His Appearance is Greeted With Great Cheering:- WERE HOWLED DOWN. Anti-Waite Speakers Drowned Out by Yells. Scenes of Disorder in Earlier Tart of Convention. Fueei.o, Col. Spt 5. Pandemonium broke louse in the Populist state conven tion almost as aoou as it was called to or der at 9:15 tod.iy. The majority report of the committse on credentials favored tis sealing of the Waite delegates from Denver aui tha Barela delegates from Las Animas cointy. indicating that Waite and Barela have reached an understand ing an i that S enator Barela, who has been already nominated for state treas urer by the Democrats, will also receive the Populist ncmination for that office. Thomas M. Patterson, leader of the op position to Waite appeared on the stage and endeavored to speak. The rouventicn refused to hear him uuiil the majority report of the creden tials committee had been adopted with a hurrah. A rnot.ou was then carried al low iu; Mr. Patterson live minutes to ad dress the convention. Mr.. Patterson said he was hissed out of the Populist convention a he waa howled dowrl iu tiielast national Demo cratic convention when he was making a tight for silver. Nothing he could say in five minutes, ha s. id, wonld make any improseion upon the dalegates and he ouli, therefore, simply enter tho pro test of the minority. Ed II olden, ent i- Waite. attempted to speak but was howled down. Thereup on the Patterson delagation from Denver left the hall, followed by about a dozen othr delegates. Gov. "VSai'.j was renominated on the first ballot, receiving all but a half a dozen votes, which were given to Con gressman Pence The nominatijn was made unanimous. A committee of ladies was appointed to escort Gov. Wai'e to the hall, and Mis3 Phoebe Couzen introduced him to the convention. lf-j was greeted with tre mendous clieeriag. After he had thanked the convention a reces-j waa tal:eu, T. M. Patterson says anti-Waites have no organized plan, but some action will probably be taken in a few days looking to Bupport of tha Democratic ticket. DEBS' TRIAL BEGUN AGAIN The Slotloa for Ju ry Trial Is Tempor arily overrttleti. Chicago, Sept. 5. The hearing of the contempt case against Presideut Debs and other onic.jra of the A. R. U., which was discontinuud on July 23, was taken up Judge Woods of the United States Circuit court this morning. Counsel Wahter, for the government, announced a supplemental bill of in formation. A'.toruey Gregory, for the defense, moved for a jury trial, which was temporarily overruled. The taking of evidence ai then begun. President Debs was unable to be pres ent owing to serious illness, but the other defendants were in court. Attorneys for the Santa Fe railroad, which had brojght proceedings against the defendants similar to those of the government, atdced leave to amend their till. Judge Woods ruled 1hat while the testimony hearl should be considered as testimony in the government case, it should also b3 applicable to the Santa Fe pre ceei lings. 11 A. Mulfcrd, jr., manager of the Western Union Telegraph company was culled and produced a collection of over 9,000 telegrams bearing upon the strike. '1 he defense bitterly objected to the ad mitthiico of telegrams, but Judge Woods finally admitted them. Dozens of them were read and when the lamous '"Save your mouey aad buy a gun" message wus read, it wai found that it also con tained the words: "Tell EGio I am well," showing it to be a private tele gram. Attorney Gregory took occasion to de nounce the prosecution for giving the incomplete message for publication. Judge Woods taid that he did not con sider that the alleged garbling of the diepatch amou ited to much. -When I read that telegram in the papers,-' said the court, "I did not attach much importance to it aa it did not ap par particularly incendiary."' Is was shown that Debs had nothing to do with the sending of the '-Buy a gun" dispatch, and that it was sent by a subor dinate. Aftf r the reading of other telegrams, Mr. Mul ford was temporarily excused and John Urtnnock. a city contractor, took the stand. During his hearing Presi dent Debs entered the courtroom. lie was palo from his recent illness, and seemed scarcely abU to stand, as he walked slowly to his teat. Mr. Debs had not expected to bo present at today's pro ceedings, and left his bd against his physician's orlers. Witness Bre mock testified to having secured during the strike an order of non-interferen je from Debs, which he used ia having some switchiug done in the railroad yards. lie said he experi enced much diOieulty in having the rail road cars moved. l H. War Teasels to the East. Washington, Sept. 5. The United State navy is fathering quite a fleet at the Asiatic su.Ciod. Commander Good rich, with the Concord, arrived today at Yokohama, and the Charleston is on hor way. The Petrel was ordered from Be ring fei to tho Asiatic station with the Couccrd, but tae latter has beat the Pet rel to Japan. JUDGES AND LEGISLATURE The German Lcai;ue Will Make Its Fight on tlie Can dlil a to. H. Von Laugen, who is one of the founders of the German I.m ?ue, haa re turned from the meeting et Salina. "No, sir," he said, in speaking of the meeting, "we didn't endorse any party. There waa an effort made by both Dem ocrats and Populi3ts to get an endorse ment, but they diin't get it. There were members of all parties in the league meeting the greater number being Democrats and Populist", but there were some Republicans there, too. The Re publicans didn't any anything though. They were silent, like their platform. "While the league did not endorse any ticket it did decide to support no candi date who is in favor of woman suffrage or prohibition. We intend to concentrate our strength on the legislature and judg es. A committee was appointed ia each congressional district, who? 5 business it is to find out where the candidates stand on these questions. This committee will receive reports from the counties in the district, and the members will be gov erned accordingly." DON'T BELIEVE IT. The Olilcial of the Southcreisttrn Deny the Uanuibal Story. The recent rumors that the Hannibal road has secured possession of the South western from Leavenworth to Meridea and will opperate its trains to Topeka soon, is denied by the ofScers of tha latter road under Receiver C. T. McLellan. Mr. McLellan himself is out on a tour of inspection of the Manhattan, Alma tfc Burlingame but both Auditor Charles Webb and Traiumaster II. A. Tice, of the Southwestern, sy they know nothing about it excepting what they had seen in the newspapers. They say that if Mr. Mc Lellan knows anything about the pro posed change he has not tcld them any thing about it. They seem to regard tho etery as highly impossible. SEVEN MORE U URN ED. The Forest Fires in Wisconsin Clitim More "Victims. St. Pali, Sept. 5. Seven people woro burned to death in the tires at Marengo, a few miled south of Ashland, Wis. Ihs new3 has just been received at Ashland. The bodies have reached thut city but are so badly burned that recognition is impossible. Tho dead are: Frank Bergf.om, Isaac Tow.vkv, Mrs. Ida Townet, Elisha Townet, Wm. Town by, Jessie Townet, Walter Graft. The latter four are children. A. B. U. APATHETIC. Most of the Pullman Striki-rs Now Em ployed Iu the Shops. Chicago, Sept. 5. It seems probable now that the formal order calling off the Pullmau strike will never be issued. For the fourth time delegates from the eigh teen branches of the A. R. U. at Pullman have failed to meet In response to a call summoning them to consider the matter of declaring the strike at an end. It is said that the reason for this ap parent apathy oa the part of the strikers is that the majority of each union aro at present employed in the shops. MYSTERIOUS PHOEBE. 3I1&S Couzens K u vs sx T.ot of Things She Won't Tell. Pckblo, Colo. Sept. 5 Phoebe Couzens in an address last night said that she hoped the Populists would win their aims by ballots and not bullets, though great reforms some times necessitate sacrifice. The Republican party, she said, opposed woman suffrage, and the women must look to the People's party for help. Miss Couzens also declared that she overheard a conversation one night while traveling, and leurned that the Republi can campaign was planned ia England. She also claimed to kuow the name of the next Republican governor, but would not talk further on the subject. MAY PUT TME'l BACK. The Santa Fe May liestore the Trains ltecently Abandoned iu October. It is probable that whan the fall time card of the Santa Fe is issued the trains recently taken off will be restoreii These are trains 1 and 2 on the main Hue and used to reach Topeka going west at o:l0 p. m., and going east at .:1C a. in., ind the N03. 7 and 3 whose Tt.peka time was west 11:35 p. in., and east at 5:15 a. m. The time car l to be issued in October is the regular change for the "winter and the officials say that as they wdl have need for the trains, recently abandoned, during the fall and winter in taking care of the California business, they will like ly be put on again. II t Head itf ii t the Axles. Central. Citt, Colo., Sept. 5. E. Reed, superintendent aad gererai manager of the Bob-Tail mine, while being drawn to the top of the shaft, in company with W. S. Forbes and Edward 13. Kirby, was knocked from the bucket and instantly killed. Mr. Reed fell a distance of 52o feet, landing on the top of his head on a trolley with such force as to bend the axles. A V ill Have a H-av y Corn Crop. Pana, I1L, Sept. 5. This section was visited by a cloud burst, followed by al most continual rain for tha last twenty four hours. This saves the pastures. The corn crop hereabouts will bo the heaviest ia many years. it u in f an Ihistle iu Colorado. Denver, Sept. 5. The Russiaa thistle has gained a foothcll ia Colorado. Specimens have been found near Denver and it is believed recent mysterious deaths among tock in th s vicinity were caused by eatiag this indigestible plant. liryan's Convention a Fizzle. Denver, Sept. 5. The Western Dem ocratic Leaguti convention called by Congressman Bryan an 1 ether Nebraska Democrats to meet in Ler,ver this week, has failed to materialize. Buffalo, X. Y., Sept. 5. Gen. George Stoneman, ex-governor of California, died in this city this ino.ain:; at the residence of liia slater, Mrs. Benjamin IL Williams. MM LEASE IS BAG She Says She Offered to "Follow Up Injralls," Bat the Populist Managers Ifrnored Her Letter. TALK ANYWAY. Mrs. Lease Says She'll Speak If She Wants To. Will Never Spend Another Winter in Kansas. She Refuses to Say Much About the Carworks. Mrs. Mary E. Lease arrived in Topeka this forenoon and is stopping at the Na tional hotel. She has just returned from Pullman, 111., where she has been to in vestigate the condition of the un employed labor there. She was seen at the hotel by a Jocrnal reporter this afternoon. Mrs. Leasa seems to be ia a little bet ter health than she was when she waa here last, about two weeks ago. She is far from well yet, however. In speaking of her health sho said: 'Last winter was probably the last I shall spend in Kansas. I find it does not quite agree with me. I have purchased land in Fresno county, California, in what is known as the beautiful San Joaquin valley. There I shall go some time in October and stay the entire win ter, as I intend to all my other winters. Kansas weather and my rheu matism do not agree. I shall not leave Kansas. 1 couldn't do that. I am very much attached to Kausss." JiIs it true that you are writing Pull man articles for au eastern magazine?" "I was there on journalistic work. I find a terrible condition th?re. Tho re ports are not exaggerated onei If the hand of charity should be lifted from the poor of Pullman for twenty-four hours I don't know what would become of them. It is a fact that in some of the houses that the Pullman company values at $200 and that did not cost a cent over $75, there are now three or four families living, And they are beiDg sup ported by the charitab'e people of tha city of Chicago. There are twelve thousand families there that are abso lutely destitute;, and Pullman haa rot contributed one cent to their relief fund. I was entertained there by Rev. Wm. H. Carwardine, who is writing the story of the strike. lie is a formerly of Kanaa man, and we were ail Kansans together. 'blow about the idea of the ex-Pullman employes establishing car works at Hiawatha or Lawrence?" "Wei!, now I can't talk about that conmittee work, but I believo the idea has been given up, so far as Hiawatha is concerned. We cannot say anything about that though." "Are you going to speak in Kansas during the Kansas campaign?" "I can't say as to that. I see it haa been stated that I have had no oppor tunity to so far as th committee is concerned. That is too true. When .Mr. Ingalls announced to the Republican campaign committee that he was ready to speak in Kansas I immediately notified the Populist com mittee that I was ready to speak also and that I should very much prefer to follow in the wake of Mi. Iugalls, as I had his eighteen years' senate record so well in hand, but there has never been a reply to my proposition. Perhaps they thought it wasn't necessary to pay much attention to Mr. Ing;dl3. Still, if I want ed to speak, I would. No campaign committee has any letters on me. l have not spoKen much since I was sick, however. I Cud I can't make dates with any degree of certainty. I spoke at Hyde park, Chicago, Saturday even ing to an immense crowd and was to have spoken at Ogden park oa Labor Day. but it was raining so and I was afraid of my rheumatism thct I cancell ed the date after I reached the park. "I have promised to speak before the civic federation in Chicago next month, but 1 don't know that I will be able to fill the appointment." The reporter here informed Mrs. Lease of Mrs. Diggs' interview iu the Journal. of last Friday, in which she said that the suffrage amendment aad Populism would carry iu Kansas with a big majority, and that she regretted the City park incident, in whicn Mrs. Lease was introduced. "It was the first time I ever stooped to a personality and I was punished for it right away," Mrs. D ggi had said. "les, I think there is no doubt that suffrage will carry in Kansas,'" said Mrs. Lease, thoughtfully, then changing the subject sudaenly,"Sh8 does not attempt to deny that she said I lied, does she? Everybody heard that. I was surprised that the little woman let her temper get so completely the better of her. I won der what did it." "Perhaps it was the remark yon made about her," suggested the reporter. "Why my remark wasn't personal. I hadn't said anything that did not apply to a great many people besides herself. What could have led me to? I suppose she expected some reply to the remark she made about traitors coming back to the party. I have heard that was it. I didn't consider that personal. That applied to a good many oth er people besides myself. Mr. Corning and Mr. Bennington were very angry about it. I felt so sorry that she made such a demonstration there. She made 6uch a pretty little suffrage speech that it is a pity she spoiled it all by her actions. She caunot make suffrage speeches enough in years to counteract it against herself as a suffrage speaker. "I hear Ben Henderson has flopped. Is is possible that Baa has gone entirely over to the Republicans? I haven't read uis letter yet. Well, Ben is a good hon est soul, and if he hu, he mean? it, but it is hard to believe he haa. I wish you would gat me a copy of the letter." The reporter promised he would and left, Mra. Lease wiil be in Topeka until tomorrow. DENOUNCE CLEVELAND. Minnesota Democrats Condemn the Pres ent Administration No Fusion. St. Paul, Minn., Sept 5. The Demo cratic state convention met today and the right over the fusion with the Populist waa at once precipitated. The state committee whose action some time ago in refusing to indorse President Cleveland's tariff letter caused the resignation of Chairman Cufcheon and Secretary Smalley selected Hon. P.'B. Winston, of Minneapolis for temporary secretary. Mr. Winston and tha committee also opposed fusion. Ramsay county pre sented the name of Senator Leavitt, of Meeker county, who represented the fusionista and was supported by the anti-committee delegates. Altera warm debate Mr. Winston waa chosen by a small majority. After the appointment of the commit tee a recess was taken until 3 o'clock. Charles A. Busiel was nominated for governor. The platform denounced the Democratic administration, also its Hawaiian and financial policy and held it responsible for tho business depression. The principles of the Minneapolis con-, vention were reaffirmed. SANTA FE AFFAIRS. Receiver Walker 'Will Make Ills Head quarters iu Chicago. New York, Sept. 5. A meeting of the Atchison general reorganization com mittee will be held today if a quorum is obtained which is considered unlikely. Expert Little will not have his report ready for two weeks to come and will not present any figures today, so that there can bo little of public interest in today's meeting if it is held. A quorum for the reorganization com rnitteo was not secured for to day's meeting an i hence no busi ness was done. Hut the members present informally discussed the pros pects of the company from a business standpoint. An elfort will be made to get a quorum for a meeting next Mon day. Receiver Walker says he will make his regular headquarters iu Chicago, that his bonds will be filed beginnings with tday in the several states in which it is required to fids them and he wiil make a tour of the road within the next two months. The Atchison protective committee held a meeting today aha drew up anoth er letter to stockholders, which will probably be issued this evening or to morrow. LATE COURT NEWS.

