HOLDING GOOD PLACES.
Graduates of "A. U. School of Journal
ism Get Permanent Positions.

Lawrence, Kan, May 17.-"There is
nearly the same dearth of newspaper
workers that there is of farm labor
ers," said C. NJ. Harger, director of
the School of Journalism of the Uni
versity of Kansas, in a talk here.
During the last few months I have
had applications from publishers in all
parts of the state for young men to
take places as reporters and managers
of departments. Everyone of the
graduates leaving the university news
paper classes has found good places
and several are now in responsible po-
sitions on the leading papers of the
west.
After commencement there will be
a dozen or more members of the class
looking for places during the vacation
and they are capable workers with
much practical preparation in news
paper writing. The graduating seniors
will all take permanent positions.
THE prosperity of the newspapers
has been marked and it has enabled
them to secure good employees and
pay better wages than heretofore"

Wholesale Arrests Made at Lawrence
by Inspector Ice.

Lawrence, Kan. May 17.-Warrants
were issued yesterday by the whole
sale from the sheriff's office for va
rious Lawrence merchants, charged
with violating the pure food laws. The
complainant is A. E. Ice. Those who
were arrested were Stanford & Ewing,
w. A. Dunmire, Hunzicker, and J. A.
Spaulding, grocers, for selling straw
berries in boxes not properly marked
and no covering to protect them from
flies; William Bales, fruit grower, for
selling berries in boxes not marked;
Henry Gerhardt and A. Gillian, for
having goods in their bakeries not
protected from flies; Lou Rocklund
and Harry Weyermiller, charged with
having unsanitary conditions at their
places of business. All the cases will
be tried in Judge Clark's court.
The berry boxes used by the grocers
are the same size they always have
been and the only difference is that
the law provides they must be label
led the exact size they are.

--~,v York Stock Market.

Wall ST., New York, May 17.-STOCKS-
London sent lower prices for Americans
today on the resumption of business, after
three days cessation. There was little
increase in activity in the market, how
ever, over the lately prevailing dullness.
Northern Pacific and Western Maryland
lost 1, and Chicago, Great Western pre-
ferred Ia. Reading rose 70.
A rise of nearly a point in Reading
strengthened the market but the higher
prices brought out more stock and a re-
action followed to well below the opening
figures. Union Pacific, Northwestern,
Amalgamated Copper, United States Steel,
American Sugar, Anaconda and American
Tobacco preferred sagged 1, and Reading
second preferred 112. International Har-
vester rose /, which was lost later.
Disappointment was felt that the re-
opening of foreign stock exchanges
brought no increase of activity. No in
fluence was perceptible from any news
event and the sag in prices was due to
neglect. st. Paul lost 1 and Minneapolis
and ST. Louis Ia.
Bonds We're heay.
The dullness of the market increased as
the day drew to close. None of the
usually active stocks moved widely
enough to permit even of scalping opera
tons.
