Abilene Chronicle: The Topeka State Journal has a web perfecting press, giving it a splendid equipment. The Journal's daily circulation is now larger than tbat of any otLsr daily print ed in Kansas, and it is a bright paper that deserves all its prosperity. Topkka is wa i as a we; hen.

Such a piece of politi cal stupidity has never before been wit nessed in Kansas. Gov. McKinley will speak at Topeka October iS, to as many acres of people as can get within range of his voice.

Sunrise Prince, 2:13), after earnest solicitation has "accepted" an engage ment with the Chase county fair. A young man named Hay has been sent to the penitentiary from fctarling. IIi3 offense was necessarily a hay-nous one. A Kansas surgeon who amputates a great many legs speaks of his patients as unfortunate people whose ends Lave been defeeted. A man who is selling electric belts in Brown couuty, claims to bo a son of Lew Wallace. That is only one of the pen alties of writing books. Peabody has organized a foot-ball team in spite of the vigorous opposition of the barbers, and the medical profes sion in that place is all smiles. A Coileyville man is using whisky to exterminate the bats in au old build;ng. This is reversing things, whisky has al ways been considered a bat producer. The house of a farmer near White Cloud wa3 entered by a thief and a $150 gold watch taken. What surprises the farmer is that a lot of corn was never touched, Hiawatha is hanging on to theendgate of the band wagon by the eyebrows, i he engineer who was the hero of the 3Iiu nesota forest fire looks like a man who lives at Hiwatha. A boy out at Kingman was killed by a window falling on him. This is curious from the fact that hundreds of people have brick houses fall on them without being even phased. The Minneapolis Messenger tells of a Democrat who never goes to the post offiee for his mail, though he lives with in two blocks of it, and never gets a let ter until it is advertised.

COLONEL INGERSOLL SAYS THEY ARE A WEARING LOAD. $t the Ores Orator and Lwjar Eajoy a Princely Income A. &Xa of Simple Tastes and Pleading- Manners Carefully Pre pared Addretaes. fSpecial Correspondence. New York, Sept. 20. Colonel Rob ert G. Ingersoll is to be found in a suit of rooms near the top of one of the tall est buildings 011 Wall street. Their ceil ings are quite low; their walls are crowded with law books; their floors, made of hard wood, have neither carpet nor rug to break the Bound of footsteps. The deriks and chairs are of the ordinary type. Nothing in the rooms gives any indication of an occupant with a large income. Although no one but Mr. Ingersoll himself knows precisely what that in come is, friends somewhat familiar with his affairs estimate it to bo from $50, 000 to 100,000 a year. So much money would easily enable him to rival tho luxury of the offices of some New York lawyers, but he appears to prefer plain surroundings. It is a curious fact that thoe of his home are not unlike those of his offices. Although his income is largo, ho is known to have very effective means of getting rid of it. He is a gen erous man, giving tp all beggars, whether big or little. Then, again, he is prone to yield to the solicitation of promoters of schemes, and without in vestigating these echenifs as he ought ho puts his money into them. As a con sequence, ho often finds himself out of pocket. It is not an easy matter to find out what Colonel Ingersoll is doinsr. He ia very much averse to talking about him self. Iu fact, nothing can be elicited from him directly regarding the matters that occupy his attention. Ho ianoc sus ceptible to the flattering argument that as a man that has attracted attention by his ability as an orator and lawyer peo ple, particularly those who sympathize with his well known views, are inter ested in learning all that is possible about him. He sternly refuses to pose as a great man or to cater to the popular taste for biographical detail. He does not think that people are worth writing about uiitil tbey are dead, and not then even tin less they havo done somethin? to make them worth remembering. Colonel Inf.erscll i3 not. however, an unapproachable or a reticent man. While the practice of his profession ia exceedingly exacting of his time and strength, he never refuses to seo a aows- f -X, 0: v- e: COLONEL INQERSOI.L AND HIS GRANDCHILD. paper interviewer. He does not fail to treat him with perfect cordiality or to talk about anything except himself. If his visitor is interested in science, he will talk about that, or, in history or re ligion, he will talk freely on that sub ject. And he will manage to ruako himself verv entertaining too. But he refuses to permit the publication of any thing that he says unless it be in his own words, verbatim et literatim. His theory is that no man. however honest and painstaking, can reproduce exactly the ideas and language of another with out being a shorthand writer. So if the interviewer cannot write shorthand Colonel Ingersoll will, if he has any thing to say to the public in prin, ask for a list of questions, dictate Lis an swers to his own stenographer and fur nish a copy. Some of Mr. Ingersoll's intimate friends, with whom he sometimes talks about his work, are not so averse as he is to personal disclosures. "I was very curious to learn," said one of these friends, "how he wrote his lectures. I had an idea that they did not cost him much effort, so I mustered up courage one day and asked him. I learned, much to my surprise, that he spent a good i deal of time on them. He works very i