Lawrence, Kan, Sept. 24.-There is

a nephew of John Brown, the pioneer
whose illustrious exploits have been
revived by the recent dedication of the
Osawatomie battlefield. C. H. Brown,
direct descendant of the martyred
hero, does not particularly enjoy the
notoriety which his distinguished kins-
man is receiving. He defends his
uncle's memory, however, while adj
hitting that perhaps he was a fanatic

NoRDMARK CASE DECEMBER s.
Supreme Court Hearing Set in Triple
Killing.

BeIleville, Kan, Sept. 24.-The su-
preme court has set December as
the date to hear the Nordmark murder
case, which was appealed from the dis
trict court of this county by the de-
PENDANTS attorneys, August Nordmark
of Kansas City and David Ritchie of
Salina. The case was first tried in
the May term of court here, when
Nordmark was found guilty of murder
in the second degree and sentenced to
the penitentiary for IA years.
Some time ago the supreme court
fixed Nordmark's bail at $1,000 which
he furnished, and he was released af-
ter having been a prisoner in the coun-
ty jail ever since he was arrested for
the crime last March. Since his re-
lease he has again taken up his abode
in his hut on the river bank near the
scene of the crime.
Should the supreme court uphold the
decision of the lower court Nordmark
will be taken to the penitentiary to
begin serving his sentence. Should the
supreme court set aside the verdict of
the lower court the case will have to
be retired in the district court here.
The crime of which Nordmark was
found guilty was the triple killing on
March 26 of Alex Lindahl, a neighbor
of Nordmark's, and his two children
while they were fishing from motor
boat near Scandal

When the new line is completed the
Union Pacific will have an unbroken

. In private conversation with a num-
Der of citizens, the surveyors said that
SO lar as they knew, they were work
ing for the Union Pacific. At least
that company seems to be paying them
so they suppose it is employing them
one of the party said that it was a
fact that even surveyors working on a
line as rule knew little about it.
They had instructions to run a line a
certain place, establish the best pos
s1ble grade and the stakes. No one
ever tells them further than that. They
never know when it is to be built or
whether it is a bluff or a reality. But
they are certain, it seems, that the
Union Pacific is behind the work de-

SIMPLEST MAP YET ISSUED.
Denver & Rio Grande Gets Out a
Folder for the People.

A year ago there emanated from the
passenger department of the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad a folder giving
the time of trains. with notes descrip-
tive of the points of interest. the
scenery, and the Industrial and COM
mercial Importance of the cities locat-
ed on its line, together with informa-
ton regarding attitudes and popula-
tons. This folder, at once so simple
and understandable was such a mark
ed improvement over the puzzling
leaflets usually handed the traveller
that it was received with instant favor
and attracted much attention. Its draw
back was an awkward fold, and it was
minus a map. All this has now been
remedied, new descriptive folder,
with a splendid coast to coast map and
a collapsible fold that simply falls to-
gether, having made its appearance a
day or two ago. The Rio Grande now
enjoys the distinction of issuing the
simplest and most readily understood
time table of any railroad in the
United States. May its example be fol-
lowed by other lines.