Robert Hay Read a Paper on "Waters of the Plains." MAKES A PROPHECY. In the Next Decade Kansas Will Have 2,000,000 People. Every Acre of Western Land Will be Cultivated. Denver, Sept. 5. In the National Ir rigation congress today, Ex-Gov. Prince of New Mexico chairman of Ihe commit tee on resolutions, stated the committee would be ready to report tomorrow. Resolutions were introduced requesting congress to pass a strict law for tne pres ervation of the forests; favoring the ced ing by the government to the states and territories all the arid lands within their borders, never to pass out of their possession and to be alloted to settlers in small tracts on terms to be determined ou by the slates and territo ries; asking that the water of inter-state streams be apportioned among the vari ous states and territories by the govern ment and that priority of right bo con eidered to some- extent. The Carey act ceding one million acres of arid land to each of the arid states and territories was approved. Tbese were referred to the committee without debate. A paper waa read by W. W. Foilett, civil engineer of Denver, on "The under flow of waters of the great plains." He graphically described the under flow of the west and especially in Colo rado and Kansas aid arrived at the con clusion that the sheet water underflow of tho arid regions was not supplied by the melt iu snow in the mountains so much as from the streuma and rainfall and was not strong enough to diminish to any great extent tha supply of water for irrigation purposes. Robert Hay, state geologist of Kansas, lead a paper on "Waters on the Plains." He described the irrigation system of his state, detailed progress made during the past few years and prophesied that before the end of the next decade every acre of land in Western Kansas would be under cultivation and the state have a population of 2,00,J,000. Mra. M. A. Fales-llamm, wife of tho American consul to Amoy, China, read a paper on ancient and modern irrigation in China and Japan. Mrs. Hamra has traveled over China, Corea and Japan during the last two j-ears, and has thoroughly investigated the system of irrigatio?i in those coun tries, which she said was over 3,000 years old, but was very crude. The congress elected the following national executive committee: Wm. E. Sinythe of California, chairman; Fred L. Alles of California, secretary. Prof. Edwin M. Boggs, Arizona; Alvin M. West, California; M. R Gaff, Idaho; J. W. Gregory, Kansas; J. E Belt, Min nesota; Samuel D. Iiobbins, Montana; A. Ford, Nebraska; Elwood Mead, AVyom ing; Charles E. Ford, Rhode Island. Col.

