TWENTY-SECOND YEAR 'r A FOUL OUTRAGE Adjutant General Tarsney of Colorado, Taken to the Prairie and Tarred and Feathered. Seven Masked Men Perform the Dastardly Act. TAKEN FROM A HOTEL AtColorado Springs at the Point of Revolvers. He Is Not Foun t Until This Afternoon. GREAT EXCITEMENT At. Denver and Throughout the State of Colorado. "Deputies" Held Responsible for the Crime. Colorado Springs, CoL, June 23. Ad jutant General Tarsney was kidnapped from the Alamo hotel a few minuted lfter midnight by marked men, taken to ;he suburb in a hack and, and there tarred and feathered. Seven unknown men took part in the outrage. After the ordeal General Tarsney was left lying ou the-prairie. When officers arrived on the spot where the outrage took place. General Tarsney could not be found, and up to 8 a. m. he had noc been heard from. A large posse is scouring the prairie in search of him. Tue kidnapping caused the greatest sensation and excitement here as soon as the fact became public, and also at Crip ple Creek, to which place the telephone immediately carried the news. General Tarsney has been in the city for several days attending the examination of the arrested Hull hill miners, for whom he and CoL B. F. Montgomery of Cripple Creek appeared as attorneys. Called to the Ttlsplisna. At five minutes st 12 o'clock a call came over the telephone for Tarsney. The clerk sent the night porter, theonly other uiiu in the hotel office, to call Gen. Tarsney. lie appeared in a few moments and stepped up to the 'phone. He had hardly spoken a word into the receiver, when two men, with masks on their faces entered from the street. One hastily advanced on Gen. Tarsney, the other remained near the door just in side the office. -VVe want you," said the first masked man as the general turned his face from the 'phone on hearing footsteps. The scared hotel clerk and porter were the only witnesses. What do you want?" quietly asked Tarsney. "We want you to come with us." was the reply. "But I don't want to go anywhere," re turned Tarsney, at the same time making an effort to retreat. At this the masked man lunged for ward pistol in hand, and struck Gen. Tarsney a vicious blow with the weapon. The masked man near the door ad vanced to his companion's assistance. Tarsney 9taggered toward the office counter, lie was ruthlessly seized by the two masked men and hurried toward the street. The clerk did not interfere. He had been warned to keep hands olT by a third masked man who had suddenly appeared at the door. In front of the hotel two hacks were Btaudiug. Four other masked men were seen there. Drivers, who it was after ward learned had been intimidated, sat on the cab boxes. Huslltil Into Hack. The victim was hustled into one of the vehicles, the maxked men scrambled into them, the drivers were ordered to be off, and up the street the party moved at a mad gallop. In fifteen minutes Police Captain Gaithright and Officers Harlan aud Hen ry were on horses and riding furiously in the direction taken by the kidnappers and their victim. The officers had a poor trail to follow, it was pitch dark, and they only knew that the masked party had gone out of town to the north. It was over an hour before the facts became known. The drivers of the two hacks first brought the news to town. It was that the maskers had taken their victim to a point near Austin Bluffs, be tween two and three miles out of town and after removing Gen. Tarsney's clothes, had covered him with tar and feathers. bherman Crumley, one of the drivers, told the following story: Iy brother aad I own the hacks. Shortly "before midnight two men came to our stand and said they wanted to en gage two hacks for a drive. They did not wear masks then. They told me to drive in front of the Alamo. I saw the struggle inside the hotel office and knowing that something unus ual was up, I started to drive away, but ws stopped by men with masks on their faces and pistols in their hands. "After they all got in the hack, I was told where to drive for the first time. They compelled me to whip the horses. Threatened Tutaty't Lif. On arriving at a point near Austin Bluffs they ail got out. They made an awful lot of noise and kept on twearing and making threats. Several times ou the way out, I heard them threaten Tars ney's life. "I think they had Tarsney's clothes off by the time they ordered the hack stopped, at least I did not see many clothes on him when I first saw him on the ground. They had a bucket and a br'jsh and the deed was soon done." if com Driver Crumley It is learned that Officers Gaithright, Harlan and Henry arrived just as the coat of tar and feath ers was being put on. Officer Steve Harlan was in advance. Two of the masked men advanced to meet him and commanded him to remain, on his horse where he was. The other officers were stopped by other masked men. A few minutes later Tarsney was left lying on the ground, and the masked men took to the hacks. They drove to the Rock Island tracks and there dis missed their drivers, not paying them but simply saying: "Good night Johnny." That was the last seea of the masked men, and the drivers came on to the city. Driver Crumley says that after the tar and feathers had been applied Tarsney was told to move .on out of El Paso county, that he was not wanted either in Cripple Creek or Colorado Springs,- and that if he ever showed up again lie would meet a worse fate than a dose of tar and feathers. There was a meeting of 25 deputy sheriffs in Antlers' park at 10 o'clock last night, and it is believed the plot against Gen. Tarsney was hatched there. The hack drivers, Sherman Crumley and Jean McKinnty, have been arrested and released on ther own recognizance, as they declare thy do not know any of the kidnappers and were forced at the point of revolvers, to take the party to Austin Bluff. Crumley, who owns both hacks, say one man remained with Tarsney ostensibly to show him the way back to the city. Some of the men wanted to kill Tarsney but their leader held them in check. Tarsney thanked this man and shook hands with him. A citizens' meeting has been called to denounce the outrage. EXCITEME.Nr AT DESTHR. A. Special Train Ord.red to Frocned to Coloriwlu Spring1.

