Sri iiv i a npk i (ragk t I I In Disguise That the War With the Filipinos WASN'T ENDED AT A BLOW This Is Otis' Conclusion the Whole Matter, OT THAT BLUFF OF MONROE'S At Bayonbonj; Was One of a Century Text of the JJryan-itizal-Aguin- naldo Proclamation. "Washington. Dec. 2. The report of Gen oral Otis on the operations In the 1 hlllp ipinos up to August CI last, has been made public by -the War department. It is a volume of 273 pages, with an appendix of minor reports almost as large. One of the most interesting features Is the im mense amount of detail involved in Gen eral Otis' administration of the affairs of the island. General Otis throws some light on his Chinese exclusion act, declar ing it a matter of public policy. He goes at some length into the racial differences footweer. the Filipinos and Chinese, ex plaining that strong prejudice against the Chinese prevailed among the natives be cause of the success and unscrupulous doings of the Chinese in all trade matters. General Otis says that in view of the race hatred between the Chinamen and natives, as well as the factional differ ences among the Chinamen themselves, which sometimes broke out into riot and bloodshed, he deemed it expedient to ap ply the American immigration laws to the island. This was done, and arrange ments have been made for identifying such Chinamen as have receipts of prior residence, so that unnecessary hardships may not be worked. The correspondence between" General Otis and Aguinaldo before the outbreak of active hostilities receives much space. and more is taken up with the detailed accounts of the various engagements. In connection with the Filipino uprising In the suburbs of Manila on tho night of February 2, General Otis prints the trans lation of one of Aguinaldo's proclama tions, which incited this demonstration. The paper fortunately wa- discovered on the loth and the plans of Uie insurgents were checkmated. It called for the as sembling of the Manila military in the rwr of the American outposts. At the ouod of attack .from, tha outside the ln .surgents were to fall on antf butcher the wnQte of the foreign poulation, respect ing nothing but native Filipino families. All the prisoners were to be released and armed to assist in -the massacre. The plans was successful In o far that about 3.W0 armed insurgents assembled behind the American lines. In the fight of that night and the folio wing day about 501 of these were killed. General Otis relates minutely the diffi culties encountered in dealing with the foreign merchants, whose business was interfered with by the war. the outlining of plans of revenues and customs, the ne gotiations with the Sultan of Sulu. from whom he says General Bates secured more concessions in a month than Spain had been able to secure in 300 years; the institution of town governments, the es tablishment of schools and caring for a large number of prisoners, both Spanish and native. In concluding his report. General Otis says that it may prove fortunate that Aguinaldo's insurrection was not stamped out instantly udoh Its inception. He says 4bat the natives throughout the island Stave peacefully and even gladly accepted American occupation of their towns and (that they have learned by experience that ihe insurgents have made a specialty of murder, outrage and robbery under the guise of establishing a free and Independ ent government. They have had a chance upon the withdrawal of the American .troops to see the difference between American and native methods of govern muMtt, and his opinion is that they will gladly submit to the former as soon as they can be protected from the latter. A column of 3.090 troops, he says, could at any thne during the insurrection have marched from one end of the island to Uie other without encountering serious difficulty. But the insurgents would in evitably have closed in behind them as soon as they passed, showing the neces sity of having sufficient troops to hohi the country after it bad been' captured. General Otis dwells upon the necessity of establishing a good school system and says that the native population is very itadstent upon the divorce of the schools from clerical control. This was prom ised by the Spanish government during the last insurrection, but the archbishop of Manila has protested against its being carried out. General Otis says anally that the in surgents are duped by their leaders as to Uie political situation and that the tend ency all along has been to hold out until the assembling of congress, when the views of the. anti-expansion patty, whose literature has been extensively circulated in the islands, would be sure to pre vail. BRYAN, RIZAL AND AGUINALDO Full Text of the Filipino .Proclama tion Which Kiincued Their Xarae?J San Francisco, Dec. 2. Mail advices from Manila give the full text of the Filipino proclamation, notable for its reference to AV. J. Bryan, Risal and Aguinaldo, the substance of which was cabled and published some weeks ago. The proclamation was published at Tar las In the JLa Independencia, the official organ of Aguinaldo, October SS. As translated from the Spanish the preface reads: "A message of gratitude to the iftus trious Democrats cf the "United States through representatives of the institu tions founded on liberty 'reclaimed by the great men of the North American republic Jir the meeting wlU be celebrwt aa tomorrow fa the capital of the nation. Initiated by the sons of that grand lib eral association that dominated the country, which interprets very well the sentiments of the people and the desires of the goi'ernment, this meeting in the presidential palace for tomorrow was organized." After announcing the official program of the assembly, the proclamation con tinues: "All the preparations that have been going on for the past few days are cer tainly worthy of the ilustrious head of the anti-imperialistic party. American by birth, he has been educated in and practiced the teachings of the greatest president of the United States and for that reason cannot consent that am bition for power shall send to useless shameful sacrifice the sons of free America; and for that reason, has sym pathized with President Aguinaldo, whom he recently acclaimed the hero of this country, a follower of the teachings which have immortalized "Washington, Monroe and Jefferson. The historians of the Philippines ought to write in pages of gold the name of this great Ameri can, a crusader of justice, for that ideal justice of which Zola spoke in an address to the French youth. "In this struggle we sustained with the old sovereignty, the word of freedom was Rizal, and the arm which put the Idea into execution was Aguinaldo. In the present time Bryan replaces the great martyr. Sublime lessons for the very enemies which they meet with among their own brothers, who fare fighting the injustice which they are coming to com mit upon a weak people. See what grade of justice if there be grades of justice has our case, when it finds champions, not only among foreigners but among the very soldiers of the great republic. "There should be pictured in Filipino history, with the same glary, Rizal, Bry an and Aguinaldo, glorious trinity of our political redemption, and Tor a foreigner, who has Anglo-Saxon blood in his veins, to defend our cause, we ought to look upon tho second with the same venera tion with which we regard our greatest martyrs and heroes. "Bryan, American by blood; by ideas, an illustrious son of the Filipinos. Bryan is the clasp that links and unifies two friendly people, torn by the .same dis sensions and deserving of the applause and admiration of the world. The Amer ican people arc not hostile to the Fili pino. The people have all the time been the victims of the lust of the men in power. This war the president of the re public has said is not one of a people against a people but of a party against a nation, if weak in force, a giant in heroic and sublime sacrifice. A thousand times there has been shown this friend ship that united the American people with the Filipinos in clubs, assemblies, associations and meetings. Consequently, these manifestations which the people are to make tomorrow in honor of Bryan and the party directed by him, represen tatives of tho God sons of the union, Is a debt of gratitude and a duty of friend shio. "God grant that in no distant time wo may see fulfilled the aspirations of the two friendly peoples. Meanwhile, let the organising committee receiving our mes sage of congratulation, which faithfully express the desires of the Filipinos peo ple, on whose coat-of-arms appears the gratitude to all who yesterday or today have interested themselves in our cause:" BIGGEST BLUFF OF THE WAR Lieutenant Monroe's Xervo at Bayon Iiomjc IVas Something Awful. "Washington, Dec. 2. General Otis in formed the war department today of tna surrender of Bayonbong, in the following dispatch: "Report received that Bayon bong, with province Neuva Visaya, sur rendered November 2S to Lieutenant Mon roe, Forty-eighth cavalry, wi.o command ed -advance scouts on Garranglan train consisting of 50 men, Forty-eighth cav alry, and three native scouts. Insurgent General Conon surrendered entire force, numbering SCO men, armed with Mausers, and number of officers;. 30 Spanish and two American prisoners secured and probably considerable insurgent prop erty." Manila, Dec. 2.-6 p. m. The capture by Lieutenant Monroe and fifty men of the Fourth cavalry of the Filipino gen eral, oCnon, with S00 officers and men, with rifles, and several American and 70 Spanish prisoners, at Bayambong, prov ince of Nueva Vizcaya. was a successful biuff. Lieutenant Munroe tapped the rebel wire, telegraphed to Conon that he was advancing with a large force, and demanded his surrender. After negotia tions, Conon consented to capitulate to a "superior force." whereupon Lieuten ant Monroe telegraphed that he would enter the town with a small guard and receive Ihe garrison's surrender. He captured the whole Filipino force and secured their arms, the rebels supposing Munroe had an army behind him. New York, Dec. 2. A dispatch to the Herald from Manila says: The surrender of General Conon and S00 Insurgents at Boyonbong, to Lieutenant James Mon roe, of the Fourth cavalry, was the re sult of a remarkable display of cour age and bluff on the pirt of the American officer. Lieutenant Monroe had only fifty men with him, and all possible re inforcements were far in his rear. He communicated by telegraph with the in surgent leader, stating that he was ready to move on Bayonbong at once with a large force unless he received the uncon ditional surrender of the rebels. The lieu tenant wired south for reinforcements but 24 hours before they reached him he went to Bayonbong, with his little escort of half a hundred, and General Conon sur rendered to him. WHEELER'S PLAiN STATEMENT OfjWhythe Filipino Yl'ar I a Good WarKeliufcev the Copperhead- "Washington. Dec. 2. General Joe "Wheeler, in a person letter received here today, dated at Angeles. Luzon, says: "There are more than twenty different tribes in this island and very few of them would submit to A?umaido's rule. Aguin aldo and his generals would like to gov ern, because it would give them great power and many of his soldiers like the war because, for the first time in their Hves, they have authority to carry a gun. They live by taking what they want from the people. Many of them are robbers, who rob defenceless people of their money and sometimes murder them. If we should withdraw there would be war fare and anarchy in the islands, and the wetfato-do people would get some strong government to come and take control. Aguinaldo publishes a paper, which Is filled with expressions from people of the nited States who are called anti-Imperialists, and I think were it not frr these expressions the insurrection would be closed."

