V -1 'I TAKE A PEEP Into the Inside Workings of the Populist Campaign. A Private Letter From Chair man Jo' in 'Breidenthal. OFFlClAld XllE IJLEI) From Governor Down to the Humblest Janitor. Four Thousand Dollars Already Spent More "Wanted. The Populism 6tate campaign seems to have broken loose froni Chairman Breldanthal as shown by the following letter, written by him last Monday, July 23, wh'ioh was this morning receive 1 by Secretary Bristow at the 1 headquarters cf the Republican state central committee. This letter which "shows the Populist hand" in a most remarkable way con cludes as follows: Id order to Ieep up the campaign in the lined mapped out by the committee, I we mutt have more funds. The commit- I tee- has already expended over $4,000, most of whica has been Qor.tributed by the state oMicers and employe. We now issue an appeal to our friends and desire to hud una thousand I'opulists who will contribute fj.00 each. Will you be one of this uum oer'r If so, send your re mittance at oaci. The people in tlie western part of the state are unable to contribute anything to the campaign fund, and in order to elect members t the legislature from that section, t le campaign- expenses must be paid by the tstate committee. We muit secure control of the next leg islature jn order to redeem our pledges to the people. j In order that this letter may not fall into the hands cf the enemy, please write i your reply on tha back of this sheet and j return same to me. Job.' W. Brk iiexthal, Chairman, Siale Central Committee. This letter was seut by Chairman Breidenthal to a man who voted the Populist ticket two years ago, but who -had previous to that been a Democrat and who is in th.a campaign supporting the Democratic ticket. This Democrat turned it over to a friend of his who is a "Republican who immediately forwarded it to Secretary Eristow. The (Statement in this letter that over f 4,000 has already been expended by the "Populist committee shows that the com miuee expects to use a very large sum of money this campaign as it is understood that the expenditures of their committee i i the campaign of 1892 was only $4,30J. Secretary Sernple, of the Populist committee, today denied the statement made in an editorial of the Capital, that Breidenthal-had used money from the Topeka joints in the state campaign. Mr. Semple said: "We have received money from the Topeka police, but we have a record of all of it, and none of it came from the joints. Almost all the police men have contributed to our campaign fund. Patrolmen, who get $60 a month have put up $j for our committee, but we have a complete record of all money received and expended, and none of it came from the joints, although of course I don't know where the money comes that they contribute, any more than they know where the money comes from that I contribute." WJ7RE AFRAID OF" HER. That 410 Only Way England Maku I Behave. LoNrroy, July 26. Sir John Lubbock presided iu tlie .London chamber of com merce this eveniag, over a meeting of the-eity branch cf the imperial federa tion league, lie welcomed-the Canadian delegates heartdy. Mr. Deuison then spoke of the importance of maintaining the unity of the empire. Canada, he sail, was absolutely true to England, -and would resolutely tight against any movement to annex her to the United Males. Great enmity was felt in the United States toward England, Only the better educated and higher classes were frieadly to Great Britain. The peace -wus maintained only through fear of the British navy and 5, 000,000 Canadians. if France and Russia should comliin. agaiust Englar.d, the 'United States would join them. This emphasizsd the necessity for fed eration. Canadi was prepared to make great sacrifices for this, but she expected help from England.

Wrlrht't FIeure-ThBr Are of Great Importance. Washixuton, D. C, July 27. The commissioner of labor, Mr. Carroll D. Wright, has forwarded to the president his seventh special report, which relates entirely to the slums of Ne w York, Phil adelphia, Baltimore end Chicago, being the results of an investigation ordered by congress. Mr. Weight considers this one of the most valuable reports eman ating from the department oPlabor. The results of the present investiga tion relate only to the cities of New York, Pniladelphia, Baltimore anl Cni cago, and to certain districts within thosa cities concerning which there caa be no difference of opinion as to whether or aot they are slum districts. According to the best estimates, the total slum population of Baltimore is about 25 i00; of Cuicego 162,000; of New York 3t0.000; of Philadelphia 35,00 J. The districts selected are among the worst in the city and may be denomina ted as the centers of the slum popula tion. The bIUl.is of cities according to the dictionaries, are dirty back streets, especially such .streets as are inhabit ed by a squalid and criminal popula tion; they an low and dangerous neigh borhoods. The following is a brief summary of some of the results of the investigation: Liquor saloons Iu the city of New York there was, at the time of the inves tigation one saloon to every 200 persons, but in the rluin districts canvassed there was one saloon to every 12fc persons. In Philadelphia, in the city at large, there was one liquor saloon to every bTO persons, but in tue slum district cauvass ed there was oue such saloon to every 502 persons. In Baltimore, in the city at large, there was ne saloon to every 228 persons, but in the slum di.-itrict canvass ed there was ono aloon to every 10o per sons. In Chicago, in the city at large there was one caloon to every 212 per sons, while in the s-lum district canvass ed there was one saloon to every 127 par son. Sex Comparing the sex of the popu lation iu the slums to that of the whole city, it is found that in each c;ise the males predominate to a greater extent in the slum districts. In Chicago the dif ference is between 51. SS per cent, lor the whole city and 53.93 per cent, for the" slum districts. Iu New York the dif ference is between 49 S4 per cent for the whole city and 54;61 per ceut for the slums. Native and foreign born In Chicago the totaf foreign born in the city at large constitutes 40.US per cent cf the. popula tion, while in the slum district it is 57.51 per cent; -iu New Y ork the foreign born is 42.23 per cent of tho total population, while in the slum district it is tji.58 per cent The figures show conclusively that the proportion of foreign born per- sons in the tlums of each city, is very largely ia excess of the proportion of the whole population. This excess is in Baltimore, 24.24 per cent; iu Chicago, 16.53 per cent; in New work, 20.35, and iu Philadelphia, 3.71 per cent. Illiteracy In the city of Chicago at large the illiterates constitute .81 per cent of the "native born population and 8.31 of the foreign born, the percentage for both being 4.33; but in the slum dis trict canvassed 5.04 per cent of the na tive bora persons are illiterate and 38.86 per cent of the foreign born, the per centage for both being 25.37. In New York the percentage is 1.10 for the en tire native born population and 14.05 for the foreign born, the percentage for both beiug 7.62, while for the slum pop ulation, the per centage of native born who are illerates is 7.0 a id of foreign born 57.69, the percentage for both be ing 47.03. Voters In the city of Baltimore 20.13 per cent of all the voters of the city are foreign born, but in the slum districts canvassed "44.04 per ceut of the voters are foreign born. The variation in Chi cago is not so great, the foreign born voters of the whole city being z0.&2 per cent, and in the slum district canvassed 61.31. Of the whole numlicrof voters in j Ne w Y'ork City 40.13 per cent are foreign j born, while in the slum district canvassed i 62.44 per cent are foreign born. Iu Phil- i adelphia thu differences" are greater, !9.94 per cent of tue total voters being foreign boru aud 58.97 per cent of the voters in the slum district belonging to j that class. j Health The agents and experts em ployed in this investigation were nearly uiianioi'iui in the opinion they expressed relative to th health of the people of the slum district The statistics drawn from the schedule replies show no greater sickness prevailing in the dis tricts canvassed than ia o.her parts of th city involved, and whde the most wretched conditions were found here and there, the small number of sick people discovered was a surprise to the canvassers. It may be that owing to the time of year (late spring) the peo ple were living with open .windows and thus not subjected to the foul air which might be found in winter. A supple mentary investigation, however, mide in thewinter discloses substantially the same conditions. Persons to each dwelling According to the eleventh census the numbeY of persons to a dwelling in Baltimore was 6.2; in Chicago 8.6 in New Y ork 18.52; in Philadelphia 5.60.

TUa War 1 On. Losdo.v, July 27. A dispatch received here at 11:2J a. m. today from Lloyd's agent at Shanghai, China, contirms the announcement exclusively cabled to the Associated Press on Saturday last that war between China and Japan has been declared. Hugh Mathieson Co., the Chinese government agents iu England, have re ceived a cable message which also con firms the announcement that war has been declared between China and Japan. Mr. Mathieson, when questioned on the subject today by a repreaentative of the Associated Press, said that he ex pected that the war.at the outset, would be favorable to Japan, but eventually China must and will crush Japan. "Japan is absolutely unable to pour out such a torrent of men and material as China, .which' country can carry o the war for many years, if uecessary, and always with lresii troops," said Mr. Math ieson. 'China, of recenfyears, has purchased large quantities of munitions of war and is not so far behind in this respect as is generally believed." Will Opan Up China. The manager of the Hong Kong and Shanghai bank said: "One of the results of the war will be to put the great trade in the hands of England and Europe to the disadvantage of China and Japan. But the end of the war will be the mak-, ing of China everywhere and the open ing of China for all time to western civ ilization and trade. 'China will realize fhro'ugh this war her graat and undeveloped strength." The first overact of war occurred on Tuesday last The Japanese fired upon the junk steamship Kow Sliunp, Pedong ing to Mathieson of London, which had been chartered .by the ChineSe govern ment to convey troops to Corea.. Full details of this eagage"m,ent are not yet obtainable, as the Tact3 are care fully withheld froni the public More Gun Firlnjr. Yokohama, July 27. Cable commu nication between Japan and.

Chief Armitroit lasists the Taraney Oatgagre Was Dm to Th.m. Denver, Col., July 27. In spite of Sheriff Bower's denials and protestations Chief of Police Armstrong insists that he has proof that the plot against Adjutant General Tatsney was hatched among the deputies and ex-deputies of El Paso county, which he will make public at the right time. John E. Regan, one of the first men arrested, hs been released, but his brother William who was turn key in the El Paso jail, where it is claimed the details of "the plot were ar ranged, is still in custody.

(Tatted Stn.ro Soldier Respond to Call of an Ordinary City Marshal. Las- Ve.8, N. M., July 27. Two Mexicans dead, aeveral .others wounded and two Americans in custody of the United States troops stationed at this place is the result of what might have been a much bloodier riot, but for the presence of mind the city marshal showed in calling out the troops so promptly.' The occurrence is the out come of the lynching which took place here about four months ago and which the officers have since been trying to clear "Up. Some Jime ago the sheriff obtained in formation which intended to show that one of the lynching party was Jose U1 legoa, a noted outlaw, and a Warrant for his arrest was pieced in the hands of William Green of Old Las Vegas. Green was accompanied by a Mexican and on Wednesday evening the two men came upon Gallegos in a secluded Bpot Gaiiegos took refuge behind a large tree and drew his weapon in defense, but on account of the trigger catching he was too late in getting the "drop" on Green, who fired upon him, wounding him so badly that his death ensued yesterday afternoon. This incident aroused the Mexican people of the old town for revenge and last night several of them, armed with a warrant, entered Green's house on Bridge street, and were met by Eli Green, a brother of the party they were seeking. While he was parleying with the oilicera his brother entered and was immediately fired upon by one of the belligerent par ties. This was the signal for a regular fusil lade, in which Eli and Billy Green pour ed lead from their Winchesters into the crowd with deadly effect When the crowd retreated, it was found that Juan Sendoval was dead aud several escaped with wounds of a serious nature. The sheriff then made his Appearance and demanded that the Green boys sur render, which they refused to do, fear ing of foul play at the hands of the Mex ican. City Marshal Clay commanded the use of the telephone to call on the Uuited States troops stationed at East Las Vegas aud the call was responded to on double quick by Lieutenant Crawford and a de tachment of the tenth infantry. XV ith fixed bayonets the quickly sur rounded the besieged, house aud after a spirited consultation with the Greens, now heavily armed, the s-greerueut was arrived to taks the Green brothers to military quarters uutil safety could be assured. They are. now being closely and heavily guarded and the governor has been telegraphed for. .While this disturbance was going on the Mexicans secured the Mexican who was with Green when the shooting of Gallegos was done and dragged him to jail in the old town. The commanding isfTicer demanded the possession of him also, but was refused by the sheriff and his posse, at which Lieu tenant Crawford told them ho would hold the sheriff personally responsible for the safety and delivery of the Mexican to him in the morning. Excitement is at fever heat, and it is not improbable that a lynching or other violent outbreaks may occur. EARLY NEXT WEEK The So-called Arbitration Commit tne Will Regin IsTMtis.tiag the Strike. Washington, July 27. Labor Com missioner Wright, the chairman of the arbitration commission, appoiuted by the president to investigate the causes of the recent railroad strike, expects to issue a call today for a' meeting of the commission. He has communicated with Messrs. Kernan and W;orthington with a view to learning their wishes respecting a place for meet tng. The meeting will be held in this city on Monday at 10 a. in. FUNST0NS CONTEST. He Is to Ke Made to Walk tha flank at Once. Washington, July 27. Congressman Funston is expected back from Kansas tomorrow. It is probable that the com mittee on elections will insist on cutting off his head early next week. Col. Moore and the Kansas Democrats are pressing for a speedy disposition of the case. They only consented to delay because df a death in Mr. Funstou's family. One reason why CoL Moore and his friends have become so importunate is that the prospects are now more favorable for prompt action on the tariff, and they are terribly afraid congress may adjourn suddenly, leaving the. contest huug up until December. They will, therefore, take no chances, but will try to forue Mr. Funston to the block, on Tuesday or Wednesday next week. IT SERVES BAD WATER, Which May Be Considered a Keason For fnt Collecting Rents. Dr. EH Swartz, member of the state board of health, who resides at Kansas City, Kansaa, called on-Attorney General Little this afternoon to inquire if the water company of Kansas City, Kansas, could be enjoined from the collection of its water rents.