In 1802 it is said that a book, nam not given, waa printed from vulcanized mbber stamps. The first book toliave its leavea num bered waaJHsop's "Fables, printed by Caxton in 14 84. Chinese printing is certainly as early as A. D. 593, books of that dato being now in existence. Booka were printed in Scotland as early as 1509, but the titles of the vol umes and the names of the publishers are not certain. Samples of oriental binding: brought home by the crusaders gave European binders many ideas for the advance ment of the art. Of all the materials for permanent writings papyrus is one of tho niois nn-eatt-factory. All ancient manuscripts of this material are almost us brittle &3 dead leaves. At Athens, in tho timo of Demos thenes, the bookmakers sold a email wooden account book for recording con tracts tit a quarter of an obolus each about a cent. Many mediiDval bindings aro bo in crusted with gold and precious (stones that the legitimate work of tho binder secnia to have been turned over to tho lapidary and goldsmith. Tho discoverer of bookbinders glno was oue Phillatins, an Athenian. Ho made the glno for fastening together sheets of parchment, and so highly wis his invention appreciated that tho Athenians erected a statue in his honor. A great miny errors in the ancient manuscripts were perpetuated by a rnlo of tho monastic orders that a copy must be exactly followed by the Fcribo. Even when ho perceived a mistake ho must not correct it. St. Louis Globe-Deiuo-crat. THE FASHION PLATE. Doublo breasted jackets will bo in favor for fall and winter. 1 Corsets aro made very looso across tho chest and tightly laced around tho waist and across the hips. Always have tho edgo of your glovo meet the edge of the isleeve, whatever the length of the latter may be. Tho shoulder capes mado on jacket! are flat aud narrow, following tho eon tours of front, back and shoulders. A Frenchwoman thinks nothing of paying $15 or $20 for a cornet, but a cor set at that price lasts a couple of years. Bodices are made to lap over from one side to tho other in the front, so as to make an unbroken lino from sleeve to sleeve Capotes are considerably larger in fiizo and chiefly extend in width to ba in harmony with tho newwayaof dress ing tho hair. Big bone and mother of pearl buttons will bo applied to serge dresses end jackets. They will bo almost uncom promising iu .size. Metal belts are entirely. out of fash ion. Something moro tlinvng and pliant, such as ribbon and velvet, have taken their place. Leather belts have never found favor with the French. Never has a garment been so in vo.-rt.a as tho cape. Long, short, wide, narrow, plain, ornate, practical and unpractical, they are seen on tho backs of yonng and old. Still tho jacket is preferably for winter, for tho cape, unless mado cling ing, is the coldest garment that was ever made. Brooklyn Eayle. GEMS OF THOUGHT. We gain as much in avoid in1? tho failings of others as wo do in imitating that in which they excel. Think all you can of the good quali ties of others; forgc-t and keep silent con cerning their bad qualities. Order is the sanity of tho mind, the health of the body, tho peaco of the city, the eecurity of th state. If wrinkles must bo written upon our brows, let them not be written upon tho heart. Tho spirit should never grow ol I. To be free minded and cheerfully dis posed at hours of meat, sleep and exer cise is ono of tho be.-.t precepts of long lasting. Kindness draws out the better part of every nature, disarming resistance, dis sipating angry passions aud melting tho hardest heart. No true man can live a half lifowhcti he haa Genuinely learned that it is only a half life. The othi.- half, tho higher half, must haunt him.

Weber of Pine City, who has had en tire charge of the interment, has had his work well in hand and has kept most accurate account of the bodies. These figures are his, and include those buried by their friends. Four trenches in all have been opened, sep arated by about four f set. Commenc ing on the south in. the north trench ere forty-fire unboxed corpses. In the trench No. 2 are twenty boxes, many containing from two to five bodies. This trench Li not yet closed. In the third are twenty-seven boxes like the others. The fourth trench is not yet in use, but th!ro sre piled up nineteen boxes which will be put in to-day. The foreman of ths Duluth con struction train reported to Coroner Cowan that on the hill at the north end of the bri -.lye across the Grind stone were nine bouie completely in cinerated, so that the sex could not be distinguished. A few rods west of where the Duluth depot stood was found the body of a woman. To this must be ad led the fev7 bodies shipped out, the two buried by Jim Hunt's parties of cruisers, an 1 four interred by another explorer, making' the total of about 2-i5 accounted for in Hinck ley and vicinity. Am izing' estimates are being made, but t aere is no foun dation for thera. There were un doubtedly settlers aud men in the lumber camps who ha ve not yet been discovered. A search for tuem will be prosecuted with vior, and they will be buried where they lie. There is an unknown number of dead in the mill pond. It is as yet imapproximated. Th a bank was cov ered with sawdust and edging's, and not far away was the Brennaa mill and lumber yard. A number of per sons were seen to go to the mill pond. No one came out alive, and hardly a plimpse of the south tank, where the people were, can be cbtained on ac count of the smoke still rolling up in dense columns. It mny be a day or two before this pool of death can be examined. It is full of log's, and the work of recovery will be a matter of a good deal of difficulty unless the dam is cut and the water drawn off, an expedient which may be adopted. At Pokegaina the dead have been nearly all accounted for and will not run over twenty-five. At Miller were buried twelve and at Sandstone sixty seven. These figure, with an esti mate showing' those not vet found, bring1 the total up to 379. the latter estimates may be too -low, but it is a matter of absolute conjecture and it is here that the widely different to tals are found. Somo think that at least 200 settlers in cimps are yet to be found. The dead number 379, as follows: Buried at Hinckley and vicinity.225. At Sandstone, 67. At Pokegama, 25. At Miller, 13. Estimate of dead not found, 50. A party of five experienced timber cruisers and seven assistants started out along- the governr lent road to the east. A similar party of seventeen was sent tip the Eastern Minnesota railroad toward Sandstone. These parties will briny in no bodies if any are found. They Ere equipped with the necessary tools a id will bury the bodies where they find them. These parties were sent into a tract of country from which no reports have been received, and t,he possible re sults of their labors can only be con jectured. During tins day other par ties were started in other directions, but no definite reports will be re ceived for many hours. The work at the cemetery met one ecuiiarly ad interruption. Lee rVebster, the maycr of Hinckley, thought he recognised his wife in the horrid heap of d sad. During1 his temporary absence tie body he hoped to claim for a more formal and sa cred burial was thrown into the pile and covered up. When he learned of It he was half crazed with grief, and upon assistance a portion of the trench where some laen remembered to have placed the body was opened, and he descended ino it to tr3- again to find his loved one. Hither the body lie soug-ht was not the one uncovered or the handling- it had received had destroyed the scanty marks of identi fication, and Webster was forced to admit the shapeless corpse was prob ably not that of his wife, bed the loose sand was again thrown into the pit.

J wrng-rUts FTave a Talk With the Sere tary an the A loo he 1 Schedule. Washington, Sept. 5. Yesterday a timber of gentlemen representing th National Wholesale Druggists" association held a conference with, Secretary Carlisle and Commissioner Miller of the internal revenue bureau pn the free alcohol section cf the new tarta bill. Secretary Carlisle explained the di lemma in which he and Mr. Miller found themselves. The law was a mere skeleton, without money or ma th in ery to'put it into operatiou, nor sould the department employ ag-ents to be paid by the manufacturers, the itatutes expressly prohibiting- it. Altogether- he could not see how it was possible to enforce the law without any supervision and this would, no doubt, lead to unlimited fraud. Then aga5n, it was a very perplexing and difficult thing, the secretary said, to deter mine just what construction should be put upon the words, "the arts," "medicinal preparations" and "other like compounds." There was likely to be a very great difference of opin ion on this subject. He, however, would be glad of any aid the whole sale druggists or any one else could give him. Mr. Carlisle's explanation, most of the members of the delegation thought, rendered any further talk unnecessary. They were frank to admit that they saw no way out of the difficulty except to let the matter go over to the text session of con gress. At the unanimous request of the delegation the secretary will hold the matter open for a few days to en able the members of the association to present their views. Letter Ttom Croref.

Mexico and United State3 May Work Together. TAKE AN EXCUIiSIOK. Tha Delegates Make a Trip to Irrigated Regions. Denver, Col. Sept. 5. The dele gates to the natioual irrigation con gress returned from their excursion to the great agricultural and irrigated districts around Fort Collins, Greeley and Boulder last evening-, delighted with what they had seen. Last night the delegates met at Broadway thea ter to listen to addresses by the foreign delegates. The first speaker was Hon. J. Ramonde Ybarrola of Mexico, who spoke on "Irrigation in Mexico and International Relations." He said his government possessed a large amount of arid lands and were equally interested in the subject of irri gation with the Western States of the United States. This means of watering agricultural lands I was not, however, in its I infancy in the republic of Mexico The Aztecs during the time of Cortes built immense canals and viaducts for this purpose which will stand until the end of time. He believed ia the I g-overnment control of streams run j ning throug-h arid lands and the dis j tribution of its waters under federal jurisdiction and indorsed the resolu i tion requesting congress to appoint an irrigation commission to confer i with like commissions from Mexico and Canada reg a rding the distribution of water from the Rio Grande and the Northwest. j Mr. William Pierce of Canada ad j dressed the congress on irrigation in the Northwest. "Manitoba and th j Northwest," he said, "are the only j portions of Canada where irrigation is j necessary for the cultivation of crops. Here they have 50,000,000 acres, most I of which lies at an elevation of 4,000 feet, and when irrigated will Eroduce great crops of wheat, oats, arley and hay and such fruits as ap j pies and grapes. The settlers of this country at present do not believe ia irrigation and will have to be edu cated to it." Mr. J. II. Dennis also of Canada, spoke on the "Irrigation Laws of Can ada," which are similar to those of Colorado. JONES A POPULIST. The X'evad Senator Renounce Allegi ance to the Kepabllcan Party. Washington, Sept. 5. Yesterday furnished a genuine sensation in po litical circles by the statement that Senator John P. Jones of Nevada, who has represented his state in the United States senate for over twenty-one years, had formally renounced his al legiance to the Republican party and cast his lot with the Populists. Senator Jones has written a letter to his constituency which will be pub lished in Nevada and will be the first intimation to the people of his state that he has doffed the political gar ment which he has worn with such distinction for so many years, and will don the garb of the third party. It is understood his change of policy is based almost entirely upon the ques tion of silver. Senator Jones left Washington for New York. His bolt makes the Ne vada congressional delegation solidly Populistic, Senator Stewart havinf left the Republican party some time ago and Representative Newlands hav ing been elected as a silverite. COKE WORKERS STRIKE. Nearly All the Men to the Conneilsvllle Field Go Oat. Usiostowk, Pa., Sept. 5. In this end of the Connellsville field the coke men came out again yesterday and nearly all the plants south of this place are idle once more. Early yesterday morning' the men began at the Brownfield works for the parade. Marching' from plant to plant the strikers kept tramping' and cheering, and calling out men at work at the ovens, until nearly every plant in the southern end of the region was deserted. As a possible intima tion of what might be in reserve in case coaxing failed to call out the men at work, the strikers fired a dy namite bomb at each plant visited. They seemed to have an inexhausti ble supply of the explosive, and were prodigal in its use. The firing cre ated more excitement than the march ing and music and shouting' of tho strikers. Arkansas Election Ketaras. Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 5. Re turns from Monday's elections are still coming- in slowly, but sutaeienfc information is at hand to show that the Democrats have a clean sweep. Several counties heretofore Populist or Republican went Democratic by small majorities. The Populist vote was much smaller than two years ago, some of the third party voters having1 returned to the Democratic ranks. Killed by m Stroke of Lightning.