hard to get the right word, one that will not only express his idea, but give the proper rhythm to his sentence. Some j paragraphs in his lectures have cost him many hours of the hardest labor be- fore ho got them into the right shape. I There is nothing unprepared or sponta- i neous in his writings or public utter- j ances. m i While Colonel Ingersoll is, as the world goes, a rich man, he is known to regard the millionaire with some pity if not contempt. "A great fortune," he I once said in the writer's presence, "is j a heavier and more ridiculous load than the old man of the sea. A man had bet- j ter be dead than rich." It is of course easy for Colonel Ingersoll to talk in this way. He has plenty of money and doubt- i less finds it a great convenience. "If he were to remember," said a friend after Learing his opinion, "that $50,000 is equivalent to an income on 2,000,000, I I e would see that he, too, belongs to the I despised class of millionaires." i Colonel Ingersoll's household com- I prises, besides his wife and her sister I and his two daughters, the husband and two children of one of the daughters, j and two cousins. He is devoted to his j home and family and cares nothing for j society. He has a house on Fifth avenue j and a summer home on the Hudson near Dobbs Ferry. N. W. P. J Disadvantages of Ttapid Transit.

Interesting- Career of Commander In Chief Lswlcr of the Grand Army. Colonel Thomas O. Lawler, the new commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, is an Englishman by birth aad a thorough American by train ing. He first saw the light of day in Liverpool 50 years ago, bnt hss lived nearly all his life in Rockford, IJis. His parents were poor, and he wasard at work as a boy of IV when the war be gan. He promptly went to the front with the Nineteenth Illinois infantry and served throughout the war, partici pating in all the battles of his regiment. General Rosecraus complimented him for his bravery, and he was mustered out as sergeant brevet captain. After the war Lawler organized the Eockville rifles and served 12 years in the national guard, rising to the rank of colonel. He joined the G A. R. in 1866, soon after it was organized, and for 26 yeara has been post commander of 1 V f THOMAS O. LAWLER. Kevins post No. 1, which, although net the first post organized, is now the old est one in existence. Lawler is such an enthusiastic member of the G. A. R. that it is said he has missed but one post meeting in a quarter of a century. His term of service as post commander is also without an equal in the history of the Grand Army. He has also served as department commander of the order in Illinois. The occasion of his twenty fifth anniversary as post commander was made quite an event in Grand Army circles, and he was presented with a diamond medal in honor of his long service. Ho is not only popular in Grand Army circles, but at home as well, a fact that is demonstrated by his 1 2 years of serv ice as postmaster of Rockford. Colonel Lawler was a close friend and confidant of General John A. Logan, who'-n h- closely resembles in appearance, it is said. He has been frequently spoken of as a promising candidate for governor of Illinois on the Republican ticket. THEY MIXED THE WATERS. How Oakland Prohibitionists Nominated Herbert In Mistuke For Albert. The Prohibitionists of Alameda coun ty, Cal., never mix anything if they can help it, but they receuily succeeded in so thoroughly mixing Herbert and Al bert Waters of Oakland that they nomi nated Herbert for county clerk in mis take for Albert. Every one in Oakland was amused by the odd error that is, every one but Albert. The brothers are twins who lo&k so much alike that their mother cannot tell them apart, and it is further alleged that when Albert and Herbert look in the mirror each some times wonders which one of the twins he is. Not long ago Albert, who is an ambitious young politician, concluded that he would enjoy running for county clerk on the Prohibition ticket. He placed himself in the hands of his friends and was assured that the nomi nation would be his when the county convention met. Then Albert did a very foolish thing. Unmindful of the fact that his twin brother was at large in Oal-land, he went to Fresno on business, leaving his friends to look after his political fences. When convention day came, Albert was still in Fresno, and Herbert, who was ignorant of his brother's political aspira tions, strolled into the convention hall, where, to his surpirse, he met with a very enthusiastic reception. Albert's HEPtBERT AND ALBERT WATERS. friends were out en masse, and they were locking after his fences in loyal fashion, but Herbert know nothing of this and silently congratulated himself on being more popular, with his fellow townsmen than he had dreamed. He was still more agreeably surprised a few moments later when the convention nominated him for county clerk without a dissenting vote. He was called upon for a speech and greatly surprised his brother's friends by earnestly declaring that the honor was a great surprise to fcim. The convention adjourned without discovering that Herbert was not Albert, and two days passed before Herbert learned that he had captured a nomina tion intended for Albert. He will run for county clerk, however, and expects to profit by Albert's popularity on elec tion day. One of the greatest jokes con nected with the affair occurred when one of Albert's friends mad? profuse apologies to Albert, as he supposed, only to learn later that the apologies had been made to Herbert.