IT IS INTENSELY HOT Which Makes it Good for Saloons and Horses. Rain Fell at 2:15 Threatening Heavy Goinar. Chicago, June 23. Forty five thousand people swarmed into Washington Park today to see the ruuniusr of the Ameri- can Derby the greatest horse race in j the western turf world. It was a crowd smaller in numbers than that 'which j watched the race of last year when Boundless won his greatest and his last victory and made nis owners independ ently rich. However, what the crowd lacked in uumbars as compared with that of a year ago,- it more than mude up in enthusiasm. The weather was perfect for horse racing, which is another way of saying that it was practically unbearable for mankind. Today was one of those days, made to order for race horses and the saloon bus iness, and the vast crowd which packed the grassy slope in front of the grand stand and filled to the last inch every available portion of the stand itself, panted, perspired and waited in more or less patience for the calling of the Deirby candidates to the post. The betting ring was a sight to a man outside of it, and a bitter experience to him on the inside of it. It was jammed to suffocation by a pushing, struggling mass of men anxious to place their money on the horse of their choice. The space inside the track was jammed with a thousand vehicles of all sizes, styles, shapes and conditions, from the tally-ho of the rich man, who had wor ried himself foolish over the color of the wheels and the style of the harness, down to sulkies, go-carts' and grocery wagons. Senator Grady the Popular Choice. In the popular mind. Senator Grady was the favorite, although Domino push ed him closely for first place. The chief thing which kept money off Dominowas the fact that he had reached the track so late that many bettors had a strong sus picion that the unbeatan son of Himyar had not given sufficient time to round to after his journey. His great rec ord and the look of a race horse which is to be seen in every muscle of his blick coated frame, held his friends to him and gained him more throughout the day. Grady's odds, which two days ago were even with those on Domino, were lower today, he selling at 2 to 1, while Keene's horse was held at 3 to 1, when the books opened. Grady's odds were unaffected by the report that on Thursday he had gone the Derby distance with Dorian and finished five lengths behind him. This little thing did not worry trainer Byrnes, and as one ofathe stable men de clared, "the Senator knows as much as any man, and a mighty sight more than most senators." Prince Carl, the brown colt of the Ken dall stables, was fancied by a few, but carried little money. Despot, Corrigan's entry was liked by many who have seen his fast and game performances. He carried enough money to buy him three times over. Dorian was strongly fancied by a large contingent and every foot he won or lost, was worth a hundred dollars in the ring. Jockeys and Weight. Following are the starters, weights and jockeys: HORSE. WKIGHT. JOCKEY. 1---6 Taral. lHlllHIHl henaior orauy I2vi (.arnsou. Hornpipe 122 Hamilton. Jiov El iSauita Anita vz-i Van Kuren.

A storm came up about 2 :15 p. m., which threatened to make heavy going for the Derby. Rain fell in the liveliest sort of fashion. The rain caused a rush to back the colt Despot, many arguing that he was at his best in the mud. WEALERS DISCHARGED. Judge Hallett Lets the Jalibnr lows so With One Kxcptlon.