Glasscock Gives Hn Bide ot the Case Stewart Bays It Is BlxkaisU. Washington, 8pt. 5. Mrs. Carrie Brady Glasscock, th dsfsndant to the divoroj suit in which Senator Stewart of Nevada, is the co-respond- nt, has written a statement of her lids of the case for the Raleigh, N. C, News and Observer. She g-ives in de tail the story of her alleged relations tvith the Nevada senator, beginning with her office-seeking1 attempts in Washington and of the senator promising- her a position and loaning her money when the position had not been obtained. Her statement, after narrating: the senator's absence from the city, then (roes on as follows: "Urn (Senator Stewart) was very eordial and friendly, even fatherly toward me. His venerable face pre vented his demonstrations of affec tion from being: as offensive as they otherwise would have been. He seated me on his sofa and inquired after my health. As I was still ndictei with malaria he said he had a sure remedy, which he took himself. He made up a dose in a glass and gave it to ins to drink. It put me to sleep. When I came to myself I found he bad taken advantage of me. I ac cused him of his crime and started to leave the office. He pleaded with me not to make a scene, that he had a family at home; that he had been overcome with his attach ment for me; that he had obliged me so long; had worked so hard to fret me a position; had given me money when my family was sick and I was in great distress; that I ought not to do him the great in jury of exposure. He assured me he had certain and immediate pros pects of receiving a permanent posi tion for me with a large salary, which would place me and my children in comfort and beyond all want in tho future. His promises and tiattery finally overcame my indignation aud I consented to accept the position he was soon to have ready for me. "When 1 called again to receive the appointment it was not ready, but his promises and flattery were. He had now acquired power over me, as I bad not exposed him, he could expose me, besides I owed him money I could not pay. Then follows details of money paid, promises to obtain the position and frequent calls at the senator's oflice. "One of his bank cheeks," Mrs. Glass cock says, "which was found in my pocket by my husband, aroused his suspicions, and then he followed me when I went out and had others watch me. He met me soon afterward com ing out of the senator's room. He created a stormy scene with me and I realized the great shadows into which I had been lead, and life no longer appeared worth living, and but for my children I think I would have drowned myself." Mrs. Glasscock then narrates the bringing of a suit for divorce by her husband and her fruitless appeals to Senator Stewart for relief for herself and family. Senator Stewart was seen concern ing the statements of Mrs. Glasscock, but beyond reiterating the charge that the husband and wife were try ing to extort money from him and to blackmail him, be would say nothing. Th fa i tA7 a a 4r rnf. finrl he would make no further statement before the coming trial. MURDERED BY A PRISONER. A Constable In Carroll County, Mo., Shot Dead by a Horsetblef. Careollton, Mo., Sept. 5. The most cold-blooded murder that was ever known in Carroll county occurred yesterday sixteen miles northwest of here. Hurley Goin shot and killed Constable William Hall of Hill town ship. Goin stole a horse from a farmer in northwest Carroll a few days ago and was arrested in Chillicothe by the sheriff of Living-ston county. He was brought to this county and turned over- to Constable HalL While Hall was preparing the pa pers committing Goin to the county jail he laid his revolver on a desk. (Join grabbed it and shot Hall in the neck, killing him instantly. Goin then attempted to shoot Hall's father, but was prevented by Justice Run yan, who grabbed the revolver out of Goin's hand. Goin then ran and was shot at four times by Runyan. One shot took effect in the hand. Goin escaped to the timber. A posBe was quickly organized and at 1 o'clock he was captured. With difficulty be was taken from the in furiated, people and brought to jail at this place. It may be that a lynching will yet take place.

SCARE., IP RANK FOSTER, a A year-old Bene dict, sat scowling' over the note he had just read. Some one had his 7 I Gf-Av V.; i at heart, it i Ktl,M,k seemed, and yet he wanted to anat hematize this "some one" roundly. This was the still alarm sounded: TwisMonaiiiH Hodss. August si.

AW U.11KOWJ FiilEXD. "Confound his impudence," Frank muttered, crumpling the note sav agely, and then spreading it out for a second readir.g. He began to grow furiously jealous. Jealousy Is apt to be a confession of inferiority. But it was not so in Frank's case. He was a man whom women liked immensely. He had been carrying- on a sly flirta tion himself, besides attending to the business wbich kept him burrowing in the city while Emily was enjoy injr the cool mountain breezes. But the masculine mind is obtuse in some di rections, and he had settled down on the belief that he, no matter what his own actions, was first, last and always Ln his wife's thoughts. "Her mother is here and seems to encourage the Intimacy." This sen tence held Frank's attention. He had never seen his wife's mother. She had been abroad when lie met and married Emily, in something of haste, a.i.i his all-knowing friends. iii; p.u ked his valise that night. Frank Foster's blurred inner vision did not biiud him by any means that tfternoon to the grandeur of the mountains, seen through the Septem ber haze, as the engine, groaning heavily over the up grade, wound through the "Notch'' with its train of cars. He could hear a good deal of talk about the late coaching parade above the rumble of the train, and once he was sure he heard the name, "Mrs. Frank Foster." "She'3 a stunning beauty," a man's voice said behind him. "An outrageous married flirt," was tha rejoinder of a woman. Frank was just sensitive enough to be sure they meant Emily, though her name had not been mentioned in the connection. He knew she was a beauty, and that note had done the rest. He wondered if he had not proved a Jonah to the train, when it came to a halt before they reached Fabyan's. He heard something about "lack of steam" and "incompetent engineer," as they got under way again, slowly. They reached the station to find that the stage for the "Twin" had left them in the lurch and gone off with a load, but it was to return and take up later, such as were bound for that breezy hostelry. The stars were out in a sky of crystalline clearness, and the "Twin" was all alight when the belated coach drove up to it with a flourish, and Frank with several other passengers alighted. There were sounds of music andjiancing through the open windows of the parlors, and several j couples, sitting outdances or "cooling off," were scattered over the piazza. 1 The portly manager came, beaming, across the lighted vestibule, but i f 31' ft "i f NOW he bent oveb her. Frank had strolled around the piazza beyond his ken. He walked past the open windows, through which a faint perfume floated from the garments of the dancers. He could see the flutter of gay attire as they floated around in rhythmic movement. Ha wondered if Emily was there. He could not make her out in th3 throng-. He turned away with the thought that he would go in and register, se cure a room and change his raiment, for he had a suit in the valise, which the porter had looked out for. At that moment he noticed a secluded nook at the further corner of the piazza, where branching potted plants hid some tall-backed rustic chairs from the outer world. He heard low voices and thinking of Emily, he walked in that direction. There, sure enough, in the half light he discerned the un mistakable profile and shapely shoul der of his wife as she swayed idly in the pustic chair, which concaaled the rest of her form from viaw. A man with a portly figure stood beside her: now he bent over her; and now he carried her hand to his lips. Frank only tarried long enough to note that she did not resent the fa miliarity, and then turned and fled across the stream of light that poured along: the piazza through the doorway, and down past the bowling alley, where he struck into the narrow road I I W I 0' .'I I Jh&t led out Into tha country past the onalL neat native dwellings. Ha must have open air to breathe in. "No telling how many lonaly ram bles thsy have had here," he mut rL "nor how many times he has tissed her." He spent a suf3e!sntly perturbed our out in the solitude, and went Jirough the time-worn idiotic ravings sf all jealous husbands, and wondered t a divorce could be obtained without publicity, and if Emily would marry ;he other fellow after she was free tnd a good deal more rubbish and then sauntered back to the hotel, a little spent with his journey and un tappy thoughts. As he neared tha grounds he saw a beacon light in the air moving toward iim. The light proved to be a cigar. When near to him it stopped, and ho law that the man who puffed it was Phil Wagner, his old chum. "Of all things, Phil!" he stammered ?ut. It seemed an inopportune meeting for he and Phil had been rivals for the favor of Emily, though the latter was 10 marrying man. "Why, this is a delightful surprise'." Phil said effusively, as ha grasped Frank's hand and shook it warmly. "Your wife is here, lovely as ever. She will be overjoyed to see you." Frank could detect the latent irony under the hearty tone. "Come in, come in." Phil pursued, "and I'll look your wife, up for you. By the way, her mother is here. You knew that, of course. A nice, jolly, lively old lady she is, too. Just let ne conduct you into the receptlou room, and I'll spring a surprise on both of thera. I've been here a week." Presently he heard the rustle of skirts and Emily appeared in the door way radiant in her light blue evening gown. Behind her came another fa- and form, the fac-sirnile of her own, except the other bad a fuller develop ment of figure and the stamp of broader experience upon her counten ance. Phil brought up the rear. His facj was radiant. "Mrs. Foster," he said, with mock ceremony, "allow me to Introduce your husband. Frank, my dear boy, this is your wife. Mr. Fos ter, Mrs. Foster." Emily rushed forward impulsively and threw her arms around his neck. "You are a darling," she said, to come like this. Now, I know why you ueglected to write me. You meant a surprise." Frank felt like choking more than ever. But Emily released him, and turned calmly toward the lady. "Mamma," she said, "this is my hus band. "Frank, my mother, Mrs. Sew ell." "Most happy to meet you." Of course you know that if Frank bad been tumbled headlong into Jup iter at the moment he could not have been more surprised. But he covered the situation well. "Why, you might easily be mis taken, the one for the other," he said, and as the words passed his lips, the new light that dawned on him made him fairly catch his breath. "Yes, indeed," Emily echoed. "We are often called 'The Twins.' Mam ma married out of the schoolroom." "Why in thunder did you draw such a picture?" Frank blurted out. "Wanted to surprise you," said Emily with dancing eyes. "A mother-in-law is apt to be such an ogre," added Mrs. Sewell with a spice of mischief in her tone. "Come in here!" Phil called out to a gentleman who sauntered past the open door. Frank recognized the portly figure he had seen on the piazza, as the man loomed up. "I'm sure you all want to know each other," Phil declared. In a moment Frank understood and was shaking hands with his prospec tive father-in-law. It was not long before a new lisrht broke on his mind. He took Phil aside next day. "You have played this beastly trick on me," he said, grasping- Phil by the button. "What did you do it for?" "I'll play a beastlier" trick than that on you," retorted Phil significant ly, "if I ever again get wind of your neglecting your wife for a flirtation with some other woman. You got off easy this time. The next time you shall figure before the whole world as an unmitigated donkey. THE LARGEST SPIDER. It Is Found ln Ceylon and Is'eeds a Web Nearly Ten Foet Wide. Ceylon is the home of the largest species of spider that has yet been mat! e the subject of entomological in vestigation. This web-spinning mon ster lives in the most mountainous districts of that rugged island, and places his trap not a gossamer snare of airy lightness, but a huge nat of yellow silk from five to ten feet in diameter across the chasms and fis sures of the rocks. The sup porting guys of this gigantic net, which ia almost strong enough for a hammock, are from five to twenty feet in length, as conditions may require, and made of a series of twisted webs, the whole being of the diameter of a lead pencil. This gigan tic silken trap is not set for mosqui toes, flies and pestiferous gnats, but for birds, gaudy moths and elegantly painted butterflies, some of the latter having a tpread of wing equal to that of a robin or bluejay. Some extra fine skeletons of small birds, lizard and snakes have been found in the webs. The spider's body is four arid a half inches in width and six inches in length, legs nine to twelve inches from body to terminal claw. A Hard One. Small Son Papa, may I ask you a question?

