The Story of

XXXIV.-KANSAS
W vUAY back

lis SsSl S5Sb plorer, is re-
WsV&zs SsZlSY puted TO have
Y N3sSs penetrated to
smlsacs Kansas in
search of mythical wealthy In
dian tribe. 1t was not again Wis
tied, however, by white men until
nearly one hundred and seventy
five years later, when the
French In Louisiana sent out an
expedition to investigate the re-
mote portions of what was then
their territory. Most of the pres
emit State OF Kansas was a part
of the Louisiana Purchase and
so passed from French hands
to the United States in 1908.
A small additional part was
later added in 1850. being ceded
by Texas.
The Lewis and Clark party
traversed this region in 1904,
and Lieutenant Pike passed
through Kansas two years later.
Kansas history really becomes |:
interesting in the middle of the !:
century, when the slavery agita- !
ton gave ii the name of Bleed /:
ing Kansas" 1t had been an an |.
organized territory since 1921, !;
at which time it had been con- (;
sidered a portion of the Terri !:
tory of Missouri. According to
the Missouri Compromise, if
Kansas became a state it could !:
not be a slavery state. The op- !;
position of the South was so !:
strong the Kansas Nebraska hill =:
was passed in 1854, making this :
vital question optional with the I
inhabitants in each proposed +:
state. With this law In force, !;
the two factions actively started !:
colonizing Kansas. Immigrants
from the slave states of Arkan-
sas and Missouri Immediately ;
founded Leavenworth. The Mas
sachusetts Emigrant Aid soci- :
ETY. sent out anti-slavery settlers,
who founded Lawrence, Topeka ]
and other towns. Conflict be- !:
tween these two parties broke .
out at once. and it was only put /:
down by the Intervention Of fed :
eral troops. The Northern set
tiers came in such numbers that
they soon were In the majority !
and in 1851 an anti-slavery con.
stitutioD was adopted, so Kansas
was admitted to the Union in
that year.
The political dispute over Kan
sas was the cause of the forma- !
ton Of the present Republican
party.

on the spot. 1t is necessary to enforce
this rule strictly because at first It was
found that children would run outside

might be kept at home Intentionally if
there was a chance Of the meal being
sent to the house.
That these children, to whom none of
the responsibility for the war can be
traced, stand in great need of assistance
is obvious. Most Of them are pale, list

OF which time the children are examined

money limits the work of the American
Friends Service committee to the very
neediest cases.

LOWE LIVES TO
MANS BRAVERY
Ship Wrecked, Line Carried
Ashore Saves All.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. ITO the her
oism Of q member Of the crew Of the
steam coasting schooner klamath.
wrecked early Saturday on the rocky
Mendocino County coast line at Delmar,
the nineteen passengers and thirty -four
members of the crew owe their lives.
When, shortly after 2 o'clock, the yes
sci, which had been drifting helplessly
before an eighty ile-an-hour gale,
hit the rocks near Delmar, sailor vol
unteered to attempt to carry line
ashore. With two lines tied to his waist
he jumped into the angry waters which
were rolling in mountainous waves over
the ship. Anxiously the nineteen pas
sengers, who were by this time huddled
together at the rail, watched him fight
his way through the surf to the coast
line, $500 feet distant.
A breeches buoy was quickly rugged
and in accordance with the tradition OF
the sea, the women and children went
ashore first.

My Dear President Burns
cannot refrain from expressing to you my
great satisfaction upon learning that the Gener-
al Education Board has contributed the sum of
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars toward
a million dollar endowment for the University
of Notre Dame am glad too that you and
your associates have shown the vision that you
have in the conduct of the University. Your
plans to appeal for two million dollars deserves
the hearty commentator of not only your
constituencies but of the educational world.
The growth of Notre Dame and the high stand
ards of its work fully justify the appeal which
you are making. | feel perfectly confident that
the campaign will be entirely successful 1t is
scarcely necessary for me to say to you that
you have my best wishes in the enterprise
Believe me, Sir, with high esteem,
Very sincerely yours,