A Tnin Firefl Into mid Bridge Blown Up With 1 y i in i I v North Enid, Ok., June 23. Aa the south bound passenger train was passing through Bound Pond last night several shots were fired into it, but without any damage. A short time afterwards a part of the bridge over a stream at that place was blown up with dynamite and about 300 feet of track torn up. A few days ago the Rock Island brought suit in the Oklahoma district court against Individuals in Round Pond to recover damages to the amount of $75,000 for the wreck at that place two weeks ago, and the blowing up of the bridge last night was no doubt for re venge. The road for a number of mile3 south of Round Pond has been in the hands of the government ever since the first wreck and the parties who blew up the bridge last night will have to answer to the gov ernment and not the company. Every thing is quiet there today. I IN GROYER'S FAT RIDS. Tillman Says He'll Put a Pitchfork There When He's Elected. Camden. S. C, June 23. In the joint speech-making of Governor Tillman and Senator Butler today, the governor said: "Mr. Cleveland would rather see Butler in the senate than to have Ben Tillman fo there. If if I go there I promise that will use a pitchfork in his old fat ribs." Senator Butler devoted some time to the idle talk about the assassination of Governor Tillman and, walking up to him with outstretched arms, said: "I'll guard him myself, and in heaven's name let him stop that penny game of dema gogy. What is he doing it for except to excite your sympathy? Its all nonsense. He has played that card for the last time and I promise I'll guard him all the time if he will just stop about being killed."

Krastus Wimas appears to have con sidered himself as necessary to Dun's agency as Grover Cleveland does to the United States. Southern Kansas his been visited by a generous downpour of rain, but the best part of it is that no one said any thing about Jupiter Pluvius. The Sutro tunnel in the Comstock range has been attached. Tunnels have always been considered by jokers as fa vorable places to display attachments. When Farmer Fo.nst.on heard the re port of the house committee on elections, he wished he had Superintendent Gaines' ability so he could do the matter justice. American workmen would hardly have stood it to be driven back to work as the striking Lisbon bakers were but the Portuguese didn't mind it, they are bred that way. Congress seems determined that the American Indian shall become extinct, for the house has declared in favor of making him earn his own living as soon as possible. From the ovation CoL Breckinridge received at Illnton, W. Va., yeate rday it would appear to be a good political move to change his residence to that state and run for congress. The buying of stock by S3nator Mc Pherson's servant Is likely to still fur ther complicate the hired girl question. None of them will hereafter take work unless there is a ticker in the house. If Coxey gets to congress, as it seems not improbable now that he may, he should be assigned a seat beside some thinskinned eastern member who took delight this spring in calling him hobo. It has been decide! that Cleveland has power to order out troops in the dif ferent states. If he makes as great a success of it as he has of ordering out Republicans, the army might as well be preparing to move. Senator Sherman's attention was called to the fact that he supported an income tax during the war, and opposes It now. Mr. Sherman may be justly proud of his long service in congress, but he realizes that it has its drawbacks. Kelly is levying tlackmail on the towns through which he passes by threatening to stay unless he gets what he demands. One town offered him $200 to move on, but he demanded $700. If he keepa on increasing his fund, by the time he gets to Washington the senate will be most ready to give him a respect ful hearing. Another indication that there will be fusion between the Populists and Demo crats in this campaign is the announce ment that the Dickinson county delega tion to the Democratic state convention Is to be headed by Sidney G. Cooke of Ilerington, and he has announced that he will make a fight for the endorsement of the Populist state ticket nominated at last week's convention. Cooke's an nouncement la more than enough to offset the statement that Senator Martin wants the coming convention to nominate straight ticket and in the minds of the Populists who want fusion, this settles th matter. Cooke was recently elected by the lower house of congress to suc ceed Major E. X. Morrill as a member of the National Board of Managers of Soldiers Homes and in announcing his position for fusion he is no doubt in tending to get even with Senator Martin who did not give him his influence for the appointment of pension agent. Bouxder (Col.) Camera: Let us hope that in the event the women of Kansas secure equal suffrage with men they will not forget that the People's party was the first possessed of the' courage and fairness to demand the right of women to vote. It remains to be seen whether the women of Colorado will re member that it was the People's party which gave them the power to vote the right was always theirs, but it had been denied them by the Republican and Democratic parties. Geo, W. Martin says in his Kansas City, Kansas, Gazette: "Only a few men can aspire to public places. The great mass of the people have to Etay at home and pay the bill3. There are many t hat might be put forward. Then why should one that has made a reputation for dirt only be eternally and forever world with out end kept in place that he may make more dirt? We never realize the impor tance and interest there 5s in the idea of a new crowd, until w canvassed the state last, spring and mat in various towns the brightest and cleanest locking lot of young fellows, doing local politics, who might be advanced to the front. We must have new blood, at all events we must have clean blood. We must have men on the ticket that people can sup port with some enthusiasm. We have no time for apologies or explanations.