The only tools necessary far this work are a hammer, small paw, medium-sized chisel, an awl, plane and nails of assorted sizes. With these implements she can do a great deal to ward beautifying an unpretentious home. To make a shoe-holder and seat, as depicted in one of the illustrations, ob tain at a grocery store an ordinary soap box and let this form the end uprijrht box. Get another 'packiny case of the same width but longer, and arrange on top a lid with hing-es so it may lie raised. Use the cover to the upritrht one for two shelves, nail them securely in place and let them be an equal dis tance apart, so they will accommodate shoes and slippers. Fasten these boxes tog-ether securely with screws. Next obtain a board and after rounding- corners oft" screw it fast to the back of the boxes and you will have as a result the frame-work for the seat. The hing-ed lid of the low box will act as a seat, the board with the if 3' I m ""'J'"', I','"!''1' 'Jl(ij HA5GISO CA1UNT.T. rounded corners forms the back, while within the box rubbers and heavy boots may be kept, the uprig-ht one holding- line shoes and slippers. After long- experience in domestic up holstery, denim, in its rich assortment of colors, is found to be superior to all other materials. It combines artistic beauty with astonishirg- durability, and is heartily recommended to the amateur cabinet-maker. The tops of the boxes should be cov ered first and tufted. This may be ac complished by spreading- curled hair on the wood and tacking- the material over it and at regular distances apart catch a button to form a tuft. This is done by boring two small holes throng-h the wood side by side, and, having- thread ed the eye of the button with a bit of twine, pass the- string- throug-h the holes and tie the ends tightly together at the under side of the lid. The material is to be tacked all around to the outer edge of the tops with ordinary carpet tacks driven close together. ext upholster the back, placing some curled hair behind the material anil give it a cushioned appearance and in turn drape the sides of the boxes. To do it nicely, shir several yards of the material on a cord and then tack the string fast all around the upper edges of the boxes. Around the top edge of each box and to hide the joint where the covering meets the draping material, fasten a piece of wide gimp with large oval headed upholsterer's tacks driven an even distance apart. This will lend a g-ood finish to complete a charming- and useful piece of furniture. The very attractive hang-ing cabinet shown here is also made of a couple of packing- eases. Two shallow oblong- boxec are need ed, and should be fastened securely tog-ether with screws, the end of one to the side of the other as the drawing shows. Around the top of the upright box a narrow strip of cornice molding, that can be obtained from a carpenter, is to be mitred and fashioned with nails, while the top edge of the other one may be left plain by way of con trast. Two shelves should be arranged- in the upright box and one in the other. The entire inside and outside of the boxes are painted with several suc cessive coats of some good color, light shades being preferable. Or they may be enameled, and when dry arrange a small brass rod at the top of each box from which a curtain may be suspended on rings. Silkoline or an inexpensive silk of an art color will wear nicely for drapery. Along- under the bottoms of the boxes a few hooks can be fastened from which teacups may be hung-, while A MODEL SHOE BOX. on the top some odd bits of bric-a-brac, if tastefully arranged, will lend great ly to the appearance. This cabinet ought to be securely fastened to the wall with long- screws passing- through the plaster and tak ing firm anchorag-e in the studding This fastening- should be particularly g-ood if the cabinet is to sustain such weight afs a inimbcr of bocks would amount to. J. ilarry Adams, in Chiear 8TS JJeSJtf FALL STYLES FOR Are Women Deserters? Mary L. Bislaud, in an exhaustive article entitled "Are Women Desert ers?" discusses the light housekeeping arrangements that so many women ars entering into, iliss Bisland says: "The average American business man begins life with the expectation of work in uninterruptedly till old age entitles him to honorable retirement. Marriage implies greater effort and steadier ap plication, and invalidism alone war rants any evasion of duty. Why should it not be so with women? Every girl knows that with the wedding ring she assumes many exacting obligations, chief among them the building up and preserving a successful, happy heme. Nothing but dc-ath or the most serious ill health can absolve her from the per formance of her part of the contract. If servants are aggravating and the details wearing, she has no more to bear than her husband iii his office. He encounters down town dragons every day, and in order to keep his family properly cared for he must, meet and overcome