TOPEKA, February 11, 1901.. Special Correspondence. One of the most important measures passed by the present Legislature is Senator Miller's good roads bill. The Senate consumed considerable time discussing the law which was finallv parsed without and i-t-nt, to the House. In tn is onnection one of the quickest legislative actions of the session was recoraec.

ne diii was messaged to the House which was at the time considering a road improve ment bill presented by Kepresentative Sims of Shawnee county. The Miller bill was ira mediately taken up following the Sims bill and within twenty minutes after the time the Miller bill passed the Senate it had passed in the Flouse by. a big majority and was ready for the signature of the Governor. Representatives Stavely and Heber- lmg, of Osage, pushed the Miller bill through the House. This new law authorizes Couuty Commissioners to levy a two mill tax for road improvements.

It provides that fifteen percent of the total cost of the road improvement may be levied against the property which adjoins the road improved. In this way the law provides for the distribution of the extensions and does not make road improvement burdensome as some of the improvised measures would have done. The Miller bill is conceded b' all of the advocates of the good roads pro position to be one of the most equitable which has been presented or passed by anjT of the good roads associations of the western states. Representative Stavely's bill providing for a change of the terms of court in Osaere couuty has passed the two houses and is ready for the Gov-ernor'to sign. This makes the terms of court in that county one week later, bucdoes not effect the March term.

The legislature has also passed a bill authorizing the Board of County Commissioners of Osage county to compromise an old judgment entered in 1897, due to a forfeited recognizance. This will dispose of au old 'problem which has confronted the county board and clear up the record. The chances are that by the time this letter reaches the public the legislature will have considered a railroad bill. The Miller bill, so far as can be ascertained, has been slaughtered to a large extent and features which are of more benefit to the railroad than to the shippers haveSbeen incorporated. It is generally understood that the measure which is likely to come up for final consideration does not carry with it the benefits to the patrons of railroad companies that the Miller bill contem plated.

Senator Miller has made a constrained effort to have incorporated in the proposed law the features of bis bill which were indorsed by every class of business enterprises in the state, but was not able to succeed fully. This was due to the fact that the general committee from the House and Senate, appointed to draft a railroad bill, was made up largely of lawyers and men who' were not engaged in the business heavy shipping- The cattle men. who have long clamored for some recog nition in this direction, seem to have been ignored. However, if the com- i mittee bill reaches the House and Sen- i ate. the friends of the Miller measure hope to be able to procure amendments which will not altogether lose sight! of the interests of those who do the heaviest shipping in this state.

Michael Ure who was burned by an explosion of powder blasting in No. 3 coal shaft several weeks ago has recovered sufficiently to be able to be down town for the first time Tuesday.

Mr. Ure was very severely burned on the hands, face and back, but the attending" physician, Dr. D. N. Goldman, says there will not be a scar on his face hands, nor a stiff joint on any of his to ten th taie of his awful ac cident.

The Enterprise is glad Mr. Ure is nble to be around agaifl and will soon be at work. When the Belgian hare business was at its height and fabulous prices were being paid for high pedigreed H. Tngraham drove to one of the "Hare Depots" in Kansas City and after hitching a $200.00 horse in front walked in. A polite clerk walked up and asked him if there was anything he could do for him.

Mr. Ingraham said: "Well, I just dropped in to see if I can trade you my horse, buggy and harness for a rabbit, that is, if yon can give me time on the difference The clerk looked him over and evidently saw the joke for he said: "Oh goon!" And Mr. I. went on. On account of the crowded condition of our paper this week we are un- able to give a detailed write-up of the Ifrew Ruiisou building on the corner of desire to say, however, that the build ing is completed and now occupied by C.

II. McBurney. The building of itself is one of the finest in Osage county and one which would certainly be a credit to a town much larger than Burlingame. It is a two-story structure, buittof the very best quality of pressed brick and finished off inside in yellow pine, hard oiled aod varnished. The wood work was done by W.

I. Mc-Cu ten eon, assisted by Alex. Mavis, and the painting by Isaac Peart Mr. McBurney occupies the entire building, about 4,000 square feet of floor room in He has it fitted up with all the modern conveniences, including a cash carrier system from each department in the store. On the first floor will be found the dry goods, notion and shoe departments, also gents furnishing goods.

On the second floor, carpets. rugs, oil cloth, curtains, millinery, boys clothing, trunks and valises, cloaks and capes, ladies' furnishings, shirt waists, etc. Mr. McBurney ha9 greatly increased his stock in every line and as soon as it is all in and shaped ap, and the four large windows decorated he will undoubtedly have one. of the prettiest stores in Kansas.

Mr. Rulison can justly feel proud of his fine building-, Mr. McBurney of his excellent stock, and the people of Burlingame generally ought to be proud of both building anu stock progress at th3 M. E. church.

Rev.lanta Fe and Topetca avenues. Wtj Branch Offices: Burlington, Ottawa, Garnett. Poem How the Senate Saloon in Topeka Got Smashed. Mrs. Nation with her hatchet.

Marched down tne street one day; When a saw her coming. He wondered what he'd say. But 'twas not long tyefore she stopped. And raised her Tomahawk And said: "You get, my friend. I haven't time to talk." Then she went inside the joint.

And began to chop and smash; When the make you pay For this work, all in cash." When quick'she waived her Tamaha-wk, Par. far above her bead; When the jointist saw that motion, He cast a look of dread. And grabbing up his pocket-book. He ran down street like fury And I don't believe he slowed his gait. Until he reached Missouri.

While swiftly beating his retreat He gave such a fearful yelp; That, the people standing on the street. Thought Mrs. Nation had his scalp. When Mrs. Xation smashed the Senate, She made a case quite pointed; If she did not scalp the Senator.

She left him all unjointed. Feb'y. 12. A. Frixch, Grand Haven.
