Mis Carrie Lowe, daughter of Gen. A. L. Lowe of Fort Worth, 'lexas, was in the parale carding the colors of the Dupont naval association of Texas. She ia a guest of Admiral Osborn, having stepped olf hre on her way to New Vera. She was the lone representative of the Lone Star state in the parade of tho salts, ind her appearance elicited unbounded enthusiasm. Commandant W. S. Buckland was in command of the armed canJps, which presented a martial front. The lint Ohio regiment sona of vete rans occupied the right of the line togeth er with the armed camps. The column wts reviewed by the national officers from a Bti.nl ou Cedar avenue, Alle gheney. Miss Daisy Title, the mascot of the naval veterans who arrived yesterday from Cincinnati, was in the parade.

To morrow will be a general holiday, as the mayors of Pittsburg and Allegheny have issued proclamations, asking that as much business as possible be suspended, so that as many people may see the parade as possible. Down town streets are al most impassible, so great are the crowds which closely pack the sidewalks. It is expected that ;;00,u0j strangers will b in the city tonight exclusive of the vet erans and their relatives.

Hesolut ons are to be presented at this alternoon's nesnion of the Naval Veterans association, asking congress to establish t college for the education of daughters of soldiers and sailors.

Carl Browu's IJecorativi' Art Makei Ohio People ta :id Aghast. Massillon, Sept. 20. Grand Com mander Carl Browne of the Commonweal of' Christ, received his friends in Mr. Coxey's amp itheater this morning in bare feet, arrayed in troupers and undershirt and pointed with prida to the evidences of his skill in perfuming miracles on circus wagons. Thus far four wagons have teen reincarnated with tho twin souls of Coxey and Browne, as the de scription below will testify. The ad vance wagon, finished first, in order that it may start out today, boare such in scriptions as "Coxey Advance Wagon," "Keep Of" the Gras-i,'' "Liberty Was Crushed to Death May 1, 18 4," "Inter est on Bonds Broujut Us Panics and Poverty; Coxey's Noa-interJst-Bearing Bonds- Will Give Us Peace aud Prosperity." On one sido a lion with blood drippiug from its mouth rep resents the English national banking sys tem, and the blood appears to be interest ou bonds being spilled on the American people, who seem to be standing ou their heads. On the reverse side a white horse labeled Coxey is being ridden by a red headed circus girl who is called the com monweal, while a gentiernan named Tay lor astride of a mule looks up and says: "Mela Gott! dot Coxey was a runner." Off in parenthesis somebody else say: "Wall street left for once.' The baud wagon has on its rear end a picture of the great Coxey peering through prison bars, and above the picture is the word 'Unity." On either side are representa tions of a storm-tossed ship and a moun tain' house, both supposed to be "mort gaged to Wall street." The literature wagon bears a quotation from Victor Hugo, reading: "'lhe para dise of the rich is made out of the hells of the poor." Walter Scott is drawn upon for this: "Hereditary bondsmen, know ye not, who would be free themselves must strike the blow?" to which Coxey adds: 'Use the bailot instead of the blow." A picture on one sida seems to suggest that "even the horses are parading for Coxey's good-road-bill." and on the other a reformed leopard named "interest on bonds" is crouching in an African jungle, where he is thought to be lying in wait for taxpayers. The platform wagon, on which the elect will sr. eak, is covered by portraits of Washington, Jeiferson, Lincoln aud Grant, and pictures of wiiat Mr. Browne calla "three great epochs in American history,"' namely, the revolution in 1776, the war of the rebellion, and Coxey's march on the capital. In tho latter pic ture Mr. Browne, Coxey and Miaa Mamie Coxey loom up conspicuously, and the dome of the capitol is seea in the dis tance. FREE THINKERS FINISH. They Close Their Session Toilay. Artz Will ISe One of the Lecturers. The Kansas Free Thinkers closed their session at Lincoln post hall this morning. There were three meetings at the hall Saturday, aud on Sunday morning at the City park J hn E. Hems burg spose to a large audience on "Contradictious of tho Bible." In the afternoon Mrs. Lois Wais brookor spoke at the park her subject being "Conditions Required for Perfect Motherhood." "Until all conditions per taining to motherhood are studiously correct, we can have no perfect human race," she said. "The sex conditions as they now exist are responsible for the filling of our jails and asylums." There were nearly 500 people present. Prof. W. S. Bell also talked on "Liberty and Morality." The evening meeting was held at the hall and a good many people could not gain admittance. John Radford spoke on -'The New Capitalization." The speech was a criticism of the present linancial conditions and leaned to the sub-treasury idea. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Mrs. Etta Semp'e of Ottawa; secretary, Moses Har mony treasurer, Marie Greene. The fol lowing lecturers were appointed: Alexan der ii jse of Lawrece. James Pontius of Washington and II. II. Artz of Topeka. I he next meeting of the association w ill bo held in Ottawa in August.

Mayor Harrison has decided to veto the resolution passed at the last meeting of the council requesting him to remove the sidewalk and sewer inspector, Rich ard llargraves, and appoint a good Re publican in his place. Ho said in refer ence to tha matter and the reason his nams was not presented to tho council for confirmation "I bold that temporary appointments which are intended to run for only a short time cannot be submitted to the council for continuation because the state statute provides that when ap pointed and confirmed by the council they must for two years. I also think that the council room is a place to trans act public business for the whole city and not a place to air political grievances or try and make political capital." PEKItY, OK., FLOODED.

PEFFER HERE The Kansas Senator Arrives at Home Today. This Congress a "Scandalous and Stupendous Failure," Says 3Ir. Peft'ei A General Grab Came BY REPRESENTATIVES. Each Trying- to Get What He Could. The Senator Tells Why He Voted for Protection ON SALT AND WOOL Humiliating Surrender to the Suirar Trust. Senator and Mrs. Wm. A. Peffer ar rived in Topeka at 1 o'clock today on a liock Islaud train. "I am delighted to get home," said the senator to a Journal reporter. "I think Topeka is the handsomest place iu the country and I have never thought it looked so pretty as now. I feel prouder of my little home because it is home, than I ever have been before." "Do you consider the work of the last congress satisfactory'."" asked the Jouu sal man. "Do I?" and the senator looked a trifle ruliled. "I consider the Fifty-third con gress the most stupendous failure in the history of the nation. Not a single act of public benefit was passed." "What is vour opinion of the new tariff bill?" "I don't like to talk about it. The proceedings were so scandalous that I do not enjoy talking about it. I speak of the general discussion and the complete surrender of the Democrats to a handful of men. There were thirty eight northern and southern Democrats iu favor of what has always been advo cated by the Democratic party, but there were six eastern men, who call them selves Damocrats, but who are really Re publicans, controlled that majority in tho senate. "At no time could they get a majority to support the proposed measure without a caucus, so they held the caucus and gave instructions to have a bill prepared which would be satisfactory. "Then the sugar trust tame .'in with a demand that the sugar schedule be changed, and the six men stood ont and said we will have this bill or nothing, and then came the surrender. How humiliating to see a large body of men lay down their arms before a half dozen." "Why did you vote to put a duty on galfr" asked tiie reporter. "1 voted for a duty on both salt and wool, though I am really in favor of both free salt and free wool. I discovered that the tariff legislation meant legisla tion in favor of class interests, and tho revenue feature was completely lost sight of. I siiowed the senate that all our Kansas salt makers wanted was to retain their territory that is that some duty be put upon salt so that the area they supply might not be encroach ed upon by foreign salt. "1 favored a duty on wool because the bill proposed putting a duty on woolen, troods, and I wanted the Kansas farmers who raise the wool, to be treated as well as the manufacturers. "This whole thing was a grab game and I simply did my best to see that Kausas peoplo were treated as well as other classes." The reporter informed Senator Peffer of the withdrawal of Congressman Hudson in the Third district. "I know absolutely nothing about that," said the senator, "but I un ler stood he wm to be taken oil for political reasons. If it is true that he has de clined to be a candidate for bnsiues3 reasons I am not surprised. Anyone who expects to make money out of the posi tion will be disappointed." The senator is 63 years old today but he bears his age well and looks better and younger than when he last left Topeka. Knglnrers' 3fw Order. Dknvek, Sept. 10. Two hundred dele gates to the second national convention of the Traveling Engineers association, arrived in Denver today from the oast. The convention will open in this city to morrow. The association is a new non secret organization, whose object is to improve the locomotive engineer service of American railroads. The Public felionld lie l.rncrom. No such races have been held for years anywhere as those we are to have in Topeka this year, without the public be j ing called upon to contribute largely to defray the expense. The managers of our races only aU each person to buy a ticket. It is hardly possible to aak for less. The Iie V, anted to Interfere. London, Sept. 10. A special dispatch received here today from Rome, says that the pope is said to have expressed a wish to arrange the tioubles between China and Japan, but was prevented by France, who feared that ihe intervention of the church would undo the work France was carrying on in the east. lioromotive Firemen.

San Francisco, Sept. 10. The Exami ner says: Mrs. Stanford has paid olf the last 'of the debts due from the Stanford estate and has thia early got its great properties in almost perfect order. She is now anxious for a distribution of the estate, so that she may secure personal control of the millions of which she ia now executrix. Aa soon as the distribution is ordered, she will begin operations in a new held. Then, under her personal supervision, the erection of half a million dollars worth of new buildings and the early expansion of th3 university to three time3 itj present magnitude, will be begun. The three great estates, the Palo Alto, Gridley and Vina ranches, 8,000, 17,0lKJ and CJ.000 acres, respectively, on which. Senator Stanford lavished expense and experiments, have been put on a strictly business basis. y The brandy at Vina, of which Senator Stanford never sold a gallon, is still going to Europe and 4 elsewhere iu immense quantities. The biggest claim against the estate is the $15,000,000 claim which Attorney General Olney has presented ou behalf of the government to Mrs. Stanford, as executrix. This suit i3 an annoyance to Mrs. Stan ford, because so long aa it is unsettled it will prevent her from spending a doilar of the estate in behalf of the university. The plau3 for the early enlargement of the insvitution includes a large amount of now apparatus, the early purchase of 50, 000 books, the employment of a great many new professors and instructors and the opening of new departments. The plaus for the future, m settled up on, include a conservatory of music that shall be equal to anything iu America, the equipment of a great art school de partment of professional instruction, etc. As soon as distribution is effected, the Stanford university will at once have ad ded to its available income the income of $17,000,000. It will from that time have practically the in come of the entire Stanford fortume, which in time3 of ordinary prosperity would exceed, it is stated, on good au thority, $1,500,000 a year. Its income will be three times that of Harvard, the richest of American universities, aud greater than that of the University of Berlin. 31 ASS ACRED.

The Populist Nominee in the Third District, Eefuses to Run for Congress This Time. HE FORESEES DEFEAT Because the Democrats Will Not Endorse Him. But Will Vote For Their Nom inee, Sanp. Chairman Breideuthal of the Populist state central committee this morning re ceived definite information of the with drawal from the congressional race in the Third district of Jeff Hudson, the present congressman. Hudson was nominated as a fusion candidate by the Populists two years ago to succeed Ben Clover, and was elected by a majority of 2,"00 over Ex Governor Humphrey. This year the Populists renominated Hudson, but the Democrats refused to endorse him and have nominated W. F. Sapp of Galena. Hudson is a shrewd enough politician to see that ho could not be re-elected without tho Democratic endorsement and refuses to run. The Populist convention which renom inated Hudson was held at Cherryvale, June 27, but Hudson had up to Saturday neither accepted aor rejected the nomi nation. The congressional committee met at Cherryvale Saturday and Hudson made a speech, in which ho declined to be a candidate for re-election. Chairman Breidenthal says Hudson ia not ambitious, politically, and has for some time been thinking of retiring to private life again, as his business inter ests demand his persona! attention. The Populist congressional committee has called another convention to be held at Cherryvale, September 27, when another candidate will be nominated. Chairman Breidenthal says he is confi dent his party wiil elect the congress man in the Third district but who the nominee will be no one can tell. State Senator Reiley of Parsons, ex Speaker Dunsmore and El Ridgely of Parsons have all been mentioned in connection with tho nomination. Senator S. S. Kirkpatrick, tho Repub lican candidate is making a vigorous canvass of the district. WILL HE PROSECUTED.