Barrio Is a Writer With a ttytm of His Own. "A man with a style of his own' is the way Louise Chandler Moulton char acterized James Matthew Barrie, the young novelist whose pictures of Scotch life and character have given hiti world wide fame. The characterization is true enough, but it is not to his original lit erary style that Mr. Barrie owes his won derful popularity. It is to the graphic, quaintly humorous and fondly reminis cent descriptions and masterly delinea tions of character contained in "Auld .Licht Idyls," "A Window In Thrums" and "The Little Minister," which have preserved in forms of genius the beauti ful idealization of the life of a commu nity almost extinct and. dying hard. No man should know the people of the Auld Licht kirk better than J. M. Barrie, for he was born among then in that town of Kerriemuir, in Fon&ar- t3NkaV fj JAMES MATTHEW BARRTE. hire, which ha has idealized at "Thrums," on May 9, 1860. He gradu ated at Edinburgh university in 1882. He had done some literary work at col lege and naturally gravitated to jour nalism. He went to Nottingham and took a place on the Btaff of The Jour nal, where he performed hack work for three years and then went to London. During the last month of his stay in Nottingham he sent articles to London newspapers. The first to be accepted was one on the making of penny dread fuls, which Mr. Stead printed in the Pall Mall Gazette. He sent his first Auld Licht sketch to Mr. Greenwood of the St. James Gazette, who blished it in November, 1884. To M Green wood Barrie dedicated "Auld Licht Idyls." Barrie established himself in London early in 1885. He contributed to The Gazette and to The Anti-Jacobin dur ing its short life. Some of his articles had been reprinted in "My Lady Nico tine. "Better Dead" was published in the winter of 1887. "When a Man's Single" was published in the September of 1888, and in the following May "A Window In Thrums" appeared. "A Window In Thrums" gave Barrie a place in literature. The world "discovered" a new liter ary light and did not hesitate to do him homage. Since then Barrie has pub lished a number of books, each one of which, has been very successful and very profitable. In person Mr. Barrie is slight and though of delicate physique is not delicate, but is a great lover of games and out of door sports. He is very mod est and dislikes to be lionized by the literary Pharisees of London. HASTINGS AND LYON. They Head the Republican Stat Ticket, of Pennsylvania. General Daniel Hart man Hastings, who has been nominated by the Repub licans for governor of Pennsylvania, is one of the best known men in the com monwealth, having long been promi nent in politics and in the state militia. He was born in Clinton county Feb. 26, 1849. He was educated in the publio schools and began teaching school at an early age. When only 18, he was elect ed principal of the Bellefonte high school and held that position for eight years, varying his duties a part of the time by acting as assistant editor of the Bellefonte Republican. At the same time he studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1875. General Hastings enlisted in the national guard in 1877. He revived rapid promotion and in 1884 was elected colonel of the Fifth regi- HASTINGS AND LYON. nent He resigned his commission as colonel in 1887 to accept the office of adjutant general, to which he was ap pointed by Governor Beaver. General Hastings was in command of the relief corps at J ohnstown after the great floods of 1889, and his services there are well remembered. He was an unsuccessful candidate for the gubernatorial nomina tion before the Republican state conven tion of 1890, which chose George W. Delamater. Walter Lyon, candidate for lieuten ant governor on the ticket with General Hastings, is an Alleghany lawyer and was born in that county 41 years ago. He was admitted to the bar in 1877 and has been in active practice ever since. He has always been interested in poli tics and has been a delegate to Republic an state conventions ever since 1881. He was temporary chairman of the conven tions of 1887 and 1889 and permanent chairman of the 1890 convention. In 1889 Mr. Lyon was appointed United States attorney for the western district of Pennsylvania and resigned the of fice in 1893 to take seat in the state enate. MASONIC.' A national Heme For Consumptives ro- poeed -Treetleboarsl Designs. At a recent special meeting of Montezu ma lodge, Santa Fe, a movement was Inaugurated which promises to be of in estimable benefit to suffering humanity. With the consent of the grand roaster of the grand jurisdiction of Nev.TIexIoo a resolution was adopted setting forth the fact that the death rate from consumption is Increasing at an alarming rate all over the world; that the benefits of climatic cure are now universally recognized by physicians; that the most perfect climate is found at Santa r e and Inviting the Ma sons of the United States and Canada to co-operate with Montezuma lodge In