Attorney General Little received a let ter today from E. S. Ellis of Concordia asking his opinion about the Master Plumbers' Benefit association. The writer says that the organization was made to control the business of dealers in plumbing supplies aud that those who are not members of the association can not buy from wholesale houses and that he has letters to prove the facts. The attorney general hold that 6uch an organization comes under the pro- vision of the Kansas trust law and that the members are liable to criminal pros ecution. He says: If you cannot vourself i procure this evidence if you will furnish me the letters referred to 1 will set on foot an investigation of this matter and if 1 discover that any of the parties are engaged in this trust I shall at once order the county attorney to commence a prosecution and I shall give all the assistance in my power that he may crush out these unholy combines that are organizing in our state." This is the largest of the plumbers' or ganizations and has 10,000 members. There are thirty-five Kansas firms who are members. The last meeting was held at Lawrence, May 3 4. The state officers are: President, James Foley, Leaven worth; vice president, J. II. Beasley, Pittsburg; secretary, F. W. Doane, Law rence; treasurer, G. W. Searles, Atchi son. C. J. Prescott of the firm of Prescott & Allen of this city said, in talking about the organization: "Several years ago the plumbing busi ness in the west was in a demoralized condition. It was principally in the hands of men who were not practical plumbers and who knew nothing about sanitary plumbing. That is what called this organization into existence. Any one can become a member who passes a satisfactory examination in proof that he is competent to do a sanita'ry job of plumbing." CALLED HER A FOOL And Wouldn't Let Her Go to See Her 31 other. Melissa Welchel has applied to the district court for a divorce from her hus band Calvin A. Welchel. She says they were married at Concordia, Kansas, March 26, 1893. She says he has called her a fool and refused to allow her to go to see her mother. When she did go to see her mother he drove her home with a club. She also says he has failed to support her and she wants a divorce and the custody of their six months old baby. J. B. Furry read a paper on "The Par doning Power" bafore the Saturday Night club at its last meeting. fTn o i h 1 1 Medium and Fine TfiMI KAN3. AVE.

IO- 3 YARDS OF BEAUTIFUL TO CAPTURE THE RIVER. Sanders a "Journal Reporter That Be tbe Next Move. Will The Sander3 camp at Leavenworth is located just south of the fort in a shady little valley. It is much prettier than the one they had at Topeka, but the men say they had rather be- here although they are now getting three meals a day. There have been several deserters, in cluding the banjoist, and the army now numbers only 312. A State Journal re porter visited the camp Saturday even ing and gave the men the first intima tion that Judge Foster could not hear their case for twenty days, and that Dis trict Attorney Perry would endeavor to have them liberated. They were wild with joy and yelled themselves almost hoarse. "I have been expecting it," said Sanders, "and if they turn us loose we will probably capture the river tfiis time. I have been trying to buy an old steamboat here, the 'Belle of Brownville,' but they want if 2,000 for her and I shall probably go to Kansas City and see if I cannot get another steamboat that I hear is idle there. We have men who know how to run it. There is no danger that we shall tackle a train here." The reporter visited the camp again Sunday, but fouud no change in the situ ation. There were several visitors there and some of the ladies insisted on meet ing Sanders, who i3 quite a ladies' man. Some of the town boys were at the camp and beat the "arinv" nine at a game of I base ball. When not entertaining the ladies Sanders spent his time with a deck of gilt edged cards. He boards at the National hotel down town and is rapidly acquiring aristocratic habits, not getting up some mornings until nine or ten o'clock. A day's rations for the army consists of 415 pounds of beef, 352 pounds of bread, 82 of coffee, 45 of beans, 45 of sugar, 32 of salt, 13 of soap, 12 ounces of pepper, 5 bushels of potatoes, and one cord of wood. The army hopes to move by Wednes day, if released, and if it cannot secure a steamboat will try to get the pontoons that belonged to the old bridge. "How about your 420 suits for $20,000 damages each against the Missouri Paci fic?" "Oh, that was a great big bluff," said Sanders; "still if they don't let us go, we'll file them, yet." OVER EXERTION Knocks O n t a Kicyolist Who TVr Maklnj; a Record. Arthur Murphy, Philip Eastman, John Johnson, Charles Downing and Ed Walker made a run to Carbondale Sun day morning on their bicycles. They went to VVakarusa in fifty minutes. Ar thur Murphy and Philip Eastman set the pace. When just this side of Wakarusa Murphy's wheel got the best of him and he ran into a large boulder, breaking the wooden rim of the bicycle and land ing the rider in a "sitting posture" on the side of the road. On the way back Ed. Walker became fatigued and when found was lying in the road suffering from chills. A German farmer fed him hot milk and applied hot irons to nis feet. The chills were stopped after a short time and Walker was brought into the city in a buggy. The rival base ball teams at the state house played a game Saturday after noon. It took ten innings to decide the game, and in the last inning the west wing team scored a run and won the game. wi.U ehe.p hoe. wne yo money.

The vocal department of the college was somewhat set back by the sudden departure of Miss Hallie Walker, who is now Mrs. W. H. Cochrane of Mercer, Penn. There was also some unavoidable de lay in getting the new teacher. It may be said for Mrs. Soibert that she has ac complished a great deal by her energetic work.

Brown and Private William Grier, of the Topeka division of the Salvation Army, were arrested in Kansas City Saturday night by Policeman Meluney on the charge of obstructing the street. The Star says of the case: "The three enthusiastic followers of General Booth went down to the State Line to convert some of the frequenters of the gambling .houses and pool rooms. One had a banjo, another a guitar and the third a strong pair of lungs. They took a stand in the middle of State Line street with the E. Fox & Co. 'a fake lot tery shop on the Kansas side and a saloon on the Missouri side. Five minutes after the meeting was opened Clay Maltby's pool hall was almost deserted and the crowd blocked the street, but Patrolman Meluney came along and broke up the meeting by arresting the three men. At the James street station they made things merry for the other prisoners and police guards by shouting and singing until they were finally released on their own recognizance to appear Monday morning to answer to the charge of obstructing the streets." LIKE A "SHIVAREE." Washburn Students Make a Terrible NuUe Just For Ftl u. There was a "rough house" at Wash burn college Saturday evening, aud sev eral of the people living in the vicinity lost considerable sleep as a result of it. If Hank Lindsey's police had been out there they would probably have fled in terror, for a more unearthly noise would be hard to produce. - All this "celebration" was at the home of Martin Mohler, 1526 College avenue, but not by Mr. Mohler's consent. ' The senior class of Washburn college was entertained by Miss Laura Mohler. About 10 o'clock a body of sixty students ' belonging to the other classes of the col- j lege assembled in the yard. Ihey were armed with dish pans, tin pans, whistles, horse fiddles and a bugle. At a given signal the entire aggrega tion began to thump and blow. People within a radius of a quarter of a mile were aroused from their slumbers by this intolerable noise. The racket was kept up for nearly an hour. People turned over in bed and prepared to make up for BARGAINS ON THE SIDE. 75 pairs of Lace Curtains in 10 differ- QQ f( ent styles, value H and $4.50, will be.. vpU.UU BARGAINS ON THE SIDE.