The caucus of the house Republicans, which was held in the hall of the house of representatives tonight, was both interesting and impor tant. The selection of the candidate for speaker and other house officers was a cut-and-dried affair. But before the ad journment of the caucus after a discus sion lasting almost two hours, the Re publicans without a dissenting voice de cided to re-enact the Reed rules. The selection of a candidate for speak er by the party in power Is usually a very animate33affair, but months ago all the other candidates who entered the field after the retirement of Speaker Reed abandoned the contest, leaving General David B. Henderson of Iowa the unopposed candidate. His nomination was therefore a, foregone conclusion and he was nominated by acclamation. The officers of the last house, except Colonel Ruell, the sergeantat-arms, were nominated without opposition. Colonel Russell was not a candidate for re-election and Colonel Henry A. eCasson of Wisconsin was nominated In his stead. The caucus was largely attended. It was presided over by General rosvenor of Ohio, who was re-elected chairman of the caucus. Mr. Loudenslager of New Jersey was re-elected secretary. Mr. Henderson's name was presented by Mr. Payne of New York and seconded by Mr. Hopkins of Illinois, both of whom had been candidates originally. The roll was not called. The nomination was made by acclamation. General Henderson, in expressing his deep appreciation of the honor, said: "We have great responsibilities resting upon us in this congress, and greater re sponsibilities in the coming year, and upon our wise action depends the pros perity of the country that we all love. May I impress upon your minds the ab solute necessity for devotion to the re public, in more than one particular. Economy must be our watchword; care in the expenditure of the people's money. At the same time, let us be large enough in intellect to grasp the situation which presents a growing country with opening and expanding conditions which demand our careful and patriotic consideration. "We are going to be met by a well organ ized and able minority, led by accom plished leaders. This involves the ne cessity for the Republicans to touch el bows Intho work before us. We have got to realize that in this congress, with our small majority, every man, like a true soldier, must be constantly at his post of duty and I urge with great earn estness that this be the determination of each and all. Accepting this generous nomination as I do, I have no fears but that the united wisdom and work of this great body will increase the confidence and happiness of the republic. Profound ly and gratefully, I thank you. I ask that I may lean upon you, each one of you and that is tho highest request that I can make tonight." Mr. Payne of New York called atten tion to the narrow majority in the house and the necessity of having all the Re publicans present throughout the sessions. He offered a resolution which was adopt ed that no leaves be granted except for urgent cases, and that one member should be appointed to look after the pairs. Mr. Dalzell of Pennsylvania, who was a mem ber1 of the committee on rules at the last session, offered a resolution declaring it to bo the sense of the caucus that the rules of the Fifty-fourth and Fifty-fifth congress (the Reed rules) should be adopted by the incoming house. He made a speech of considerable length in sup port of his Incoming resolution. Mr. Hepburn of Iowa, who fought the rules in the last congress, attempted to argue several points with Mr. Dalzell, but the latter refused to yield. When he had i concluded, however. Colonel Hepburn got the floor and attacked the resolutions. Ho insisted that the rules shouM be modi fied. He laid particular stress upon the quetion of recognition, which he claimed should go to the first member who ad dressed the chair. He also contended that, the committee on rules should be entirely independent of the speaker and that there should be a general decentral ization of power from the speaker in the direction of the committees. He pro- Kpoaed an amendment to the resolution providing that the rules shou'd be adopted for forty days, during which modifications could be decided upon. This amendment met with httle favor on crts ou; 1 congressman; now. the ground that it would show weakness. therefore, be it Mr. Cannon of Illinois, who will again j "Resolved, by the executive committee be chairman of the committee on appro- of the Democratic party of Utah, That priations, warmly supported Mr. Dalseil's eald statement is false, and we solemnly resolution.

Mr. Hep burn then withdrew bis amendment and the Darnell resolution was adopted with out a dissenting voice.. The caucus then adjourned. Another session of the caucus win be held Tuesday night, when the financial bJI will be considered. RICHARDSON OF TENNESSEE 1- Chosen by tho Ienioorat of the IIoue aTlielr Leader. Washington, Dec 2.

Representative Hay of "Vir ginia was elected chairman of the caucus by a vote of 57 to 62 cast for McRea of Arkansas. It has ben customary for the oldest member in point of service to pre side over the caucus, -and the selection of Mr. Hay, who has served only one term, was an unusual honor." The name of Mr. Norton of Ohio was also presented for presding officer but was. withdrawn. Rep resentative Cummings 'of New York and Robertson of Louisiana were elected sec retaries. Mr. Richardson was placed in nomination by Mr. Carmack of Tennes see. Mr. De Armond was nominated by Mr. Benton of Missouri. Mr. Bankhead was nominated by Mr. Ball of Texas and Mr. Sulzer was nominated by Mr. Cum mings of New York. The first ballot resulted: Richardson, 43; De Armond, S3; Bankhead, 34; Sulzer, 23.

SENATE'S FINANCIAL MEASURE Gold Standard Maintenance and n Re funding: I'lsm the Features. Washington, Dec. 2. Tho Republican members of the senate committee on fin ance met at the room of the committoe today to consider a financial bill to be presented to congress at the approaching session. It can be definitely stated that the measure will make provision for the maintenancd of the gold standard. It is also quite definitely understood that the senate bill will be an entirely different measure from that prepared by the house Republican caucus committee. It will necessarily cover much of the same ground, tout will differ from the house bill In phraseology and detail and cover some points no included in that measure. This difference will have the effect of requir ing a conference committee to settle the differences in case both bills are passed each by its respective (house. The proposition to Jrefund .the tout standing 4 per cent bonds of 1907 and the 5's of 1S95 was gone over at some length. Secretary Gage, it is understood, has "the subject under consideration and It is learned that his views practically agree with those of tho committee. The prop osition involves at least an amendment to the national bank act. One is to re duce the circulation tax from ono to one lwilf per cent and the other authorizes the issue of circulation of national banks up to the bar value of bonds depositee. j There are now outstanding of the five per cents due in J&M about $39,000,000 and of the 4's duo in 1907 about $515,000,000, taking into account those purchased by the gov ernment under the secretary's recent of fer, malting a total of $335,000,000, which are payable within the next seven yours. Tho members of the senate finance com mittee are of the opinion, which Is fully shared by the secretary of the treasiupr, that these bonds could bo refunded foi others running for a long period of time, bearing 2 per cent and it Is expected that a proposition of this kind will be Incor porated in the senate bill when it is in troduced. The members refused to give out any details concerning the bill which is to be introduced, which will probably be on Wednesday next.

