J) 10 CENTS A WEEK, NIGHT EDITION. TOPEKA, KANSAS, MONDAY EVENING. JUNE 4, 1894. TWENTY-SECOND TEAK. FBEEJLVER Unst Be the Battle Cry of Eepublicanism, Says Wm. Higrgins, Ex-Secretary of State. HIGGINS IS SIIKEWD. Ninety Per Cent of the Kansas People Are For free Silver Says Mr. Mligrsins, Therefore It Must Go Into the Republican Platform. Ex-Secretary of Stat William Higgins has been listening with the ear of a trained politician to what the masses of the people are saying, and he has heard enough to convince him that Kansas is overwhelmingly for the free coinage of American silver. Mr. Higgins ia to be one of the most prominent men in the coming Republican state convention. He ia alwaya one of the beat informed men on Kansas Repub lican politics, lie arrived in town yes terday and-is at the Copeland dressed in a new suit of clothes. To a State Jocrsai. reporter Mr. Higgins said: "Free silver ia to be the key note of this convention. This ia the issue upon which the Republicans of Kansas, with a good ticket can march to victory. For the last tive months I have been making a study of this financial ques tion and I know what I am talking about. I know as many farmers aa any other man in the state and I am convinced that t0 per cent of the farmers of Kansas are in favor of free silver American silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. I have been writing letters to my friends over the state and they all tell me they are for free silver. "Tom Reed and Henry Cabot Lodge are already traveling the right road. It is true a good many down east Republi c :md eastern newspapers will howl if Kans Republicans stand for free silver, l... wh i; do we care about the east? We inuai. laive care of our ourselves, and this convention is going to adopt a platform we can all stand on. There ia no sense in sticking any longer to the Capital'a gold ideas when all the people are op posed to that policy. "If we have a free silver plank in our platform we can htld all tne votea we had two years ago and get back thou sands of others who left the party before. "It ia not only the farmers who are anxious for free silver, but the people in the towns are catching on to that idea; even the bankers, some of them, are for free silver. The two things the people believe iu are free silver and a high protective tariff. If we build a plat form with those principles in the front, and leave out the unnecessary trash, we can with a good ticket sweep the state. "In regard to prohibition. Well per sonally you know what I think about prohibition, but that will have to be set tled in the convention, and I believe it will be settled without a tight, and that prohibition will not be mentioned. The Populists won't say anything about either prohibitions suffrage. I believe that the suffrage amendment ia going to carry, but it should not be made a party issue" by putting it in the platform. That's what's the matter with prohibition; it haa been killed by making it a political issue. "1 have been keeping tab on the Pop ulist county conventions, and of all their conventions held last week, aa many as seventy refused to endorse the plan of putting a suffrage plank in their plat form. "If we put in free silver and high pro- tective tariff planks, and say nothing about prohibition and suffrage, we will steal all the Populist's thunder. Their voters don't care anything about this howl about the state house gang and machine. They understand that their ttate officers must obey the law, and all their actions must be in accord with some specific law. "Outside of the fight on resolutions and platform the principal tight in the convention will be on chairman, a9d on the nomination of congressman at large, secretary of state, auditor and lieutenant governor. "A. W. Smith wants to be chairman of the convention, and some of Morrill's friends would like to see him have it, but Joe Ady wants Petera to be chair man and that brings the senatorial fight into the convention. I am inclined to think someone outside will be chairman; aa since coming here and even before I arrived I have been hearing a very strong eeatiment expressed against allowing the senatorial fight to enter the state conven tion." In regard to the chairmanship of the state central committee Mr. Higgins said: "Jim Simpson want the chairmanship again as a sort of a vindication but he will hardly get it. Cy Leland don't want it himself thia time on account of busi nesi reasons, but he would like to have it given to Bill Sterne. It ia a little too early yet to say where it will go. "In regard to the contest for congressman-at-large, I am inclined to think the chances are between Dick Blue and Ed CJreer. George Douglasa ijs going to have more strength than he has been credited with, but he will hardly get the nomina tion. The people don't want to make the kind of a campaign the nomination of Douglas would i-eeeasitate; they want to go before the people with free silver aa the issue thia vear." THE DUtUAtES COMING. Aitmbllng of th Republican State o n -re u t Ion 11 .ra. The Republican State convention will convene Wednesday noon at Hamilton hall and the delegates are gathering and preparing for the fight over nominations and platform. Thia U to be eae of the greatest con ventions in the history of the party in Kansas, as on the work of the convention depends the fate of the party. If the ticket nominated thia week marches to victory in November on the platform adopted by this convention all will be well, but if the Republicans should loao this year, there ia a possibility that they may not, for some time, perhaps never, get control of the Kansas state government. Every delegate elected to this convention realizes that it ia important that the right men should be nominated and the right platform adopted if it ever was important in the history of auy party. It seems to be a foregone conclusion in the minda of all the delegates who have arrived so far, that Major E. N. Mor rill ia to be nominated for governor and most of the other candidates are al ready calling him ''governor." Major Morrill and his Brown county backers, Cy Leland and John Schilling, arrived at noon and will keep open house at the Copeland until the convention ia over. George Martin and his delegation of Wyandotte county supporters, are ex pected to arrive this evening. All the candidates will have head quarters at the Copeland and most of the headquarters will be open by tomorrow morning. There are to be many new men in this convention and even among the advance guard there ia quite a sprinkling of new faces. Chairman Jim Simpson of the state central committee, is here and building his fences to keep that job from getting outside his corral. Dr. D. W. King, who wants the nomi nation for lieutenant governor, is here and is getting acquainted with the new comers. F. B. Dawes and W. F. Guthrie, the two candidates for attorney general, ar rived yesterday. D. W. Eastman and Otis L. Atherton, candidates for state treasurer, are here, and Bruce .Lynch, wh was the nominee two years ago and wanta the place again this year, is also in town. Billy Edwards, Frank Brown and Cap tain J. S. McDowell, candidates for sec retary of state, are here. McDowell's chief worker is Billy Nelson, of Smith Center, and Billy kuowns how to rustle. Throe candidates for auditor, Tom Kelly. George Cole and H. P. Myton are with the advance guard. The big delegations with brass bands and banners in the interest of the various candidates will arrive tomorrow, and it ia expected there will be as much noise aa there was two years ago when Col. Marsh Murdock brought half the m.tle popula tion of Wichita to Topeka in the interest of his gubernatorial boom. The lieutenants for the candidates for congressmao-at-large are here opening headquariers and preparing for the fight. Geo. W. Jonea of Linn county ia in charge of Dick Blue's forces, and Bill Uackney ia Ed Greer's right hand man. Besides these, however, Douglass and Greer are both on the ground. ALL FOR FREE SILVER. Th People of the State Demand It, Says Hun. r. f. Powers. F. O. Powers, of Wintield, a member of the legislature, ia here, and working for the nomination of Greer for congress-man-at-large. "I Want to predict" he said, "that a free silver plank will be adopted by the Btate convention. The majority of our people are for free silver, and a demand wdl be made for a silver plank. Without being over sanguine I believe that Greer will be nominated. lie will go into the convention with a good force to start with. He will be a strong man for the convention to nominate, and will poll a big vote at home, for he has been an un compromising Republican." RISH IS HOPE FCL. He Thinks He Stands a Good thane of Being Nominated. Senator J. W. Rush thinks he haa a good chance to be nominated for lieuten ant governor. "Edwards got the delega tion from our county. I made no effort to secure it, but 1 think that he is not in the fight for secretary of state. If he can not be nominated I stand a good chance. There will be no one nominated on the first ballot, and if no slate is fixed np I will be in it. I have seen no evi dence of a slate, and I believe it would be broken if fixed.'1 TOR UICK BLUE. The Linn County Delegation Will Work For Hint and Againat Suffrage. Geo. W. Jones heads the Linn county delegation to the state convention, which will fight for the nomination of Blue for congressman at large. "We are against putting either woman suffrage or prohi bition in the platform. All we want is the nomination of Blue, and from what I can learn he has a good chance to be nominated. Our delegation will vote for Morrill, but beyond that we have not made np our minda. KINO WILL ME DOMINATED. At Lout That la What He Saya About It. Tr. D. W. King of Weir City is here and ia satisfied that he liaa the' nomina tion for lieutenant governor within his reach. I am going to be nominated on the first ballot," he said. "The people see that it ia the only thing to da Some one must be nominated who can get the miners' vote and I am satisfied that I can do that. Gov. Lewelling prom ised the miners that they might choose the mine inspector and he re fused to appoint the man they recom mended so they are naturally sore. I live among the miners and was elected mayor of Weir City which ia a Populist town. If I am nominated 1 will carry the southeastern part of the state." TWO PLASKS. One Delegate Who Faron Putting Suf frage and Irrigation In the Platform. Judge D. M. Frost, of Garden City, ia at the head of the Finney county delega tion. "Wo are for Myton for state audi tor and that is all," he said. "I am in favor of putting woman suffrage in the platform, of course. I believe in letting the world know just where we stand. I am also in favor of another thing, and that ia an irrigation plank, and we are going to get it too. Of course we do not expect to get state aid. What we are after is federal help, and we want it made an issue." -1 Judge Frost ia chairman of the State Irrigation association. THIS IS WAR. The Shadows Gather Over Illfated Colorado. Two Armies Confront Each Other at Cripple Creek. Women and Children Removed from the Town. LAWS DISREGARDED. Both Sides Make Arrests and Hold Hostages. Gen. Palmer of the Rio Grande is in Command OF DEPUTIES' ARMY. Johnson, a Graduate of West Point, of the Miners. Cripple Creek, Colo., June 4. A reign of terror exists in this city. Women and children are being removed to places of safety. The general belief ia that the deputiea will advance against the strikers on Bull Hill today or tomor row. It is reported that Gen. W. B. Palmer, who built the Denver Rio Grande rail road and who has an established reputa tion aa a fighter, will be in command of the deputies' army, with Geu. Charles Adams in direct charge of the cavalry. The lighting force on Bull Hill was in creased today by the arrival of seventy eight coal "miners from Fremont county, and now numbers about 1,300 men. A skirmish took place at aa early hour today near the Midland toll gate be tween three miners and five deputies, who were sent out from the main body at Divide aa pickets. Jack Davis, a miner, was shot in the arm and a dep uty was seriously wounded. The depu ties were forced to retreat. Bosides taking Henry E. Woods, pres ident of the Victor townsite company, into custody, the strikers last night seized Clarence O. Finch, county super intendent of schools, and D. E. Wiikins, a Colorado Springs school teacher, and they are now held prisoners ou Bull Hill aa hostages for President Calderwood, or any other miners who may be arrested. John Shorten, editor of the ripple Creek Herald, organ of the miners' union, has beea arrested by the deputies. It is reported here that over 1,000 de puties have taken a train at Divide for Midland, the terminus of the Midland Terminal railway, and will 'proceed at once to Bull Hill. The telegraph office at Divide refuses to send out messages, and the sentinels will not permit any travel between this city and Divide. The deputy wounded in the skirmish today was taken to Midland. Hia name has not been learned. It is stated on good authority that J. J. Johnson, who ia commanding the strikers' forces on Bull Hill, will find himself in the hands of the United States secret service before many days. It is said that Johnson was expelled from West Point for taking part in the hazing of the son of General Logan. Within Six Mile. 3:30 p. m. In spite of the denial from Divide that the deputiea have broken camp, it ia rumored here that they are within six milea of Bull Hill. Couriers who succeed in passing the sentries re port that the deputies left Divide early today. Latent New. Denver, June 4, 3:45 p. m. It is im possible to learn definitely whether the deputies who have been assembling at Divide have moved forward today for an attack on the miners holding Bull Hill and all its approaches, but the report from Cripple Creek that they have done so ia generally credited and it is believed that the inevitable conflict will occur within a few hours. The telegraph operators at Divide and Midland in re ply to messages of inquiry simply: "I can tell nothing." The telegraph offices are in the hands of deputies, who will not allow messages to be sent except such aa they approve. Preparatlona for War. Colorado Springs. Colo., June 4. Preparations for war are going rapidly forward here, arms and ammunition are coming in daily. One hundred thousand rounds of ammunition shipped from Chi cago Saturday arrived today. Ritl es and revolvers are coming in daily and further shipments are expected from Chicago tomorrow. Oatllnsf Gun on the Way. La Junta, Colo., June 4. A Gatling gun, 203 Winchesters and a dozen boxes of ammunition from Chicago passed through here today for the use of the deputy sheriffs at Cripple Creek. Fifty Remingtons and fifty thousand cartridgea went through last week. A Call For Troop. Denver, June 4 Sheriff Radford of Las Animas county, has mado a demand upon Gov. Waite for troops. He saya S00coal miners are making threatening demonstrations at the camps in that county, and that hia features are iuade quate to control them. SANTA FE WASIS AID. Mlnersat Streator Interfere With the Running of the Road. Chicago, June 4 The Santa Fe road applied to Judge Grosscup of the Uuited States court today for aid in subduing miners alleged to be interfering with the operation of the road at Streator. Coal City and other Illinois points. The road being in the bands of the court through a receiver, Judge Grosscup ordered United States Marshal Arnold to proceed to Streator immediately with a posse and instructed him to swear in all the depu ties necessary. MY It ON REED'S SYMPATHIES. The Denver Preacher Loses Half His Sun day CoB(r(SlioD. Denver, June 4" Rev. Myron Reed said in his sermon yesterday: "The dep uty sheriff with hi3 Winchester, who through pinch of poverty or politics per haps, or both haa enliated at $5 a day does not quite know what he is doing. The miner upon the barricaded hill has a deep sense that he was there first. My heart goes out to him." About half the audience walked out to show their disapprobation. CALLING IN REINFORCEMENTS. The Miners and Militia are Close To- (ether in Indiana. Indianapolis, June 4 A special to the News from Shelburn says the strik ing miners there are bring reinforce ments from outlying mines by firing an vils aa signals. They expect to have 500 men there by the middle of the after noon, and say no more call cara shall be allowed to go through. The state militia, under command of General McKee, are eight miles away, having gone there by orders of Sheriff Mills. The situation is regarded as critical. MINERS BV THOUSANDS. Congregate at WelLtton, Ohio, to Ask Questions nf a Railroad. Wellston, O., June 4 The largest mass meeting or convention of miners ever seen in this region has gone into session, after a parade which showed the number to be 3,800. The leading matter to be considered ia the hauling of non-union coal from the West Virginia mines. The convention, it is said, will require of the officers of the Norfolk Western road a categori cal answer to questions' whether they in tend to haul West Virginia coal or not. CAPTURED WEALERS. A. Freth Batch of Them Taken in at Ellt. on Sund.r. United States Marshal Neely and Com missioner E. A. Wagener have captured one more army of commonwealers for alleged theft of a railway train; and as the railroad involved ia in the hands of receivers, the men can be dealt with more speedily and with leas red tape than has been the case of the Missouri Pacific vs. Sanders. The railroad is the Union Pacific, and the "army" consists of seventy men who comprise the third regiment of the sec ond division of the California common wealers, from San Francisco. These men stole a Union Pacific train at Watkins, Colorado, Saturday evening. The company's solicitor, A. L. Williams, of Topeka, was notified at once, and he at once began communication with Marshal Neely and Commissioner E. A. Wagener, as well as several of the company's officials. As the result a special train was made up at Kansas City Sunday morning, that reached Topeka at 11:3 J..' Among those who were on the train when it pulled out of Topeka were Marshal Neely, Commissioner Wagener, Claim Agent Jenkins, Solicitor A. L. Williams, Attorney N. II. Loomis, Chief Detective S. S. Peterson and about fifty deputy United States marshals. Eighteen marshals were secured at Topeka. They were headed by Reub Randlett, ex-chairman of the Republican city central committee. The train made a fast run, going at 6ixty miles an hour. At Ft. Riley fifteen stands of arms and ammunition were taken aboard. The train stealers were overtaken at a sidetrack, six miles this side of Ellis, shortly before bundown. On reaching the Coxey train Marshal Neely took a few men and going to where they were seated on top of the box cars, commanded them to get down. Captain Ralaton asked if they were pris oners. Marshal Neely replied that they were United States prisoners, and the men at once complied. They probably expected to be taken east, and were rather pleased at the arrest. Their hopes, however, were not re alized. They were ordered to climb into two box cars, the engine started west, and at 8 o'clock they were at the place they had quitted an hour before. The men were put into a baggage car con nected with the marshal's train, a body of deputies placed on guard, and they were started for Denver. John Ralston the captain of the com pany and Lieutenants Wood and Hardt were taken to Leavenworth. Federal Judge Thomaa of North Dakota, is hold ing court there and the men will be tak en summarily before him on the charge of contempt of court At Denver the privatea will be tried before Judge Ellis on the same charge. Deputy Marshal James Gray, who took the men to Den ver and turned them over to the mar shal of the Colorado district, ia the man who has been in charge of the Sandera prisoners. Commissioner E. A. Wagener arrived in Topeka thia morning at 5 o'clock. He said: "The reason these men are charged with contempt of court is that the Union Pacific is in the hands of the United States circuit court. Every officer of the railroad is an officer of the court, and any interference in the management of the road makes them liable for con tempt. It is here one advantage is seen of having the railroad in the hands of a receiver. The Union Pacific proposes to prosecute these fellows to a finish and make an example of them. The follow ing dispatch was received at the Jour nal office at 3 p. m. today. Leavenworth, Kans., June 4 Mar shal Neely and Deputy Gray have re turned from Ellis, Kansas, with Captain John Ralston, Ed Hart and Frank E. Woods, leaders of the Coxeyites,-, who seized a Union Pacific train in Colorado and rode east to Ellis. The remainder of the band, about fifty in number, were sent to Denver for trial. THREE FIRES. Three times the fire department has been called out since Saturday. At 6:45 Saturday the firemen were called to the Rock Island depot by a false alarm. At 4:03 Sunday morning fire was dis covered in the furniture store of Reed Tomlinson at 510 Kansas avenue. Dam age small. Last evening at 9:30 Box 41 was pulled for a fire south of the fair grounds, lo cated near Twenty-third and Tyler streets. The house, which was owned by J. Thomas and unoccupied, was out oi the reach of water. It v. as totally destroyed. ST. JOEjpKEIr By the Failure ot -Its-Largest Grocery House. Steele Walker Make an As signment Today.- LOSSES VERY UEAYY. The Liabilities Are Estimated at $725,000. A Short Run Started Upon Two of the Banks. St. Joseph, Mo., June 4 At 4 o'clock this morning, Steele Walker, one of the largest wholesale grocery firms on the Missouri made an assignment for the benefit of their creditors, W. W. Wheeler and Beattie Weakley, being named as trustees. At the same time of the filing of the papers of assignment, D. M. Steele and S. A. and J. W. Walker. filed instrumenta conveying all their other property to the trustees- lor the benefit of the creditors. The liabilities of the firm are placed at $725,000, and it is claimed the assets will exceed this amount bv a good' sum. In making the assignment nothing was reserved except the homestead of Mr. Steele, both the Walker's .conveying their residence property I to secure the liabilities. This firm was composed of D. 31. Steele, S, A. Walker and J. W. Walker, and has been regarded as one of the strongest in the west,'D. Steele having been rated at from $720,000 to $1,01)0,000. Cause of the Failure. The failure is the result of lack of con fidence.. At the time of the bchuster failure several weeics ago, when it be came known that he was a heavy debtor to the First National bank, in which bank Steele Walker were both large stockholders, the creditors of the latter firm began to pressing their claims and the failure of this morning was the result. When it was announced today that the firm had made an assignment, a run was started ou the First National and the Central Savings banks, in both 'of which Messrs. Schuster, Steele and Walker were large stockholders. Considerable excitement was caused by the run, and thousands of dollars were withdrawn shortly after the opening hour. Great crowds are gathered around the First National aud Central Savings banks. In the case of the Savings bank, de positors were allowed, to draw but $50, the thirty day rule being enforced on' all checks lor a larger amount. At noon when it beaamj evident that the banks had plenty of money the crowda of depositors dwindled to a jfevy dozen, when before that, time the line had extended far out into-' the street.- It is claimed both banks will pull through and it is hardly likely th6 runs will ex tend to any other banks or last longer than today at most. WICHITA HOUSE CLOSES. A Branch or Steele Walker at That City Shuts Its Doort. Chicago. June 4. Steele .Walker, the wholesale grocers at St. Joseph, Mo., who are reported in trouble, are rated as worth $750,000 to $1,000,000. They had a branch at Wichitia, Kans. Liabilities are put at $750,000, The two St. Joe banks which are sufferi ng ruus, are banks in which they were directors. Wichita, Kan., June', 4 tev'eele Walker's branch house has closed here on account of the failure of the t. Joe house. STATE MILLERS HERE To Consider the Pnthlne of Kansas Sard Wheat in Niv .England. The Kansas 6tate miller's association is in session at the National. The question of most importance to be considered is the introduction of Kansas hard wheat on the New England market. A temporary organization for that pur pose has been made. It is called tiie Kansas Consolidated Hard Wheat Miller's association, and E. A. Colbuin.of Mc Pherson is chairman. A permanent jor ganization will be made at this session. The organization will only include the millers who manufacture flour from Imrd wheat. THE KEY NOTE. We do not always agree with ex-Secretary Higgins, called "Bill" by those who are more intimate with him than w are, but we do endorse the straight-foTwardl talk he makes in today's State Jox rnal on Free American Silver. j The most important political question before the people today is the financial one. The remonetization of. silver is most necessary to real prosperity. s Cleveland has committed Democracy to gold. The Populists are for fiat money. Let the Republicans sound the key note of restored silver, and let it be tto clearly sounded that the state of Kansas will ring with it with the true ring of the glorious white metaL lied. Raymond Adam Brown, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank J. Brown, passed quietly away at 8:30 Saturday evening, from cerebro spinal meningitis. The funeral services took place at 2:30 thia afternoon at the residence, 829 Huntoon street, conducted by Rev. Dr. S. B. Al- derson. Silver Commission Decided Xothing;. Berlin. June. 4.