The attorney gen eral said he would look up the matter. A Plot Acainat President Hereiai. New York, July 27.

STANDS BYTHE TRUST The Senate Refuses, to Recede From Its Position. The Tax on Surar Remains in Its Bill. NO INSTRUCTIONS; Bill Goes Back to the Conference Committee Unaltered. Motion to Recede From Sujjar Tax Lost by a Tie. Washington, July 27. The indica tions when the senate met at noon today were that the struggle over the resolu tion to agree to the further conference on the tariff bill asked by the house would be ended before adjournment At 12:05 o'clock the report of the con ference on the tariff bill was called up by Senator Janes of Arkansas. The pending question was the decision of the chair on tne points of order raised by Messrs. Gray and Mills "against Mr. Washburn's motion to instruct the senate conferrees to recede from the one-eighth of one cent differential on sugar above 16 Dutch standard. Mr. Mjinderson was immediately rec ognized and proceeded to argue against the point of order upon which so much seemed hinged. He maintained with vigor that it was competent for the sen ate to instruct its conferrees. Mr. Mandersou described at length the methods of conferences between the two houses in parliament and in congress, drawing a distinction between "a simple" conference und "full and free conter euce. In the house, he declared, it had even been disputed that the house could in struct its conferrees. Certainly it could not be coutended that the senate had no power nor control over its conferrees. How could any committee of the senate be superior and above the senate which created it. There was more involved in this than a simple question. Iu it was involved the rights of the.ugar trust, which were so eloquently declaimed against by Mr. Vilas. It was said inside and outside of the chamber that the trust was so pow erful that it could defeat any bill that did noi give it what it wanted. He ap prehended that this was true, for no mat ter how close the senate came to striking at the differential, a vote was always forthcoming at the last moment to save it The ruling in this point of order would determine whether the senate should have the right to pass upon thin odious differential, the striking out of which meant the defeat of the whole bill. Mr. Mauderson then reviewed the pre cedents bearing on the point of order, citing numerous cases in the house where the conferrees bed been instructed. Senator Harris in the chair, sustained the point of order against Washburn's motion. An appeal was then taken from the decision of the chair by Mr. 'Washburn. A motion was made to lay the uppeal o'n the table. It was a tie, 32 32, and was lost. 1 he negative vote consisted of H Re publicans and Messrs. Hill, Democrat, Allen, Kyle and Poffer, Populists. Mr. Stewart did not vote. Those voting in the affirmative were ull Democrats. The vote recurred on Mr. Washburn's appeal from the decision of the' chair and. resulted: Yeas 32; nays 32. The senate having failed to sustain the chair, the vote recurred on the mo tion of Mr. Washburn to instruct the conferrees to recede from the one-eighth differential on refined sugar. The vote resulted: Y'eas 32; nays 32. Motion not agreed to. The bill was then sent to conference without instructions and without division of the senate, no vote being taken on the motion to send the bill back to confer ence. WON'T COME TO TRIAL. Thts Is What Glsh Sjr of the uo War ranto Case. Captain P. N. Gish said today concern ing the charge of his taking money from the liquor club men: "It is all a lie. I do not know this man McWilliama and have never seen him to my knowledge. It seems strange to me that a man should' make such a lying affidavit about a perfect stranger. I am free to say that I believe there is something back of it. Harry Safford is trying to carry water on both shoulders; that is what is the matter with him. I went to him at one time and he agreed to co-operate with the police to run every club man out of town, and I was to notify them that they had to close up. I did this, and the very next day Salford denied that he had made any such contract with me. I in tend to let the people know what Saf ford's record is in this club business be foroelection this fall. "I can tell you another thiing, and that is that this thing will never come to triaL Safford don't want it ta He will have it drag aloDg sin the court until after election, for .it ia only done for political effect If the case would come to trial 1 would summon every man who has ever had anything to do with a club to testify. Y'ou can de pend up it that it will never come to trial." 3100NSI1INERS IN GOTHAM. An Illicit fctill Makes .l.SOQ Gallons of Whisky a Iy. New YORK,July 27.

STATE JOURNAL. FRIDAY, JULY 27, 1894. CAN'T DO A TH1IIG. Democrats Can't Even Carry Out Tlieir Own Caucus Program. There is Trouble Over the -ilo-titt&i of Vilas. IT IS W 1 TUD SAWN, knd Then it is Renewed by Senator Washburn. WaiitwotoS, JuW 27. Republican tactics prevented the Democrats of the senate frm patting1 into effect yesterday th projram arranged in caucus Wednesday They did not 1 succeed in g-etUng- the bill back into conference as they had hoped to do, j but they cleared the way as far as 1 they were able to d bo, having Sena- J tors Vilas and Calf ary withdraw their motions -for the instruction of the con- ferrees and by voticg down II ill's mo- i lions. with the aid of the Republicans, j But for the fact that the Republican side of the chamber took up Mr. Vilas' idea, the bill would have been re- ferred bck before the close of the day's session. The Democrats are not so much worried over the motion put by Sen- j ator Washburn to instruct the senate conferees to recede from the portion of the sugar amend ment providing for a differential duty of one-eighth of a cent on refined scgar. as they were over the resolution to the same elt'ect offered a few days since bv Senator Vilas. Having secured Mr. Vilas pledge to stand with them to return the bdi o conference, which coes far enough to secure his vote against the j pending motion, notwithstanding it is the same in effect that he has been defending with such vigor, they feel that that breach is healed P.nd count upon a full Democratic vote with two exceptions, against the motion. These exceptions are Senators O ill and lrby. Senator Irby has gone away from the city, but before going he left authority with Senator Hill to i pair him for the Washburn motion and against sustaining the chair on a j decision favorable to Senator Gray's point of order against the motion. The Republicans also claim that be- iides securing thea two Democratic i votes, either on the motion direct or against a decision of the chair, they will have the full sipport of their own party and also the votes of Senators Allen, Kyle and I'effer, Populist. The only doubtful vote, they claim, is that of Senator Stewart, whose vote, i they believe, if given for the motion j would cause it to carry. j The Democrats w hile not admitting j all that the Republicans claim, are j giving the question of keeping their forces in line the most careful atten- tiou. If one-eighth differential should j be stricken out the elt'ect would be I very demoralizing, and the experi- mcnt is one which they will go to any legitimate length to avoid at thisj juncture. J Senators Allen and Kyle have ex- j tended their demand upon the bounty to the extent of asking that it be con- tinued for live years. This provision would, they say, make the bill far more acceptable to them. j The Republicans profess to have no desire to produce delay by their de late of Senat jr Ciniy's point of order, but they say they only want a fair opportunity to present their views upon it. This they have siown a determina tion to have. When the Democrats showed a disposit.oa to prolong the session until the matter should be disposed of, Sent tor Quay laid a mountainous instalment of his classic speech on his desk. The movement Lad the desired oilect and adjourn ment cam'j earlier than usual. Re publican leaders express thj opinion that a vote will be reached to day. They are conduct ng a very careful campaign. Democrats, while public ly expressing coo.Sdeo.ce, privately ad mit that the situation is precarious, and it is very evident from their man ner that they will be glad to have the crisis passed. BESSINCTOX (iBDKREO HOME. Itae Teasel Kctarai ca Account of Slck- nrii Antony the Crew. Washington, July 27. The reason for the rather unexpected order for the return of the Bennington is the bad state of health of the officers and crew. The isthmian fever has ap peared on board, and suddenly began to spread in an alarming fashion. The burgeon of the ship contracted the disease and it was necessary to employ a local physician to attend the sick. At present nine men are ill, and it was felt to be an unwarranted ex posure of the health and lives of the chip's company to keep the vessel longer in tucti an unhealthy port as La Libertad at th.s season. It is positively stated here the movement of the vessel does not in any way affect the status of the refu gees aboard the vessel, and that mat ter will be adjusted hereafter on its merits. Unless a determination is reached by the dtte of arrival of the liennington at Saa Francisco the refu gees will not be permitted to land. Dr. Guzman has received his creden tials as Salvadorean minister and is a daily caller at the state department, prepared to present and push his ap plication for Lzeca's extradition, but lie has not been presented to the president in his new capacity, nor has he been recognized. To do this would be to recognize the Salvadorean pro visional governrrent, from whom he received his credentials, and this can not be done until a favorable report I is received from United States Com- roissjoner Baker, who is said to be ill I in .Nicaragua. E-t-Governor James Campbell, of Ohla, is here as counsel for Ezeta when his case comes up. CO.VEY CFISAOE ENDS. Those at Washington Begscine; for As sistance to iet Bsck Home. Washington, July 27. Large and indignant delegations from the in dustrial armies encamped about Wash ington applied ut the room of the hcmss committee on labor yesterday, not to urge their bills, "but to plead for assistance. The expectai has happened; their leaders had deserted I'uem and they sought cong re.ssior.al aid to return to the localities whence they had come. Coxey"s men Raid their leader had left thera In the lurch yesterday. Kel lev's men averred their leader had drifted away several cars ago End that they did not expect to tee him again, while F rye's men a'd their leader had probably abandoned them. The men who were brought from the Pacific coast by Kelley were particu larly indignant and expressed a fervid desire to tar and feather their pen eraL Mr. McGann told thera that there was not the slightest chance of a government appropriation for their return and sent them to tha local superintendent of charities.

The sub committee of the committee on em migration, which had charge of Rep resentative Lockwood's bill to protect American labor on the borders, re ported it favorably to the full com mittee with several changes. The bill forbids the employment in tiie United States of persons who retain foreign residences, and is. aimed against Canadians and Mexicans who come across the borders to work, articular- the sailors on the Great akes, and imposes heavy penalties upon their employers.