Safford says tho principals who took part in the prize fight yesterday (referred to in another place) will be prosecuted.

THOSE IMPLICATED Are Known and Will Be Placed in Jail. Memphis, Term., Sept. 10. The whole plot of the lynchmjr of six alleged negro incendiaries near Milling-ton, Tena, on the night of August 31 has been laid bare, and before many hours elapse, every man im plicated in the conspiracy will be in jail. Robert McCarver, son of J. A. McCarver, sheriff of Shelby county, is the man who exposed the conspira tors. He was invited before the grand jury and told the whole story. Youn? AlcUarver at first refused to gdve testi mony, but when given the alternative of going- to jail for contempt of coart, or revealing- the plot, he chose the latter. In his testimony before the grand jury MeGarver eaid he was invited to participate in the massacre of the negroes by H. N. ISmith, one of the men now in the county jail under in dictment for murder in the lirjt degree for complicity in the lynching-, fc-mith gave ilcGarver the names of the men who would compose the mot), and told how the negroes would be arrested by Detective W. S. Richard Bon, placed in wagon and driven to Big Creek Swamp, where the raob would be in waiting. When the invitation to assist in the assassihation was made to young Me Garver it was represented that his father knew of it, and that Judge Cooper of the criminal court was not in the dark. These representation were untrue, and were made by Smith, with the intention, if possible, of mix ing Sheriff MeGarver in the affair through his son, so that his hands would be tied if an investigation should be instituted by the authori ties. Young MeGarver declined to join the mob, but the lynching cams off in due time. MeGarver, the day after the lynch ing, disclosed the details of the plot to Joseph Thers and Hoffman; the a the grand jury obtained its first in formation about the conspiracy and the importance of McGarver's testi mony. Cox. who denied all knowledge cf the affair in his testimony before tbva grand jury, was inlieted for perjury. Criminal Court Jaige Cooper, after hearing of McGarver's confession, or dered him placed under 310,000 bond to insure his presence at the trial of th3 lynchers. HEAR END COLLISION. Bad Kailroad Wreck In the TToonala Tunnel Two Killed, Three Injure. 1. North Akamj, Mass., Sep. 10. Tha most horrible disaster known in this vicinity took place on the Fitchburg road last evening in tve Iloosaic tun nel, a short distance east of the Cen tral shaft. The accident was caused by a rear end collision between east bound freight trains, and, as near as can be ascertained, happened about 10:30 p. m. A freight train had stopped to repair an engine which had broken down, and at about the sama time the west bound express train passed through the tunnel, filling is with smoke. A second east bound freight train was allowed to enter the tunnel, contrary to the rules of the road, and the engineer being un able, on account of the dense smoke left by the passenger train, to dis tinguish the lights from the train from the lights on the walls of tho tunnel, went into it with a crash. A fearful disaster was the result, both trains were badly wrecked. The tunnel was blocked, and two men killed outright and three seriously in jured. The east portal operator, who waa In charge of the signal lights at tho time, is confined in the police station on the charge of criminal careless ness. W. Uodgkins, west portal operator, has also been placed under arrest. He claims he received the "ok" from the east end operator and conse quently changed his signal. The au thorities will make a thorough in vestigation. FITE HUNDRED DEAD. Ieatb L!t In Pine Coanty Trill Probably Ficeed lb sit utrb.r. Hinckley-, Minn., Sept. 10. Five bodies were found last night in a cel lar on a hill just north of the Kettle river, and were buried where found. It is believed here that the death list will exceed 500, as something like 100 are still unaccounted for, according to Coroner Cowan's official statement. IMdn't Know It Was Loaded. Caldwell, Kan., Sept. 10. John Eaves shot and mortally wounded John Ward, both colored, in this city at 4 o'clock yesterday. The two boys were in a room over the First National bank and Eaves pointed a revolver at Ward and snapped it twice. Ward told him to desist, as he could see the loads in the revolver, and turned to leave the room. Eaves again pulled the trigger and the gun went orf, striking Ward in the back just below the left scapula, passing over the heart. The boys were" about 15 years old, and Eaves is now under arrest. Emporia Hotels Katdad. Emporia., Kan., Sept. 10. Three of Emporia's principal hotals were raided by a sherirF s posse, under au thority of a warrant charging th.am with violation of tha Murray liquor law, and in two of them, the Park place and the Sixth Avenue hotel, in toxicating liquors were found. The proprietors gave bond for their ap pearance at the October term of court. Prescoti Co. will remove to Ka 118 Welt Eighth this month. MORE FOREST FIRES. Alarm Occasioned in tbs Kejflon lrotiai Dulutll by Kew Oatbrask. Duluth, Minn., Sept. 10. Forest fires were renewed again yesterday ia this region by a heavy southwest gale, which .steadily increased in fcrce. The bright sun was shut out and the Horizon again took on the sickly yellow coat of the fatal Satur day a week ago. There was great excitement here and everyone rushed to the telegraph and train dispatch ers' o face 3. The sensation was intensified by the breaking out of the forest fires in the city limits. Fire crept around in the undergrowth at Oneata and caused some apprehension, for this is in the vicinity of the Mesaba ore district. Then an alarm came in from Duluth heights, a suburb at the top of the hill, which is surrounded by timber. The fire department sent up a de tachment, wnich, a little later, sent for a fire engine. Then excitement was at fever heat, for news had been coming in of the sidetracking of a St. Paul and Duluth passenger train be cause of fires on all sides of them. At Kerrick, the inhabitants put in the afternoon fighting the fire, but thought in the evening the danger was over. Barnum, too, had a narrow escape all the afternoon. At Kimberly, oa the Northern Pa cific, only a large gang of railway la borers saved the town. A NEW DIPHTHERIA CURE. Blood Pern m Method of Dn Bebrlny (utiles Wonderful Results. Berlin, Sept. 10. The diphtheria cure of Dr. Behring bf Berlin, a disci ple of Professor Koch, has been ex ploited at the liudapesth medical congress and indorsed by many of the delegates present. Dr. Behr ing's cure is called a blood serum. By successive and increased doses, diphtheria virus was injected into animals and they gradually acquired immunity against the malady. The blood of such animals, injected into other animals, had the eifect of con ferring immunity upon the latter or healing them if suffering from diph theria. Of this blood Dr. Behring ex tracted the serum and has injected it into human beings with wonderful results. Professor Ileubner of Berlin, and Professor Roux of Paris, indorsed the cure at the congress. Professor Rouat sail he had applied it at the Children 's hospital, where, up to last year, 60 per cent of the cases of diptheria end ed fatally. This year he had inocu lated over 400 children with the ser um and the mortality fell from 60 to 15 per cent. After a few injections the malady changed almost instantly to fever and then soon disappeared. PHARMACEUTICAL ROYCOT. VTUI JVot Patronize Manufacturers Who JFarnlnh Physicians With Supplies. AsimiLLE, N. C, Sept. 10. The American Pharmacuetical association voted to boycott manufacturers who furnish physicians with their manu factured products for use in dispensing prescriptions. It is claimed by the druggists that year by year the doc tors are getting more and more into the habit of filling their own. pre scriptions and dispensing drugs from their ofiices, greatly to the detriment of the prescription business of the drug stores. The resolution author izing the boycott was the work of Professor Whitney of Boston, and was adopted without dissent. Hatch Renominated. IIassibal, Mo., Sept. 10. William Henry Hatch, representative in con gress from this, the First Missouri district, and author of the Hatch anti options bill, will doubtless be renom nated for congress by 300 or 400 ma jority. The above is shown by returns from the Democratic congressional primary elections just given out. Although these figures may be slight ly changed when the official returns are received. Congressman Hatch's nomination seems certain. Ten Persons Killed. Bbtjssels, Sept. 10. Ten persons were killed and twenty persons in jured by the wreck of the Paris and Cologne express yesterday. The ac cident happened at Apilly, and was caused by a collision of the express train with a freight train which was being shunted. Working- Hours Increased. Sedalia, Mo., Sept. 10. The Mis souri, Kansas and Texas posted a no tice in their Sedalia shops that in future the working hours would be increased from forty-eight to fifty four hours per week. HARVEST EXCURSIONS.

