PREVENT fNsTRANcE MERGER
Enterprise Stockholders Start Pro-
ceedings I'm Wyandotte Court

Suit was brought in the Wyan-
dotte county district court yester-
day to prevent the consolidation OF
the Anchor Life Insurance Company
Of Kansas with the Farmers Life
Insurance Company of Colorado. The
petition also asks an accounting and
a receiver. Judge H. ]. Smith Will
hear the applications Saturday.
The Anchor Life Insurance COM
pany was organized seven years ago
by the late John Briedenthal. 1t
was capitalized for 100000 and
shares were sold at $500 each. The
company now has l " million dol
lars in policies. 1t was organized to
insure the farmers in the grain belt.
The petition filed yesterday is
brought by nine citizens OF Enter
prise, who own $4,000 of the stock
of the Anchor. They charge that
the principal stock was bought up
by the directors of the Anchor and
sold to the Farmers Life, and that
the merger thus perfected was with
out vote of the other stockholders
and that they do not desire to take
stock in the Farmers Life. They
say that the directors Of the Anchor
Life acted purely in their own In
terests in planning and perfecting
the merger. and that unless 1t is
prevented by the courts a great
hardship will be the result to the
smaller stockholders.
Among the officers of the Farm
ers' Life is the governor of Color
ado. The head officers of the An
chor Life are on the Kansas side.

BAND BILL RECEIVED
- FAVORABLY IN SENATE

The senate committee of the
whole has passed the bill which
provides that Kansas towns may ap-
propriate not to exceed 5000 a year
for the maintenance of band which
is to give concerts in public places.
AS the bill originally was prepared
it provided that the appropriation
could be made only in towns where
a park is maintained, but so many
towns have asked for the passage
of the bill that practically all the
limitations except the $500 appro-
priation limit have been removed.
At the present time, statute
allows such appropriations to sup
port a band in first and second class
cities having a population larger
than Abilene. Dickinson county leg
islators have been asked by local
people to work for measure which
shall remove this restriction and
petitions already have been sent 10
Representative Lamb and Senator
Howe. 1t is likely that measure
agreeable to the many band enthus-
lasts here will be passed.

and do so at once.

and peculiarly on the blood-it puri-
fies, enriches, and revitaliEes IL and

WATER EXTENSION WOULD

This section OF Kansas In COM

porous. but for all that there are
many unemployed men. During the
last few months many have applied
al the city hall. the court house and
AZ other places for work. At the
present time no public work being
carried on In Abilene provides em-
ployment for any considerable num-
Der OF laborers. In the event OF the
city extending the water mains to
the Catholic orphanage grounds,
employment would be given to
good sized force. One plan which
has been proposed is for the extern

Olive TO Kinney on Thirteenth. north
as far as Fourteenth, then west TO
Buckeye. The main now extends to
Fourteenth on Buckeye, or within
short distance of the end OF the

through the snow as far as Kansas
City. From there he expects TO re-
turn TO New, York without delay
Mr.. Hammond reached here this
morning from the west. He struck
the first snow, he said, about rs
miles west OF Abilene. The heaviest
fall OF snow was between salina
and Abilene. Mr.. Hammond is In the
foundry business at Albany.
He left Albany In June OF last
year with six other members Of his
family. They went south. through
Georgia and Texas and then on west
to Los Angeles, making the trip In
2S days. Carrying big tent and
plenty OF other camping equipment
with them, they put up their own
hotel ct night and ate their meals
in shady spots along their route. Mr..
Hammond left the rest OF his family
at Los Angeles, November IA, and
started on his return journey. He
went up the Sacramento valley, and
returned by way OF the Sierra Ne
vadas and across the desert to Col
orado. He took the Golden Belt
from Denver here. He had an inter-
esting story of his trip. When climb
ing Needle Peak, in the Sierra Ne
vadas, Mr.. Hammond says, he came
very near plunging over a cliff and
thousands of feet down the canyon.
"The turn was q very sharp one,
says Mr.. Hammond, "and was
going about eighteen miles an hour
when / was upon 1t. jammed thel
brakes down hard and stopped short

a long trip, Mr.. Hammond was tell
ing a group. of motorcar folks at the
Tiff garage this morning. In cross
ing the Nevada desert, Mr.. Ham,
mond several times came close to
running short of gasoline and oil,
and water. too. He paid q dollar sat
one stop for enough water to fill
his radiator. Twenty-Five miles be-
fore reaching Austin, Ney., the en-
CINE ate up the last Of the gasoline.
It was night. SO Mr.. Hammond pat
up the top and side curtains and
started out to walk to Austin. reach
ing there about 2 o'clock In the
morning. There he obtained some
gasoline, 35 cents a gallon, and a
man to drive him back to where
his ear Was! The car hire was only
$40, Mr. Hammond remembers.
If he goes to California again jp
Ills car, Mr.. Hammond will come by
way of the Golden Belt, he says, rs
it is the best road. On the entire
trip Mr.. Hammond had no trouble

"The worst of it." she continued,
shaking hands with Pat and kissing
me, 'is that we want and want for
things - we sieken and almost die
with longing and then just when we
don't want them any more they come
to us" Then Kitty, feeling, perhaps,