POPS AT KANSAS CITY. Governor Lewellinsr Taks Part in Willurd's notification. LEAVE.N'TOhii, Kan., July 27. Democrats of Kaaias opened their state campaign here last night. The initial meeting was. called to order by J. R. Garrett, chairman of the county central committee, introducing as the chairman of the evening Martin Smith. The latter introduced Hon. David Overmver. Mr. Overmyer said that it afforded him pleasure to open the campaign in Leavenworth, the old reliable, in vincible fortress of Democracy, lie thought the time in which we live are too serious in order to be entertaining, or amusing. He was here as a citizen of Kansas to meet hia fellow citizens, who are moved by fear, hope and expectation that move him. He was here as a representative of the great political party of the country, that come into being with the constitu tion, which has stood ever since and will never fall until the constitution falls. Its longevity, he said, is due to the fact that it stands by the constitu tion. He then briefly referred to present condition of affairs in the nation, placing the responsibility upon the Republican party. He touched upon the money ques tion, and the state control of enter prises. He wanted to know' how many members are sent to the legis lature who know anything about laws and society. Le welling, he said, be lieved in people buying the railroads, but didn't say how they should get them. Mr. Overmyer thought if he and his state officers would return their passes and pay as he (Overmyer) does there would be more equity, and the railroads would have a better chance to live. Coming down to the issue in the state, he said that the Democratic party of Kansas demands a repeal of the prohitritory amendment and all the infamous laws on the statute books passed in pursuance thereof. Mr. Overmyer said Kansas first suf fered from an invasion of missionary talent, and the people were induced to vote for the amendment which was adopted by a curious' provision in the constitution. No sooner had this been inserted in the constitution than a series of laws followed and more tyrannical than the other. These laws deprived the people of self-government. He referred to the jury commissioner law, the right of county attorneys to summon the citizen to his office and examine him; upon fail ure to answer to be held in contempt of the police commissioner law. His reference to this law brought down the house. He said if the law was such that it could not be undone, the sights already seen would be nothing to what they would see. Experience was proven that the executive consults his own desires and constructs the boards so that they would be a supple instru ment in his hands. Better sink con stitutional prohibition ten thousand times than yield the sacred right of local self-government- The speaker thought Kansas was the best adver tised state in the union before prohi bition came; the evil fame of Kansas in that respect spread throughout the world. On the subject of woman suffrage, Mr. Overmyer said both Republican and Populist parties have declared for woman suffrage, but the Domocrats say no, this is wrong, unnatural and abomination. llight-m nded women don't want it. The adventuress, bold and brazen women who want it to dis play themselves. There are no neces sary relations between the ballot box and the r ght of power to be taxed. If women demand the ballot it implies we have been unjust to women, and ask if the citizen was prepared to vote himself a monumental scoundrel, because that is what he would be if he has been unjust to woman. He de clared that the present electorate would be unequal suffrage. lion. Joseph G. Lowe followed Mr. Overmyer's speech with a closing ad dress. Candidate for Congress in the First District Henry C. Solomon of Atch ison was among the candidates pres ent. Chairman Richardson and Sec retary Peperell of tha state central committee were here for the initial opening of the campaign. POPULISTS OPES AT AEOE.VTIKE. Governor I e welling; and Major Frank Millard tr the Spaaic r. Kansas City, Mo., July 27. The Populist campaign was opened last night in Kansas City, Kan., by Gover nor L. D. Lewelling and Major Frank A. Willard of Argentine, the Populist nominee for congressman in the Sec ond district. The governor said in part: "This is a time for retrospection. Two years ago the farmers of Kansas raised a large crop and got fair prices for it. To-day many of them are bankrupt. They have been unable to pay trie usurious interest exactec by their creditors, and to-day more than forty three per cent of their farms have passed into the hancs of landlords by the foreclosure of mortgages. All this is wrong. It is to be cnarged to the present linancial condition of the country, and that its turn must be at tributed to the policies of the two old parties. "So long as they are honest, frugal and industrious, the ifovernment should guarantee to subjects the power to eat, drink ana .ciotne in em selves. If some of you are poorly fed and poorly clad it is because some one else has more than his share. I would rather be without civ lization than be the subject of a government that could not g-uarantee to its citizens equal rights to all and special privi leges to none. That may be anarchy. tmt If It is, put it In your pipe and amoke it. "Individual rights have been lost sight of .in property rights. Men ought rise above the old law of the survival of the strongest. The aver age increase of wealth in the United States is less than 3 per cent annually. Less than 3 per cent, and yet the farmers of Kansas are paying 6, 8, 10 and 12 per cent interest. Where are they coming to?" Governor Lewelling held the view that the Populist party was the only one for the laborer asd poor man. He went on to deprecate the contraction of tne currency and attributed it to hoarding in banks and other places. The Postal Savings bank would pre vent this by guaranteeing to the de positor absolute security, and thus put ao end to all lack of confidence, lie wanted silver money, not because it was better than any other, but be cause it would give employment to thousands of idle men in the silver mines. Mayor Willard and George B. East wood also spoke. YTIsoonnIn Republican N'omlnee. Milwaukee, Wis., July 27. Major W. H. Upham of Wood county was nom inated for governor, yesterday, by the Republican state convention, on the first ballot of the day and the sev enth of the convention. Judge Emile liaensch, of Manitowoc county, was nominated for lieutenant governor on the second formal ballot. It. M. Emerjr Nominated. Hiawatha, Kan., July 27. R. M. Emery of Seneca, was nominated for judge of the Twenty-second judicial district by the Republican convention, which mat here yesterday. Mr. Emery has been county attorney of Nemaha county three terms and was fetate senator from to 1S92. CROPS AUK SLPFEKIXG. XI ot Winds rol ii i Great Dima;s la Kansas and Nebraska. Omaha. Neb., July 27. An un precedented hot wind is blowing over Nebraska from the south and is doing irreparable damage to corn. The wind feels as though it came from a furnace, and it is blasting the corn aa effectualy as a prairie fire. Emporia, Kan,, July 27. Many farmers in this vicinity report ttieir entire corn crop as utterly destroyed by drouth and that all the rain in the world could not now save it. For just thirty days not a shower has fallen here and no prospects of one, although the rain makers have been experimenting for several days a few miles west of here. Abilene, Kan., July 27. Rock Island 'rainmakers, after a week's work in this country entirely without result, left for Iowa. Hot winds have blown for three days and but little corn can be saved, even by abundant rains. Mexico, Mo., July 27. The corn crop is seriously threatened in this part of the state. It is at a critical point, and is already injured consider ably on account of the drouth. At several prayer meetings held in Mexico last night fervent prayers were offered for rain. The farmers, like town people, are rather low spir ited at the prospect in general. To Settle Grand Army Rates. Chicago, July 27. Chairman Cald well, of the Western Passenger asso ciation, has called a special meeting of the association for to-morrow to consider the question of Grand Army rates. The Atchison has issued no tice that it will extend the return limits on tickets to any date within the hnal date set by the association. The Atchison has let down the bars as to the return limits, and the asso ciation lines will be obliged to take similar action or lose the greater part of the business. The meeting will also take up several matters of a routine nature. Hebs Talks of New Labor Cnlonr. Chicago, July 27.

STATE JOURNAL, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 27 1894. CAH'T GETJVER IT. Senators Still Talking About the President's Letter. Some Call it "a Dissrustinsr Piece of Egotism." THEY II AYE DONE MUCH So Thinks the House, Differing Thus From the Country. Washington. July 27. special." If the oldest and wisest members of both houses are giving their real opinions and if they stay of the same mind, then the verdict of history as to the president's re cent remarkable irformancea ia already liiade up. Rash, ill advls-ed and uncalled for." 'A disgusting piece of egotism." "A proas violat.cn of the spirit of the constitution. "If Andrew Jor nson had written such a letter In addition to his other offenses, he would never have pot the seven Republic an votes that saved him." STtie Criticism. Such are a few of the expressions from Usually cautious congressmen. The most emphatic criticisms are always accom panied with a statement tliat they must not l)o published, r.o matter whether the name is given or not. Among journalists the crici isms arc severe, even to the point of cruelty. One went so fal as to send a very elaborate dispatch to h'' papers that Mr. Cleveland wan unquesti- fubly insane, and that s;;ch rr;.s the judrmentof well pouted n-.cn here, but tho managing editor was too I'autious to publish it. When the storm fir5t broko forth, it was naturally supposod that iH fury would Boon abate, but so far it would seem that tho critics, by freeing their minds, have only excited each other to greater heat. In the house the president has of course many defenders, but the morn judicious shake th-!r heads, and somo say it reminds them of the time when Johnson made that famous i-peeeh to the Washington rabble. In which he (lo:nunced Sumner, Stevens and others by name. It is too soon, of course, to mats up the verd:-;t on the ac tion of Chairmt.n Wilson in bavins the letter read in the house, but it is signifi cant that many cf his warmest supporters begin their com nents by saying that he was distracted by his neuralgia and end with the remark, "I rather wish he hadn't done it." Much En sines II a Fir-n Done. Tho laugh is on those members who went home recently declaring that they would nGt return, as tho session would end in a few d.;ys anyhow end nothing but rou'ino business bo done. It is a fact that an immense amount cf routine busi ness has been dorse by the house, and a mere lit of titles f tha measures passed upon would nit.ko near a column. At least hu'f of th -e were purely private bills and nearly all t i others of merely local importance. On tho great day in tho sen ate when floor and galleries were literally packed and when old statesmen spoke their minds witli a freedom unknown for many a year thera Ftre by actual count but 43 members left in tha house, yet the point as to a quorum was not raised, and all kinds of bias went through with a rush. Of course these were bills unani mously reported by committees on which there was no opposition, and there was no attempt to take snap judgment on tho ab sent. In the house those who indorse and thoo who crUiciro the president are equal ly emphatic in declaring their intention to hold cut, althov.gh re quests for speedy ac tion arc pouring in once mora in a big vol ume. "'It is al. 1 alderdash," said an In diana member, showing me a petition ho had received, "to talk about business wait ing, as anybody cm see who will consider how fjw are affected. All the farmers and planter, even tho sugar makers, all the gardeners and fruitgrowers, are at work, as usual at th s s-iison, and that's more than half of the laboring chtsises. All the professional men, officials and those in do-mestk- s-rvic;? ere at work, and all those regularly engaged in trade and transporta tieia. Every 1 nr.di of the building trades is just ai it wculd bo anyhow, and so are all those manufacturers not mentioned in any tariff, and they are a good deal more thau half. In thort, when you stew it down, only i per cent of tho lator of this country could le aUrctid in any event by this tariff. Sentiment has some effect, of course, but tho idea that millions are wait leg on us is all bosh. I'm for sticking it out to March 4." An In rvae of Coxeyites. One of the symptoms of Washington life when there is unusual excitement is tho thronged condition of public resorts, and for a few evenings after the presi dent's 1-tter was given out they were crowded us they have not been for many a year, and tha controversy was loud and long. A surp-islng feature of the times is that the Co.tey ites, or industrials, as they call then sclve, because they do not work, contiuu-s to increase ia this vicin ity. This is contrary to what all our local officials prophesied and to what might reasonably have liean expected. The po lice authorise told ua early in May that, according to their map of the inarching todies and the difficulties in their way, not another one would reach here, or if they did they would soon starve out. Just the same they hat kept coming till in their three camps, the largest of which is on thp Virginia side of the river, they number nearly or quits u thousand. Their condi tion ;rows steadily worse, and they an in a fair way to ccoi.ie an intolerable nui sance. Several have been arrested for beg ging in the city limits, and they have re cently done math marauding on the neigh boring farmei-a. It i certainly a curious phase of this curious time. A Stifrar Compromise. The senate committal for investigating the Sugar trust and the alleged dealings o; senators in si gar stock continues to meet occasionally nd take tho evidence of sotn1 broker that Vjis cr that senator has never dealt with bi n. but as to any great inter est in it it is a back number. We are also assured that the district court will certain ly do sonirthiBg with tho obstinate wit nesses, but as to when and what it is go ing to bo no fellow can find out. Repre sentative Roljcitson of Louisiana has pre pared a comrrcmiso on the sugar question which he thi.iks will reconcile senate and house if ho can get it to a vote. He pro poses a uniform duty of 45 per cent and one-tenth of a cent per pound extra on sugar coming from countries which pay an export bojnty. lie also proposes that tho producers of sugar in the United ta; shall receive iiine-tentha of a cent per pound bounty on all their s l gar above it'J degrees by the polariscope, siiid bounty to cease June 30, IS )o. There is to be no differential duty for the refiners. Ha waiian treaty of Jn. SO, 1870, is to be abrogated at once, lie was one of 17 Dem ocrats in the house who voted against the Wilson bill and promises that fell the sug ar men of both houses would vote for II with his arnern'rnt. NEW ATLANTIC CABLE LAID Is the Lsrgait Acroii til Atl antic, and Laid Ia the Shortest Tim. Heart's Context, X. P., July 27. -The final splice of the Anglo-American Telegraph company's new cable was made today at 11 a. in., Greenwich time, and the laying of the largest cable across the Atlantic was then successfully com pleted. The time taken in laying this cable was the shortest on record. The expedi tion left Heart's Content July 15 in the afternoon and the Irish shore end was laid in less than two days, the total time being inside of two weeks. A noteworthy coincidence is the fact that the final splice was made on the an niversary of the day on whih the first successful cable was landed at Heart's Content in lb66, twenty-eight years ago, and not only on the same date, but on the same dav. jlEN' DISMISSED. Lark of Work Causes Dropping of a Cam ber of Shop Linpleyei. During the past week in the neigh borhood of twenty men have been dis missed from the bauta Fe boiler shops and round houso It is impossible to as certain the exact number but among them are L. L. liastis, Isaac lute, Tom (Swain, Jesse Coop er, Pat Todd, Jim Doaden and Will Grant These men were "laid off." but were given their time and some of them have been paid up to date. The general supposition is that the layoff is caused ty a lack of work. Wm. Ramsey, W. W.Scritchfield, Robert Doyle and several others were called to work Wednesday morning but when they appeared were told that there was no work for them. THINK HE SET THE FIRE. Inventor of a Gaiolina Motor Believed to he the Cause of the AV m li 1 1. 1; t n ire. Washington, July 2T. The police have arrested W. T. Harris, an inventor of a gasoline motor, on suspicion of having set the Knox building tire, in which three firemen lost their lives and over a half million dollars worth of property was destroyed. The motor is intended for street car use and the police believe that Harris, while experimeating with it, caused an explosion, which resulted in the tire. Harris denies that he is responai ble for the explosion, but admits that he was in the building at the time of the fire. He says there was an explosion and that he was burned, but he left the building to go to a doctor's while the watchman ran to turn in an alarm. IN SOUTHEAST KANSAS. Worms and Hot Weather Are Uestroy Ins; the Corn Crop. Pittsburg, Kan., July 27. The hot winds and drouth are injuring all kinds of crops.