The meagre official dis patch giving a list of the British casual ties at Modder river and announcing the bare fact that Lord Methuen is still there awaiting reinforcements, is only supple mented by a brief special message from1 Capo Town tonight, stating that the Boers destroyed the bridge over the Modder river before the battle and are now con centrating at Spytfontein, where the final battle before Kimberley is expected to take place. The censor has apparently Ktmww! all nress messages from the front relating to the battle, which is not re garded as a favorable indication. As to tho material results of General Methuen's engagements, it is not yet clear whether General Methuen's -force actually '.-cssed the Modder river or is still awaiting the rebuilding of tho bridge before the artil lery and cavalry can cross. In any case, the railway must be carried over the bridge before the indispensable big naval guns can pass, because Lord Meth uen's last message showed that they were worked on trucks along the railroad. It is a significant fact that Lord Methuen's cable makes no mention of tho Boer loss, which, therefore, Is assumed to be small. THE CAV1Z DUTCH RISING A dispatch from Cape Town this even ing says Lord Methuen's advance un doubtedly Is beginning to affect the Boer strategy and probably explains the with drawal from Moori river. The continued presence of commandos in Cape Colony tends to confirm tho opinion that the Boers are making desperate efforts to recruit their forces from the Dutch resi dents. While It is impossioie to ooiain exact statistics it is absolutely certain that the disaffected Dutch have joined the Boers In great numbers, which are still increasing. Most of the recruits are young men. General Buller's message clearly Indicating the punishment for dis loyalty having deterred tho actual hold ers of farms from joining the Boers, through fear of confiscation of their prop erty. There are now clear proofs that the loyalty of the border Dutch is unable to withstand tho proximity of Boer com. mandos. The rest of the colony is ap parently quiot, but there is a strong un dercurrent of sympathy for the Boers. The outlook regarding Cape Colony, how ever, may be regarded as hopeful. The Boers, as well as tho British, un derestimated the strength of their oppon ents, and every engagement has evidently tended to establish a hearty respect for Tommy Atkins. WAK CARRIED ESTO IRELAND Two Irish magistrates were deprived this week by Lord Ashbourne, the lord chancellor of Ireland, of their offices on account of anti-British comments on the Boer war. Tho proceeding is most un usual, especially as one of the delinquents was a nobleman. Lord Bmly. who, spik ing to some laborers at Limerick, inferred that Great Britain might have another Ladysmith in Ireland. Lord Ashbourne asked for an explanation, but Lord Kmly baughtily refused, whereupon ho was re moved. Lord Kmly Is prominent in Ire land, both socially and politically, and an ardent homo ruler. Tho only other instance on record is when Mr. Gladstone, years ago, deprived Lord Rossmore of a magistracy for similar utterances. NOT ALE ARK TOUT WOarUN The Society of American Women will give a musical and theatrical entertain ment December 4. in aid of the hospital ship Maine. Thoso heretofore prominent, in tho movement are expected to be pres ent, thought it has been decided not to repeat the features which distinguish! Mrs. James Brown-Pottar's entertain ment. Many members of this society, which was asked by the originators of the Maine idea to help tlwm. are con siderably chagrined at the fact that their efforts were interpreted in such a partial spirit, many of ihem, at first, thinking the hospital ship would indicate a more de sire to alleviate sufferings on both sides, instead of betng taken to mean a warm support of Great Britain, as has been I done. Another detachment of 3,89 Brttfsh troops sailed for Sooth Africa today. Owing to the phenomenal sale of the newspapers consequent upon tha war a paper famine is threatened. It is re ported that the American seppttas have failed temporarily. aurrjiirKN ano caps colont London, Dec S. Tha war office has re ceived the following from General.

'Wim, 5ilii W w&LJMf THE OLD Under Which the Death Rate From These Diseases Increased Over Twenty Per Cent. Annually. THE NEW Which Reduced the Death Rate from Consumption Alone, Thirty four Per Cent. During the Past Year. THIS NEW Kas Cured Over Eighty Thousand Persons of Catarrh Since September ist, 1898. IT CURES BY Coughs, Colds, Asthma, and Croup The two Illustrations above show mora plainly than words can express, the -i mderfiil change that has been made in the treatment of respiratory diseases dur ing the past two years. Formerly, any sufferer from Catarrh, Asthma, Consump ti -n or Bronchitis was at once placed un dor the care of some phjsiclan and dosed with all sorts of nauseating drugs and to nicd. Even as far back as twenty-five 1 -r.s ago, the doctor seemed to be aware of tho fact that in order to reach these t 1 f ises inhalation must be used, and ex perltnented with atomizers, sprays and juohes, in the hope of finding some ger mieide which could toe forced into the rrtnchlal tubes and lungs. That all these treatments proved practically useless is v,n by the fact that, during the past twenty years the number of death! from it urn and eonsumntion alone, has increased from S,000 to over 200,000 a year. 1 ia discovery that theso terrible scourges were germ diseases dia not lessen the it ith rate, for of all the germicides kn own to tho profession but one of them uld be inhaled into the lungs, and this, Chlorine Gas, -was deadly poison. The v hers, carbolic acid, ammonia and creo scte (liquids) must toutfi the germs tin mselves in order to destroy; consequ ently could not be used with effect, as it i- absolutely impossible for moisture in an y form, to enter the bronchial tubes and 1 ngs. The discovery of THE NEW DRY AIR GERHICIDE rude the cure of these diseases by Inhalation possible; without It there was not w i of reaching the germs, and up to the prR-ent day NO OTHER HAS BEEN FOUND IlltoMEI alone Is the only germicide of sufficient power to destroy the bacilli of Catarrh, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds, C roup and Consumption, and which can be t ih.en In the air wo breathe without in jury to the patient. KILL THE QERHS o these diseases and you have no need of stomach medicines, or the services of a 7'i-!cian. You can sit In your own ho me, in church, at the theatre, and cure i .u vrlf. The little inhaler can be car ried In the pocket and a few moments' i-. if same will prevent Coughs, Cold., Bronchitis, Pneumonia and Croup. You ko no risk as with all other treatmen ts. for -every bottle is guaranteed and ir nionej refunded if it fails to cure. Iljomet is sold by all druggists, or sent by mail.

H(Pf isifi s nUu iflflnLl o Light Saturday'Run But Active Demand. TOPS UP TO $3.65 Cattle Steady With Light Trade, Hog1 receipts at all the livestock mar kets yesterday were painfully light, and this point, while In line in point of vol ume with the rest, was also light and no exception to the general rule. It was not a bad Saturday,, especially so c'osely (following a legal holiday. The local strength was all right and he'd is own very well with all of them. The market was quoted as strong. Thpre were tnroe cars to cross the scales and a scattei ing line of small bunches of local tui The average weight went up again, land ing on 246. The quality was very fair, and there were bujers for everything that came in, and then some. The week nas been strong every day in comparative tone with other points as a daily perusal of the different livestock markets will readily show. Whenever the general mar ket has been down and this one down also, it has been tne invariable rule that the Wichita market was less so, and in a few cases It was upward vhen the rest were a shade to 5 cents lower. There being one day of practically no trading rather entered Into the whole week, as is always the case, a no one fee's much like business for a day or two following Thanksgiving. All the marke:s have been light, Chicago jesterday recording the very low point of only 14,000 hogs. It is hoped that the coming week will show a greatly increased volume of receipts, as there are buyers for far mote than are coming in. REPRESENTATIVE SALES. No. Dock. Av. Wt.

The cattle business was very light, there being only two sales. One was a mixed assortment bargain counter bunch of steers, cows, and heifers, the whole layout selling at $3.15. The other was one heifer, weighing 1,030 pounds, and aellinff at $3.35. The Dold business In all departments was good yesterday for the last day of the week. There were seven cars sent out and a large local and express shipment. The whole week has been very strong and orders for a large trade this week. Provisions yesterday were firm all around, iniluenced by a good demand, light hog supply, and better hog prices. The decrease in lard and ribs, and tho Increase in pork stocks was about a3 expected, December lard went up 5 cents, to $4.90, and December ribs took a 12 cents shoot upward, landing on $4.97. As stated before, there is one rule of long years' standing which is universal throughout the vast interests of the Dold Packing company, and that Is retaining old and tried and faithful employes. Yes terday was the fourteenth anniversary of tho career with the Dolds of Mr. Fritz Jehle, foreman of tho lard department of the local hou:e. For eight years he has been with the Wichita plant, and six 3 ears in Buffalo. The thousands of con sumers of the celebrated "White Clover Leaf" lard, if they could take a gaze at "Brother Fritz might be surprized that so unpretentious son of the Faderland could be so expert and produce such a high grade article so necessary In the culinary art. There is nothing about the refining of lard he does not know, and his ser vices are thoroughly appreciated by the management It was said of Fritz last summer that he disposed of a half a sheep a day at the table, stowing away In his interior, mutton, with the same degree of accomplished art, as the deli cately manufactured lard. This mav be a gross canard, but it is true a. at tested by the dally growing demand for this now celebrated product of "White Clover Leaf" lard that his pains, knowl edge, long experience, and study, and great care may safely be challenged the world over for an equal in making fine high-grade and absolutely pure lard. Here's hoping he is here at the end of the next fourteen years. x,irx:5TO0K aiAitKcrii. CHICAGO. Chicago, Dec 2.

STOCK MARKET WAS SLUGGISH Failing to Respond to a Sank. State ment Fully l"i to Expectations. 2ew Toik, Dec. 2. Today's stock mar ket was sluggish and drifting through out. Professional traders were inclined to buy stocks at the opening with the Idea of discounting a favorable bank statement. The appearance of the state ment on the tap was the signal for a light realizing moement and as there was no outside demand to absorb it, prices fell away. The closing was dull, but distinctly easy, the downward drift having established a liberal sprinkling of net losses where the level had been high er throughout in the early dealings. The (whole list was affected by the easier tone in the final dealings. The bank state ment was fully as favorable as had been expected, though the liberal expansion in the loan account was unlooked for. The high rates for money and the satisfactory security offered are attractive in inducing the banks to keep their loans c!oae to the limit of the legal allowance. The lack of response to the bank statement was due to the understanding that the recuperation in reserves, was wholly due to bond redemption operations with the tub-treasury. The fact that the move ment of currency is still in favor of the interior on balance and the progress of the sterling exchange rate towards tho gold export point, a further step of which was made today, leaves the fu ture of the money market still unprom ising from the stock operator's point of iew.

