Answers the Questions of the Jutle With Coolness. A (ill EX T CHO WD Assembles in the Court Room to Hear the Trial. Newspaper Men's Copy" Culled by the Judce, Who Presumes to Blue Pencil What He Wishes Suppressed. Ltoss, Aug. 2. Cesario Santo, the as flassin of President Carnot, was put on trial in the assize court today. His re moval from tin St. Paul prison to the court was without incident. M. Breuillac, who presides over the court, is the judge who drew much criticism upon himself by condemning the bill for the suppres sion of anarchistic crime which was re cently passed by the chambers. Addressing the jury at the opening of the assize July 23, 31. Breuillac used the following words: "While the chamber of deputies, acting upon the proposals of the government; is endeavoring to rele gate to the common law courts certain crimes which you were occasionally priv ileged to be called upon to try, we, in tins court, by tae aid of twelve honest and free citizens summoned from the bosom of the nation, will punish the mur derer of yesterday and endeaver, accord ing to the measure of our power, to pre vent the peril of tomorrow." The palace of justice was to-day guarded in the most thorough manner ag'-iinst possible anarchism. The regu lar pol.ee guards were reinforced by an entire battalion of infantry, and the vvinity of tho court had in consequence vry much tho appearance of a military cantonment, boldiers were (stationed on all approaches, wuile a double cordon of troops aurrounled the building itself. In addition ,i company of infantry is pasted in the entrance halls and a pla toon of cavalr3- surrounded the prison van as it was driven at a gallop from the prison of St. Paul to the court house. The soldiers on duty about the palace of justice are supplemented by every variety of police uthcials, from the local gen d' amies to the a 4rewdest detective ollicer Irom iho i aia perfecure. A Large Audience lrent. A large squad of policemen in citi zen's dress haci teen specially told off to furnish the auiience, every seat usually available to tho public being reserved for the detectives, but at the very las moment. the programme was changed, and wheu the doors w .-re open d a waiting crowd was allowed in and in a few minutes all the available space within the court room was deusely packed. Wi-hout th?re was brilliant suusuiue and within there was suffocat ing heat. Tin only air moving was that from a hunt roil fans. In the gallery were many ladies, almost all young and g.iily dressed, furnished striking touches of color. There were eighty specially selected newspaper men, and these, owing to tiie pos; p oueuient of the trial made puspo3e ly by the government to permit of the enactment of the anti-anarchist law Had t.iGiiiselves ui der strict control. Por the lir-t timo in the experience of many of them their "copy" will be edited by the jadge presiding and they will be directed as to what thty are not to put in their re pot ts. The trial i expected to occupy the whole of today and part of tomorrow. There will be no long speeches, the pub lic, prosecutor confining himself to a forty minute address. Some people who should have come forward will not ap pear, doubtless fearing reprisals, but twenty-tight indispensable witnesses have been ea'led by the government and they include all those who remembered haying spoken to Cesario as he was journeying Irom .Cette to Lyons; the owner of tho lime kiln, where Cesario worked in 1S.J3; the l aker who employed him at Cette; General Borias, the chief of -the late president's military house hold; SI. Kivdud, prefect of the depart ment of the lihine; the two men ser vants who sat on the rumble of the late president's curriage and Dr. Gailleton, the mayor of Lyons, who rode in the carriage with SI. Carnot when Cesario struck the deadly blow. Dramatic Lviileacn Expectil. The evidence of SI. Artigaud, the gun smith, of whom Cesario bought the dag ger, is expected to be very dramatic. Several tinus before he paid for the weapon Ceserio tried to see whether he couli handle it properly, and several tithes, before the gunsmith, the assassin rehearsed his idea of how he would stab his victim. Santo proposes, practically, to defend himself, but will have the assistance of SI. Dubreuil, a Lyons advocate of con figurable no.e in criminal trials. The touch of the gruesome, always noteworthy n French trials, will be sup plied by the instruments used in operat ing on the president, a drawing from the carriage in which the president was sit ting w hen slabbed, Cesario's dagger and the liver of the murdered president pre served in alcohol. Ihe prUoier, during his life in the St. Paul prison, has found time for one re gret only that he ran away after the deed. To himself his crime U justified, ere iitable. even c-lorious. and he has been anxious to be tried quickly. Nobody has sent the assassin any mon ey since he was arrested, and he has sub sisted on prison fare. The leather har ness which was imposed upon him in lieu of a stnight jacket, has not prevent ed him usiDg the pen. ink and paper sup jiisd to him, and with these he has wnded away the time. His penmanship li ia.r, Lu; mdicativb ol vulgarity, lie has read many booka of travel from, the prison library. The court opened at 9:15 a. m. and the judge president was no sooner seated than he called upon the gene d'tirraes to bring in the accused. All the persona present held their breath as the assassin of President Carnot was t rough! into court. The prisoner was short, and looked somewhat scared as he came in securely handcuffed to a gen d'arme on either aide of him and two others bringing- up the rear. Ceturio March. to tlie Dock. Cesario, as he marched to tho dock, wore a somewhat strange costume. His coat was of a yellowish color, his vest and trousers were gray, he wore a white shirt with a turn-down collar and a gmy necktie. So soon as he was in the dock, his counsel, M. Dubren and SI. Da Gen eral, professor of Italian at the Lyons business college, the latter having1 been appointed interpreter, exchanged a few words with the prisoner and the prisoner took his seat and the reading of the long indictment bega'i. Cesario listened impassively during the reading of this document which coetain- If lifcsfr A Y LAX t l n v CESARIO SANTO HERONYMO. The aT;n of SaSI-Oirnot. president of the French Kepublic.

Cesario only became interested in the j indictment when it narrated the actual dead, as follows: "The murderer approached the car- j nage, taKes irom nis pocket tiie poig nard, still wrapped in a piece of paper, and plunged trie blade, sixteen centime tres long, up to the hut, into the breast of M. Carnot, crying 'Vive la revolu tion.'" This crv was only heard l y the foot man in the general confusion. When Cesario dropped the weapon he cried, "Vi"e l'anarchie."' When the reading was finished names of thirty witnesses were called, and the presiding judge, SI. Breuillac, began to question the accused. The judge tirst recited facts about the family of the prisoner, the latter answer ing. "Just so, sir; 1 never had a dispute with any one' Cesario 5Xrallty. The president continued: "How about your morality?" "I suppose it was tha same as that of other young men," replied Cesario, smil ing slightly. I understand that 3 0U desire to pass as an ascetic' said the judge, "but that is not correct as we have evidence from the Cette hospital that you have always had a horror lor women.-' "But," continued Breuillac, "what is important to know whether you were re sponsible for your actions." The prisioner here cried with great animation. "Yes, sir. I am responsible for my actions. I have never been ill." Replying to further questions he eaid that not one of his family was or had been weak minied. The presiding judge then turned to the prisoner and said: "Since your ar rest did you write to your mother saying that you killed the president 'from anarchist motives.' Are these your words?" "Yes," replied Cesario with indiffer ence. The judge then recalled the fact that Cesario had as a child rigured as a poseur in the religious processions of .Motta Viscoati, his native town, for the beauty of the prisoner as a child, was remarka ble and until he fell under the spell of anarchism, two years ngo, he was much drawn to a life of religion. Then, the anarchists' imfiarntnatory litera ture excited Cesario so much that the attention of the authorities was drawn to his dangerous utterances, and a warn ing was sent to his family. Like ether persons, the doctrines were incurably in his veins, and after some ups and downs, notably five months ia prison for distrib uting anarchist leaflets outside the bar racks at Milan. Cesario planned and exe cuted the dejd for which he is now on triaL In reply to the judge's questions in re gard to his childhood, and his taking part in religious processions, Cesario answered mockingly: "Children do not know what they are doing." He Loiel H'. Mthr. The judge the.11 examined Cesario at length as to his connection with anarchy. Dui'iag this examination tad presiu.eut said: "Your family tried to wean you from these horrible doctrines." "I love my mother," the prisoner re plied, "but I cannot submit to her preju dice or to my family prejudices. There is a larger lamily ht humanity." In spite of repeated efforts of the judge to draw from the prisoner some state ment in regard to his connection with other anarchists, Cesario would say noth ing on the subject, being especially dumb when the judge sought to extract from him information as to the means adopted by anarchists to communicate with each other and as to his immediate associates in anarchism. The prisoner was then questioned about his movements at Cette and other places, previous to the assassination, and during this portion of the trial the judge remarked: "Your re lations were always with anarchists?" "Naturally," he replied. "I could not consort with the bourgoisie." The presiding judge afterwards ques tioned the prisoner concerning how much money he had remaining after he had paid his bills at Cette, asking "What did you do with the remaining five francs?" "I bought a poignard," repliee Ce3ario defiantly. The assassin narrated the incidents of his approach to and attack upon Presi dent Carnot, replying to a question at its close by SI. Breuillac if he did not know the penalty of hia act would be death. "I am an anarchist, and I hate the Bour geois, clergy and the heads of the state." AFTER AN AGED WOMAN. V. S. Commissioner Mllehnm 11 -ts Mrs. Lois Wulsbruoker, Agoil 70, Arrested. Sirs. Lois Waisbrooker, a woman 70 years old, was arrested this afternoon on a warrant issued by United States Com missioner John Slileham, on the charge of sending obscene matter through the mails. For a little more than a year she has edited a free love paper called "Founda tion Principles" and it is an article pub lished in a recent issue of the paper which caused her arrest on information of PostofSce Inspector SIcAfee. Her paper was published in the Ladies Library hall building on Kansas avenue. If Sirs. "Waisbrooker cannot give bond she will probably have to go to jail. 'Ihe spectacle of a woman aged 70 in jail is scarcely one that Topeka could be proud of. A BIG CYCLISTS' MEETING. Iwnty-FlT Hundred Dollars In Frizes to He Awarded at Chicago. Chicago, 111., Aug. 2.