It is reported that Admiral Tieng, commander of the Pei Yang squadron, has been de graded for cowardice and incapacity and that he has been deprived of the peacock feather and is ordered to leave the fleet and take a shore com mand. The native papers say that Li Hung Chang is working to procure the mediation of England and Russia in the war with Japan. The emperor and dowag-er empress are, it is said, furious at the suggestion and refuse to listen to it. Victoria, B. C, Sept. 10. The Northern Pacific liner Sikh, from Yokohama, brings interesting ad vices of the war in the Orient. The reason given by the commander of the Japanese warship Naniwa Kan, when asked why he fired upon the Kow Shung, seeing she was flying the British flag, is now given for the first time, and is certainly pertinent: "Because she was sailing under false colors, was carrying Ch 1 ue.se troops and had been sold tj tn-j Chinese gov ernment and fully paid for Notwithstanding the explanation the same paper which gives it public ity announces that the sum of $T."0,- 000 has been agreed to by the Japan ese government as a reparation for the sinking of Captain Galworthy's vessel and compensation to those de pendent upon the Europeans lost th her. Both China and Japan are at pres ent keenly alert for articles contra band of war and to this the delay in the arrival of the Sikh is attributable. The government has declined to con sider rice as a contraband of war, but both belligerents claim it to be such, and use every endeavor to intercept rice carrying vessels. The Sikh was delayed at Shanghai by a Chinese gun boat which made an attempt to gain possession of the rice portion of her cargo. The British consul objected and the merchantman was allowed to proceed. It is almost impossible to get relia ble war news anywhere in the Ea st, even at Shanghai. This trip the stea-ner passed very close to the Foo Choo forts and saw the Chinese garri son drawn up in line. They were all attired in flowing sack gowns of gaudy color and had high, three-cornered silk hats, and presented a curi ous spectacle. These forts are in charge of an En glishman, the son of a naval otlicer, and are said to b exceedingly strong. One of their eighty ton guns burst some time ago, killing several men. It is generally understood that this occurred through ignorance in han dling it- China is now hurrying an army of hundreds of thousands of men through Northern China to Corea, but as they are subsisting on the products of the country through which they are passing and most of it is mount ainous, it is hard to say with what success it will meet. Most of the men enlisted and draft ed into the Chinese army are coolies of the low order. The Chinese have been offering great inducements to Europeans and Americans to enter their service and have sectired many. On the other hand fue Japanese will have no outsiders in any branch of the service. MORA, MINN., THREATENED That Villagre Believed to Have Seen Burned by Fores Fires. Dulvtii, Minn., Sept. 10. At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon the opera tor at Mora, on the Eastern Min nesota, was chatting with the opera tor at Duluth about the threatening of the fire. Instantly he said: "It's getting awful hot down here. The people have nearly all taken refuge in Snake river, and I'll have to follow unless there's a let-up." Just a few minutes passed, and he said: "I fly. Thirty." Tests of the wires a few moments later proved they had gone up, and it has been impossible to raise Mora since. Tlie people took warning in time, and all are believed to be safe. Ends in a Murder. Parts, Mo., Sept. 10. A difficulty occurred between A. T. Howser and Ed Murr two miles south of Paris yesterday afternoon when Murr shot Howser and escaped. Howser will die. BRIEFS BY WIRE. It is alleged that China has pur chased the entire naval fleet of Chili. Japan asserts that she is having no trouble floating her war loan of 30, 000.000 yen. Secretary Carlisle is discharging all the Republicans in the treasury de partment. Turner opera house and adjacent buildings at Monroe City, Mo., were burned. The police of Chicago removed ob jectionable advertisements from the billboards. The east-bound Toledo passenger train was wrecked at Staunton, 111. Two men were killed. The cruiser Columbia has been or dered to convey American refugees from Port Limon to Bluefields, whence they fled. Governor Moseley of the Chieka eaw nation has appointed his cabinet. Several representatives were unseated because of fraud at the polls. Cheap It-te Knot. 9AHTA FE ROUTE. Chicago, Pittsburg, Columbus, Cleve land, Indianapolis, nd other eastern points, f 21.50 for the round trip, by the Santa Fe route. D. Holmes. druggUr, 731 Kansas ava HAVE TAKEN PITTSBURG. the Grand Army In Possession of the Pennsylvania City. Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 10. "Com rades" and friends have been flock ing into Pittsburg, taking complete possession of the city. It is estimated that on the night before the opening of the twenty-eighth national en campment at least 100,000 visitors were here and to-day'3 arrivals will swell the number. A copious shower fell yesterday afternoon, clearing the atmosphere and tem pering the heat so that sight seeing j nas oeen maae pleasant. Ihis had i the effect of crowding the streets to an extent never before witnessed in 1 Pittsburg, which is rather a staid old i town and noted for its quietude on j the Sabbath. The saloons were closed, 1 of course, but other business was transacted in a way which made the average citizen imagine that he was 1 away from home visiting some other i place not so stiff in the observance of the blue laws. j Among the noted arrivals were two men from Honolulu. They represent the Q. A. R. in Hawaii and were de termined to be present at the last en campment which they will likely ever enjoy. j The Women's Relief corps head quarters has been a place of activity all day. No business was transacted, i but as each member of the corps would arrive she was taken to head quarters and male to feel at home. About the only matter that would be called disagreeable in connection with the encampment so far is the feeling of bitterness felt by the G. A. R. people at the action of the rail roads in refusing a one-cent a mile rate for near-by towns, thereby keep ing down the number of visitors at least 20,000. It has cropped out that the subject will be introduced in the convention and a resolution offered, backed by the delegates from Penn sylvania and Ohio, to the effect that hereafter no encampments will be held, but that the delegates, 1,200 in number, meet and transact necessary business at the expense of their re spective posts without asking favors from the railroads. The veterans can not understand why, in the past, Columbus and Milwaukee were grant ed the 1-cent rate Pittsburg denied it. From what can be learned the Cleveland people are leading the re volt. It is not known how the resolu tion will be received. The first fatality among the veter ans to be reported is the sudden death of Comrade Louis Treasler of McClure, Snyder county, Pa. He was a member of post 335. Ou arrival at the post headquarters Treasler was completely exhausted and died of weak heart within fifteen minutes after reaching the building. THEY MUST ACQUIESCE. Satolll Declines to Interfere In the Bishop Bonacum Trouble. Omaha, Neb., Sept. 10. A week ago the priests in the Nebraska diocese in rebellion against the. authority of Bishop Bonacum sent a committee to Archbishop Satolli to secure relief from what they term the prelate's tyranny. This includes three-quarters of tho priests of the diocese. This commit tee returned yesterday. The mission was a failure, the ablegate refusing to interfere. The case in which the priests hoped to secure papal inter ference was the arbitrary removal of Father F, ,glish of Hastings, a very popular n, to an obscure location. They claim this is the result of the opposition of English to the bishop in tue recent trial. The priests of the Lincoln diocese, particularly those who attached their autographs to the charges against Bishop Bonacum, are given what might be called an eye-opener by the failure of the Hastings mission to Washington. It was hoped the able gate would interpose his authority and protect them from the wrath of the bishop, but as he professes to have no power in the premises, they will be obliged to take whatevei medicine the bishop may prescribe and com pound. OPPOSED TO S T R I li E S Grand Master Workman Sovereign Talks on the Subject. Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 10. The executive board of the Knights of Labor will hold its regular session in this city to-day. Grand Master Work man Sovereign and Grand Secretary McGuire are here. Speaking of the recent great strike Mr. Sovereign de clared that he was decidedly opposed to strikes. "I can't imagine," said he, "that an emergency might arise that would demand a strike, but generally speak- ing only temporary victories are ac- complished in tliat way. Strikes widen the breath between labor and its employers. All strikes are illegal and strikers are criminals. Workmen i must look for relief to some other source. When the committee gets through here it will adjourn to New Orleans. Menonites Goln if to Colorado. Denver, Col.. Sept. 10. A commit tee of six Russian Menonites from Hays City, Kan., left on the Denver and Rio Grande railroad last evening for the San Luis valley.

The Julius tower, not far from Ber lin, contaiua the war treasure of 120, 300,000 marks yielding no interest. This large sum, consisting of crowns nd double crowns, is from time to time, without long notice, counted by two members of the imperial debt sommittee. Entrance to the well g-uarded tower caa only be gained if these two members put their corupli sated keys in the keyhole simultane ously. Needless to say that there is always a sentry at the entrance door. A strict record is kept of the hour of opening and closing the tower. On opening it one enters at once into the rotunda, where the shining 120,01)0.000 marks are stored. This v?st sum is divided into twelve equal parts, each subdivided into ten others of the value of 1,000,000 each. This 1,000,000 is again distributed in ten bags of I0.OJ0 marks each, two-thirds of which sum is in ten-mark pieces. When a revis ion is ordered the number of the di vision and subdivisions to be counted is chosen at haphazzard. For the counting a squad of soldiers is ordered. As soon as some of the 100,000 mark bags are counted and found correct the war treasure is considered to be properly revised. The other large funds those- of the invalids' relief and the fortification building fund are also overhauled by carefully comparing the coupon sheets, numbers, series, Stc, with the original entries. Unt'lthe begin ning of the new reichstag building, this fund was also kept in the Julius tower. As soon as the work of count ing and comparing is finished th-e auditor's report is drawn up and signed by both functionaries the two keys are again simultaneously in serted in the locks and the revision of the war treasure is concluded. The "counters" are drawn up in line and marched back to the barracks, the "committee" drive off in a cab and the "hoard" is left once more in that absolute quietude which every peace loving Teuton hopes it may enjoy for many years to come. FATE OF TWO SPARROWS. They Were Guying; People on a fcteiin ship When Something Happened. Two impertinent sparrows met a curious and untimely death in tho presence of-an interested New York crowd a few days ago. One of the Cunard steamships was being warped in to her dock while crowds of people on the pier and the vessel were chaf ing at the delay and slowness of tho tedious process. A thic"k hawser fastened to a capstan near the bow was being used in the warping pro cess and was stiff as a pole under the tremendous strain. The sparrows who had been twitter ing and chirping about the place flut tered out to examine the hawser. Evidently it w-as a new porch stretched for their benefit where it would afford a good view of both boat and pier, they thought. They settled on it half way out. At first the slight vibration of the big rope caused them some uneasiness, but they soon got over it and fell to poking fun at the waiting people. T'ley would planee I pertly first at the travelers; then at the expectant friends, and then they would turn to each other and chirp out impertinent, guying remarks and twitter with glee until they nearly fell off their perch. d In the very midst of their enjoy ment something happened. There was a muffled report and the thick hawser parted like a thread just where the feathered jokers had been standing, causing the dockmen to run as one enif came writhing toward them like a snake. It was like tho burst of thunder sound in Mrs. Ilemans' poem; the birds, oh, where were they? Two little fluffy bunche-i of feathers rode the crest of a ripple in the water and disappeared under the pier. "Poor little things. It killed them," said a ludy on the pier. Then a new hawser took the place of the old, the big ship swung in, and every bod y pushed forward to greet long-absent friends. She Felt Safe Then. It was diiring a recent small-pox scare in a certain town in the Mid lands, in England. An old lady from the country thoucht she would like to take a cab, but she was rather anxious, having heard that many of tho cabs had been used to carry small-pox patients to tiie hospitals. She asked the driver whether there was any risk of catching the disease. "Not in the least, mum," answered the cabby, "I've had one of my back wheels vaccinated, mum." Thus re assured, the old lady stepped in and proceeded on her way. Will Mheat Torn to Cheat? Some who read this headline will gay "yes" end swear to it, while oth ers, equally as well acquainted with the mysterious in agricultural lore, will declare that "like produces like" and that one species of grain never sprung from another. There is but one instance on record in all the annals of agriculture where a spike of cheat has been found in a bod of wheat. This curiosity is, or was quite recently at least, preserved in the agricultural museum in Springfield, lib Jack as Good as Ills Master.

OVER if LLIOli Spent by the People of the United States For the Adulterations They Eat in Their Food. LAWS NEEDKl) BADLY To punish the 3b'ii Who Poison Us. Washington, Sept. 10. The queation of adulteratiou of food, and drus in thid country is discussed iu detail in the re port of Special Agent Alex. J. Wedder bruni, of the agricultural department, deferring to the fact that the public ideas of the adulteration uf food are in many cases very much exaggerated, the report saya: "The attention of foreigners has been drawn to the fact that greater or leas adulteration exists among us. Ah a result foreign competitors manufacturers of food products have used tho fact to their own advantage. America today occupies the unenvia ble position of being one of the very few countries tht fail to require by law, the proper branding of their manufactured food and ilrue. That such require ments would accomplish the desired re sult is unknown, but the evil would be mitigated by wholeaooie legislation. This belief is sustained by the results of the food laws of England and other foreign countries as well as of the vari ous states. The concurrent testimony of state officials charged with the enforce ment of state and local laws, is that a national law is necessary to secure the enforcement of state laws. If it be true that it is impossible for any state to execute its laws, no matter bow stringent, so loog as the original package decision stands a law, then the need of a federal law is imperative. The elTort to purge t.ie country of this crime is doing good and is keeping down the adulteration of the products wo con sume, but each year briugs to light new articles in which a method to improve the profit, if not their quality, has been found. That almost every article of food and drug used in this country is adulter ated, is proved most conclusively by a vast amount of information gathered by the department. The extent of the practice is as broad as the continent, but their character in jures the pocket, rather than the health. The general character of food adultera tions is principally commercial fraud and the extent of criaiinal or poisonous adulteration in food is so limited as to amount to but a bagatelle in the im mense sum of products consumed. A large proportion of po.sonous adul teratious arises from carelessness and ignorance. But ignorance is no excuse for the wholesale daitructiou of life by the uddition of poisjrjous pigments to many articles of food and especially cou lectionery, cream and like uttitles. It h.-is been proven taat adulteration is general and increasing, and no kind of food in the sugars or ii juors is free from the finishing touches of manipulators. Whether the intent be crimiual and vicious or s.mply fraudulent, tho result is the same and tue people will continue to 6uifer until the string hand of tho federal law steps in to supplement and support tue action oi me states. '1 ho extent of adulteration is fully 15 per cent, of which 2 per cent is injuri ous to health. Bat to furnish sixty-rive million people with food, drink and drugs cost not less than '3,760,u0l,ou0, arid it is found that the amount of adulteration readies tho immense sum of $1,01 l,OJ0,00i annually. As at least 2 per cent oi the .whole i3 deleterious to health, 4' 133,200,000 consti tutes the annual amount paid by Ameri can people for sacrifice of their lives or injury of their health. As there exists no more serious or ex haustive drain upon the resources of the people than tho a luiteratitm of their food and drug products, tho federal gov ernment should enact a law to prevent the transportation of ndsbranded, poison ous, or deleterious foods and drugs from one state to another, not interfering with the police powers ol tue states. This being done the various state laws would become effective, an 1 by syste matic effort on the part of oilicials or honest dealers and manufacturer, adul terations would be reduced to a mini mum and millions of dollars saved an nually to the country. The cost of the execution of such a law would be mod erate and should bo borne by the manu facturers of food and drug products. Tho report embodies rt Jlargo number of comments upon the subject of officials and other d.rectly interested persons. Nearly all the state oflicials and representative-tradesmen who give their views unite in urging the pessage of a national food and drug law for the protection of legitimate industry imd pijre interstate anil foreign commerce as well as the public health. SIDEWALK TAX. It Amounts to Over $i,-JOG.34 for the "ew "Walks. The city engineer has completed the apportionment of the sidewalk tax for the walks now being built by John Ritchie. The tux amounts to $3,200.34, and includes all the s.dswalis in the con tract, it does not, however, include the cost of the intersections ac the street crossings which are paid for by the city. The contractor has completed the walks in front of 33J lots and the force is dow putting the new walks down at the rate of eighteen lots a day. The walks are to be laid tefore 1,093 lots and the contractor has until December 1 to complete the work. Mrs. W. II. FtBsett, of Kansas City, has taken the rooms formerly occupied by Mrs. A. C.

