SPEAKS FOlt BROWN.
Congressman Walker Defends the
University's Coarse Toward
Andrews.
Boston, Aug. 7. Congressman Joeeph
H. Walker of Worcester has .given the
Associated Press an open letter which
has a bearing on the controversy be
tween the faculty of Brown university
and the corporation of the institution,
of which Mr. Walker is a member, over
the resignation of President Andrews.
He calls it a reply to certain members
of the faculty of Brown university by
one of the corporators, and says:
"The corporation deeply regrets that
any member of the faculty should have
felt it Ijis duty to complicate a vory
delicate situation growing out of the
wide divergence of views between it
and the public teachings of its presi
dent as to what is truth and as to their
respective duties and responsibilities
involving the attitude of the university
on questions viewed by the corporation
s at the very foundation of morality.
The corporation of Brown univtrsity.as
in the past, so now administers its af
fairs in the broad spirit of liberality
in which it was founded, as to both the
belief and teachings of its president and
professors, but it cannot tolerate the
alienation of the great trust committed
to its hands in support of those who
would subvert doctrines and beliefs its
founders, the present corporation and
all right thinking men in the commun
ity as well, hold to be 'truth.'
"The opinion of our corporation was
not unknown to President Andrews.
Either the corporation has or it has
not some degree of responsibility for
its representatives in its president and
professors in the institution.
"That it is in no wise responsible for
iheir sayings and doings will not be
asserted, and if it has any responsi
bility whatever the question arises,
could its action have been any more
conservative? Certainly Sir. E. Benja
min Andrews has an undoubted right
to speak his mind without offense to
or criticism by our corporation. But
this right, inalienable in Mr. Andrews,
does not dissolve the oath takn by the
fellows and trustees, nor justify nor
excuse the corporation from, taking
Cognizance of what the mind andspeech
of the president of Brown university is
bs to its effect upon the university, its
friends or the public.
"The only safe source of income to a
university is mainly from its invested
funds. Brown cannot long prosper or
even exist as President Andrews has
carried it, himself being judge."
SEVER. EQUALLED.
No Per Capita Wheat Yield was Ever
Equal to This.
Prom the returns of the state board of
s agriculture it appears that the winter
wieat raised this year in a block of six
?ioining counties, namely: Barton, Ellis,
Ellsworth, Pawnee, Rush and Russell,- at
60 cents per bushel, would be equal to a
per capita of $139.90 for every child, wo
man and man in the counties which by the
way, with the exception of a part of
Ellsworth are in the western half of the
Btate. The aggregate sum it would yield
is $6.394.0S7. The sum for each individual
Jn the different counties would be as fol
lows: Pawnee, $199.59; Rush, M99.15; Ellis,
1144.43: Barton, J133.19; Ellsworth, $103.38:
Russell, $105.16. Sumner, with its 4.5S5.0S0
Toushels, probably has more winter wheat
fhan was ever produced in one year by
any like territory in the world. The
amount that it would bring to each one
of the county's inhabitants, big and little,
at 60 cents a bushel, would be $131.27.

CALLS FOSTER ANOTHER.
ProX Elliot Becomes More Bitter in
E& Jerjuscianon.
Cleveland, O., -ug. 7. Prof. Henry
W. Elliott read today the interview in
New York with John W. Foster, the
commissioner sent by President Mc
Kiniey to confer with Lord Salisbury
relative to the Behring sea matter and
replied to Foster's intimation regard
ing the animus which actuated Elliott
to write his two recent letters. He
said: "So Mr. John W. Foster has
nothing to say in answer to my direct
charge of his telling the president an
untruth about myself. Well, perhaps
this is the best thing for him to do.
I happen to have in my possession the
black and white evidence that he has
violated the ninth commandment he
has borne false witness against his
neighbor. Then, when I call atten
tion to this fact, he talks vaguely about
'animus' and my 'status.' The Ameri
can people have had a glut of this ab
surd tomfoolery 'over the fur seals and
the prospect of having it strung out
two or three years longer under the
lead of this incompetent man is enough
to sicken one. I predict that they will
not stand the shame and imposition.
"I have always been under the im
pression and am still convinced that a
man convicted of bearing false witness
against his neighbors is not a fit man
for association within the private or so
cial life of American citizens."
IIEAVi: TOPEKA PAYROLLS.
Employes in Car Shops Working Ten
Sours First Time in Four Yewrs.
The employes of the car department
of the Santa Fe shops in this city are
today working ten hours, making full
time, or 60 hours this week. This is
the first time in four years that the
employes of any department of the
shops in this city have worked full
time. The present heavy freight traf
fic is responsible for the increase in
time, and if the business of the roai
continues to increase, the employes of
the locomotive department will also
work 60 hours per week. The pay roll
of the Topeka shops is now heavier
than for a number of years.