Andrew Jackson's Tomb Mo lested by Grave Robbers. A Trench Three Feet Long i3 Dnr. DISCOVERED TODAY. The Eobbers Evidently Were Frightened Away. No Motive Known for tli8 Desecration. Nashville:, Tenn., Aug. 2. Informa tion is received here from Hermitage, where General Andrew Jackson's re mains are buried, that his grave was disturbed last night by unknown per sons. A hole eighteen inches deep and three feet in length was dug at the head of the grave, but the parties were frightened away before they accomplished their object, 'Ihe Hermitage is twelve miles from this city. This place, which was the old home of General Jackson, and where he was laid to rest in June, 1845, is the property of the state of Tennessee, and has been for several years in charge of the Ladies Hermitage association. The object of this association i to preserve the home and relics of the ex-president. The remainder of the estate is used a3 a home for ex-confederate soldiers. Tne remains of Sirs. Jackson, wife of the general, rest next to those of her hus band, in a tomb prepared by him. It re sembles in appearauce an open summer house a small white dome supported by pillars of marble. The tomb of General Jackson bears the simple inscription: "General Andrew Jackson, born Siarch 15, 1700; died June 8, 1847." The desecration of General Jackson's grave was discovered at an early hour today, and the fact was immediately re ported to the Ladies' Hermitage associa tion. A long plank was left lying beside the grave. buspicion rests upon a well dressed negro, for whom the authorities are now looking. He went to the resi dence of a white man living half a mile from the Hermitage yesterday afternoon and borrowed a shovel, which he re turned this morning. Vv hile near the Hermitage he made some inquiries about General Jackson's j tomb. 'Ihe Ladies Hermitage associa- tion officers are at a los to know what i could be the object of the persons who disturbed the grave. There are only i three persons in charge of the house and grounds and they kuew notniug of the nocturnal visit. TRIPLETS R0RN. o rt ll Topek CUIm4 t li Honor of Helog Tlieir I'luce of Uirtli. Three lives were ushered into the woild at one birth this morning in the famuy of Sir. John P. Archer, at 14 West, Curtis street, 2orth Topeka. They are all girls, and when the reporter called there he was informed that they had a fair chance for a continued existence. They are perfectly developed inlauts, though 6mall, weighing respectively 3, and 4 pounds. The mother is oo years of age and has three other children, the youngest being six years old. The father is btS years old. Both parents are naiives of Russia, and came to America about two years ago, coming directly to North To peka. A hey have been married sixteen years. Sir. Archer speaks English very poorly and an interpreter was necessary in order to carry on a conversation with him. He was a little suspicious of the designs of the reporter at tirst, but wheu he under stood what was wanted, he seemed much pleased. He works for the Santa Fe, on the section, and the family is far from being in affluent circumstances. Their house is a small one story affair, and affords little encouragement to the recent arrivals to grow. The father seemed to think this a great country PERSONAL GOSSIP.

KridamA. IN A DEFIANT TONE. Strikers at Argentine Write m Bold Let ter to the Court. The members ef the American Rail way union at Argentine against whom an injunction was served to prevent them from interfering with the operation of the Santa Fe railroad have taken action on the injunction as a lodge. They were commanded to appear in the United States court in this city next Slonday to show cause why the injunc tion should not be made permanent. The lodge decided to not comply with the order and mailed the following letter to George Miaritt: "Argentine, Kas., Aug. I, 1804. "George F. Hharltt, Clerk Federal Court, To peka, Kas. Sir: On behalf of myself and other men at this point, who have been served with restraining orders made returnable at Topeka on the lirst Slonday in August, I beg leave to say, we are not conscious of having violated any law and we do not feel justified in paying railroad fare to answer them in person, nor will we employ an attorney. 'If the decrees of the court can be in voked against us with no more justifica tion than in the present case, then our boasted justice and liberty is simply a jughandle affair, and we wiil not attempt to resist it. "You will find us at Argentine when ever you want us. iVery respectfully, seal J. S. McFapden, "Secretary Lodge STo.49, A. R. U." Judge Foster said today that the men evidently misunderstood the order, as it simply required them to be present if they could show why the injunction should not be made permanent, und that if they did not appear there would be no opposition to an injunction and it would be issued. THE U. S. A PROTECTOR. This Country Asked to Protect Chinese Id Japan and Japanese in China. Washington, Aug. 2. At the request of the Chinese and Japanese govern ments, made through their representa tives here, the state department has in structed U. S. Slinister Dunn at Tokio and Sir. Uenby, charge of Pekin, to take under the protection of the United btatea the citizens of China in Japan and of Japan in China. This is distinctively a war meas ure, and although it cannot be learned at the state department that it has been regularly noti fied of the existence of war between China and Japan, this movement on the part of Secretary Gresham indicates that he has been so advised aud ia proceed ing upon that information. This is not the first time that the flag of the United States has afforded protection to foreigners in hos tile countries, for during the Franco Prussian war, the United states minister at Paris took under his care the Germans resident in that city. The selection of the United States in this case by both parties is regarded as an evidence of their belief in our abso lute impartiality. NOVELTIES.

STATB JOURNAL. THURSDAY EV"EMTN"G-. AUGUST 2. 1891. FORTY ACRES OF FIRE Great Eain in the Lumber Dis trict of Chicago. Ilea Were Compelled to Flee for Their Lives. TWO PERSONS KILLED. The Loss Will Amount to About $1,500,000. Chicago, Aug-. 2. Tbe lumber dis trict of Chicago was last night visited by one of the most disastrous fires in its history and the loss will probably foot up between 51.200 O'JO and 1,500, 009, although it will be twenty-four hours before the dam lie can be esti mated with accuracy. The following1 concerns were entirely cleaned out by the flames and everything1 con tained in their yards has been utterly destroyed: S. IC Martin Lumber Company; Browo Rieharls Lumber Company; Wells Franch Corupauy, car builders; Perley, Lowe Co, lumber; Shoemaker is iligbee Lumber Company; John Spry Lumber Com pany; Edward Uines Lumber Com pany; Conway Co., oedar posts; V. C. li. I'almer, cedar posts; VVhitcomb Cedar Post Company; Liemens XIalske, manufacturer of dynamos. The burned district ia about six squares from east to west, and about three from north t.o south. The greatest portion of the district bounded by Blue Island avenue, Lin coin street, the river and Ashland avenue, was burned over and forty acres of lumber yards ara now noth ing but smoking embers. The fire was discovered by a watch man. Ue saw a blaze on the outside of the fence oa the east side of Lin coln street near a shiagle shed ba longing to 8. K. Martin Jfc Co. lie turned in an alarm, but before the tirst engives arrived the shingle shed was a mass of fl.imes, which had com municated to the surrounding lumber pile. The Martin yards ar 2,500 feet long by 300 wide, and the names orig inated in exactly the right spot for the strong nort hwest wind, whieh was blowing- at the time, to carry them through the entire length and breadth of the yards. The wind drove the flames so fierce ly that the lirst engines which ar rived were utterly helpless and call after call fur addith nai help was made until over fifty enjlnes and three fireboats were a work on the fire. It is not likely that even tney would have counted for much had not the wind died away after the lire had b--en burning fur an hoar. The course of the flam s was east aul southeast for the lirst forty-live minutes, and they literally picked up every tiling' in their pith. Piles of lumber, lath, shingles and cedar posts were swal lowed op wdh appalling' rapidity and for a time it seemed as though the finest lumber district in the city, which reaches a mile to the south, must be consumed. '1 he wind, however, sud denly changed at 9:33 o'clock and began to blow from the south and with much less violence than before. The flames started rapidly north again and burned back to a line level with the starting1 po at The sudden change in the direction of the flames canght several engine companies un prepared an 1 the men were compelled to run for their lives. No engines were abandoned, but three of th m bad ciose calls, horses arid men nar rowly escaping death. The fireboat Yosemite was at work in one of the slips when the direction of the Bra changed, and the long tongues of flames which shot over hsr male it necessary that she bu removed at once. When an effort was made to start her up it was found that her 6team was so low that the boat could not be moved with any rapidity, and the flames were gwoopiig down upon tier at a fearful rate.

The Hawaiian royalist commissioners, who reached the city Tuesday night, kept to their rooms at the Arling-ton moat of yes terday arranging for their plan of work while here. When a press re porter a&ked Mr. Wideman the pur pose of his visit here he replied: "I can not. tell you at this time. We have agreed not to divulge tbe nature of our mis don until we see Secretary Gresham, aud also possibly the president. We ex pect to see Secretary Gresham, and bhall go direct to the state depart ment and not teek the assistance of any intermediary, just the same as you would do had you any bus.ness there. The president has refused the plea for the restoration of the queen and why should we, who represent her, not have the privilege of calling on the secretary?" Mr. Widemjn said further that the commission had not come to Washing ton to ask for the restoration of the queen nor for the purpose of asking compensation for her because of her dethronement. In fact he (Wile man) had not heard of the report until he readied Washington. lie was somewhat chury in discuss ing1 the statement that has been printed to the effect that the commis sion would request the L'nited states to adopt a policy of non-interference in Hawaiian matters pending further developments. It was evident, how ever, that he felt deepiy on this subject, for he promptly replied, in answer to a questiou regarding it, that the resolution of the United States senate certainly meant non-interference, and later he made a remark to the effect that the present government was that of Mr. Stevens, formerly the American min ister. Secretary Gresham will see the Hawaiians as individuals, but it is un likely anything definite wdl come of their visit. TOO MANY DEATH LOSSES.