Leavenworth. A Wichita Populist Strikes a Man for Criticising Simpson. OTIimi STATE NEWS. The German American League Indorses No Partv. Leaven-worts, Sept. ,1 Dr. D. J. Griffith of Kansas City, his been at the fort making some experiments with the Krag-Jor gensen gun, recently adopted by the United States army, on bohalf of the United States Army Surgeons' asso ciation, of which Dr. Griffith is a mem ber. The guns were the first of their kind ever seen at the fort, although the government is arming its soldiers with them as fast as they cia be made at the Springfield arsenal. The bullets are of small caliber, three-tenths of an inch in diameter aud one and oae-half inches in length. Tn-y have lead cores aud steel nickel jackets. The experiments were made by shooting dogs on the Leavenworth military reservation. Ser geants Griffith and Bay, the two most famous sharpshooters in the serrice, did the shooting. br. Griffith concluded after his experi ments that at 1,00 J yards or more the gun is humane, ana that at 5 )0 yards or less it is anything but humane. The old Springheld ritla was not humane because a in inn u? ball would often shatterabone and make the amputation of a limb nec essary. A really humane gun will bore a hole through a man, and, if it fails to kill him outright, his chances of com plete recovery are go.jd. Dr. Griffith found that a bullet from a Krag-Jorgen-sen gun will go through a ban i.t 1,000 yards without splintering the bune in the least. At shorter distance tho explosive force of the bullet is terrific. A tin ca.i tiled with wet sawdust was exploded at 5u0 yards. On the same principle Dr. Griffith says thilt a bullet at that distance going through a man's skull would fcplit it. The effect of using the gun at short range would bo to make warfare more barbarous. Bones would be split and shattered and a man struck with such a bullet would be maimed for life, if not killed. All of tho powers of Europe have adopted rides s.m.lar to the Kiag-Jor-genaen gun but of different calibre. For example the English use a bullet of 29 calibre, the French 31 and the Russians 30. The reason given is that if the sol diers of one nation should cap ture am munition belonging to tuoae of another they could not use it. Dr. Griffith said: "With thene guns there will be no lighting at shorrrauge. We will never again have armies tifty or 100 yards apart in battle. They will "find 1,0:.0 or 1,500 yards near enough for fighting with the weapons that will be used in the nest great wars between civilized powers." INDORSES 0 TICKET. German E-siUe Ieml?rs I.eft Free to Vote For "Whomsoever They Please. Salina, Sept. 5. The meetiug of the Kansas German-American league held in this city was attended by about 100 delegates. The following resolutions were introduced by Dr. E. J. Lutz of Kansas City, Kan., which was discussed for several hours and finally adopted: Whereas, The indorsement of either of the already nominated state tickets would not assist the German-American league in tho accomplishment of its ob jects, therefore be it Resolved, That the representatives of the Germau-American league of Kansas ia convention tsoembled believe it to be inadvisable and inexpedient at this time to indorse either of the already nomi nated state tickets, but recommend that the different sub-leagues vote fjr such candidates for reprefceutative in the leg islature and other county offices regard less of political affiliation who would favor the enacment of amendments to the present prohibitory law which would make that statute less objectionable. Wherea, Through the passage of the equal suffrage amendment our present deplorable condition woul i be rendered worse instead of better, and a3 our moth ers, wives and daughters do not desire the privilege of voting, be it further Resolved, That in th:s campaign the foremost duty of the German-American league is to employ every legal agency in its power' to tight the suffrage amend ment. After the above resolutions were passed the new officers were chosen aud the meeting adjourned. Following are the new officers: Presi dent, C. J.

SALT MEN WILL EIGHT THE TARIFF William Stone of Hutchinson Stays the Law Is Invalid. Kansas Cixr, Mo., Sept. 5. The salt manufacturers of the souta west territory, including the states of Kansas, Texas and Missouri, who were in session in this city last Tuesiay, have determined to fight the free salt clause of the new tariff bill. There is a tschnicality in tho bill somewher that ia fatal t it, and they will at once begin action to defeat it and maintain the duty on salt as form erly in force. Mr. William Stone of Hutch inson,who is at the head of one of the largest salt companies in the west, was in the city yesterday on his way home from a vaca tion in Oinada, and during a conversa tion stated that the men hid employed able counsel and would at onca file an action in the courts to defeat the free salt clause. There is no doubt, he ttated, of their ability to do ts- they desire, as the attorneys have discovered the fatal tech nicality that will invalidate the entire clause relating to free salt. The suit, Mr. Stone aii, would show when it was tiled, vvhat the technicality was. TO Tl KX THE RIVER'S COURSE. A Trench Bein Dug- at Atchison to Change the S lsuri lit. unl. Atcmison, Sept. 5. A force of twenty five men was put to work todty under the direction ui Engineer Fasting, and a trench 1,500 feet Ion? will be cut through the sandbar just above East Atchison. The trench will follow a north, and south line, a short distance to the west of tha old government dykes, and will be fed at the upper end of the bar by jetties. Mr. Fanning does not expect to turn the river through this opening, which will be completed in ten days, but he ex pects to turn a portion of the stream into it, which will gradually cut out a bed for tho main body of the river. This will ease the pressure against the long dyke which is to be constructed from the Missouri bank, two miles above the bridge. This long dyke, and sev eral short ones, is Mr. Fanning'! perma nent plan of turning the water. SEAT HIS WIFE'S I HIkND. Tha Little Town of 3Iouadridg. lit a Sen sation. McPkeksos, Sept, 2.

Fred Rhodes, the young man who shot and killed Richard McAvoy at Hartford last Wednesday, was given a preliminary hearing before Judge Fletcher. After hearing a large number of witnesses the judge ordered the prisoner released, as he did not con sider the evidence sufficient to bind liim over to the district court. Notwithstanding the verdict of the cor oner's jury that the killing "was not jus tifiable homicide," the testimony all went to show that the published reports of the affair were correct and that Rnodes acted in self defense. The sentiment of the Hartford community seems to be almost unanimously in Rhodes' favor. Pl'LLMAX MEX TO VISIT LAWRENCE. Committee to Look op a Location for Car Works Expected Thare.