The special business will bo to decide whether or not the Decker, Mullins Berry sawer case is to be appealed. The city attorney will make a hard fight to have the case appealed, lie thinks that the supreme court will re verse the case on the ground that the amount of the judgment exceeds the contract price. He says that it will not cost more than f 000 to prepare the case for appeal. Mayor Harrison said today in speak ing of the appeal: "I did not attend all the trials of the case, but have tried to keep posted in re gard to it At the trial in Juiy, 1593, the jury did not agree upoa a verdict, and were discharged without rendering aay verdict. In February, 189-1, the case was again tried and the jury sigued and re turned a verdict for a little more than $o"2,000 against the city, which was read iu open court in the presence of all the jury, and none of them made any objec tions to it. They were permitted by the court to retire again the next day to consider some special findings which they had not answered, and afterwards failed to agree and were discharged. The case was again tried last July, when the jury returned a verdict against the city for over $72,OUO. but to make up this verdict, as shown by special findings which they signed and returned, they in cluded items outside of and beyond the contract price amounting to from twenty to thirty thousand dollar. Section 570, general statutes, 1S89, laws of Kansas, provides, in language as plain and as strong aa it is possible to say it, that in no case shall the city be liable for any thing beyond the original contract price for making such public improvements. Thid is a wise provision of the statute for the protection of the taxpayers. "The city attorney informs me that under the law, bonds cannot be issued for judgments and that the city has only one of two alternatives, either to appeal the case to the supreme court or make a levy of a special judgment tax for its payment, that he now has an of fer to make the case complete for the supreme court for $700, and believes that he can get it done for $900, and the case being one of public importance, that the supreme court would advance it and that it would be disposed of without de lay. 'As anxious as I am to see this case settled and out of the way I believe that the city ought not in justice to the tax payers to pay at most more than the con tract price. To now make a special levy of 5 or 6 mills to pay this judgment would be a great burden and hardship upon the tax payers many of whom are unable to pay their present taxes and are obliged to let their homes be sold t r taxes. The county treasurer informs me that last year the county had to bid in over $30,000 of tax certificates and that this year they amount to over $4:,0A which shows the impossibility of the people to pay their present taxes and that they are not iu a condition to bear a larger additional levy. "if this case could be adjusted at not to exceed the contract price and suitable time agreed for its payment so that it would not be too great a hardship on th people that might be an advisable way to dispose of the case for all concerned." Tho attorneys against the city take another view of it and claim the supreme court has decided that a larger .rieo than the contract price can be collected under circumstances like the present ones. One of these attorneys said to day: "A part of the judgment rendered against the city in the sewer case was for work done and material furnished not required or provided for iti the orig inal contract. The largest item of this kind was for deepening the sewer iu dis trict No. 12. The contractors claimed that they were, according to tho original agreement, to dig the 6ewer au average depth of seventeen feet, and that they were required by the city authorities to j put it down about twenty feet. The city claimed on the trial that the agreement was that it should be twenty-one feet detp, but the jury found that the con tractors were right in their contention and allowed them 15,000 for their additional depth. The object of the city in having it put down so deep appears to have been to allow the sewer in district No. 15 to drain iu it. The contractors pro tested at the time against going beyond the depth which they had agreed to go, but were not able to get any relief from the council or city authorities. They did the work and the city received the bene lit of it, and the jury have found the con tractors wero right in their claim that the original agreement did not require them to go down this extra depth. It is now claimed that the city is not liable for this extra work, because no contract was formally made and en tered into for doing this work; that though it was done by the order of tho city authorities and under a claim by them, that the contractors were obliged to do it, yet as no contract for doing it was formally entered into between the mayor and council and the contractors, that the city is not liable, that tho orders and directions of the city authority do not bnd the city. This is the main reason urged for going on with the case. The point appears to be purely technical w here the city authorities as in this casa required the contractors to do this extra work and the city has had the benefit of it, substantial justice would teem to re quire that it pay for it."

Work on the Oakland Woolen Mill Is Under Way. Work has been resumed on the new Mid-Continent Woolen mill at Oakland and the building will be pushed rapidly to completion. The contractors were forced to shut down several days ago because the stock holders were alow in paying their as sessments, necessary to meet the first estimate which was due when the build ing was completed to the first story. This money has now been paid in and the contractors have again put their men to work. It will not be long until this substantial manufacturing building will be ready for the machinery. The buildiug is of brick and presents a handsome appearance. DES KOINES MAY WIN. Committee May .Send Itepuhlican League Convention There NexL Veiir. Chicago, Sept. 10.

There was consid erable bustle in all the pits on the Ujard of trade today. Corn was the leader on account of the frosts last nights in Ne braska, the Dakotas and Wyoming and the low temperature in Iowa aud Illinois, some shorts fearing the worst, rushed to cover at once, while others held oil or continued to sell. The result was that the boom was short lived. May opened ragged at 56jO to 561c, against 5o:?c at the close on Saturday, sold at StJo, 56c, 56c, 55c, 560 and 50c. Wheat was more consistently higher, on the fact that the receipts underraa the estimates, and on receipts indicating that the feeding of this grain to stock was growing iu favor. A South Dakota correspondent advised .Logan 6c Co. that the results bo far reached were such that they promised to revolutionize the agri cultural industry, lie tcld of farmers there going into Iowa and buying stock to fatten for market on wheat, expecting thus to dispose of their entire crop. December, which closed on Saturday at 57kc, opened at 57c, sold at 57 57J4c, eased off to &7)c and went to 57?,; Oats were steady. May opened gC higher at 36c and selling at 35J?836. Provisions were strong in sympathy with grains and on the firmness in hogs. January pork opened 10c higher at 1 4.15, jumped to $14 32 and fluctuated between that price and 1427.

Isn't it just as reasona ble to ask them to either give up their passes or not try railroad cases? If a man holds a pass oa a railroad for which he gives no equivalent be mut as a matter of course consider himself under obligations to the company, and no man can give a fair and impartial trial in aay case when he considers himself under obligations to one party to the action. Lawrence Journal. The Statjs Journal ia right ia its fight against the pernicious habit of pass taking and pass using by judges of the courts. But it has a tight that iastraight up h.'lL A part of the ambition of erery man is to get into a position where he can ride on the railroads for nothing,aid when that blessed privilege is tka away from the judiciary the men who have set their minds upon becoming judges will have to change the trend of their lives. Girard Dally World. The Topeka Journal is appealing to the members of the supreme bench to give up their railroad passes an 1 be under no obligations to the railroads. It has become a public scandal in this state that when some citizen has a suit against a railroad company and gets a judgment for stock killed by the cars or hay burned, or any other righteous claim, the attor neys for the railroad are never satisfied with the verdict and take the case up with a swagger which implies, "We'll knock you when we get you into our court." If the salaries paid the supreme judges by the state are not sufficient to justify them in refusing to place theia selves under obligatious to the railroads, by all means let the salaries be raised, and have a clean, impartial standing of clients. Times. Eldorado. The State Journal is stirring the question of supreme court and other judges in Kansas accepting passes from the railroads. Passes to judges, to state and county officers, to bankers and county "statesmen" are evidently intended as bribes; or reward for dirty work per formed and for "influence." The Popu lists have made a great outcry against passes, and yet according to the Jour nal s account every state oaicer carries a pass, and all use them except Associate Justicd Allen. The Santa Fa has always used passes in exchange for tha influence of local statesmen. Hiawatha World. The Topeka Journal is right in insist ing that no office hoi ler should ride on a railroad pas3. How does he pay for itr Independence Star and Kansan.l Tho Topeka State: Journal is making a vigorous fight upon the custom of judges accepting ruiiroad passes. No judge who has railroad cases to try ought to accept such a favor from those cor porations. If he has a proper sense of the eternal fitness of things, he won't do it. If the pass is accepted as a bribe and influences a judge's decisions the evil is manifest. If it is not accepted as a bribe, the judge gets money's worth without paying for it. The pass is given him to make him feel mora friendly to the railroads. They never intend to give "something for nothing." Either the judge gives an equivalent or he does not. If he does, he allows the pass to corrupt him. If he does not, he is, to say the least, ungrateful for favors received. The only defense of tha practice I have seen is that "they ail do it." In an oid book I bave read something about those who "follow a multitude to do evil," and their course is not commended. But the assertion is untrue. There aro some judges with too keen a sense of honor to accept these potential bribes. In a dis patch from dopeka dated September 4, I find the following: JudKP Z. T. Hazen of the Shawnee county dis trict court stated today that when he was elect ed to Una beach lie coaciudod i.flat. in vievr of litigation in wainh railroads were directly inter ested, it would be imjiropar for him to'ac iiqit passes. Js'eariy all the roads operating in Ka i fcus complimented him w.ih annual p isses over their Hue, but they were proiiip.ly returned at tao Ueiinain? of ttia year and he has paid fud fare ou every trip he has tateu. A judge, like Caesar's wife, should be "above suspicion," and no judge with corporation gift of this kind in his pock et can be above suspicion no matter if he leans to the other side aud construes the lafw more btrictly against the rail roads than if he paid his fare. I hope to see other judges taking the stand Judge Hazen has done. It will strengthen them immensely with the people. Powder and Patch. Wigs are of very ancient origin. According to -Xenophon, Astvages, king of the Medes, wore a wig. In the writings of Livy, Plutarch, an 1 many others, references are made to this covering for the head, which was made of hair, silk, thread, or other materiaL The aneieut Romans were prone to use the natural hair, and preferred the blonde locks of tha Germans. It is stated that "ileury III., of France, having lost his hair by sickness, wore a wig, and his courtiers began to follow his exam ple." At the time of the Freucli rev olution both wigs and powder dis appeared; but the large white wig is stili worn by the English judges. Misdirected Sympathy. An absent-minded landlord called on a tenant to condole with him on the death of a valuable cow. The cause of its disease had been envel oped in mystery.and while explaining it, the landlord, though a kind and sympathizing person, went off into the clouds. The last words of the narrative were: "And would you be lieve it, when we opened her we found she had been choked by a large turnip that was sticking in her gullet." Here the landlord woke up, and, ia a con gratulatory tone of voice, observed: "Ah.yes, and so you got your turnip?" Early ChrUtiaa Milkmen. St- Irenceus, one of the very early fathe rs of the church, in. the second century after Christ, writes as fol lows: "As was said by one, concern ing all who in anyway deprave the things of God and adulterate the truth, it is evil mingling gypsum with milk. Some have thought that St Peter, when he used the ex pression in his epistle, "the sincere milk of the word," means "unadulter ated" milk. Certainly the Greek word which means in one version we trans late "sincere," would bear this inter pretation. We put ou new neckbands oa shirts. Peerless Steam Laundry, 115 and 11 West Eighth stress. LEVI P. MORTON. In Active Foimca, The announcement of Levi P. Mor ton's candidacy for governor of the Etate of New York ii a matter of more than passing interest, for it is not often that an ex-vice president emerges from retirement, althougja Mr. Mortca's ac tion is not without precedent. Mr. Mor ton is a native of Siioreham, Vt, and is 70 years old. He ia a descendant of George Morton of York, England, who was the financial agent of the Mayflower Puritans, and who earn a to America on the tihip Ann in 1023. Levi Parsons Morton was the son of Rev. Daniel O. Morton and Lucretia Parsons Morton. Rev. Morton's salary was only f 600 a year, but he managed to give Levi a common school educa tion. Young Morton finished his school iij,g at 15 and began the business of get ting a living in a country store in Ea fiold, Mass. fie branched out for him- 't A V Jk- p LEVI P. MOP.TO!!. self in Hanover, N. H., in 1843, and seven years later" removed to Boston. He made money steadily and in 1854 felt strong enough to found the New York banking firm of Levi P. Morton Co. Soon thereafter a foreign branch of the Him was established in London. In 1873 the London firm of Morton, Rose Go. was appointed the financial agent of tho United States. In 1878 Mr. Morton began his active political career. He was elected to congress by a large majority from the Eleventh dis trict of New York, which had previously been Democratic, and was re-elected by an increased majority in 1880. Presi dent Garfield appointed him United States minister to France in 1881, and he pcrved in that capacity until Presi dent Cleveland was inaugurated in 1885. During his residence in France he secured the removal of the ban against American pork, procured the recognition of American corporations, drove the first rivet in the Bartholdi statue of "Liberty Enlightening the World" and accepted the completed statue for the United States in 1884. In 1888 he was elected vice president by the Republic ans. His inauguration occurred March 4, 1889, and since his retirement he has devoted himself to his private business..

