A cable, containing one hundred
eighty pairs of wires and weighing
nearly two tons, was hung along Main
street last week by the Passumpsic
Telephone company. This cable ex-
tends east from the corner of Main
and Second streets while a smaller
cable of one hundred twenty pairs ex.
tends west from that point. These
cables will take the place of the other
overhead wires with the exception of
two pairs of long distance copper.
The use of wires running underground
will be discontinued as much trouble
has been caused by water running in
to the conduits and freezing.

The value OF the endowment fund
of the University Of Kansas is less
than that Of other institutions In the
state. The Agricultural College has a
fund OF $500. 900; the Normal School,
s27o, O0O; Washburn, $2l0, 600; Ottawa,
SI75, 900; Baker, $4,000 and the
University of Kansas, sl51, 900. In
other words, the. University of Kansas
has very little permanent income and
must depent almost entirely Oh direct
appropriations.

Missouris Burned Capitol.

"A stroke of tightening out Of the
winter sky has solved the problem
Of a new state capitol for Missouri.
The FIRE which destroyed the ancient
pile at Jefferson City came as;an
epportuns moment. The state
Legislature which IS now in session
is confronted with an emergency
which Eecessitates providing TEN
porary quarters efewhere-in
Jefferson City if a building large
enough can be found. 1t also
makes necessary immediate provision
for new permanent building, and
while 1t is regrettable that Missouri
should suffer this financial loss it is
fortunate that 1t came at time
when the legislature can act with
the least possible delay. Few wide
awake Missourians will shed any
tears over the blackened mass that
smolders on the site of the state
capitol. 1t will only bring to a
more immediate realisation the
hopes and dreams of those who
have been in favor Of the erection
Of a new state capitol and the
aband oment of the old one.
The fate that has overtaken the
Missouri state house was predicted
in the recent campaign fer con-
stitutional amendment providing for
new structure. 1t was pointed
out that the seat of government was
not nreproof and that there was no
efficient means for fire Sighting at
Jefferson City. Happily most of
the important records and state
papers were saved, SO that the
business Of government can 20 on
without serious embarrassment.
Governor Hadley had remarkable
courage and presence Of mind in
handling the situation. Owing to
his direction and. insistence many
records of the various departments
we're rescued.
When the amendment to the con-
stitu'ion providingfor new IS, ooo,-
600 capitol was submitted to the
people last fall it was defeatsd
because of the 0vershadowing
intensity of the fight on the
amendment providing for pro-
hibition. The campaign in the
latter case carried all the other
amendments to defeat. Thee il
little doubt that the people OF
Missouri have been in favor of a
new state house for years. Blu,
whether they have been or not, they
must now provide it; and that is the
consoling thought in the face of the
ruin at Jefferson City. The legis-
latols may be sure that they will be
supported in taking the preliminary
steps toward the erection of new
capitol on a scale that will ieaec
credit upon the state. Missouri
ought to have one of the fines
capitols in the United States. Tha
is the spirit which should animate
those who must now face tht
responsibility Of providing a new
structure. Missouri is rich, PROUD
and ambitious. No better adver
tisement of the state could be made
at this time than the widespread
announ ement that it has determined
to repair its loss on a scale
of splendid magni6cence. Whethe
the new capitol will be erected a
Jefferson City or at some other city
of the state is a matter to he de-
ter mined. kansas City Journal.

ADDRESS OF COL. r. NJ. HOWARD

Grave of Every Soldier Was Deco

ESSAY on "EYents of 1851"

OfaVe Oh Every soldier was Deco
Grated. Medal Awarded for Best
Essay on events of 1864"
The threatening weather on We'd
nesday in no wise dampened the ar
dor of those in Dawson who, with
eacn recurring twenty-sixth Of April,
fondly keep watch by the graves of
the confederate dead
The exercises and decorations this
year were more elaborate than usual.
Mrs. J. NJ. Griggs and her committee
with loving hands had transformed
the auditorium of the court house,
palms and ferns making a beautiful
background for the artistic arrange
ment of confederate colors, mingled
with the stars and stripes. The pro-
gram arranged by Mrs. J. S. Lowrey
was highly pleasing, and received
with enthusiasm by the audience,
each number so we'll rendered adding
a part to the splendid tribute to the
heroes of the sixties. The stores
were closed, and a large audience
was present.
Dawson had in the speaker for
this occasion an interesting person
atty in the aged veteran, Col. R. NJ
Howard of Columbus. He seemed in
no sense a part of the so-called new
south" of the twentieth century. In
a suit of confederate gray he stood
amid the ashes of the old south
looking out with breaking heart up
ON proud land mourning in her
desOlation He saw again helpless
women and children fleeing in terror
from the ruthless invaders. He liV-
ed over the horrors of reconstruct
ton, and with quivering lips and
blazing Indignation hurled anathe-
mas at those who had laid waste his
loved southland.
1t was impossible for the audi
ence to enter fully into the spirit
that stirred the speaker. He jests
at scars who never felt a wound. j"
The rough setting maTred to some
extent the gem of eloquence, pathos
and tender word painting, but those
who had ears to hear" gathered
many beautiful pearls of thought.
An interesting feature of the exer-
cises was the awarding of a media
offered by the Daughters of the Con.
federacy for the best paper on The
Events of 1864" Mr.. James Dis.
nuke of Graves was the fortunate
winner.

$4,000 FIRE IN LEARY.
Boyd Co.'S. Electric Light Plant and
Gin and Grist Mill DESTROYED.

News was received in Dawson ear
ly Friday morning of the destruction
by fire on Thursday night of the
electric light plant and gin and grist
mill owned by the Boyd Co. in Leary.
The fire occurred after the plant
had been shut down at IL o'clock
and its origin is not known, though
it is thought to have accidentally
caught. The loss is about $4,000,
with insurance amounting to $4,000.
Besides lighting the stores and
other enterprises of the Boyd Co. the
plant furnished street lights for the
town of Leary.