ALL BAGGAGE LOST. Prof. Dyche of State University Lost Valuable Specimens. The Party Was Saved by the Schooner Rierel. Copyrighted 1891 by the Associated Fre S3. 1 North Sidney, B. C, Sept. 5. The schooner Rigel of Gloucester, Mass., Capt G. W. Dixon, arrived here today. having on board the crew and passengers of the steamer Miranda, which left New York July 7, with Dr. F. A. Cook's arctic excursion. All tue party are well. On August 9 tho Miranda struck a rock near Sukkertoppen, West Greenland, aud was abandoned in a sinking condition August 23 in Davis strait, latitude about 61 de grees 15 minutes, longitude 53.40. The particulars of the expedition and its disastrous termination are as fol lows: After repairing the damage sustained by the iceberg collision on July 17, the Miranda left St Johns N. F. on July 29, and proceeded direct ly to Greenland. Much ice and fog were unexpectedly encountered off Cape Fare well. At one time the vessel came near being nipped in the floes, the rising of a fog disclosing ice all around. Considerable apprehension was felt by the officers, and visions of the fate of the Jeanette and Proteus expeditions arose before the passengers, as the Miranda was totally unfit to cope with the terrors of arctic navigation. But fortunately a thin place in tne floes was found and the ship driven through. The southwest coast of Greenland was so blocked with ice that no landing could be made until August 7, when the expedition reached Sukkertoppen, in lat 65.25. StrucU 011 a Reef. Leaving this port on the morning of the 9th, the vessel had proceeded about seven miles at full speed when she struck with tremendous force on a hid den reef. Everything loose went flying forward. The Stewart, John Fatrell, was struck by a trunk and elightly in jured. The party at breakfast found themselves piled up with dishes and viands at the end of the cabiD. Three times high waves lifted the ship and let her down with a crash that shook her from end to end. When she floated off great excitement prevailed as the vessel was soon seen to be settling:. The boats were swung off and everything made ready to abandon the steamer. It was found however that the main injury was beneath the ballast tank, wnich rilled so rapidly that the pumps could not control the inflow. But the watertight bulkhead protected the other compartments and Eskimo pilots having at length come off in their Kayacks, the steamer was got safely into harbor where it was considered unsafe to proceed further with the damaged ves sel. The situation of so large a body of excursionists on this inhospitable coast was not encouraging and especially when it was found that the Danish steamer which regularly visits the settlement had been siove in by ice and would not ar rive this year. Short Rations Ser-d. It began to look us if the expedition might have to winter in Greenland and short rations were served in anticipation of such a catastrophe. It was learned however, through the Danish governor that several American fishing schooners were on the halibut banks near Iiolsten borg, 120 miles north. To secure one of these vessels, Dr. Cook with Messrs. Rogers, Porter and Dunning and four Eskimos started for the banks in an open boat After a stormy voyage lasting ten days they found the Rigal and brought her to the assistance of the people on the disabled steamship and the passengers were transferred to the Rigel. The Miranda then took the Rigel in tow and left Sukkertoppen on August 21 intending to proceed directly to 8t Johns, N. F. All went well for two days but a heavy sea the second night weak ened the top of the ballast plank on which an enormous pressure was exerted and it gave way at 12:30 a. m., August 23. Three blasts of the whistle gave warning to the Rigel to stand by. The night was cold, dark and foggy and the vessels bounded like balls on the billows. Cut Lose the Life Boat. On board the Miranda ail wag confu sion. The firemen, leaving the boiler room without orders cut lose the best life boat which was immediately dashed to pieces against the ship's side and they were only kept in submission at the point of the captain's revolver. The car penters tried in vain to stop the leak with blankets and mattresses and at day light, as the water was invading the coal bunker and a storm was threatening, the shiy wa3 abandoned. Tho ciew was taken aboard the schooner. It was fortunat6 that the pas sengers were already on the Rigel as a transfer could hardiy have been effected under lhe trying conditions without loss of lifo. Nothing except the sailors' bags were saved from the Miranda. The pas sengers lost all their baggage except the clothing worn when they went on board the Rigel at Sukkertoppen. Many of them lost expensive scientific inslru- menta and hunting equipment. I .17 All the botanical, geological and eth nological collections and all the photo graphs, probably the finest ever taken in Greenland, went dowu with the Miranda. Prof. Dyche of the Kansas university lost a fine lot of Labrador and Greenland birds. Prof. Wright of Oberliu college, was able to make interesting studies of the glaciers near Sukkertoppen, but otherwise the expedition was a failure from the scientists point of view, as it was also from that of the sportsman. Slept on Files of Fish. The journey homeward was without incident other than the adverse winds and insuCicient provisions, only ten days supplies for forty men having been placed on the Rigel, and the addition of the Miranda's crew, making ninety-cue persons on board this little craft of 107 tons. The passengers slept iu the hold on top of the salt and lish. Gulls and other seabirds constituted the only freh meat of the party for the last ten days. Too great credit cannot be given to Capt Dixon and the crew of the Rigel for their efforts in behalf of those whom they had rescued. The party will have a banquet at South Sidney before leav ing at which time a handsome testimo nial will be presented to Capt Dixon. The lost ship Miranda, was built in 1884, for the St John and New York trade. She is famous as the vessel which lost the celebrated Leary timber raft off Long Island sound. For two years past she has been running to Central America and West Indies, She is said to have been insured for $90,000. rjTlie Crowulnic lifuty of Woman. Is a luxuriant growth of Hair.

Bo. kin says he la a Christian socialist It is comforting to see that Christianity is making some pro gress among the socialists. None of the Populi.it institutions have done them quite as nuch harm as the state board of charities It is an engine of destruction self destruction, While Ben Henderson and the mem bers of the state bou-d of charities are calling each other hi nh names, the Re publicans are gathering in the voters. Some preachers want God in the con stitution. If they ever get their desire, they will have to go into politics. Recent events In Kansas show they are going there. Ths types made us lay Bent Burdock Instead of Murdock, yesterday. Bent Isn't that kind of a weed, but a brave, Kansas sunflower of the tallest and traightest type. The voters are in a queer condition this year. Thousands of them "haven't Bey string tied to the n." Some mighty good arguments will hve to be put npto win their vote Gov.

WHEAT FOR FEED. We are in possession of information from a reliable source that the farmers of central Kansas are not in such bad condition In consequence of the drouth as many suppose. It is true that the corn crop has been to a great extent a failure, but they harvested a fair crop of wheat and have a large portion of last year's crop still on hand. They are ship ping wheat to the eastern markets every day. Like true Kansans they are making the best of the situation and are using wheat for feed; not only the small farm ers, but the feeders and large dealers in live stock. One man near Hayes City, our informant says, has bought 13,000 bushels of wheat to feed to hcgi. A large number of the hogs now going in to the Kansas City market are from this region and are wheat-fed. Not a poor or unmarkatable hog is being shipped out The mills of the country have all put in machinery for making chop feed in answer to the demand. At the prices now being realized for hogs, and the low price of wheat at that distanca from market, good returns are realized from this method of handling- the product of the country. The consumption of ao large a quantity of wheat must also cer tainly tend to the ultimate enhancement of the price of grain used for milling purposes. The Kansas farmer is a man of resources and does not recognize the word fail if he has half a show. Even in those portions of the state where the wheat failed, as well as the com, they are going ahead plowing and preparing to put in another crop as though nothing had happened. The reports about peo ple leaving the state are said by those who have traveled through central and western Kansas recently, to be greatly exaggerated Ceaklix Cvbtis voted right on the re peal of the. fciherman act, but it took a long time for the Kansas goldbugs to get around to that view of it They had to be thrashed into it by public opinion, and they are in danger of sneaking out if the lash Isn't held over them. They need to be watched. It is said that attendants are h!red at the state insane asylum with a view to their ability in playing in the asylum brass band. The band did not appear in the Labor Day parade to the disappoint ment of the spectators. It would be interesting to hear what Van B. Prather thinks of Dr. McCasey; also, it would be interesting to print what John W. Breidenthal says of McCasey. KANSAS PARAGRAPHS. Strong City is well enough oil to have to regret the scarcity of empty houses. Fall river at New Albany is the lowest it has Leen in 29 years, and st.ll fall ing. Ivy Breeze who lives In Chase county holds out strong inducements to some sturdy oak. There are eighty-two Democratic pa pers in Kansas. There are only that number of postoffices worth striving for. There is a young woman at Pea body named May me. In justice to the town it may be said that she is soon to move away. The Glen Eider dancing club is said to have had a "huge" time at its first meet ing this year. Those that were there drop the e in describing it If the River Baptist association doesn't briDg Manhattan a good soaking rain, it will be because the weather clerk has no sense of the fitness of tlxiuja. Everybody supposed that Editor Scott of lola was very comfortably fixed; but since the late arrival at his house he has been made acquainted with a "aqual ler." There is a man ia Bourbon county who has so much money that he wants to bet $50 that the Populists will carry the leg islature and that Lewelling and the en tire ticket will be elected. Two men at Great Bend Lave I sea ar rested for harvesting crops not belong ing to them. The opinion seems to pre vail that a man who could had a crop that far west this year is entitled to it Peabody Graphic: The manufacture of sorghum molasses In Kaosaa has in creased to such an extent of late years, that it is now nearly equal to supplying the demands of the Kaneas mutual admi ration society. There will be a Sucker's reunion at Arcadia September 13.