RICHARD WAKE Who Wants to Hold a Third JParty I'ro h i bi t ion SXeetlnz on Lot H Sear th Chareb-D. A. Furbeck Klaallr Offers Ills Lawn. Rev. H. Wake, the well known Meth odist preacher, whose sermon at Lowman M. E. church Sunday morning, Septem ber 2, attracted considerable attention, will not be allowed to preach in that church aarain if some of the members can help it, and a Prohibition meeting advertised to be addressed by him tonight on the vacant lota adjoining the church, has been changed to another place be cause of the opposition of these object ing Methodists. At the meeting of the official board of the Lowman M. E. church last week two of the official members said they were in favor of passing a resolution prohibiting Rev. Ii. Wake and Rev. J. B. Botkin from preaching in their church again. The other members of the official board ex plained that it was not in their power to do that, as the two preachers are both ministers in goon standing in the church, aud as such they may preach in any iiethodist church where they may be in vited by the pastor. 'ihis explanation prevented the intro duction of his resolution, but it did not alley the feelings of the official members who objected to the doctrine expounded by Preachers Wake and Botkin. Rev. T. J. Ream, pastor of the church, was sick on the Sunday' his pulpit was tilled by these two preachers, and they were there by his invitation. Saturday afternoon Philip Lux and C. R. McDowell the official members who objected to the preaching of .Messrs. Wake and Botkin learned that Rev. Mr. Wake was advertised to speak at an open air Prohibition meeting on the va cant lots adjoining the.r church Monday (this) evening. They immediately went to ilr. Wake and entered their objections saying that their church did not want any political meetings held uuder its auspices and if the meeting was held there it would look like the church was running it. Mr. Wake protested that the meeting was arranged to be held on those lota simply as a matter of convenience but if there were other lota in the neighborhood at their disposal they would change the place of meeting. Mr. Lux said they did not want the meeting in the neigh borhood and Mr. McDowell said they did not want it in that block. Mr. Lux said they did not want it within a mile. Mr. Wake then called on Mr. J. R Bartholomew who owns the lota in ques tion. Mr. Bartholomew said he bad no objection to their holding the meeting ou his lots, but if it was going to cause trouble in the church he would not like to get mixed up in it. Mr. Wake said he did not want to draw him Into the trouble and did not want to make any trouble and they would get another location. When D. I. Furbeck, the Populist can didate for lieutenant governor, who at tends that church, and who lives just across the street from the church, heard about the trouble, he offered the prohibition committee the use of his lawn for their meeting. Mr. Furbeck's offer was accepted, and this evening at 7:30 o'clock Rev. Mr. Wake will make a prohibition speech on Mr. Furbeck's lawn. Mr. Wake says the actions of the two Methodist brothers are very strange in view of the fact that the last general conference of the i ethodist church -passed a resolution urariag its members to affiliate with no political party which is not pronounced in its opposition to tha saloon. He says the Prohibition party ia the onlv party in Kansaa this year that comes withia the requirements resolution. of that Webb IIarria,drugj;ita, Bennett'aFiata. n jJl (Successors to Wiggin, Crosby I J 4 worth 50 cents yard -This worth 65 cents yard This Satin Damask 75 and 98 Damask Extra value, 65 and 98 cents, $1.25, S1.50, $1.89 per yard.

MARRY A PLAIN GIRL IF SHE USES 'A Pol fifl) DOCTORS NOT IN IT. Their Oreupatlon Gone If This New Church Makes Knougrh Converts. St. Louis, Sept. 10. Prominent re" itgtous circles seem to be agog over a new religion that has found its way into St Louis. "Salvation, santilicatioti and divine healing," is the designation of the faith as announced by the evangelist. Rev. J. G. Stewart Quite a number of the parishioners of the leading churches of St Louis and of various denominations are disciples of this new doctrine. It is reported that Mrs. Clarie Ely, the widow of the late senior member of the weil known firm of Ely-Walker Dry Goods compaujr, will assume a large share of the financial responsibility of the church to be founded. .Mrs. E. G. Boyle, the venerable mother of Judge W ilber P. Boyle, was also referred to as a faithful devotee of the new religion. Mrs. Ely is a prominent member of the Third Baptist church and Mrs. Bjyle is a communicant of the First M. E. church, south. To further augment the interest in this seeming revofution in religious worship, it was announced that Rev. John N. McClurg, pastor of the Presbyterian church of the Covenant at tended one of Mr. Stewart's meetings a few days ago and appeared to be much in sympathy with the doctrine of "divine healing." Stewart has an abundance of witnesses who testify to having been "healed" by simple faith alone. Mrs. Emma Parker of Collinsville, 111., testifies that she had been "healed" three years ago last June. She suffered from an internal tumor and the attending physician pronounced her affliction incurable, she said. She was taken to a hospital in this city to die. "Suddenly," she said, "I decided that if we could call upon the Lord to forgive our sins, we might look to him to cure our bodily ilia. The faith of Jesus Christ in my soul healed me and deliver ed me." Mrs. Edna Bowden, ville, testifies that she ed" three years ago, sumption at the time, suffering innumerable also of Collins had been "heal having had con being blind and other physical ailments since 1849. Evangelist Stewart said that a.young man had been cured of nervous prostra tion at the meeting during the afternoon. Four years ago Q. W. Morrison, of this city, was "healed" of chronic dyspepsia during the service of the meeting held by Evangelist Stewart, according to the latter. At tbe same time, Mrs. Keith, who re side on Pine street, near Jefferson ave nue, waa dangerously ill with an internal tumor. Dr. Mudd was to operate upon her at St Luke's hospital.

There is a merchant on Kansas avenue who, while his heart is ample and his re ligion true, is at time3 very busy. His wealth is well known and he has to many demands on his purse, that it is little wonder he gets out of patience with the askers at times. lie was particularly busy the other day when a bent and aged woman came into his store, walked past the clerk3 and entered his private office where he and his cashier were busy with their work. The old woman was a cripple and her steps were not bouyanL Her back was cruelly bent under the load of her de clining years, and her brow bore a fur row for each of many years. Thin and distorted were her fingers, and the old, brown shawl that she had thrown over her shoulders one would imagine was in tended more to hide the raggedness of her garb than because she needed it to augment the summer heat. Her eyes were faded and her now grizzled hair bad lost the color and gloss that it had perhaps when she was younger. Bhe was plainly that most pitiful and most unwelcome of beings a beggar. The merchant saw her coming, and his patience gave way. "Give her a nickel. Give her a nickel," he almost shouted to his cashier, a young lady. The old woman half faltered when she heard his rough tone, but she needed the money, pitifu) though the sum. Into the office she tottered, where the merchant was pretending to be extra busy with his books. "Can you give a mite of your wealth to a poor and needy woman?" she asked. "Yes, yes. give her a nickel Miss Mary, give her a nickel," called the merchant irritably, without looking up. The nickel was produced. "I thank you very much air," said the enfeebled voice; "may God bless you." "Yes; that's all right. I'm very sorry for you, very sorry," said the merchant in a voice that showed it a little less than a hotel gong and without even looking at his intruder. The old woman took the despised nickel and held it in the open center of her withered hand. Her eyes were damp as she looked at it and once she made a motion as though she would give it back. But want was her master. "Yes, you must be very sorry." There was a sigh in the sentence so slowly spoken. "Wearily she moved down pa3t the counters well filled with goods, and the well dressed clerks laughing and chat ting about their pleasant times. Perhaps she remembered when the scene was a familiar one to her. At the door she stopped to still the quiver on her thin lips before she started out in search of a softer heart than the one she had just left. There were tears ia the eyes of the pretty cashier. IIIX'T WAST 'AIM THAT WAY. The Weary Srenadera Preferred to Have Their Grapes in Uottlet. Four Topeka young men started ont serenading the other night. There is nothing strange in the simpte fact that they went out serenading. It is a habit a good many Topeka young men have been led into by fate in times gone by, and that they have never been fully able to shake off. There is no Keeley institute for the serenade habit, unfortunately. Serenading' is not so bad after all on the serenaded if the other fellow can play anything but "After the Ball," or even have talent enough to let that get through- the strings of their instruments alive, and have in addition to that, meth od enough ia their madness to do their best. These young men were talented. They were also thirsty. That is a condition that often stalks abroad with this pecu liar class of people, and if you happen to have good wine in your house and the fact gets to the ears of the Serenaders union, you are pretty apt to be serenaded two or three times a night until all the bottles are in tne alley. These four particular thirsts were ter rible in their earnestness. "I know an old man who has some great wine," said one of the boys, and the old man was im mediately spotted as a victim. It was eleven blocks to his house, but there was wine in sight and the boys were not tired when they arrived, al though they were the least bit out of breath. They scattered themselves over the front walk and prepared for busi ness. Music swelled upon the breeze. It nearly always does where there is any breeze to swell on and the front yard was full of the melody of amateur gui tar music. The boys were not fuil of anything not yet. But wait There is a sound of ap proaching footsteps on the porch. The old gentleman spoke: "That was a very nice tune, boys; have some grapes." Grapes. Did they walk all that dis tance and work that hard for grapes? Their disappointment was Intense; their disgust supreme. There was nothing to do but seek an other house on the other side of town that one of the boys said was full of wine, and they made the laborious trip. Once more there were expansive chords and touching symphonies. Once more their souls arose and mingled with the evening atmosphere. Once more there were footsteps. It was a young lady that approached this time. 'Good evening, gentlemen. We appreciate your efiorta. May I oiler you some grapes?" There was no masicjn her tones to thirsty man. Each boy took a bunch of grapes and when the house was left in the distance each boy threw his bunch of grapes away, On the north side wine was plentifuL They would go over there, and they did. They would make no mistake this time. It was late when they reached the home of their prospective savior but the family was still up. There was a degree of confidence in the music this time that had not ap peared before, and when the piece was ended the gentleman of the house arose and went into it. He returned shortly and brought with, him a clink of glass. "At last, at last," murmured each musi cian to himself and prepared to take We have a Special Sale of Blankets BOOKED FOR THIS WEEK. QUR fall stock of Blankets (and it is the largest and most varied ever owned by this establishment) was secured under conditions particularly favorable to a successful and impressive Special Sale.

It was grapea again, however, and the boys said ihejf didn't care for auy. There was one more house to visit and the journey to it waa made half heart ed!'. The boys lined up and began their selection in a rather rattled muu ner but they waded through it sure that fate could no longer be unkind to them.