TYNAN'S BOOK. 1 terioua Chances Against Parnell and tb. IrUb rarlUmantsrr Leader. New Yokk, Juno 4. Advance proof re made public of the book upon (rish affairs written by P. J. Tynan, the "Irish invincible," known as Number 1." It is entitled "The Irish National Invincibles and Their rimes." Its apparent purpose is to establish the connection of the "In vincibles" with the Irish parliamen tary party. The book, according to rumor, was to contain proof that the Irish parliamentary party directed the series of dynamite outrages in England wme years ago, and was responsible for the murders in Phcenix park, Dublin, on May 5, 1832, of Lord Fred erick Cavendish, chief secretary for Ireland, and Thomas Henry Burke, permanent under secretary. The Irish parliamentary party publicly denounced the authors of the Phoenix park crimes, and in so doing, it is claimed by Tynan, they were "sail ing under false colors to destroy the trusting Irish." "For this," it says, "and for the purpose of exposing their hypocrisy, this book was under taken. In assailing the policy and action of the invincibles, these falsa parliamentarians were heaping moun tains of infamy on their own mem ories." It is claimed that the book proves that the assertions of the London Times that the parliamentary party were implicated in the Pnoenix park murders were absolutely true. These assertions resulted in the trial and vindication of Charles Stewart Parnell. Parnell is denounced by the writer as a traitor to the cause of Ireland and by inference Tynan suggests that the only reason the late leader of tho Irish parliamentary party was not re moved was because of his knowledge of the Invincibles and their methods, which enabled him to live in compara tive security. It is asserted by one faction of the Irish partythe Constitutional faction that the book was written in pursu ance of a cabal between Tynan and the Tory party, and that he has em bodied statements in his, narrative, for revenue, which the Tories expect to use in defeating the Liberals at the next election. Tynan is now a resident of this city. themselves as being: desir KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. Great Preparation for Their Itienalal Encampment In Washington. Washington, June 4. The biennial convention of the supreme lodge and the biennial encampment of the Uni form. Rank, Knights of Pythias, will convene here on Monday, August 27. The popular feature of the event will be the sessions of the supreme lodge, the street parade and the review by President Cleveland of the Uniform Rank, the dress parade on the White house lot, a competitive drill between about forty-five infantry and cavalry divisions of the Uniform Kank, and a ball and reception at convention hall. Excursions to various points about, the city have also been organized. Preparations for the event are be ing hurried through by the local com missioner. The executive committee has announced that the encampment fund must be $30,000, and that a large percentage of this sum has been sub scribed. It is estimated that IS. 000 uniformed knights will visit Washing ton, and that the number of other vis itors will be between 150,000 and 200, 000. It is understood the railways will reduce their fare one-half. Commonwealera at Kansas City. Kansas, City, Kan., June 4. The commonweal armies of Generals Ben nett and Artz remained quietly in camp at Kerr's park all day yesterday. The men were tired and kept very close to their quarters, only a few of the leaders coming up to the city. There were plenty of visitors and curiosity-seekers to keep things inter esting, and that Is all the average wealer asks. Fooad Hiuglaf to a Tree. Okean, Ark., June 4. A man was found yesterday- hanging to a limb of a small tree two miles north of here and 100 yards from the Iron Mountain track. Papers on the body bore the name of G. XV. Houston of Liberty, 111. His skull was crushed. He was hanged with his shirt sleeve. There was $30 on his person. It cures blood and skin disorders. It does this quickly and permanently.

