TRIED TO ENJOIN SOUR OWL.
Students Routed Out Douglas County
Attorney at Midnight.

Lawrence. Kan, Feb. 21.-Students
who feared damaging stories about
them would appear in the Sour OWL
which appears about this time every
year at the university. got County At
torney j. s. Amick out of bed and
tried to induce him to secure an in
junction suppressing- the sheet. Mr..
Amick was too sleepy to care much
about who his visitors were-they got
him up after midnight-but he thinks
they were fraternity men who were
afraid of stories that might be printed.
No Injunction was issued. Mr..
Amick explained that he could only
ask for injunctions, not issue them,
and that while Judge Smart was in
town at the time he probably would
not take kindly to the idea of granting
an injunction at that hour of the
night. The students went away and
the expected issue of the Sour OWL
did not appear. Just how its sup
preston was secured has not been re-
Vealed.

RENO BRIDGES UNFRAMED.
Dynamite Used to Break Ice Jam on
Arkansas River.

Hutchinson, Kan. Feb. 21.-Reno
county bridges are practically I'M
harmed after the big ice jams on the
Arkansas river, but it took over 100
shots of dynamite and the hard work
of w. B. Harris, county engineer, and
a big force of workmen, to save them
from serious damage.
All of the bridges in Reno county
escaped damage except the Seven
teenth street structure over the Ar
kansas. This long wooden affair lost
five timbers of its piling by the huge
jam of drifting ice. The ice kept pill
ing higher and higher, and several
times, in spite of the work of the
watchers, and the numerous dynamite
explosions, the ice was piled high
as the bridge.
The real trouble caused by drifting
ice was at Seventeenth street and
Fourth avenue, where the bridges are
low. There was a little trouble at
Monroe street, but no damage was
done to the bridge, and it was con-
sidered insignificant compared to the
work at the other bridges.

TOWN ALMOST LOSES NAME.
TrOusdale Threw a Fit; Then Post
office Department Changed Decision

Trousdale, Kan, Feb. 21.-The
town of Trcusdale, came near having
its name changed by order of the
postoffice department but word has
been received that the catastrophe
had been averted. The place was
named Trousdale in honor of the man
who owned the land on which the
town was laid out. A number of
business places were located here and
some Of them used the name of the
town in their business title, charter
had been granted for the State bank
of Trousdale, and the name had been
established in various ways, but when
a postoffice was asked for, the de-
partment at Washington dug around
and found there was another Trous-
dale in the state and that there was
an opening for confusion.
1t seems that Mr.. Trousdale also
had some land near Newton, and
sort of community center or neigh
borhood was known by that name
However, it was an inland point and
had no postoffice, and the depart
ment consented to the names being
adopted here.

Benefit KANSANS
House Passes Bill to Pension
Indian War Veterans.
Two Regiments of Kansas Cav
airy Are Affected.

Washington, Feb. 21.-The bill
which passed the house pensioning the
survivors of Indian wars affects the
Eighteenth and Nineteenth Kansas
cavalry. Each member thereof now
alive will, according TO the bill, if
finally passed by the senate and
signed by the president, receive $20 a
month.
N the summer of 1867 four COM
panies of cavalry were organized and
mustered into the United States serv-
ice for period of four months. They
were called the Eighteenth Kansas
cavalry. They Immediately got into
action AID fought several battles with
the Indians. They sustained the
frightful ravages of cholera and sew
eral of them were killed. They were
honorably mustered out after their
four months service ard returned to
their homes
Fought for Six Months.
A year later the Nineteenth Kan
sas cavalry. a full regiment CT twelve
companies of men, were mustered in
to the United States service at the
suggestion of The war department for
a period of six months. They were
enrolled some time in October, 1863.
They conducted a winter campaign in
what was then the Indian Territory,
and as far as Texas and in western
Kansas, in the campaign against the
Cheyennes, Arapahoes, Kiowas and
COmanches. 1t was an extremely Sc
we're and bitter winter They were
personally complimented by all of
their commanders. They received the
appreciation of every officer under
whom they served. They entered ur-
told hardships They bivouacked in
the snow, and in an atmosphere below
zero. during that terrible winter.
Similar bills to pension these KAN
sas Indian fighters have been pre-
scented to congress for many years
past but none has ever passed either
the house or senate. The final pass
age of this piece of legislation in the
senate is predicted to occur at very
short time.

years on the Kansas national forest,
and which is certain to become exter-
minated in the near future when the
lands in the forest are opened to set
tlement unless provision is made for
its protection. The antelope, which is
now in greater danger of extermina-
ton than any other species of big
game native TO the United States, is
rapidly disappearing with the settle
ment of arid lands in the west, and it
is very important that some provision
be made for preserving this species.

Chicago, Feb. 21.-Large mining
companies today notified local coal
dealers that after April 1 the number
of sizes of hard coal will be reduced
to four. There now are ten sizes 1t
is planned to have one size about like
egg coal for use in furnaces, one like
nut coal for use in ranges, a
third the size of pea or buck
wheat, called steam, and a fourth
comparable to the present size
called birdseye. Coal men say the
number of sizes has caused waste be-
cause some sizes will suddenly lag on
sales, forcing the sale of large amounts
of them at prices below cost.

and yet happy people and their chill

growing state.
Even Mayor Philip forgave him for
opposing any appropriations for state