BLACK LABOR SECUJ1ED To Take the Place of Union Miners In Washington slate. Tacoma, Wash., July 27. A train load, bearing six hundred negro coal miners, bound for the Roslyn mines, is expected to arrive here in a week or tea days. In May 6J0 white miners at the Roslyn. mines, which are owned by the Northern Pacific, refused to accept a reduction of about 2 J per cent in wages, and quit. The company did not make any effort to reopen until two weeks ago when" it gave tne miners until last Saturday night to sign the contracts at the new schedule of prices. The white miners still refused though B0 or 40 of the negro miners brought from the south at the time of the trouble in 1S89 are willing to work. Assistant Superintendent Little says negroes will be brought out to take the miners' places, but refuses to state from what point they will come.

In spite of the fact that Liverpool cables quoted wheat de moralized and one penny lower, the mar ket opeued firm and higher in sympathy with the strength in corn ia the belief that the high prices for the latter cereal will tend to increase the consumption of wheat. The news of the declaration of war between China and Japan also had a s'rengtheniug effect. September open ed J4C higher, atOic, eased off to 52c on salos by a number of small brokers, then fluctuated between that figure and the opening price.

Corn opened at 4;i?8c and fluctuated between 4i!t4c and 4bc. May opened 3ic sc higher at 41Jg42c, and sales be tween 41542c, with a tendency up ward.

'ivansas -is too much for us," remark ed Mr. Hutchinson cf the Sjlomon divis ion this morning. 'Hot winds and 100 ia the shade is a pretty hard combination to beat." The visit of the rainmakers to the county has been a dismal aud unrelieved failure but it was perhaps worth the $.i00 it cost Solomon to have the experiment made. DID IT JlI t O It PCX.

In the morning his watch was found on the porch fastened to u piece of paper upon which was written: "I don't want watches; I did this just for fun." There is little doubt but that the act was done by some local thief who did not want to risk disposing of the watch and concluded to play "fuuny" after he failed to find any cash. LA I!

A Case of Theft and One of Assault Be fore the Pollc. Court. Otis Hungate, the city attorney's assist ant, was abseut from his duties this morning and Attorney Tillotson attended to the city's side of the police court dab ble this morning. The dabble wasn't a big one. Wm. Merritt, who had become too fa miliar with his late employer's harness; was the first culprit called. Arthur Mur phy was the complaining witness. Wil liam had been discharged and soon after the harness was missing. He was ar rested by Sergeant Steele while he was hiding hi sin from the police and try ing to hide it from the Lord at a Sunday school picnic at Garfield park. William very wisely pleaded guilty when he found himself before the dig nity of the court this morning and was fined $15, which he could not pay, being "broke," and for the next fifteen days he will put in the time reducing rock to tho same condition. The next was the kindergarten class,the result of a neighborhood row. Johnny and Davie Zimmerman were accused with having disturbed the peace of Nellie and Eddie Rook, and were there with the parents of all parties concerned to tell the judge about it. It was simply a chil dren's quarrel, and after Police Judge Ensminger had given mem tne custo mary fatherly lecture he let them go. Mrs. Zimmerman, who had evidently been burning the midnight oil to get her story ready, made a frantic effort to dis charge it, but the judge was too busy to listen to it Bargains this week at Furman'a shoe sale.

"I hev the honor to le that bumblt worm of the dust," sez I, eizin him up at a claim jumper and a bad man. How long will it take ye to bid good by to that dugout and vanish from thii locality?" "Fur why?" "B?kase this yero claim suits me, and I'm goin to jump it." 'Hain't you no feclin'afor an orphan?" sez I as I reached down and pulled up my ole shotgun. 'Nary one, and I'll gin ye jest five min its to spread yer wings and fiy," he ten derly replies.

I was gittin ready to go over anil see if it was a cose of suicide when up cams a fel ler on a white hoss and looks all around and peacefully sez: "Stranger, mebbe ye've seen my brother Tom a-passin this yere way on a xnewl?' 4 "Mebbe I hev," sez I.

A lectio ways off lay the chap who had so lately bid me a fond adew, and I sez to the feller with me: Vas the late lamented yer only brother In the world?" "My only one!" he sadly replies.

Weather forecast: A low pressure area covers the upper Mississippi valley acd lower Missouri valley, except a few thundar showers in northern Minnesota, u pper .M iehigan and the Dakota it has developed no precipi tation, but has resulted in a remarkable manifestation of heat, the temperatures varying from 100 to l'8 decrees in Kan sas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Iowa, southern and extreme western W isconsm auil Illinois. The tenter of greatest heat is this morning resting over Iowa, Wisconsin and northern Illinois. In Montana, Wyoming and the Dakotas, the hot wave is breaking and the tempera ture is about 10 degrees cooler than yes terday. Southwest winds ara probable today and tonight in northern Illinois which will result in probably the hottest day of the season today and tonight It is probable that relief will not come be lore Saturday or Saturday evening, when thunder showers are probable. The police are called Metropolitan be cause they do just like they do in big cities like New York. The Populist police of Topeka are the latest branch of that party to be found out in tho corruption. Next. There is only one reason for believing that Vilas is not Cleveland's valet, and that is that no man is a hero to his valet Senator Ilu.r. has not yet been ten dered any office of hanor or emolument for his vigorous deferse of the president Judging from Mr. McDonald's exper ience at Leavenworth it isn't safe to crit icise the Populist administration unless you have your eun w.th you. New York may De older and hare more population, but tlie police haven't any advantage- over Topeka's when it comes to their blackmailing business. The anti-anarchist bill that has just passed one of the French chambers is to that country what an anti-immigration bill would be to the United State. It is hard to tell winch is more repre hensible, the unblushing treason to prin ciple of men like Gorman or the obse quious adulation of Cleveland on the part of Vilas. The country has beeu blighted enough by Democracy without the hot winds coming on. Hut if th3 winds will kindly etay oil until the crops are made it may be able to recover froia Democracy in time. Democrats who aspire to missions abroad or other desirable appointive posi tions should not neglect the excellent op portunity now offerel of defending the president. Verily thy shall have their reward. If the recall of the Japanese minister was not because the Japanese govern ment considered It had received an af front, it is due rather to the charitable cess of Japan than to any good sense of Gresham. WnE?f jointists are asked to contribute to the Populist campaign fund it would hardly be without the promise of protec tion. This is not a now way of raising money for political purposes, but it is a novelty in reform.

The governor appoints ths boards, the boards appoint such officials and the people elect the governor. There's a suggestion to voters in this. The first suit for damages against the city of Chicago on account of the strike has been brought for $3 as a test case. This modest amount, however, is hardly calculated to raise any great hopes. Pittsburg has only la'.ely recovered from the strike of 1S77.

Parson Ooodfrleni' Wrestle With and Tri umph Over Satan and Sunday Sap. She was from the country, but she didn't intend to take back water ou anything ou that account if she could help it Piety was the subject of discus eiou, and Sister Jane, who lived in a town that made some pretensions to be ing considered a city, had been expatiat ing on the immaculate righteousness of Parson Jenkins. Sister Melindi bided her time until her innings catuo round, and then she took the fior. "I don't mind allowiu, "she said, "that Parson Jenkins is a powerful re ligious man, but when it comes to downright wrestlin with sat;ui an re sistin his wiles an temptations, why, I Stan right tip in meetin an say that our Parson Cioodfriend can't be beat ty no man. He don't run a soup kitchen, 'cus we don't have no use for such things clown our way, an ho don't g-o slummin, 'cur wo ain't got no slmiw, but he's always ready for a tns-ile with the adversary, no matter Low many snares an pitfalls he seta for his four. You know, he keeps a maple grove onto hi little place, an he sets a powerful store by 'em. Well, it hadn't bien very good sugarin weather at tho time I'm gpeakin of it. It had been freezin con siderable nighttimes, but it hadn't thawed out any daycimes, an the sap hadn't a good chance to run. But Par 8on Goodfriend wnz allers a great han fer takin tiu.o by the forelock, so he got his holes bored, an his spouts druv in, an his buckets set ko as to havs every thing ready to take advantage of the right sort of weather when it came along. Well, ho done that on Wednes day, an them trees of his never dripped a drop on Thursday, nor on Friday, nor on Saturday, but on Sunday the sun shone out powerful warm, r.u every thing was thawin. An' when he went to look at his trees on Monday mornin 'ens, of course, he wouldn't let him self think of them even en Sun lay Le found that his sap troughs and buckets wnz just brimfuL Then what do' you think he done;"' "Why, I suppose he did what any other man would have done, replied Sister Jane. "Ho took tho snp away to make maple sugar out of it. "Yes, that's what Parson Jenkins would 'a' done, no doubt," said Sister Melincla triumphantly, "an it ja.st proves what I'm tellin these facts for there ain't no more pious man livin thrn our Parson Goodfriend. No, he didn't shout for joy an take that sap away, but he just flopped down on his knees right then an there, an he snys it was my own cons'n what heard hhn 'Get theo behind me, satan; you can't tempt mo with any Lord's day sap.'

Th;-i e are 5, 3To pages, each made of a single leaf. Earthenware biuks or tiles with chararrtert? engraved or stanix ed on them were undoubtedly the first books. The first known example of bookbind ing in boards in the modern style was a Latin psalter in the ninth century. Some of the early printed books, in order to imitate manuscripts, had the initials and borders painted by hand. Roman books were often con, posed of a number of pages cf wood strung to gether with a cord passed through a hole in the corner of each block. Parchment was in occasional nso from the earliest times, came into general use about 200 D. C. and continued un til tho invention of printing. All the English kings, from Henry I to Edward VI, took the coronation oath on a manuscript copy of the four evan gelists bound in oak boards an inch, thick. This book was made in 1100. Book sewing machines, to do the work of fastening together the sheets of which a book is composed, were introduced in 1872. Before that time all books were sewed by hand. The book sewing ma chine reduced the cost about one-half. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. PERSONAL GOSSIP.