SCENES AT WATERLOO. incidents of the Famous Battle Show Ing Tiravery and Charity. At the battle of Waterloo a Scotch jolor sergeant, who had been mortally wounded, fell into a dit h. anl one of lis comrades, missing the flag, went straight to the ditch where he hud een the Highlander fall. Meantime the enemy wera charging vigorously. Uis comrade tried to disengage the (lag from the hands of the wounded Highlander, but as he could not suc ceed he hoisted the wounded man oa his shoulder, thus carrying both ser geant and flajr. The enemy, who were lharging, seeing this good deed, stopped suddenly, crying "Bravo! bravo, l'Ecossa s!" They did not iharge again till the brave man had rejoined his company. During the retreat which followed this battle two companies of fi -Id ar tillery stopped under orders near Loissons, at a village a littie distance from the main road. The mayor was sent for to make the cust unary dis tribution of food, etc., which, was cequisitione 1, that it might be done without confusion. It seemed only a moment bjforj all the bread was col lected, each inhabitant willingly giv ing his own part, and the mayor or dered that lots should ba drawn who should give a cow ta furnish meat for the soldiers. Tiie lot fell on a poor, old, ln3rm woman, who with some difficulty dragged herself forward, leaning on her stick, to spe:ik to the mayor. "This cow," she said, "which you wish to take from me is all I have; she is bth my means of living and my companion, and if you kill her there is nothing lft for me but to die, too." The mayor was inflexible, and tiie ax was raised to kill the c-iw ivh.-n the artillery men cried with one voice, "Whxt doas it signify? We will fancy this is Friday and fast most willingly." They returned the cow to the old woman, and sli3 led it away rith tears of joy and gratitude. Strikers Will Try to Stop Sunday Work. Fort Watse, Ind., Aug. 2. Some old discharged strikers oa the Pena eylvania and Nickel Plate lines de c'are that they would file affidavits against all the men employed on taese roads who work on Sunday.

Fort Wayne is very Puritanical on Sabbath observance under the new municipal administration. The Tile Plant. In Colombia there grows a plant whose popular name is the ink plant. Its juice is a ready made ink:. At first the writing looks reddish, but it be comes deep black in the course of a few hours. It will not harm steel pens; and letters written with it, if soaked in water, even for along time, will be quite legible when dry. The plants are poisonous, however, so that this natural ink will never take the place of the common or finger staining sort in daily us a. The Topeka Drug Co., ia opera house. i ROYAL ARCANUM.

It. or Penn sylvania, -a direct or of the Gettys burg Battlefield d y Memorial associa tion and secretary of the Pennsylva nia, Ohio and West Virginia Ed itorial association. c- w- HAZZARD. Bro. Hazzard entered the order In August, 18S0, as a charter member of Monongahe la council, No. 507, and at tho Institution of tho council was elected past regent. In 1SS3 ho was elected grand regent of tho grand council of Pennsylvana and re elected In 1S85. In 1892 ho was made su premo vice regent, which was followed In 1894 by his unanimous election to his pres ent position. Bro. Hazzard Is a thirty-second degree Mason and a Knight Templar. There are in Chicago 9,500 members of the order. John Kiley is grand regent of Illinois and II. B. Chandler grand secretary. Only $3,004 was realized on the first call, 17 years ago, while that made last April realized $207,000. New York has S3, 000 Arcanumitea and Pennsylvania 17,000. Tho highest number of assessments made in any year is 15. MASONIC. Object of the Order Are Not Concealed Temple Chips. Freemasons, haviner nothing to conceal except a few archaic ceremonious forma and their tokens of recognition and fel lowship, their universal language cheer fully and without rcocrve openly declares their objects, aims luul rnds and spread all their charges, constitutions and laws before the world, so thr-t they mip-ht be rrad and known of all men. Rev. W. W. Hill. In the state the largest liberty, based upon equality and brotherhood, in the church the truest catholicity, based upon tho word of God, which liveth and abid eth forever, and for the individual the grandest development of power, bared up on the highest ideals. These are all aided and fostered by the progressive principle of Masonry. Sir James McCain is grand commander and Sir Chnrles Bechtel grand recorder of the grand cominandery of New Jersey. The Royal Masonic Institution For Boys, London, has 20S pupils. Ascalon commandery, K. T. of Pitta field, Ills., has adopted a resolution fa voring the holding of a oonclave of Knights Templars of the world in New York city the last three days of the year 1900 and tho succeeding three days of 1901 to cele brate in a fitting manner the birth, life, death and resurrection of our Saviour Jesus Christ und the triumphs of tho Chiistian religion. They have also re quested tho grand commandery of Illinois to adopt the same at its next annual con clave. In Canada Knights Templars are ad dressed as fratrcs. This is dono to avoid conflict with legal sirs. Freemasonry in England is very pros perous. The increase of lodges and chap ters is remarkublc. The craft in Kentucky made an extraor dinary elfort in June in behalf of the Masonic home at Louisville. The result was satisfactory. Thero are members of tho fraternity who would eliminate from Freemasonry its symbolism of physical perfection. All such should leurn what that requirement really signifies. Bro. J. W. Staton, grand master of Ma eons in Kentucky, has issued a warning against begging circulars. The total returns of the recent festival of the Royal Masonic Instituto For Girls in London was over 800,000. UNITED WORKMEN. Decision on the Laws Governing1 Ilenefl ciaries Notes and Ciosfip.

The Pennsylvania membership should be particularly happy this year, one of their most popular members having been elevated to the post of supremo master. Supreme Master Benjamin D. Woolman is naturally a man of ability, whose many at tainments have piven him the confidence of all with whom ho comes in contact, and his elevation to tho head of tho order is a duo reward of merit. The grand master of Pennsylvania, Dr. George K. Pancoast, has been busy visit ins subordinate lodges and expresses him self pleased with tho prospects of the order and the individual lodge reports.

