tricts to attend city schools.
11. li. 143 was taken up aud consid-
ered. ltrelatestolicen.se sale of li-
quor. After considerable fight on par
liamentary tactics the bill was aban-
doned and the special order set for
o'clock was called up.
The special order was tlie appor-
tionment bill, districting the territory
for legislative purposes. After several
sections had been read the bill passed
by party vote, the eight republicans
voting for it, and out*1 democrat and
four populists against it.
Senator Scott stated at this juncture
that the house had refused to consider
the council appropriation bill anil
moved that the house bill be taken up,
which carried.
After reading it some distance, il
was moved by Mr. Scott that the coun-
cil bill be made a substitute for the
house bill, which would make a con-
ference bill necessary.
At this juncture the council adjourn-
ed until after supper.
Coiincll--KvenlU|; session.
In the evening the first thing taken
up was II. II. 8(5. providing that boys
under sixteen years of age. who have
been sentenced to the penitentiary
shall be sent instead to some reforma-
tory.
The bill passed.
Senator l'routy moved that the coun-
cil go into committee of the whole on
bil as reported by the sifting com-
mittee.
II. II. 114 was read. It provides for
the apportionment of tax levy to the
different institutions, and was passed
C. B. 101, providing for adoption of
orphans, was recommended for pass-
age
H. II. 112. limiting the pewer of
color, was palsed by the following
vote: Aye, Maker, Holes, Doom, Fegan,
Gandy, Orner, Prouty. Scott, Spencer,
Tankersly, Mr. President; nay. Allen,
Ray.
The conference committees report
on the appropriation bill was adopted.
A half hour's recess was taken.
When the council reconvened, Senator
Baker arose anil addressing Senator
Ray in a happy speech presented him
with a handsomely boj.nil volume of
the resolutions passed by the couueil |
congratulating him and Mrs Ray on
the happy event of their marriage. '
He thanked the council for the com-
pliment 'n an appropriate speech.
Ex-Congressman Harvey was then
introduced and made u talk.
(«eo. Case, ex warden of the Kansas
state penitentiary, and Geo. Finlay,
of Topeka. Kan., were then intro-
duced and each made appropropriate
speeches.
Senator Scott was then introduced
by Senator baker as one of the ablest
and one of the greatest orators in the
union. He arose and aid that he
hud thought that his speech making
in the third legislative assembly had
ceased. He thought, though, that
there was something so attractive
about Kansas, with all the seeming
odium attached, that he could speak
to that state in answer to the gentle-
men of Kansas. He said he was a pro-
duct of Kansas, and then reviewed the
pleasure the memory of Kansas gave
him. He diverged upon the extreme
tendencies and said tnat the so-called
crank was the pioneer in civilization,
and so was Kansas in many things.
He ended by introducing Senator Doom
as the best exponent of just such a
worthy crank, and desired to hear
from him.
Senator Doom said he was proud of
the title of crank, if su<*!i was applied
to him. lie thought they were the
ones who led in the ranks of tree and
liberal thought. The martyr of today
was the hero of tomorrow, and such
also was the fate of the crank. He
offered a resolution of thanks to the
president of the council, the vice presi-
dent, the clerks, other officers, and the
pages, for their efficient work and
gc rier;

I.ai avkri'K, lud., March 9.— Ever
since the death of Fred Barman last
Sunday the jrounds where the de-
ceased lived have been the scene of
continued depredations. Barman lived
alone and had the reputation of being
u miser lie would accept no money
inii «llf< in payment for garden tvuok
which he sold, and as his expenditures
were extremely small and his income
from the thirty-nine acres of land was
considerable, lie is supposed to have
secreted his savings somewhere upou
his land. Barman never trusted h i •
money to hanks. Since his death
scores of people have been digging up
the land on his farm. Just before dy-
ing he disclosed the hiding place of
several hundred dollars in silver, but
death cut him olT before it could be
learned where additional wealth was
