men, enlivened now and
then by Iaughable snecdote of camp life
or a story OF the firing line.
| The exploits of every regiment In the
division were recounted by men who had
known the whine OF a MIME ball, and
when some spring Of vivid remembrance
was touched of the grim days OF 81 and
o. the veterans arose and waved their
napkins and cheered with all the FIRE of
youth
DR.. William Tindsn, president of the
Second Army Corps Association. was
POSTMASTER. He called upon Gen. Nelson
A. Miles. L. S. A.. retired. for the first
address.
You may search the pages OF history
and you viii not find a military organiza-
ton that fought In so many engagements
with so much credit TO their colors as
| the Second division of Grants invincible
army" said the general.
You men should be glad that you are
alive tonight TO be here 10 honor those
who have gone before. and you should
/ be proud Of your record in those stormy
times and in the years that followed"
Letter of Praise.
He read the following extract from a
letter from Gen. Hancock to Gen. Grant
as the best possible tribute TO the division:
| u Is perhaps known 70 sou that this corps had
never lost color a gun pTeEiois 10 this cam

Auditor Tweedale yesterday submitted
10 the Commissioners a statement OF de-
posits made by railway companies 20
the District. on account OF pay Of special

from 1898 to 1910 inclusive, the amount
charged and the surplus remaining over
February %. 1910
He says that under an act OF Congress
the Commissioners are required to sta
ton special policemen at street railway
crossings at the expense Of the railway
companies. From August Is. 1898. TO
February Is, 1910, the companies have de-
posted $S65. Sab, but there has only been
paid during this period $5s4. s71.l, leav-
ing n balance Of s1,247.72
AS the District is not entitled TO this
balance. the auditor recommends the
amount be returned to the railway COM

Arthur Mitchell, claiming to be moi

Birmingham last night and will immet
diately go into practice for his racesi
with Bob Stubs, the local expert. The
races will occur during the progress
of the state fair
Mitchell rides horsepower Flying
Merkel machine and holds the record
for a mile on dirt road of 48 AS
seconds, and for 10 miles on a dirt
road of 9:O3:12. These records were
established at Denver.
In Birmingham it is not believed
that Stubs can be defeated and ~
the coming races there is much I'M
terest. Some days ago Stubs re.
ceived a special machine for these races
and, after testing it, returned it, stat:
ing thatait was not fast enough. A new
machine was Immediately forwarded.
Mitchell is confident that he can de-
feat Stubs and Stubs is equally san-
guine of his own success. The track
here Is one of the best circular mile
courses in the country and rare sport
is to be expected when these two speed
demons meet in competition. I.
