Many Small Dwellings.
The building thus far this year has
been confined chiefly to the erection of
dwellings, and it is difficult to hire a
certain class of skilled laborers and
mechanics. There are men in other
departments Of building work who are
not doing a rushing business. For ex-
ample the stone contractors could take
on more work at this time and also
some of the contractors who make a
specially of large buildings.
However, the really remarkable
feature of the building this season is
the number of dwellings which are
springing into existence. For the most
part, too, they are inexpensive homes.
In the past week building permits were
issued for 16 new dwellings, none of
which will cost more than $4,000.
On account of the large number of
small items when the month of April
comes TO a close the report Of the build
ing permits issued will be a favorable
one. The largest item in the list for
this week called for the erection OF a
two story tenement fiat building by J.

intelligent observation. but for all, is
in no sense a guide book of the Baede-

is merely the delightful narrative of
the experiences of two persons during

they saw, the people they met, the
prices they paid and the hotels where
they stopped

Castles in Spain are still for sale by
the same dear old imprisoned noble
men. In Madrid. where hope ever
blooms while the sun shines, somebody
has revived the ancient Spanish
swindle," made 1t almost as good as
new by adding a few Russian trap
pings, and is dangling the bait again in
New York. The story of the imprison-
ed nobleman who is willing to share
his fortune with any one who will pay
the expense of his trial was old when
Devery was a roundsman. It bobs up
with a new victim dangling freshly
skinned at it's tail every few months,
in spite of periodical thund erings from
the state departments of a half dozen
governments. Detectives have been
running down the perpetrators since
the civil war, and newspaper publicity
has warned thousands of prospective
victims to their salvation.-New York

Professor John E. Kirkpatrick of
Washburn college has blossomed as
an author. He has written a life of
Timothy Flint which has Just been
pany of Cleveland, Ohio, a company
that makes the publication OF beauti-
full books speciality. 1t follows there
fore that the book is handsomely
printed on hand made paper. 1t is a
large Vo. illustrated volume, well
bound and is made to sell for $3.50.
Timothy Flint was a pioneer author
missionary of the west. This biogra-
ply. the first attempt to tell the story
of his life contains a great deal of
new material pertaining to the early
history of the central western, and
southern part of the United States. The
period covered is from 1880 to 1910.
1t was during these years that the
great central section of the United
States was first opened to immigration.
AS in former ages and in the early
stages of society, men of the religious
orders were the leaders. so it proved
in the march of American civilization
beyond the Alleghenies. Such a man
was Timothy Flint and no more
significant man crossed into the great
central valleys in the first quarter of
the nineteenth century.
His early life was spent in New
England. There he began his minis
try, but the disturbances in the church
decided him to become a missionary
in the great middle west, where he en-
dured the hardships of the pioneer,
suffered financial losses, sickness. and
at times the actual want of the neces-
stiles of life. But among all the west
ern pioneers and missionaries of that
period, Timothy Flint while a part of
the life, was best able to rise from it
and leave to us a clear and critical
account of those early western days.
He held a foremost place among the
writer's of the first half of the nine
teenth century. His historical works
went through many editions and still
furnish some of our most reliable
sources of material for the study Of
that period. His popularity as a writer
is shown by the fact that his Daniel
Boone went through fourteen editions
and this and other of his stories were
republished and had a large sale in
England. He translated several works
by French authors and did much to
introduce the literature of France into
America.
Doctor Kirkpatrick has done a great
service in preserving and portraying
for us this strong and vigorous type Of
the early pioneer and missionary. He
has accumulated his material for this
biography only with the most diligent
research into family letters and pa
pers; into the records of the town
where Timothy Flint's early life was
spent; into the early records of Har-
ward College from which he gradu-
ated; into the records of the churches
with which he was connected and
those OF the missionary society under
which he went west; and lastly from
Timothy Flint's own writings

Samuel J. Crawford the war gov
ernor of Kansas has written his per-

& Co. Chicago.
General CraWfOrd's name is familiar
to all Kansans. His forthcoming book
of recollections covers his long life
spent in Kansas in the service of that
state, and his exciting experiences as
"a Genel al in the Union Army in the
operations west of the Mississippi. The
period during which the author was
War Governor" of Kansas, was made
famous by the Indian wars, and the
events of that time were thrilling in
the extreme. The commerce of the
plains was destroyed and the Indians
committed all manner of revolving
depredationS, but following these aW-
full scenes came peace, happiness, and
prosperity, and through war and
peace, turmoil and tranquility, Gen
eral Crawford has always been close
to the heart of affairs. His recollec-
tions will therefore be read with great
appreciation by all interested in the
history of the development of the West
and especially by the people of the
state with whose affairs he has been
so long and prominently connected.
It will be a valuable addition to the
history of Kansas.

indicted Packers
 Benefit by Oil
 Trust Decision

Chicago, May 17-Federal Judge Carpenter, today, gave attorneys for the 10 indicted packers one week in which to file a petition for rehear- ing of arguments on a demurrer to the government indictments in which they were charged with crininally restraining trade.
 The demurrers were overruled sev- | eral days ago. The packers demand a rehearing on the ground that the reasonable restraint of trade" in the Supreme Court decision in the Stand- ard Oil case, completely changes their case.
 Attorneys for the packers interpret the meaning that combinations in re-, straint of trade are not in themselves unlawful. It must be shown, they contend, that the restraint was un- reasonable and they declare that no such showing has been made in the case of the indicted millionaire pack CTS.
 The packers further declare that the Sherman Antitrust law is so hazy that they do not know whether they are engaged in unreasonable restraint of trade, and that this very haziness nullifies the criminal sec tion of the law.