SHOULD BE MORE EXPLICIT
Sow a Young Man Had to Give His
Note for $10.
Topeka, Kansas,
- August 6th, 1897.
Ten (10) days from date I promise to
pay to W. M. Dary the sum of ten ($10)
dollars without interest.
JOHN M. PRICE, JR.
Leavenworth National Bank,
Leavenworth,
Kansas.
There is nothing unusual in the above
note but the circumstances under which
it was given came near causing a
"rough house" yesterday afternoon at
the Union Stock yards in . North To
peka. It was abofct 2 o'clock and the
customary sale of cattle was going on
when a young man, a stranger, was
seen to climb over the fence and criti
cally -look over the cattle. He was
dressed in a long prince albert coat,
pointed shoes, creased pants and every
one thought that he must surely be
some prospective buyer, an, eastern
capitalist perhaps.
"I have a bid of $24 on these cattle,"
said Auctioneer Geo. Hungate, "will
anyone raise it? " "$25.50," said the
stranger, and he kept on bidding away
like Marks the lawyer, until he had run
the price up to $30.
The stranger stepped into the office
and tendered Mr. Dary, proprietor of
the stock yards, $30 in payment for the
cattle.
"Didn't you buy the whole herd?"
said Mr. Dary. "There were 15 cattle
in the herd."
"Of course I bought the whole herd.
Doesn't that pay for them? I only bid
$30."
"You don't expect to get that herd of
cattle for $30 do you? Well, I guess not.
Yon bid $30 apiece for them, and your
bill amounts to $430."
"$450; why I can't pay you that much
for them. You said you had a bid of
$24 on 'these cattle.' I thought at the
time that I was getting a good bargain
in buying the cattle at two dollars
apiece. I wondered why those people
stood around and let them go so cheap;
but I see my mistake now."
The deal was finally settled by the
stranger giving Mr. Dary his note for
$10 to let him out of the transaction.
RENDERS IT INVISIBLE.
A Composition Which. Nullifies Elec
tric Search lights.
London. Aug. 7 Much interest is
taken in French naval circles at the
discovery of a composition which is al
leged to have the marvelous property
of rendering vessels invisible beneath
the rays of electric search lights.
It is stated that at the naval
maneuvers off Brest, torpedo boat No.
61, representing the enemy, succeeded
in trasversing unseen the luminous
zone produced by the electric projector,
thanks to having been coated with the
new composition.
A Valuable Prescription.
Editor Morrison of Worthington.Ind.,
"Sun," writes: "You have a valuable pre
scription in Electric Bitters and I can
cheerfully recommend it for sonstipa
tion and sick headache, and as a gen
eral system tonic it has no equal." Mrs.
Annie Stehle, 2625 Cottage Grove ave
nue, Chicago, was all run down, could
not eat nor digest food, had a back
ache which never left her and felt tired
and weary, but six bottles of Electric
Bitters restored her health and re

OIL FOR WAR VbSELS.
System Which Will Increase Speed and
Save Fnel.
Judge M. A. Chipman recently went
to Washington to file patent applica
tions and interest proper government
officials in inventions by Frank M. Reed
of Anderson, Ind., which have been
completed, tested practically and found
to be capable cf revolutionizing the
handling of war vessels at sea.
The inventions carry out to perfec
tion the idea originated by Russia in
using oil instead of coal for a fuel for
war vessels. Reed's invention covers a
system of oil burning which would
make it possible for a vessel like the
Indiana to carry enough fuel to last on
a trip around the world. The system
is gas genezation from oil. The gas is
generated by an atomizing plan, is
smokeless and capable of a tenth more
heat than the Russians get, or S3 per
cent more heat than the government is
now getting from coal.
Instead of 30 stokers, which are now
necessary on a great war vessel, one
man could handle all of the valves.
Another one of the inventions covers
a storage tank that is absolutely bullet
and shell proof. The cost of the equip
ment is very .small and would be paid
for in a month or so in the saving of
fuel. Exchange.
Colleges Selling Diplomas.
Dr. S. C. A. Rubey of Clinton, secre
tary of the Kansas state dental examin
ing board, and Dr. H. S. Lowry of
Kansas City, a member of the board,
examined Kansas City dental colleges
the other day. The result was a con
ference with Proaecntor Lowe, who will
institute proceedings in a few weeks to
have the charters of two of the institu
tions revoked. Criminal proceedings
may also be instituted against the offi
cials of these colleges. The colleges in
question have been selling diplomas.
Dr. Rubey says, for what they would
bring, and in many instances have sold
them to persons outside the city who
have never been inside the colleges.
"They have been grinding out di
plomas for almost any price," said Dr.
Rubey, "and I have positive evidence
that in some instances diplomas have
been sold to persons who have never
been in Kansas City. We intend to
prosecute them as frauds and to have
their charters revoked. "St Louis

Dr. James Charles9 Airship,
Dr. James Charles of Richmond, Ind.,
who for 20 years has been making a
study cf aerial navigation, and who for
a year past has been working on plans
for an airship, on a recent day an
nounced that he had them completed.
They were exhibited in connection
with a model of the ship to all who
cared to call to see them, and much in
terest was taken in the matter. Dr.
Charles' ship is much like that of Pro
fessor Langley, but it improves on it
in some radical features. The propel
ling power will be steam or electricity,
and the ship will be about 30 feet long
and designed to carry half a dozen
people.
A stock company will be organized
for its manufacture. If it proves to be
a success, one of the first trips will be
to the Alaskan goldfields.
