Washington, Jan. 29 Members of the Kansas delegation in tho Houso said today that thoy expected tho Presidents give Gdneral Funston a good anuy appointment under thearmy reorganization bill, andthatFunston's cluimB for recognition would bo pre sented to Mr. McKinley at tho proper time. It was stated, howover, that none of tho delegation had taken up the matter with the President and that nothing would be done until General Funston had been consulted. Members of tho Houso commlttco on military utlairs said today tho .pro visions of tho army bill regulating tho appointment of volunteer olllcors would provent tho Kansun's appoint ment to any higher commission than that of captain, unless tho President should make a 'personal exception, as, for lnstnnco, was done In tho case of Gouonil Wheoler, who was trans ferred to the regular army as Urlgadlor. It Is understood that General Fuiihton's friends think his record in tho Philp pinos since and during tlioaetlvo Insur rection would justify his appolntmont as a major.

KANSAS CLIPS AND COMMENTS. It Is not surprising that Mr.Nlholls, of Parsons, was frightened when ho took sick. Soveral Chorryvnlo school patrons aro roaring about llko tho old scratch over a vaccination ordor. It is a question whether tho Nation Schilling mill at Enterprlsoleads Gov ernor Stanloy to tako his posltlvo stand on prize fighting. A man entered tho olllco of Bent Murdock tho other day and asked hlra to bo a cnndlduto for mayor. Dent said ho would ask his wife.

And now somo witty Individual has como forward with tho statement that Mrs. Nation is llko Georgo Washing- ton becauso she did It with her lltt' tie hatchet.

In commenting on Mr. Bryan's go ing to Euro no to study Imperialism tho Ablleno Reflector lets looso a sus picion that it has had all the timo thut Mr. Bryan know nothing about tho subject. Tho Issuo at next election Is Eldora do will bo a dam proposition and tho candidate of tho opposition has served notice on tho other fellow that when ho refers to him as tho dam candidate ho must not bo olTcndcd. Tho Emporia Gazetto argues that Mrs. Nation would more properly consecrate her life to tho memory of hert first husband, whom delirium tremens claimed, by not marrying number 2, thun by smashing joints. Out at LaCrpsso in tho center of tho Kansas plain, where the wind sweeps across miles of country, an item llko this from tho Ropublican is pure woe: "Tho same wind that blows tho lady's dress kueo high, blows dirt in tho bad man's oyc." 1500 pcoplo daily attend the revivals now in progress in Ellawatha, all but two churches being engaged, thirty converts somo nights and a perfect frenzy of religious enthusiasm at large. Hiawatha is really too good for this earth. A Nowton man was awakened by a terrific crush the other night which seemed to como from tho cellar where ho had a caso of "cold ones" ready for an emergency.

Day Is tho fattier of seven daughter and" Sunday has an equal number of sons. Flvo of tho Days liavo married Sundays, an other is engaged, so it now appears 'every Day will bo Sunduv by and bye.'" A young lady asked a naughty editor how to muko "not enough" out of tho word "enough" and ho told her It was done by transposing letters llko tins: "tuko mo mini, second and llrst letter.-, of tho word, ''enough" for tho first word and tho sixth, fourth and fifth for tho second word, nnd you will have two words that signify some thing that is not enough for most young lauies.

PolntN In Ilrccillnir nnd ImproTlnir Thnt ISverr Shepherd Should Know. Inflnenco of Tcmpermncnt Impor tnnco of Conatltntton, A shepherd should know the laws of life and breeding by which tho sheep has been brought from Its wild state to Its present perfection, says Farm, Stock and Home. The law of "like be gets like" Is true, but tho student wants to know why tho first "like" was in certain form and condition, why ono sheep had flno wool and another coarse, why ono weighed only 100 pounds at maturity and another 300, why ono had flno bones and another coarse, why ono Is narrow chested and thin necked and another tho rcverso; tn fact, ho wants to know the whole se cret of form, vitality nnd constitution, so that he may apply thoso laws to tho further Improvement of his flock. Tho sheep, like the human being, is mado up of brain, bone, muscle and vitals, and It Is tho predominance of either of theso which gives tho various breeds their peculiar shapes nnd fineness or coarseness of wool. Tho nervous tem perament gives fineness of skin, hair or wool and bone, sllmness of muscle, nar row chest and shoulders, small extrem ities, with tho exception of tho brain case, which Is thin, though large In proportion to the size of tho body. It Is predominance of this temperament In tho Merino which gives It fine wool, and the finer It Is bred tho moro deli cate Its constitution. Tho motive tem perament gives length nnd coarseness of hone, of body and legs, length of head and coarse or strong features, coarse, long hair or wool, with a raedl- oiamho: BtmorsniHES. um width of chest, shoulders and hips, but Is always long In proportion to width. This temperament prevails In the long wooled sheep. Tho vital temperament may bo de scribed as one of rotundity, as large vital organs give depth and breadth to the chest, round limbs nnd head, short, thick extremities, and the skin is soft and pink colored on nccount of strong circulation of tho blood. Tho Bkln also moves easily on tho body on account of more adipose tissue beneath it, and the hair or wool is medium in thickness and length. This tempera ment prevails In the Southdown and Shropshire, which are probably tho best types of tho middle wools. An even commingling of tho temperaments In ono animal or human gives what is called a good constitution, nnd a good constitution Is necessary to prepotency. The knowlodgo of the foregoing prin ciples is the science of breeding nnd Is expressed in the law "like begets like." For Instance, mate two beings together with the same temperament nnd tho progeny will be like both pareuts, but If two anlmnls of different tempera ments aro ninted tho progeny will be most like the parent with tho stronger constitution. Hence wo see the neces sity of n purely bred, strong ram for the Improvement of a Dock of common ewes. The better nnd moro perfect he Is tho greater and quicker will bo tho Improvement of Iho Hock, nnd the sec ond cross will show the change much more than the first. But the sire should not be bred to his daughter ex cept In extreme cases and by an ex port, as close breeding weakens tho constitution though It fixes the type. A new ram of tho same blood should bo used. This Is the law by which bleeders havo originated the various types of sheep. Others have followed In their footsteps, corrected some of their errors and kept the Improvement going on. It Is for us to keep up this improvement by specific application of tho laws of heredity 88 manifested In tho vnrlous temperaments of tho ani mals wo would improve, for whatever here applies to tho sheep applies to other domestic animals. Tho originators of types have crossed, outbrcd and Inbred till they got an Ideal. They put In a dash more of nerve for fineness, or of tho motive power for strength of frame, or of tho vital organs, so that the carcass may bo better supplied with nutrition, as the case may require. This Is the way all the English Breeds of sheep and other stock havo been mado what they are, and this Is the way tho newer breeds like the Shropshire and Suffolk among sheep are crowding to the front. They nre the latest product of tho breeder's art and "fill tho eye" of tho connoisseur. The men who produced them wero n law to themselves, thoy wero phllosphcrs nnd have benefited the world fur more than all the ancient philosophers. Blnco they not only delv ed Into nature's secrets, but turned In to material beuellt for tho use of man kind. The understanding shepherd Is l philosopher, frequently a poet and at all times one of nature's noblemen. Let every shepherd emulate tho under standing shepherd nnd become a philosopher In his line. 8ml Und of n Colorndo Cov, A Colorado farmer lost a cow In a queer manner hist week.
