Mr. Benson is KC'od citizen and we would regret lo Ita.ru that he did not intend to return. It was announced the last of the week that General Booth, comnwwider and organizer of the Salvation Army, would' pass through Hutchinson on Monday night Bud would make a lew minutes talk from the train. Quite a crowd gathered at the depot, but General' Booth did not. Earlier word had been sent to the local post that he had obliged to take a different route.

It was announced in the News that night but few had heard it. Commissioner Miskimmen and Fred Carpenter, city engineer, attended the meeting at W'cliita Saturday called to consider the advisibliity of commenc ing litigation for the purpose of preventing the Colorado ditch companies from draining the Arkansas river to such extent that it 1b rendered dry or nearly so here the greater part of the year. Unly about forty were present. An attorney from Kingman named Ashbaugh was most active in recom mending 8iiiits to be commenced. The lire alarm awoke many citizens of Hutchinson about 1:1.5 Sunday morn ing.

many were brave enough to brave the chilly air and go and see about the fire, however. The fire was in the roof of a house of four rooms on the corner of Eighth and Maple Streets belonging to and occupied by a couple of Sweedish bachelors named Elmore. It burned the roof off the upper two rooms, but wlwt furniture there was, was mostly saved. The building was insured so toe loss will not be great. A Santa Fe employe was brought to this city from Ellinwood Saturday where he had been very seriously injured.

He was handling a crowbar unloading rails when a rail fell on the upper end so that it caused the lower end to 11 up and strike him in the head He was thought dead when first picked up but later rallied. His name is given as Sant Pride and he had no relatives or acquaintances here. He was taken on to the Santa Fe hospital at Topeka on Saturday. The city council Monday night passed a resolution against the agitation commenced in Wichita to prevent the Western ditch companies from draining the Arkansas. In view of the fact that this portion or country was expected to lend some assistance to it, it is considerable of a set tck.

Personal Interests in the city cauncil may have conduced to this result, but it nevertheless seems to be true from the best we can learn that the weight of the law is in favor of the Colorado people.

A Sliver Assessor. A peculiar thing occurred in the city ciuncil Monday night. They elected a silver man, Mr. Sol Raff, formerly in the dry goods business and well known here, as citv assessor. This in view of the fact that it is the first straight re publican council in years and one elected on straight partisan lines, is cause for surprise among some of tlie old liners, who are "spitting and tear ing out fur" about it.

Raff had Eve votes to commence with and Btood at that for twenty ballots Then he got the one more necessary to elect. The Marshal Stumped. The city marshal is in much trouble to know what to do with a young man by the name of Dick Rldgeway. Some weeks ago he was taken before the probate judge and tried for his sanity but the jury decided he was not a fit subject for the insane asylum and should be sent to the asylum for the feeble minded. It has been shown that the statute governing the subjects for that asylum limits the age to those younoer than He appears to be growing worse and his mother with whom be livej.

has no control over him. He wanders around in the alleys frightening women and children with his foolish aud obscene antics. It is said the cause of his condition was an in jury when he was a child. Anyway be is a question mark the city does not know how to deal with. To Cure Constipation forever.

The Chinese are not, the writer avers, the simple and childlike folk generally supposed. On the American continent and among the American people, where Uey are without a vote or even a desire for citizenship, Chinese politi-caljbosses succeed in defeating justice, retard the passage of laws, and add ma- terially to the financial burden of our citizens and tax payers.