She won't hev nuthln to do but cascade and leap and foam and cadence, and I kin assure the confidin pub llo that she will do business right along without regard to the weather. Down thar will be a placid lake, with canals leadln among var'ua green islets. On each Islet thar will be a Grecian pagoda. Gon dolas will float up and down in a perfeck ly harmless way, follered by boys In ca noes bearin plugs of terbacker and sunthin to drink.

Austin K-Ecsa. The Conductor's Bail Break. To mind your own property is good gen eral advice, but to sic beside your own property in railway trains and other con veyances ia special advice worth minding. In the Harlem River suburban train one afternoon last week a man eat In the forward seat of the car, with a large, compact package beside him, which might have been a dry goods bundle. At Bartow on the sound he got off, waving adieu to some individual away ia the back and leaving the package behind him. No one noticed it until the train was Just steam ing out of the station, when it caught the conductor's eye. Quick as a wink he snatched it, and be fore there was time to call halt measured the distance between the moving train and the escaping traveler's heels, hurling the package within an inch of them like a champion hammer thrower, with a big shout of warning. Then a crash was heard loud enough to make every passenger strain forward and look out. The platform was strewn with fragments of fine china, which might have been portions of a dessert service, and simultaneously the conductor's arm was gripped by a man who rushed for ward from the rear of the car. "You blooming, confounded idiot!" he shouted. "How dare you touch my prop ertyl I'll make you pay for this, or else I'll make the company pay. What right had you to assume that my brother had anything to do with it?" And then the true situation dawned on every one present, whose sympathies, how ever, were with the conductor's reply. "I'm sorry you lost your property," he said. "I did the best I knew how when I thought I saw the real owner go ing. I couldn't tell 'twas breakable. Next time you'd better sit beside your own." New York Herald. Another Fleaanre Gone.

It is told of Horace Greeley that he once wrote a note to a brother editor in New York whose writing was equally illegible With his own. The recipient of the note, not being able to read it, sent It back by the same meseenger to Mr. Greeley for elucidation. Supposing it to be an answer to his own note, Mr. Greeley looked over it, but like wise was unable to read it and said to the boy: "Go take it back. What does the d d fool mean?" "Yes, sir," said the boy, "that Is Just what he says." Ex changeu In dn cements. He kissed her hand.

Harrison Whea the Council Aal&et II! ei to Olteharssthe Wldc wallc Inspector Beeaase lie Wasn't a Republican. When the hour for the city council meetinjr arrived last evening-, the mayor was absent and President Fallows called the council to order. Those members who answered to the roll call were Btevena, Stevenson, Ettlinger, Bradford, Fellows, Burjesa, Fulton and Griggs. The mayor came ia later and took the chair. The following1 resolution was read by the city clerk: "Resolved, That we hereby earnestly protest against the appointment of Rich ard liartrraves as sidewalk inspector and request the mayor to remove him from this position and appoint by and with the consent of the council a good Repub lican to till th.s lucrative and responsible position." The resolution was s'urned by the fol lowing councilnien: P. VV. Griggs. J. T. Fulton, J. L. Paltiaon, W. C. Stephen son, S. Kttlingor, r3. 3. Bradford, F. L Steven?, C. A- Fellows, Janit-s Burgess. The resolution was received silently until the mayor said: "A political resolution. What will you do with itr" Couuc.iman Fellows: "I move it be referred to the mayor with power to act." The Mayor: feel that an explana tion of the appointment should be made. When the time for the appointment of a sidewalk inspector arrived I consulted the city engineer about the appointment of a man who could act as sidewalk inspector and sewer inspector as well and thus do the work of two men. He said that Hargraves could do the work and I appointed him at $50 a month, when the sidewalk inspector alone has always received $35. I did. not inquire what his politics was, but understood he has been independent." Councilman Griggs: 'I inquired of the city engineer and he told me that Hargraves has done noihing but inspect sidewalks since he was appointed and there has been a great deal of complaint about his work. The engineer says he knows nothing about sewer work. There are enough good Republicans to fill the place, and besidas the council should be consulted about the appoint ment The mayor did not bring his name up for confirmation." The Mayor: "While I am a Republi can of the most rabid kind, I won't allow any one to dictate to m whether I shall appoint a Republican or a Democrat It is the qualiticatious wLich concern me, and I tiave tho interest of the city at heart I am mayor cf the whole peo ple." Councilman Burgess: "Does the may or mean to say that no Republican ia the city can do the work?" Councilman Bradford said he did not understand that the resolution was to be made a part of the minutes of the coun cil or he would not have signed it and Councilman Stevens said that the may or's explanation was satisfactory to him. A motion was made to adjpt the reso lution. Before the vote was taken the mayor announced that he would not be governed by the action of the council but would remove Hargraves if he was convinced he was incompetent The resolution was adopted by the fol lowing vote: Ayes Stephenson, Ettling er, Buresi, Fellows, Fuitou, Griggs. No Stevens, Bradford. A New Scavtnftr Ordinance. The new scavenger ordinance was presented which simply re-enacts the old ordinance but gives the mayor the pow er to appoint at once. The ordinance was made satisfactory to the opposing members by making the number to be appoiuted two or more instead of one or more and the ordinance was passed with out opposition. The question of appealing the Decker, Mullins Berry sewer case was to have been decided, but when the ma'ter was reached it was so late that it was defer red to the next meeting. Jk. New Station.

A. Fellows, chairman of the com mittee on ways and mean, made a re port on the right of the city to use the coal hole fund for prospecting for coal outside of the city. The commitiee held that the money cannot be used outside of the city but may be used w ithin the city limit. The report was adopted but no action on tbe expenditure of the money was taken. The Kansaa Avenue Iiiidg-o. The mayor reported that he had ex amined the Kansas avenue bridge and found it in vary poor condition tnd that a new bridge is very much needed. The piers will soon require repairs and the stringers are decayed and isplit oa the top by repeated Bailing of planks. He believed that strips might be laid across the stringers and -i-inch plank put down, without putting ia new striagsrs. He thought it would cot cost more than $1,2U0. The city engineer was in.-tructed to prepare an estimate in accordance with the suggestion of the mayor. City Finances.

United State District Attorney W. C. Perry, who is at his office in the federal building for a few days indignantly denies the story of Mr. P. C. Jacobsou, an Allen county settler, that he dictated or attempted to dictate who the settlers should employ in their fight against the M., K. l.. in the celebrated land-case. To a Statk Journal reporter who asked him about the charges made by Mr. Jacubson, Mr. Perry said: It is a lie," and then showed the reporter copies of two letters which he had written to Mr. Jacobson. The first of these letters was dated April 14th, 1894, in which Mr. Perry said he did not wish to be associated with W. F. Rightmire or any one else who had solicited employment in the case. In the next letter dated June 29th Mr. Perry said he had no desire to dictate who the settlers should employ as their attorney in the case and if Mr. Right mire should be employed assured Mr. Jacobson they would have no trouble in getting along together. In regard to the statement that his law partner, Mr. A. 1L Crane, was making a fat thing out of the case Mr. Perry said: "Mr. Crane was employed to look after the interest of some of the settlers before our partnership was formed and it was something with which I had nothing whatever to do. The settlers d.in't have to e lb ploy an attorney if they don't want to. Tne trouble with Jacobson is that he went down to Moran to give in his testimony and thare were about sixty settlers ahead of him and he got tired waiting and went home without giving in his evidence. "The settlers can employ whomever they please. The facts in the matter are, I have absolutely refused from the first to even intimate who I would prefer to be associated with in the case although I have been continually asked to name some one to look after the settlers' inter ests in the case."

STATE .TOXJJIXAT,. WEDNESDAY EVENING. SEPTEMBER 5. 1894. FOIt LITTLE FOLKS. THEY BUN A HANK. St. I.oui I the Home of tlie Thret Tooa; rut Financiers In the World. The three boys in tht3 accompanying pictr.re are the youngest bank officials in tho world. The olc est of them has been jroir.g to school only two years and probably washes sun.s ia addition f rom iii slate with very .-mity tears, and the youngest has not yeC Ik tea promoted to knee breaches. But, c h, my, what stir they nre making in tha financial world! All boys have toy bants that take from Fourth of July till Christmas to fill aacl fi?a m'mu:es to empty. ITouldn't they cpeu thair eye, though. x J4m x If they had a real bank, with grownup people just falling over eiich other to put $5 bills in if? That's the sort of thing that is happening to these boys in tha picture, and this i l ow it all cams about: They have a papa, 7. C. Lindsay, Er. who is a bookkeeper iu a jobbing house iu St. Louis. He is only 33 years old; bo, of cours?, he ha) not forgotten Low to play rnarblss and fly kite and tdow up balloon, like ictaepapaa have. "When this St. Louis papa comes home, lie ia ready to play le&piroj or perform surgical operations on toys, because he Tery properly thinks that he is abetter playmate for his svii boys than any they can Cud on the s;ret Aad the leys think v too. He intends to have his boy grow up inen nnd not toughs or dudos. Young as they are, he has taught them to t brave and generous and truthful and good tempered. Lat winter ha thought it about time to teach them to save aaoaey. So one evening he called a meeting ia the big armchair and asked the boys how they would like to start a bank. So then and there they elected officers. Papa was to he president; Louis H. aged (if years, vico preside.it; Robert T., aged years, cashier, and Richard W. agd 5 years, and W. C. Lindsay, Jr., aged 1 year, directors. When the meeting adjourned, the youngest director w;.s fast asleep in the president's jtrins. It v;as decided to capitalize tho Lank at $100 and issue 100 shares at $1 each and to pay some thing each watk on t ie shares, ay amount from a ceist up being received and tho proper f redit given. As fast as theso s-bmvs ere paid up certificates r.re issued, signed by tho president and cashier. Tho very next day a Lirlar proof toy pate, a st of looks ;u;d printed stock certificates wcr o bought at a cost of 3. 50, which wuh charged to the expense BPcomit: I'ifty-imo shares wero taken by tho Lindsay family and 4 J sold. Then there was a call fur more. Tho capital stock has been increased to $Z'J0 and nil tho shares taken in blocks of live. At present tho bank is inakinpr loans in small amounts itt the ra;o of o per cent a month and now holds $i5 of paper at this rate. They have st t their mark at $100 per share and confi lently expect to make each shv.ro worth that amount by the time the eafhier attains his major ity. Amou.jr ti e stockholders are resi dents of Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi. The stock was nearly all sold to children, the youngest stockholder biug Miss Mabel Meeks of St. Louis, who ia only eigut months old. As soon ad $300 is paid ia it will be invested iu rel eitat. .A.