The Sew Tariff ISill Requires a .stamp on j;cli JJeck. There has been a famine of playing cards in the city a famine in the midst of plenty. Every drug and stationery store in the city has the usual supply, but they have been carefully stored away on the shelves, and the would-be pur chaser was told that they cannot be sold. The restriction on the sale wa-j caused by the new tariff law. It places a tax of 2 cents per pack upon playing cards of all description. The law applies, not only to the future supply but also to the stock on hand. The stores which now sell the cards have been fortunate enough to secure stamps. A Journal reporter visited nearly enfery place in the city where playing cards are kept and in all but three of the places, he was told that they could not be sold. I would like to sell you a deck, but you see 1 can't do it," said the proprietor of one of the stores. "Of course I might sell them to you, for I have plenty of them on hand but I might find myself In jail tomorrow. No. I can't sell you any cards now, but I will probably have my stamps in a few days." The stamps are the same size as the old two cent stamps. On their face they have the words "Playing' cards." Ihey are cancelled by writing the date of their receipt on the face. SIORE WORK lOn MR.

In Cae Insurance Commissioner .Snlder's Ideas XSecoine Law, The duties of Fire Marshal Wilmarth are likely to be increased even if his pay isn't, if State Insurance Commissioner Sailer gets his way in certain legislation which he proposes. Mr. Snider says that of the $170,000,000 worth of property lost very year, the Joss through tacen diariom and unknown eaues is 23 to 4 per cent. lie adds: "In the matter of investigation of fire losses, I would rec ommend legislative enactments making it the duty of the fire marshals of cities of the first, second and third classes to In vestigate into the origin of all fires in their respective districts, making a full report of said investigation to the insur ance department of the state; further, that the coroner of each county be re quired to investigate and report likewise on all fires outside of the above designa ted districts.

David Overmyer is her attorney. Wire Door on Trolley Cars. One of these days there is going to be a fatal accident on the street cars if the proper precautions are not taken. The proper precautions are the placing of wire gates on platform next to the iroa poles oa all streets which have center p. Uo4 for trolley wires. There have al ready been a number of minor accidents; it is only a question of time when there will Le a fatal one. It is cheaper to put the wire gates on now than to wait un til someone recovers several thousand dollars damages for his injuries or the death of a relative. Other cities have these gates on their cable and trolley cars and it has proved a wise safeguard. Shoe iiurnlng I'avementa. Duricg one of the recent hot days just as one of the Hock Island passenger trains pulled into town, a distinct odor of burning leather could be detected. "What is that smells like burnt sole leather?" asked a passenger. "Oh, that's only the shoes of the population walking about on the pavement It always smelis that way in Topeka in summer," said a Topeka man who was on the train. Cheap Magazines. A Topeka dealer in periodicals says that since the price of the Cosmopolitan was reduced the sale of other magazines has fallen off remarkably. He says that fecribuer'a in particular is allowed to lie on his counter, although the cheapness of John Brisbin Walker's magaziue has injured all the others in some degree. 310RE SUNDAY PUGILISM. Another Uisgrracef ul Affair In WliicU Uradluw is RaUly Ininmelel. 'IIun" Younkman, the colored pugilis tic champion," and Frank Bradshaw, fought 13 rounds Sunday afternoon oa CoL" Veale's farm in Swissdale, Osage county. The victory and the l.OoO purse went to Younkman; while Brad shaw went home in the charge of friends, with some of the gate receipts In his pocket. It was a hard-fought battle, and no fight in the vicinity of Topeka ever at tracted so much attention. Two hundred people went to the fight. 'Keddy" Brennaa and a young Swed ish pugilist known as the "Icelander," were the referees, and there were no complaints on their decisions. In the third round Bradshaw began to ehow signs of weakness and was knocked to his knees twice. In the fourth aud fifth rounds he caught his wind and managed to get the hopes of his backers very high. Later he appeared to lose- his grip and became groggy, while the colored slugger got his second wind and went after him.

The content was made more interesting by tha fact that each of the fighters had up $500 on his success, the wi.ir.ier to take it all. The side bets on the result were said to be more thau equal to the stakes. Younkman was substantially backed by Mr. KaczyDakl, while the North side and Fourth street sports placed all their small change on Brad shaw, and have nothing to show for it. A special train was made up on the Missouri Pacific to take the crowd to the aceue of the fray. It left the South Topeka station promptly at 11 o'clock Sunday morniug and went south until it crossed the Shawnee county line, as far a the station Swissdale. The fight was on Col. Veale's farm, at the same place us the Brads haw-Lynch fight several months ago. It cost the spectators 2 each to see the fight. The interest In the fight was Intensi fied by the presence of a lot of out-of-town sport?, among them "Ueddy" Bren tiau of Streator, 11L, Jack Lynch of New York and the "Denver Kid." Those who are recognized as leaders in the Topeka talent felt that they had a great respon sibility in defending an 1 vindicating To peka's reputation as a sporting center. There have probably been more prize fight in Topuka in the past six months than any other city of its size in America. The prize tights have been almost a reg ular Sunday occurrence Kadi time the principals and spectators claim to go just beyond the Shawueo county line aud be yond the jurisdiction of the officers of this county. The statute ou the subject of prize fighting is so broad that the offenders can be prosecuted here if it can be proven that the mill was arranged in this county. It is aa offense to ar range the details of the fight as well as to engage iu it County Attorney Staf ford and Sheriff Burdge should take active steps to stop these fights.

When old age sets his withering seal npon a woman, she needs all the aidu to her toilet that art find richness of material can give. Xhe-xo is no fabric too sumptuous nor mlf S0W53 FOR ELDERLY liDT AND DINNER DKE.iS. lace too fine for her, and she needs them then more than ever before. We hear much about growing old gracefully, and it occurs to me just now that I would vei-y much like to know what is meant by that. Does it mean that one who feels the golden sanrs of yonth slipping away should strngg'e and try to cheat time by yonthful dress and manners, or dees it mean that tho poor soul who sees nearly all that makes her life worth living slipping away should give np the etruggle and bow her head to the inevi table at once without the feeble protest of clinging t her pre;ty garments awhile longer? Mast the wc man who decides to prow oid grrvcef ully put on caps and stop frizzing her hair lecause she has passed the milestone of half a century and tame ly settle down into an old woman whose very identity is almost effaced? It is a hard tiling for a woman to cross the boundary l tween middle and old age, and it cones with a sndden shock when she finds that her claims to public consideration now are based sim ply npon her years. A man at 50 is not old enough to have it said that he is old, and, however old a man may be, he etill has a certain degree of interest for women if lie has money, ami he can marry a dozen times if he wants to after he is 60, but wlnn the woman has passed her forties she is relegated to a shelf vt ry high np and in a rarely fre quented spot and told to prow old grace fully Cod help her and lot ns all give hr the richest and most costly fruits of the loom th;it she n ay do it. Wo will mercifully forget all about tboso who must do their graceful grow ing in calico or homespun. Let ns turn to those to whom growing old means the most, the votaries of fashion, and tell them how to f nd what solace they can. For them th-.r-e are satin brocades in heavy qualities and rich colors, eplenaid peau de sue that would grace a queen, and reps with thick cord, and beautiful grosgrain silks. Besides these are moires and velvets and all lae furs except ermine. Ia fact, it jnst now strikes me that the elderly lady can have the pick arid choice of every thing. There was one beloved old lady who looked very handsome in a thick black bergriline ecrded silk made with a plain full skirt. The sleeves had loose balloon puff, and they and the waist w-ere trimmed with a superb arrange ment of black silk passementerie. On the waist and around it were moire rib bons ending in z. double bow at the waist. On her he vi perched above the palpable "front" was a sort of cap, with long, pointed ends in tho back and a bnuch of white lilies of the valley on the top. The lace was black chantilly and real. Her darghter, hirself a mother, wore a dove colored rep, with three narrow rumos made of gauzo, striped ribbons around tu) bottom on the outbade and a pinked m ile of tUurk green silk on the inside. Tho waist was made of figured eilk, white and dove color, and draped with the rep. Tho alcoves reached but to the elbows. Dove and quaker drab are both fav orite colors for plrin goods and also for those with email woven or stamped figures. The apron as am ordinary article of wear is returning, and almost every lady will wear one at teas and almost all home occasions, though in pnblio they t KNOCKABOUT CAl'E AND FiNCT APRONS. sill be sin only &t kirmess.

Adiron dack camping for women is not what it was eight or ten years ago. The woman camper in those days wore a regular camp cosinme, with short skirt of Ltn nel and Ixxlice to match; leggings of cloth or leather, strong low heeit-d shoe-) and felt hat. Sometimes women thns equipped went into rough camp with rifle and flslftng rod and lived as nearly as they might the life of the hunter. "We don't do that now, said a camp er, smiling from beneath her saucy sailor hat, "and every year we are more and more like the women that loll about the hotel porches and ti-ke care of their complexions. As a matter of fact, there has been a change in many respects for the better and some for tho worse as to the man ner of camp life for women. A woman may still, if sho chooses, live in rough camps and scorn conventions, but most women do the other things. There are camps of all degrees, from the enormous establishments of the millionaires, where faahion still has her way and ev erybody dresses two or three times a day, to the simple camps of sensible folks, where the women dress in outing cos tume when they rise and seldom appear in anything else, save perhaps on Sun day. It's easier to do this in your own camp or as a gnest in some friend's camp than in the boarding camps, where to some extent there is snch a thing as the conventionalities of town life. The boarder, however, who has the conrage to be peculiar may, if she will, tnjoy the luxury of dressing but once a day. Tho woman who comes camping to the Adi rondacks, whether as guest or as boarder, needs an outing costume to con sist of sailor hat, shirt waist, serge skirt and jacket to match, russet shoes and the proper sort of necktie. The provident woman will fetch along at least two outing gowns, skirt and jacket, and half a dozen shirt waists is none too many. Fashionable women are likely to have several dozens cf the latter and five or six of tho former, and it is the thing to have hatband, necktie and belt to V i AN Amr.ONDACK PORTICO. match every shirt waist. Along with these things it is well to fetch a light muslin gown for the occasional hot midday, when one does not stir about, and some sort of more or less dressy gown of warm material for the frequent cool evenings. All these latter tilings for the woman who has not made np her miud to brave it out day and night in outing costume, a thing that may be done in perfect comfort and safety. Sevcrr.l wraps, light and heavy; a few cushions and a hammock help out wonderfully in camp and are likely to be almost necessities to the boarding camper. If the camper is rich enough, it is most convenient to buy or hire for the season ont ot the light Adirondack beats. They may bo had at secondhand as low as 2 -3 and new for $00 or $70. There is nothing to prevent an advantageous sale of the boat at the end of tho season. The woman camper's outfit mav xist what she will. The skirt and jacket may bo had ready made as 1 w as 4 or made to order as high m-kZI'-H). Tho latter price is absurd, ami the former probably too low fur good wear. An al together suitable skirt and jacket may be had for Jf20 and worn perhaps the season. Suitable shirt waist may be had ready made as w as 40 cents ami made to order at the most fashionable places for as much as $5 each. Reckless and rich women cider the latter by tho dozen. Clever women buy oiim at $5 and make others of the best; matci ial on that pattern at a cost of about 1 each. Hats and shoes may bo had at prices that range from almost n thing up to $3 or $4 for tho former and 0 or .fs for the latter. A serviceable hammock need not cost more than $3, though some come at $100 or more. The joys of the sensible woman who camps in the Adirondacks are both physical and mtellectuai. The well cho sen camp is always on a lake, and the modern outing costume is just the thing for rowing. Any woman can learn in three days to manage an Adirondack boat, and before the season is over can row five miles at a stretch without over taxing her strength if she be in fair health. The average young woman in pretty outing costame is not a specially successful flsherwoman, but fish are queer things, and a wary old trout sometimes takes the hoc k cf a giddy girl that welcomes his appearance above wa ter with a shout that would madden the true fisherman. There is moonlight rowing for those that enjoy it. There are long all day expeiitions up and down the crooked and beautiful Adirondack streams. There are trips of two or three days that on a takes for many miles, al ternately rowing through the lakes, marching overland whilo the guides carry the boats or paddling cautiously where a narrow stream completes the lake chain. There is mountain climbing, not of the perilous Alpine sort, but de lightful in its way, with a night in rough camp on the mountain top and a breakfast cooked at dawn over a camp fire. Then there is the delightful ease of the hammock and a book, or the Au gust evening about the rot.ring camp fire, indoors upon the hearth or outdoors on a headland overlooking the lake and its always wooded shores.