Wheat was steady early, but weakened on a poor demand from outside, closing lgsc under yester day. Com, influenced by the wheat mar ket, closed a shade under. Oats closed a shade higher and provisions 5Tsc up, the latter supported by a good demand and a light hog supply. May wheat began the day fairly steady, a shade lower at 6Sj40C9c, and advanced to 9c. New York showed an upward tendency, an encouraging hint of a better export demand. This, however, failed to materialize; an increase of local stocks of about 500.0W) bushels was predicted and considerable long wheat was let out, all of which was depressing. The market sagged to CSViSec, and closed 'Cvsc lower for Ma, at wgGSc The volume of business was small. Corn was steady early, sympathizing with wheat, weakening later with that cereal and on liberal receipts. The de mand was poor and local longs were freo sellers. Stocks hero are expected to de crease about 300,000 bushels. May closed a shade down- at 32H?32c. Oats were firm early and closed steady. Trade was dull and featureless and fluc tuations narrow. Little change in local stocks 13 predicted. May closed a shade over yesterday at 23,"423;4c. Provisions held firm. The strength was due principally to a light hog supply and a good outside demand. Shipments for the week were liberal, though under last year's. The world's lard stock showed a decrease of 63,000 tierces for Novem ber. May pork closed 5c up, at 19. C5. May lard 5f7V;C higher, at S5.371:, May ribo 5c better at $5.15. Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat. 100 cars; corn, 370, oats, ISO; hogs, 37,000 head. GRAIN AND FItODDCK 3IA11KJETj5. CHICAGO.

?&e MiijtMta SEila 2PgX& Jmtxitaij gtommft Skc.emfrer 3, 1899 RAISED J BIG SUi Ladies of United Charities r Got $469.14 Yesterday. EVERYBODY WORE BADGES And Smiles-Church Collec tions Today. Swoet charity and sweat solicitors for charity were everywhere in "Wiohita yes terday. In everj' tois store, on every im ,?ontant business corner, in every public corridor and tripping through all the large office buildings, were bevies of pretty rep resentatives of the Saturday and Sunday association, the new terra for the united charities of the city. They were solicit ing donations for charity, and with each gift of whatever amount they tied a pretty badge on the lapel of the giver and sent him on his journey with a smile. At dark last evening the4adge6 were In evi dence everywhere, for there arc-not many men in Wichita, so ealoused to the wishes of young womanhood as to turn a deaf oar to their importunities. The ladies scored a great triumph with the flrst effort with the new plan. At 16 o'clock last night there was reported to Miss Maud Tratt, treasurer of the Saturday and Sunday association, the f magnificent sum of $469.14. Added to this P amount is to be the collection taken at the union Thanksgiving services at Ply mouth Congregational church last Thurs day, and the collections at the various churches of the city this morning, and it is estimated that the Saturday and Sun day association will have realized at last S8M by the time all of these col lections have reached the treasurer. That the ladies in charge of the movement are jubilant over their success .goees without saying." for they could hardly estimate in advance how the public would respond to the new plan. The funds gathered in by the Saturday and Sunday association will be divided evenly between the Children's Home, the "Wichita hospital and the Society of King's Daughters. The latter has now in view for the coming winter many poor families whom they will assist in the way of fuel, food and clothing and their share of yesterday's receipts will be a groat help to them in their splendid work. Many humorous incidents took place yesterday in connection with the work of soliciting donations. On North Main .street four pretty girls tackled Deacon "Wilson. It so happened that Mr. Wilson had just sold a horse to Bob Phillips for $4 and was coming up to the sidewalk shaking the four silver dollars in his hands. He hadn't seen the girls, or he would not have acted so thoughtlessly. Thay caught sight of him before he could hide his money and one of the girls pro ceeded to tie a badge on Mr. Wilson. When she had collected, another girl stepped up and did the same thing, and so on until each of the four ladies had sold a badge. Then Farmer Doolittle walked up with his long overcoat on. The overcoat has sixteen buttons down the front One of the young ladies begun tieing badges on the buttons while the others 'ontertalned Doacon Wilson and vrooeedod to collect 30 cents for each badge tied on Farmer's coat. When they had gotten through the greater part of the price of Mr. Wilson's horse had gone imo cnarlty. farmer JJooiutie lookedpratty gay on his way to the court house and when lie got there he sold the lodges for C9 cents and gave the moncv to the young ladies who had worked Mr. Wilson, so they really sold the badges twice. By the time Deacon got through the bevy of solicitors at the court house he had just enough of 'the 54 horse left to buy a clear. At the Carey hotel L. R. Delaney of the Santa Fe system made a. successful test of woman's nature. As he entered the office from the dining room he was ac costed by Mss Sargent and Mrs. GarsL Mr. Delaney saw them preparing to doc orate him with a charity badge. "Here, kind ladies," he said in a voice modu lated to exquisitely beautiful softness, "take all I've got for charity, and wel come, thrice welcome." He threw theni his pocketbook with ail its contents and rushed out the door. The pocketbook contained just a one-cent piece. Mr. Delaney feH mean. He borrowed a quar ter frm a friend and played a slot ma bine very recklessly. "When he had got to the last nickel without winning a cent he sal In despair: "Frank, I'm woing to play this last nickel for charity. What ever it draws shall go to the ladies up stairs" Then he dropped the nickel in the slot and out rushed $5 in nickels. Mr. Delaney grabbed up the coin and started up stairs to find Miss Sargent and Mrs. Garst. When they saw him tney re membered the one-cent piece and cri-'1. t The Slave rt riMmrUn P Of Circumstance and Condition SUFFERS If He Uses the Wrong Kind of J Food.

"Better Be Wise Than Rich" Wise people are also rich when they know a perfect remedy for all annoying dis eases of the blood, kidneys, liver and bowels. It is Hood's Sarsaparilla, which is perfect in its action. It so regulates the entire system as to bring vigorous health. It never disappoints. Rheumatism "SMy mother, eighty years old, has received much benefit from taking Hood's Sarsaparilla for rheuma tism, and recommends Hood's to others." Agnes D. Derby, Jamestown, N. Y.

"Hold your aprons," said Mr. Delaney, and he tumbled the $5 in coin into their coffers. Tho tune of the women changed and they said, "Oh, you lo-ply nian." Mr. Delaney is a philoso pher. He says the action of the ladies illustrated every woman's peculiarity with regard to wealth. When a man has pennies they say "You horrid man" and when he has dollars they say "Oh, you lovely man." Mr. Charles Bitting was the heaviest bedecked man on the streets last night. He had all the badg-es that could be fast ened on. his coat lapel, and had paid dearly for them. This was because he knew all the ladies and they knew him. In view of this fact he had neglected to divide his dollars into small change in the morning, and as the ladies never gave liack any change, Mr. Bitting was com pletely broke last night. One man went into Musselman's bicycle establishment yesterday and managed to slip by the charity solicitors lis he went in without having to buy a badge. The boys would not let him get out the back door so he studied how to get out with out paying something to charity. Finally he borrowed a badge of a man in the back room and tied it on, thus escaping with out blowing in a cent. "When he got out he gave the badge back to the man he got it from. That was pretty mean. WILL GO TO LAW CATTLEHEX WlLIi FIGHT JKAII. ROAOS. On Xcw Method of Chnrjrin;: for tive stoclc Shipments. Yesterday a new system of charging for tho transportation of live stock was start ed by the railroads and as a consequence all the cattlemen in Southern Kansas and in fact all over Kansas are lot under the collar. Shipments of live stock are now charged for according to their actual weight instead of by the carload. The change will result in (additional revenue for tho railroads west of the Missouri river and will cause a loss of from $3 to $6 a car to shippers. The railroads have toeen trying for j ears to force the change on shippers. They claim that under the carload rates the cars are overcrowded .nd live stock is frequently brought to market in a crippel condition. Shippers claim that a man who has less than a carload of cattle cannot fill the car with hogs, as the rate is different on each and yet will have to pay for the empty space too. A big fight is being organized amonir shippers who will take the matter into court. PROMINENT STOCKMEN HERE Scdjrwiok Comity Old Timers Here on KtisiiM' Yostenlny. Cheney and Garden Plaine and the sur rounding country is one of the most pros perous and fertile districts in Southern Kansas and contains perhaps more well known farmers and large stock breeders Yesterday a quartet from that section visited the city on business. They were John I lessell, a heavy stock dealer and breeder; Harvey Grace, of the well known shipping firm of Grace Bros Cheney; A. B Crawford of Garden Plaine, ntt only a successful stockman, but a prince of good fellows, and Mr. Charles "Wolf, who is one of the influential stock growers and In addition an expert or ohardist and fruit grower. At the street fair held In this city Octover 16 to a, Mr. "Wolf had on display sixteen varieties of fruit, principally apples and pears, and carried off all the first prizes. Mr. Har vey Grace was the host of the occasion yesterday noon and all his companions voted to bring- him up to Wichita again some time. All this group are regular patrons of the Union stock yards of Wichita, but had nothing of importance in jesterday, it being Saturday.

