Mr.. Elder created some excitement
in the house today by rising to a ques-
ton of personal privilege and reading
two passages from the Sunday issue of
the Kansas City Times. They state
that during the passage of the Elder
bill to make gold and silver legal ten
der in Kansas, Elder used his favorite
tactics of shutting off debate when
his side had finished talking. Also
that in order to make time he had in
structed the sergeant at arms TO turn
the hands of the clock back 80 min
utes. He appealed to the house if this
was true. The Republicans assured
him that he had been unusually fair
Saturday night and that they had not
seen him turn the hands of the clock
back. Showa1ter knew that the clock
hands were thirty minutes late but
that did not reflect on the speaker.
The bill creating the circuit court
of Shawnee county was signed by the
governor today. Governor Humphrey
this morning promptly appointed Hon
J. B. Johnson of Topeka Judge of the
court A more fitting selection could
not have been made and it will meet
with universal approval both from the
bar and the people

BACHELORS VERSUS GIRLS.
AthoI Young Women Form Opposition
to Anti Wedding Club.

Athol Kan, March 9.-The bache-
lors and young men of Athol have
formed an anti-matrimonial club and
are giving the girls a wide berth.
They claim that the high cost of liv
ing has made marriage next to i'm
possible and they propose to keep
away from it. A line of $40 is to be
imposed on all who violate the terms
of the agreement or are seen in COM
pany of a woman.
1t is said that the girls here are
now going to form a real matrimonial
club and import a few eligible gen.
tlemen. This last move is to be
played as their high trump card and
is thought one or two applications will
bring the men to their senses.