the erection in Santa Fe of a national home for consumptives, to bo governed and main tained by Masons for benevolent and charitable purposes. In England the Increase of lodges never ceases. The number now exceeds 2,500. A poet proclaims that truth Is a king who is greater than Solomon and whose master building is the temple of humani ty. God is truth, and he is that King. The Masons of Ohio are endeavoring to raise the requisite fund to erect a monu ment to the memory of the late Rev. La fayette van Cleve, grand chaplain. Charity is the chief of every social vir tue and the distinguishing characteristic of jVIasons. You must consult your health by not continuing together too late or too long f romy our home after lodge hours are past, and by the avoidance of gluttony or drunkenness, that your families be not neg lected or injured nor you disabled from working. Old Masonic Charges. Masonic bodies have always been noted for dignified decorum, where smoking is never permitted, save In the anteroom, but lately the loose influence of some free and easy societies to which many Masons belong for beneficiary reasons is becoming apparent. Bro. Charles Carroll Hayes la grand master of Masons in New Hampshire, and Comp. W. H. W. Hinds Is grand high priest. A convention of royal and select mas ters of Illinois will be held at Blooming- ton on July 12 and 13. Under "Ancient Masonry" is under stood the history of the craft before and under "Modern Masonry" the history of the craft after the era of the grand lodges, the line of demarcation being drawn at the year 1717. The greatest American Mason, Albert Pike, made a true but startling statement, confirmed by Holy Writ, however, when ho said, "Evil Is merely apparent, and all in reality is good and perfect." The language of Masonry is known all over the world. No matter what the tongue of the nation may be, its peculiar dialect is recognized. UNITED WORKMEN.

Ancient Order of Foresters of America. The order was introduced into America about 35 years ago. In August, 1889, at a convention held at Minneapolis, com posed of 600 delegates, the American courts declared themselves "free and Inde pendent," under the title of the Ancient Order of Foresters of America. The order furnishes the members a physician and medicine free and pays a weekly sick benefit, a funeral benefit and a benefit on the death of a member's wife. Koyal Arcanum.

AVER'S A S ErrrnOLInHAixR .-VsTmT CATARRH 1 PajEBITTNER CO., Tolsoo. O WOMAN'S WORLD. AN ARGUMENT AGAINST WOMAN'; SUFFRAGE THAT IS NOT SOUND. A Japanese Girl Student The Kihta ot Women The Divided Skirt on Horse beck Miss Philbrooke'a Application Xe nled Woman's l oot Growing Larger. 1 One of .the strong arguments used by the opponents of woman's rights is that she ia not mechanical, and that wome: have done nothing to contribute to the comfort of tho labor saving devices that are used eyen in their own homes. "Whatever truth there may have been in this objection, we cannot eee where it applies against suffrage. It is evident, however, that women are entering that field which men have hitherto claimed as exclusi vely their own. We Fee by the latest English patent reports that even in Great Britain women are entering the departments of the mechanical arts with success. I.Irs. Maria Goltz of Lon don has recently taken out a patent foi a very valuable improvement in cook ing stoves. Miss Jlnria Kirchnsr of the same city has secured a patent for an improvement in such woven articlas as hats, shoe uppers, glo es and the like. 3Irs. Susie Simmons of Kent has se cured patents for an Rpparatus for pre venting accident? due to collisions on railroads or of ordinary vehicles. In America women have entered the field of science as well equipped and with as strong and correct a spirit of in vestigation as tho men. Already they occupy a high position in the medical profession, and old practitioners are no longer afaid of losing caste by meeting women doctors in consultation. Mauy American women graduates are taking a postgraduate course in biology and the study of lower organic life. Higher special work is largely confined at pres ent to women of Kcholarly leisure and liberal income. The best facilities for pursuing these epeeialized studies are to be had at Cambridge, Cornell, Bryn Mawr and Johns Hopkins university. All women's colleges In the country are in close communication with the bureaus of meteorology and astronomy in "Washington and the United States. It is flattering to the sex and to the men who admire them to know that college bred women are employed as computers in the observatories of Harvard and Yalo and ia the Naval observatory at "Washington. The facts that lt-d to Pro fessor Pickering's late theory as to dou ble stars wero the discovery of Miss Murray of Harvard. The sociological problems of the day are evoking special ized search in domestic science and san itation, the demonstrations of which were to be 6een at the "World's fair in the New York model