LOCAL IUS013 PART in National Celebration of Hundredth Anniversary OF WASHINGTON DEATH Plans of Biggest Celebration Ever Here. The 14th of this month will be a memorable occasion in the annals of Freemasonry in America, and incident ally one of Importance in the history of the nation. George Washington, the first president of the great republic of the United States, and affectionately termed the Father of iHs Country, died on that date, 1799. He was Master of his lodge at Mt. Vernon, Va., and also High Priest of the local chapter. Masonry has ever since the days of the building of King Solomon's famous temple, counted among the ranks of Ancient and Accepted Ma sons, both operative and speculative, some of the earth's most illustrious names. Statesmen, potentates, kings, famous generals, men of letters, ecclesi astics and jurists are enrolled on the pillars of fame within the sacred pre cincts of her lodges. Solomon himself, King of Israel; Hiram, Kink of Tyre; King Abiff, the Master Builder: clear down to Richard Coer de Leon, Philip de Mollai, Phillip the Bold, Charlemagne, Tancred, Godfrey de St. Omar, Pythag oras, the Young Pretender, and all through the crusades period and me dievial stirring history to that of the young republic of Columbia; in fact all ages and all nations have furnished heroes whose names are a part of the world's great drama, and they were Knights Templar, or craftsmen of the esoteric rite. It is not generally known but all but three of the signers of the Declaration of Independence were Ma sons, and President Washington was among the most zealous and active in the order, forming or allowing to be formed wherever practicable what is known as "Lodges of Emergency" in the early Continental army. Away back in 1S93 the grand lodge of Colorado sent out communications to all the sister grand jurisdiction suggesting a universal cele bration of Washington's death. One at a time each and all of the grand bodies have taken up this matter and all voted to celebrate with public honors this event. All will send both delegate rep resentation and funds to Mt. Vernon, at which time the most resplendent and elaborate ceremonies will be conducted Uuut-i- the auspices direct of the grand lodge of Virginia, with the local lodge assisting. Kansas, as usual, is first in the field, and at Its last session of the grand lodge, A. F. A. M., held at Leavenworth, voted a liberal fund, about the largest of any of the states, to assist the Virginia sister to celebrate with fit ting pomp and respect so important a Masonic landmark, in the Year of Light, 5S99. Those who will leave to represent Kansas at these imposing ceremonies are as follows: Colonel H. C. Loomis, Win field, Most Worshipful Grand Master; A. K. Wilson, Topeka, Right Worshipful Grand Secretary; Judge A. H. Ellis, Be loit. Right Worshipful Past Deputy Grand Master; J. C. Posthlewaite. Jewel City, Most Worshipful Past Grand Mas ter, and W. M. Shaver, Topeka, Most Worshipful Past Grand Master. Many other illustrious Iwnsa3 Masons who have reached a high rank in the order will go independently, but the above five will be official representatives. In addition to this there has been sent out from the grand east of the grand lodge, an official communication to all subordinate lodges in this jurisdiction urging upon all that they celebrate tho hundredth anniversary In fitting man ner. Wichita has already planned and arranged for a splendid public ceremonial session, a full program of which will be announced in due time, the details of which are as yet not fully completed. Suffice it to say that the first city in the state in Masonic circles will sustain her high rank and do fitting honors to one of the most venerated Masons Amer ica has produced, as well as a great statesman and military commander. The official assignment of the three local lodges for the committee of publicity who will regularly make furfher public announcements are as follows: W. H. Harrison, Latham and C E. BIgelow.

Tried Again for J,hotojrraph8--Good Word for Wichita Detectives Si ri A warrant was sworn out In the city court yesterday against the alleged Clearwater bank burglars. Jim Scanlin, AT, Callahan, Shorty Wayne and Prank Deneen. They fiere immediately brought into court to answer guilty or not gu'lty, and each of them answered not tnlty. Their preliminary heanng was tet for next Saturday at 9 o'clock. The officers tried again to get photo graphs of the prisoners, but were unsuc cessful. The prisoners created a lively scene and would have fought a dozen men before they would have submitted to such a deal. The four prisoners were brought over from the county jail hand cuffed two and two. Jim Scanlin and M. Callahan were handcuffed to gether and Shorty Wayne and Frank Deneen were coupled with an other pair of handcuffs. The photog rapher, S.1t. Harry Pottinger, was ready with Iris camera, and Policemen Smith and Aspy, City Courl Marshal Scbad. and his assistant, Tom Voss. and Deputy Sheriff Syl Dunkin were on hand to com pel the prisoners to submit to the cam era, but the 30b couldn't be done without serious trouble. Shorty Wayne twisted his face in all manner of shapes, pulled his hat down over his eyes, and squirmed around like an eel M. Callahan, the tall man of the bunch, got ready to use his feet on the first man that tackled him. Detective Tillitson was very anx ious -to get the pictures o fthe men but he said after the officers failed that he would simolv brine nersoiis here who could identify them and that would set tle their dough. County Attorney Amidon is satisfied he will be able to convict the four men on the evidence that has been worked up against them. It is considered that De tective Harry Sutton, who is an expert in getting not only men but evidence, has done one of the neatest Jobs on this case, that has ever been done ih this city, although the important evidence that will be used in tfte trial Is of course not given out to the public. "I tell you," said County Attorney Amidon jeterdaj, "local talent has done itself proud on finding evidence with which to convict these men. The Wichita detectives and police force have worked hard, especi ally Detective Sutton, and they hae done their work simply as a matter of local pride. There is no reward in it for them, and while the outside detec tives have been interested in the case, and paid by the Arms that had tie in surance on the safe, the real hard and efficient work has been done right here by homo men." Detectives Cairns, Wood, Sutton -and Assistant Chief of Police :Ma?sey have all been scouring -the dark places of these alleged burglars and they have thoroughly covered ie case from the beginning to the time the warrant was sworn out. One.pt the Kansas City detective? thpugTif he kneV'a gre"at deal about bank "robbers and their methods and tried to lead the officers off on the wrong track, and probably would had it not been for Detective Sutton. Sutton would not budge from the first impres sion he had of the case and it seems that his line of work has been vindicated by the facts since brought -to light. Deneen claims that he once practiced law and knows a thing or two about how to proceed with his case. Scanlin is a fine looking young man and is refined m his manners. While the other prisoners wanted to talk back to the attorney and Judge yesterday Scanlin sat quiet and never said a word. Almost Dead Now Happy, as a Girl. 1 -r JLarae, Ark., Ztfarcli 16, 1S99.

It is natural that a woman should want to be attractive, but she cannot be atrractive'unless she is healthy. All the powder and paint and lotions in the world will not make a woman really attractive because they cannot make her well. Wine of Cardui strikes right at the root of women's complaints. It relieves falling of the womb, irregular menstruation, leucorrhcea and all other ills peculiar to the womanly organs. These organs are exceedingly dehcate and sensitive, and any irregu larity there is speedily communicated to the entire being. Severe pains in the back, and lower limbs, cramps, and, bearing down feelings in the lower abdomen are symptoms that call for Wine of Cardui. They are warnings that are dangerous to ignore. The pain is sharp because it is necessary that you heed the warning. Wine of Cardui always has brought speedy relief and permanent cure. For advice in cases requiring special directions, address, giving symptoms, The Ladies' Advisory Department," The Chattanooga Medicine Co., Chattanooga, Tenn.

THOMAS' INVENTION Automatic Scheme to Trnin Pnmpi and Keep From Freeziiijr. Mr. G. B. Thomas of 53 South Water street has just invented an automatic apparatus for draining pumps below the freezing line, an arrangement that has always been sought bj the leading pump manufacturers of the country, but which ha3 heretofore baffle dthe best mechanical skail. Mr. Thomas' invention is said to be the only one ever known to drain the water back into the well without destroy ing the vacuum. Philosophy teaches that to vent a auction line destroys the va cuum, but this point is positively over come by ihe new invention. It not only drains the supply pine above the cylinder, but all the water standing in the pipe -with tha exception of what is In the cylinder, thereby retaining the priming and getting rid of ihe stagnate water stand in the welL The mechanism is .simplicity itself and Impossible to get out of order, as the weht of the water and atmospeblc pressure operates it. It can fee applied to any pump. Another feature Is that It drafts ick to the well, and ihus does away with the foul pit always around well made by draining. Mr. Thomas was raised in Newark. Ohio, and has been In the machine buir.ess all Ms life, until recently, havine been with the B. C. Pump Manufacturing company. CASACMHEIPEDTO'WIN Played in AVet Point Annapolis Foot ball Team emrdaj.