Webb Harris,druggisti, Bennett's Flats IZi calU up tLa Paerio&a CURE FOR OBESITY. Practiced on a French Farmer 31 ach A;alnt ITU Will. M. de la Xleynie, traveling one day incognito, met a man of enormous obesity at the inn where they change the horses on the road to Paris. lie was a farmer and he had with him two letters of recommendation from the governor of his province one to the king's physician and the ether to a celebrated lawyer. When they ar rived in Paris, La Eeypie took the man to his own hotel, and assured him that he was in a position to help him in his quest. He at once led him to a dungeon where there were a jug of water and a piece of bread sus pended by a string from the ceiling, llage, screams, and cries of the de spairing prisoner were in vain. lathe nature of things, the man was presently compelled to attempt to pet the only food he had, and, after numerous jumps an 1 as many tum bles, he succeeded at length in gain ing possession of tha brea.d. After two months of this diet and these gymnastics. La Reynie gave him hi liberty. But his protege, beside him self with rage, threatened to lodge a complaint with tha prefect of police. "Nothing could be more simple," said La Reynie to him; "you are at this very moment before him. But let think u moment. You came to I'ai'is to cure your obesity. You now stand before me as thin and slender as a young man. What have you, there fore, to gain? Besides that, here are documents to show that you have won the lawsuit you cams about and which you told me on the journey you were so anxious to win." Amazed and stupefied, and with his breath taken away, the poor man was only able to stammer: "Oh! monseigneurt" "Depart," said La Reynie to him; "return to the country and propagate my treatment for obesity." j j PROBLEMS IN ANIMAL LIFE, Some of the Unaccountable Things Done by lowli, Beasts and Insect. The greyhound runs by sight only. This is a fact. The carrier pigeon flies his hundreds of miles homeward by eyesight, noting from point to point objects that he has marked. This is only conjecture. The dragon fly, with 12,0 JO lensas in his eye, darts from angle to angle with the rapidity of a flashing sword, and at rapidly darts back, not turning in the air, but with a clash reversing the action of his four wings and instantaneously calculating the distance of the ob jects, or he would dash himalf to pieces. But in what conformation of the eye does this power consist? No cne can answer. Ten thousand mosquitoes dance up and down in the sun, with the minut est interval between them, yet no one knocks another headlong on the grass or breaks a leg or a winjr, long and delicate as thay are. Sudd.-nly a peculiar, high-shouldered, vicious creature, with long and pendant nosi, darts out of the rising and falling cloud and, settling on your cheek, in serts a prisonous sting. What pos tered the little wretch to do this? Dili he smell your blojl while he was dancing? No one knows. A carriage comes suddenly upon some geese in a narrow road and drives straight through tha flock. A goose was never yet fairly run over, nor a duck. They are under the very wheels and hoofs, ani yet they con trive to flap and waddle safely off. Habitually stupid and indolent, they are, nevertheless, equal to any emer gency. WRITTEN IN HALF AN HOUR. The Sweet By-and-Uy" the Work of Bnt a Few Sllnute. Mr. Bennett, a music writer, and Mr. Webster were intimate friends, says Harrison's Magazine. The latter was subject to melancholy. He came in to where his fi-iend Bennett was at business one day in a depression of spirits. "What is the matter now?" said Bennett, noticing his sad countenance. "No matter," said Webster. "It will be right by-and-by." "Yes, that sweet by-and-by," said Bennett. "Would not that sentiment make a good hymn, Webster?" "May be it would," replied Webster, indifferently. Turning to his desk, Bennett wrote the three verses of the hymn and handed them to Webster. When he read them his whole demeanor changed. Stepping to his desk he began to write the notes. Having finished them he requested his violin and played the melody. In a few minutes more he had the four parts of the chorus jottei down. It was not over thirty minutes from the first thought of th? hymn before tha two friends, and tw-o others who had come in the meantime, were singing all the parts tog-ether. A bystander, who had been attracted by the music, and had listened in silence, remarked: "That hymn is immortal." It is now sung in every land under the sun. Hew Dresj on an Old Joke. The filthiness of the printing office towel is traditional, and the joke about the countrv editor who slew his "devil" by striking him a blow with the oflice towel has lost its force. The other day I saw suspended on the wall of a printing office a black object, vhich was labeled: "Armor plate, tested on the Indian Head proving ground and found to be impenetra ble." Upon close inspection the ar ticle was found to be that same old toweL Cats in Devon. In Devon there is a superstition thit if a cat gives birth to an even number of kitcens, the owner will have as many years good luck as there are kittens: but should the kittens be odd in number, then the contrary will be tbn result THE BUSY WAS?. Be Ba Many Trade and Alrrays Works Hard. Wasps act as architects, buildera, carpent?rs and paper-makers. They go abroad into the fields and gardens in search of provisions; with exem plary care for tho public welfare they eat out the sunny side of your peaches and carry away meat from the lamb chops in your larder. Man, baseman, who robs the busy bee of its hard earned honey and slays the gentle calf for the production of veal cutlets, ususally speaks of the socialist in sects as robbers and depredators. But be forgets that the generous and public-spirited wasp does not levy tribute on his apricots for itself alone. It is the commissary of the republic. Each worker hurries back to the nest tlie results of his fruit hunting or his marauding expeditions, and shares them among his fellow subjects with that distributive justice which Aris totle preached and which nobody in our human communities practices. lie carries out the principles of the Fabi an society. Division of labor, I believe, goes a long way in the nest. Some of ths workers seem to be specially em ployed as foragers and soldiers; others appear to be told oft as nurses and guardians, while yet others are en gaged as paper makers and masons. It is even said that these last work by shifts (I know not by what authority) and that they each have a space of about a square inch allotted to them to fill the cells, on which no neighbor ing worker is permitted to encroach with impunity. But these are per haps tt e fictions of imaginative ob servers. At any rata the eight hours act is not yet in operation; wasps work early and late of their own mere notion. GOOD PAY FOR A SMALL JOB. Expert Locksmith Time Is Valuable, as This Manufacturer Learned. Every safe manufacturer has at tached to his force expert locksmiths, whoe duties consist in opening safes which have gotten out of order. Many of the accidents to safes occur from the gross carelessness of their owners and at times the honst safe-crackers enjoy a quiet laugh at the expense of a group of bank officers or the pro prietor of some imp jrtant establish ment. Not long since a large manu facturer telegraphed to a New York faafe-maker, requesting that a man be sent at once to his place of business, a town ubout fifty miles from the city. Upon i reaching his destination the expert, with his kit of tools, repaired to the establish ment, and was informed that the vault, an old-fashioned affair which locked with a key and which con tained the safe and books of the con cern, could not be opened. The man examined the lock and then the key, opened his kit, took out a bit of wire and began to dig a mass of dirt, dust j and lint out of the key. Then he in i serted it in the -lock, while the pro prietor with a sickly smile looked on. "What's your charge?" asked the manufacturer. "Fifty dollars," replied the expert. "Does anyone know you are in town?" "No." ,'Well, then, here's S'0," remarked the manufacturer. "I'll give you S10 extr3 if you'll take the first train back to New York without telling anyone the price I've paid to have a man dig dirt out of a key for me." A Butterfly Story. A cocoon taken into a suburban library some weeks ago gave forth the other du.y an exquisite great butter fly. The delicate-feathered creature was kept in the room a day or two and then in pity set free just at night fall. There were some misgivings lest this should prove oiher than an act of mercy, but all was felt to be well when next morning the butterfly was discovered where it had been placed, but this time in company with a mate. It happened that the temperature indoors and out had been so nearly alike that the butterfly in the library had burst it3 bonds almost at the same moment with the one out side destined to besoms its mate. (he Swlm in Her Sleep. A young woman of Crab Creek, Ore gon, indulges in frequent freaks of somnambulism. One of her recent ex ploits was as follows: She arose from her bed about 3 o'clock in -the morn ing and was seen to approach Crab creek in her night robe. Upon reach ing the stream the young woman waded in for a short distance, as if feeling her way, and swam safely across. Upon reaching the opposite bank she awoke, half frightened to death, dripping wet and shivering from the cold, and made her way to the house of a neighbor, where she was cared for and taken to her home. An Xnjreniorts Machine. Manuel D. de Costa, who resides six miles south of Sacramento on the Riverside road, has built an ingenious machine for irrigating his flower garden and his orange and lemon trees. It consists of a wooden wheel ten feet in diameter and with a rim, or tire, about two feet wide. A dog is placed inside the wheel, which is turned by his weight as ha gallops in treadmill fashion. The revolution of the axle turns a crank which operates the handle of a pump set in a dug well. After half an hour's exercise the dog is taken out and a frebh dog put in for another half hour. Tha Air tort Caostlqaa. Thirty years ago Horace Greeley said to Susan B. Anthony: "The bal lot and the bullet go together. Yon women say you want to vote; are you ready to fight, too?" "Yes, Mr. Greeley," said Miss Anthony, "we are ready to fight at the point of the goose-opjiiLthe way you always have." linn U Lrd IS HEAD OF THE TRIBE.

STATIC JOURNAL. FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 27. 1S9 t. A riUXICIPAL LEAGUE. The Independent Voter tha Ilopa of the City, sat two of list sight's speakers, At the Temper nee Mm Meetlnf Coanty Attorney Siffjrd a 1 City Attorney Tilioton 31 a It c fepeee. The anti-liquor crusaders were out in force at the F.rt Presbyterian church la-it eight notwithstanding the extremely hot weather. Many of tha prayer meetings were dis missed ani the church people showed their appreciation of the work of the crujadi cooiinittse ty attending the meeting. Uqv. ri. B. Allerson of the First Pres byter, an church opened tha meeting with prayer and Cuairman S. li Brad ford of tae cruatda executive commit tee introduced Jud,-e Joaa Guth rie as ehairaaun of the eveniug. Juie Guthrie sail: "Public seutinueut must Ueoiaad thu enforcement of any law or it will nji oe enforced and '.his is p trticiUriy tru of tha proa.oitory lv." lie reminded the auiieuee that there wai a time when Topena hid seventy live saloons and they were ail closed in tea days by officers who were not afraid to do their duty when public sentiment was baexof thetit. Couaty Attorney II. C. Safford was the first speaker introduced by Judge Guth rie sad he was applauded as he stepped to the puljnt, by the peopie who had read ia tue Stats Journal about the move ou tue puaci officers and credited r. Saifjfd With being sincere in his de tire to eu force the law. Mr. SalTrd taid: "Your committee which invited me to couie before this meeting requested that I should tell you what 1 have been d)ing towards tlie en forcemeat of this law against the liquor dealers. In times of war and trouble, it Is uot beat to tell your enemy what you are going to do an i tonight wuile I would like to give you something about uiy plans, I will have to tell you about wjut we have dons and be content with thu;. I want to say first in behalf of the Bher si and myself that we intend to do our duty faiihlully and fearlessly in every particu lar and if you will give us your support every jointist and illegal liquor dealer in the city will be ia the couuty jail ia less than thirty days. 'There are now under arrest, to be tried at the September term of court, twenty-three persons for violation of the prohibitory law. Fifteen of these are ia jail and eij;ht cabers are out on bond. Four suits are pecdiug against owners of property where liquor has beeu sold, and we Lope to get perj etual injunctions against these piaees. Iu addition to this we hxve today co nmenceJ action to re move from their otlices two members of the police force ar.tmst wnoia we have evidence for reee.viug money ia pro tecting the violators of this law, and if you will give us the game support you gave our predecessors ia office, this list of olleaders will be largely increased before the opening of tue September term of court. 'Xovc, in r,ega-d to the drugstores: Jude llazen has j Uit mais a decision to tue ellc-ct that tad prooale jade has absolute discriminating power iu granting liquor permits to druggists. The probate judge can issue and revoke permits at his pleasure. This makes liquor selling by a druggist a privilege and not a rikent." lie v. B L. Smith, of the First Chr is tian church, was then introduced, lie Bald: "We are ia great danger of allow ing our partisanship to interfere with our reforms. If this reform is to be kept up, it must be by the standard demanded by the independent voter of tne city who must stand ready o commend or rebuke tne ollioials eiectel loeuforce these laws against crime aud v.ce. ""I have been very much impressed with the movement inaugurated by tae Indepeudeut voters at Wich.ta. which you have all no doubt read about. I don't know whether I am in order or not aud it doesn't mike any difference. I think the time is ripe for ju.it such a mu nicipal league ia our local politics. It is ail right to have loyalty to. your party leaders and folio v them blindly iu na tional affairs, but in local government we must pick o lr men. Out of this movement 1 hope there will grow a per-? manent party of independent voters, who will org.iti.ze a municipal league. Now, there is something for us to do as good citizen. As president of the Associate 1 Ciiarities 1 have some infor mation vvuieU it is not pleasant to relate. In a house ou Eas: bixtu street there are four Utile children, whom I found o.ily yesterday, w ho hive gone to bed four times witnout their supper all on account of one of theie Tojaka droikinjr clubi." City Attorney D. C. Tiliotson said: "Your goveramen: can't be any better than you are, and JJ ciiances out of 100 it won't be as good. Public sentiment must demand tae enforcement of the laws and stand b.iolt of the otheersor the laws won't Le eaf jrced. There is some thing in this land winch is higher tnan all law and that is public opinion." lie thea urged the tsiipe ranee pejple to back up tue oilice.- iu their eilorts to en futce tae law. Lawyer 11. C Hoot was then intro duced and said: "suiae people believe tins prohibitory lw is uujus. and while we are heretouigLt there are uien in th.s city who honet in tuis be.ief. That is one reason why this law is so bard to enforce. Tiiea tfcere is tne great profit ia the business and we must ail admit that politics cats some figure, for the politician always figures for the riU raif voters. If he is aear decent himself he considers he has your support but he must always figure for the liquor vote." -Mr. Tiilotaou theu spoke about the difficulty of convicting violators of this law who appeal tte;r case to the district court and sa.d: A certain club was pull ed some time ago as you all know and the judge decided that there was no case aeaiust that clua at that time and much of the violation of the law ia the city has since thea been done over the shoul ders of that club. Tha supreme court in the Emporia case almost like the cele brated Topeka cane has decided that such a club is illegal." Kav. Charles M. Saeldoa who is re spons.ble for the organization of the crusade committee was then introduce and was warmly welcomed by the au 1 etice. lie said: M e should not fail u femember that as much evil comes from the drug stores a from the clubs ana. joints. "Smce this movement was organized I Lava received macy piteous letters from women whose husbands are being ruined by these illegal drug store al oous. Thesa letters were written to me ia conflienc but I wish I could read so ne of them to) you. This is a great evil ,nd we ai citi zens and a a committee tauat d) some thing about this. "Aiuiort every day some druggist saya to me that if his permit is taken away it will ruin hi business as a drujgst. Another thing to be considered is tuis: While some of these jo.ctits and club men are in tne county jail their families are suffering, and there is work for us to do in seeing that the innocents di not suffer ou account of the misleeds of the uuabands and fathers. A few days ago I received a letter from Dr. MUuer, of the Armour institute in Chicago, ia which he expressed the wish that the people of K-iusas mitfht this year be loyal to prohibition, and not allow the plau of the l.q or men to be carried out, as it has beeu dine ia Iowa. 'ile says upon what Katsas does de pends the success or lailure of prohibi tion, and as Topeka goes, so goes the state. "i am of the opinion that as Mr. Smith has said, the time is comin .nd is a most iiere when we must depend upon the in dependent voter to take charge of our municipal eleciions if we wa itgojd gov ernment. 1 for one look forward to this time, and I trust it is not far distant when we shall h.ive just such a uoti-partisan municipal league." He then told of the municipal league in Omaha, of which the president is a prominent Republican and the secretary is a prominent Demo crat, yet they belong to the same party in municipal affairs. Riv. ti. B. Alderson then made a few remarks, exj.rfssing his sympathy with the movemeat aud dismissod the meet-inij. THEO. NESKE'S ROMANCE. The I.ittlx Ilampbtric Xnwiboy iou to Oiitui my to VU lit twntaeitrt. Long years ago iu Berlin, that noble city ou the Spree, the very mention of wn.eh ia ail-suftioieut to make the Teu tonic heart throb with pardonable pride, lived llerr Rohlof wuh uis wife and little Pauline, the liifht of his life, next to his grocery store tue dearest thing oa earth to ui.ii. And if she had all his love she deserved n less, for lovable indeed -ere her run iy ways and sunnier ha.r, that dandle 1 iu two yellow braids down the back of aer simple frock, her bright blue eyes, her stune tnaC rivaled day light and her heart of purity. Little Theodore thought so anyway mauy times whea he helped his mother move her spinning wheel into the back yard aud afterwards peeped through the caiuk ia the dividing stone wall aud sup pressed a sigh at sight of his beloved Paulino playing with other girls and strong and healthy boys that he could not meet ou equal ground. For fate, so often unkind, had giveu Theodore a heavy load to carry ou his bclc that the doctors said he would never be rid of. But Theodore's longings were not in Vain. He met Pauline much and her tender child. h heart went out to him as it did not to others. She pitiod him, per haps, but you know what pity is said to be akin to love. Aud ao it came to be. One day as Theodore was approaching manhood his tender affection tor his chiuaood's play mate burst its bound) and P.iuiine put her little lingers in his chubby hand aud wiiispered, i'es.:' "You know we cannot afford to marry now, Pauline. I am too poor. I shall go to America and havm j ma la a fortune bhall come back aLer you. Will you wait for me?" And what could Pauline, loving him, say but yes? Lleveu summers have warmed the waters of the iiaiue since thea and never has love been more steadfast for soloag u time. Pauliue still wa.ts, but her heart is beating laster as the days wer on for her waiting is almost ended. Theodore will be there soon. He has done weil,and his m iny Topeka friends who have known him for the past ten years Will join their hau Is in wish ing him happiness, lie has c-ver been a newsboy, but an industrious one. The pennies have found a -resting place with him, and a statement of his financial con dition would surprise many a more pre tentious man. For years his occasional absence from the Sauta Fe depot platform has created comment, but lew who have looked into uis kindly face have thought that the brain beniad it was eajrerly working out a romance of touching devotion and steadfastness to purpose. The steamer '-Fuerst Bismarck" will leave New York harbor for Europe on August 9th, and not manv days there after Theodore Negate wdl reward his Pauline Rohlof for her waiting, with hi name. In less than four months they will return to Topeka to Lve. THEY HAD NO IIOHE. Two Z.tttla Waif Ctrrd For Today at ttie O jthau' iioiiis.

