Old Bill ShiftleSs is again making
his yearly announcement that he is
going to leave this Internal country.
Bill says he has made up his mind
that the Almighty never intended
that decent people should live here.
Once in awhile we get a crop of
wheat, but generally man simply
looses the seed wheat he puts into the
ground. Bill put out few acres of
wheat last fall. He didn't half pre-
pare the ground and did bum job
putting it in. He didn't get very
good stand. Bill don't know where
he will go, but is going to leave. Bill
left once before. He got away a
couple hundred miles and then had
to send back to his wife'S folks for
money to come back home on. Bills
idea is to leave his wife and kids with
the old folks this summer, while he
gets a job as canvasman with circus.
This will enable him to see a lot of
country at no expense to himself and
by fall he can have his MUD made up
just where he wants to locate. He
will then also have enough money
saved up to send for his folks and
get started right. Just give me
half chance" said Old Bill, land
will show these knockers around town
here that / can cut some ice. They've
got it in for me here and won't let
me get ahead" Bill has written to
three circuses for job and in every
instance signed his name, ''Hon. Will
lam Shiftless.' Bill claims he has a
right to use the word Honorable
because he was an application for a
job before the last legislature.

Congressman Dung sends us Dill
just passed by congress which will be
of interest to many farmers who own
land along the right of way of the

bill is as follows:
That all conveyances or agreements
heretofore made by the Union Pacific

cific Railway company, or Union
Pacific Railroad Co., or the Leaven-
worth, Pawnee and Western Railroad
company, or the Union Pacific Rail
way company, eastern division, or
the Kansas Pacific Railway company,
or the successors or assigns of any of
them, of or concerning land forming

act of congress of July 1, 1862, enti-
tied IAN act to aid the construction
of a railroad and telegraph line from
the Missouri river to the Pacific
ocean and to secure to the govern
ment the use of the same for postal,
military and other purposes" and
also all conveyances or agreements
heretofore made by the Union Pacific
Railroad company, or the Union Pa
citic Railway company, or the Denver
Pacific Railway and Telegraph com
pany, or the successors or assigns of
any of them, of or concerning land
forming part of the right of way

panies granted by or held under any
act of congress, and all conveyances
or agreements confining the limits of
said right of way, or restricting the
same, are hereby legalized, validated,
and confirmed to the extent that the
same would have been legal or valid
if the land involved therein had been
held by the corporation making such
conveyance or agreement under abso-
lutte or fee-simple title.
That in all instances in which til
tie or ownership of any part of said
right of way heretofore mentioned is
claimed as against said corporation,
or either of them, or the successors
or assigns of any of them, by or
through adverse possession of the
character and duration prescribed by
the laws of the state in which the
land is situated, such adverse posses
sion shall have the same effect as
though the land embraced within the
lines of said right of way had been
granted by the United States abso-
| lutely or in fee instead of being
granted as a right of way.
Section 2. That any part of the
right of way heretofore mentioned
which has been, under the law appli-
cable to that subject, abandoned as a
right of way is hereby granted to the
owner of the land abutting thereon.
Section 3. That nothing hereinbe-
fore contained shall have the effect
to diminish said right OF way to a
less width than fifty feet on each
side of the center of the main track
of the railroad as now established
and maintained; provided, that moth
/ ing herein contained shall be taken
or construed to be recognition OF
any rights in the Union Pacific Rail-

company.

The Month of Brides
W. /. Barber.

The bard hit soul discloses and on
his winged steed rides, and sings of
blooming roses, and also blooming
brides; the latter from their bowers
in fine and brave array, outblush the
blushing flowers upon their wedding
day. With blue skies bending DER
them, no omen to annoy, they've all
the world before them, world of
light and joy. The old dame smiles
and blesses the brides through fur
tive tears, and thinks of bridal dress
es she wore in long gone years. The
old men sadly ponder on brides they
used to know in brave days way back
yonder-the days of long ago. They
have bright skies above them, the
brides who blush and bloom, and all
the world to love them, and not a
threat of gloom. l wish that every
token of joy might be fulfilled, and
not a hope be broken that gentle
bosoms thrilled; the harp of life should
never send forth doleful tune, and
peace should walk forever with blush
ing brides of June. l wish / knew
tomorrow would duplicate today,
that meier shade of sorrow
would come the young wives way;
that happiness would linger beneath
the sun and moon, and guide them
by the finger, the blushing brides of
June!-Walt Mason, Copyright.

BRYAN HALL A
SPLENDID BUILDING


The last ten days have MADE
great change in the appearance OIL
tb;nes out at Allen Academy. The
brick work on the new boys dormi-
torv is nearing completion and the
hu;lding begins to stand out in Its
8na nroportions. One is impressed
most of all with its appearance Oh
solidity and permanence. 1t is GER
tainlv a splendid structure, admirably
ADAPTED to the purposes for which it
is being erected.
The frame of the building consists
Of massive concrete columns ana
haams reinforced with nearly forty
TINS of steel rods. The floors, the
stairways, and the roof are likewise
Of reinforced concrete; indeed, there
will be no wood about the building
except in the window frames and the
doors. and hence it will be really and
truly fire-proof.
This frdmeWOrh VI SOnSAN'N
entirely encased in walls of red BRICK
thus giving the structure every ap-
pearance of brick building. Announcer
excellent feature has been obtained
bv the use of hollow, tiles for the IN,
ner portions of the walls. This metnou
of construction tends to make tne
building cool in summer and warm IN
winter.
The ground floor of Bryan Hall,
for that is the well chosen name OF
the new building, will have assem-
bled upon it toilets, hot and colo
shower baths, dressing rooms ano
steel lockers, the heating plant anu
large room for manual training. IL
addition, there will be four large
rooms on this floor which may DE-
used as bedrooms or as small CLASS
rooms. as circumstances may require
The second and third floors Will
be devoted to dormitory purposes

steam.
That this splendid building will
greatly increase the attendance and
enlarge the usefulness of Allen Acad-
envy no one can doubt. 1t gives the
school an air of permanence that will
tend to intrench it yet more firmly
in the confidence of the people. With
this new building, which ought easily
to stand half century, with an cleo
trio car line running to the very door
of the school and tieing it more close
ly with our great A. and NJ. College,
the academy ought to last, and We be-
lieve it will last, far beyond the life
time of its founders. 1t ought to be
regarded as a permanent asset oil