Eighteen Hundred Armed Crip ple Creek Miners Will Meet the Deputies and Make a Stand. FIGHT TO THE DEATH. If Hepulsed They Will Retreat to Their Fort. Crippx.1! Creek, CoL, June 4. All day yesterday the striking miners were on the alert, expecting that at any moment some of Sheriff Bowers deputies would put in an appearance in some remote portion of the camp. Not a single miner is working in the camp. One shift was pnt in on the Moose, Elkton, Prince Albert, Gold Dollar, Ingham, Jack G., and a few other properties, but the managers of the several mines were informed that ic would be impossible to run any of the properties. The men are now confident that they will be attacked some time to-day and the hour may be directly after midnight. They are ready and this is so well known by the deputies that the officer commanding is using the utmost caution. All men not necessary to guard ap proaches to Bull hill and forage for supplies have been massed about the fortification, and their number is slightly over 1,800. Yesterday the strikers made their last forage for arms, ammunition and supplies. Fear ing a siege, they have filled hundreds of beer kegs with water and stored them in the fort. Parties have been drafting recruits. Many of these par ties were headed by women who promise to stand till the end comes. The towns of Victor, Anaconda, Mound City and other places are in the possession of squads of armed strikers. Cripple Creek is entirely un molested by strikers. The plan of the strikers is to meet the deputies and make as strong a stand as possible and if necessary re treat to Bull hill, where a desperate stand will be made. The deputies will be commanded in the field by W. J. Palmer, leader of the army that had so many scrimmages during the building of the Denver Eio Grande road. He says that any moia.'nt the deputies may advance to a point beyond Midland, after which a battle will be only a question of hours. The wives of the strikers refuse to leave camp. Some of them have or ganized to care for the wounded and others have procured Winchesters and will enter the fig-ht. WAITE'S POSITION. The Governor Evidently Stands In With the Strikers. Denver, Col., June 4. When Gov ernor Waite made his reply refusing Sheriff Bowers' request for troops at Colorado Springs, all hope of receiv ing aid from the militia was about given up. Yesterday's developments but strengthen the impression that no aid will be received through the gov ernor. Governor Waite, Lorenz, his private secretary, and John Calderwood, pres ident of the miners' union, left Colo rado Springs for this city at 12:30 o'clock yesterday morning and arrived here about an hour later. Governor W'aite and Lorenz immediately went into conference with the governor advisors. Calderwood went where no one but Waite and Lorenz can find him. It is not known who all the govern or's advisors werj. Nothing was de cided upon at the first conference, and another was held at 10 o'clock, with a like result, so far as any one knows. Sheriff Bowers followed Governor Wraita to Denver on the next train. Yesterday he made another appeal to the governor for troops, but so far the demand has proved ineffectual. Sheriff Bowers then started in search of Calderwood to arrest him, but failed to find him. Lorenz refused to say anything about Calderwood's whereabouts until he had had a talk with the governor. The two went to the governor, who not only refused to state Calderwood's whereabouts, but instructed Lorenz to say nothing. General McCook, located at Fort Logan, has prepared himself for a call and is in readiness, though how he can be called upon is a mystery. Strikers Kidnap a Man. Cripple Cbkek, Col., June 4. H. E. Woods, president of the Woods Invest ment company, whose main office is in Denver, but whose local office is at Victoria, six miles from the city, was taken in charge at 9 o'clock, by a large body of miners and carried up to the fort on Bull hill. His wife was present when he was taken and is almost frantic. The men told her that she need not worry, as they would turn Mr. Woods loose in the morning; that all they wanted her husband for was to ex plain certain matters and that it would be impossible for them to do without his presence at their strong hold. At this writing not ten business men here know the news, but they look into each others' faces and see nothing but dread and fear. The cause of the kidnaping of Mr. Woods it is impossible now to give. The Strikers Had Vanished. Washington, Ind., June 4. The state troops marched into Clark's station yesterday morning 500 strong, with Gatling gun, to find that only about fifty miners had stayed to face the music. The thousand miners who were reported en route to Clark's station did not materialize, neither had they collected at any point along the Baltimore Ohio Southwestern. Mr. Bell Resigns. Washjxgtox, June 4. Mr. J. Lowrie Bell, second assistant postmaster eeneral, has resigned to accept the position of general traffic manager of the Central railway of New Jersey at a much higher salary. We put on new neck bauds on shirts. Peerless Steanj Laundry, 112 and 114 West Eighth street. TRAIN STEALERS CAUGHT. Captured by United States Harshal Neely and Returned to Denver, Elus, Kan., June 4. Some more Colorado wealers are about to get Into trouble with the United States government. The army that took possession of a Union Pacific freight train at Watkins, CoL, arrived at this plae Saturday afternoon, where" the train was stopped by order of the railroad company. The commonweal era then boarded another train, which was ready to start eastward, but the trainmen side-tracked the cars occu pied by the invaders and pulled ahead without them. The Union Pacific being in the hands of receivers, appointed by the United States court, the officials of the road complained to United States Judge C. G. Foster of Tope ka, who issued an order enjoining the common wealers from interfering with the movement of the company's trains or otherwise molesting its property. The order was placed in the hands of United States Marshal S. F. Neelv. A train was made up here last even ing and the commonwealers allowed to board it, so as to meet the mar shal's train at a siding six miles east of here. On reaching the Coxey train Marshal Neely took a few men and going to where they were seated on top of the box cars, commanded them to get down. Captain Rolston asked if they were prisoners. Marshal Neely replied that they were United States prisoners, and the men at once complied. They probably expected to be taken East.and were rather pleased at the arrest. Their hopes, however, were not realized. They were ordered to climb into two box cars, the engine started west, and at 8 o'clock they were at the place they had quitted an hour before. Arrived here, the men were put into a baggage car connected with the marshal's train, a body of deputies placed on guard, and they were started for Denver, where they will probably be released. The captain and two lieutenants were not allowed to go West, but were taken to Leavenworth, and will be held for trial. ELECTION IN OREGON. A Full State Ticket Belns; Voted for la the Far Western State. Portland, Ore., June 4. Oregon is to-day voting for a full state ticket, members of congress and legislature to choose a successor to United States Senator Dolph. The Republicans have made a thorough canvass of the state during the past six weeks, both in way of sending out speakers and organizing clubs. The Democrats have never had any chance of winning and have consequently not conducted an aggressive campaign on the state ticket. The Populists have not been idle. Governor Pennoyer who is an avowed candidate for the senate, has traversed the state from one end to the other on behalf of the Populists, making speeches in almost every county seat. It is believed that the three-cornered contest will result favorably to the Re publ icans. The legislature will, in all proba bility be very close. In many coun ties the Democrats and Populists have fused on the legislative ticket and the majority heretofore held by the Republicans may be reduced if not overcome. BIG FIRE IN OTTDMWA.

RIDING IN BOATS. Row Boats Brinar from SI to 5 an Hour. Portland, Ore., June 4. Yesterday was a busy day in Portland. All day long merchants in the flooded dis tricts were at work moving out goods or raising them on platforms above the water. The river continues to ex pand every hour and the situation be comes more perilous. The weather has become cooler here, but no re ports can be had from Eastern Ore gon and Washington, the source of all the flood. Telegraph wires north and east are down, and it is impossible to obtain any news of the situation along the Columbia river. The river here is 31 feet above low water, and every twenty-four hours adds to it from eight to twelve inches. Three-fourths of the wholesale district is under water from two to ten feet, and the water is fast en croaching upon the best part of the retail district. Hundreds of small houses on the flats surrounded by water up to the second story have begun to turn over. A further rise of a foot will take them out. Many merchants are unable to get lumber with which to built platforms to keep their goods above water! Every available boat in the city has been hired, and the boatmen receive from $1 to $5 per hour for services. The Western Union Telegraph company's office is surrounded by six feet of witter. The Union depot is two feet under water, and the Union Pacific car shops in Albina are surrounded by five feet. The Southern Pacific is the only rail road running trains into Portland, and they are compelled to stop at the south end of the city, being unable to reach either depot. The Union Pa cific is hopelessly tied up, both by rail and by boat. The Northern Pacific makes regular trips with the transfer boat Tacoma between this city and Kelso, Wash. It is learned from persons arriving here by boat that the storm last night did much damage along the Northern Pacific between Kalama and Tacoma. Houses and trees were blown down, and at Centralia much damage is said to have been done. In this city a hard rain fell most of the day. The flood will interfere with the election to-day, as many of the polling places are un der water. No estimate of the damage by flood is possible, but it will be something, appalling when results from the upper and lower river are received. The Dalles, a town of 4,000 inhabit ants, cannot be reached by wire, but it is known from the height of the water that nearly all the business portion of the town is under water. THE DELl'GE IX COLORADO. A.11 Danger -Is Now Over and Traffic on Railways Resumed. Denver, CoL, June 4. The Platte river is falling, and all danger from the flood in this city is past. The number of people in and around the city who have been made homeless, and many of whom the county will have to aid. is estimated at 500. The greatest damage is suffered by the railroads, whose tracks along the river bank were washed away. The mountain railroads have re sumed sending out trains, but some of the lines are still impassable. J. E. Murden, contracting freight agent of the Union Pacific, is in the city, having walked all the distance from Central City to Golden. Mr. Murden said: "No one can conceive the destruc tion in that part of the country. Every mine in Central City and vicinity is flooded, and there is not a vestige of placer mine left in Clear creek. Between Central City and Forks creek there are twenty-eight washouts, averaging from ten to fifty feet. Be tween Idaho Springs and Golden there are thirty-six wash-outs. The mining men estimate the loss to the country at $500,000." UNION DEPOT BURNED. One at Hiawatha Completely Destroyed, With Its Contents Lots 820,000. Hiawatha, Kan., June 4. The ex plosion of a lamp in the Union depot here about 5:30 yesterday afternoon started a fire which totally destroyed the building. The loss on building and contents is estimated at $20,000. Honors to Meal Dow. New York, June 4. The Inter national Temperance congress con vened to-day at 10 a. m., in the big tabernacle in Prohibition park, Staten Island. At the principal meeting held yesterday. General Neal Dow of Maine was the most conspicuous figure. Especial honor was paid General Dow because the gathering delegates were celebrating- the forty third anniversary of the sVg-ning of the first prohibitory law in Maine. Shot Dead at Parts, Mo. Paris, Mo., June 4. A diffiulty oc curred here last night between Charles A. Burnett and John Kirsch, in which Burnett shot Kirsch, the lat ter dying in a few moments. Burnett claims the shootings was deme in self defence, as Kirsch struck him twice before he shot. Burnett is in jail. Fireman Scalded to Death. Denison, Texas, June 4. Passenger train No. 2 of the Houston and Texas Central was wrecked at Howe, Texas, a small station south of here, yester day, by a misplace? switch. The engine and mail car were wrecked, and Fireman G. .Hart was scalded to death. High grade imported and domestic cigars at Stansfield's Drug Store, SWOOPED DOWN UPON.