STATE JUUKNAL, FRIDAY EVENING. JULY 27. 1894. FOR LITTLE FOLKS: A. Family Carrot. There are thoustnds of bicycle riders la Buffalo, fast ricera and fancy men, women who do the:r "century" in a day, and many other vt rietiea of rhtr genua bicyclist. But so far as we are aware there is only one nan in Buffalo or any where else who ha- successfully convert ed his bicycle into a family carriage with comfortable teats for five. That is ZIx. Henry J. vom Scheidt, of whom, rith hi. four beys, We' give portraits herewith as they appear on the wheel. On setting out the wheel is steadied by the father, and Johnny, the youngest, ia lifted into his place; then Arthur ia established in fror.t of him," and Willie climbs into his place in front of all. The father then takes the saddle, and when under slow headway Henry runs after and mounts to his seat behind. In this way the father and four boys have ridden over 00 milea this season, visiting Lancaster, Tonawanda, Belle vnu and other neighboring towns, where, as in Buffalo parks and streets, they are always much ga?ed at and admired. They have never Lad an accident. The frame which provides the extra seats for the children was built by Mr. vom Scheidt himself. It can be taken off in a minuto and a half and placed in three minutes. "Little Dirty race." We have a 15 ttlo maid at home, She says, "My name 13 iJwace. To ra and ma 5-l.e's better known As "Liuiu 1 irty Face." Yon scrub uiid dress that child at ten White musl.n trimmed with lac a In fifteen minutes, often less. She's Little Dirty Face.

Then come ai d give that sweet "bear ha-," Thou little toddling: Grace. Thy so il's as pure as angels robes, .My Litt.c Dirty Face. Boston Transcript. To Make Fall That Bounces. Boys who are always losing their balls can make them themselves. Take a common cork and cut it as round as possible, making it the size of an ordi nary marble. Th-n tear off very narrow strips of rag and wind these, one at a tine, around thu cork until the ball is of the desired siz3. Then cover it with cloth, or if a boy is fortunate enough to havo an obliging sister she will make a cover of crewels by dividing the ball into quarters, wi:iding the wool several times around it, then buttonholing the quarters all round one-half, then tha other half, till an edge is formed on each side of each quarter, then button holing with any colors of wool till the quarters are quito filled up, when a seam finishes then, and a capital ball is the result, costing nothing to make, but really serviceable. j Tlie Prince' Gold Inlaid Cot. England's now baby prince has a gor geous layette. The queen has made a historical additicn to it in the shape of a delicate bassiret covered with rich white satin, having over it a filmy veil ing of fine honinon lace. It, is the or dinary old world shape, not hanging and without roct ers. There is an inscription on a silver plate giving the history of this interest ing item in the outfit. It reads as fol lows: "This bsissinet was made for Princess Victor! Royal in 1840 and was used by all her majesty's children and was given bv the queen to the Duch ess of York in 1KL" Flaying Circus. W4 Chicago Inter Ocean, j j Dorothy Inst roeta Mrs. Gladstone. Hero is an inf tauce of Dorothy's baby talk. She was singing one of her belov ed hymns the other day when Mrs. Gladstone came into the room and be gan to talk to Mrs. Drew. Her little ladyship turned round immediately, ceased her fervtnt devotions and observ ed, "Gran-nan, you should not talk." "Yes, darling." her mother said, "grandmamma must talk tome. "But it was a service," the little one replied, no doubt remembering that her own communication had occasionally been stopped duricg the singing of hymns at ehurch or domestic prayers. Westrain- Lsdf Mayor Tate. Mrs. Yates, the lady maycr of One hunga, New Zealand, has now had Bomo months in oCce, and to the Mel bourne Arjus has been given her im pressions. She has found no difficulty in the work, and soma of tho townsfolk say she is the best mayor Onehmiga has ever had. Determined to know her du ties, she lead studied them, and when she found certain members wanted to talk away time why, she had introduc ed the closure. The work, Mrs. Yates added, she had not found incompatible with her position as a woman, "nor had she found anything objectionable about being a justice of the peace, t ut she had only sat on the bench on one or two oc casions, one of these being when a lit tle girl was charged with stealing. She refused to attend in an affiliation case when she was asked. She thought that in such cases a right minded woman ia inclined to be harder on her sex than men, and she did not think is would be beneficial to adjudicate. Don't It lock I'p Fireplaces. "It is all very well to want to deco rate an open fireplace, said a promi nent woman -physician of New York as we sat waiting in a charming up town fiat for the hostess to appear. "Now, .Mrs. L. thinks sho is way up on hygiene and would be horrified if she was told to the contrary, but with that gaudy screen concealing the fireplace she is shutting off one of the best means cf ventilation the room has in summer. The draft which keeps the fire burning in winter doesn't 8top because July has come. An open fireplace, with its draft, is a splendid means of keeping any room well ventilated an 1 also cool ?r. In ho tels, where tho ugly black iron screen is fastened tightly over the opening, it should be removed. With one window open and the fireplace not stopped up with a lot of truck, a fine current of air can be secured that is a blessing. Nothing more than a potted plant or palm should ever impede that air cur rent. SnSVage f.nil Iinmijjration. The practical bene fit of woman suf rage in increasing the political power of intelligence is illustrated by the statistics-compiled by Dr. Joseph S. Sen ner, and recently published, in regard to tho immigrants landed at Ellis is land, New York, daring 169:5. There were 382,885 males, 122, 9C4 females, almost three m-n to ono woman. This is about the usual proportion. Woman suffrage would double tho American vote, whilq it would add only one-third to the foreign vote, thus vastly increas ing the educated majority, while doing no injnstio to otir naturalized fellow citizens. At present men of foreign birth exert a much greater relative power than their number entitles them to do, since they represent fewer women than do tho American voters. Boston Wom an's Journal. Miss McCnllocli on Horseback. Miss McCulloch, daughter of the Hon. Hugh McCulloch, former secretary of the treasury, is going on a tour around the world, which will occupy two years. Although it is vot verv generally known, she has been writing some extremely j readable stories for the past year, and people who have carefully criticised her work think that she is one cf the possi bilities for coming foremost women writers. She is very independent in her opinions and a fine horsewoman. The family spend the summer in the coun- t try, where tho natives at one time used j to plan to meet her when she rodo j abroad, for Miss McCulloch, they de- clared, had adopted a bifurcated riding habit and rode astride. IMarcia II. Daniels. Mrs. .Marcia Harbert Daniels, who was elected on tho Danville school board last April, is tho first woman chosen in that city for that position. Sho is a daughter of a Massachusetts father and a Kentucky mother. Her grandmother was a sister of Nancy Hanks Lincoln, the mother of President Lincoln. She was born in Indiana, but has lived in Danville for nearly 20 year's. For eight years she served as professor of mathe matics in a prominent seminary, after which she became the wife cf Mr. J. A. Daniels. She is the mother cf five prom ising children, a thoroughly capable woman and a suffragist. Danvilla (Ilia. Letter. SW.kcn Petticoats. The silk petticoat has become an ar ticle of artistic elegance, made of rich brocades and moire silks and trimmed with lace covered ruffles and flounces of chiffon and is almost as important an item of dress as the gown which is worn over it. A very dainty skirt is made of black and whito striped silk, with a flounce of yellow satin at the bottom, over which is 3 plaited silk muslin ruffle edged with narrow black guipure and headed with black insertion and a ruche of muslin. White sat in and white chiffon is the ideal combination for a bridal petticoat. They Did Well. Some of the women who came from oriental countries to the World's fair seem to hav& done very well here. Mme. Hanna Korany is still in New York city and adopts American ways more every day, at least xuch of her foreign ap pearance has disappeared except when she is in her national costume. Another woman, Zuleika Sorabji-Cavalier, from India, has recently been married to a Denver man and is now lecturing to procure funds to aid in building a hos pital in Bombay for high caste women. Tlie Champion Girl. The champion girl of tho period lives out on the Muck. From April 1 to June 1 this year she planted three a?res of potatoes, did all the cooking end sewing for the family, milked four cows, fed the calves, pigs and chicker s, shot three chicken hawks and a wildcat, set the dog cn 18 tramps, attended 13 dances and three picnics, read five dime novels and tat up tip four nights in the w.ck with her beau. Tacorna Union. NOVELTIES IN SUMMER ATTIRE. The figrure on the right shows a novel arrangement of soutache braid on a plain basque, giving a slender effect. Tlie center figure shows a printed mohair own with capo revers and ruche of lace. The iigrure seated on the left shows a polka dot tarleta with novel bertha collar. Tho figure at the rear on the left shows the back oi the cape of the same costume. i- v. .uituClcrks. A new employment for women has been opened by the Bank of England, which has for the first time this year found work for six lady clerks work that their qsick fingtrs and thorough accuracy enables them to perform with great skill. Their duties are to count and compare tho banknotes which, hav ing been in ciculatiou, return to the bank never to bo reissued. Lady clerks were employed in Messrs. Barings' of fice four or five years ago, where they were required to count over the divi dend warrants and comparo them with the counterfoils issued for interest war rants of foreign loans paid by the house. Miss DlsgV Debut. Miss Mabel Diggs, tho 17-year-old daughter of Mrs. Annie L. Diggs, the well known suffragist and Populist ora tor, will follow in the footsteps of this very successful woman. Miss Diggs made her debut at the Populist ratifica tion meeting at Burlingame, Saturday evening, Juno 16, and scored a success." Exckansre. FASHION NOTES. Waists in modified blouse shape, with bands of fancy galloon across the front and back and also across the sleeves, are much liked. A handsome heading for a flounce is made of passementerie in jet, the garni ture being filled in with stars, sequin3 and other fancifully shaped beads. India silk costumes, with plain skirt, a very full, draped sash of embroidered silk, with ends falling almost to the hem of the skirt in front, deep shoulder ruffles of rich lace and a V shaped vest, j with collar and bow in cream colored, white or other delicate tints, are much liked. A new and attractive costume is of cream colored india cashmere, .with trimming of Irish point insertion.