The axe 1 lawyers, and most of them old members. But Mr Lonp Is one of the number. Atnon the others are Mr. Hep ftHirn of Iowa. Mr. Payne of New York, chairan of the house committee on ways and means; Mr. Dalxell of Pennsylvania, who is second on this committee; Mr. Tayicr of Ohio, chairman of the house oosamittee on elections, and successor in the house to McKinley from the Eighth Ohio district. These gentlemen have been assiduously dieting up the facts and precedents, and have had meetings to discuss the matter. At these different meetings, acting on the soggesUon o$ Colonel Henderson, those members hare prepared briefs, or statements, of the lav,- in the case. Mr. Lone has devoted much time to a careful study of the prop osition, white many others have been ntehlng into print without preparation on the question, and the following author ised interview with him will be read with ranch interest: "It is' admitted that B. H. Roberts in 1S was convicted of polygamy under the Edmunds" act and served a term of imprisonment. Under Section S of that act. he was disqualified to hold any ofiice in the territory or under the United States. He could only be made eligible to hold omce by a pardon from the president. President Harrison ta 1391 issued a foil and general pardon to all persons lbfcbte to the penalties of the Sdcaoads act, but upon the express con dition that thoy had abstained from un lawful cohabitation since Xovraber 1. 121ft. and would continue to ob-v thN -w in future. President Cleveland in te also granted fan pardon to al persons who had been convicted under th El mands' act aad were then s-ufferi 15 de privation of civil rights in coc-ncc the same, except persons who had not complied with the conditions of President Harrison's proclamation. If Mr Roberts has not complied with the conditions of these proclamations, but has coo tinned to live in polygamous relations since ISM, he is not included among the persons pardoned by Presidents Harrison and Cleveland, bet is, at the present time, dis qualified and ineligible to hold oinee. A member of oongrdss may be disqualified under the constitution or the laws of the United States, and be ineligible to bold his seat in the house of representatives. There have been numerous cases in the history of the house where objection has been made to the swearing-in of a member-elect npon the -round that he is in eligible and disqualified. The procedure has been to require the person who was objected to. to stand aside and have the whole matter referred to the "committee on elections when appointed. If Mr. Roberts is ineligible, die objection should be made whoa he presents himself to take the oath of oOee. The matter should be referred to the committee on elections with power to mvaeOgate and ascertain all the facts, if ho is ineligible, the seat can be declared vacant. Xn the mean time, he Trill not be wora in. "out wHl await the report -of the committee ad the action of the house as to his right to take the oath. Thi- is the pr-pr varv to pursue, in my opinion.

Nothing like her ever existed on earth, or beneath the earth, or anywhere else, or ever wliL She has all the sangfroid of the most uncon scionable drummer that ever passed through western Kansas, and she has more nerve than a Wichita street car magnate. She will make all sorts of statements and will insist that there if no other place on earth quite like her pleasant, coxy, neat and well-furnished rooms. Besides, she will point oat with the greatest pride that some senator, or jdember So-and-So "lived with me s- many years."

ipte WiitMin ll&ilxj &it jimtet&t Xpncv&njs Ipetjemfor 3;X893 II Mo JIuii i ULLUuii Pollock Himself Says Is Una dulterated Knocking. SAYS IT IS NOT CORRUPTION But the Lack of It That .Hurts His Accusers, Guthrie. O. T., Dec 2. Colonel "William, J P .llock. the Osage Iadiaa agent whose cffir.al conduct has recently undergone a Earchisg investigation as a result of a Vfter fight for the purpose of seeurins Is removal, does not express any par- -zr concern over the result, and con-i.C'-i'ly asserts that he -will not be re ir. ved. Colonel Pollock was in Guthrie eserday on "business connected with the I n.ed States marshal's office and spoke r f the fight heing made upon Mm, as part f a scheme to secure his removal as 'ent "by a certain element who have, he pes been checkmated in their de s to rob the Indians of their money i property. He eaid: "There Is no ger r,t my removal. I have disbursed I- ans and employes nearly 51.0W.OM v 1 r t a cent has fceen paid out that f .nr t be traced to a legitimate end. I 1 1 e .nurred the displeasure of a num 1 r persons becaus.e.2 have been too !g":t for their proftr in suppressing n liquor traffic among the Indians. Med- f-m intruders whoe chief occupation t cause strife, dissension and unreot s-n? the Indians have bean removed f- m the reservation by my orders and j- f. -f.en warned to return no more ex- -i on missions of friendship and good- the officials and wards. The de "zjzr I f ir my removal is not made by real e-zi -f the Indian, or by those who i r a clean administration of affairs, it ra her by a hungry horde who wish secure as my successor a person whom ran manipulate to their own satis- f3in and profit. The Oklahoma poll- rr; have always been anxious to con-- I h.e patronage of the Osage country r 1 rA an Oklahoma man is appointed e nt at F&whuska I presume the fight v xntmue. I was appointed from j ngton. D. C. I have been connect c 1 w. h the Indian department for a r -r of years and until I came in con- "R 'h the Oklahoma contingent my I -g'-.tt was never questioned." DEACON SLOCUM'S DANDER IS UP He Thinks the Geary Conference Iid the Indians an Injustice. IT Feno, O. T., Dec The Beacon 1 lke the editor of the Eagle- to 3 i ack a few yeans and try to re- i all the turmoil and strife that c s the surface when county attor- r s -J.zi detectives to ferret out where I r was kept for sale or barter. Men yl been friends for a great number j rs became enemies all on account r r"' trifling fellow who for the sake t i fw pieces of silver gave evidence them for drinking a social glass together. At the recent conven- f Indian worker? held at Geary, was taken looking to the suspen- drunkenness among the Cheyenne An,ahoe Indians. If there is any- that riles me it is such clap-trap The convention went further iat it appointed a committee of nes to solicit subscriptions to ..te a fund to be used in the wa it of 'detectives the aune old bat was worked In Kansas. The e also reported at the c5'en jt "much drunkenness prevailed g tne Indians." In the name of all pure and holy, where- are there iken Indians is or near Darling- j -"icy 7 ame one. just one. ana I i-on will promptly acknowledge -e is wrong. The Deacon is inti- acquainted with more Caeyennes A-.rahoes than any member of that r T. seK-appolnted to make them rebates and drunkards of tbe pe, and, furtaermore, he is no; n say right now, that If there are 'n under the jurisdiction of the n agency who like their toddy first taught it by employes of g n rrment who got drunk them- nd brought the whleky to their and hid it where the Indians i drank it. An Indian te some-k--- a young man who was brought i prohibition state, and there are 'hem at rresent who were raise! government school In tbe holy Lawrence, Kansas. "When tbe "un returns from school he tells aw and then induces others to e white mn does. The rood who take such an Interest in i 1 welfare -of the Indian, for rev- should took deep d-wtn vnto -h. depths of their own closets and t ir tV cannot find a place that ha t n swept out as clean as some of I' d.an netehbors-. The Deacon will w ...i, .w. ery closly the actions of the nted committee, and when ac- -ouht against ome innocent n V will place the full facts before t r l" in the coldest kind of type. T Iracon received a very kind letter r day from his Irish friend. Den- rn. who te vow In Washington j -r around seeiiuc what he can do getting; votes for hie free homes Dennis eays in his letter: T- '-sr Dencoo: I wuld gladly do i!d toward getting your peerless before the members of cou th the rural districts, but. as I -p, my time will tie fully occn-ffttrit;- sreod the promises I ih pepfi last fan. and really the time to look after the pri sts of my friends. When the and statehood bOts are dis there is any favnr I can do i in Oklahoma. I wfll aiadly -t I must hut down on the ap- f i I am retvtng every day for ranging from governor of one elands tn the Philippines, to chief -t an Indian agency. id of Dennis remarked ye Mai day v:e Irish folks we sent to Washiag- ts -e getting to the fore at a very ,-i't Detmls is on three good oc Indian affairs, public lands tories. If there Is a man in the States who Is better posted oa -ffalra" than Dennis Ylynn. he hlraeeK tn hiding. Dennis cthy ax the Indians want, he x- tny Issvo been swlndtod, and Kno'sss tho class of people that k 1 3r fc-5 e- tent among them to enlicatenO j 3 them in the ways of the white man. Dennis is also well posted on the "public lands" question. In the last six years it has been, his constant study, and if there is a foot cf public land in Oklahoma which he has not been over it must be out in Greer county where H. D. SIc Knight, register of the land office, re sides. If the Deacon remembers rightly, ilr. 3IcXnight( not Jake) received three little votes in the convention of farmers that nominated Dennis Flynn. 3Ir. ITc Knight dd not have the ghost of a show lor the nominatii then, nor would he have now. Dennis told the De-con over in Okla homa City these identical words: "Dea con, I will never again, while I live, be a delegate to congress from the terri tory of Oklahoma." And I believed him when he said it. for it is the general opinion that before congress adjourns Ok lahoma -Rill be a state; consequently Dennis will not have to go back to Wash ington as a delegate. Burtillion C. Underbill, the obese and handsome hustler for the Dold packing house, and the Deacon, took a litt e jauat last week down the Rock Island. Bert went to sell his preserved meats and I to sell, if I could, .the peerless separator. "We stopped off at the thriv ing little town of 31inco, L T., and both did s. good business. Burtillion seemed to know everybody and every merchant gave him the glad hand. In every store we entered we saw no other kind of pork, lard or sausage than Dold's. In front of every establishment the Dold signs hang out prominently. After doing the town of Minco we hired a cheap man to drive us to Chickasha. That is a great town there is no mistake about it. Everything is hurry and bustle there, and from what I could find out the town will soon be incorporated. The merchants were doing a rushing business, but took time to talk about their town. One mer chant told us that he had, on an aver age, twenty people a day come to him asking when the country was going to be opened for settlement. He also stated that three years ago it looked awful blue for Chickasha, but now everything was lovely. Burt did a rushing business in Chickasha. He caught the town when It needed hams. lard, sausage and bacon. The merchants all say they have never had to take back an ounce of any of Dold's goods on account of impurity or for any other cause. Everything v,ith the Dold brand on it is in great demand, and from what I could learn the Dold pro ducts are the only ones the ranchmen and cowmen will use. This speaks mighty well for the Wichita enterprise. Every town we visited it was the same story. Burt had no trouble to sell his goods, but I .bad a rollicky time selling separators. The Hon. Thomas Ryan, assistant sec retary of the interior, with a party of ladies and gentlemen, took in the sights at Mountain View, El Reno and Darl ington this week. Mr. Ryan was agree ably surprised with the looks of the bustling little town of Mountain View, destined at no distant date to be the greatest town on the "Washita. "When Mr. Ryan and his party arrived in town he was welcomed by the firing of .guns, and dynamite toombs were fired at in terval. The whole town turned out to do honor to the distinguished visitor, and everybody took a hand in putting out the finest edibles and drinkables in the land. Mr. Ryan expressed his opinion that the town of Mountain View was all right and that as far as he could see tbe gen tlemen who laid out tha town were cor rect as to the survey, and his opinion was that the location would be a per manent one. This is good newp for the merchants and others who were instru mental in liHiKHng the town. Mr. Ry an's little talk has raised the hopes of a great many and work will commence im mediately on the improvements that were dropped when the contest case came up.