Tha Cherokees have received the first in stallment of one-sixth of their money and the big payment of more than 59,500,000 will begin to-day at Tahl quah. More than 24,000 Cherokees will draw 8267 in cold cash each. Great crowds of traders, fakirs and sharks are flocking- to Tahlequah in the hope of getting some of the money. It is estimated that the merchants have traded more than SI, 000,000 on Strip claims, and it is now a question how closely they will collect. There waa a chute built from the exit door of the capital to the col lectors' quarters bo that all parties would have to pass out through the chute and run the gauntlet of the collectors, but such complaint waa made by the people that the chute has been torn away. It is said that in some communities the people are holding secret meetings and deter ing to pay only about fifty per cent on their indebtedness to the re tailers. CONDENSED TELF&1KAHS.

The LeavenworthOperators and Miners Settle Differences. Wichita, Juno 4. In an interview in regard to his wife running for congress, Sir. Lease said he would not go to Wash ington even should she be elected. He said he would only be in the way and he thinks he can be better employed in tak ing care of the house and the children in Wichita. lie is just now more watchful than ever, as several letters, written by cranks, have recently come to the house. The letters threaten the lives of Mrs. Lease and the children, and for that reason Mr. Lease remains at home all of the time. Here is one of the letters which was mailed on a train which differs from all the other letters received from the crank signing himself Facile Princeps, in the respect that it is signed by the man's name: Kansas, May 12, 1894. Mrs. Iase: I have been to Wichita and there learned of a few things detrimental to you. Your life is in danger; also your children's. Your home will be tired, not by your own hands this time, like it was before. I saw one of the victims of your Belfishness, an old man what you turned out last winter. He is broken in health and living on charity. Next I saw Mrs. Brady, and so many other things that time is too short to mention. The man with a mission will learn all these things before he kills you. A curse has been following you for six months, and it is time you are wiped cut of existence be fore you do any more wrong. Make your peace with God and enemies and reparation where you can. 1. D. Hudspeth. Mr. Lease says he does not know whether these cranks really intend to follow out their crazy threats, but he thinks it is the safest plan to always be on the lookout for them, so he never leaves the children alone.

"We are going to have the list published in a nice shape convenient for carrying in the pocket; and two will be sent to every subscriber with the request that each one of them secure another signer. I shall be very much surprised if we do not have 1.0(0 signatures of voters on our list by the election. 'I would not like to give the list of names now for the reason that some of these names were secured early in the spring and we want .o first verify the list. If 1 were to give the list now and some man's name were found that had since died or moved to Oklahoma that would tend to discredit the whole list.

Apian for ad justing labor differences through a na tional board of arbitration has been for mulated by Representative Kiefer of Minnesota. The bill provides for the ap pointment by the president of three com missioners of arbitration. The commis sioner of labor is made ex-ollicio a mem ber of the arbitration board. The gover nor of a state in which a labor contro versy occurs is also a member. The board of arbitration thus consists of five members. The board assembles in the state capi tol, hearing evidence and arbitrates the difference in the usual manner. Its de cisions are made as binding as those of a federal court of law. Provision is also made for enforcing the decision of arbi tration. Pending the hearings of the board the governor is clothed with pow ers to preserve the peace and suppress a strike. MUST HATE PROHIBITION. The Ministerial Union Says the Plank Must He In the Platform. At the meeting of the Ministerial Union this morning the following resolution was adopted: "The moral and civil welfare of the people is the aim of all worthy government; drunkenness is the peril of civilization, the bane of the individual. and the curse of the nation. The saloon promotes drunk enness. Under its shelter everything vile aud diabolical flourishes. Therefore, be it resolved and adver tised as the sense of this union that no political organization ambitious to control and administer govern ent, should hesitate to affirm its loyalty to prohibition of. the saloon, and its anxiety and readiness to present for office men of private integrity as well as public worth." A committee was then appoint ed to go before the state conven tions of both the Republican and Populist parties and present these resolutions. This committee consists of Messrs. A. S. Embree, S. B. Alder son, M. F. McKirahan, B. L. Smith, C. M. Sheldon, J. C. Owen, P. Price, D. Oberg, F. M. Porch, J. R. Dill and C. F. Coblentz. 'lhe union then adjourned until the first Monday in September, when new officers will be elected. Pound Xotiee. Taken op and impounded in the City of Potwin Place, on the 28th day of May, A.

THE TURNERS. About a Thousand Take Part la the Parade this Afternoon. The Turners are here in numbers. If there are any people on the face of the earth who can thoroughly enjoy them selves all the time, it is the Turners. They talk, and "turn" and dance in an enthusiastic,way that is peculiar to the energetic active German race. The first meeting of the Kansas Turn Bezirk began yesterday morning, but on Saturday evening a reception was given to the visiting Turners. Marshall's band furnished music, and a large crowd of Turners and their friends spent the evening very enjoyably. Not only are the Turners an athletic people, but they pay special attention to literary matters. Yesterday morning was devoted to prize turning. The different societies contested in wand exercises, running, jumping, and other gymnastics. Wat son's orchestra of nine pieces, made tilings lively for the Turners. Beside the long counter in the west room of the hall over which the best Anheuser-Busch bever age is dispensed, there are two stands in the garden with four attendants supplying the beverage that the Turners and other people love to drink. To procure this it is necessary to go into the hall to a cashier's desk on which is a sign reading, "Contribution stand." By contributing twenty-five cents a person is given a small envelope in which are five pieces of circular tin. The tin pieces can then be exchanged for beer, wine, cigars or soda pop. No one can enter the gardon without an in vitation from a member of the Turner society. The garden presented a gay appear ance yesterday afternoon. Hundreds, almost thousands of people were there. It looked like a miniature World's fair' ground. At the rear of the building the athletes performed. All Turners wore a badge. Those who were admitted on invitation were given a tiny red ribbon to tie in the but ton hole. So that one could easily dis tinguish between the Turners and the guests. Among the visitors and fraternizing with the Germans were Supt. II. N. Gaines, Police Commissioner L. T. Yount, R. B. Keplev, T. J. Kellam, W. B. Jansen, W. A. L. Thompson, Frank Willard, Ed ward Henderson, Judge Henry Keeler, J. D. Small, Geo. W. Clark, Dr. G. P. Asiiton and many others. The exercises were exceedingly inter esting. In addition to the prize turning there was a May-pole dance and a drill by about 5200 boys and giris. "la the evening the musical exercises took place. It was a concert with a num ber of delightful selections. A large crowd gathered in the garden early in the evening. The rain interfered but little with the festivities. There were not as many Turners in the Turner garden this morning as there were yesterday, but every one had just as good a time. Marshall's Military band was there and played a fine programme of classi cal and popular music. The Marysville chorus sang several selections. It is composed of some very tine singers and they sing together very well. There was some fine turning and a fencing match. This evening is the last meeting of the Fest and the preparations are very complete. Marshall's band will play an over ture and then the prizes will be given. After this a grand ball will be given. The Parade. It was two o'clock when the Turners started from the garden. They were headed by a platoon of police. Next came the Turner marshals on horseback, then the officers of the Kansas Turner Bezirk. Ttien the only Marshall's band, followed by the young Topeka Turners. Following these were the visiting ath letes. Then came the older Turners. As they passed the state house, they gave three cheers. After these, were the ladies in hacks and carriages. One of the Turners when passing the Santa Fe offices, looked up aad said: "We all have to work for you fellows." The other Turners thought this was a good joke of Fritz's and laughed loudly. There were nearly 1.000 persons in the parade, and nearly all the hacks in the city were engaged to carry the ladies. STILL HOPEFUL. Susan If. Anthony Hopes to Carry Her Point in the Convention. Susan B. Anthony arrived at noon to day. She is here to use her influence for the adoption of a woman suffrage plank by the Republican state conven tion. She had an interview with Major E. N. Morrill this afternoon. She said afterward, in reply to a question as to her success: "I can't tell whether we shall succeed or not. The leaders are so weak. They say they are in favor of the movement, but are afraid if they put it in the platform, it will lose them votes. This is the way Major Mor rill feels. I am hopeful of the result however, and intend to do all I can until the fight is over. HIS EAR TO THE GROUND. Still Another Democratic Congressman vr no v on c jtvun Again. Chicago, June 4.

Political Prospects of Different Members of Congress. Washington, June 4. Special. "We are all delighted with the success ol Governor McCreary," said a Kentucky member in a general talk on prospects in his state. "All the delegates from ail his counties have been instructed for him by unanimous vote, and this is the fifth time he has received that honor, which is almost as much of an honor to his constituents as to him, for it shows that they know when they have a good man. All over the state the local workers are active, and most ol the present members are doing well, while in Tennessee my guess is that all tho pres ent Democrats will come back unless they succeed in euchring Pattersonoutof.it,' which just now seems possible." To this member's testimony it should be added that the friends of Colonel Breckinridge, who were quite cast down two weeks ago, are now more confident than ever. Colonel Phil Thompson smiles and rubs his hands with great satisfaction over the progress his famous client is making and says that the only way possible for Breckinridge to be beaten is for either Owens or Settle to get out of the race at onco and thus give time for the eppbsition to consolidate. Of course he thinks this will not be done. Judge Culberson continues to bet on the success of Breckinridge with the same sub lime confidence he has shown through all the ups and downs of the preliminary cam paign. Democratic Prospects. The Democratic members from Tennes see are pretty confident of return. Messrs. McMillin, Washington and Richardson have no opposition in the party, and their districts' are overwhelmingly Democratic. It is also understood that if Speaker Crisp succeeds in seouring the Georgia senator ship Mr. Richardson is to be the candidate of what may be called the central south for speaker in tho Fifty-fourth congTess that is, if that side gets tho cpeakership, which just now is not half so probable as some of them would like. Mr. Snodrass of the Third district has been so outspoken in his antiadministration views that it was thought to have weakened him, and his plurality was only 949, so the Republicans are pretty confident that H. Clay Evans can beat him this year, but the Democrats say that the. 2,000 Populists of 1892 will support Mr. Snodgrass as a silver man. Mr. Enloe of the Eighth had a narrow escape from the combined Republicans and Populists in 1892, and the experts say 'that his ease is the most doubtful of any. Mr. Patterson has declined all requests to go home and niako a preliminary cam paign, declaring that he can do his people a great deal more good by staying here, and that if they prefer some other candi date tUtxt is jtheir own affair. The other fellows have taken him at his word, and every county has a candidate, and some of them two, the most conspicuous aspir ants for the nomination being ex-Congressman Casey Young and ex-Sccretary f State Charles A. Miller. Mr. Patterson Is one" of the very few advanced goldbugs of the south and is also denounced as a 'cuckoo," meaning that ho is an uncom promising supporter of the president. Of course ho Is only n goldbug in the same sense that Mr. McCreary of Kentucky and a few other southern members are that la, he maintains that the shortest and best way to bimetallism is to stick to our pres ent policy, and thus compel Europe to unite with us in an international system. The silver men of his district have already opened a hot fire of pamphlets and leaflets, and the struggle for the nomination bids fair to be Intense, as the Democratic ma joirty In the district is about three to one. Political Xxsses and Gains. None of the Tennessee members knows anything about Mr. Anderson, who is nominated to succeed Air. Alf Taylor in the First district, but of course we shall see him here in 1895, as the district was made for Republicans. It is the same with the. Second district, where there are two Republican candidates, and they can both beat the Democrat and have 3,000 votes tW'spai-e. The Democrats, however, 6ay that they will probably not nominate, and in that case Mr. Houk will win, for he is popular with the opposition and will get almost its entire vote. Their judg ment also Is that Senator Harris will have the unanimous support of his party for re election. The Georgians also claim thatr their delegation will be but little changed In the Fifty-fourth congress, although Messrs. Law son and Cabaniss will have to hustle pretty lively for their nominations, and Mr. Moses has several active competi tors. Of course Messrs. Crisp and Turner can come back as often as they like, but both are candidates for the senatorship. What is said of these three states applies as u general average to the whole south that is, according to the general opinion, at least five-sixths of the present members will return, the losses on renomination be ing very small and the losses by defeat much smaller still. The whole number of representatives from the 16 states called the south is 127, and this congress opened with seven of them Republicans. At Dem ocratic congressional headquarters they figure that the greatest possible loss this year will result in the return of but 13 Re publicans and Populists, leaving 115 Dem ocrats from the south. The quorum being 179, they must therefore get 64 Democrats from the north to have a "lead pipe cinch." Of course they feel sure of seven each from Indiana and Illinois and 14 or more from New York, and now the ques tion is, Where arc the other 36 to come from? Echo answers. Where? And just at present it really seems as if echo is the only individual who does answer. Trouble on Both Sides. The greatest surprise in the whole busi ness was the defeat for renomination of Cliff Breckinridge, which seems to be final. The cause was his support of the act to repeal the Sherman silver bill. The Re publicans of the south also have their little troubles. In the famous black district of South Carolina, represented by George W. Murray, the only colored man in congress, the old ofSoeholdlng element has bolted and nominated the famous Robert Smalls, ex-congressman, but Mr. Murray insists tlutt the nomination la rightfully his, ma a Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report. ES011JfEClf PURE large majority of the regular delegates joined in nominating him. In the Fifth Maryland district, left vacant by the re tirement of Mr. Compton, the latest an nouncement at headquarters is that the Democrats will probably nominate ex-Gov ernor Oden Bowie, and the Republicans Air. Thomas B. Bond of Howard county, president of the Maryland Republican as sociation. TODAY'S MARKET REPORT. Furnished by W.