STATE JOTJRN'AIi, THURSDAY EVENIXG, AUGUST 13 1894. COHGRESSJUARHEL Two Classes of People Are Glad it Occurred. TI1033 lEaving Private Dills and tlie Stalwarts. AVIIILE IT WAITED. During Senate's Inaction the House Passed Little Bills. Washington Auk. 2. Special. No sooner had the senate got rid of its ill humor by taiVour it oil and coma to the sensible reol ition for a full and free con ference with t bti house than the absentee Democrats, -who had been nastily called in, began to string out for home again. They consist chiefly of such western and southern Democrats as have not yet been renominated and are not quite sure of it. "We can do more good in our districts than here," t"i?y ail said. '"Wo can pain more voters by fctayin? hero and seeing it through than by going home," said those already renominated. And both are right from their respective standpoints. It's an ill -wind that blows food to nobody, and two classes of people have great causa to be thankful f jr the quarrel between the houses and the lengthening of the session name ly, po.."sons who had private bills pendins and stalwart.; who were in doubt about their rc nomination. It is admitted that several members have been greatly helped at home by tfao recent turn of af fairs. "How did you coins to nominate B. when the deles-airs see med to bo against him awhile tv.;-k?" was asked of a -western wirepuller wl o had just arrived. "Sim plest thing in the world," ho replied. "Had we nominated any one else we thouiu have had to incloraO all this con gress and the a migration and run on that record, tut I. can run on his own record, and so we don't have to mention anything else." Wiiy They Unrriecl Away. The southern absentees have good reason to hurry away, for there are. squally times all the way d jwii the coast. Mr. Wise of the lliehmon 1 district, who had been tak ing things easily in tho belief that his calling and eloer.ion wero sur. was sudden ly called hm 3 tho other tiny fca ind that a vigorous and dangerous oppe.-iion had sprung v.p almost as suddenly as Jonah's gourd. Air. Marshall of the extreme south western Virginia district (Cyclone Jim") has had eom thing of a tussle from tho stai i, and it reached tho acute stage just whe:i the tarill" trouble was at tho worst. Mr. Uann of tho Raleigh di strict will have ta rttir.j at the end of six years' service, for the primaries have go no against him, and he has announced his withdrawal. Mr. Alexander of tho Charlotte (X. C.) district is a'.so likely to go out. Farther south and west rwioni. nations aro the rule, and if the Republicans and Populists do not upset present calculations nearly all the present rep re. entative3 from tho gulf states will rrturn to us. Mr. Mallory of Florida and Mr. Abbott of Texaa are fetill in some danger. The other tlasa who hava found this ill wiiid of tarhf quarreling greatly to their advantage have been tho men with claims and the applicants lor special relief under the pension laws. The house, having noth ing to do but wait on tho senate, amused itself by passing 0 or 30 little bills per day and incidentally overhauling onco i:ww tho mu oh bedeviled question of how far tho military record of a soldier ought to bo interfered with. House bill 203, to correct the inequalities arising under the act of July 27,1 SVO, is a matter of general concern, and tho discussion upon its pas sage brought out u great number of very curious taies. General Grosvenor said of tho bill he had introduced: 'It was a elsewhere a soldier had ovcr ftaid his furlough becauseof the extreme illness of his wife. He staid some months beyond the limitation of his furlough and was marki d a deserter. As soon as it was possible for him to return he started back to his command. On tho way clown to the Ohio river, at a point where the stage stop pa J fer dinner, ho went into a stream to bsv ho and was drowned. Under tho existing 1'iws his wile cannot havo a pension, although the soldier was on his way back to his Rgimcnt." IVusioxii For Children To this it was replied that hard cases make bad law, and that a sweeping act liko that pre posed would open the door to fraud. Nevertheless, with an amendment that it shciil 1 not apply in cases where ac tual desertion was proved, tho bill was p.i- ,I. Anchor till making things easier for claimants is that which allows fourth class post ma iters to administer tho oath to pensioners and their witnesses and make certificates thereof to the pension of fice. Several ether bills were reported from the committee on invalid pensions, and most of them passed with little friction till it came to the bill for continuing the pension of the children of deceased soldiers when t-uch c.iihiren are imbeciles. It was sho-.vn in the course of the debate that very many private bills had been passed to icn sion. such children, and it was claimed that the thing might as well be done by a general net. This, however, was an ob vious case of ixmsioning children for life in order to icliere counties of their poor c harges to that extent, and it brought out soir.e extremely flaming remarks from Mr. IIuTcheson of Texas. This in turn aroused Mr. Blair of New Hampshire from tho lethargy which seems to havo possessed him since lie left the' senate for the house, and tho two gentlemen, extremes in every -thiig, amused their colleagues at great length. T'hj bill passed. Sharp Practice. Taking it altogether, applicants forpen slcisa have .'uivd remarkably well during these days of rushing things. Another bill of great importance was slipped through tho house by shrewd management sumo people would call it a trick whilo nearly all the Republicans had gono over to hear the racket in tho senate. It is a measure wh ich has been before congress in one shape or another for 40 years, but only reached the stage for part- recrimi nation a few years after the war. It ap pears that a jout the time Arkansas came into the l"n .on and when there was a sur plus in the United States treasury that state borrowed $338,000 cf the Smithso nian tiust fund and issued therefor $1,000 bonds redeemable in October, 1S(U, and January, 1S68. When the first rot fell due, the collection business was bad in Arkansas, and when the secor-- fell due thi so called carpetbag govern ment was in. power, and money was scarce there. The general government had withheld other funds due the stite under general laws to an amount which Arkan sas officials claimed offset the amount due. The state hal also thrown all its finances Into hotchp t, and, to use a mild term, "converted" all its okhr indebtedness. After a deal of figuring the interior de partment, now concludes that the land in demnities due the state under various acts might offset the claim of tho government. LOOKS LIKE AN OUTRAGE. Th. Irrepr.ibln Deputy Marshal Stick. Mis root In it Again. C. D. Moore and C A. Moore, brothers, were this afternoon released from the county jail on their own recognizance by order of Judge Foster. The men were arrested in Ottawa last Monday night and put in the Shawnee cuuuty jail at noon on Tuesday, accused of violating Judg-e Foster's "injunction against strikers interfering with the operation of the Santa Fe railroad. If their story i3 tiue thair arrest waa an outrage. Their mother, they say, was leaning out of a window of her house talking in a joking manner with a railroad man who said ho was making only eighty-five cents a day. She remarked that that was poor pay for "scabbing.'' Ed Stilson, a machinist's apprentice, who waa passing, heard the remark, and turning to Mrs. Moore. swore at her and used the grossest insulting language. The sons then took a hand and a light with Stilson was the result, btilson was arrested and lined in police court for assault on the men and insult ing Mrs. Moore. Upon leaving the court room Deputy United States Marshal II L. Walker ar rested both of the young men without a warrant and Drought them to Topeka, where they claim they were put in jail without even commitment papers. When Judge Foster heard their siory he or dered their release. One of the men arrested lias never been employed on a railroad and the otiier has not been for some time, and still it is supposed they were arrested for violating Judge Foster's injunction. EXC U S ES I lAF WEK I MADE liy AtLmiiH Cliy llHilro.nl Men to A void Oaiiijj to Wurk. The receivers' side cf the Arkansas City reinstatement cases is being heard today before Judge J. B. Johnson, special master in chancery in the Santa Fe case. Superintendent F. J. liarirnen and W. Littletield of the Sauta Fe law depart ment represent the receivers and Con ductor 1. M. Hansen the men out of em ployment. Trainmaster G. F. IJawks of Arkansas City was examined this morn ing. Each case was taken up and dis cussed separately. Ail were brakemeu. The first case was that of A. J. Thorpe, who refused to go out on his run July 2, because of a mashed linger. The train master saw him on the afternoon of the fourth playing base ball. D. J. Henry said he was sick and had a doctor's certificate to show for it. C. W. Jones had a lame Lack, and re fused to go on the local. Said he would go on any other train. Philip P. Breunan refused to go out on the local freight because he said lie had sickness in the family. He also said he belonged to the A. li. U. James M. Hamlin was off because of sickness in his family, but in a pinch had been asked to take a six-hour run, which he refused to do, although it was not shown that an3r of his family were dan gerously ill. Wm. Thorpe refused to take the pile driver out, saying that he was off foe the Fourth, lie did not report till the 7th, when he was discharged. W R. Dillon was also called to go out with the pile-driver, lut refused to sign the call book. II. W. Dickinson seems to have been in hiding when the caller came for him and could not be found. When on the stand he refused to tell where he had been. N. II. George refused to go out on the pile-driver because he did not want to be called a scab. W. F. Yount refused to go out with the pile-driver for the same reason. W. A. Hanna did not want to be called a scab either and refuse to go on the special run. He would go ou his own Car, ha said. li C Hulick was in the same fix. He would go on his own car, but would not take the place of a striker. The mere refusal, the trainmaster holdi, to take any position when called, whether the position has been vacated by another or not, is sufficient cau-e for discharge. The failure to be in a place that the caller could find one, was alo enough to get a man his discharge. It was Judge Johnson's opinion that no raiirohd or person would wane in its employ a man that would refuse to do his duty as prescribed by the employer. The arguments were closed this after noon, arid Judge Johnson will leave to morrow for the east, where he will meet Receivers Reinhart and McCook, and probably Judge Caldwell. Ho will re serve his decision until he returns. ROBBED THE CHURCH. TlilcTel Enter the 1 atholic Church and Stent a Silver Vase.

D., announces that Budd Doble, who knows all about driving a trotting horse to victory has entered him self to run ia a race over a track on which the mud is sometimes very thick, very dirty, and very much given to flying in showers. Mr. Doble proposes to run a race on the uncertain course of politics, in which I there is no cash prize at stake. Budd Doble wishes to become Hon. Budd Doble by being a member of congress. He is in training", the telegram says, to j make the race for congress. j C Doble is about o years old now, and there is not a race irack of any note in the country over which he has not driv en to victory. On none of them haa any mud splashed his reputation. If he were in need of a campaign fund, though probably he is not, tnero are plenty of owners of horses who might very well chip in to make up a congressional stako j for Hon. Budd. It is not announced yet who will run in the race against Doble. The possible starters are not yet named but the chances are that Budd will be the favor ite from the beginning. If, as announced, Mr. Doble runs on a straight Democratic ticket, he is liable to have entered against him a straight Republican, a straight Prohibitionist and a straight Populist. Yet, even with these complications, there is hardly a man j with sporting blood in hi3 veins who j will not back Budd for a sure winner. THE JAP-CUINESE AVAR.

President Debs pre sided over the American Railway Union convention which met here today. The neighborhood of the hall was thronged with men, mostly work men, who were deeply interested in the meeting, but many of them were not del egates to the convention. The meeting began behind closed doors, and Presi dent Debs said before going in that tho session would probably continue in se cret, although some were in favor of ad mitting the public. Vice President Howard entered the convention hall just before the meeting came to order, lie said it was impossi ble to tell what matter might come be fore the delegates. The strike and" boy cott would, he said, of course, be the main subjects considered. There were about 250 delegates pres ent, representing 512 unions. A canvass of those present apparently showed that a majority favored declar ing the Pullman boycott off, and it was thought probable that such action would be taken. President Debs refused to ex press his views, but it was stated that he would not oppose the convention if it de sired to give up the fight.