them. Her lot is no harder than his, and the wife and mother who without good causo exchanges heavy and honest for light and fraudulent housekeeping is little belter than a traitor and a desert er. The Vaterlaml Frauenvercin. A socict organized by German wom en is tho Vaterlaud Frauenverein, now numbering over 100,000 members. There are seven smaller similar societies, all with the same objects, which are: 1) To found creches and orphan asy lums; (2) to work in sewing schools, Sunday schools and similar institutions; (3) to help the deaf and dumb, blind and mentally deficient; (4) to assist in promoting homes for servants and worlc girls; (5) to succor those rendered desti tute by floods and fires; 6) to start and maintain toup kitchens and dinners for the poor; (7) to bestow Christmas gifts on the poor; (8) to care for patients at the lying in hospitals; (9) to find em ployment for old and invalid women and all out of work; (10) to found li .V.I braries for tho working classes; (11) support the families of invalids, soldiers and militia. Turned the Century Mark. Mrs. Lydia Caldwell Mulock, one of the most interest ilia: persons in this city, recently celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of her birth. She was bom in the town of Minnisink, Orange coun ty, Aug. 28, 1794, and the home of her son-in-law, Elisha R. Harding, in this city, where the old lady lives, was mad'; a very happy place by the presence ol many friends and descendants, who came there to tender their congratula tions to the centenarian. Mrs. Muloek's parents were Ashbell Caldwell and Silvia Stevens, who came to this country from England before the Revolution, settling first iu Massachu setts and later in Orango county. Her mother died at the age of 9-i. In the family there were a number of other children, but only two reached middle age. Middletown (N. Y. Dispatch. Woman's Equality With Mao. Woman should stand on a perfect equality with man in every sphere of intellectual endeavor, writes J. Mc Donald Osley in an article on "Post graduate Courses For Women" in The Ladies' Home Journal. No barriers should be placed in her path. Whether the ballot be woman's right or not, the privilege of postgraduate study unques tionably is, and neither she nor those who sympathize with her must be con tent until this is opened to her in the fullest degree. By way of conclusion a good way of bringing this about may be suggested: Iefc it be a condition of fu ture bequests or donations to the univer sities that they admit women to their postgraduate courses. Javanese Cloth. Javanese cloth is a new cotton fabric for drapery and hangings, the beauty of which certain artists have discovered. To the untutored mind it is a common stuff, inclining most frequently to an indigo or warm brown, with queer free hand designs straggling over it. It is made by hand in varying lengths of from two to three yards and more than a yard wide. These cloths are used by the Javanese, according to their sizes, for headdresses or skirts. By the uniuti ated American it is proposed that they be used for table covers, etc. New York Post. Illinois A(lrQciag, The Republicans nominated a woman for trustee of the University of Illinois. Tho Democrats did the same. The Pro hibitionists nominated two. It is almost certain that there will be one woman elected. There may be three.

There are too many men in all parties who are demanding that sho be recognized for her to bo de prived of her just rights for many more years. Eureka (Ills. J News. The Daushters and the Dames. A woman who thoroughly under stands the workings of both societies tho Colonial Dames and the Daughters of tho American Revolution says em phatically that there is no antagonism l)3tweeii them. They arc managed on different lines, that is all. The Dames try to keep their ranks very exclusive, while the Daughters eagerly welcome any woman with a just claim to mem bership. Women Life Saver. The Buffalo News says that a crew of women life tavers has been organized in that city by Admiral Edwin D. Ayres of the State Volunteer Life Saving corps, and thc-y will soon be equipped and ready for work. They are all gopd swimmers and good at the oars. TheSr names are Mrs. Ada B. iicCuo, Annio Bowen, Mrs. Layman, Josie Bowen and Kitty Andrews. What is called tho rational cycling costume for women is in danger of go i::g out of existence in Paris, for the prefect has caused letters to be written to some well known women cyclists, cautioning them that they are infring ing the law in wearing men's clothes. The latest fad of Parisian eccentric ity is that pet dogs iu Paris are now dyed to harmonize with the prevailing tint of their mistresses' boudoir. Two shades of violet are now the most popu lar coloring for white dogs. A rational dress association has been formed evv Zealand. Its object is to be "tho bringing about of that change iu woman's dress which her wider life and increased activity seem to demand.