Qukem Victoria, it Is said, will confer the Order of the Bath upon Captain Ma ban of the Chicago. Was be so bad aa that? Democrats it is said pooh-poohed Reed's silver scheme. This is a sure sign they will indorse it in the next con gress. The Oklahoma man who imagines that he is an angel should be warned against infringing on the rights of Col. Breckinridge. If there is sawdust in Mr. Reed's tights, as M r. Bland says, it is no doubt from his own woodpile, even if be hasn't been saying nothing. Breckinridge says he has a con science void of offense before God and man. lie should remember that it isn't the men who are complaining. The sugar investigation makes it evi dent that the United States senate needs to copy the English government and es tablish the otEce called the Groom of the Stole. Mr. Bland facetiously remarks that there is saw-dust iu Mr. Reed's tights. Perhaps this explains why the Maine men are so anxious to protect the lum ber industry. On account of smallpox the Atchison board of health has cautioned everyone against kissing, and there axe lots more girls going visiting than ever before in the history of the town. Helen M.

ABOUT rJEALIKG" 2TEWS. The Wellington Mail is foolish and unreasonable on the subject of what it called stealing news. The Mail pub lished, a few days ago, a copy of the se cret circular issued by Noah Allen and W. F. Rightmire to the Citizens' Indus trial Alliance. A copy of the same cir cular subsequently appeared in the Stats Journal. Now the Mail accuses the Journal of stealing its "scoop." As the Mail published the article forty-eight hours before the Jocrnal did, we fail to e where the injury comes in. Besides, there were several hundreds of the cir culars sent out. The Mail didn't have a monopoly of it. The copy seen by the Btatb Journal was in the possession of W. J. Cos tig an, editor of Ed Snow's Ot tawa Journal. As it corresponded with the Mail's copy, the circular was copied from that paper. The next morning the Capital clipped the article from the Journal; we didn't feel hurt by this ac tion on the part of the Capital. It was perfectly legitimate. After a piece of news is published it belongs to the world; no newspaper has any lien on it. Two 6t three columns of news Is "stolen" from the State Journal every day. The Wichita, Atchison and Leav worth papers "cut out bodily" our. news items, put a Topeka date on them and run them as telegrams. We don't care. The Journal is satisfied with publishing them first. The Topeka correspondents of Kansas City, St Louis and Chicago papers cut out our local news matter and send it east without giving us credit. We mak6 no objection. Such things are the custom in the newspaper business. Thja isn't stealing any more than the entire telegraph page of the Mail shipped to it in plates from Kan sas City is "stolen" from the Associated Press report of the Kansas City morning papers. There is no copyright on the Asso ciated Press news. Anybody and any newspaper can "steal" it five minutes after it is printed; and fully a score of Kansas daily papers in the smaller towns are thus supplied with all the telegraph news they publish. The Mail is too ten der skinned. THE SCOTCH-IRISH SOCIETY. It Was Founded Five Tears Ago by Colonel Tliomas T. Wright. The approaching meeting of the con fess of the Scotch-Irish Society of America, at Des Moines, is likely to surpass in interest and importance any "of the five annual meetings of the eoci THOMAS T. WRIGHT. i ty that have preceded 'it. Des Moines is the center of a large Scotch-Irish pop ulation, which may be relied on to sup plement tho enthusiasm aroused by an increased attendance of notable men from other sections of the country, and tho local representatives have made ar rangements that are sure to add an ap preciable impetus to tho fast spreading influence of the society. The objects of the Scotch-Irish society are purely fraternal and historical. It is entirely nonsectarian and ronpolitical and includes in ita membership men of all shades of religious belief and politi cal opinion from every state in the Un ion, many of them eminent in politics, business and the various professions. Vice President Stevenson and Governors McKinley of Ohio, Knott of Kentucky, Jackson of Iowa, Northen of Georgia and Hogg of Texas are all members, and ex-governors, senators, representa tives and lesser political lights too nu merous to specify. The society was oragnized at Colum bia, Tenn., in 1889, by a convention called by Colonel T. T. Wright of Nash ville, who thought the time was ripe for the formation of a society similar to the Dutch and Puritan historical associ ations, which should record and make history of the achievements of the Scotch-IriBh race in America. In the foundation and upbuilding of the republic this race was probably the most active of alL Jefferson, Hamilton, Madison, Patrick Henry, Andrew Jack son, Lincoln, Grant, Morse, Fulton, Greeley, Blaine and many other men noted in American history came of this 6tock, yet until the formation of this society the race was without a written history. Since then five volumes of the proceedings of its annual meetings have been published, and they make mighty interesting reading. The debt of the race to the founder of this society is not easy to measure, and it is best appreciat ed by the most eminent representatives of the 'blood.

A MEW PAIR OF EARS. ficmsrksbla Feat in Surgery Performed by a French Physician. At the Bicetre hospital, in Paris, the well known surgeon, M. Landry, has performed a curious operation on a workman of Belgium nationality. The Belgian, it appears, got drunk a ahort time ago, and was taken to the police station at Gentilly when in a state of utter helplessness. While he was in the cells another drunkard, a mechanical engineer named Machant, was brought in in a state bordering on delirium tremens. Machant was in a terribly excited .state, and he attack ed his f eUow prisoner with extraordin ary ferocity, striking him and, hor rible to relate, biting off both liis ears. When he came to himself Machant became very penitent, and asked to be taken to the "bedside of his victim, who was now in the Bicetre hospital, in order to ask his forgiveness. Dr. Landry, who was there, said: "Should you like to give him back his ears?" "Certainly," said the man. "Then," said the doctor, "let me cut a couple of small slips of flesh from you, arm, and it can be done." The man con sented and the doctor did as he had suggested. The pieces of flesh he shaped as well as he eould to the like ness of a pair of ears, and joined them to the wounded places. According to the latest accounts the operation has been a complete success. Stop in this evening and take a glass of ice cream soda at Stansfieid's Drug Store 632 Kas., ave.

A res olution providing for the payment of the expenses of the bribery and other inves tigating committees out of the contin gent fund, was adopted.

Senators Aldrich and Sherman had contended that, the present trust waa not in existence and that its stock was not listed on the New York stock board, but Senator Vest produced some authorities to show that 8,926.000 shares of tbe stock Is as pleasant aa one's feelings after dinner.

Ant i-Le welling Populists Will Not Be Pacified. A STATE MASS MEETI5G CALLED To Assemble at Tope fa. a en. Jane 11 to Protest Afalaat lewellia-s Keaoa laation How tk JtMhine Grosid Oat Opposition at the 8kwi( Coanty Co a vent ion. Although the Populist county conven tion was controlled by the Lewelling strikers, it did not voice the sentiment of a large section of the Populists of To peka and Shawnee county, and there is no longer any doubt that the renomina tion of Lewelling will cause a bolt in the party. Noah Allen plainly says he will not vote for Lewelling, and although Allen is supposed by some politicians not to have much influence, it is a fact never theless that he voices the sentiment of a very large number of Populists who are dissatisfied with the present state gov ernment, but who do not take part in the party. The silent Populist vote is strongly opposed to Le welling John G. Otis is a representative of this class of voters, and although an effort was made to pacify him by putting him on the tail end of the delegation to the state convention it is known that he won't be "quieted." Otis will be on the floor of the state convention and will make a fight there against machine poli tics. He does not say he will bolt Lew elling's nomination, he is too shrewd to say that before Lewelling is nominated, but it is known that he will either vote against Lewelling or will stay away from the polls should the present administra tion win in the state convention. Mr. Otis represents the old fashioned "reformers" of Kansas who are never tightly bound by party lines, and no party can retain them that does not come up to their standard of right. They num ber thousands of voters in Kansas. The Populist county convention ended in general unpleasantness Saturday night, but with the administration well seated in the saddle and ex-Congressman John G. Otis, Noah Allen and W. IL Bennington completely routed. There was a good sprinkling of anti administration men in the convention, but they could not stand up against the ma chine. When C J. Stanley, an anti-Lewelling man, was appointed chairman of the committee on resolutions the anti-fusion Populists thought they would have a chance to get even, but their prospects were spoiled by the appointment of G. C. Clemens as a member of the commit tee. The committee had a long fight, but Clemens won by a compromise, by which the administration was to be neither commended nor condemned, and the re port of the committee as presented was adopted. The resolution was as follows: "We, your committee on resolutions submit the following report: That while re-affirming the Omaha platform and the doctrine of equal rights for all, spe cial privileges to none, we are of the opinion that this convention was called for the sole purpose of electing honest men as delegates to our state and con gressional conventions and therefore ask to be discharged from the further con sideration of resolutions. C. J. Stanley, chairman." While the convention was waiting for the committee to select delegates to re port, Noah Allen and W. H. Bennington were called for and made speeches, both bitterly denouncing the administration. Bennington referred to the violation of the prohibitory law and the running of gambling dens and policy shops in Kan sas City, Kansas, and accusing the ad ministration of profiting from those "dens of iniquity." He said, "I don't charge that Governor Lewelling ever re ceived a dishonest dollar. Not a dis honest dollar. He is simply a fool for lack of sense." The crowd was with the governor and there were loud cries of "It's a lie," "It's a lie," "Bit down," "Sit down." These cries were kept up so long and loud that Bennington could not be heard for sev eral minutes when G. C. Clemens trembling with excitement arose to his full height and held out his arm toward the audience and the noise ceased. Clemens said: "let him finish and then I will settle him." Clemens kept his word and he scored first Bennington and then Allen. The crowd yelled "Hit 'em again," "Sick 'em," "Once more," "Shoot it at Allen." Clemens said he had been in favor of one term nominations, but the kind of talk he had heard in this convention had made him change his mind. He said he expected to be a delegate to the state convention and would consider it his duty to work for the renomination and vindi cation of Governor Lewelling. When the committee announced the list of delegates to the state and con gressional conventions, Mr. Clemens looked wild. Hi3 name was not among those sent to the state convention, al though he was reported as a delegate to Emporia. When the secretary had finished read ing the list of delegates, Clemens arose and in a voice which trembled he said: "To save further trouble I want to say right here I won't be a delegate to the congressional convention. If I haven't done enough for the party and the peo ple's cause to entitle me to a seat In the state convention, then I want to quit." George "Wagner, of the Advocate, who had been reported as chairman of the delegation to the state convention, in order to avoid further trouble, asked to have Clemens given his place, and it was finally arranged that Clemens should go to th.e state convention, and Wagner to the congressional convention. The committee reporting the list of delegates to the two conventions, report ed a supplementary resolution instruct ing the delegates to Emporia to support John G. Otis for the nomination for con-' gress. Under the rules this resolution was re ferred to the committee on resolutions, and that committee killed it. Mr. Otis denounced the administration and Lewelling in particular, but the convention would not call up the resolu tions. The convention was ready to adjourn when Mr. Otis arose and read a suffrage resolution signed by Mrs. Bina A. Otis, Mrs. Lydia M. Furbeckand Mrs. Eliza beth M. WardelL. The resolution read as follows: "We, the undersigned women, repre sentatives from the Topeka Equal. Suf frage association and the Woman's Pro gressive Political league, do earnestly protest against the women of our county influencing voters or providing dinners at the political rallies or working in any manner for a political party that claims to .be a reform party and advocates 'equal rights for all and special privileges for none' and still refuses to recognize in its platform utterances of one-half of our population when the suffrage amend ment is pending." tome one moved to adjourn, but the women who were present refused to be shut oat and Mrs. Otis and Mrs. Furbeck both made speeches before a vote was taken on the resolution which was de feated on a vote of 19 to 2a The delegates elected to the two con ventions are as follows: To the state convention G. C Clemens, James Mitchell, W. C Webb, F. S. Stevens, John A. Campbell, Hugh Law ler, a Kosier, J. T. Hopkins, J. W. Stew ard, J. G. Otis. To the congressional convention C. H. Kutz, M. B. Wallace, E.