Washington, August 2.- Forecast un til 8 p. tu., Friliy: For Kmas Fair, dightly warmer Friday; northerly winds becoming southerly. The Populists may not be very strong on sanity, Lut when it comes to sanita tion you have their Ions? suit If the Populists should carry Illinois and Indiana eastern eapi'al needn't be alarmed it, can come to Kansas then. The senate too has decided against the Rock Island in the towuaita trouble in Oklahoma but still the trains don't stop. It i3 a little stranga that the butchers Lave just now concluded to strike when they have been working so long for cut wages. Debs says he voted for Cleveland three times and he is ashamed of it In this llr. Drfbs has a great many ardent sym pathizers. The fin ling of the lost gold cask will relieve the exporters from the necessity of drawiug mure gold out of the treasury with which to supply its place. Tee Republican plan of not commenc ing the campaign until September, when it is cooler, may or may nt be good pol itics, but it is mighty good sense. Wnss one trouble h is been disposed of another seenn always t j arise. When congress really hs agreed on the tariff bill will it have seuse enough to ad journ? Debs declaration that he will never again become identified with strikes, but will advocate ouly the U3a of the ballot, shows that the strike hasn't been without its lessons. The spectacle of the otlice seeking the man, as was said to be the case in the Iowa convention, gives en idea of what those on the ius.de think of Democratic success this year. A crop expert hai give i it as his judg ment that there will be more wheat this year than last. What people are most interested in knowing howe ver is wheth er the price will be higher. Mr. Clevelaxij is said to ce disgusted with Senator Vilas' excessive adulation. That isn't to say the president doesn't like flattery, but he would rather not have it laid on With a shovel. Congressman Ptsun has concluded that he can't allord for business reasons, to neglect his own affairs for congress. He thinks if he looks after the pence, the dollars will take caro of themselves. If the Pullman employes are going tack to work at the saoie wages they received before the strike it simply means that they would rather barely eke out an existence hardly worth living than starve to death. After killing a thousand or two Chinese and sinking China's largest war vessel, Japan formally declares war. Feeling sure now by the experiment that she can whip China, she feels safa in de claring war. Ex-Governor Boies said yesterday in speaking of the Democratic pHrty,"There is no middle ground in which it can cast anchor." This is either a mixed figure or else Mr. Boies refers to sailing in a prairia schooner. The indifference of Coxey to the fate of the Common wealers since he has satis fied his craving for notoriety with them and got the congressional nomination is only what was foretold by his riding in a carriage while they walked. If the crank who visited the White house really wanted to g et in he m ida a great mistake by carrying laborer's tools with him. Had ha had u few nice crisp bonds protruding from his pocket his re ception might have been different. JTAXSAS YIELDS A PLENTY. Kansas in common with other western States has suffered considerably from the ht dry winds cf last week. Rains are coining now, but it is feared, too late, in soma parts of the state to save much o! the corn crop. In her crops aa in othei iisttera, Kansas is a state cf wonder fu txtrexaei. ither her corn ani wheat overflow all bins and heaps the ground, to the distraction cf the railroad com panies who seek to carry it eastward befora it spoils, or else the cribs are empty. A year or two ago, Kan?as turnsd up ber cornucopia and poured 7J.OJ0.00U bushel of wheat into the worlds lap. This year sha brings t ut 23, OJ.000; and that's too much with wheat at forty cents a bushel. The slim corn crop may cause some trying times in western Kansas counties, and the eastern Kansas country, where we can still count on a good, big yield, may have to do something for her mure unfortunate half this coming fall and winter. If there i9 destitution, however, it can not be laid up agaiust the hot wind and the scarce rains entirely. If the farmers of Kansas had been getting anything like fair prices for their wheat and com and cattle daring recent yeirs i when they had plenty of each to sell, they would not now suffer from a single unpropitious season. It is because they have not been receiving their fair share of the return for their labor that they are hard up. Kansas produces enough in good years to t.da her easily over the bad ones. But when a farmer has to sell his wheat for almost what it costs to raisu it and has to pay the interest on the mort gage with three times as many bushels of wheat as when the mortgage was contracted, then it is easy to see Low a single hard year may reduce him to the sharpest penury. If the currency of the country Ladu't been tampered with in such a way that the producer is robbed just as feloniously as if some one had inserted his hand m his pocket and taken the silver dollars out; if the representatives of the Rjth scnilds had not put their thumb and lin ger into congress and controlled the financial legislation there; if Grover Cleveland and his Wall street allies had not abrogated the Sherman act, perhaps the farmers of Kansas would have mo.iey enough now to enable them to withstnn 1 a whole or partial crop failure. It isn't what a man earns, it is what he eaves that makes him rich, is an old saying. If the Kansas farmers could have saved anything at the paltry prices they re ceived last year and the year Lef jre. there would need be no fears now. If i there is suffering in Kansas this year it is because Kansas has been robbed in her years of plenty. JUKIE.S DitAWX For tb Next Term ot lha I strict and Circil.t C.urU.

T.T.WOODPtUFF'SIDEA IT WAS THAT NIGHT RAILROAD PAS SENGER3 NEED NOT LOSE SLEEP. Wbter fl'apirr and George 31. Pulimai Took It Up When Woodruff Dropped II and Brought the Sleeping Car to It Pro cut Stato of Perfection. A great deal more than the usual fusount of attention has been bestowed cf late upon the sleeping car toecaus cf the strika of the Pullman employee! 1.11 d tho sympathy uprising that fol lowed among the railroad men lata it Juno aud interfered with travel and transportation through the first half, ol July. The facts in tho early history of th sleeping car are not easy to obtain to a certainty because almost every printed account of the invention varies e-esen tially from every other one. For in stance, Tho Railway Age iu 1803 pub WEBSTER WAGNER. lighed a history cf the sleeping car In Avhich it asserted that the first patent was taken out in 1S59 by John H. Mor rison of Detroit. The car was built with reference to storage capacity rather than comfort. A central partition divioled tho car, narrow seats were ranged along the partition on each side, and three tiers of bunks were let down at night. Thomas McMill of Philadelphia and John Danner of Canton, O. also took out patents that year, according to The Hailway Age. Nowhere in this histor ical sketch appears the name of Thomaa T. WToodruff or Webster Wagner, and Pullman's name is dragged in quite in cidentally. Yet the world is indebted to these throe men for the privilege of sleeping in comfort when traveling. The debt is one of gratitude and not of money, for all three got rich out of it. The earliest sleeping cars of which I have been able to find any mention were opsrated in the thirties over the Cumberland Valley railroad between Cumberland and flarrishurg. They were so crude and uncomfortable that they were finally taken from the rails, and then the sleeping car idea practically slept until WoodruU took it np. Woodruff was a native of Water town, N. Y. In fact, all three of the early promoleis of sleeping cars were born in tho Empire State. It may be that it was the combination of New York nativity and cultivation of the sleeping car notion that caused them all to wear chin whiskers cf a peculiar cut during the period of their greatest prosperity. Certainly sonw influence or influences worked to that entL While yet a young man Woodruif removed to Indiana and there became master car builder of the Alton and Tt-rre Haute railroad. Perhaps when a boy ho had ridden on one of the awful sleeping cars in use at one time in Pennsylvania. At all cvent, he Lad a notion that he could make a car in which passengers could sleep with comfort, and ho r.rged upon his employers to lot hun build one for them. They professed to believe that ho had a good thing, but they would not put tip. They finally, iike enough to get rid cf him, gave him letters to some eastern men. Armed with these, Wood ruff went to Rome, N. V., and there in the office of Janr: Tillinghast got up a model of his ear. Tiliiughast was then in the employ of the Rome and Watertown road, and he, like the man agers of the Alton and Terre Haute, said he thought the scheme a great one, but neither would he advance any cash, and it was not until Woodruff got the idea before Car Bnilder Watson of Springfield, Mass., that a full sized car was built. When the car was finished, Woodruff ran it for a litrle time over the New York Central and the Rome and West ern railroad liues, charging 50 cents over and above- the regular fare for a r GEORGE M. PUIXMAJJ TS 1S72. night's sleep. Then Woodruff ran hia car to Cleveland, Cincinnati and other cities of the then far west, and every where it was considered a most wonder ful thing. This particular car was final ly sold to the Ohio and Mississippi rail road and was worn out on the rails of that line. The extension of the Wood ruff sleeping car service was rapid after that, and by 1SC0 the first car was built in 1856 or 1857 passengers who were willing to pay the standard price of a half dollar extra for a bed might sleep and travel. la tho meantime Webster Wagner, a i La XV .r-i fa's .y $Xt '.-v.-;. freight egent of the New York Central railroad, became much interested in th WoodruU cars, helped their inventot and fintdly bought the right to build and use them on the Central lines. It is from Wagner's establishment, small at first, that the only company now a serious rival of the Pullman corporatioL has grown. Both Woodruff and Wagnei got rich as "iches were once counted, and both were killed in railroad accidents. Bit Mr. Wagnor died worth much mon ey, while Mr. Woodruff died poor. It was in 1857 that Pnllmau's atten tion was first seriously directed to the Bleeping car problem. He had been mov ing buildings in Albion N. Y., hao made a few thousand dollars out of tht operation and was going to Chicago tc move more buildings and make mnrt money. Before he went west he had tc go to some place a night's journey dis tant from Albion, and he rode in one ol Woodruff's or Wagner's cars. It was a wretched affair compared with tho won derful wheeled palaces that today glide easily and noiselessly over modern rail roads, and the young building movei could not sleep. As he lay and was buffeted the long night through visions camo before him cf what could be done to make the cai ride easier and in the way of furnishing more commodious quarters to passen gers. It was during that ride that ht devised tho six and eight wheeled trucks that are now found under sleeping cars not only, but most high class day coaches, and which contribute so mate rially to smooth riding. He also resolv ed that night that if he ever built a Bleeping c;tr it should be roomy and not constructed, a3 were the early Woodruff and Wagner cars, with an eye almost solety to packing in as many passengers as possible. These old cars had three rows of bunks on each side, and wliile each furnished seats for only about 50 passengers there were bunks for 70. It was not till 1864 that Pullman built his first car He had materially "increased his basket and store" rais ing and moving buildings in Chicago and 'devoted a few years to gold mining at Pike's peak and in its vicinity and was in the prime of his manhood when he began at the bottom in the car.er which was to make him one of the rich est of men at the end of tho century and spread his name to the uttermost parts of the earth. This latter is literally true, for the Chinese have just introduced Pullman cars into the Celestial Empire. Pullman was in better shape to begin than was Woodruif when he began. Woodruff was poor and had to borrow his capital; Pullman had bis own. Woodruff tried to get his car up as cheaply as possible; Pullman studied how to Hpend money in its construction Woodruff tried to satisfy passenger 'Ay crormi! m. rrttMAx ix 1S9. with as little as they could get along with; Pullman strove to give them so much that they could- not ask for more at least so much that they could not find more in any other cars. It took Pullman a whole year to build his first car, and when it was done it had cost $18,000, but never was like sum more wisely expended. From tho second trip its first service was in Lincoln's fu neral trip from Chicago to Springfield, Ills. the car paid a handsome profit. Pullman himself used to make trips on this car and talk with the passengers for the purpose of getting points as to its possible improvement. Some of the early newspaper outgiv ings upon- the first sleepers are interest ing reading in tho light of present de velopment the original idea. Said a clergyman n Kansas in a letter to the Oermantown Telegraph of Sept. 7, 1856: "Improvement marks every year among our enterprising eastern people, visible to the eye of the annual western visitor. If the Atlantic cable is a fail are, the sleeping cars are not, as many a weary visitor can attest. Who would have thought a year since of going to bed at Johnstown and waking up in tho neighborhood of Hollidaysburg' Fifty cents will now sleep a passenger in horizontal posture upon a comfortable bed without even being aroused by the punch of a conductor und tho annoying Show your ticket, 6ir!' The comfort that the reverend gentle man wrote of would hardly be consid ered such by the modern ti-aveler. Th Ehelfs which composed the bunks ai the fittings were of the plainest possi character. Tho cars were lighted kerosene lamps suspended from ceilL two feet lower than the ceiling of t present cars. Tho heating in winter was furnished by a stove set near the center of the floor, and those who slept next to it were apt to be roasted, while occu pants of the end bunks were in danger of freezing on cold nights. It would seem that the sleeping and palace cars of the present day have reached or nearly reached perfection. Certainly in lavishness cf decoration, In extravagance of luxury, they cannot be improved. Some cf the latest built cars are almost barbaric in their splen dor and oppressive in their upholstery and heavy drapery. ML L Dexteb. An Old Blan'a Adventure. Alexander Brown lie of Tumut, N. S.