Bardette Hartley, a popular young fireman on the Sar.ta Fe, was killed at Elmdale tbia morning in a freight train collision. Th collision was a "rear end" ona and occurred at 4:53 a. m. Extra traia engine 617, was standing at the depot It was eaatt-ound and the jway car was at the east end of the plat form when regular train No. U'-J, engine No. 794, Engineer McCauley, also east bound, pulled into the .station and ran into it. Elmdale is a small station six and one half miles west of S-trong City. The re ports at the general oCicsa are very meagre as yet and it is nat probable that a full report will be receive! until Sup erintendent Turner has taaJe a more thorough investigation. There was no oat in the way car and all except Hartley escape! serious in jury. The trains were badly wrecked. It is not known at the odicas who is to blame for the wreck. Tue extra traia should not have been standing there, General Superintendent Mudge says, without having sent a flagman. The engineer on the regular traia is to some extent excusable because tho accidant occurred on a curve and it 1j possible that he could not see the raar light of the train ahead until it was too late to stop. Burdette Hartley had beea a fireman on the Santa Fe for about eight months. Prior to that time he had been employ ed in the shops hers and had many friends. He was only twenty-three years of age and lived with his parents on Adams street until a few weeks ago, when he was trans ferred to Argentine, and has since been running out of that place over the Empo ria cut-olf to Newton. About two weeks ago his father, who was formerly employed in the shops here, left Ad ims street and moved to Lawrence, where the family now lives, and where the remains wiil probably bo interred. He was a member of A. O. U. W. lodge, No. 214, of this city. OIIDEU 3iISUMEIlST00D. J udga Foster Says Judge Cald weir's Order Uoesn't Interfei-e "With .District Judges, Judge Foster says that the orj;r filed in the United States circuit court yester day has no reference whatever to the duties of the United States district judges or the Santa Fe receivership cees. He says that the right of the district judges 'to make any orders within their respec tive district which can be mills by cir cuit judges is not questioned. He say t "It teems the order referred to wa simply intended as ii division of the court into three districts, and assigning certain territory to each of the several judges for all business which attor neys might choose to present, but preserving receiv erships now in charge of any judge from any change of management ty reason of the assignments under the order. If the order is re garded as a bid for receiver business, I would be glad to unload on the, circuit judge every receiver case ou the docket. But those who know Judge Caldwell will bear testimony that if at any time he desired to make orders iu any case, he has a way of making his wants known to attorneys and litigants without filtering them through the un reliable source of any subordinate at tache of the court. "So far as the personal movements of the district judges are concerned, it is aimply absurd to suppose they are an swerable to any one, us to when and how thay shall absent themselves from their district, and they are just as free to go and come as the circuit or supreme judges themselves." SHE REMAINED THE E. And N'ow Miss Barllctt Wanls $1.10,000 From Her Deail Fiancs" Kstate. Bostox, Sept. 22. One of the most pe culiar cases on record ia reported here. Miss Mary E. Burtlett, late of Maiden, has brought suit for f 150,00d damages against the estate of the late Dr. Houry J. Bigelow for alleged breach of promise of marriage, made by the doctor some time before his death. She aays that she fully belierea that the doctor would have kept his promise to wed her had not death intervened. After his death Mils Birtlett tried to recover from his executors $150,0)0 which she said t he doctor promised her if she remained true to him, but they re fused to surrender that sum. The suit will be tried in the Middlesex court next week. Dr. Ligelow was ona of the best known surgeons of the country. For mora than thirty years he was professor of surgery at Harvard, retiring from that placj in 1SS4. He was known through ut the world as erne of the leaders of anatomical research, and some of his works are reo oguized as standards.