Rightmire, Noah Allen and others, have rented the two wings of Trades Assembly hall for cancussing purpose? during the time the Populist state con vention will be in session in Topeka. They now propose to avoid the neces sity of calling another state convention by calling to Topeka enough middle of the road, anti-administration Populist during the time the state convention is in session to compel by the power of Popuiist public opinion the convention to nominate a new ticket. W. F. Rightmire has issued aTn appeal to anti-fusion, anti-administration, anti machine Populists, in which he says: "The manner in which the county con vention of Shawnee county was con ducted on Saturday destroys all my hopes of any relief coming to the oppressed toilers of this state from the present all powerful machine entrenched in the state offices and the state central committee of the Kansas People's party organization, and forces the above ques tion upon me, and I therefore ask per mission of you to give a short history of the rise of our party, and the present condition of the same, at the present time, in the embrace of the insatiable devil-fish of a machine ring knowing no principle, or guiding-force beyond the lust for office, and the spoils that official corruption can procure. "The success of the Democracy in al lying itself with the Populists at the Wichita convention of lb92, has been demonstrated by the election of a Demo cratic United States senator, the placing of the control of the metropolitan police of cities of the first-class, in the power of the Democratic party under the con trol of Democratic or Demo-Pop police commissioners, the non-enforcement of the prohibitory laws of the state and the monthly receipt as a campaign and cor ruption fund of $1,500 each month from the Brewer's association, and 'the same monthly revenue from the Distillers as sociation, commonly known as the "whisky trust," in addition to the im mense sums collected by the agent3 of the state administration, in the shape of monthly fines from the gambling houses, joints, policy-shops, fake-lotteries, and disorderly houses that are allowed to run unmolested, in the metropolitan cities as long as they pay the monthly fines col lected by the appointees of the governor incontrol of the cities. "From our proud and impregna ble position of 1890, with our rule of the office seeking the men to be nominated, we have de scended to the depths of degradation, where the entire power of a state admin istration has been exerted for two years to kill off all opposition, and secure re nomination for the present incumbents of the state offices, and from a party of reformers banded together for the success of principles, our People's party of Kan sas has become a refuge for the office seekers of both old parties; its reform Press association, a servile tool to hide official misrule and to assassinate every member of the party that does not bow a servile knee that thrifwnay follow fawn ing.' The principles of the Omaha platform have been abandoned in the hunt for office, and the People's party of Kansas has today become a moral cow ard, like a dastard hound cringing at the knee of its master, the Democratic wing, its fusion partner, refusing to stand for justice and equity by championing the cause of equal suffrage. "For the prevention of the abandon ment of the principles we have been ad vocating for so many years, every old Vidette,Anti-monopolist,knight of Labor, and member of the Citizen's National In dustrial Alliance, and Farmer's Alliance, who can possibly attend, should attend the coming state convention at Topeka, and should reach that city on Monday, June 11th, and assist in effecting an organi zation, to oppose the ring of office hold ers, and if their renomination cannot be prevented in the convention, then to call another state convention, under the law of the Omaha platform, and hold its primaries and conventions free from the 'dictation of office holders, and put in nomination a straightout, middle of the road Populist state ticket whose every nominee shall stand un equivocally "pledged to the unqualified support of the Omaha platform in all its details, and the cause of equal suffrage. But says the weak kneed brother, 'If you do this you will surely elect the Re publican state ticket and give them the control of the state again.' Well my dear brother, can you in your reasoning find any cause to prefer the ring rule of Demo-Pop-fusion railroad tools, to that of Republican railroad rule? "Even if the Republicans should elect their state ticket, we have control of the state senate and can prevent any inju rious legislation, and how much wocse would the re-election of W. A. Johnston as associate justice of the supreme court be than the election of W. C WTebb, whose only reason for being in our party is that he wants to be elected to a judge ship where he can draw a salary. "The gain we shall make by this course is that Kansas Populism shall no longer be a stench in the nostrils of our brothers in the other northern states, or a club used to present the growth of our party and the success of our principles in the southern states, where the fusion of Kansas Populists with Democrats is the only hope left for Democratic aac-ces."

It was the curly haired son of Station Agent Trapp of Waka rusa, two and a half years of age, still in a dress and little bonnet, and too young to talk. While the engine was taking water at Wakarusa, the baby had crawled from the platform to the car steps unobserved, and when discovered twenty minutes later, was hanging bravely on the rear platform chain, but crying piteously, as the lurching of the car pitched it from one side to the other. How it hung on through a ten-mile run around the sharp curves of the track is a mystery. It was left in charge of the station agent at Carbondale and returned to its parents yesterday afternoon.

OLIVE HAKPEIt'S IDEA 8HE AGREES WITH THE SCRIPTURES ABOUT HAIR. Bat It Must Be Well Kept Frizzes, Bancs, Front Fieeea, Switches and Wig; Am Not Glorious Latett Styles of Coiffures An Elegant Walking Dress. Special Correspondence.! New Yokk, Slay 31. The glory of a woman is her hair,' the Bible tells us, and it ia certainly true. From the time the first soft rings begin to curl up in the back of a baby girl's neck until the woman's head is covered -with -silvered curls- the hair is the chief beauty of woman. But it must be her own hair and neither frizzes, bangs, front pieces, switches nor wigs. It must be well kept, NEW STYLES IN HAIRDRESSIN'O. well brushed and glossy with its own natural silkiness. If it is not carefully brushed every night and morning, it Boon shows the lack of care and looks dry and rusty. It is not a glory then, but a disgrace. Not all women have thick or long hair, but every woman can have soft and silky hair, and given that there is but one thing to do, and that ia to study its possibilities. The women who do not crimp or curl their hair are comparatively few. If the hair looks best smooth, wear it bo, but if the face needs the softening influenco of graceful curls, puffs or waves, why, let the woman have them. It is almost a sin not to make the very best of the gifts we have. Each season sees new styles in dress ing the hai? that are, after all, but old ones revived, but it Would be difficult to hit upon a period when every woman could cater to her own personal require ments in that respect, and yet be in fash ion, as she can now. There are two salient styles on which many changes can be based. One is to have the hair parted in the center or to one side or the other, the whole waved and carried back to a loose or tight knot at the back, which may be high or low, as it looks best. There may be a fringe of loose tendrils or a mass of thick curls. This is a style well adapted to the young. The Spanish stylo is finding high favor this month, but it requires a mass of hair such as few women can boast It is dressed with a full Langtry bang on the brow and brought forward and down, almost covering the ear, and it is permitted to sag in the nape of the neck, where it ends in a few short but heavy curls. From there it is brought up again and twisted into thick loops, which are held with jeweled pins. For evening this is a very effective style. The hair is brought closer to the head over the ears than in the spring. Some young la dies, having plenty of straight hair, rather affect the German fancy braids, bringing them up like coronets and not allowing a thread of loose hair or a curl to 6how. The success of this mode is in its 6evere plainness, and few could bear it. As I said before, almost every lady can create her own stylo of coiffure. But crimps and curls will not "stay in" when the weather is hot. Today I found a walking dress that was one of the most elegant and grace- j ful I ever saw. It was made of blue and green fil-a-fil, which means hairline really, as the colors were wrought by alternate threads. The front was prin- ELEGANT PRINCESS DRESS. cess shape, buttoning closely all the way down with small round iridescent steel buttons. There was an underskirt. The back was made seamless"! n the waist, but the two sides pieces were folded over to a point in the center, where it was caught up in superb plaits, held by a steel buckle, which showed iridescent colors. The sleeves were double puffs, with forearm pieces of the same. There was a collarette of blue and green silk passementerie set with steel beads, Bhowing the same colors as-the buckle. This fil-a-fil is one of the newest and most popular of the handsome summer wools. There are several shades and colors of it, the most striking being the blue and green. There is another navel ty just out called Russian satin. It is double faced, with one color in woolen satin, weaved on one side and silk satin weaved in, a contrasting shade or color on the other side. It comes in putty color, with pale blue linings, steel gray, with maize, rose or green inside, and, in fact, all the newest colors are repre sented. This material is to be used eo that both colors will show like cascade and jabots, etc It is very pretty for the light guxaiuer capes. Olive Hamper. A WIFE'S THOUGHTFULNESS. Wifk George, my hands are full button Almoit Always. They were bosom friends. They kissed each other every time they met and wore hats just sike. The one in the morning gown glanced at her image in the mirror. "I was told last night, she murmur ed, "that my complexion is generally admired." The one in the street costume smiled radiantly. "Generally, certainly, she exclaimed enthusiastically. "Why not, when you are so careful to get the ingredients just the same every time?" The talk naturally drifted to other topics as the minutes sped away. De troit Tribune. Similar Desires. Mrs. Mulligan I'd rather hev the hull family sick than you! Mr. Mulligan So would I! Hallo. Ha Wanted to Come. A Boston schoolteacher arranged a little maple sugar party f cr a few of her friends last winter, and wishing to dec orate her rooms appropriately asked her boys if they would not bring her some evergreen boughs. This thev did with a good deal of pleasure (the school is in one of the moro rural quarters of the city), and the grateful teacher by way of expressing her gratitude gave her pupils a little description of what she intend ed to do. She had spent some of her vacations in Vermont, and being familiar with the process of sugar making was able to make her story not only instructive, but decidedly interesting. She described tp grove, the tapping of the trees, the running of the sap, the boiling of it, and so on. Then she told what she proposed doing at the party. She was going to boil some sirup and then pour it upon bowls of snow to cool, and so serve it to her guests. The scholars listened with the deepest attention, but the teacher noticed espe cially one little fellow who sat leaning over his desk' with his hand all ready to bo raised, as if he could not wait for her to finish. As she paused, up came the hand. "Well, Peter?" said she, and the little fellow broke out. "How much are the tickets?" he asked. Youth's Companion. Love.

Vacant expression of the eyes and cerebral cavity. Patient speaks in monosyllables and takes an especial interest in the monosyllable "yes." Treatment One doso of the monosyl lable "no" and good nursing, for males. For females a new sealskin sack, diamonds and a trip to Europe are sometimes efficacious. An application of stern parents is sometimes of use, but more often merely excites the malady. Marriage is an absolute specific. But it is so dangerous that it is never used except in extreme cases.