workingmen'a home. It should be said in this connec tion that the advances made by women have not been accomplished, as some might believe, through the assistance given by men, but rather in the face of the most violent opposition. And so we say all hail to the advancement of intel lectual women. New York Dispatcn. A Japanena Girl Student. Radcliffe college, formerly Harvard annex, has among its undergraduates this year the first Japp nese girl who has come to this country for an education. She is Miss Shids-Mori, and she is a charming combination of Japanese fea tures, English dress, American coiffure and Japanese-Anglo language. She has been at Raclcliffo einco the beginning of the midwinter term, but sho has been keeping shyly out of sight until the oth er night, when there was an entertain ment given by Dr. Sargent's school. Then the ehy little Japanese maid came forth a -d gave a juggling exhibition with as much ease as if sho wero on a variety stage instead of pursuing a classical education in Cambridge. Since i that time she has been very much the fashion. Her father is a wealthy banker of Yanagawa K-iushu, Japan, and all the family are devoted Christians. Miss Mori has come, to this country to fit her self by study for missionary work in her native country. "I came over," she says, "with Mr. and Mrs. Davis, who were missionaries to Japan, sent out by the Methodist church. My father was converted and baptized into the Presby terian church, and I was educated in Japan in a mission school directed by Congregationalisms. I do not think the denomination makes any difference All I care for is the Christian church at large, so I do not pay any attention at all to the differences in the creeds. Mr. Davis was settled about 50 miles that is, about 80 of your miles, from my home and I went to their home and lived for a little while before I came to this country. My father thought I might better do so to get used to Amer ican food and learn to eat with a knife and fork and to wear the American dress, etc. No, I do not think it is so pretty as the Japanese dress, and the waists of your dresses I do not like. We do not wear any corset, you know, with our Japanese dress, and we are so much more comfortable all the time, especial ly in the summer. But the lower part of your dresses seems bettsr to me. The underwear and the skirts I like. They are easier to get about ia. Oh, really, very much I like America, what of it I have seen. And the American girls, they seem so bright to me and so nice. I like them very much. New York Tribune. The Ki?i(a of Women. It is not quite eauy to explain the vi tality at the present hour of certain old questions affecting what are called the rights of women. Men have been pa tiently, and, on the whole, conscien tiously trying to give due recognition of these rights for the last quarter of a century.

The museum is open to the public free of charge Saturdays and Sundays. On other days an ad mission fee ot 25 cents is charged. er more free than a man to do what sho likes with her own. The learned professions are open to women, and the universities have at least furnished them with "annexes" and admitted them to competition for degrees. They can give their minds to the study of Greek or the making of puddings; they can become journalists or take to fenceing with the small sword they can sit on school boards or bet on horse races, and nobody has either protest or comment to offer on the eman cipation of the sex. But it seems that all this ia not enough, or, rather, that it has merely created an appetite for more. Female familiarity with occupations hitherto pursued by men appears to have devel oped a certain contempt for the male intelligence. Man, it seems, is a sad bungler whom women "have allowed to arrange the whole social system and manage or mismanage it all these ages without ever seriously examining his work with a view to considering wheth er his abilities and his methods were sufficiently good to qualify him for the task. But liow that she has begun the long deferred process of examination and judgment man is found wanting and must take a back seat. Boston Herald. The Divided Skirt on Horseback. That portion of the woman's auxiliary of the Chicago hussars who rido on horseback have been having a heated discussion as to whether or not the di vided skirt as a riding habit is desirable. When Mrs. Charles G. Ccbb roda iu a divided skirt in the arena at Tatter sails', at tho invitation of the hussars, she made a sensation. When two of the members lately adopted it, strong oppo sition became manifest. Mrs. "William Mida, 4230 Grand Boulevard, and Mrs. E. E. Egerton, 2121 Michigan avenue, are the members who ride after the manner of men. They say that several women are having divided skirts made, and soon a woman in a side saddle will be a sight as rare as it is now common. Mrs. Mida, on being asked about it, said: "Yes; I wear the divided skirt. I would not rid -3 any other way, and my husband