Cut out of thin cardboard a d;k tha .ize of a quar ter aod make in the middle of it a cir cular hole the size cf a penny. Stick j this disk iu tha center of a plate, when your toy is ready for uso. Now obtain a small marble and endeavor to get it into the circular hols cf the disk. A certain amount of momentum nest be civen to the marble to get it in, but unless you are very careful the ssma momentum will carry it out again. The trick car be easily performed by bringing f marble along- the disk and then low ing the plate quickly, m if dropping This brings the ball over the hole, a as it will not drop qui:e so quickly tho plat- it falls into tie hole, and trick is done.

Stanton Iica tha Act of tha Sew Vorlt Constitutional Conreiitloa. I am lisked how I feel about the ac tion of the constitutional conventioa on the suffrage question. Suppose I had had a tine estate left me with executors who, as prodigals, were in extravagance, dissipation, fraud and corruption rapidly depriving my children and myself of the ir.ens of fu ture livelihood. Th n suppose I had ap plied to the courts to vindicate ray rights, t appoint new executors or to allow me to administer the estate. Then upposa my appeal was made to snail body composed mainly of very ordinary men, who said thay could do nothing; that the case was not of Sufficient con sequence for the consideration of ea august body or even to submit is foi adjudication to a more ordinary Lidy, the people. In the nature cf tbitu;s how must a woman feel nndar such circumstancesi Depressed, indignant, humiliated, anx ious and apprehensive for tha future. That is aa I feel now. Tha condition of our country, the dis graceful proceedings in Washington, the strikes, the tarrible revelations of the wholesale corruption in our metrop olis and in every department of govern ment as well as in the business world, brought to light by investigating com mittees; tha rapid concentration of wealth in the hands of tho few all this fill me with apprehension as to the safety and stability of a government composed of men alone Women and children have equal rights and interests iu thia heritage left us by the fathers, and I am not willing to trust our fu ture welfare in such hands as adminis ter our government today. If we stand parleying with such classes in power another half century, the mass of the people will have no rights, privileges or immunities for which to contend. We must prepare at once for political action and inaugurate a people's party. Rejected by Republic ans and Democrats, our political aris tocracy, we must cast our lot with the laboring masses, of whom many thou sand joined us in our petition for the right of suffrage. If we are to save anything from the wreck of our national fortunes, we must try some new methods of action at once. When 97 men can play football with the right3 of half the people in the state, and that half meekly accept the abject condition of mere subjects in apo called republic iu direct -violation of every principle of our government, tha wom en of the Empire State might as well be under the czar of Russia as the Amer ican flag. We have pleaded our cause in congress and courts and the halls of state legislation, but failed thus far at every point. What next? The excuse of the 07 men who voted "No" was frivo lous to tho last degree. They said "the majority of tho women of tho state did not make the demand." Have the majority of lawyers of the state a-sked for the proposed changes in the judiciary article? Have a majority of the people in New York city asked for the proposed changes in the method of governing our metropolis? Elizabeth Cady Stanton in New York Sun. SUo Saved aa Kspress Train. Margaret MacDouald, a 19-year-old girl, station agent for tho Lehigh Valley railroad at Warrior Run, Pa., a few weeks ago saved an cipi-oss train from being telescoped by a runaway engine on a down grade by her quickness; and presence of mhid. The train had stop ped to take on an invalid passenger when she heard the noise of the ap proaching engine. Supposing it to bo a train, she ordered a man to run back and flag it. but at the same time or dered the passenger train to start at full speed without waiting lor the passc-a-Ker. The latter order saved tho train, for, although the runaway engine over took it at the foot of tho grade, the train was then under such .headway that the shock was almost imperceptible. Mi.-ss MrfcDcnald applied for the place as station agent when her brother who held it resigned a year ago. While wait ing to get a man ag'-nt the company al lowed her to run the office, and so well did she attend to the duties that sho has since been made the regular agent. The tation is a most important one, being at the foot of the h:avy mountain grade, where the single track converges into the many which lead to this city. Woman's Journal.

Ia some Beasona and with many fruits there ii little trouble in making these preserves keep, but at other times it seems as it the greatest care were bound to be de feated and all skill were naught Th8 sweetmeats will ferment and epoil. A chemist of this city, who has been making' a special study of the life aud growth of fsrment plants, says the rem edy for this is double boiling. This mast be don with a certain reason and 6ystem. If proper precautious are not observed, he says, yoa might keep right on boiling the thiDs time and again all the year round, and still they would spoil. Boiling will kill all the ferment plants that are developed from tha epores. bat it will not kill the spores. Spores of ferment plants require only from eight to twelve hoars to develop. If they are left longer than this, the spores will have become new plants and in turn have deposited new spores. To get rid of plants and spores, therefore, the preserves should have first a good boiling and ba set away in sealed ves sels, and then about eight hours later be brought again just to a boiling heat Treated in this way, the chemist says, no further trouble can occur unless new ferments get in from outside sources. New York Sun. Woman's Movement In Mexico. Our Bister republio to the south has been invaded by the movement for the enfranchisement of woman, and just now the movement is being discussed by the Mexican press with no little an imation. The immediate cause of the present interest was the refusal of one of the city courts to license a young lady law student to practice before it. The writers of Mexico have long been urg ing the broadening of woman's sphere and advising ladies to enter positions which had hitherto been monopolized by the men. They were advised to be come saleswomen, stenographers, book keepers, telegraphers, etc., and some two years ago, when a young lady gradu ated at r-'edical school and was ad mitted to practice medicine, the papers of the country had a good deal to say about the great advance in woman's work. The great majority of them, however. Indorse the opinion of the court, which does not want to see a female lawyer. They think that the legal profession is too near the ballot box, and that when women ara allowed to practice law they cannot well be hindered from voting, which Mexico is a good ways from be ing prepared for yet. New Orleans Pio ayune. Sirs. George Gould. Mrs. George Gould has a new neck lace that ia positively dazzling and is said to contain some of the finest stones seen in England for a long time. It seems when the Goulds sailed to con quer English society Mrs. Gould, of course, had jewels, diamonds and neck laces, for that matter. These were quite well enough for America and Lakewood, but would not do at all for anything so grand as England. So the order was given for something that was a shade finer than any necklace Mrs. Gould wat likely to meet, and the result is another feather in America's cap. It also seems that we are going to lose the Goulds; that English society has fallen so deeply In love with pretty Edith Kingdon that was, or she has found them so captivating, that the Goulds will not let their' society laurels cool, and it may be a long time before New York society has the chance to take the Goulds by the hand and wel come them into the Four Ilundred. In October they may shine on the United States, but in a few weeks will pack up the family wardrobe, its jewel cages and silver cases, cut some more coupons and hurry back to England. New York JcurnaL A tTnlqae Dress. The latest addition to the fashionable wardrobe ia an odd garment made with out sleeves. It's a chic affair, however, and bids fair to be very popular. The first bodioe of this description was born in France. It was made of black chiffon over black lace. Flimsy bows of the chiffon graced each shoulder. These bows were the only semblance of sleeves which the bodice possessed. But, odd as the idea may seem, sets of sleeves were sold with it. They were all of some sheer material like chiffon or crepe de chine, but mads according to a variety of designs. One pair of sleeves were of white chiffon ruffles and had a soft, billowy appearance very effective. Another pair were very bonffant scarlet puffs. The bodice is to be worn with different skirts, and the idea is to have the sleeves match the shirt in color. The Parisian modiste is certainly unique. New York World. Catharine Cole. The friends and she has scores of them of Catharine Cole (Margaret Field) will be pleased to learn that late letters from Bavaria, where she is now under treatment for a nervous malady, ring encouraging news. The change, rest and treatment are all proving bene ficial, and Mrs. Field, in letters written by herself, gives evidence of seeming hopefol of the results of the experiment with Father Kniepp's remedies The rel atives of this gifted and greatly beloved writer are indulging in the hope that she will come home at least on a fair way to recovery. The Wrongs of Women. Mrs. Charles Henrotin, the wife of a Chicago banker and herself a leader of society, recently addressed a socialis tic meeting of over 1,000 men and wom en at Kimball hall, Chicago, upon the wrongs of women wage earners and the advantages of the eight hour law, re counting the results of her investiga tions in printing offices, sweating shops and other places where the working day Is practically without a limit I1TSTERIES!