De "Wit Talmage, who is now on his round-the-world journey, has chosen as the subject for to-day: "Martyrs of the Needle" the text being- Matthew xix.. 24, "It is easier for a camel to go throug-h the eye of a needle." 'Whether this eye of the needle" be the small gate at the side of the big gate at the entrance of the wall of the ancient city, as is g-enerally inter preted, or the eye of a needle such as is now handled in sewing a garment, I do not say. In either case it would be a tight thing for a camel to go through the .eye of a needle. But there are whole caravans of fatigues and hardships going through the eye of the sewing, woman's needle. Very long ago the needle was busy. It was considered honorable for women to toil in olden time. Alex ander the Great stood in bis palace showing garments made by his own mother. The finest tapestries at Bayeux were made by the queen of William the Conqueror. Augustus the emperor would not wear any garments except those that were fashioned by some member of his royal family. So let the toiler everywhere be respected! The greatest blessing that could have happened to our first parents was being turned out of Eden after they had done wrong. Adam and Eve, in their perfect state, might have got along without work, or only such slight employment as a perfect garden, with no weeds in it, demanded. But, as soon as they had sinned, the best thing for them was to be turned out where they would have to work. We know what a withering thing it is for a man to have nothing to da Good old Ashbel Green, at four score years, when asked why he kept on working, said, "I do so to keep out of mischief. We see that a man who has a large amount of money to start with has no chance. Of the thousand prosperous and honorable men that you know nine hundred and ninety-nine had to work vigorously at the beginning. But I am now to tell you that in dustry is just as important for a woman's safety and happiness. The most unhappy women in our communi ties to-day are those who have no en gagements to call them up in the morning; who, once having risen and breakfasted, lounge through the dull forenoon in slippers down at the heel and with dishevelled hair, reading the last novel; and who, having dragged through a wretched forenoon and taken their afternoon sleep, and hav ing spent an hour and a half at their toilet, pick up their card-case and go out to make calls; and who pass their evenings waiting for somebody to come in and break up the monotony. Ara bella Stuart never was imprisoned in so dark a dungeon as that Tbere is no happiness in an idle woman. It may be with hand, it may be with brain, it may be with foot; but work she must, or be wretched forever. The little, girls of our fami lies must be started with that idea. The curse of our American society is that our young women are taught that the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, tenth, fiftieth, thousandth thing in jtheir life is to get somebody to take care of them. In stead of that, the first lesson should be, how, under God, they may take care of themselves. The simple fact is that a majority of them do have to take care of themselves, and that, too, after having, through the false notions of their parents, wasted the years in which they ought to have learned how successfully to maintain them selves. We now and here declare th inhumanity, cruelty, and Outrage of that father and mother, who pass their daughters into womanhood, hav ing given them no facility -for earning their livelihood. Madame de Stael said: "It is not these writings that I am proud of, but the fact that I have facility in ten occupations, in any one of which I could make a livelihood." Have you nothing better than money to leave your children? If you have not, but send your daughters into the world with empty brain and unskilled hand, you are guilty of assassination, homicide, regicide, infanticide. There are women toiling in our cities for $3 and 84 per week, who were the daugh ters of merchant princea These suffering ones now would be glad to have the crumbs that once fell from their father's table. That worn-out. broken shoe that she wears is the lineal descendant of the $12 gaiters in which her mother walked and that torn and faded calico had ancestry of mag nificent brocade, that swept Broadway clean without any expense to the street commissioners. Though you live in an elegant residence, and fare sumptu ously every day, let your daughters feel it is a disgrace to them not to know how to work. I denounce the idea, prevalent in society, that though our young women may embroider slip pers, and crochet, and make mats for lamps to stand on, without disgrace. the idea of doing anything for a live lihood is dishonorable. It is a shama for a young woman, belonging to a large family, to be inefficient when tha father toils his life away for her support. It is a shame for a daugh ter to be idle while her mother toils at tha wash-tub. It rs as honorable to sweep house, make feeds, or trim hats, aa it is to twist a watch chain. As far as I can understand, the line that l of respectability lies between nil i H i K ncikfnl nnrl li Q f vYiloh im u less. If women do that which ia of no I value, their work is honorable. If they do practical work, it is dishonor- I able. That our young women may escape the censure of doing dishonorable-work, I shall particularize. You may knit a tidy for the back of an arm chair, but by no me'ans make the money wherewith to buy the chair. You may, with delicate brush, beauti fy a mantel ornament, but die rather than earn enough to buy a marblo mantel. You may learn artistic music until you can squall Italian, but never sing "Ortonville" r "Old Hundred." Do nothing practical, if you would,' in the eyes of refined society, preserve your respectability. I scout these finical notions. I tell you no woman, any raor than a man. has a aright to occupy a place in this world unlesa she pays a rent for it If we want a place ia this world we must earn it. The partridge makes its own nest before he occupies it The lark, by its morning song, earns its breakfast before it eats it; the Bible gives an intimation that the first duty of an idler is to starve, when it says if he "will not work, neither. Jhali he eat" Idleness ruins the health; and very soon- Kature says. "This man has refused to pay his rent; out with him!" Society is to be reconstructed on the subject of woman's toiL A vast ma jority of those ;who would have woman industrious shut her up to a few kinds of work.. Mt judgment in this matter is, that a woman has a right to do any thing she can do well. There should be no department of merchandise, mechanism, art or science barred against her. If Miss Hosmer has genius for sculpture, give her a chisel. If Rosa Bonheur has a fondness for de lineating animals, let her make The Horse Fair." If Miss Mitchell will study astronomy, let her mount the starry ladder. If Lydia will be a mer chant, let her sell purple. If Lucretia Mott will preach the gospel, let her thrill with her womanly eloquence the Quaker meeting house. It is said if woman is given snch op portunities she will occupy places that might be taken by me a. I say if she have more skill and adapted ness for any position than a man has let her have it! She has as much right to her bread, to her apparel, and to her home as men have. But it is said that her nature is so delicate that she is unfitted for ex hausting toil. I ask in the name of all past history what toil on earth ia more severe, exhausting and tremen dous than toil of the needle to which for ages she has been subjected? The battering-ram, the sword, the carbine, the battle-axe have made no such havoc as the needle. Z would that these living sepulchres in which women have for ages been buried might be opened, and that some resurrection trumpet might bring up these living corpses to the fresh air and sunlight. I go still further, and say that women should have equal compensa tion with men. By what principle of justice is it that women in many of our cities get only two-thirds as much pay as men. and in many cases only half? Here is a gigantic injustice that for work equally well, if not bet ter done, woman receives far less com pensation than man. Strt with the national government: for a long while women clerks in Washington got $900 for doing that for which men received l, 800. To thousands of young women in our cities to-day there is only this alternative: starvation or dishonor. Many of the largest mercantile estab lishments of our cities are accessory to these abominations; and from their large establishing -rs there are scores of souls being pitched off into death; and their employers know it I Is there a God? Will there be a judgment? I tell yon, if God rises op to redress woman's wrongs, many of I our large establishments will be swal lowed up quicker than a South Ameri I can earthquake ever took down a city. God will catch these oppressors be 1 tween the two mill stones of his wrath, and grind them to powder! I hear from all this land the wail of womanhood. Man has nothing to an 1 swer to that wail but flatteries. He says she is an angel, She is not She knows she is not She is a human be ing, who gets hungry when she has food, and cold when she has no fire. Give her no more flatteries; give her justice! There axe .about 50.0QO sewing girls in New York and Brooklyn. Across the darkness of this night I hear their death groan. It is not such a cry as comes from the who are suddenly hurled out of life, but a, .slow, grind ing, horrible wasting away. Gather them before you and look into their faces, pinched, ghastly and hunger struck! Look at their fingers, needle pricked and blood-tipped! See that premature stoop in the shoulders. Hear that dry, hacking, merciless cough! At a large meeting of these women held in a hall in Philadelphia, grand speeches were delivered, but a needle woman took the stand, threw aside her faded shawl, and with her shriveled arm. hurled a very thunderbolt of eloquence, speaking out the horrors of her own experience. I Stand at the corner of a street in New York in the very early morning, as the women go to their work. Many of them had no breakfast except the crumbs that were left over from the night before, or a crust they chew .on their way through the street Here j they come! Tha working girls of the 1 city! These engaged in bead-work, i these in flower-making, in millinery. enamelling-, cigar-making, book-binding, labelling, feather-picking, print coloring, ptper-box making, but, most overworked of all, and least compen sated, the sewing-women. Why do they not take the city cars -on their way np? They can not afford the five cents! If, concluding to deny herself something else, she gets into the car. 8TTe er seat! You want to see how Liatimer ano ruaiey appeared in tne ure: iool woman ana Denoia a BBOre orhle -martyrdom, a hotter fire a more agnizing deathl One Sabbath night, in the vestibule of my church, after service a woman fell in convulsions. The doctor said she needed medicine not so much as something to eat As she began to re vive, in her delirum, she said, gasp ingly: "Eight cents! Eight cents! Eight cents! I wish I could get it done! I wish I could get some sleep, but I must get it done! Eight cents! Eight cents!" We found afterward that she was making garments at 8 cents apiece, and that -she eould make but three of them in a day. Hear it1. Three times eight are twenty-four! Hear it men and women who have comfortable homes! Soma of the worst villains of tha city are the employers of these women. They beat them down to the last penny, and try to cheat them out of that The woman must deposit a dollsr or two before she gets the gar ments to work on.. When the work is done it is sharply inspected, the most insignificant flaws picked out, and the wages refused, and sometimes the dol lar deposited not given back. The Women's Protective Union reports a case vXv?re one of these poor souls, finding place where she could get more wages, resolved to change employ ers, and went to get her pay for work done. The employer says: "I hear you are going to leave me?" "Yes," she said, "and I have come to get what you owe me. He made no an swer. She said: "Are you not going to pay me?" "Yes." he said. "I will pay you;" and be kicked her down the stairs How are these evils to be eradicated? What have you to answer, you who sell coats, and have shoes made, and contract for the southern and western markets? What help is there, what panacea, what redemption? Soma say: "Give women the ballot" What effect such ballot might have on other questions I lis not here to discuss: but what would be the effect of femal suffrage upon woman's wages? I do not believe that woman will ever get justice by woman's ballot The dying actress whose life had been vicious said: "The scene closea Draw the eurtain." Generally the tragedy comes first and the farce afterward, but in her life it was first the farce of a useless life, and then the tragedy of a wretched eternity. Compare the life and death of such a one with that of some Christian aunt that was once a blessing to your household. I do not know that she was ever offered a hand in marriage She lived single, that untrammelled she might be somebody's blessing. Whenever the sick were to be visited, or the poor to be provided with bread, t she went with a blessing. She could pray, or sing "Rock of Ages." for any sick pauper who asked her. As she got older, there were days when she was a little sharp, but for the most part Auntie was a sunbeam just the one for Christmas eve She knew bet ter than any one else how to fix things. Her every prayer, as God heard it, was full of every body who had trouble. The bright est things in all the house dropped from her fingers. She had peculiar notions, but the grandest notion she ever had was to make you happy. She dressed well Auntie always dressed well; but her highest adornment was that of a meek and qut spirit, which, in the sight of God, is of great price. When she died you all gathered lov ingly about her, and as you carried her out to rest the Sunday school class almost covered the coffin with japoni cas; and the poor people stood at the end of the alley, with their aprons to their eyes, sobbing bitterly; and the man of the world said, with Solomon, "Her price was above rubies;" and Jesus, aa unto the maiden in Judea, com manded: "I say unto thee, arise!"