'The iudus res of the people are of more importance than are their politics, and soloiiij as thee iud istries coutrolled by individual owners were distributed throughout the country, governmental interference aud supervision was not needed was not derm, tided. But a change had occurred; the laborer who might ouce have applied to a thousand shops, is now restricted to a score in which he must fl.id work or be .die and hungry. Confronted with a great cor poration, which, without reatraiut, is privileged to dictate terms, labor tinds itself helpless for self protection aud preservation; and in this condition inde pendent manhood aud the nobility of l.ibor becomes u farce aud a sham. Da pendent aud discontent become the rule, while hunger, vioieuce aui anarchy fol low discharge. 'To iuveign against labor troubles, socialism and atjareuy, without seenin to remedy the causes that produce theui is short sighted. lt is not the political system against which complaint arises but it is the great overgrown maustrial system, manage ment of which, unchecked by law, 13 concentrated iu a few hands, dominating the terms upon tr ';ii labor must depend for its daily subsistence. "The contest between corporation em ployer and labor is a const. snt miuace to tae peace and prosperity of society, hs it is one of uui entrained human sel Lis tines.-, manifested on the oue aide by the cunning of the Wicicesea, aud upon the oiher by strikes and violei.ee. "No question is of mure importance than the adjustment of relations between thee forces, employer and employe. And while regulation of tenure of ser vice and schedule of wages between cor porations of a quasi-publ.c character and employes, would be usurpation of what has been tr iditionally conceded the rights of employer, yet pro eciton to labor aud the iuturets of society would justify such a departure from previous tu.toms." After discuss'ng the faults of the pres ent financial system, Mr. lieily contin ues: "iJovemment ha never assumed that because nature gave to oue ruau more muscular power than to another, that therefore she iuteuded that the stroug should despoil the weak, but pioiectiou I rum vioieuce has always been guaran teed the weak; but the airoug ;tim ouce a menace, has been superseded by the cuuniug of the brain handling improved app.iances for wealth getting. Hence t .e priue.ple that secured protection aainst the strong arm should be invoked n jw to secure protection against the cuu nine of avarice. "The contest Is industrial pursuits, jeopardizing the public welfare, has be come so inieuse that a demand is grow ing for a standing army of European proportions to U lster up vicious indus trial system which, whila accummulat ing millions in the IiMnds of the corpora tions operating it, leaves the laborer of the shop poorly paid and discontented, while the staples of ar. culture for a de cade have been selling each year at low ering range of values leaving the farm ers to inquire, what interest us has in the gold standard, protective tariff or the millions of corporation wealtli." Mr. Kelly concludes: "The Populist party and kindred labor organizations, with all their mistakes and defects con stitute the only political organization to d iy looking for a remedy calculated to save the government from confusion or the domination of force. The contest, as I view it, is between the rights aud priv 1 -ges of the citizen aud corporation dmination.

Says tbe Coming Winter Wilt 11. Wor.e Thau Latt. Rev. B. L. Smith was asked by a Jocb mal reporter today to point out the spe cific caes of poverty alluded to iu his recent speech before the crusade meet ing. "Nearly all the cases of destitution," he said, "will be found east of the Santa Fe tt-acks. It is the class of unskilled labor that is suffering. The mm who cannot do any thing well is the nun who is out of work, and whose family 1 suixering. Haul a load of potatoes several miles aud the little ones will come to the top every time, and that is the way it is with men. "I know that there is more poverty and more families in actual want now than ever before at this time of the year, and during the coming winter there will be more suffering in '1 opeka than we have ever known, and the people should be prepared to meet such a condition. "I know of one family on east Fifth Btreet, of five small children, the eldest being but 12. 1 he husband is a drunk ard, and if he makes anything it goes for drink, and his family is left to suffer, though he is particular about the kind of work he takes. The mother does washing when she is able, and her health is poor and what sue earns will not keep the Tamil. This family has been helped some by the associated charities and Poor Com missioner llule. "On Locust street lives a family, and both husband aud wife are blind. The husband went away to try to make a liv ing, and it is supposed died in Texas, as he has not been heard from for a long lime. The woman is very poor and has to depend on charity for her support. 'Then there are two families on Law rence street. In one of the families the man is paralyzed aud the wife earns a little money occasionally, but they could not live without help from outsiders. Iu the other family the busuaud has a team, but it is more of a burden than anything else, as he can find nothing to do. He seems willing to take any kind of work. "There is a carpenter on East Teuth street who has been out of wor for a loug time and who is willing to work at anything. 'The Santa Fe men who belong to the unskilled labor, are many of them in hard straits, but the higher class of laborers are all right. -Iu all these cases it is the survival of the huest. These cases are only some of those 1 have been asked to visit." A COFFIN ABOVE GROUND. JL bicht In III. A y u in Graveyard That Siartrd 1. ll 1 g aiiory. People living out in Auburndale, who have had occasion to pass the insane asy lum graveyard, near the river, have had awful thiugs to tell each other regarding the management of that feature of the asylum. 'I tie awfuluess of these stories exceeded the awfuluess of any of the awluls which have aroused the 1. ut skirls of Topeka since the gorilla escaped. Eariy oue morning a man who works at the water supply station was going to to work when he uot ced one of the little mounds that marked the resting place of some uuforlunate lunatic had been dug open, and an empty coffin was beside the grave. Laier iu the day another man re marked to him, "1 believe sonubjJy must be robb.ng graves at the asylum cemetery. Twice lately I've seen empty coffins and graves dug open." The man replied that he had noticed the same thing, and thus the story started. A large part of the population of Auburndale within a period of several weetcs noticed an empty grave and a vacant coffin that seemed to bear witness to some outrage. It became the general supposition that some one was robbing the asylum cemetery of its con tents with bold regularity. But a few days ago people began to notice that there was no empty grave it was tilled up and the empty cotSu that had cast a sepulchral gloom over the two-acre lot was uot there, 'lheu the explanation came. Several asylum employes were usied but knew nothing about it. Finally one was found who kuew about it. Au iusaue patient named Douglas who lived iu D.crfLinsoti county had d.e l, and after being buried was exhumed for interment at tiis old home. Alter this was done the grave was left empty anl the co2in was left unclosed in the open air for fully six weeks. Of course it was a case of negligence on the part of the asylum. The numerous Auburudale peo ple who had seen the open grave ha 1 each seen the same one at different times. A DEMOCRATIC RALLY. A Big Meeting to lie H-ld at Hamilton 1111 Saturday Ewniog.

After cleaning them wipe them well ar d lay them up on a plate with a tablospoonful of melt ed butter and a little pepper.

Henri Sehmohl, the valiant champion of women in France and fcrumlress of The Avant Courriere, haa won what may be considered as a pre paratory victory that bodes well for the eventual success of her campaign in the cause of feminine refurr.i. M. Cioirand, a deputy and a lawyer by profession, has just bro'Tcht in a bill embodying the two essential reforms which The Avant Courriero i intended to further. As will be remembered, these two all important reforms are the repeal of tho law by which no Frenchwoman can act as witness to any legal deed and tho passing of a French married women's property act.

And fo the cr-ptains who had wives and. babies physically fit to go gladly paid for the privilege. Several cf the families that will epend this and other summers and win ters in the arctics are well known in San Francisco. Captain Grec-a of tho Alexander has with him his wife, who is the woman of the party with an arc tic experience. On tho Jessie II. Free man are Mrs. Sophie Porter and her email daughter Dorothy. Mrs. Siierman is with her husband oil tho Beluga, and Captain Weeks of tho Thrasher has for passengers his wife and baby son Bert. Captain Porter's little girl will have the best time ever a little girl had. She will bo plunged np to her soft curly bangs in the delight-; of things to play with. She is a maid of 4 years, and she is going along to accumulate more win- iiAnr eert w;i;:ks. tors. She will le;un geography without ever knowing that she is learning it. There won't bo any lulers, and tiiere won't be any maps, rind she will be Fparc-d the telling how many capes and points there are up tlu ve. She will have us a magical cl.jeet lesson the phenome na of that strai ge iuiid, where they have toboggan slides all the year round. She will wear the .'mallest of sal ;kin Backs and altogt ther will have ureal Alice in Wonderland time of it. Cap tain Weeks' little boy Bert will have an experience like the litilo boy in "Wa ter Babies," only if is to le hoped that the seals won't call him an "t ft, like that little boy, because lie isn't an "eft," oidy the plninpw-r of baby boys and the youngest white person to enter the Arc tic ocean. He will see the "whale that is big of bone and large of tail" and be able to tell the biggest fish story that ever was. San Francisco Chronicle. IJahy Army For a Baby lvinj;. A pretty and ingenious "toy" has been provided for his majesty Alfonso XIII of Spain, the youngest monarch in Europe, and the little king has been in itiated into military li'o by taking the command of a battalion of troops vary ing in age from 0 to 8 years. There are 700 of these baby soldiers and they wear the blue uniform and red cap of the "miquelet" Spanish regulars. The weapons have all been specially made to Kuit the infant requirement. All the different classes aro represented in this battalion, from the small son of (icner al Tolaviega down to the sons of labor ers and artisans. The drummers aro per haps the most amusing aud picturesque members of the party. Their enthusi asm for their work is boundless, but the organization is strictly according to rule, and an officer of the, Sr.n Sabas tian garrison has been drilling the re cruits and their officers for a month past- Westminster Gazette. Kutli aud IlVr 1 ",iii (m. One day, shortly before her mother took her to Gray Gables, little Ruth Cleveland was on the grounds back of the White House. It was nearly dusk, and the president was with her. She held the end of a string in her hand. The other end held captive a toy bal loon. While playing she fell and let g-i of the string, and the balloon sprang upward so quickly that even the presi dent, who jumped for it, couldn't catch it. Ruth picked herself up and saw tho balloon sailing over the big trees. The president stood by and waited to con sole her when she should give way to grief. But she didn't cry. She sim ply eyed the toy till it melted into a epeck and disappeared, and then, with a sigh, said, half to herself: "Oh, well, let Jesus have it." J NEW FANCIES FOR CHILDREN.