Mother anil Children at School Together. A most remarkable case that probably cannot be duplicated in Maine is men tioned by our Foxcroft correspondent. In what is known as the Lee school dis trict in that town a mother and two children are attending tho school taupht by Miss Mary Weston. Tho three are legal scholars, all being between tho ages of 4 and 21 years. They are con stant attendants, coming together. Lewiston Journal. In a Washington county town, a little while ago, the. local champion liar wa.s brought up before tho justice for stealing hens. It was a pretty plain case, ami It the advico of his lawyer the prisoner said. "1 plead guilty." This surprising answer in place of the string of lies expected staggered the justice. lie rubbed his head. "I guess I'm afraid well, Hiram, said he, after a thoughtful pause, I guess I'll have to have more evidence before I sen tence you. Green Eag. One of His Pnns. The eminent lawyer, Mr. William M. Evarts, is an inveterate punster. Doing at tho top of Mount Washington, ho began a speech, which the crowd of visitors had begged from him, with this felicitous pun: "Wo aro not strangers. We are friends and neighbors. Wc have all been born a.tid brought up here!" Youth's Companion, There was a price upon her head. She was very calm. A smile played about her lips. 'Tis well!" She paused a moment! in thought. 'Tis well! I will take it." Then she removed the price from her head. There was a trile of lace and a flow er or two, of course, but the hat was mostly price. Puck.

Dr. Talnaajre Preaches an Eloqu.ot Etrmoa Through the Frees Life Is Alwr7 Worth Llvluj; when It Is a Christian Id fa. TJp.COKLVir, July 22. Rev. Dr. Tal ruage, who is now touring- in Australian cities, has chosen as the subject for to-day's sermon throusjh the press: "Worth Living-," the text being: taken from Lamentations VI 3?. "Where fore doth a living man complain?" If we leave to the evolutionists to g-uess where we came from and to the theologians to prophecy where we are g-oing- to, we still have left for con sideration the important fact that we are here. There may be sime doubt about where the river rises and some doubt where the river empties, but there can be no doubt about the' fact that we are sailing on it. So I am not surprised that everybody asks the question, "Is life worth living?" Solomon in hia unhappy moments Baya It is not "Vt.nity," "vexation of spirit," "no good," are his estimate. The fact is that Solomon was at one time a polyiramiat and that toured his disposition. One wife makes a man happy; more than one makes him wretched. But Solomon was converted from polygamy to monogamy, and the last words he ever wrote, as far as we can read them, were the words "moun tains of spicea" lut Jeremiah says in my text life is worth living. In a book supposed to be doleful, and lugubrious, and sepulchral, and entitled "Lamentations." be plainly intimates that the blessing of merely living is so great and grand a blessing that though a man have piled on him all misfi rtunes and disasters he has no right to complain, lhe author of my text cries out in startling intona tion to all lands and to all centuries, "Wherefore docs a living man com plain?" A diversity of opinion in our time as well as in olden time. Here is a young man of light hair, and blue eyes, and sound digestion, and gener ous salary, and happily affianced, and on the way to become a partner in a commercial firm of which he is an im portant clerk. Ask him whether life is worth living. He will laugh in your face and sax-: "Yes, yes, yes!" Here la a man who has come to the fortiea He is at the tip-top of the hiU of life. Every step has been a stum bie and a braise. The people he trusted hare turned out deserters, and the money he has honestly made he has been cheated out of. His nerves are out of tune. He has poor appe tite, and all the food he does eat does not assimilate. Forty miles climbing up lhe hill of life have been to him like climbing- the Matterhorn, and there are forty miles yet to go 'down, and descent is always more dangerous than ascent. Ask him whether life is worth living, and he will drawl out in shivering and lusru. brious and appalling negative, "No, no, no!" How are we to decide this matter righteously and intelligently? You will find the same man vacillating, oscillating in his opinion from dejec tion to exuberance, and if he be very mercurial in hia temperament it will depend very much upon which way the wind blows. If the wind blow from the northwest and you ask him, he will say, "Yes;" and if it blow from the northeast and you ask him, he will say, "No." How are we then to get the question righteously an swered? Suppose we call all nations together in a great convention on eastern or western hemisphere, and let all those who are in the affirmative say "Aye" and all those who are in the negative say "No." While there would be hundreds of thousands who would answer in the affirmative, there would be more millions who would answer in the negative, and be cause of the greater number who have sorrow and misfortune and trouble the "Noes" would have iL The answer I shall give will be different from either, and it will commend itself to all who hear me this day as the riglit answer. If you ask me "Is life worth living?" I answer, it all depends upon the kin-J of life you live. In the first place, I remark, thst a life of mere money getting is always a failure, because you will never get as much as you want. The poorest peo ple in this country are the richest, and next to them those who are half as rich. There is not a scissors grind er on the streets of New York or Brooklyn who is so anxious to make money as these men who have piled op fortunes yrar after year in store houses, in government securitieo, ia tenement houses, in whole city blocks. You ought to see them jump when they hear the re bell ring. You ought to see them in their excitement when some bank explodes. You ought to see their agitation when there is proposed a reformation in the tariH. Their nerves tremble like harp strings, but no music in the vibration. They read the reports from Wall street ia the morning with a concern ment that threatens paralysis or apo plexy, or, more probably, they have a elegraph or a telephone in their own house, so they catch every breath of change in the money mar ket. The disease of accumulation has eaten into them eaten into their hearts, into their lungs, into their spleen, into their lives. Into their bones. Chemista have sometimes analyzed the human body, and tney say it is so much maguesia, so much lime, mo much chlorate of coUsiium. If some Chris tian chemist would analyze one of these financial behvmoths he would find hn is made up of copper, and gold, and silver, and zinc, and lead, and coal, and iron. This is not a life worth lining. There are too many earthquakes ia it, too many agouie In It, too many perdition; in It They build their castles, and they open their picture galleries, and they sum mon prima donnas, and thr offer I every inducement for hapcinesa to coma and live there, but happtaesa will not com. I They send footmanned and postil lion ed equipage to bring ber; she will not ride to their door. They send pilncely escort: she will nottake their arm. They make their gateways triumphal arches; she will not ride ander them. They set a golden throne before a golden plate; she turns away from the banquet. They call to her from upholstered balcony; she will not listen. Mark you. tliia ia the fail ure of those who have had large ac cumulation. And then you must take into consid eration that the vast majority of those who make the dominant idea of life money-fretting fall far short cf afflu ence. It is estimated that only about two out of a hundred business men have anything worthy the name of success. A man who spends his life with the one dominant idea of finan cial accumulation spends a life not worth living. So the idea of worldly approvaL If that be dominant in a man's life be ia miserable. The two most unfortu nate men in this country for the six months of next F residential campaign will be t two men nominated for the Presidency. The reservoirs of abuse, and diatribe, and malediction will gradually fill up, gallon above gallon, hogshead above hogshead, and about autumn these two reservoirs will be brimming full, and a hose will be attached to each one, and it will play away on these nominees, and they will have to stand it, and take the abuse, and the falsehood, and the caricature, and the anathema, and the caterwauling, and the filth, and they will be rolled in itand rolled over and over in it until they are choked, and submerged, and strangulated, and at every sign of returning consciousness they will be barked at by all the hounds of political parties from ocean to ocean. And yet, there are a hundred men to-day struggling for that privi lege, and there are thousands of men who are helping them in the struggle. Now, that ia not a life worth living. You can get slandered and abused cheaper than that! Take it on a smaller scale. Do not be so ambitious to have a whole reservoir rolled over on you. But what you see in the matter of high political preferment you see in every community in the struggle for what is called social position. Tens of thousands of people trying to g-et into that realm, and they are under terrific tension. What is social position? It is a difficult thing to de fine, but we all know wbatit is. Good morals and intelligence are not neces sary, but wealth, or the show ol wealth, ia absolutely indispensable. There are men to-day as notorious for their libertinism as the night is famous for its darkness who move in what is called Mgb. social position. There are hundreds of out-and-out rakes in American society whose names are mentioned among the distinguished guests at the greet levees. They have annexed all the known vices and are longing for other worlds of diabolism to conquer. Good morals are not necessary in many of the exalted circles of society. Neither is intelligence necessary. You find in that realm men who would not know an adverb from an adjective if they met it a hundred times a day, and who could not write a letter of acceptance or regrets with out the aid of a secretary. They buy their libraries by the square yard, only anxious to have the bind ing Russian. Their igrnorance ia posi tively sublime. Making nglish grammar almost disreputable. And yet the finest parlors open before them. Good morals and intelligence are not necessary, but wealth, or a show of wealth, ia positively indis pensable. It does not make any dif ference how you g"t your wealth, if you only got it. The best way for you to get into social position is for you to buy a large amount on credit, then put your property in your wife's name, have a few preferred creditors, and then make an assignment. Then disappear from the community until the breeze la over and then come back and start in the same business. Do you not see how beautifully that will put out all the people who are in com petition with you and try ing to make an honest living? How quickly it will get you into high- social position! What is the use of forty or fifty years of hard work when you can by two or three bright strokes make a great fortune? Ah! my friends, when you really lose your money, how quick they will let you drop, and the higher you get the harder you will drop. Amid the hills of New Hampshire, In olden times, there sits a mother. There are six children in tne house hold four boys and two girl a Small farm. Very rough, hard work to coax a living out of it. Mighty tug to make the two ends of the year meet The boys go to school in winter and work the farm in summer. Mother is the chief presiding'spirit With her hands she knits all the stockings for the lit tle feet, and she ia the maatuamaker for the boys, and she ia the milliner for the girls. There ia only one mu sical instrument in the house the spinning wheel. Tbe food is very plain, but it is always well provided. The winters are very eold, but are kept out by the blankets she qailted. On Sunday, when she appears in the village church, her children around her. the minister looks down, and ia reminded of the- Bible description of a good housewife "Her children arise up and call her blesaed; her hus band also, and h praiseth her. Some years go by, and the two eld est boys want a collegiate education, and the household economies are severer, and the calculations are closer, and until those two boys get their education' there Is a hard battle for Liead. One of these bovs enters the university, stands ia a T i'r -widely influential, and r.cai righteousness, judgment and tr perance, and thousands during ministry are blesd. The oilier l i t who got the collegiate education go-- into the law, and thence into legisla tive halls, and after a while lie com mands listen ng senates as he make a plea for the downtrodden at.