would not be willing tp have mo cither. It is the only way to ride, and I do not care what remarks are made about it. One enjoys greater ease iu the saddle and can sit with absolute firmness. I think it is more graceful, more modest and less conspicuous than the other way. I will tell you about Mrs. Egerton's experience the other day on the boulevard," continued Mrs. Mida. "She was riding in her divided skirt and met a gentleman whom she knew. He rode by her side. She wait ed for him to speak about her style of riding, but as ho c'id not she said, 'You haven't said anything about the way I am riding.' IIo replied, 'Why, I had not noticed it. Woman's 'Journal. Sliss Philbrooke'a Application Denied. Miss Mary Philbrooko of Hoboken, the first woman to apply to the New Jersey supremo court for examination for admission to practice as an attornoy at law, failed to receive tho privilege the other d3y. Justice Reed made the acnonncemeat and later filed a short opinion giving tho reasons of the court for its denial. The opinion says that until the Icgislaturo grants to women tho privilege of becoming attorneys at law tho weight of reason and authority is against the existence of the right. The Massachusetts case, in which ad mission was refused to Leiia J. Robin son in June, 1881, is referred to and the conclusions concurred in. In that case it was held that the word "citi zen, when used in its more common and comprehensive sense, doubtless in cludes women, but a woman is not by virtue of her citizenship vested by tho federal or Massachusetts constitutions with absolute right to take part in the j government either as a voter or as an j officer to be admitted to practice as an attorney. Miss Philbrooke studied law MUSEUM, CHICAGO. m the office of Gaede Minturn, at Hoboken, and made application at the opening of the February term, but her case was laid over to give the justices opportunity for consultation. She is a notary public, having received a com mission as such under the Voorhees law passed by the last legislature. It is probable that the next legislature will be asked to pass a law making women eligible to practice law. Woman's Toot Growing larger. It is now an open fact that feet are growing larger as one consequence of that outdoor life led by so many girls of the period. The tiny slipper once so raved about in poetry and prose as a positive inspiration when worn by pretty women will come to be regarded as a corf of antediluvian relic, dating from a time when feet were practically unused, their owners being as adverse to active exercises as a lap dog. The heavy tread of the beetle crushing foot will be heard in the land, and even ultra fashionables will have to confess to fives, sixes or sevens as their size. With little hysteric al giggles they will profess wonder ment at the way their feet have grown since they took to lawn tennis, physical culture andv.-alking tours, and they can console themselves with the reflection that many other young women have the same tale to tell. How long, think you, will the high French heel continue in favor, now that women are so much on their feet? It is a form of torture, all said and done, if anything like a good walk is attempted, that clump under the middle of the sole just right for slant ing the foot at a misery producing angle and crushing the toes into a corner. I don't know how many women I have heard this last winter expatiating on the good results they have felt from the physical culture clcss and from regular daily walks. Providence Journal. Her Never Failing Influence. The influence of women on commer cial life is always the same and always as ornamental as it is useful. Just as they beautify the offices where they work so they decorate their last conquests, the stations of the elevated roads in Brook Tbe Boy Always Escapes. Officers Edmonson and Holdcn are tell ing a funny story on a man who conducts an establishment near Tenth and Market streets. The man became infatuated with a pretty widow who lives next door to his place. The two utilized the hydrant hose by which to converse, for the man was de tained at his place of business and the widow's sewing kept her lip stairs. The policemen suy that the two spent a good deal of their time talking through the rub ber hose. They kept this up until last Saturday afternoon. It was then that a small boy adjusted a piece of hose front the hydrant to the center of the improvised telephone and watched for the talkers to resume their conversation. The. policemen were standing near when the boy turned on the water. Tho stream struck the man squarely in the eur, nearly knockiug him down and thoroughly drenching him and his place of business. The woman, who had been talking through the other end of tho hose at the time, received the full force of tJie water in her mouth. It knocked her down and nearly strangled her. It also spoiled her sewing ii-.atcrial for that day. Tho boy escaped. Louisville Courier-Journal. Naturally Disqualified.