How an Old-Time Stage Driver Sur prised an Agent of the Road. "There is quite a difference between staging in the early days of the state ind now," said William Miller, the Dwner of the stage line running from Cazadero to Ukiah, California. "When I came here from Boston in Isol I drifted about a bit, and finally went into the service of Charles Mc Laughlin, the man who was after ward killed by Jerome Cox. He was the owner of the longest stage line in California at that time. It ran with relays from San Jose to Los Angeles. "I remember once, in a lonely 2oast range canyon through which the road wound, we had a little ex perience that was thrilling for the mo ment. It was about 10 o'clock ami a moonlight mght. I was just, putting the horses through. The stage was full of passengers, and there was a heavy treasure box. "Just as I got around a band in the road I saw a figure of a man on horse back standing by the side of the road, lie yelled to stop, and I saw a gun barrel gleam in the moonlight. The horses were going at a speed that mig-ht be called breakneck, and I just made up my mind to take the chance of getting through. I saw the gun raised to the fellow's shoulder as we approached. I had my long whip in my hand, and, with a desperation born of peril of the moment, I made a vicious swipe at him. "I don't know how it occurred, but the lash wound itself around the gun, and as we dashed by the whip was drawn taut and I knew it had caught, so held fast. I was nearly pulled out of my saat, but the guu was dragged from the robber's hand and fell to the ground. At the same time it was dis charged by the shock. It rattled along the road for quite a distance before the whiplash unwound itself. I don't know what the highwayman thought, but I'll bet he was surprised." BRITISH PRISONS. Treatment Awarded to American Con victs Unknown Across tho Water. "Convicts who are confined in Amer ican prisons are allowed many more romforts and privileges than tho same class of unfortunates in England." said Howard L. Abbot of London. "A mau in an English prison is almost as dead to the world as he would be in his tomb. Nothing in the way of food or reading matter can bs sent him by his friends and he is never permitted to see a newspaper. Only at long in tervals can he write or receive letters and he is never allowed to speak un less he is addressed by an official of the prison. A prisoner sentenced for three years may see a visitor once in three months and he is allowed to write one letter. To men whose terms are longer such privileges are granted less often. For the first month the prisoner's bed consists sim ply of a broad board, raised a few inches above the floor. He has no mattress and the bed clothing con sists of a blanket, pillow, and a couple of sheets. At the end of a month, if his conduct has been all that is required, he is given a mat tress three nights a week.

His food is also regulated by the length of time he remains in prison.

They Are Lighter, StlfTer and Stronger Than Wooden Ones. One of the latest uses to which pa per has been turned is the making of telegraph poles. The paper pulp em ployed is saturated with a mixture of borax, tallow and other substances. The mass is cast in a mold with a cone in the center, forming a hollow rod of any desired length, the cross piecas being held by wooden keys driven in on either side of the pole. The paper poles are said to be lighter and stronger than those of wood and to be unaffected by the many weather influences which shorten the life of a wooden pole. It is doubtful, however, whether the paper pole will corne to be anything like a rival to the iron pole, whieb is now high in favor for the carrying of all kinds of wire lines. The value of iron telegraph poles has been well tested under the most trying conditions on the lines between Europe and India, and again across arid stretches of country in Australia. Insects that eat out the core of everything in the shapa of wood, leaving the shell only, and bird borers that drill holes in tlm toughest of trees, let the iron poles pass, and even wandering tribes cannot chop it up for fire-wood, although down in Australia they have not yet quite got over their trick of making arrow heads of the insulators it carries. Tteech 'I ree The common notion that beech trees are not struck by lightning so often as other trees is supported by experiments made by Jonesco Dim it rie, win) passed the spark of a Haltz machine through blocks of different kinds of wood. The spark passed through oak after one or two revolu tions of the machine, while five were required for black poplar and willow, and from twelve to twenty for beech. It was found that the diiftrerce was due to the richness in fat. Pine, which is rich in fat in winter but poor in summer, showed a resistance corresponding to the time at which it was selected for the test. U. A. It. to JPittaburff. VIA THE LAKE SHOliE KOUTE.

TABERNACLE PULPIT. TALMAGE ON THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS. The Sectarian Bigot Gets a Scathing Dennnclation Troth, and Error Now On Trial Cause of Intolerance IJberality Coming. TiRooKi-vsr, N. Y.. Sept 9. Rev. Dr. Talmag-e, who ia now in Australia, whence ho will shortly sail for Ceylon and India, has selected as the subject for to-day's sermon-through the press, 'Communion of Sainta," the text chosen being- Judg-es :2:vi, "Then said they unto him, say now Shibboleth; and he said Sibboleth; for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan." Do you know the difference of pro nunciation between shibboleth and sibboleth? A Tery small und unim portant difference, you say. And yet, that difference was the difference be tween life and death of a great many people. The Lord's people, dilead and Kphralm, g-ot into a erreat fisrht, and Ephraim was worsted, and on the re treat came to the fords of the river Jordan to cross. Order was g-iven that all Ephraimites coming there be slain. But how could it be found out who were Ephraimites? They were detected by their pro nunciation. Shibboleth was. a word that stood for river. The Ephraimites had a brogue of their own, and when they tried to say "shibboleth" always left out the sound of the "h." When it was asked that they say shibboleth they said sibboleth. and were slain. 'Then said they unto him. say now shibboleth; and he said sibboleth, for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took hiru and slew him at the passages of Jordan. A very small difference, you say, between Gilead and Ephraim, and yet how much intolerance about that small dif ference! The Lord's tribes in our time by which I mean the different denominations of Christians some times magnify a very small diSerence, and the only difference between scores of denominations to-day is the differ ence between shibboleth and sibbo leth. The church of God is divided into a great number of denominations. Time would fail me to tell of the Calvinists, and the Arminians, and the Sab Vatarians, and the Eaxterians, and the Dunkers, and the Shakeris, and the Quakers, and the Methodists, and the Baptists, and the Episcopalians, and the Lutherans, and the Cong-re-gationalists, and the Presbyterians, and the Spiritualists, and a score of other denominations of religionists, some of them founded by very good men, some of them founded by very egotistic men, some of them founded by very bad men. But as I demand for myself liberty of conscience, I must give that same liberty to every other man, remembering that he no more differs from me than I differ from him. I advocate the largest lib erty in all religious belief and form of worship. In art. in politics, in morals, and in religion, let there be no gag law, no moving of the previous question, no persecution, no intoler ance. You know that the air and the water keep pure by constant circula tion, and I think there is a tendency in religious discussion to purification and moral health. Between the fourth and sixteenth centuries the church proposed to make people think aright by prohibiting discussion, and j by strong censorship of the press, and j rack, and gibbet, and hot lead down j the -throat, tried to make people or- thodox; but It was discovered that you can not change a man's belief by i twisting of his head, nor make a man 6ee differently by putting an awl j through his eyes. There is something in a man's conscience which will hurl off the mountain that you threw upon it, and unsinged of the fire, out of the j flame will make red wings on which the martyr will mount to glory. In that time of which I speak, be- i tween the fourth and sixteenth cen- I turies, people went from the house of God into the most appalling iniquity, i and right along by consecrated altars there were tides of drunkenness and j licentiousness such as the world never heard of, and the very .ewers of per- j dition broke loose and flooded the church. After awhile the printing press was freed, and it broke the shackles of the human mind. Then there- came a large number of bad books, and where there was one man hostile to the Christian religion, there were twenty men ready to advocate it; so I have not any nervousness in regard to this battle going on between Truth and Error. The truth will conquer just as certainly as that God is stronger than the devil. Let Error run if you only let Truth run along with it. Urged on by sceptic's shout j ,nl transcendentalist's spur, let it run, God's angels of wrath are in hot pursuit, and quicker than eagle's beak clutches out a hawk's heart, God's vengeance will tear it to pieces. I propose to Bpeak to you of sec tarianism its origin, its evils, and its cures. -There are those who would make us think that this monster, with horns and hoofs, is religion. I shall chase it to its hiding place, and drag it out of the caverns of darkness, and rip off its hide. But I want to make a distinction between bigotry and the lawful fondness for peculiar religious beliefs and forms of worship. I have no admiration for a nothingarian. In a world of such tremendous vicis situde and temptation, and with a soul that must after awhile stand be fore a throne of insufferable bright ness, in a day when the rocking of the mountains and the flatiing of the heavens and the upheaval of the sea shall be among the least of the excite ments, to give account for every thought, word, action, preference. and dislike that man is mad who baa j no religious preference! But oar early education, our physical tempera ment, oar mental constitution, will very much decide our form of worship. George Whitefield was going over a Quaker rather roughly for some of his religious sentiments and the Quaker said: '"George, I am as thou art; I am for bringing all men to the hope of the gospel; therefore, if thou wilt not quarrel with me about my broad brim, 1 will not quarrel with thee about thy black gown. George, give me thy hand. In tracing out the religion of sectar ianism, or bigotry, I find that a great deal of it comes from wrong education in the home circle. There are parents I who do not think, it wrong to carica ture and jeer the peculiar forms of re- ligion in the world, and denounce i other sects and other denominations. It is very often the case that that kind of education acts just opposite to what was expected, and the children grow up, and, after a while, go and see for themselves; and, looking in those churches, and finding that the people are good there, and they love God and keep his commandments, by natural reaction they go and join those very churches. I could mention the names of prominent ministers of the gospel who spent their whole life bombard ing other denominations and who lived to see their children preach the gospel in those very denominations. But it is often the case that bigotry starts in a household, and that the subject of it never recovers. There are ten a of thousands of bigots 10 years old. I think sectarianism and bigotry also rise from too great prominence of any one denomination in a community. All the other denominations are wrong, and his denomination is right because his denomination is the most i wealthy or the most popular, or the i most influential, and it is "our" church, and "our" religious organiza tion, and "our" choir, and "our" min ister, and the man tosses his head, and wants other denominations to know their places. It is a great deal better in any community when the great de nominations of Christians are about equal in power, marching side by side for the world's conquest. Mere out side prosperity, mere worldly power, is no evidence that the church is ac ceptable to God.- Better a barn with Christ in the manger than a cathedral with magnificent harmonies rolling through the long drawn aisle, and an angel from heaven in the'pulpit, if there be no Christ in the chancel, and no Christ in the robes. Bigotry is often the child of ignorance. You seldom find a man with large intellect who is a bigot. It is the man who thinks he knows a great deal, but does not. That man is always a bigot The whole tendency to educa tion and civilization is to bring a man out of that kind of state of mind and heart. There was in the far east a great obelisk, and one side of the obelisk was white, another side o the obelisk was green, another side of the obelisk was blue, and travelers went and looked at that obelisk, but they did not walk around it. One man looked at one side, another at another side, and they came home each one looking at only one side; and they happened to meet, the story says; and they got into a rank quarrel about the color of that obelisk. One man said it was white, another man said it was greeu, another man said it was blue, and when they were in the very heat of the controversy a more intel ligent traveler came, and said, "Gen tlemen, I have seen that obelisk, and you are all right, and you are all wrong. Why didn't you walk all around the obelisk?" Look out for the man who sees only one side of a religious truth. Look out for the man who never walks around about these great theories of God and eternity and the dead. He will be a bigot inevitably the man who only sees one side. There ia no man more to be pitied than he who has in his head just one idea no more, no less. More light, less sectarianism. There is nothing that will so soon kill bigotry as sunshine God's sunshine. So I have set before you what I con sider to be the causes of bigotry. I have set before you the origin of this great eviL What are some of the baleful effects? First of all it cripples investigation. You are wrong, and I am right, and that ends it. iNo taste for exploration, no spirit of investiga tion. From the glorious realm of God's truth, over which an archangel might fly from eternity to eternity and not reach the limit, the man shuts himself out and dies, a blind mole under a corn shock. It stops all in vestigation. While each denomination of Chris tiana is to present all the truths of the Bible, it seems to me that God has given to each denomination an especial mission to give particular emphasis to some one doctrine; and bo the Cal vinistic churches must present the sovereig-nty of God, and the Arminian churches must present man's free agency, ana tne E.piscopai cnurcnes must present the importance of order and solemn ceremony, and the Bap tist churches must present the neces sity of ordinances, and the Congrega tional church must present the re sponsibility of the individual member, and the Methodist church must show what holy enthusiasm, hearty congre gational singing can accomplish. While each denomination of Chris tians must set forth all the doctrines of the Bible, I feel it is especially in cumbent upon each denomination to put particular emphasis on some one doctrine. Another great damage done by the sectarianism and big-otry of the church is that it disgusts peode with the Christian religion. Now. my friends, the church of God was never intended for a war barrack. People are afraid of a riot. You go down the street and you see an excitement, and missiles flying through the air, and you hear the shock of firearms, Do you, tho peaceful and industrious citizen, go throug-h that street? Oh, no! you will C'. V. J '-fa h 1 .J 1 i i IT FLOATS TOK TABLE LINEN.. THE PROCTEF. OAMBU CO. CINT- i say, Til go around the block." Now, men come and look upon this narrow I path to heaven, and sometimes see the ecclesiastical brickbats flying I every whither, and they say,. "Well, I S guess I'll take the broad road; there I is so much sharp-shooting on the 11 a r row road I guess I'll try the broad road! Francis 1 ao hated the Lutherans t that he said that if he thought there was one drop of Lutheran blood in his veins he would puncture them and let that drop out. Just as long as there is so much hostility between de nomination and denomination, or be tween one professed Christian and another, or between one church aud another, so long men will be dis gusted with the Christian religion, and say, "If that is religion I want none of it" Again, bigotry and sectarianism do great damage in the fact that they hinder the triumph of the gospeL Oh, how much wasted ammunition! how many men of splendid intellect have given their whole life to controversial disputes when, if they had given their life to something practical, they mie-iit have been vastly useful! Sup while I speak there were a coi. 1 enemy coming up the bay, and a ,u: forts around the harbor begau to fire into each other you would -jry out, "National suicide! Why don't those forts blaze away in one direction, and that against the common enemy?" And yet I sometimes see in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ a strange thinggoing on: church agaiostchurch, minister against minister, denomina tion against denomination, firing away into their own fort, or the fort which ought to be on the same side, instead of concentrating their energy and giving one mighty and everlast ing volley against the navies of dark ness riding up through the bay! Perhaps I might forcefully illustrate this truth by calling your attention to an incident which took place about twenty years ago. One Monday morn ing at about 2 o'clock, while her 900 passengers were sound asleep in hea' berths dreaming of home, the steamer "Atlantic'' crashed into Mars Head. Five hundred souls in ten minutes landed in eternity. Oh, what a scene! Agonized men and women running up and down the gangways and clutch ing for the rigging, and the plunge of the helpless steamer and the clapping of the hands of the merciless sea over the drowning and the dead threw two continents into terror. But tee this brave quartermaster pushing out with the life line until he gets to the rook, and see these fishermen gathering up the shipwrecked, and taking them into the cabins, and wrapping them in the flannels snug and warm; and see that minister of the gospel, with three other men, getting into a life boat, and pushing ont for the wreck, pulling away across the surf, and pulling away until they saved one more man, and then getting back with him to the ahore. Can those men ever forget that night? And can they ever forget their companionship in peril, companionship in struggle, companion ship in awful catastrophe and reseue? Never! Never! In whatever part of the earth they meet, they will be friends when they mention the story of that night when the "Atlantic" struck Mars Head. Well, my friend. our world has gone into a worse shipwreck. Sin drove it on the rocks. The old ship has lurched and tossed in the tempests of six thousand years. Out with th- life line! I do not care what d e n o uT.-n tion carries it Out with the life boat! I do not care what denomination rows it Side by side, in the memory of common hardships and common, trials, and common prayers, and common tears, let ns be brothers forever. We most be. One army of the living Ood, To his command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood, AdJ part are crossing now. And I expect to see the d-- when all denominations of Christians nail join hands around the cros of enrist and re-site the creed: "I believe in God the Father Almijjh ty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, and in the communion of saints, and in life everlasting.