eST 3?fee WMMiu Sails garde! jfm-Ias Pfamfttg; ifccemtiev 3, X839 13 is Interesting Romance of a Beautiful American Grrl. "And in the end love -won." This sentence was repeated trith amazement, -with pleasure, with unbelief at the horse chow last week, says the Kew York Journal. It followed the announcement of Cora Randolph's engagement to "Trimble Richard, treas., 34 Pine, h. 5S E. 25." as the directory puts it. She had been dubbed the "idol of the Pour Hundred," and her titled suitors have been more than she could count on her fingers. They are more numerous than the countries through which she has pasted and wherein she has lived. She might have been, spite the traditions of his religion and his country, the only wife of the only brother of the Khedive of Egypt. She might have wedded an Indian Ra jah and owned the most magnificent black pearl ever the property of woman. Her hand has been sought by a prince of the house of Bourbon, by noblemen of Russia, by a duke in England, by men of lesser title In many lands, and by Americans of Intelligence, of wealth, of position. Cora Randolph, the "Idol of the Four Hundred," has perplexed them all by an nouncing within the week her engage ment to Mr. Richard Trimble. The society which Mrs. Stayvesant Fish astonds cleverly, which Mrs. John Jacob Astor adorns charmingly, which Mrs. Ogden Mills amuses wittingly, is asking with abated breath, "Who is he?" Who is this Richar Trimble whom e beautiful, the witty, the graceful Cora Randolph has selected after scorning peers of the realm and the matches of America? Richard Trimble is the secretary and treasurer of the Federal Steel company, at No U Pine street. He is a man of about forty, having been at Harvard es a member of the claas of '8. He is tall, straight, of a type somewhat pronounced, recalling John Drew wnen that actor wore a mustache. To an old Quaker fam ily Richard Trimble belongs. He" could neither fee described as wealthy nor a so ciety man. Indeed, gossips predict, unless some strange decree of fate interposes, that he will for many years be known as "Cora Randolph's husband." The lady who has decided to confer upon him this honor is the second daugh ter f Mr. and Mrs. Edmund Randolph, of Mount St. Vincent, on the Hudson, and also a daughter of the gods, divinely fair. At Mrs. Stuyve.ant Fish's, where peo ple are frank, some one asked one even ing. "What's the greatest charm in wo man?" And it was answered. "Cora Ran dolph's amiability!" cried the crowd of gueesers. Cora Randolph is not only amiable; she is also witty. The combination has given to her the pseudonym of the "idol of the Four Hundred." At that annual festival known as the Portrait Show. Richard Trimble first came Into her life, or, more properly speaking-, she came Into his Had one known him as Cora Randolph's fiance he might have been remarked wandering slowlyi among beautiful women immortal ized by the hands of noble artists. Gazing with critical eyes at one and then at another he moved through the great halls -of the Academy of Design. Curiously his eyes strayed from living forms that moved gracefully in and out, welcoming guests, guiding strangers, to the -painted beauties who looked down upon- them from glided frames. Exqui site women were there. Mrg. Burke Roche, never to be forgotten in white, half turned toward him; Mrs. Clarence Mackay, glowing vividly under t mas ter hand of Chartran, smiled upon him; Mlas Schermermorn, delicate in a pastel whose deepest tone was a faint pink; looked at him gravely. He turned from them all. suddenly transfixed. Richard Trimble stood enraptured be fore 'a painting which recalled faintly tho celebrated "Girl with a Muff," by Madame Vlgee iLebrun. Only this one had eyes that beneath curbs of brown captivated him! Her lips were moulded to enthrall him. The turn of her head chained him where j he stood. Her brow, her throat,, her figure riv eae! his ayes. But he was only one of crowd. He stood unnoticed. A thousand others had admired the girl with the nutL la loss time than it takes to write the act Richard Trimble had learned a name he has never forgotten. Cora Randolph sounded in his ears like the sweetest music. Somehow. somewhere, two days later they met. Was it acciaent? The sod of love, who is as strategic as the god cf war, had discovered to Richard Trlmb'e that his old familiar friend, Edmund Randolph, was own brother to the te wftcbtag Cora. The coaquctsu of Cora Randolph had laade aer a figure m society. At the relebrated Bradley Martin hall she is recalled- enchantinsly in sables and cloth cf gold, a personage of the Freeh Court in Empire day. Recently in Austria, at the highest functions, 'she wa a beUe anonfr belle. At the opera here it was remarked of her tat ahe carried herself as a princess vtkoaid. 9be had a court of her own. Richard Trimble was but another name on the list of her courtiers. oe more -victim to be added to those ground under the ch-ulot wheels of the entrancing belle She had been abroad a dosen times. She had roue with her friend. Mrs. Potter Palmer, she had been with her friend, Mas) Stupvesant Fish. She had 9ed in Paris aha in London. Tired of both, and her lovely, home. Mount St. Vincent, on the Hudson, she suddenly determined to sail for Egypt. Richard Trimble saw her set oS one late fall dav. He had the catisfarttat oX waring his hat amen? a hundred oth ers from the whart She -was gota? to tempt yet asain the pod of love; he was a-otar to conquer with fcls best, endeavors the sod of goML Thefcr paths were as widely separated as gossips predicted they would be. Cora Randolph led to Catro. Her ad vent there was the sfeaaltl for die heatu atng of a suit at once strange and extra ordinary DeBcfttetr nd todeserfiMMr America! from to -wn of her brown hair to th curves of her slender figure. Coca Randolph sontmaned to her rest by merely raiding her blue eyes fringed In a wealth of dark lashes. Uehemet AH. nmatser of the imperial house of Turkey. Hfe courtlnc was fierce, aabtex Ms hat Wood. He made no secret of the are of Us instantaneous admirata a. It catscseiB through his Mps in rapturous eJaaanoe and proclaimed Itself la the rSafcst a his brother's court. Bfe Brother Is .he present Khedive. game years ago he married a beauttfui 1 hwwpnifd. To them hawe been hem odtv glzis, A W5ais my z.zx s..4 Jie throne of Egypt. All this had been whis pered in the ears of Cora Randolph when Mehermet All, next In line of the royal house, offered his hand to this fair daughter of the Four Hundred. There was nothing subtle about his courting; it was violent, tempestuous, threatening. "Marry me," he cried, "or I Till kill myself and you." He offered with his hand a probable sovereignty in Epypt; Xubla and Soudan. The throne of Cleopatra, once tendered to Miss Wanamaker of Philadelphia,, now beckoned to Cora Randolph, of Mount St. Vincent on the Hudson. Mehemet swore if she would marry bim to abjure a time-honored custom to dis pense with the three other wives allowed him by the laws of his country The sacrifice was complete. Americans In Cairo rejoiced at the honor of their countrywoman. Their countrywoman plajed with fire for a. week, then she packed up her trunks and fled to what she calls civilization. To Paris Mehemet followed her, pro testing, adoring, threatening. Flatly and firmly Miss Randolph de clined the honor he presented. The Prince raved hotly. Day after day he swore he -would shoot to save the rep utation of his house. Day after day he vowed he would die of despair. The beautiful American was obdurate. From that time it was rumored that Cora Randolph was reserving herself for a match even more brilliant. She was capable of anything. She was a siren whose charms could never be withstood. She had but to make up her mind to con quer and, behold, no man could with stand her. Only the year before she had refused the Maharajah of Kapurthaia. Xot e whit had Cora Randolph, a descendant of the Randolphs of colonial days, been dazzled by the magnificence of his Indian jewels nor by the splendor of his Ori tenal imagery. She laughed him to scorn as she had all the others. In the ballrooms of England she tiad created havoc. The salons of Paris had held distin guished scions who sighed for. and maid ens whose hearts were jealous of her. JJewTork, had linked her name with that of a distinguished diplomat, whose stories she had the v. it to laugh at properly and to appreciate discreetly. She had been reported engaged to a multi-millionaire, -who later married a beautiful Phlladel phian who now often acts as her chap eron. She had been given toy society to young Cambridge Livingstone. Upon all these, reports which bestowed her hand po graciously Cora Rajidolph had for years smiled enigmatically. For the refusal of this catch or that various reasons were assigned, and at the end of, them all the inevitable summing np included the prediction that Cora Randolph would one day astonish even the glkled world by the magnificence of her match. If she had confidantes they guarded her secret, for while her engagement -was re ported to this or that reigning title no murmur of Richard Trimble crept out to demolish the picture of her as a duchess or a princess. Behind the doors of his business office he was silent, if Indeed he dreamt, that for (him were palaces and gems denied. Last summer the beautiful Cora Ran dolph spent among1 the great trees of her father's rambling house at St. Vincent, on the Hudson. For three months her friends scarcely knew of her. She rode her horses over the country roads. She Tead her books which fBI the cases that surround her favorite room and which overflow them, lying about on every table ready to their owner's hand. Therefore, -when Mrs. Stuyesant Fish Is about to give some unique entertainment she sends for Cora Randolph; when Mre. John Jacob Astor wants to make her din ner a special success she invites Cora Randolph; when Mrs. Ogden Mills is par ticularly anxious to avoid a dull moment she sends for Cora Randolph. She is one of the few women in society who can tell a good story and really con verse in these days when conversation is a lost art Add to cleverness undeniable beauty and you have, perhaps, all the key needed to the secret of Miss Randolph's extra ordinary success in society .for some ten years past She has an unusual figure, cast in the mould of a Diana. She is athletic, tali, and bears charmingly her height of five feet eight inches. Her waist Is so' small that It would have passed measurement with those of our grandmothers to their disparasement. And her reet are only less renowned though no more wonderful than Trilby's. She wears a Xo. 2 shoe over an instep that arches with sculptur ed grace. It was another suitor. He had been in Xew York from. England not a week. He had met Miss Randolph but an hour. In that hour he had lived a lifetime. He had beheld an exquisite creature gowned in fawn-colored cloth made Princess, which doubtless he could never have described. He only knew that it fell in one line from the turn of her adorable neck to the tip of her tiny foot, disclos ing the lines of grace that an artist courts. He was not an artist, and yet they were so palpable he could discern them for himself. He saw them revealei In spite of a great sable collar that was turned back from a rest of white chiffon. Over her brown hair Miss Randolph had a turban of sable. She was a harmony of brown, except for a touch of turquoise velvet that matched her eyes. The young man sighed, and tor the first time la his life, he said afterward, realised that he was looking at a perfectly dressed wo man. This has been said of Miss Randolph be fore. Although not wealthy, she has a style that sets many a woman with bet ter clothe to wonderinr why she doesn't make as much effect. Miss Randolph is tathitnaily Aeen In only one color many aaes of those tints known as mastic. Grays, mauves, beige are peculiarly hers. They bring out the golden tints in her brown hair, which ahe wears pampadour Lmhrcn, off the forehead. Or.c aain this season she has been seen at a big function. In. a striking cos tume of Mack: liberty satin, combined with white lace, she appeared at a dm ne. It was her hwt appearance unfet-t-rtc 'At that dinner was Richard Trim ble He mest hare marveled that be could have won a vision so radiant a Cora Randolph on that Oceanian.