S TATE JOURNAL, SATURDAY EVENING; JUNE 23, 1894. R BEHIND ONE'S BACK. Talking That Kesults in a $5,000 Suit for Damages. TROUBLE IS THE LUTHERAS CHURCH. Mrs. Btfiit lillekter Stfea T. X. lttims for AccnuBlmjc Her of Theft Other Court Canes. Mrs. Rosana R. Schlichter filed a auit for $5,000 damages against T. L Witting in the district court today. The ground on which she asks the damage is defa mation of character and ruining her rep utation for integrity. The story of the case as told by the plaintiff' a attorney, S. B. Isenhart, is substantially this: In the summer of 1892 the Lutheran Sunday school gave an excursion and picnic at Bismarck Grove, near Law rence. Ice cream, lemonade and other hot weather dainties were sold. Mrs. Schlichter was among those who helped to make change at the cashier's table. When the event was over an in ventory of the receipts -and cash on hand revealed a shortage of about $25. It is charged of Witting that he accused Mrs. Schlichter at the time and on many occasions since with the theft. It is said that only a few, if any, believe the charge. These charges were never made to Mrs.Schlichter's face and she did not become aware of the ugly charges that had been going the rounds about her until a few days ago. Lawyer Isenhart says that while he dislikes slander cases he believes Mr. Witting has carried the case entirely too far and that his plaintiff is entitled to damages. Ot h.r Caurt Cues. E. A. Wagener, administrator of the estate of Mary M. Morhan, deceased, tiled a case in the district court today to recover $2,605 with interest, from Sam uel M. Morhan, 2iancy Morhan, and oth ers. The petition recites that when Mrs. Morhan died in August, 1893, she left $2,605 in cash, and that the relatives have fraudulently refused to turn any part of it over to him, as the administra tor of the estate. The case of Sylvina H. Bassett vs. J. li. Evans, et al., a foreclosure suit, was filed in the district court today. The district court whs in session only a short time this morning, and adjourned until Monday. Only minor legal busi ness was transacted. A n Assault Case.

Their conduct, it says, will place a fresh obsta cle in the way of a revival of confidence in American railway bonds.

He was cap tured, tried and convicted and sentenced to fifty years at Lansing. His right name is Thos. Jones, and he appears every inch an outlaw. His face is narrow and his eyes very close together. He evidently has never known what labor consists in, as his hands are small and thin. ONLY MEANT STALWARTS. A. H. Case Dlds't Uaso All Democrats In His KritnttrkH. To the Editor of the Siati Jocrsae: Sir: In your article last evening, headed "A Bitter Pill," you misquote me. I am not classing Democrats with negroes and criminals, as a party or as individuals, unless they come within the following classification: When I see negroes united on a measure, and the criminal classes universally supporting it no Democrat should be willing to assist them, and any Democrat who does so, I class with them. It is notorious that the criminal classes and the negroes are all opposed to woman suffrage. Certain Stalwart Democrats are trying to drag the Democratic party into the slime with them; should they succeed, we should be known of all men, by the company we keep. This is what I say and what I meant in yesterday's talk with your reporter. A. H. Cask. DE LEEUW WILL DO IT Tlie fancy Stone Work on the New Court House. George H. Evans, the contractor for the new court house, has engaged John De Leeuw to do the fancy stone cutting that will ornament many parts of the new county building. De Leeuw is a Frenchman and is said to be one of the most skilled workmen in his particular trade in the country. He did all of the "gingerbread work" on the new federal building at Fort Worth, of which Mr; Evans was the contractor. Mr. Evans has on exhibition at the county clerk's office some specimens of De Leeuw's work, the most conspicuous of which is a life-size bust of Mr. Evans. It is life-like. There are also a number of large pho tographs of the fancy stone-work carved by De Leeuw for the Fort Worth build ing. They are fine specimens. of work manship. WHEN SAYING BEGAN.

Major William Sims said today: "Do you kuow that there wasn't any money saving to farmers ia harvesting machin ery until the self-bindar was invented? "It cost just about the same to cut vheat with a cradle that it did with a sickle, and when the self-rake and drop per machines came into use still there was no saving, for four or five men had to be employed to bind and shock the wheat, but when the self-binder was in vented these men, with one or two ex ceptions, were not needed.