SECRET OF THE SUCCESS OF THE GREAT POLITICAL ORGANIZATION. Bow It Keeps Its Promises Its Treatment of Bright If onus M en LookiD; After the Material Interests of HembcrtyKeeping Track of Voters. Special Correspondence.! New York, May 31. Tammany is the best known local political orgnization in the world." Leaving aside all consider ations of praise or Vjlame, the basic rea son for this must lie in the fact that it is the most powerful organization of the kind known. The question is often asked, "Whence does Tammany get this power?" and the answer as often re turned is, of conrse, "From its perfect organization. This answer is a good one as far as it goes, bat it is not a defi nite one.. Perhaps if the question is made more definite the answer will be more satisfactory. I put it this way today to a Tammany man: "What is the key to the marvelous organization of Tammany Hall?" Key to Its Strength. His answer was: "Individual enroll ment. Every assembly district in the city of New York has a district leader. Every election district in that assembly TAMMANY HALL. district has a captain. It is the business of the captain to personally know the political affiliations -of every voter in his district. All the regular Tammany voters are enrolled in every district, and some districts captains go bo far as to make careful lists of all the voters and to set opposite their names memoranda which will show the politics of each in dividual voter and his political history. I "Whether the captain does this or not, he 1 must be thoroughly familiar with all the voters in his district, and he is held strictly accountable for the vote on each election day. If at any time there is a marked falling off, he must give some explanation that is perfectly satisfactory. 1 or he is likely to lose his place, and that very quickly. Next to the plan of individual enroll ment, Tammany's strength is most strongly buttressed probably by its adoption of the "spoils" principles. I do not mean to usethis word here in a sense that would be universally consid ered offensive, but it is a fact, which good Tammany men, so far from gain saying, all assert to be true and uphold, that Tammany looks after its own and. does it systematically tbo. If you are a resident of New York and have been sufficiently identified with Tammany to be considered by your district leader a Tammany man, and you get out of work, you v!ll find that Tammany will make every effort to give you city em ployment. It may not be possible, to give you the kind of employment you desire, but upon the presentation of your case to your leader he will make every effort to satisfy you. If possible, he will see that you are provided with a situation for which you are fitted, for Tammany likes to have its servants per- j form their duties well, and it i3 the rule known and admired by the rank and file of Tammany that once a district i leader gives his word as to the obtain- ing of employment the coveted situation is as good as secured. j Those leaders who are most careful in j this regard are always strongest and j most certain of' retaining leadership. There are undoubtedly several district leaders whose deposition would be more than satisfactory to the higher officials of Tammany Hall, but who retain their places because the voters under them say: "If he says he'll doit, he wilL He wolnsJ; make a promise unless he feels cure tbat it 'goes. m I A lenders and Young Men. Contrary- to the general belief, the leaders are virtually appointed by the voters and not by the higher officials. If in the district containing 100 Tammany voters 55 are dissatisfied with the lead er, he must resign, and not all the pow er of Croker or Kelly in his best days of "bosshood" could keep such a leader in place. Still another important source of pow er to Tammany lies in its treatment of newcomers, especially bright young men. If you, being a young man from the interior, come to New York and take up your residence in any quar ter of this city, the captain of your elec tion district will possess himself of your name, a knowledge of your general characteristics and your political ante cedents and affiliations very shortly aft er yon settle in his bailiwick. If, after investigation, it seems -likely that yon would be an acquisition to Tammany, your acquaintance will be made, and after a bit, during which time, without your knowledge, you will be on pro bation, yon will be invited to join the local club. If you take an interest in politics, yon will sooner or later be ask ed to take an active part in a local can vass. If your eff orts prove to be of value and you desire it, a minor official posi tion will be tendered to you. Once you have reached this point your continued progress in politics and official life will depend altogether upon your own wishes and ability. If you do not care to be an officeholder and your income be large enough to warrant it, you will be asked, to join the general committee of Tammany Hall, a body of voters num bering several thousand, the chief duty of whose members is to contribute an nually $5 each to the fund from which Tammany Hall is ostensibly maintained. The aggregate of the contributions of the general committee is very large. This committee has certain functions to perform besides contributing, but the real policy of Tammany Hall is directed by the organization committee, consist ing of about 60 men. By it are chosen the various executive committees of Tam many. The most important is the finance committee. Its chairman is the real "boss." Richard Croker held this post during the period of his supremacy. So did John Kelly and Augustus Schell and all the rest of them back to the days of Tweed. Little is known by those not members of the inside workings of this committee. As all the world knows, those who are opposed to Tammany claim that the mystery surrounding the finance committee exists because its do ings would not bear the light. It is not my purpose to discuss this question, but to bring out the fact of Tammany's remarkable organization and in some faint degree to show its basis. It would not be possible in the space at command to describe in detail the methods by which Tammany keeps track of the voters of New York and by which it is possible for the chief men of the organization to predict in advance with reasonable accuracy the outcome of any election, but one of the most important features may be mentioned. Perhaps a week before election a meeting of dis trict leaders is held at the wigwam on Fourteenth street. This is a most im portant meeting for the leaders, and their future depends upon the accuracy of their statements then made. The Tammany society is an entirely different thing from Tammany Hall, as the political Organization is known. The society is a small and very wealthy body. It owns the wigwam, as Tam many's four story brick home on Four teenth street is called, and Tammany Hall, the political organization, has al ways enjoyed the use of the building rent free. The exact relations of the two organizations are about as incom prehensible to the non-Tammany man as are the relations existing between the federal government of the United States and the governments of the sepa rate states to the average British editor. The Original Society. The Tammany society, or Columbian order, was founded in 1789. It is claim ed that its original object was to offset in some degree the Society of the Cin cinnati, membership in which was al lowed to none but officers in the Revolu tion or their descendants, the basic prin ciple of the Tammany society being the absolute political equality of all voters. The name was taken from that of an In dian chief, "Tammaunnd. He was Bometimes called "St. Tammany," for he is said to have been a good Indian, and his "day," May 12, was celebrated with great enthusiasm in New York during the first years of the republic The chief officer of the Tammany socie ty is called the grand sachem. It might be possible for tho grand sachem of the Tammany society to be a non-Tammany man, politically considered, and I be lieve this has happened once or twice, though it is not very likely that it will occur again soon. The Tammany society leading feature is, in a way, a mutual benefit organization. It is true, there is no formal insurance feature, but it is also true that the family of no deceased member of the society left without means upon the death of the member has been allowed to suffer. The Local Clubs. Returning to Tammany Hall, the po litical organization, in conclusion some mention should be made of its local branches, or clubs. These are not named Tammany branches, nor is there proba bly any clause in the constitution of any of them connecting it with Tammany Hall. But the president of each club is usually the district leader, and the closest sympathy is maintained between the main organization and each of the local clubs. It sometimes happens that the president of a club becomes dissatis fied with the general course of Tamma ny and essays to sever relations between the two bodies. This very thing occur red not long ago in the case of the Har lem Democratic club, whose president left Tammany and succeeded in carry- TAMMANY HALL IN 1811. ing the club with him. But in a very 6hort time the membership of the club decreased materially, and a new club called the Sagamore arose, to which all the steadfast Tammany members of the Harlem Democratic club now belong. "If you write about Tammany, said the Tammany man from whom I have obtained most of the foregoing infor mation, "you should call attention to the fact, for it is undoubtedly a fact, that the free use of the wigwam by Tammany Hall has undoubtedly con tributed as much as anything to the long continued life of the organization. When Tammany has fallen upon evil days for there have been such times; its treasury has been low, and disorgani ation has stared it in the face it has never been necessary to raise money to pay rent, nor have the meetings been thif ted alxut from place to place, as in the case of the County Democracy, Irv ing Hall and other local Democratic or ganizations. L D. Marshall, 31 KS. LEASE'S KUSBAND Drawn from Ilia Obscurity by a Newspaper Correspondent. HE DOES THE FAMILY HOUSEWORK. An Old BroUen Down Man White Hatred, and. fourteen Tears Older Thau airs. .Lease. A special writer of the St. Louis Post Dispatch has made a visit to the home of M rs. Lease at Wichita and given the world a pen picture of Mr. Charles. L. Lease, the husband of the noted woman reformer. The Post-Dispatch says: When I rapped at the door an old man with- long, white mustache, almost as bald as an infant and with only a thin fringe of white hair to protect the back of his neck, responded. He was care lessly and shabbily dressed and there was a week's growth of beard on his face. I told him I wanted to see Mr. Leaset "That's me." "So you are Mrs. Lease's husband?" "Yes, I'm he, or all that's left of him." I introduced myself and was given a cordial welcome and invited to step in. He gave me the best chair in the house and then sat down and freely answered every question I asked. I grew to like me oia cnap, he was so genial and kind, anxious, apparently, to make me com fortable and give me all the information I wanted about Mrs. Lease and the fam ily. He got photographs of all except himself, explaining that he had not had a picture taken in so many years that he had almost forgotten what a camera looks like. I asked him to go down town with me and have one taken and he said: No; just put in mother's and thechil4 dren and leave me out, and I'll be very much obliged. I don't amount to any thing, anyway." While we were talking I sketched his face as well as I could. He told me everything about himself there is to tell, I should presume, though that wasn't much. He is fourteen years older than Mrs. Lease. He was brought up on a farm near Freeport. I1L. and left home to become an apothecary, finally moving iu iYsusiia, w iie re ne married joan or Arc. He failed in business, and with the failure ambition fled. He impressed me as a man who had been crushed by ad versity, and who had not the slightest de sire to ever make another effort to get on his feet. He is very proud of his wife and very proud of his children, and unless I am greatlv mistaken he will be contented to live always as he is living now, the housekeeper for an ambitious public woman, a mere grain of sand in the desert waste of humanity. While he was calling the children I took a look through the sitting-room and the parlor. They are -plainly fur nished, but the general aspect is home like and everything is as neat as wax. 1 glanced at the volumes in the book case and found them to be chiefly stand ard works. Mrs. Lease has certainly selected her books with nice discrimina tion. Airs. Lease's Children. The children were brought in, the, father fairly aglow with pride as he in troduced them. Charley, the eldest, a boy of iy, is attending the State Uni versity at Lawrence, so I did not see him, but was told by the others, who thnk he is the smartest boy on earth, that he is studying law and has published several volumes of verses. Louise comes next, aged 13. She is a second edition of her mother and a won derful child. She is as ladylike in her deportment as a cultured woman of 3i and she can converse as intelligently and use as good language as many girls who are twice her age. fc-he is the youngest pupil in the high school, and this is her second year. Sshe has read al! the works of Dickens, George Eliot, Washington lrv.ng and even Balzac, besides count less others. I asked her what she in tended doing when she completed her studies, and she replied that it is her in tention to remain iu school until she is 82, taking- a thorough course in both law and medicine, after which she may fol low her mother's course and engage in politics. It amused me much to hear this child talk eloquently and logically on the suffrage question, berating men and lauding women, arguing with me the equal rights of women to ballot on all political issues and to hold office un der state and national governments. It was not the parrot-like utterance of most smart children, for she was well equip ped to argue every phase of her side of the question. Annie, her sister, or '"Jim" as the family call her, is unlike Louise. She would rather ride a bicycle or climb a tree than study, and it is her ambition to be a famous musician and painter. Ben Hur is a bright, roguish boy, as mis chievous as any boy can be, yet grave and sedate in addressing strangers. He wants to be an author. All of the children are devoted to their mother and speak of her as the noblest and grandest woman in the world. If any one has an idea that either of the chil dren or the husband feels that Mrs. Lease neglects them he should spend a morning at their home, as I did, and he will speedily become convinced that he is mistaken. They would like to see more of her, but they think she has far greater duties to occupy her time than attending to their small wants. I talked with Mr. Lease about keeping house. .Airs. Lease Hie Provider. He said he did most of the work, be cause he enjoyed it and it gave him something to occupy his time. Louise, he said, helped him with the cooking, but had an aversion to all other kinds of housework, and as she is so much like hef mother, and is determined to lead the same kind of life, he doesn't try to coerce her. "You may think it strange," continued Mr: Lease, "that I am content to stay in the house and live this sort of quiet, humdrum life, but the fact is I am per fectly satisfied. I have had my day in the world, and having made a failure of everything I have, undertaken, I want mother to have a show. We are all of us very proud of mother, she is so smart and brainy; We, that is me and the children, think she is the greatest woman in the world, and I guess there are a great many others who think so too." "And you don't mind her being en gaged in politics while you stay at home and do the housework?" "Not at alL Of course, we would like to see more of mother than we do, for we all love her very dearly, but you see mother belongs to the world now, and if I-V.UrR.Tf If 11 IL f l M -dn in mm it Floats 15 NOT L05T THE PHOOTEH a GAMBLE CO.