Dr. Giiean Knapp, has sug gested that fifty hcrse owners contribute $10,000 apiece aud build and conduct a track of their own.

Fuaionist Democrats Beat-an. fay a Slim Llajority IHTHESHAWSSE COUNTY CCXYEHflOS Home Amusing ceacAerera paoy the (Straggle Belweeu t iie T vv o i'uctioo. The Democratic county convention which'was held at Metropolitan hall late Saturday afternoon, was entertaining in the highest degree. The Frank Thomas faction had planned to adjourr. without nominating a ticket, but they were beaten by Overmyer's personality and then they turned the tables and nomint-.ted those who favored a middle-of-the-road ticket. If David Overmyar had not attended the convention there would not now be a Democratic ticket iu Shtw.ie county. Frank Thomas was not there, and the fight was generaled by S. B. Isenhart, JD. P. Elliott tnd P. J. Caoney. The plan was to elect W. A Snyder chairman of the convention, and when the faction in favor of nominating a straight ticket did not oppose Snyder the fusionists thought they had things their own way. After the committees bed been ap pointed and retired a motion was made by Charles K. Holliday that lion. David Overmyer and Chairman Richardson, of the Democratic state central committee, be heard by thj convention. P. J. Canuey objected, but the motion to hear them carried by a big majority. Mr. Overmyer said that he was sur prised that any one Bhould object to al lowing him to speak at a Democratic con vention, lie exhorted the members of the convention to stand up like men and put a straight ticket in the field, lie then made a short Democratic speech. Chairman Richardson told the conven tion that there was no chance of the Populist ticket being elected, and a vote for it would be a vote thrown away, while on the other hand the Democratic ticket stood a good chance of beiug elected. S. B. Isenhart, chairman of the com mittee on resolution, presented the fol lowing report: Resolved. That we reaffirm our allegi ance to the Democratic platform aud prin ciples as enunciated in the national Democratic platform in 18tf2, and we hereby endorse the present national Democratic administration. Second We regard the r.epublican party of Kansas as tn arch enemy of the Democracy and we therefore pledge our selves to use all honorable means to se -cure the defeat of said party. C. K. HoJliday, Jr., at once moved the following as a substitute for the second clause: Whereas, The Democrats of Kansas in state convention assembled have honor ed the Democrats of Shawnee county by selecting as their standard bearer lion. David Overmyer of Topeka, and have associated with him on the state ticket representative Democrats of the whole state, the nominees constitutii-g the best ticket, viewed from any standpoint in the field, be it Resolved, That the Democrats of Shaw nee county in convention assembled, hereby pledge their hearty support to the Democratic state ticket from top to bottom and that they also appreciate the honor conferred in the nominatioa of lion. David Overmyer for the position of governor of Kansas and regard it as a fitting recognition of his long aud faith ful service in the cause of Democracy. The substitute was adopted without discussion. The chairman then declared nomina tions for a county ticket in order. L. A Stebbins placed W. E. Atchison's name before the convention for county attorney. The plan of the fusionists was if the opposition placed candidates in the field, to nominate men who would decline to run. In accordance with the plan D. P. Elliott placed S. B. Iseuhart in nomination. Mr. Isenhart's courage failed him, and he declined. lie sai l he had tried it once, and ha did not care to do so again. Atchison's name was then voted upon by a standing vote, and he was defeated by a vote of 15 to li2. Flushed with success, J. T. Ward, a fusionist, at once moved to adjourn with out nominating a ticket In a second Mr. Overmyer was on his feet. "You are out of order," said the chair man. "I will not speak without unanimous consent. I only want to say a few words." 'Does any one object!"' asked the chairman. Not a whisper was heard in the room. Mr. Overmyer then turned to the crowd, his eyes flashing, and said: "As the head of the Democratic state ticket I have a right to demand of this convention that it nominate a ticket aud I now make that dam and. This is a di rect slap in my faca and I do uot pro pose to endure it. It must not be said that the Democrats cf Shawnee county laid dowD their arm-! aud surrendered. Now turn me down if you want to." A roll call on the motion wa3 de manded and when the names of the dele gates were called their courage failed them and they voted against the mjtion to adjourn. The vote stood ly to 22 against adjournment. Then Col. W. 1. Tomlinson walked across the room toward the place where S. B. Isenhart was sitting and beckoned to him. uYou go and sit down, I don't waat to see you," said .Mr. Isenhart, angrily. "I will sit down when I get ready for all of you," replied Col. Tomlinson with a snap as he walked back to his soat. The incident was amusing. Mike lleerey then arose and said: "What did you come here for'; It was understood that we were to nominate a ticket. If you are Democrats, stand up like men. If you are not 1).? Uwcr.it -i, the thing for you to do is to waik out." T. G. Shiliinglaw said: "We are Dem ocrats and we are here to beat the Re publicans. oi can't find candidates who will go out and work ia the cam paign." He thought Mr. Overmyer wouid get more votes without a county ticket iu the field. Buck Miller sai l he had been a Demo crat for ten years, ana he was stdi a Democrat, and he ws tired of the per sonal tight being made in Shawnee county. L. A Stebbins said that be did not claim to be a great friend of Mr. Over icyer, but the only tiling for Democrats ia do was to put out a Ucset. The motion to adj jurn without nomi nating a ticket was then voted down. W. E. Atchison was again nominated for county attorney.

"You may think I have no sensibilities" said he, "out I can feel just as well as the rest of you and I do not thank the man who nominated me. I am not qualified for the office and could not take it if I was." W. P. Tomlinson waa then nominated and said he took it as an honor and would accept the nomination. C. K. Holliday, jr., was nominated for clerk of the district court. Mike Heery, Mrs. L. O. Case and Geo. W. Berry were placed before the conven tion for county superintendent. Mrs. Case and Mr. Berry were not present. Mrs. Case received a majority of six votes. Lee Jones then said that Mrs. Case was a Republican and he under stood that the convention was called to nominate Democrats. "Yes, she's a woman euflragist too" said some one. The vote by which she was nominated was then reconsidered and Mike Heery withdrew. Geo. W. Berry was then nominated after the chairman informed the conven tion that he was a Populist. Mike Ueery was nominated for county cammissioner in the city district. CHARLIE ELLIOTT DIDN'T A Story About Cyrus Corolof Whicli Ap pear, to Liieik Truth. The Jackson County Tribune, pub lished at Holtou, prints the following in teresting story; Cyrus Corning, who is said to be a Populist, is editing a paper in Topeka caned the New Kra. which is bejn circulated by the g. o. p.' state committee. This scalawag and all around dead beat came to Charles S. Elliott, who was secretary of the railroad commissiou under the ltepubllcan party, and wanted Mr. lill.ottto aid him i Corn tin; in starting a licht against Cov. J.eweihni. Corning made this proposition in lieserabcr, before Lewellmg wan inaugu rated. Mr. Corninj; took Mr. Kluott up to .ne auditor's office aud introduced him to tho elerks and slated his mission. Mr. i.