The center picture repres jnta a blouse shaped coat of shepherd's check. The boy's suit is of fine blue cheviot, with blouse and knickerbockers. The blouse is open over a linen shirt witli fancy collar. CHEMICALS IN LAUNDRY WORK. The Analytical Chemist and His Many liuincd Garments. Probably every person who has cloth ing "done up" at the laundries, public mid private, has at one time or another probably frequently had some arti cle come home in tatters, eaten up by gome corrosive material used by the laundry people to save labor. If yon make complaint, you are told with much show of indignation that "no chemicals, nothing but pure soap and water," are used in that laundry. You know on each occasions that the party is lying, but you have no recourse except to change laundries, and this is usually swapping the devil for a witch. In fact, you feel that you have been "done up" quite as effectively as your clothing. It is comforting to know that at last chemical ingenuity has shown itself equal to the task of proving the use of corrosives in tho laundry, and that at least one laundry concern has come to grief. The hero of the affair was M. A. Schlumberger. who, for all his Teutonic name, is a Frenchman, residing in Paris. He was recently consulted by a party who had been imposed on by his laun drymau until forbearance ceased to be a virtue. Brand new tablecloths, nap kins, shirts, etc., would go to the laun dry whole and return in tatters. On looking at the articles the chem ist thought that they had been submit ted to the action of javel water. He therefore made a weak solution of meth ylene blue and placed one of the corrod ed articles in it In a moment all around the burned spots the blue color fixed it self in the mo.-t intense manner, while the other ports were colored weakly. Tiiis was proof positive that his suspi cions were correct, aud the courts sub sequently justified him by making the laundrvman settle for the articles de stroyed. The n?st case was a little harder. Tho articles Fent to tho laundry were entirely mt, but on being returned were found to be eaten in spots. The test first named would not work in this case, and since there was no evidence of chlorino the chemist concluded tiiat an acid had been used. After trying two or three reagents he had recourse to a weak solution of brasiicin (C16 Hi 2 Oo). He scattered a few drops of this around the burned or eroded spots and had the pleasure of seeing the rose color changed to yellow, showing that an acid had been used. Subsequently it was shown that the clothing, having been thrown carelessly into some recep tacle, had become spotted with iron rust, and this latter had been removed by oxalic acid. Tho acid had been care lessly used end had eaten out the fabric wherever it was applied. In the absence of any statute specific ally bearing upon the subject, and in the presence of the fact that tho use by the laundries of javel water, liquor cal cis chlorinatae and other like prepara tions, oxalic acid, etc., is almost uni versal, aud that the laundries, without exception, disclaim the use of these cor rosive and mischievous preparations, it would seem that the offenders might be reached under the statute punishing the obtention of money under false pretenses or made to pay for goods thus destroyed under those regulating the mischievous and careless destruction of property. With the chemical means of providing the olfense at hand, a conviction ought to follow. The editor of The National Druggist of St. Louis will give his serv ices as chemical expert free to the first party who will undertake a prosecution. National Druggist. Temperature and Brain Work. The influence cf the weather on the brain is a subject which awaits investi gation and will repay it. Most people feel the influence of dull days, east winds and extreme cold on their spirits and energies, mental or physical. An arctic cold aud a tropical heat are un favorable to literary composition, for ex ample, and we speak of the cold "freez ing our wits," an expression which is net altogether figurative, but rests on a common experience. Goethe found that his capacity for mental work de pended on the height of the barometer, and other instances of meteorological in fluence on tho mind could be collected from the writings of celebrated men. Suicide occurs most frequently in sum mer, perhaps owing to heat and exhaus tion, and not, as misht be supposed, in winter. Loudon Globe. The Discovery of Olass. There is little or nothing known with certainty in regard to the invention or discovery of glass. Some of tho olde- specimens are Egyptian, and the a;:-, of certain glass vessels made by tlui; people which are now kept in the Brit ish museum is believed to be at least 4,194 years, dating back to the year 2300 B. C. Transparent glass was first used about 750 B. C. the credit of this latter discovery being given to the Phoenicians. Tho old story of its aeci dental discovery is familiar. Merchant who were resting their cooking pots on blocks of subcarbouate of soda found glass produced by the union, under heat, of the alkali and the sands of the des ert. St. Louis Republic. Injun Too His for His Cell. There is trouble on the Umatilla In dian rt servation because the cells in tho callaboose are too small. The other day Swichlick, one of the tallest of the gov ernment wards on the reservation, was arrested, and he could not enter the door of the guardhouse erect and in the morning Xvas found curled up like a spiral spring because the coll was not long enough for him to lie straight in.

The IfflEQBQR SMCRIFSCl rs J CTtTI trTITf A T T rS USittHDiikuauu was the daugh ter of a hot-tempered widower, with whom sha lived in the pret ty town of Don tan. She was a live ly girl, and un der eng-a(?ement to be married to a deserving and promising' you nj lawyer, named Theodore Mans field, the son of a physician. Every thin? was in fine trim for the weddinjr, the bridal trousseau almost completed, and even the ring- bought, when an awful thing- took place. Mr. Michaud and Doctor Mansfield, the father of his prospective son-in-law, while playing a. game of domin oes, fell into a quarreL At first, really a polite one, then an angry, then a furious one. Doctor Mansfield called Mr. Mich aud a cheat, and Mr. Michaud called the doctor a liar. The doctor gathered the dominoes in his hands, and was about to hurl the n at the head of Mr. Michaud- lie thought better of it, however, caught up his hat, stuck it on his head side ways, crammed his fists into his pock ets and, without an "adieu," marched out of the house, calling .his son to follow him. The end of the affair was a dissolu tion of the matrimon al engagement between Theodore and Rosine. In vain Theodore remonstrated. In rain Rosine wept. The old gentle men were not to be moved by the unhappiness of the young folks. All the deeds that had been drawn up were canceled. The little house which had been furnished for the bride and groom wa.3 let to a family temporarily sojourning in the place. and the lovers were forbidden to speak another word to each other as long as they lived. At last, having bribed Rosine'a maid to keep his secret, he confided to the hands of the girl a letter to her mistress, in which he beggad her to steal from the house that night and wait under the pear trees besi-ie the garden wall, until he should come to her. Rosine, who had never disobeyed her parent in her; life, felt as guilty as though she were about to commit a murder, when she stole out of the side door to keep the rendezvous; but, nevertheless, her heart beat high with hope at the thought of meeting Theo dore once more, and when at last she saw through the darkness a form gradually rise above the wall, and proceed to ascend by means of a rope which was fastened on the other side, she with difficulty refrained from screaming aloud. "Theodore!" she whispered; oh, Theodore! my Theodore! That it should be wrong for me to meet theet that we. who were once betrothed lovers, should come to this!" But the next moment he had caught her hands and kissed them, and sho forgot all but that they were together. This was the first meeting, but it was not the last. Night after night, when the old gentleman was asleep, snoring peacefully, Theodore and Rosine sat side by side, more familiar ly than they ever had done before, in the garden unler the psar trees, while Nannette, the maid, kept watch outsi-ie the little side door. All this had been going on for soma time, when one night Roine took her usual place to wait for Theodore. She heard the stealthy steps as usual. She saw the lithe form mount the wall and stand in full relief against the golden moon, just at that moment rising. Then a faint cry of horror fell upon her ear, and he vanished m 3 0 2 v3i' 1 FEET. PTtOTTK OW TIIE FEOOrt. from her sight. There was a start ling and ominous thud upon the earth without, a groan and silence. Theodore had slipped and fallen to the ground. For some moments he remained insensible: Rosine, nearly mad with terror, stood wringing her hands within the garden. Her maid, who had seen all, hur ried down the path. Neither of tho girls knew what was best to do. At last, Nannette, a stout young girl, clambered up into the largest-pear tree, and managed to .get her chin oa a level with the wall. She could not see anything below, but she heard a movement. "Mr. Mansfteld," she whispered, "SDeak if you possibly can. My mis tress is nearly frightened to death." A faint voice replied: "Give my love to your mistress, I am not much hurt, but it will be best for me to go horn? now. I think there has been noise enough to attract at tention. Then the two girls rac indoors, Eosine In a terrfbla state of eg-itu" 3he knew that Theodora bad xtore injured than he would c if And thia Indeed was trua. lis t broken his arm, and felt a deaf i 7 falntness creeping over him. II s hope was to get far enough fro house of old Michaud. to prevent suspicion of the manner in whiivi had met with the accident; and at t Erst turning, be left the street t r hurried on, hoping to procure so ftssistance before he lost the power speech and motion. At last, amid the darkened i 3ows, he saw one in which a 1 -burned. Drawing nearer, la sv that the door stood open, and hear! lome noise within. His strength wj nearly gone. He made use of v?L t remained to stagger under the door way, and fell prone In the hall, at the foot of the stairs, just as an oil man in a night-gown, with a lamp ia one hand, and a poker In the other, rushed down them, shouting flt' iu top of his voice: "Thievesl Murder! Help! Police!" This old man was Hector Grimm, a reputed miser, who had just be for wakened to find two masked men ia the room, one of whom held hit while the other plundered his cash box. After much stru-lin;j be !u 1 succeeded in dealing one of the ru -cals a heavy blow with a cudi-l, which he always kept within re if i and had been knocked senselesi !n return. When he came to himself 1 was in perfect darkness, and it Via taken him some time to strike a light: but, to his great joy, when ha ha I done so he found, as he suppos" one of the robbers lying wo a tide 1 is his hall-way. The old man's shouts soon fcrou!. assistance, and he told his story a? people usually do, in a manner which reflected the most credit upon h in self. "But this is Theodore ManGel!, the son of old Dr. Mansfield," crip I one of the assembled group, "lie i no robber, sir." "Nevertheless, it is all ss I mU," declared Hector Orimme, And on his word, tho- poor wounJe .1 Theodore was carried to prisou. It was some time before he wndr stood the charge that had been ma against him, but when ho did, he at once formed a noble resolution. Suf for what he might, shivuifj, i im prisonment, whatever it mijhl be, he would guard Rosin'- honor. No one should ever know th.it it was in endeavoring to meet her alone at midnight, in the garden cf her father's house that he Ea l r.et with this accident. The day of the trial came tit last. The court was crowded. Hector Grimme was ready tu swear to his story. The policemen and neighbor-., were witnesses to the fact that Theo dore had been fount', lying insensible at the foot of the miser's staircase t i the night of the robbery. The prisoner himself IT.' only h position and goo-J character In his f,t or. Not a word would he utter i:, his own behalf, save a simple 8 tion of his innocence. Dr. Mai -was weeping- like a child. Mr. Mi aud, who h.d always liked the fellow, and whose heart even soft to his old friend in his afllietioQ, w:: very much moved. The pr r only was calm All was over. Nothing more r be said. The final proceedings wer about to be taken, and none believ that the prisoner could possibly c cape tho sentence of the law, wi.fi suddenly there was a stir near t1. door, and the crowd parted to adroit two persons, who forced their wny toward the bench on which the jai sat. At the sight of the pair, Mich:, I started to his feet. Bsferre fthe t.'.r her veil back, he recognized LU daughter. Rosine. The prisoner also uttered a low c r Disregarding them both, the girl 8 vanced toward the judge, whom s knew by sight- Ignorant of all fori ot law, she only thought of savi; -I Theodore, whose motive for silen she quite understood; and, fenif .l. lest she should be too late, she ip at once. "Sir," she. said, "I have corn- as .0 witness for Theodore Manst.el.l. I know how he met with his acei l -r 4, and I know the motive for his sileoo.