To the woman who wants to succeed, Ella Wheeler Wilcox writes in the New York Journal: All wordly success is comparative Every man sees men above him and be low him. There seems to be no lowest and no highest rung In the ladder of success. The errand boy Tegardajthe compositor as a capitalist, and the compositor thinks he would be happy to attain the proof reader's position in life. Yet the managing editor of our largest dailies Is a poor man in the eyes of the railroad magnate, who in turn Is nobody in the opinion of somebody with more millions and ancestors. All men and women who have achieved accustomed to being askec by oeginners in the same field for advice and coun sel how to succeed. Very often the people so questioned feel themselves to be failures In life; but the wisest counsel may as well proceed from the mouth of the vanquished as from that of the victor. It is the man who has stumbled that knows the pitfall It is easier to tell how you have failed than how you have succeeded; and it Is easier to tell people what not to do than j what to do. When the matter of "good advice" !a sifted we find only a few old familiar grains of wheat left and they are the time-worn maxims we learned in our copybooks as children at school. We are given to sneering at platitudes in this age, and e sometimes forget that principles are platitudes. We despise the commonplace, yet the virtues are commonplace qualities, when we come down to facts. It is easy to imagine the expression of disgust upon the countenance of an end-of-the century youth who should be told that "honesty Is the beft policy" by the millionaire whom he asked for advice in beginning a business career Who has not listened to a lovely strain of music, practised ovr and over, until it lost all melody and significance to the ear, and became only a monotony of sound? Yet the melody was still there. It Is so with old precepts. Their truth is Inde structible, though y.c have heard them so often they become trite and stupid to our minds. It would be weH for the scores of young women setting forth today upon artistic careers to remember this fact. They are eager for counsel; they want to be told the shortcut to success; they prate about "influence" and think "a friend at court" the first step toward the place they crave In the Temple of Art; but they do not Hke to be told patience. Industry, a high sense of honor, a spirit of independence and avsolute veracity, are all desirable qualities for a woman who expects to make a name In the world, to cultivate. Nevertheless, at the risk of being thought stupid, and commonplace, and prosy, by these ambitious young aspirants for rec ognition in the Court of Fame, there are a few old platitudos I am geing to resur rect for their consideration. In the first place, do not ask adice. Look about jou, and observe people whom you admire and wish to emulate, and those whom you do not admire, and whose example you would avoid. Look within your heart, and listen to the voice of your conscience, which is your best self. You have heard this sen tence a thousand times, I dare say, yet you have seen the sun mount In the heavens many thousand times, and you do not despise light, or know how to live without it. Do not imagine you can build a worthv future without respecting the voice of your conscience, trite though its prompt ings be. Do not think because some woman has attained success which seems enviable to you that everything she does must be the right th'ng for you to do. If black .otfee makes you 111 do not force yourself to drink it because the successful woman does! You have heard it said that "nothing succeeds like success." But in order to carry out the truth of that saying do not cultivate untruthfulness in your state ments abqut your own prosperity and success. Boaatfulness Is not classed as lying, perhaps. In your lexicon, but I have ob served that the dividing line between the two voices is liable to become indistinct. Do not imagine because you can paint, write, sing or create music that the ma teiial world owes you a living, unless you earn it honestly; or that by your own stock in he beautifu I the useful should pay you dividends and consider it 9. favor. Of all things avoid giving the impres sion that because you are a woman and an artist you feel- that no business meth ods are expected of you. There should beni consideration of sex in the business world. If you borrow money, borrow it like a finsneter, gtve your note and pay Inter- est. If you borrow a dime, or postage stamp, consider it quite as Important to make payment as if you had borrowed a hundred dollars, not that your creditor is in need of the dime or the stamp, but because you need this moral training of exact integrity. You may prrsuss friends who so sd-mi-e ami respect your talents that they wil. gad!y share home and fortune with yeo, iwut treir respect for you win aim- inish In spate of themselves if you forget j enal business obligation. j Accept thett hospitality and love rifts i In the spurn in which User are offered, j but If you sorrow a car fare make It j xeP?pVs duty to return It, not in ordr j to re-rot o.Cb them, but to keep the un- r "y0,nm 'f T- Atom dbt. f-mafl or great.