STATE JOURNAL, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 27, 18U4. JIE ATTACKS IN GALLS. CoL. Joiia M. Brown Talks to Col ored Men- EE CESSUEES TEE EX-SEHATOR For Ills Drportitlon Scheme Want IIIoi Withdraws From the Cam paign. CoL John SI. Brojv n served notice on the Republican state central committee last night at the meeting of the Third ward Republican club at the court house. He is going to denand that Ingalls be taken out cf the field or be made to apologize for something he has written about the colored people. lie said: "The colored voters have for thirty years belong ed to.the Republican party and for the first time we find that they" are dividing up. The question with the colored voter is, which party will give him nearest the American citizen ship." In speaking of Ingalls CoL Brown said: toA few years ago he wrote a letter to the Globe-Democrat, in which he said that the colored people of this country should be deported. Mind you he made o qualification he simply said we should be deported This same man said in his speech at I'redonia that he had come into the Third district because Senator Kirkpatriek the Republican candidate, was the same kind of a Re publican that he was. Now we don't want that kind of Republicans. "We have in Kansas 20,000 colored voters and the Rjpublican state ticket will be defeated if it does not get our vote. In this district we have 4,0u0 votes and Charley Curtis can not go back to congress unless he gets our votes. Xow A am ready to say to the state central committee that unless you take Ingalls out of the field or have him apologize to the colored people of Kansas for his statement about them it will be fight to the death. If the Republicans want our votes let them treat is as men we will not be insulted and unless Ingalls gets down oil his high horse we .will knock him down." James II. Guy one of the other speak ers said what the colored people needed most was money aad they would never get that until they founded establish ments which woul i give employment to their own race. He said: "Fred Doug lass, Lynch, Bruce and all those men to whom we point w;th pride have been failures because they have helped them selves but have not helped others." A. A. Kuykendall, Judge Jamison and Dennis Hope also spoke. isI.OA.T'J ACCKflAXCE. It 1 a MaalfaiU, Flaoinjr lila Views Ha lo re tie Poptf. In a rather lengthy letter to the Popu list central committee, R. J. Sloat today accepts tlie nomination offered him as the Populist candidate for representative from tho Thirty-sixth district. It has taken Mr. tloat a long1 time to make up his mind, and asida from the axulanation he ,-ives in the letter, he says that he has accepted a position as the traveling representative of a glove manufacturing company of New York, and that the delay was partly occasioned by his effort to find out if his acceptance and his campaign duties would in any way conflict with his duties as a travel ing salesman. H.s headquarter will be in Topeka, and to will travel in the state. In his letter he says: 1 ei ust be either above or beneath the ordinary feelings of men did I not value the flattering kindness of your conven tion, in tendering me, unasked, a unani mous nomination as its candidate for representative in the legislature; and I shall be sorry to Lave it thought that my hesitation and ddlay in accepting have been due to the aJectation and indiffer ence I did not feel, or to any doubt on my part as to the principles of the Peo ple's party. My hesitation has been due solely to the inconvenient circumstance that I am not rich, but am obliged to get my living by working for wages. The pay of a representative, if he be honest and true, to the people, cannot exceed 150.00, all told; and the wage worker in the log slature who dares to be true to wage-workers, may not hope to be a favorite with corporations as em ployers, after his legislative days have passed, but is altogether likely to find himself blacklisted henceforth. Hence, it was necessary that I should think, and think very seriously before taking this step, wht-ther 1 could afford it; for, if I go to the legislature, 1 am determined to take no wages not paid by the state, and I am equally determined to be true to the people who work, or who starve when denied the chance to work. I do not think such an undertaking can prove very profitable ti me, after 1 have care fully thought it over, but under the cir cumstances I wo aid be a cowardly trait or to my people were I to refuse be cause of possible consequences to my self; and I have decided to accept, let the consoq uenees be what they may. As to what a wage worker in the leg islature should d, I have some very de cided notions, but I am not a philoso phical bigot, and shall be glad to re ceive, at any tim any suggestions work inpmen may choose to oiler. An end should ba put to the system of letting contracts for public work, by which contractors are enabled to live and grow rich frjm. the unpaid labor of other men. The state, the counties and the cities should be their own contractors, paying decent wages to those who do the work, ia inaugurating the eight-hour day, and employing local labor on local public works. The stste capitol should ba fin ished on this plan, and should not be finished until this plan is adopted, as, should the Populists have a majority in the house, it doubtless will be. Speaking of the capitol, every busi ness man and property owner in Topeka is deeply interested in the completion of that building, the appropriation for which, if expended under the direct em ployment plan, would put thousands of dollars into circulation ia this city; and every business man and property owner knows that, the senate being Populist, and its feeling of two years ago prevail ing, the appropriation to finish the capi tol is much morn likely to get through if urged by a Populist member elected by the voters of thin city, and urging it as a measure certain to give employment to local labor. He must be a blind partisan indeed who can not see that no more profitable step .could be taken by this city than the election of a Populist to the legislature. No matter what may be the result of t ie election this fall the senate will be Pjpuliat stilL The fcecossity of a- fair system of ar bitration of labor disputes is conceded by alL It shottld, however, b a system con sistent with the liberty of workiagmeii; and the Peojue's party is not only the one which because of its sympathies can be trusted to devise a system fair to la borers, but it Is the only party which un equivocally declares for it in its plat form; and it declare! for it before the present great strike made other people first begin to think. The people should not be at the mercy and the folly or the cupidity of their law makers, but should decide for themselves whether laws shall be enacted; aiesult which can be brought about and the poli tician and the lobbyist be retired from public affairs by the adoption of the in itiative and referendum which the Peo ple's party advocates in its platform and its press without any change in its con stitution, this could be adopted at once in cities, and an end be thus put to the granting of valuable franchises by city councils, and to all opportunities for municipal corruption, aud it should be adopted next winter. The People's party alone unequivocally advocates as party doctrine the. govern ment ownership and operation of rail roads and telegraphs, and the public ownership of all public utilities; and only by voting with that party can any one hope te see this plan, so beneficial to the people, adopted. I need not say that I am in hearty sympathy with this de mand. No workingman ever fears injustice at the hands of a Populist governor, or a Populist judge. During the present strike of railroad men, from Populists, and from Populists alone, have come out spoken resolutions championing the cause of the strikers. Only under Popu list administration have strikers been able to feel secure that government sym pathized with workinguien in their strug gles and that the power of the state would not be used in the interest of greed to crush defendselees labor. Who that reads this utterance by Mr. Overmyer can doubt as to the sym pathies of the party he represents? "Pop ulism has now reached the stage where it simply Coxeyism, and Coxeyisrn is in cipient revolution superinduced by or ganized vagabondage and militant scouudreliam." Recent complaint of the Daily Capital that the People's party had stood by the strikers during the lat days that tried men's souls, the Capital being the organ of the Kansas Republicans, the utterances of Mrs. J. Ellen Foster at the Republican state convention, denouncing all labor organizations, and the speech of ex-Senator Ingalls at Fredonia, the other day, bitterly denouncing the refusal of working men to submit peaceably to be made slaves, all show quite clearly the friendship of the Republican party for arrogant wealth as against struggling labor. Whatever may have been the politics of workingrnea heretofore, how can any of them hereafter vote with any but the People's party without voting, with their eyes wide opon, for their own enslave ment? Remember that it was in the midst of the present strike that a Popu list convention nominated by acclamation for the legislature a man who, by tho kindness of his fellows, represented that strike in this community. This spoke louder than any written platform; and this has led me to accept a position which to one in my situation is not a po sition to be coveted. Should I be elected, I shall carry into the legislature the feelings and yearn ings of the wageworkers; and I shall labor for the interests of thot-e who work for wages in the cities, or who give chat tel mortgages in order to enjoy the priv ilege of worting for less lUuu nothing on farms. Corporations are alway represented by their hired men in the legislature, aud I shall not deem it my business to see that special privileges are granted to them at the expense of the working men. No man can be injured by justice to the common people, unless he thrives upon injustice to them. With these explanations, and through you thanking the convention for its flat tering kindness to me and to thos3 for whom I stand, I am, gentlemen, at your service as your candidate for representa tive of the Thirty-sixth (30th) represen tative district. R. J. Sloat. ANNIE DIGGS CO.NFIIIEXT, Says the Bapablkitn Voter Will Not Go Hack oa &uft.-ita. Mrs. Annie Dlgg3 returned yesterday from the southern part of the state and stopped in Topeka a short time before going out to talk to Populists elsewhere. Little Mrs. Diggs is as happy as a lark. She says that the suffrage cause is pros pering. "I found one tiling, and that is that the sentiment among the Republi cans who were going to vote against the amendment because it was endorsed by the Populists is changing, and we will lose very feiv votes on that account. The Populist speakers are speaking for suf frage in the campaign, and I am satisfied that the women will ba enfranchised this fall." DROWNED IX A POND. Trenaey Dakar I.o.e Hit Lire Id L. G. GarliaKhousa's flhpond. Trenney Baker, son of David Baker, a farmer living three miles northeast of Pauline, was drowned in a fishpond on the farm of L. G. Garlinghouse, two miles south of Highland Park, last evening. The water in the pond is twenty -five feet in depth in some places. A party of boys including young Baker were in bathing and the boy was probably taken with cramps while in the deep wafer. He was 14 years old and one of a large family of children. The funeral was held at 3 o'clock this afternoon. DEATH OF MRS. TAIL. Tha Widow ef tha Lata Bishop Vail Xasea Away. Mrs. Ellen Bowman Vail, widow of Bishop Vail, died last evening.

INNOCENCE SO SWEET Keigns in tlie Consciousness of the Police Board. THEY KNOW SOTHIKG HROKG Concerning; the Method of Chief Lind aey and Captain Giah HaveaChlld llite Confidence In Their Appointees. A Journal reporter called on Police Commissioner A. B. Whiting la3t even ing and asked him what he thought of the proceedings to oust Chief of Police H. C. Lindsey and Captain Pete Gish. "I don't know anything about it," re plied Mr. Whiting. The reporter then handed him a copy of the Journal, and he carefully read every line of the article which included the affidavit of a club man, who told how he had given money to Lindsey and Gish. ''If that is true," said Commissioner Whiting with emphasis, "I want them to run it down. I surely would countenance nothing of that kind. If this is only a political trick, however, and is done only for effect it is an outrage. When we elected Lindsey there was some talk against him, but it was noth ing more than street talk, and I will say that I have kept my eyes open. I have been on the lookout and have failed to tind that the chief has ever done any thing wrong. So it ia natural that I should uot credit this story, but I am open to conviction. I would want some thing better than the affidavit of a club man, a violator of the law, before I would believe such stories." "D.d not the police collect money from the low women in the city?" "No; they did not. It is a serious question whether it is best to drag these women up before the police court and show them to the crowd which attend the court, and the board discussed the question. "We decided that such women were getting altogether too numerous and that they should be arrested. Captain Gish protested that they did not nave money to pay their fines, but we ordered their arrest and Captain Gish gave them receipts for the amount they deposited for their appearance in police court. This is allowed to other people and we could not ma&e a distinction. I made inquiries in many cases and ia every case I found that the names had been regis tered on the book at the city prison. We did not order these women to be fined monthly." Yount In tarvia weil. Police Commissioner Yount said: "The statement that I am implicated in any way in the charges against Chief Lindsey and Captain Gish is false. No affidavit to that effect has been drawn up and filed with the county attorney. "I was chairman of the nuance com mittee of the Populist league which at tended to the arrangements for the state convention and I asked the stores, ho tels, banks and individuals to contribute to ihe expenses of the state convention; and thai was the end of mi' connection with the collection of money for any pur pose whatever. "I was very much surprised at the pro ceedings commenced by the couuty at torney and so far as my information goes there is no good evidence of any wrunj doing on the part of any of the officers. If these charges are true the men ought to suffer the penalty and the court will not have to remove them either. I will use my vote to that end, if I lose my official head in four minutes. "I hope; however, that the court will fix an earlier day for the hearing. There is no use of its being dragged along for weeks. If these men are guilty we want to know it." Chief Lindsey is in Kansas City today and could not be seen. County Attorney Safford is in his pri vate office today taking the depositions of several man whom Sheriff Burdge brought to him. The officers claim to have one witness who saw McWilliams give Gish ten dollars. This witness.who is a German, says, ''I don't vant to des dify, bud Geesh he mus'nd lie apoud it, or by chimminy I vilL" WELLMANNQT LOST. Information Received That the Party la Safe. London, July 27. Information has been received here which leaves no room for doubting that the Wellman arctic ex ploring party is safe and on its way to the north. ONE MORE SPEAKEASY. A Joint Pulled Today at No. 326 Kansas Avenue. Sheriff Burdge and Under Sheriff Tom Wilkerson closed ano'her joint today, of the old-fashiened sort. This joint does not claim to be a club "for the inculcation of a desire for learning in the higher branches of science aud literature," or even have a beneticiary fund for those of its members in distress. It was a plain joint where whisky was sold by the glass. It was located upstairs in the frame building at '626 Kansas avenue. The operators of the place are John V olff and Mrs. Lizzie Cole. They were locked up in default of $300 bond each. The equivalent of about fifteen pints of whisky was found on the premises. The complaining wit nesses are 1 W. Fielder, F. W. Jacobs and P. T.

The bill to create a national board of arbitration intro duced by Representative Springer which follows the recommendations of the president's message of 1887, will be re ported to the house favorably by the com mittee on labor. Some immaterial amendments were made to the bill today, and the vote was unanimously in its favor. An effort will be made to secure a day for its consider ation this session. One of the amendments provides that investigations shall be made in cases where the public interests are involved; another that the reports shall be made upon the merits of the case. 3,000 feet of rubber garden hose, can be bought at a bargain in large or small quantities at A.