Mr. Michaud gave a crv and star. forward. Doctor Mansfield also tit tered an exclamation as be sprang t, Michaud's side. "We might have known," L j t 1 "We were young on." The miser, re-examined, own"! tho fact of having been ins-?nsib!-j f 6ome time, and coDfes.se I th it he I!

The autumn bel, skirt -will be fuller and widtn- than the original model, but exactly liko it iu otbx-r respects. Women who have filendc-r, rounded .fignros are quite rady to adopt the re vivi d fashion of lac ing the bodice iu the look. Braiding will be a very favorite gar niture iu rich dnses next season as well as on tailor gowns and utility cos tumes. Brilliant rd has come to the fore again for country ccst-nnies and will be worn all summer :n wool fabrics such ad wiling, ehalli, rashrjtero, etc. Tho now p jplin co:its take the place of the dress waists. Horno are vandyked on the sides in cU-ep points, but are shorter tUan any of the coats worn a year ago. The cool, deliehvus gossamer gowns of muslin crape, orjsjidie and lace have jnstnow: btaoncij.l e fleet upon society. The very appearance of them seems to lower the temperature and dispel some of the heat and humidity. Three dominant features will rule in autumn dress tho coat, the pointed bodice and the graceful radingoto or princess dress, the latter so transform ed by its elaborate draperies and adjust ments as to almost lose its identity.

'I believe in the principles of the Re publican party and in iaw and order, not only by way of sur pressing riot, rebel lion and disorder, but in the conduct of the party which we all lovesj dearly, for in no other way can a government of the people, by tho people and for the people be maintained. "1 have hesitated to believe that any considerable number of the lei.ders, so called, of the Republican party hold any different views from my own, but since I came to the convention city detailed re ports of the methods used in favor of John T. Rich have come to my knowl edge and I ara .ippalled at them, and I know that I speatc the sentiment of the great masses of the Republican party when I say that they are such methods A3 the intelligent, loyal citizens of Michi gan will not endure without a protest." TO OVERTHROW POPULISM. A Connecticut Man Huh Traveled Through TUrae titern States. Nkw York, Aug. 2. John "W. Lowe of New Haven, is vice president of the Con necticut State League of Republican clubs. He is on his way home alter at tending the national convention in Den ver. Tonight, in the Fifth Avenue hotel, he said to a correspondent: "Within a fortnight, I have traveled through Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas, and the Republicans in those three states expect to redeem them and overthrow Populism. Citizenj, regardless of poli tics, are uniting against the 'Pops,' as they are called. The miners and rail road men in Colorado are for Waite, but the feeling generally throughout the state is that he must lie defeated if Col orado is to be prosperous. The Kansas Republicans have named Major I. N. Morrill for governor, and ho is so popu lar that there is but little doubt of his election." BEATS 311 13 WAY' DANCES. A Frotett Agalntt tlm Nude Indian Dances in the Territory. Perrt, O. T., Aug. 2. A protest to congress will soon be entered from the Oklahoma and Indian Territory against Indian dances. These dances have be come so vulgar that some of tho more modest white people and the be?t In dians believe that the national govern ment should interfere. At the dances, w hlch aro held nearly every Sunday at the different agencies by the Otoe, Oiaga, Creek. Cherokee, and other tribes, there are hundreds cf spec tators. The dau3 du ventre that made the Midway Plaisaace at the Chicago World's fair famous, is not a circum stance to the performance given by these virtually nuie bucks. Tho better class of residents of the reservation will make a strong efforts in the name of decency to have the dances of the In dians suppressed. TAKSNEY ATTACHED.

General Jef fries' branch of the commonweal army, 400 strong, has reached here. The leader, R. J. Jeffries, stands not much over livo feet high, is dark skinned and has glossy black hair and mustache. Ho is decorated with a huge badge marked "General," and in the buttonhole of his coat wears an A. O. U. W. pin and a small piece of white ribbon, showing him to be of temperance proclivities. The general modestly admits that he is a graduate of Ann Arbor law school and a member of the International Typograph ical union. The army slept at Jack's Run and had a slender breakfast of bread, green ap ples and hot water seasoned with a little coffee. General Jeffries visited Superin tendent Muth and obtaiued permission to march through the streets. They are the largest body passed through Pitts burg aud only half of the army is iu this division. Police and civilians compared them favorably with other bands of Cox ey ites. At 7 p. m. the army marched to the wharf, where a large crowd gathered. A pile of timber was used for a rostrum. G. G. Lester saug some of tho Corn weal sougs and presented General Jef fries. The leader spoke fluently for two hours, expounding the doctrines of Pop ulism as amplified and added to by the Comraonwoalers. He advoceted the em ployment by the government of thous ands of men in tho construction of a vast irrigating system in the west. Ho thought hundreds of now idle men might be profitably employed im proving the rough, streets of Pittsburg and Allegheny. A New Hand In South X) tkota. Sioux Falls, S. D., Aug. 2. Reports come from Mitchell to the effect that about 130 commonwealers are en route from that city to Sioux Falls. Where they camo from no one seems to know. Trainmen on the Omaha road had con siderable trouble with them yesterday. The wealers wanted to ride, but were re fused that privilege. Finally the deter mined tramps climbed into box cars. At the first station out of Mitchell a car containing about twenty wealers was side-tracked and the train proceeded. It was supposed that all had been left be hind, but at Spencer it was found that about twenty more were occupying a car of wheat. After considerable ditiiculty the train was rid of the Coxevites. NOT SO EASY. An Insurmountable Obstacle to the Spending of the Cholera Fund. There is a new obstacle in the way of the payment of the cholera fund to the state "board of health, which has evi dently been overlooked. The cholera protection law is published on page 98 of the laws of ISOd, and one of its provi sions is as follows: "lhe warrant or warrants for the pay ment of expenses incurred as herein pro vided, shall be drawn only upon the cer tificate of the president and secretary of the state board of health, recommended by the judge of the district whose terri tory is threatened or affected, and ap proved by the governor of the state." It will be seen from the above that it is no easy matter for the state board of health to get possession of tho S,O)0 placed at its disposal by the executive council. Tha governor can, if he is in earnest, by taking advantage of the pro visions of the law, prevent the squander ing of the money. ALAR 31 AMONG DEMOCRATS.

Tt. is almost certain that the Re publicans will adopt a resolution favor ing fusion with the Populists. II. L.

The plan is to capture the su preme court as well as the legislature. PACKING HOUSES CLOSE. All Those In South Omha Shut Uovru On Account of the Strike. Omaha, Neb., Aug. 2.
